As someone who has actually been through war at a young age and who has seen what it does to people, they hit the mark with this song. Tom's emotion makes me almost cry because it is exactly what it feels like when you've actually experienced what he's singing about in real life. "Why won't you tell me that it's almost over? Why must this tear my head inside out?" I feel this song in every cell in my body
@@Lyris-XVII I know what you're talking about, but that's not for the snare. They did do things like that for a lot of the weirder-sounding percussion bits on this album though.
Cried the first time listening to this song. Never been into AVA, huge Blink fan since late 90s, but never gave Ava a try. Change my opinion, ava is criminally underrated!
It was also quite literally about the War in Iraq, because Tom's brother was a soldier in that war at the time this album released. It was a pointless war that should have ended before it even began, and Tom has been vocally anti-war for decades.
Saw them in concert a decade ago, early 20s - now I’m a mum and feel like a different person to that 20 year old. Still love the music though, that doesn’t change!
Thomas Delodge is the best..." Do you want this... believe" " Why won't you tell me that it's almost over" it has more meaning to me than anyone else will ever know...
I fucking love this band. I hit many low points and even lowest of the lows (several times) but I found this band at the right time and I'm still here. I wish it was the cure-all to my mental health, but that takes a lot of fucking work and at least I have support 🤟❤️
Holy crap, such an eerie song: And the houses laid out like targets With the deafening sound We watched them all go down And the families now useless bodies They lay still black and blue A gift from us to you
Never realized Tom's voice really still sounded like the blink days vox. But when this came out I thought his voice was so different... Anyways still an amazing album. RIP critter
I remember thinking too "Wow, he sounds quite mature here." He was purposely trying to sing lower and more from his diaphragm which helps, but this was definitely the last record we heard that real trademark Tom pitch.
I’ve never listened to this band, but my teacher likes them and he would play their music in class. After hearing this one a few times I thought it was really catchy and here I am!
I liked the music when I was younger and thought this was analogous to my not-so-bad life that I thought was terrible Today their music resonates with me on the information war we're fighting. The largest psy-op and sting operation are in progress right now and it's great to be alive
That rare time a real warm beautiful smell of nature passes by you and fills you with some amazing new feelings that get you through a while longer here even though it is beyond terrible
The ocean is on fire, the sky turned dark again as the boats came in And the beaches, streched out with soldiers With their arms and guns it has just begun Believe You want this Believe I want this too Why won't you tell me that It's almost over Why must this tear my head Inside out And the houses laid out like targets With the deafening sound We watched them all go down And the families now useless bodies They lay still black and blue A gift from us to you Believe, You want this Believe, I want this too Why won't you tell me that It's almost over Why must this tear my head Inside out Believe Believe You want this too Why won't you tell me that It's almost over Why must this tear my head Inside out Why won't you tell me that It's almost over Why must this tear my head Inside out
2022 still here , forever and ever , never forget , why won t u tell me that it s over , 'cause it will never end , scream more strong , let me feel how u know again , u re our flag , our summers and every sunset during our endless day.
I really liked Tom's singing voice not only on this song but on the whole WDNTW album, I sometimes wonder in an alternate universe what it would be like if his singing voice stayed this way for the rest of his life.
Hi there. :) In all courteousness, you are going on tour: that is superiorly AWESOME! :) Congratulations and we hope you have an excellent, most excellent time. The Paradise Rock Club is a pre-eminent venue as well. Wise choice with that, great acoustics, great feel. If you have not played it or attended as a fan for good music, you will still be confidently in your own skin throughout the club, truly. Congratulations again! We love you--may the lightness follow you! Thx! :D 🐿 🍳
They had a video with soldiers storming a beach but the most popular vid for this song when it came out was a Eureka Seven tribute vid for some reason XD
That video on the beach is not Saving Private Ryan like Curtis said. It is an AVA video for this song. It's at the start of the Start the Machine DVD Documentary they made for the making of this album. You can catch it here /watch?v=kVLytKp_Uj0 , the video for the War starts at 4:44
I remember listening to this album everyday with my husband when we first started dating We've been together for 14 years. I can hardly believe it. Our favorite song was A Little's Enough.
Who agrees this is one of the greatest songs of all time
Me
not me
Me
all thier songs are tho
Absolutely.
Still hits as strong as ever
even willy wonka likes angels and airwaves
Still hits hard
“WHY must this…
TEAR my *yead…*
IN-siiide ouuut…”
It’s surprising the he used the correct pronunciation on this one lol!

"Why won't you tell me that it's almost over? Why must this tear my head inside out?"
I feel this song in every cell in my body
Its 2019 and I still listen to this daily, such a massive drum sound
Dude, same
2006 when it all started.
Magic all round
The snare is actually a draw being shut and they distorted it
@@Lyris-XVII I know what you're talking about, but that's not for the snare. They did do things like that for a lot of the weirder-sounding percussion bits on this album though.
The passion in his voice in the chorus is sooo good
I love this song and It makes me feel like I want to throw a party in my house for this rock band like it was 1995. 🤘🏾😃🤘🏾
Opening riff still to this day is an insannnne groove.
Yeah. I love this opening riff
Atom's drum's are so epic in this song!!! 🥁
Cried the first time listening to this song. Never been into AVA, huge Blink fan since late 90s, but never gave Ava a try. Change my opinion, ava is criminally underrated!
One of their best
Its great but wouldnt say its there best
*their
*their
*their
*their
I interpret this song as describing the war we fight within ourselves in our minds and souls. It’s beautiful.
It was also quite literally about the War in Iraq, because Tom's brother was a soldier in that war at the time this album released.
It was a pointless war that should have ended before it even began, and Tom has been vocally anti-war for decades.
I just realised how much this sounds like box car racer
watch the world by BCR
Faaaaacts
2 different bands, same front-man singer ;)
@@Seabee156 Well Tom did say that AVA was a continuation of Box Car Racer
Josh Hanson So you mean to tell me that for 13 years this was Boxcar Racer?! HOLY SHIT!
Always have been a fan of this song ever since 07-08 when it was the soundtrack to the reality show MTV's Two-a-days at Hoover High
man im surpirsied this hasnt got more looks! its where i got the song from fuck lol those bangs they had
This came out 2005
i miss that show
Every time I go down to Orange Beach, Alabama I play this once I hit the Birmingham/Hoover area on I-65🤌 Will be doing that in 12 days
Saw them in concert a decade ago, early 20s - now I’m a mum and feel like a different person to that 20 year old. Still love the music though, that doesn’t change!
Thomas Delodge is the best..." Do you want this... believe" " Why won't you tell me that it's almost over" it has more meaning to me than anyone else will ever know...
Tom "Shack" DeLodge
delodge
To me this is a continuation of "Aliens Exists"
Isn’t this song in the same spirit than « Your Bestfriend is not your girlfriend »? About his buddy’s girl that treated him poorly or something
@@KeertikaAndFallenTree Exactly...I mean to put that line in too... cause I've always said that...." Your best friend is not your girlfriend"
I fucking love this band. I hit many low points and even lowest of the lows (several times) but I found this band at the right time and I'm still here. I wish it was the cure-all to my mental health, but that takes a lot of fucking work and at least I have support 🤟❤️
❤❤❤
I can feel his emotions in the chorus
Holy crap, such an eerie song:
And the houses laid out like targets
With the deafening sound
We watched them all go down
And the families now useless bodies
They lay still black and blue
A gift from us to you
😴
This comment came up right on cue when I was listening lol crazy
Angels and Airwaves ahead of their time it will be years and years before credit is given.
Still hits hard. Love this song
I spent all day trying to remember this song! So happy I found it!!
Loser
A classic :)
Oh ohhhh ohh oh ohhh
Somebody used this song to piece together clips of the show band of brothers and it was absolutely epic
This songs reminds me of Two-A-Days
Joshua Foxworth It is the opening theme song to Two-A-Days.
Yes
I love the part towards the end starting from 3:02- 3:22. something special about it to me.
Wow, this album was such a big part of my life a long time ago. I completely forgot about it, and just found it again. All the feels.
2021 still here for the memories of 2006
Gawd damn 😢
one of my all time ava faves.
Thoughts on 'do it for me now'?
@@zXHawkxEyeXz pretty good
2024 and still a banger
Never realized Tom's voice really still sounded like the blink days vox. But when this came out I thought his voice was so different... Anyways still an amazing album. RIP critter
I remember thinking too "Wow, he sounds quite mature here." He was purposely trying to sing lower and more from his diaphragm which helps, but this was definitely the last record we heard that real trademark Tom pitch.
I love the war such a powerful song
I’ve never listened to this band, but my teacher likes them and he would play their music in class. After hearing this one a few times I thought it was really catchy and here I am!
Nice. You make me feel old. But i am now acceptinged it. :D
This was a good song
I liked the music when I was younger and thought this was analogous to my not-so-bad life that I thought was terrible
Today their music resonates with me on the information war we're fighting.
The largest psy-op and sting operation are in progress right now and it's great to be alive
i can never decide which song is my favorite of theirs bc i love them all so much
2021 and I am stoked I found this again
You should hear some of there other songs
This song is my banger🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 I can’t believe how good this song would be yes if I was in there, but it’s one of the greatest songs of all time
well. Here we are. The ocean is on fire.
Throwback to two days at Hoover high anyone?
Who's listening to this amazing song and group in 2021 me
Believe!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Still think this is one of the greatest songs oh the feels
Aliens baby!
That rare time a real warm beautiful smell of nature passes by you and fills you with some amazing new feelings that get you through a while longer here even though it is beyond terrible
so powerful
Amazing group very underrated! 🌈💯👽👽👽💚
The drum and guitar effect was the reason why im still listen to this song for my daily life, thanks Tom i love this song 🤘
Damn this song still smacks
"the ocean is on fire" this song was ahead of its time
Why? The Atlantic is rapidly cooling.
@@daddyof3gaming522 I think when I wrote this comment there was like an oil spill that caught on fire in the ocean
Greatest Hits
The ocean is on fire, the sky turned dark again as the boats came in
And the beaches, streched out with soldiers
With their arms and guns it has just begun
Believe
You want this
Believe
I want this too
Why won't you tell me that
It's almost over
Why must this tear my head
Inside out
And the houses laid out like targets
With the deafening sound
We watched them all go down
And the families now useless bodies
They lay still black and blue
A gift from us to you
Believe,
You want this
Believe,
I want this too
Why won't you tell me that
It's almost over
Why must this tear my head
Inside out
Believe
Believe
You want this too
Why won't you tell me that
It's almost over
Why must this tear my head
Inside out
Why won't you tell me that
It's almost over
Why must this tear my head
Inside out
Beautiful 👌
Frank Ocean

2022 still here , forever and ever , never forget , why won t u tell me that it s over , 'cause it will never end , scream more strong , let me feel how u know again , u re our flag , our summers and every sunset during our endless day.
i used to listen to this at like 8 years old while i played call of duty and it got me into this style of music
The best song by Ava
Tom is truly wonderful human ❤️
I really liked Tom's singing voice not only on this song but on the whole WDNTW album, I sometimes wonder in an alternate universe what it would be like if his singing voice stayed this way for the rest of his life.
Imagine a song like Overload or Kiss and Tell with this voice... maaaan
Really sad because he is a fucking amazing song writter.
I'm so grateful that i saw that making of dvd piece.
I now appreciate more the drum pieces.
Didn't knew how well written they were.
Of all the spin-offs from Blink, this is one of the best
I love this song!!! The guitar sound great!!!
Fav song from the album.
☮
this song is so fucking good
I love this
nice
Dang this is a great song.
Great song
my favorite song in this record
Angel's and airwaves greatest
2021 and the song is hitting more and more.
I love this group😍
Amazing!
Simply always i loved that song.
And the houses laid out like targets with the deafening sound we watch them all go down
Such a great Song!!!
Haven’t heard this in forever, still good
Somehow, better than The Adventure. :D
Blue angels
Best song

I just hope that AVA won't get burried after Toms return to Blink. Both bands are good in their waym but I would miss AvA
Still here in 2019 ❤️ Tom i f...... love you man
sick asss song, smooth vibes
2019 and still love it 💕🤙
same!
Same its hell of a tune
@@ChrisD35 i love aVa since they fist came out dude 🤙
Anyone remember they had a music video for this on the beach fighting some sort of battle ????? I could've swore they had one when I was a kid
I do, I believe the music video is still on UA-cam, but I could be wrong.
The video music video your thinking of was fan made, it was the opening scene of Saving Private Ryan if I remember correctly
They had a video with soldiers storming a beach but the most popular vid for this song when it came out was a Eureka Seven tribute vid for some reason XD
That video on the beach is not Saving Private Ryan like Curtis said. It is an AVA video for this song. It's at the start of the Start the Machine DVD Documentary they made for the making of this album. You can catch it here /watch?v=kVLytKp_Uj0 , the video for the War starts at 4:44
It was from the start the machine documentary I think
The most underrated song from AvA
2020. Still miss it
Circa 2007, college days.. ▶️ in my Ipod Nano. 🤙
The long forgotten Two-A-Days
Still a Hoover Buc fan even though I'm not from Alabama and nor did I go to Hoover High.
2012 when me and the missus first got together, this always brings me back. Good music never dies 💪 keep jammin'
I remember listening to this album everyday with my husband when we first started dating
We've been together for 14 years. I can hardly believe it. Our favorite song was A Little's Enough.
Two a days on mtv introduced me to this song
One of My favorite songs
He really does know the secret. They coming, JWST spotted them, and the marines gonna give em hell. Just watch it unfold, Tom is a prophet. ❤❤❤❤
👽👽🚀🚀🌠🛸 Best song ever
2019🎧..Believee.....👊🏼✊🏼
I’ve just been listening to Space Age Love Song by Flock of Seagulls. You can definitely hear their influence on AVA! So cool.
that drum
Atom Willard is the man
THE WAR 🤘💥🔥
O melhor dos melhores
Who is the bitter blink fan disliking all of these new uploads? Really haha.
+Drake Bell shut up josh
In 2022 still going strong this music never gets old
With the situation going on between Russia and the Ukraine, I can't help but listen to this.
The nostalgia 😍
Mano que Música sensacional
2024, sigue siendo hermoso...
