blink-182 - Darkside (Behind The Scenes)

Follow The Band

Lyrics:

She’s a girl dressed in black from another world
Lives and breathes like a girl from another world
She don’t know my name
She don’t have the time of day
Celebrate medicate ‘til we numb the pain
In this storm it’s still dark like it always rains
She don’t feel the same
She don’t have the time of day
And I wait for her
I don’t care what you say
No I don’t care what you do
I’m going to the darkside with you
She’s a girl
I look back to what could have been
Her cloak and dagger mouth tastes like medicine
She won’t last the night
Spun out in the neon light
You would leave but you need me to numb the pain
You’re possessed and you slept through another day
You don’t feel the same
And I don’t have the strength to stay

When Matt said " All the kids were so nice to each other and gives me hope for the future" this is what we need to instill in all children. <3 Walk now so we can Run tomorrow.

It’s hard to dislike this music video after hearing what Matt had to say about how great the kids were and how happy it made him

[eyesburningup]

It’s good to see how Mark Hoppus finally got to be the English teacher he always wanted to be haha

Blink has always been (for me at least) about how important the youth is in society. They're songs often reflect the struggles teens and kids go through and the way they live their lives. We grew up with the idea of punk rock being cool and thats totally fine. But kids today arent the same kids that grew up in the early 2000s. Things are different but the message here is still the same. Enjoy your youth while you have it and just be a kid.

Mark's communication with the kids seems be so natural. Love you, blink-182!!

[QGrows]

I think Matt's comment gets at why they did this video. They wanted to show kids having fun and being happy, especially during a time where there's a lot of fear and sadness in the world.

[cloudrovers]

I'm impressed the first scene was done in one shot

[LandonMatson]

this doesn’t make me hate the video as much anymore those kids look liked they had a lot of fun

Me being born in the mid 90's and growing up with Blink-182, Sum 41 & Good Charolette it really brings a lot of light to their hidden meanings behind each song. It's not just about relationships and going through hard times in life. But about how important each moment in life is to everyone. The world needs to deflect all the anger and negativity and sadness and just enjoy each breath taking moment of being yourself and allowing yourself to not just become another reject or outcast. We all just need to take care of each other and be happy with what we have like we might not be here tomorrow. Remember tomorrow is not guarenteed so take advantage of it while we still can.

My two favorite adolescent bands came together. Starting when I was 9, when dude ranch came out… phew wow. I played that album over and over and over. Then enema came out and they blew up. And alkaline trio absolutely in my heart forever. They’re part of who I am as a person.

[itsmeh]

Godamn. I liked this more than the actual official video.

[Joeofsuburbia]

love the fact that blick always make youth youthful beautiful life we have with BLINK!*@!!!!

[krisrosales]

I saw the "Darkside" video this morning for the first time, and in the end I was wondering how you could make it so fluid and moving with no notable cuts, and right now, I have the answer 😁🤘

[l-y-d-s]

Dude these kids must have been so happy, imagine as a kid how much of a dream it would be for you to be in the music video of a dope artist or band. I can’t believe seeing kids happy or enjoy themselves is this undesirable thing based on the comments to the video. People have to mature and wish this kind of experience for all kids. Imagine if we could make the dreams of all kids come true. Peace.

[Richievaillant]

My favourite people, having fun doing what they love. What's not to like 😊

[fegale]

I feel this video is full of good energy, I couldn't watch it without a big smile on my face... I love this band, I love this big family and all that they do, because I really feel it give me that energy through their songs, the way they sing and do the things. I love you blink-182.

[ronaldwow]

Thank you Matt Skiba, for reviving BLINK182...!!❤️👌🏽🤘🏽

[SilenttempestZX]

The concept of this video and the videography was absolutely brilliant! Blink 182 are now like aging Dad’s, so I can understand the good place in their heart they have for kids. This video was well done!

[lianahashim]

From running around naked in the streets, to this. My god, how they have grown. *teary eyed*
