Hoppus said he filled the bracket out in “two minutes” and followed “[his] gut and didn’t second guess anything.”
He crowned ‘Feeling This’ as the top song, and explained why on Twitter. “It’s the apex of blink-182,” he tweeted. “The best of all of us. It was different and new and (in my opinion) groundbreaking.”
Hoppus explained to confused fans what ‘YED’ means, explaining that it’s an abbreviation for “I Miss You” and a light-hearted jab at the way Tom DeLonge pronounces the lyric, “The voice inside my head.”
In other news concerning DeLonge, three purported UFO videos were made public by DeLonge‘s UFO research organisation To The Stars Academy have now been given extra credibility after they were released by The Pentagon.

The former Blink-182 member has long had an interest in UFOs, co-founding the company To The Stars Academy of Arts & Science, which works with US government officials with a view to “changing the world” through science, aerospace and entertainment.
In 2017 and 2018, DeLonge’s organisation published three clips captured by Navy pilots which seemingly showed strange objects appearing to accelerate rapidly in US airspace.
The footage was also reported by The New York Times, but the new release marks the first time that The Pentagon has recognised their existence.
