I already said Edging and Fell In Love but after a bit I decided they were correctly B sides and See You is too AVA for me I don't mind a little AVA in the albums going forward as long as the blink is as strong as it is on here. It is what it is lol
I'd cut* Anthem Part 3 and Dance With Me. (*cut a rug on the dancefloor to these bangers.) Really though, I'd cut Bad News and Turn This Off!, and again, wouldn't be stoked.
I’d cut Edging and When We Were Young Shame on you all for wanting to cut Bad News, which is arguably a top 5 OMT song!
I’ve listened to the album enough times with the 2 bonus songs in there that they’re just part of the album for me now. And I like them both!
I remember how my mates and I smoked some jazz cigarettes, and put on Love is Dangerous… waited for the chorus to kick in… and laughed so hard we literally cried. LUAAAAVVVVVVVVFFF, LUUUUAAAAVFFFF IS DANGEROUFSSSSSS Oh, those were the days
it's definitely Fell in Love and Edging because because I already replaced them with the bonus tracks and it works so well
Tom belittling the project everyone actually cares about (blink) to prop up the shit no one cares about (his movie). It was also definitely taken out of context and is in no way remotely serious haha.
Blink are sell outs (and suck now) for having 10 writers on the new album even though they've had 17 on the past album...

Few of Blink’s ’90s peers are still posting six-digit first weeks in the 2020s, especially after the elimination of ticket bundles from Billboard 200 sales calculations a few years ago. What’s one thing you think the band did particularly well with One More Time to make such a big debut week possible? Kyle Denis: Given that One More Time is the band’s first LP since the return of Tom DeLonge, there was already a level of inherent comeback hype baked into the record. Couple that with a smart, lengthy campaign that let each pre-release single run its course – both “Edging” and the title track topped Alternative Airplay – and you’re left with a rollout that is primarily concerned with activating their tried-and-true fanbase instead of radically changing their sound to court younger consumers. To that end, however, the social clout of Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian’s marriage likely brought a few new, younger listeners to the blink-182 fandom. Moreover, blink-182 (in its original configuration) came back at the right time considering the mainstream resurgence of pop-punk at the top of the decade. Josh Glicksman: An extended album rollout. Quickly following the reunion announcement last October with a new single stoked initial hype, and the band carried the momentum through album release day by touring across the world — including at a whole bunch of major festivals — and made sure everyone knew that a project was on the way. It’s not a strategy I’d suggest for major pop stars of the moment, but for a reunion project from a long-tenured band like Blink-182, allowing momentum to steadily grow over the course of a year paid huge dividends. Jason Lipshutz: The year-long rollout of the release — in which lead single “Edging” was released almost exactly one year prior to One More Time — proved surprisingly effective, since Blink was able to tour arenas and festivals (including Coachella and When We Were Young) for six months and galvanize their fan base ahead of the new album. Maybe One More Time doesn’t hit No. 1 if it was released last October, before hundreds of thousands of fans got to see their impressive headlining set and receive a reminder that, when it comes to their studio output, Mark, Tom and Travis rarely miss. And yet everyone complained ... haha
Fell In Love brings a smile to my face every time I hear it. Just classic stupid cheesy Blink lyrics about falling in love but done in a very age appropriate kind of way.
