The full Mark Hoppus of Blink-182 profile for GQ is now online: The diagnosis had prompted him to revisit other things too. When we initially spoke in September, he told me that he’d recently been going back over old Blink tracks—songs he’d played thousands of times—discovering that they’ve suddenly taken on new meaning. Of note was “Adam’s Song,” a somber number that Hoppus wrote in his 20s, from the imagined perspective of someone who felt suicidal but ultimately made the decision to carry on the hard work of living. “I’ve had a lot of thoughts about my own mortality, a lot of thoughts about what happens when I’m gone,” he said. “And so I’ve been listening to ‘Adam’s Song,’ thinking, Yeah, tomorrow holds such better days.” more Not all embedded content is displayed here.

really tender reflection from mark. so glad to hear he’s doing better. i love that all three of them have made amends.
Great article. Hats off to the journalist and it’s nice to hear the three of them have reconnected like they have. I want to see a proper blink reunion, either the 3 or 4 of them but for a band that means so much, it’s just good to know they’re good.
Yeah, because he publicly got married again earlier this year: Tom DeLonge Marries Fiancée Marie Just Days After Announcing Engagement | iHeart
