Quick overview of the album alphabet theory and I review my take on it. Start Collecting get all the CDs or Vinyl here: amzn.to/2p5A7C2 Get Dogs eating dogs here: amzn.to/2CPxYDW
Until you start seeing the exact same symbolism with almost every famous group or person then realize that there is no such thing as coincidence after so many...
@arrrrrran3043 oh no i got the joke!! I used to be blink obsessed!! But the fact is, is they are apart of it now unfortunately as much as i wanted to deny it, the facts and symbolism lie in their newest music videos now..they bucked it for he longest time and gave in.
I can confirm the "G" was intentionally added to follow the conspiracy, but like you said, before that it was just organic. Some people also say there's a hidden capital "H" in the "b" on the untitled album
The H is in the circle of the "b" in blink on self titled. L and M are on California more hard to find then "(N)ine comes out, now "(O)ne more time" is coming.
Actually the b in the greatest hits has the I if you look on the top of the letter b there is a vertical line and the two horizontal lines on top of and below it make out the I
@@brianwolf399those are both uppercase B's that are being particularly obscured by the lowercase B over top of them. the logo from this period was comprised of multiple overlapping fonts
This is going to sound like internet lies, I know…but I posted a blog around late 2000/early 2001 about this after the live album came out, I was still in elementary school. I told my friends “the next blink album will have a G on it” and when it was true I was so excited. It’s still the most viewed blog post and still gets hits. I was just a kid who saw a pattern and posted about it. I’ve been told I was the first to share this theory and I have to admit I’m fairly proud of it. There’s even an interview with Mark where he said it wasn’t intentional until they read a blog post about it and decided to keep it up which would be amazing if it’s true.
Of course they will use that excuse to keep it up lol i believe you for sure, but there is definitely more sinister at play with this and use your blog as the scapegoat. Trust me, i used to be a blink obsessed fan but i see it still in lots of musicians and bands, especially now with new pop stars...actually they are just more open about being satanic than using subliminal messaging since time is almost up. Look at lil uzi vert (lilucy-fer) Travis Scott etc... its all filled with open satanic stuff. Don't even need to search for it anymore. Just look at the stage and entrance to "astro world" (astral world)..its all in our faces! Truth is stranger than fiction
i think mark kinda might have hinted that this alphabet myth is true...in 2011 he did a live stream before an interview and fans asked him alot of stuff, this was a few days after neighborhood was released...a fan asked him "is there a letter L on the cover album" and mark said "no..its not time for L..its time for j" then he started thinking out loud "is it time for j?" then he murmured all the discography from buddha to greatest hits" and said "yeah definitely j"..so yeah its probably true
Ha that's coool, havn't seen that interview. I agree some of the letters are placed. Just havnt seen a convincing H and dont think they started from day one with that plan. Also what are your thoughts on DED and California?
yeah, you can find the of that live stream on youtube, just search "mark hoppus on justin.tv 2011" its like split in 3 parts, it was really cool....now my thoughts DED and california, definitely liked DED over neighborhoods, even though it was shorter record, it kinda felt it had more of collective effort and a better middle ground from all members, from what i heard tom spend very little time with mark and travis when he did neighborhoods and wasnt around to aprove mixes, thats kinda of why to me that record didnt have a consistent sound, tom wanted something more experimental and less traditional, mark and travis wanted a more classic sound and faster paced, and some of the elements tom brought from AVA worked and some didnt, but still he did a good job on the lyrics for that record , but for dogs eating dogs the three of them together at all time and we got a better album cause of that. as for california i think i heard it a bit to much when it came out and dont listen to it as much, definitely enjoy way more the deluxe songs over the regular record...still the main to issues that i had with that record was repetition, it tried too much to replicate the enema and take of formula it was written too fast and repeated some themes a little too much. They used the same riff too many times and they sang all the songs together in the same way (mark starting the song, matt singings the first chorus and second verse, then the naa naas come in, etc). Second issue, matt skiba didnt take as much chances as i would have hoped, i was so in for a new blink 182 album with matt, he is one of my favorite lyricist but what he delivered was very little. probably he was afraid to take blink into very dark themes like he does in alkaline trio..but frankly you can see so much a difference on matts writing with california and the few songs they released from "is this thing cursed" , you can feel so much more input from him my other issue ...john feldmann, i think he is an amazing song writer, i love his early goldfinger work, and he did a few good things for california, its thanks to him that he have songs like home is such a lonely place and san diego( which is among my 3 favorite blink songs of all time with apple shampoo and im lost without you) but still, his work ended up giving us a record that sounded too polished and synthetic at times, it lacked some of the raw elements that would make a punk/roc record great. i think he had too much input in the making of the record which he should have just been there to help, not to take over. if you ask me blink could do an amazing record with matt if, 1. they dont try to do the enema formula, that might have worked in 1999 but in 2018 we need a record with more thought and more emotion, talking about being 17 is ok for a few songs but not for an entire record, and drop the naa naas 2. they allow all of the members to have more input, matt might not be as creative on riffs like tom was, but he can do amazing lyrics let him elaborate on that 3. work with a producer like bill stevenson, he produced alkaline trios "my shame is tru"e and many other punk records from nofx, descendents, lagwagon, rise against...he might know how to properly record and produce a punk record a little better than john those are my thoughts on cali, i dont hate it but only see myself hearing some of the deluxe songs like good old days, long lost feeling, san diego and parking lot, i hope the next record will have more of matts input and that feldmann doesnt over do it this time...i hope they really listen to their fans
The F on travis's drum on the cover of the mark, tom and travis show is just travis's company he started around that time Famous stars and straps. IMO it's just a happy accident that it aligns with the alphabet conspiracy; it was just self promotion. My other issue is if people are counting Flyswatter as an album to get the A from, what about They Came to Conquer Uranus? A demo counts but an EP doesn't? In reality it's just some silly fun for us fans to ponder
I’m convinced there’s a deeper message behind the ‘G’. Album covers have a bunch of hidden stuff, and I think one of the the members purposely wanted it there, maybe Mark bc he was assigned the Jacket. 🤷♂️
another idea is Tom just put the G on the jacket since G is masonic symbol, and Tom legit went thru a Freemason phase and joined a lodge. There are photos online of him in the attire lol.
i think that they didnt continue it on untitled because you can even see the pink drips of paint trying to continue to the blue paint as if it was signifying the H...i think they dropped it though after untitled cause tom left the band
which version is the blue/green self titled disc ive only ever seen pink ones in person only times till now i ever saw the blue/green disc was in 2003 when they were doing update videos on their very old website that got change in 2009 when they got back together and when mtv put out the album launch episode back in 2003 which i have watched multiple times over the years and have many times watched the video of mark watching it and the now second time ive seen the blue/green disc is your copy i tried scanning the barcode and the disc in the video but all that came up was the normal pink version i even typed in enhanced cd but still only got the pink one
They released these limited versions when the album came out originally. One with the green jacket symbol one with the red plane and one with the yellow pants. Each have separate bonus tracks as well. Most people have the version you have tho.
@@tonyzee7162 red version( time to break up and mother's day) yellow version(what went wrong and f*** a dog) green version(don't tell me it's over and when you f****** grandpa). Time to break up, what went wrong, and don't tell me are some of my favorite songs.
Honestly it doesn't even work for Buddha which ruins this whole theory. Originally Buddha didn't even have a name, just a picture of Buddha and "Blink" on it. It was later named Buddha by fans to refer to it and thus was named Buddha for reissue. Cool coincidence mixed with a lot of stretches, you'll find anything if you search for it.
I think you missed the real h on the self titled. I think if you look harder you’ll see an h almost like a missed type writer hammer that has another letter over it. I can’t remember where but I can maybe comment again to show you exactly where it is.
Amazon presses them for people who prefer discs. I believe it may be a CD-R too (?). I have one from another band (Fences - Ultimate Puke EP). The back of the case is plain black with white text for the tracklist.
If anyone is into predictive programming conspiracies specifically for 9-11, take a long look at take of your pants and jacket album cover. Look up the date in which the album came out.
We all know conspiracies are dumb.
What if people knew that these were real
leave my closet door open all night
Until you start seeing the exact same symbolism with almost every famous group or person then realize that there is no such thing as coincidence after so many...

182 Collector the alphabet works up until take off ur pants album, which was released a few months before
"G" Green?
The "F" is for Travis Barker's "famous stars and straps".
annoys me how the greatest hits is expected to have a letter.
Yes agreed. I'm sure that was a cash grab by the record label beacause of the band splitting up. Doubt the band had much input or care about that one.
The H is in the eye of smiley face logo .... for untitled
Dude I’m glad you didn’t make your dog wait. I think most people would finish the vid.
Thanks! Ya he is a good pup and rings the bell when he needs to go out. I wouldn't want to wait to go the bathroom!
Enema of the State was also a play on the film Enemy of the State, which was popular when recording.
Don’t forget the enema strikes back as a nod to star wars haha
My untitled is a pink disc instead of blue. WHOA!
Mine is green...
The explicit version is pink and censored is blue
Blue was censored
@@justincoeburn9842 oh!
The random G on the jacket always bothered me. I guess this is why
Freemason. How about the plane and the “pants” of America, the twin towers. Toms a mason. Masons know things before they happen.
Geffen records
Basically only works for Budah, Cheshire, Dude Ranch, Enema.
The others are total stretches.
That would make sense but The G in TOYPAJ would make sense and in neighborhoods it just does not make sense that there would be a J randomly
I always thought the G just meant green lol.
Untitled is their best because they mived forward with their sound.

The G was for the GREEN version of the album. The jacket version was GREEN. The G on the jacket is obviously for GREEN
I’m convinced there’s a deeper message behind the ‘G’. Album covers have a bunch of hidden stuff, and I think one of the the members purposely wanted it there, maybe Mark bc he was assigned the Jacket. 🤷♂️

@@Jez4prez1the pants are the twin towers. Masons knew of 9-11 before hand.
The government was behind Blink-182
yer Blink is a military psyops band, used to brainwash the kids and increase recruitment. In later years the gov then used Tom to release UFO videos.
Truth or not this is a sweet collection
i think that they didnt continue it on untitled because you can even see the pink drips of paint trying to continue to the blue paint as if it was signifying the H...i think they dropped it though after untitled cause tom left the band
In the bottom of the blur part on untitiled there is an "H"
I thought the "H" was between the X in the left eye (Right side of the face), and the outer circle.
Between Flyswatter and Buddha they made Demo#2 (aka 21 Days) so that throws the whole thing off.
I don't think that one would be included just like the short bus EP and they came to conquer Uranus releases are not part of it.
@@182collector4 Yea, but it be kinda weird for Greatest Hits and Mark Tom and Travis show to count but not 21 Days though.
@@ericcarson4513 ya that's a good point.
Dogs Eating Dogs could be the “K-182” in blink 182 -> 18/2=9, -> K9 = Canine = DOGS EATING DOGS
It could be, but it isn't.
I always thought the g was for green or go
The g on the jacket could stand for "green"
It’s for freemasonry Tom is one. The album cover is predicting 9-11 months before it happened
The H is in the hole of the B for blink 182 on the self titled and the I is in Hits for the Greatest Hits obviously lol
Also CaLIfornia and the M is in the blink logo on Nine and the N is in ONe More Time so they definitely kept it going
Self titled album the H is in the blue paint stroke on the left, at the bottom
I'm surprised that more people are not acknowledging the fact that (O)ne more time follows pattern if you count california deluxe as it's own album.
California has a "m" on the rearview mirror actually. Then, (N)ine. Then, (O)ne More Time...
L = California
M = California deluxe
N = Nine
O = One more time
The “H” is the biggest reach I’ve ever seen lol
Yeah... 2 lines near each other - must be an h
Especially when the lower case h inside the b actually makes a lot more sense.
which version is the blue/green self titled disc ive only ever seen pink ones in person only times till now i ever saw the blue/green disc was in 2003 when they were doing update videos on their very old website that got change in 2009 when they got back together and when mtv put out the album launch episode back in 2003 which i have watched multiple times over the years and have many times watched the video of mark watching it and the now second time ive seen the blue/green disc is your copy i tried scanning the barcode and the disc in the video but all that came up was the normal pink version i even typed in enhanced cd but still only got the pink one
Blue/green is the edited version. Pink is the regular version.
The dog ringing the bell lol 😂
the original release of Buddha was a cassette and didn't say "Buddha" it.
Someone explain yo me how he got the dogs eating dogs CD I thought it wasn't on CD
I thought Marks excuse for the 'G' was "in tribute to Guttermouth" cuz hes was into them at the time or smth
The same number 1 font with i behind is on Untitled/ Selftitled
The H is a capital H in the right eye of the face on untitled. Way more obvious than the one you mentioned✌️
exactly!
There is an A in flyswAtter, I never considered the artwork to be an A.
I have a Blink-182 shirt
That's a start! You should make a video about your shirt. I'd watch haha
You got a like cus your dog ringed the bell
7:55 video which could have been a less than two minute video .
Thanks for watching. Hope you got some insights into the intricacies of collecting.
On the new album 'One more time', Tom is looking to the left --> 'L' eft. Just saying.
The H is the right hand eye on the smiley.
Where can I get a dogs eating dogs cd??
Since there are red plane yellow pants green jacket
Why doesn't my toypaj look like that? my cd is silver with the decals from the front cover.
They released these limited versions when the album came out originally. One with the green jacket symbol one with the red plane and one with the yellow pants. Each have separate bonus tracks as well. Most people have the version you have tho.
@@182collector4 oh wow. what are the seperate bonus tracks?
@@tonyzee7162 red version( time to break up and mother's day) yellow version(what went wrong and f*** a dog) green version(don't tell me it's over and when you f****** grandpa). Time to break up, what went wrong, and don't tell me are some of my favorite songs.
I think the “H” on self titled and the “I” on the greatest hits is a bit of a stretch.
i think the dog eating dogs could be the dog being a k-9?
The G on the jacket was a tribute to greenday and how its green on the jacket
Lol
Freemasonry. The plane was jacked and the pants are the twin towers. 911 predictive programming

Also you calling the pink on Untitled red makes me not want to believe you even if you said the sun would rise tomorrow lmao
Geffen owns MCA
I think you missed the real h on the self titled. I think if you look harder you’ll see an h almost like a missed type writer hammer that has another letter over it. I can’t remember where but I can maybe comment again to show you exactly where it is.
Nm I went back and looked I thought it was an H hidden under the “b” but I think it’s still a smaller b.
CD > Vinyl
dogs eating dogs was released on CD?

Ehhhh.....🤔🤔🤔
Ever since i was a kid back in the 70's and 80's album art always had a certain mysticism and symbolism .
If anyone is into predictive programming conspiracies specifically for 9-11, take a long look at take of your pants and jacket album cover. Look up the date in which the album came out.
The G is free masonry. Toms a mason. They know secrets. The pants are the twin towers. And yeah the plane.
2:44 the H is in the right cross eye
I would love to see an update on this conspiracy through the release of Nine.
one more time
California has a "m" on the rearview mirror actually. Then, (N)ine. Then, (O)ne More Time...
this is like some deep web stuff :0
He's reaching when he got to H
Great channel subbed
Jacket is spelt with a J so no
Is this a joke or have you just not seen the cover.. I'm not sure.
Take of your pants was about the time tom joined the freemasons which is where the G comes from
Right before 9-11. Hints the plane and the pants version of the twin towers. Masons knew beforehand.
I'd believe that haha
The g is for geffen records brain busters
Toypaj is on MCA 🤯
Holyshit
😂
leave the self titled alone this video is not helping lol
Ever heard of editing?
Thanks for the constructive criticism. Doing this for other collectors dont need to put the time in for the general public.
I actually enjoyed when you left to go let your animal out 😂
I just thought it was really cute, and maybe it will remind other people to not be lazy sacks of crap and play with their pets
