Do you like Blink-182?

Why or why not?

Just felt like randomly asking this question.

I think Blink-182 is one of the best bands that exist after Green Day.

    Of course I do, they're my favorite band! And yeah, Green Day's fkn awesome, but blink-182 imo surpasses them. Just my opinion.

    To anyone who said they don't like blink-182, give me one good reason. There's no reason not to. And at the guy who said they have bad songs like any other artist, name one. I will point out the good. In fact, if I could be stuffed, I would write down every song by them and then write the pros about them.

    Reasons why I love blink-182.

    1. They have songs you can relate to. They write as if you're their best friend. You can rely on them to make you happier.

    2. They're HILARIOUS. From their joke songs, to how they act live, they're amazing.

    3. They're talented. Travis is a beast on the drums. Mark can stretch his fingers very far on the bass. Mark is VERY good on the bass for someone who taught himself. And to all those hundreds of people who say Tom can't play guitar, take a listen to Wasting Time. LOOK AT HIS FINGERS. AND TELL ME HE CAN'T PLAY.

    4. They're hot. Especially Tom when he had his lip ring. Tom is the only celebrity who can rock the lip ring. Travis is the only one who can rock dreadlocks, and Mark is the only one who looks cool with purple hair :)

    5. They spill their life into their songs. Blink did this ever since they started, from songs like Romeo and Rebecca to Apple Shampoo, they do it well. But then Taylor Swift comes along and makes a big deal about it "You mess with me, I write a song about you!" Honey, blink-182 did it probably before you were born.

    6. They have hearts. Did you SEE what they did with the money they were given to make a new music video?! They gave it to hobos, threw it off buildings, helped people on the streets get up, get a life and get a new look. They never fail to amaze me.

    7. Their songs are catchy. Each and every one of them. From their earlier songs like Reebok Commercial to later songs like Feeling This, they've maintained it throughout their whole careers.They should have more fans than they should. All the songs that come out today (pop/rap whatever crap) all sound the same! It's so annoying. There's no such thing as catchy when it comes to modern music anymore.

    8.They won't grow up. That's what I LOVE about them. Even though people say they've matured, we know they haven't. If you've seen them ive recently, you'd know that Tom and Mark make THE raunchiest jokes they've EVER made. Tom caused an uproar with his joke about going down on Barack Obama. I just laughed.

    and that's all I can write, no more characters allowed. But I LOVE Blink and can't wait till their new album!

    And

    I like some stuff from Cheshire Cat, a lot of stuff from Dude Ranch, and some stuff from Enema of the State. They're one of the better pop punk bands IMO, them and The Offspring are about the only pop punk bands I like.

    they were fun for the 10 minutes they deserved.

    they are not even close to the best band that ever existed, but neither are Green Day.

    I loved them when Dude Ranch came out and I thought they were the ultimate (I was 9 when it came out), and I bought all of their albums up until Take Off Your Pants and Jacket. If they came out today I can honestly say that I wouldn't like them, but they will forever be sentimental to me.

    no, they exploit the capitalist system that the punk rock movement is so vehemently against.

    @Kenny: never knew blink 182 fans were worthless, racist, homophobes. go to hell.

  • 1 decade ago

    Yeah I do.

    The people that said they don't above me (or below) are probably either: over the age of 30, black, gay, stuck up, or just douches who expect music to be full of inspiration when most people like an artist for how they sound.

    I like their style and how they play.

    They have funny songs, serious songs, songs that are catchy, and songs that suck, just like every musical artist in the world.

  • Nope.
