Same here!! And I love cosmology, space technology and being open-minded. AVA have had two of the best drummers on the planet playing for them too. :) Best wishes for 2020. :)
@@ksturmer5388 yes sir. I love space and everything I can study on every subject. I have not found many things I won't study just like yourself I have a open mmind. It keeps life I interesting. Have a great 2020 my friend. Can't wait to see what A.V.A. does next. does .
Hey Tom Delonge and AVA I hope you read this one day. One of my first dates with a girl was a live concert of you guys. I'll never forget the moment you were playing this song and during all of the last part ("hold on, hold on to me"), we held on to each other and kissed for the first time. We are now engaged and getting married in a few months. Thank you for making that magical memory possible. Update 11/2/22! I am speechless to all those who have read this and I can only hope this makes it to Tom's eyes one day especially now that he's back tearing it up with Blink. To those who have asked, my now WIFE and I just made it through our first year of marriage. It hasn't been easy but we both do what it takes to make it possible to spend the rest of our lives together! ❤️ All of the love and support from fellow AvA fans is truly touching.
Hell yeah!! I remember when they first went on tour they were the openers to Taking Back Sundays Louder Now album tour. This was the opening song and it fuckin blew me away!!
I enjoy both. Tom when he started and Tom's voice now. I'm older and still love the dick and fart jokes il like the new stuff they are doing now. Glad to see Matt go. We needed a new Alk3 album.
Cody Harper yeah i must be a troll because im skeptic of your comment .. if you used like instead of love i wouldve agreed..... but sorry that i made you think that im a troll .. still .. your definition of love is different then mine guaranteed
I remember when I first heard of Angels & Airwaves back in May 2006, around the time their first album came out. I was going to see Taking Back Sunday in concert, & AVA was touring with them, so I went onto their MySpace (at the time) & checked out a few of their songs. My jaw dropped, & I was hooked! Right when I heard the first song I said to myself "holy shit, it's Tom Delonge!" A few songs later & I hopped in my car to go buy the album. One of my favorite albums from a band. I was 20 years old at the time. I'm 29 now, & I'm still in awe by this album. Brings back such great memories that make you have those butterfly feelings in your stomach. Pure masterpiece!
Hha same here, when i was saw their first video "the adventure" on tv i still can't believe that was tom delonge. I mean, really? Hha my favorite album of all time as well, I'm about 16 that time.
My favorite song of Tom's. And I am 100% convinced it sounds best when I'm driving out of the city late at night and as the city's lights fade in the rearview mirror the darkness envelops my car and the stars in all their vibrant vastness reaches down to shine for all who dare to look up and get lost in their swan song.
That was gorgeous! I can absolutely picture that. This band has definitely influenced a lot of passion in people. I read thru tons of comments and I’ve also shared this band with people I’ve met throughout my time and it’s definitely impacted them. Crazy huh? 🙂 I’ve had the pleasure of meeting Tom many years back and he’s a lovely soul. Good times
I've burn this song for 10 years & stills one of those songs I can sing out to & feel so at ease & in love. This band n album changed my life. Especially the gift
"You're a thief and a witch, but I love you to death... You steal my heart and curse under your breath , but the one thing that I would most willingly prove, that when you are gone ill be fine without you" ...........I love those lyrics..
the same but i smoke pot to enhance the experience its easier that way and quicker. i smoke to good day and diary and i sit on cloud nine until im sober again.
Who is still listening this until now 2022? This is my favorite from Angels and Airwaves. The lines "You're a thief and witch but I love you to death. You steal my heart and cursed under your breath" is so powerful and very poetic. Best written song by Tom
rofl.. i had to stop and laugh for a second. not at you or Tom.. just found this humorous. his gestures were okay i guess, nothing out of the ordinary xD but yea, a guitar definitely belongs in his arms!
my one wish would be to meet Tom DeLonge. This man has saved my life with songs just like this, among countless others in Blink and Boxcar Racer. I am battling depression and it got real bad recently due to my physical disability and being a single mother. I walk with a walker, im a recovering alcoholic and drug addict. In my most darkest of moments i found myself crying myself to sleep with Tom singing in my ear. He is an amazing lyricist and i pray for nothing but good health, good life and good times for him and his loved ones. Tom, Thank you. i may never get to meet you in this life and you may never read my comment but you saved my heart, saved my mind and my soul.
stay blessed. Tom is an angel sent from God. I think that what you said is the foundation on why he left Blink-182. I think he wanted to discover something more within himself and God. After he went on a spiritual journey, he came back and invented AVA.
This Album was just different. It’s rare you find yourself listening to each and every song and keep it on a loop with the kind of crap put out there nowadays. I was at least able too to experience this in my high school days. Rite of Spring is one of my all time faves.
Damn I haven't seen this video in ages!!! makes me want to open up my old myspace page lmfao. I remember when this and the adventure video came out, I thought it was the 2nd coming and Tom was the Messiah lmfao.
If all this shit about aliens and control of humanity through dna manipulation from the beginning is true, he'll be the closest thing we ever had to a messiah.
My friend died yesterday... She struggled in life for so long.. So very long. When I listen to this song it makes me think of her when we were together. Now she is out there... somewhere in the Universe in Love and Peace.. Rest your eyes well now Liza. I Love you.
You know it's all wonderful that Tom is back in Blink and the new album is amazing, but I will always miss AVA Tom, what an artist, everything he creates is a shining piece of diamond.
Almost 3 years ago now I remember being at a hospital with my girlfriend because we had just gone inside trying to get a cat-scan done on my head at like 10:30 at night because I was experiencing sharp pains in my head for some strange reason. Well the hospital told us they didn’t do that but she was so persistent and adamant about getting it done and pleading to the nurses behind the counter but they kept saying, “we’re sorry we don’t have a walk in cat-scan, you’ll have to come back tomorrow in the morning”, but still she tried and finally we said okay and left. But I vividly remember standing there watching her and thinking to myself my god nobody has ever given a crap or ever cared about me this much, and right there I just knew that she was my girl. We walked back to the car holding hands and I remember kissing her before we got in the car telling her I was fine and that I’ll be okay and we proceeded to get in the car and when I turned the car on this song came on, we just sat in the parking lot for a bit and she leaned over and laid on me and looked up at me, I looked back down at her and she got up and in the sweetest voice said, “what?”, and with a big smile on her face too. When she said that the lyrics, “like the time that we kissed”, hit and we kissed at that moment and something came over me I had never felt before. I looked right her and right at that moment I said, “I love you”, and she paused and smiled and said, “I love you too”, we kissed and it’s still and always will be the greatest moment of my life. I’ll always have a connection with this song, it will never get old or go away. I’ve told her I want this to be our first dance wedding song, and I’m confident it will be
Joel Pimentel lol nah you’re fine asking, unfortunately we have not, we still have to get engaged as a matter of fact but believe me, I’m confident it will happen one day, hopefully soon
I’m a Tom fan for life. Have been since 1999 when my friend introduced me to Enema of the State. Everything he has put out has spoken to me. I felt like I was growing with him as he kept putting out new projects. Every album he was on, you could hear his maturity growing. I admire him so much for always taking whatever path felt right to him, no matter what anyone things. He truly is a huge inspiration. I love you, Tom. You’re the only person who I’ve never met, but feels like a friend.
I listened to this song on repeat for 4h driving at night, I felt I was in a spaceship flying through the galaxy. So relaxing. Let s hope they keep this vibe as their trademark
Tom Delonge. I may never get to meet you but just know...you saved my life, my heart and my spirit with songs like this -among many others from Blink and Boxcar. I love you. I hope to meet u in our next life 💕🤞🏽✨ may creator bless u and ur loved ones infinitely.
Just imagine some of their songs... The Catventure. The Purr. Start The Meowchine. Purrlucinations. Everything's Meowgic. Secret Cats. ...The band would be a million times more awesome.
Blink 182 has always been part of my life and so has AVA. Thanks to them I started playing and composing. No matter how years go by, Do It For Me Now will be my favorite song ever. I remember when they came to Mexico in 2006. That was the first and only. I was eager to listen to this song. When they played it at the concert, I cried endlessly. It made me feel I was alive. To be honest, I loved the concept of the ex-members from other bands and in my opinion the first line up (Tom, David, Atom and Ryan) was the best. What a pity it was only in their debut album. Hope they will come back soon. Greetings from Mexico!
we don't need to whisper always have that special place in my heart and mind. it was the wonderful times when I have so many stray cats at home like literally there's 20something of em & I love the all they're all so lovely beings & life was so still simple. wake up-cats-go to school-go home from school-cats-sleep-cats and replay.
God damnit, I can not describe the way my heart swells every time I hear a riff or lyric that this magician creates it’s just beautiful! I love you so much tom!
Every Time I listen this song (specially 3:14) I travel to October 2017 in Student Success building Colorado University. a Girl and I kissed each other in the emergency stairway, no one else around and the place was in silence, before kissing her I said to this girl "make me feel I am the only one" while I placed her arms around my neck. Not bad for an new English learner guy. Oh God still in love and miss her a lot, I wish with all my heart she become my girl. I think I just need to wait a little.
It's the year 2019, I remember seeing the album I-Empire CD on my older brothers bed and I snagged it since I was always trying to listen to stuff he did since hes so cool in my book. I throw it into my CD player and my God as a 7 year old my ears were blessed. I grow older and my musical tastes change but still goes back to Green day, blink 182, and +44. So with the newfound phone I had I look up some music I cherished. And here I am, still in love with this music which takes me back to a child not knowing that those times fade away. Life moves on and I'm left with a life full of memories, regrets, and cherished thoughts. These are the wonderful thoughts of a 20 year old who only craves to be half his age once again but finds solace in old music.
I often find Solace in the music I listened to when I was younger too.... It's comforting. AVA will always be there for me no matter what tho! Have you listened to their new stuff?? Kiss and Tell?? They get better nd better the older they get.
I believe this was their first studio album and to me the best one. I like all their music and later stuff as well, but this album dropped when I was in 11th grade and it was perfect timing.
Part of the beauty of having a favorite song/band, is the nostalgia, and how it changes with the different times, this is when a song takes on a lifetime of love and has me fallen for it. I’ve been here since this song came out and I will always love it and jam out to it for my lifetimes music cycling and adding new music. It has saved and also healed my soul. All of my favorite bands and songs of a lifetime.🖤💙🙏🏼 namaste love you all. Love you too Tom, HMU please, I wanna help heal too. I’m ready........ Set....... ( it’s on you to say go!!😀😃😄
"Do It For Me Now" I'm frightened at night and the wind has a roar It seeps through the hall and from under the door Like the shit that was said I can't take it that well I give and I give and I give and I give and I'm still Lost and hurt and bone thin from the love that's been starved I know it got close but I'm sure it's too far From the point of suspense, we know it should be The end of that part of our favorite movie When the guy grabs the girl and gives her his hand Says take me away from this torturous land Cause the grave is set up, the hole that I dug I gave and I gave and I gave and I gave you my trust Like the time that we kissed and you gave me a lie To add to the scene you pretended to cry But I'm here and I'm cool, the way that it is Just give me a chance and I'll try to forgive And I don't know And I can't guess If we're gonna be OK But now my last wish Is that you do this with me Kiss me here and hold my hand Let me feel like I'm the only onee I know you can Won't you do it for me now I've really had it with the rain of the tears The predictable storm that has come every year And it sneaks in from shore with a bat in it's hand I'm trying I'm trying I'm trying I'm trying I can't You're a thief and a witch but I love you to death You steal my heart and curse under your breath But the one thing that I can most willingly prove That when you are gone I'll be fine without you And I don't know And I can't guess If we're gonna be OK But now my last wish Is that you do this with me Kiss me here and hold my hand Let me feel like I'm the only one I know you can Won't you do it for me now? Now just hold on, hold on to me Hold on, hold on to me (hold on to me) Hold on, hold on to me (hold on to me) Hold on, hold on to me (hold on to me) Hold on, hold on to me (hold on to me) Hold on, hold on to me (hold on to me) Hold on, hold on to me (hold on to me) Hold on, hold on to me (hold on to me) Hold on, hold on to me (hold on to me) Hold on, hold on to me
I've been a fan of Tom since I was 13, 25 years ago. AvA is a matured side of Tom as a singer, songwriter and as a person himself. It feels like I was growing up with him from the rebellious era to a matured era and now back to "missing the rebellious era" all over again 😂 but yeah I miss it so much, those good old days ❤ (PS: please bring back Atom, I LOVE HIM IN AVA 😢)
