UNICORN VOMIT Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 I thought I read that Tight Wad Hill was written about Dee Dee Ramone - I think it was Punk's Not Dead. Not sure though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the significance of the song and I like the lyrics, just musically it doesn't flow for me as well as the other insomniac songs. I like singing the chorus though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's just trolling for a response like this Word. It's just the least interesting song on there I think, nothing really stands out about it. I don't think he is and I agree with him. Nightlife with the sort of rap from sort of rapper Lady Cobra was a nice taster but a collab with a proper well respected rapper would be amazing. Ever since I heard them quoting classic gangsta rap lines in Like A Rat Does Cheese and saw Tre in an NWA hat I've hoped for it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St. Jonny Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Tight Wad Hill is about drug dealers and shit. Making there rounds once again. Turning up empty handed. Bumming a ride, burning daylight, last up at dawn Tight Wad Hill. A thrillseeker making deals, sugar city urchin wasting time. Town of lunatics, begging for another fix, turning tricks for speedballs one more night. God those lyrics are magnificent and the song is just heavy as fuck!

Thatsername Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 I like the Kerplunk-version of Welcome to Paradise better than the Dookie-version. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sound of it seems more fitting for the subject of the song, and it has the cool spooky noises in the instrumental part. The Dookie version does pack more of a punch but it's less interesting and too clean by comparison, I'll always prefer the weirder and rougher Kerplunk original. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post St. Jonny Posted March 31, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted March 31, 2017 Just an opinion. In mine, it tears it to pieces! Just can't take Blink very seriously, but that is just my opinion. Never hated them, and have owned a few albums, they just don't quite do it for me like Green Day. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedundantIdiot Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 So I used to have an 'unpopular' opinion, but I've changed my mind. I've said before that KYE should be after Bang Bang and Rev Rad, but having watched footage of my gig again, I actually like the KYE - Bang Bang - Rev Rad order. I think I probably went into my gig expecting to not like that order. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hermione Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 I'd prefer a Rev Rad song as opener just on principle , but I agree KYE is great live (wherever in the set it is) so it's not a bad one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least with Rev Rad they took a few risks; I remember many people on here being surprised by its sound at first. California is pretty cookie-cutter as far as blink-182 goes, even with the addition of Matt Skiba. Either way I think it's an apples-to-oranges comparison. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St. Jonny Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 True blue. I think he knew that would be an unpopular opinion, hence, posting it in here. To each his own, they are great too. Nobody writes more meaningful lyrics to me than Bille Joe, even on his worst day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
