Ranking Blink-182's Hit Singles From Worst To Best
5. Adam's Song
The first time fans of Mark and Travis' potty humor and general silliness heard Adam's Song, it struck a chord.

The band received heavy criticisms from mainstream media for the song's connection to a teen's suicide after a high school student hung himself while listening to Adam's Song on repeat. Mark Hoppus, the track's primary songwriter, clarified that it was an anti-suicide song about not letting depression get the best of you. Hoppus has cited stories of fans And when viewed in that light, this might be Blink's most important single to date. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2MRdtXWcgIw
