Share a song that changed your perspective on music.
Sometimes the songs that shake our world up aren't the masterpieces, but rather a song that came around at the right place at the right time. This was the first track I heard by Blink-182 that really spoke to me, and I heard it for the first time over the loudspeaker at a Hot Topic when I was in middle school, circa 2016. It became the gateway for me to delve deep into their older music and inspired a love of skate-punk that never went away. I bought their CDs and looped the song on my shitty radio. I even coded the song to play on my personal website for a while. So, although it's not a classic or anything like that, it changed the way I related to music when I was at an impressionable age. I wouldn't change that for anything.
