Your Perfect ONE MORE TIME...

Recommended Posts

what songs would you add from the dlx? which would you delete from the original? and why?

here's my improved OMT for my tastes.

  1. anthem pt 3
  2. dance with me
  3. every other weekend
  4. terrified
  5. can't go back
  6. more than you know
  7. if you never left
  8. YDKWYG
  9. bad news
  10. blink wave
  11. cut me off
  12. turpentine
  13. OMT
  14. other side
  15. childhood

i tried to be conservative because honestly OMT is a solid album with good sequencing, but there's just a few songs -- fell in love, WWWY, turn this off, etc -- that miss the mark. in WWWY's case, i feel like if you never left better captures that old-school throwback sound, and in terms of cure pastiches, every other weekend is vastly superior to fell in love. i've never really loved edging, and the rest of the bonus tracks are too spotty to be interspersed with the OG track listing. still, i really like this version of the album! and it keeps it a tight 45 minutes, on par with the original. you might could even trim other side or cut me off from this list too to have a tighter record.

Less is more.  Difficult cutting some but:

 

1. Anthem 3

2. Every Other Weekend

3. Bad News

4. If You Never Left

5. Turpentine

6. Terrified

TTO

7. One Night Stand

8. All In My Head

9. Everyone Everywhere

10. Edging

11. Can't Go back

12. YDKWYG

 

bonus: MTYK

bonus: Otherside

 

That album legit would have made me cry.  I guess I did cry a few times at OMT initial release.  But..a bit harder.

Leaving out More Than You Know but still having Edging is criminal. But then I remember you saying ‘Carousel is the worst blink song of all time. Even travis’ drumming on it is extremely poor for his standard’. So it all adds up.

Jan's been showing his whole ass lately and it's one of the worst things I've ever seen.

I love MTYK, it just doesn’t fit well within the album. Which is why I put it in as a bonus.  🤷‍♂️ didn’t say the following either.

Not sure why I responded.

You guys are just hypocritical 🫶

You guys like a Disney princess song and I’m not allowed to like Edging?  Have you guys ever thought about joining a cult or one of those mega churches?  Might be your calling.

Despite including 17 songs, it wouldn't be overly long since about half of the tracks clock in under the 3-minute mark. The original OMT was already quite sprawling and about showcasing the different sounds across blink's career with one or two curveballs (e.g. "Childhood" psychedelic feel and the chiptune outro)... That said, I simply chose the songs I consider stronger with a sequencing I believe would work.

Getting all this stuff was amazing, but next time I hope they take a different approach: a more focused record that feels less like a collection of songs and leans less on throwbacks (blink has already mastered pop punk). Even if it's just 10 tracks total, either:

1. Go full new wave with more prominent synths - I think Paramore's After Laughter is a great example of a band from their scene doing it so well. Add some somber post-punk stuff like "All Of This" and expand on "Childhood" maybe...

or

2. Something heavier, post-hardcore/emo-ish like Box Car...

Gonna have to play around with this a bit. I think the sequencing of the first 7 tracks is virtually perfect, so it’ll be difficult to move things around without breaking the flow.  The back half of the album doesn’t feel quite as thought out, so I’ll probably make more changes there to squeeze in some part 2 tracks.

I wanna put Dance With Me & Bad News in there but I think this is my favourite track list i've created. Those two just don't fit in my opinion. Since the self titled album I've always preferred the second song to be BCR styled tracks and the 3rd song to be the slower chilled out ones like I Miss You, After Midnight etc

I might need to work on the sequencing a bit more, but this is a tracklist I'm (mostly) happy with:

1. No Fun

2. Anthem Part 3

3. Dance With Me

4. If You Never Left

5. Terrified

6. One More Time

7. More Than You Know

8. When We Were Young

9. Everyone Everywhere

10. One Night Stand

11. Blink Wave

12. Bad News

13. All In My Head

14. Turpentine

15. Can't Go Back

16. Other Side

17. Childhood

I know some might view this as too long, but I wanted to keep it at the same song count... plus with what some might view as filler others would be bummed to see missing. Though I did remove/replace songs I wasn't that fond of and the joke/interludes felt unnecessary to include so I replaced them with full songs. The frustrating thing is I want to include "Every Other Weekend" as well, but I already feel bad having the set be 17 full songs so one more would feel like it was pushing it.
