21 pilots is a good call but my first thought was, and still is, they must've been listening to Noel Gallagher - another increasingly problematic British icon for Billie to love on, checks out  :sherlock: :P

Yeah, it has similar vibes I think but I personally prefer his little brother’s works much more lol Billie loves British bands, mentioned The Cure recently and it honestly made me happy

The line "I found a knife by the railroad track / You took a train and you can't go back" from Outlaws always reminds me of one of my favourite scenes from the Harry Potter books.

In the last book where Harry meets Dumbledore at King's Cross and Dumbledore tells him "I think that if you decided not to go back, you would be able to ... let's say ... board a train" and Harry asks him: "And where would it take me?" And Dumbledore replies: "On."

And I'm like

Part of me really liked the fact each album since Dookie came out one year later than the last until 21CB, now there's no pattern to how the album's come out and I don't like it

Remember this previous valentine's tweet from Billie:

 

And this from the Longshot - "Love is for Losers":

I was overjoyed when Billie said he loved The Cure. They're one of my most favorite bands and I was like AHHHH Billie loves them too! Excellent taste 👌

Mano y mano in stereo without a Cure!

this version of Jinx really makes it stand out as the sad "I'm a bad person to have a relationship with" song and I prefer it to the album version (that never really worked for me)

I love Jinx and especially the lyrics for it. I agree though, that particular version of it hits harder. Same goes for Stuart!

It's such a great song that I've been overlooking for years

It was during a recent radio interview. I think it was the Alt 105 one.

Walking Contradiction is such an excellent song. The lyrics are so well written.

No it was pretty easy because I had to go with a tame, hit single since it's for work :P

The instrumentation of Cigarettes and Valentines in some places sounds a lot like American Idiot. Seriously. They were going to evolve whether Dookie fans liked it or not, haha. It's so obvious to me tbh, I wonder if it'd be even more obvious on the studio recorded track 🤔

Go to 2:21 and listen if you think it's a stretch!
