'Greatest Hits' brings together 17 of Blinks finest moments - from the scratchy imperfect 'Carousel' and 'Dammit', to the more recent 'Feeling This' - it's a collection sure to please the majority of the bands fans, myself included. After a few plays, it becomes all to apparent that, despite ... Read review

...the last laugh. Greatest Hits shows Blink 182 for what they are, a trio of young guys that truly loved what they did. From 'Carousel' to 'Feeling This', from 'Dammit' to 'I Miss You', the band gave the late 90's a severe kick in the shins, and had some fun in the meantime. Often ridiculed, Mark, Tom and Travis can count the honours; 16 million album sales, numerous awards, sell out tours worldwide - I for one, will miss them a hell of a lot. Here's ...

Blink 182: Greatest Hits
Basically this is most of Blink 182 Greatest hits crammed on to one cd. I think there are more than these as greatest hits Blink 182 are an amazing punk/rock band. We were all sad when we hear about their split and this was their last album.
Carousel: Fast tempo to this song and some really good lyrics. M&m's: This tempo is in between fast and medium because the beat is sort of fast but the lyrics are slowish. But it is ... ...I don't think that blink 182 could have done any better on this song it is perfect.
Josie: this song has a great bass line and the tempo is fast it's not a bad song but it isn't the best.
What's my age again: This is one of the best songs they have ever done and the video is funny its Tom Mark and Travis running round the streets naked
It has great tempo rhythm and beat its flawless!
All the small things: There are a lot of nana's in this song ...

Advantages: Best track - Stay together for the kids Disadvantages: Worst track - Always
...I decided to buy the greatest hits just to see what it was like and it definatly has their greatest hits. This album has exactly what it says on the cover, their GREATEST hits! Some of the tracks were even in the charts so the album really does include many of their finest songs.
The track listing is as follows including the album the song was originally on and the release date:
1. Carousel 3:13
Buddha - released 1998
A very catchy song. Good ... ...seem to be on the greatest hits version I have so I don't know what this song is like, probably good though!)
9. The Rock Show 2:49 Take off your pants and jacket - released 2001
Very catchy guitar riff at the beginning. I think this song is about a girl being very laid back in life, and Blink 182 love her. Quite a punk rock song. 10. First Date 2:49 Take off your pants and jacket - released 2001
When I first heard this song I was amazed by the ...

I personally think that most of the songs on this album are classics but Blink 182 are one of those bands that you are either a fan of or you are not. They have a style of their own which is ...

Album Notes: This "greatest hits" collection spans the short career of one of pop-punk's most celebrated outfits Blink 182. The album features tracks from their 1994 debut 'Buddha' through to the more experimental final album, 2003's 'Blink 182'. The album serves as a perfect introduction into the band's hook driven pop-punk which has always involved a large dose of frat-boy toilet humour.
