Point of View (Demo #2 version)​​blink-182

Released: July 5, 1993

Songwriter: Tom DeLonge Mark Hoppus Scott Raynor

[Chorus]
Two different people, two different places
Through a one way window with two different faces
Agreements are not reached, favors are forgotten
The other person's shoes, you've not got in

[Verse]
Stubborn minded enclosed to your own world
Wake up and see someone else's morals
What is wrong to you
Might be true
I guess it's a different point of view to you
You cannot see things that are different to me
And I don't understand why you can't see
The things that I cannot see

[Bridge]
I see what you don't see
I see what you don't see
Turn around and the shadows are all around me

[Chorus]
Two different people, two different places
Through a one way window with two different faces
Agreements are not reached, favors are forgotten
The other person's shoes, you've not got in

​​blink-182

blink-182 set off the 1990s storm of pop-punk, blazing a trail in the genre with electrifying riffs and memorable lines—“Fuck a Dog,” anyone? The band has seen some lineup changes over the years, but its core trio (Tom DeLonge, Mark Hoppus, and Travis Barker) has mostly stood the test of time. As of 2015, DeLonge left the band to pursue other projects.

Founded in 1992 in Poway, California (a suburb in San Diego), DeLonge, Hoppus, and former drummer Scott Raynor formed the band in Raynor’s bedroom, writing songs for their demos, and playing practical jokes along the way. Initially, under the name Blink, the trio was forced to change the name to avoid a lawsuit with the Irish pop-rock group of the same name, so they added “182” at random (fans continue to speculate what “182” means to this day).

After releasing their demo album Buddha, blink-182 released Cheshire Cat in 1995 under Cargo Records. While not a major success at the time, the album generated buzz from the Southern California punk scene and major labels alike. After being signed to MCA Records, the band released Dude Ranch in 1997 with the hit singles “Dammit” and “Josie”.
