Elite Takes - this is jan Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 6 hours ago, Scott. said: There are two types of blink fans. The ones that prefer the untitled/due ranch non pop sound and then the teenybopper Enema/toypaj fans who probably listen to Taylor Swift and Olivia Rodrigo. Back in the day Enema and Toypaj were considered semi-poppy but if you listen to any of it today, even the poppier hits, they fucking rip. Was just jamming Give Me One Good Reason and it goes pretty hard. Finn was a master. Also you forgot us Neighborhood fans, who like to think introspectively, not follow the herd like sheep, and are overall just more alpha and have lots of sex.

I think you took my joke a bit too seriously. You can apply Dance With Me to anything you want to achieve or overcome in life - it doesn’t have to be about a girl or "dancing." The 'Olés' simply represent success or happiness. Life doesn’t always have to be dark, Jan. I love Neighborhoods. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Life doesn’t always have to be dark, Jan. I love Neighborhoods. Jan is neither an alpha or partaking in any sort of intercourse so I'd take all of his opinions with a pinch of salt. He just likes to talk. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champ182 Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 Just catching up here real quick: Dance With Me fucking rocks YDKWYG is great, but I agree the chorus is repetitive, and literally switching one different line in would have pulled it all together better. Ex) You don't know what you got/You don't know what you got/You don't know what you got til it's almost gone You don't know what you got/I wanna sail on a yacht/You don't know what you got til it's over (obviously not that actual line but something different right there haha) I have noooo idea how One Night Stand sounds like AVA? Olivia Rodrigo fucking rocks 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elite Takes - this is jan Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 Why the fuck is All In My Head such a grower. I hated this song first release, it fits nicely with the others now. Intro kind of annoys me still (zzommgg guitar explosion) but the rest of the song is fucking solid. The verses ride like an older blink song. "I gotta sickening feeling! We do this night after night but now I start to doubt it" is such a good delivery by Mark. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very relatable too. They should give you a writing credit. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elite Takes - this is jan Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 The You Don't Know What You've Got complaints are weird. It's so intentionally repetitive to drive the point accross, the name of the song is literally that. The fluctuations in the phrase are what make it. I don't believe it's this lazy chorus at all, it's an artistic choice and a good one. a break from the formula Plus it sounds very personal from both of them, Mark's lyrics obviously, and Tom belting his feelings that came from Mark's cancer scare 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elite Takes - this is jan Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 'Standing on the Shoulders of Giants, we will never let them divide us" is the best line from the "Part 2" though. The production being better makes such a big difference, it's a lot easier to listen to on repeat. OMT is a gem, but I think this bodes better moving forward. I could do songs like this till the end and be pretty damn enthused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elite Takes - this is jan Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 These songs are the closest to the continuation of DED we could have gotten? But with more modern/processed production. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott. Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 Seems to be a lot of love for One Night Stand online. A lot of these tracks are growers for sure. Take Me In is the weakest by far though. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
