🗓️ 20 DE MAYO DE 1996
Hace 30 años blink-182 lanzaba en Australia "Wasting Time" el 2do y último single del álbum Cheshire Cat.
Recién el 28 de junio fue lanzado oficialmente en todo el mundo, esta versión australiana llevó el nombre de "Wasting Time - 1996 Australian Tour EP" el single contiene la canción "Wrecked Him" perteneciente al EP 'They Came to Conquer... Uranus ' y 2 versiónes tempranas de "Lemmings" y "Enthused" que luego se volvieron a grabar para el siguiente álbum 'Dude Ranch'
La canción se centra en gran medida en un intento de llamar la atención de una chica, hasta el punto de escribir una canción sobre ella. La línea "In my town, you can’t drive naked" fue sugerida por el ingeniero Jeff Forrest cuando Mark estaba grabando voces para la pista en los Estudios Doubletime en San Diego.
"Teenage Dirtbag" is 100% autobiographical. Brendan B. Brown (vocals) wrote the song based on his own adolescence on Long Island.
Released in 2000 as the first single from Wheatus, it became one of the greatest anthems of the 2000s and exploded even more after entering the soundtrack of the film Loser.
"I Miss You" is part of the self-titled album of 2003, when blink-182 decided to totally change the sound: from festive pop-punk to something darker, more emotional and more mature. This song became one of their biggest hits precisely because it was so different from what people expected.
Breaking fully into the mainstream in 2000, “All the Small Things” saw Blink-182 deliver their biggest hit, appearing on Enema of the State, released June 1999. Performed here on Top of the Pops, the track captures the band’s catchy, high energy pop punk sound at its peak.
Exploding from the underground into wider success, “Dammit” saw Blink-182 deliver their breakthrough track, appearing on Dude Ranch, released June 1997. Captured here at Shoreline Amphitheatre in 1999, the performance reflects the band’s raw, high energy pop punk sound.
