I feel like since they wrote together so long, they habitually write for the other even though they’re not there. +44 had a bunch of vocals that make you think, “That would have been Tom” and the same with AvA, especially when Tom goes to a lower register you know?
exactly. the problem with blink nowadays is that mark and travis are trying to do two things at once. theyre trying to keep the legacy of blink alive while tryin to be trendy and popular and apply their music to middle schoolers. neither of those things are what people liked blink for. they liked it because they did whatever kind of music they wanted to do and felt passionate about. they seem to be doing the opposite now. when they try to honor the legacy of blink they just end up doing redundant gimics that people have seen for 20 years like do something new and exciting once in a while. but when they DO something new its not exciting or original and you end up with middle schoolers doing fornite dances in the music videos and song like "i really wish i hated you" and team up with the damn chainsmokers. they dont even write their own stuff anymore. people dont wanna see a subpar cover band version of their old stuff and a bunch of boomers trying to be hip. we wanna see a continuation of the band after neighborhoods. hell we wanna see a continuation of the band from self titled. and since blink refuses to try and do that and tom is all about that then i dont think tom should ever come back because its just gonna be a bad end result and tom and marks friendship will be in pieces again.
Lombardo Armenta yeah.... true... but they didnt exactly stop making good music without him. Tom is making some awesome music right now. you cant deny that. meanwhile.... Mark and Travis are kind of drifting here and there and hoping this blink album will be a winner.
Atlantis Wade that;s your opinion and I respect it. It's been a while since I liked a tom delonge's song. It's a matter of taste I guess but I pick blink 182 right now over this everyday. Don't get me wrong, it's not bad music, I just prefer the new blink 182 tunes. Peace
Lombardo Armenta no its cool. it is about taste agreed. Its just I really like those little melodies Tom plays in songs like Tunnels in the background along with that whole echoey effect of the guitar and all.... it just contributes to this really uplifting mood that i like. I like blink too. I listen to neighborhoods just as much. Its just i find that I lean more towards the stuff that Tom had a heavier hand in than Mark. And I wonder if those little catchy guitar melodies that Tom is so good at doing will show up in the new blink stuff.... because i do think its those little nuances that give the music that extra dimension. I like their old simple punk stuff too like Enema of the state.... but you can only do so many of those until it gets a tad boring/repetitive. i really like the little pinches of salt and pepper Tom is adding to his music. peace out.
Lombardo Armenta I really like Bored to Death.... REALLY. Havent heard the rest of the album yet as its not available on iTunes last time i checked. just hope the other songs are just as good.
I'm glad too. I'm just saying this one seems more like a Tom's style of Blink song. Pretty sure Tom composed this one. This doesn't seem like something Ilan would do.
See what you did Tom!? How dare you leave an iconic pop punk band (whose fans pressure you to repeat a classic style) and somehow win me over with an adrenaline-rushing 90s-inspired car jam!! A pox on you!!
Love it when Angels release a song with serious punch. This song and Paralyzed on the Dream Walker have been a credit to all involved in their respective creation. Banging tunes!
Lyrics: Eyes wait Go Lights don't haunt through the night Everybody's coming to be shown (we see it in your eyes) Just like that feeling when you run (we see it every time) Come close find someone that you know (we all enjoy the pain) This spark is burning up the firehouse again Your lie When you see it, do you overload? Do you feel like you should close your eyes? Everybody to the great unknown Feet first, jumping in front of the line When you see it, do you overload? Do you feel it?

This song could be easily a blink 182 song great hit. I know Matt skiba is a good musician, but it's not just about play guitar and sing well, it is about CREATIVITY and write awsome songs. Matt Skiba doesn't have the creativity and imagination that Tom has
+Jose Concina yeah, the only upgrade i see in skibba is that they perform way better now, but im sure this new blink album that is about to out will be mostly marks songs, it will very similar to plus 44. Still it will be a good album, but you can sense that something is missing in blink. the sad part is that tom is not the missing part anymore either :/
I agree! I never liked blink-182s mew music with Matt as much as i liked it with Tom. And i didn’t understand why. But I’ve realized it’s because to me it seems like most of their songs have the same format, it’s kind of quieter during the verses and the choruses go loud. Tom brought such a unique creativity to the band that i don’t think anyone could replace.
Eyes Wait Go Lights Don't Haunt Through The Night Everybody's comin' to be shown (We see it in their eyes) Just like that feeling when you run (We see it everytime) Come close find someone that you know (We all enjoy the pain) This spark is burning up the firehouse again, again No lie, lie, lie...

Yup, Mark's schtick is acting immature and like a 16 year old. I'm 30 now and enjoy this more mature music, but I've always been a fan of Tom so I like AvA over new Blink with Skiba pretending to be Tom.
+george Lopez He's filling in the seat of Tom. He's learning all of Tom's riffs and lyrics. He's not deliberately acting like Tom, but he's like the weird Step Dad who's hard for the fans to get used to. They just want Tom
This song is perfect for blink. Everybody's comin' to be shown (Mark) (We see it in their eyes) (Tom) Just like that feeling when you run (Mark) (We see it everytime) (Tom) Come close find someone that you know (Mark) (We all enjoy the pain) (Tom) This spark is burning up the firehouse again, again (Both harmonising) No lie, lie, lie...

Oh my God! You are so right Mark and Tom killing it on the vocal lines and Travis going bonkers on the drums at light speed this would have been an amazing song for Blink 182 to do It maybe could have had a melodic guitar/bass break down like WMAA?
why are you comparing him with blink?? maybe you are still butt hurt because tom didnt want to do blink stuff and he got what he deserves - being kicked out
mark is stuck in the past, he continued blink for the money look at toms net worth and then look at mark and travis LOL! toms doing his thing and he likes it, i easily prefer his tunes over new blink trying to sound like old blink but sounding like good charlotte did 5 yrs ago instead. FAIL
Haha I'm not butt hurt dude, I was purely saying that seeing as Tom has been portrayed as the bad guy in all of blink saga, when you look at the music ( and in Tom's case awesome books and films) that both bands are now making, for me this is far better. In fact I'm pleased he left blink for a while to focus on AVA and other things as blink without Tom is starting to sound too forced. If this is the consequence of not having Tom in blink then I'm more than cool with it
And I compared him to blink because the rabbit hole had just come out, and the band that Tom had so say ruined according to some naive fans is not creating anything near as good as this. It was a commitment to Tom.
I didn't like the song at first but I found myself coming back. I know not everyone likes the darker vibes in Angels and Airwaves these days but I love them.
Tom: everybody's coming to be shown
Mark: we see it in their eyes
would have been awesome
I feel like since they wrote together so long, they habitually write for the other even though they’re not there. +44 had a bunch of vocals that make you think, “That would have been Tom” and the same with AvA, especially when Tom goes to a lower register you know?

Nah
Who here besides me has been listening to AVA since 2006??
Same
+Amanda “Mandy” LY Since The Adventure I've been all over AvA
I have !
meeee
Ava has my soul ❤ gets me every time. Makes me feels every emotion at the same time. From sad to defeated to hopeful to believing to being saved.
Tom is an absolute master song-writer I swear, everything he does is gold and that's an understatement
Ya..
I agree!!!
one of the best songs ever!
Its a Nice tune... Good to see Tom is finally using the electric guitar and distortion again.
Tom was the genius of Blink 182. The guy makes the catchiest tunes ever.
The genius of blink 182 was Jerry Finn
Lombardo Armenta yeah.... true... but they didnt exactly stop making good music without him. Tom is making some awesome music right now. you cant deny that. meanwhile.... Mark and Travis are kind of drifting here and there and hoping this blink album will be a winner.
Atlantis Wade that;s your opinion and I respect it. It's been a while since I liked a tom delonge's song. It's a matter of taste I guess but I pick blink 182 right now over this everyday. Don't get me wrong, it's not bad music, I just prefer the new blink 182 tunes. Peace

that point when the chorus kicks in is just GAHHHH sooooo gooooodd!!!
Angels and Airwaves - Overload Guitar Cover ua-cam.com/video/_ECpxIVQclo/v-deo.html
I love this one. Even though this is from AVA, it feels like something Tom would have done if he was still in Blink 182. Anyway this one is epic.
I'm glad too. I'm just saying this one seems more like a Tom's style of Blink song. Pretty sure Tom composed this one. This doesn't seem like something Ilan would do.
Oh I get it. maybe that's why this one is much more different from the The Dream Walker and ...Of Nightmares.
it reminds me of slowering the Natives
The post chorus part sounds like pre chorus in Asthenia to me
See what you did Tom!? How dare you leave an iconic pop punk band (whose fans pressure you to repeat a classic style) and somehow win me over with an adrenaline-rushing 90s-inspired car jam!! A pox on you!!

Love it when Angels release a song with serious punch. This song and Paralyzed on the Dream Walker have been a credit to all involved in their respective creation. Banging tunes!
That opening rift with the guitar and the bass kicks in so punk rock. Love the new music!
this songs chorus and new world's chorus are absolute perfection. Tom's game is way up!
yup toms songwriting is always good
Tom even said that he wrote this EP in record time. I think he tries too hard sometimes but when he doesnt overthink it we get gems like this.
Anyone else have this song on repeat since it came out?
Lyrics:
Eyes wait
Go
Lights don't haunt through the night
Everybody's coming to be shown
(we see it in your eyes)
Just like that feeling when you run
(we see it every time)
Come close find someone that you know
(we all enjoy the pain)
This spark is burning up the firehouse again
Your lie
When you see it, do you overload?
Do you feel like you should close your eyes?
Everybody to the great unknown
Feet first, jumping in front of the line
When you see it, do you overload?
Do you feel it? 'Cause you bide your time
Every minute is an episode
A-typical, dramatic end to the night
Everybody is waiting on the rain
(we see it in your eyes)
Held down and high above the fold
(we see it every time)
Come close, find anyone you can
(we all enjoy the pain)
This spark will burn right down the fucking house again
When you see it, do you overload?
Do you feel like you should close your eyes?
Everybody to the great unknown
Feet first, jumping in front of the line
When you see it, do you overload?
Do you feel it? 'Cause you bide your time
Every minute is an episode
A-typical, dramatic end to the night
he knows every single of art...
musics, lyrics, novel, film
Tom Delonge!!!!
sick ass guitar tom
+mark gonzalez INDEED
This song could be easily a blink 182 song great hit.
I know Matt skiba is a good musician, but it's not just about play guitar and sing well, it is about CREATIVITY and write awsome songs.
Matt Skiba doesn't have the creativity and imagination that Tom has
+Jose Concina I totally agree with you. Matt is great but Tom has that little something that makes him different than everyone else.
still hope they do well though, I'm always happy for more good music
+Jose Concina yeah, the only upgrade i see in skibba is that they perform way better now, but im sure this new blink album that is about to out will be mostly marks songs, it will very similar to plus 44. Still it will be a good album, but you can sense that something is missing in blink. the sad part is that tom is not the missing part anymore either :/
Matt it's too dark and tom creating happy song always
I agree! I never liked blink-182s mew music with Matt as much as i liked it with Tom. And i didn’t understand why. But I’ve realized it’s because to me it seems like most of their songs have the same format, it’s kind of quieter during the verses and the choruses go loud.
Tom brought such a unique creativity to the band that i don’t think anyone could replace.
Eyes
Wait
Go
Lights
Don't

Intro: "I make the lights burn on through the night."
+Ava Saturday link ?
+Ava Saturday aha it is new, i checked it yesterday:)) this is new post :)
+Ava Saturday Just fixed it ;)
this one and voyager are just incredible with more guitar and rock sound than usually !!!
So much power and kick in this song. Really like it Tom. Good job man!
By far my favorite song by AvA, maybe favorite song period.
What a beautiful song!!!!
Yes I love the guitar tone in this!!!
this is far better than I expected. A great,catchy,progressive and melodic EP. Can't stop listening
What a piece of art song. It's so beautiful I love it.
This song is incredible! So unrated! I’ve listened to it hundreds of times
🎶🎶AWA🎶🎶
I miss the old days :/
This is incredible and I love you guys
this song LIVE for the North American Tour 2019! Please Tom!
Did you see them in 2019 yet... I caught Seattle and Portland, this tune was EPIC!!!!!
Better than Bored To Death
I agree, but I like bored to death
Bored to death is pretty boring I’ll take boring over it
AvA is so amazing, all of their material is great. If more songs are like this EP I'll be so happy. I love this EP more than the new blink 182 album.
Tom has the catchy melodies. Blink will struggle without Tom's talent
Yup, Mark's schtick is acting immature and like a 16 year old. I'm 30 now and enjoy this more mature music, but I've always been a fan of Tom so I like AvA over new Blink with Skiba pretending to be Tom.
+george Lopez He's filling in the seat of Tom. He's learning all of Tom's riffs and lyrics. He's not deliberately acting like Tom, but he's like the weird Step Dad who's hard for the fans to get used to. They just want Tom
+Dim Nimrod no, they dont want tom IN the band. and matt has a big carreer. he is who he's been his whole life but in another band.
+Tomas s mark, Tom, and Travis are all talking again, he says he talks to Travis almost everyday
thats definetely a lie hahaha
The guitar at 1:25 sounds like "time to say goodbye" by simple plan which is amazing
I like the drummer.
Man they've still got it and this song shows it!
Tom has a gift for writing catchy hooks!
It's obviously AVA, but the Guitar is very 90's sounding. Very well done.
good song... Tom Delonge you are still my hero
even after leaving the blink
I love you
every fucking album is fucking legendary. AVA FOREVER
Tom is amazing!! blink is my all time fav band and Tom is the best!!!
Overload, An Endless Summer, and New World, they've been the best songs by tom at this point
Ole ole ole ole!!!!
This would have been a killer Blink song
Tom has the magic.
Oh my gosh i didnt even know this was out! Yes this is what we love about tom!!!
I have only been listening to them maybe 3 years but they never know how to disappoint Amen
Best artist of musical,,great chord and lyric
Listening to AVA takes you somewhere else. There's some magic in their songs, especially The Adventure!!
Chills! Incredible stuff
Badass song Tom! This and "Suburban Kings" gave us all songs we could love. Keep doing your thing. Your fans will always love you.
just listened to Bored to Death. but this is wayyyyyy better in my opinion. Tom you rock
Best AVA song in years. Seriously.
One of the best ava song
i love that old school angels riff style. and the Delay riff too. keep it rock Tom !
this song is so good
Thanks for this little piece of magic.
I really like the idea of an EP more than an album
This is so good, how doesnt it not even have a million views tf
this is the AVA that I love right here
Tom. Congratulation. Brilliant!
AWESOME!
maybe the best ava song ever!
great song! cant wait to hear more
Just amazing! Im loving the faster punk vibe I have been hearing since Deamwalker. Needed to mix it up, and it is working great.
One of AVA's best songs in a while. I freakin' love this!
This spark is burning up the firehouse again, no lie lie lie lie...ahhh so catchy!
I love this song
This song is perfect for blink.

Oh my God!
You are so right
Mark and Tom killing it on the vocal lines
and Travis going bonkers on the drums at light speed
this would have been an amazing song for Blink 182 to do
It maybe could have had a melodic guitar/bass break down like WMAA?
@@vi0letcr1me please
Yes
wow tom with every piece of art, you follow my life, thanks for be the music of my life.
Me encanta 😊
My fav song of this EP. Really enjoy guitar solo.
So awesome
may be its the only band of rock that i listening, thanks tom and rubin
Yes Tom Delonge, I overload from time to time
i actually loved listening to the California album, for a couple of months. Tom's songs on the other hand gets better with time.
love this song, was so excited for it when the chorus was first teased.
I loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooved it!!!!!!!!!
Yes. Love them
I love this song...
Oh man.. This one is so delicious song.. Yummy.. Very determined to be Ava's soul
I really like this
Dios! Tom eres la leche!!!
I love overload
Yep...... This is better than a song about rabbit holes.
or you're still butt hurt that Tom is no longer in Blink.
why are you comparing him with blink?? maybe you are still butt hurt because tom didnt want to do blink stuff and he got what he deserves - being kicked out
mark is stuck in the past, he continued blink for the money look at toms net worth and then look at mark and travis LOL! toms doing his thing and he likes it, i easily prefer his tunes over new blink trying to sound like old blink but sounding like good charlotte did 5 yrs ago instead. FAIL

And I compared him to blink because the rabbit hole had just come out, and the band that Tom had so say ruined according to some naive fans is not creating anything near as good as this. It was a commitment to Tom.
I like the color combination
Best AVA effort to date.
It's more blink then their new song.
Or I fucking love Delonge. Don't care, guyz
+Rude Boy ROFL, this sounds nothing like Blink182 lmao
Kenshin0011 idk it sounds straight from Dogs Eating Dogs tbh
Best ever I love these eps!
Amazing Song!!!
Great!
Been listening to this band since it started
This song always plays in my work and I always knew it was Tom but I finally looked it up to confirm, this man never disappoints.
It's like your moving into the next chapter of your life. And have music that completely matches the new you
awesome tom!🤘🏻🚀🤘🏻🚀🤘🏻🚀
Tom. This is so surprising! You Rock!
great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i need more AYA!!!!!!!!!!!!
AVA is back!
Good man tom. This is back on track. Sounds really good.
I didn't like the song at first but I found myself coming back. I know not everyone likes the darker vibes in Angels and Airwaves these days but I love them.
