Blink-182Īt the time of the release of this track, Blink-182 consisted of the following artists: In 2020 this song experienced a newfound surge in popularity after it was parodied in a video. And in response to such Tom DeLonge, who sang the original (alongside Mark Hoppus) went on to further parody the song himself. “I Miss You”, as produced by Jerry Finn, is acoustic instrumentally.Īnd the song fared pretty well itself, reaching number one on Billboard’s Alternative Airplay chart. It also achieved platinum status in the UK and overall charted in over a dozen nations. According to DeLonge, he is a huge fan of The Cure.Īnd speaking of “The Nightmare Before Christmas”, the music video to this track, as directed by Swedish filmographer Jonas Åkerlund, featured sort of a horror motif alsoĪnd speaking of inspirations, The Chainsmokers relied heavily on this very song to inspire their own track “ Closer“, which was one of the biggest hits of 2016. And it was Travis’s idea to introduce a reference to “The Nightmare Before Christmas”, a classic animated holiday film that came out in 1993.Īnother major influence on the song is a track called “The Love Cats” which British band The Cure released in 1983. The song was co-written by Blink-182’s Travis Barker but primarily by his bandmates Mark Hoppus and Tom DeLonge. The latter two did so by coming up with a common theme and then writing verses pertaining to such in separate rooms. Well that latter statement is symbolic of his low self-esteem, so to speak, concerning the matter. That is, as mentioned earlier, he is by and large under the impression that she has already forsaken this relationship.
That’s the idea that the chorus, which is repeated at the conclusion of the song, is meant to indicate. Indeed a listener may find it a bit confusing that on one hand the singer is seemingly begging his lover to come back, and one the other he is telling her “don’t waste your time on me”. And what we’re dealing with here is basically a case of the singer coming to grips with the fact that the relationship with the woman he loves is now over. That does not mean that he is taking such lying down nor easily. Rather the title points to his resolve to let her know that he’s been suffering in her absence.Īnd the lyrics of the verses serve a similar function, where he basically likens what he is going through (as alluded to above) to a horror movie.Īnd taking such a grim approach is indicative of the overall depression he is experiencing. Indeed going back to his pessimistic outlook, even though he is still communicating with his sweetheart, letting her know that he does in fact “miss” her, in the back of his mind he perceives little true hope in terms of reconciliation.
