Angels and Airwaves - Distraction

[iRadiium]

I was watching BoB today c:

[pancake232332]

Dude at first I thought this was a real music video, damn thats actually a really nice choice!

[TheAppleShampoo182]

I think Tom's voice is perfect here

[adexile1]

What ???

[d3l1r1ous21]

my least favorite song on this album... but it's still good :P

[Andyarr]

isn't this song about love, not war?

[Andyarr]

@Andyarr k... I get the references...

[beckymas182]

i love angels and airwaves. i love boxcar racer. and i love +44.

but none of them got shit on blink<3 :)

[RaiptYou]

sent by Enrix E B 4years ago

[MultiWTFVideos]

I like that part where there was music =3

[zenbby3]

i hate when you listen to a good song and it pauses every second because of bad connection

[Nolanwh]

Angels and Airwaves makes the perfect war movie soundtrack!!!

[asiansENJOIpandas]

@Nolanwh well most of his songs r about peace and war so of course it would! AVA 4 LIFE!!!!!!!

[yoterb]

That was a CRAZY intense video. Made me appreciate life even more. I know this was just an acting video...but hats off to those who go into situations like that knowing their odds of surviving are less than dying. GREAT song and GREAT video.

[fro08]

awesome band, but in my opinion Blink is better.

[ankitkhadka]

oww ava has got real magic

[5555555lowmen]

tom mustache remind me of the first date video

LOL :D

[checkmate81x]

shits dope

[dboot90]

what does ava stand for ?

[Blinkfortress]

@dboot90 Its the angels and airwaves logo, but since you can't flip A upside down people use a V.

[themakmain]

@Blinkfortress Wrong Actually. When Tom Delonge Split From Blink, He Was Driving To Kanasas. On His Way, He Was Thinking About A Logo The Band Could Use. Since "AAA" Obviously Was Not Going To Work, HE, As In "Tom Delonge" And Not "People", Fliped The A Into A V. Since His Daughters Name Is AVA, Its Stuck With The Band Ever Since.

[Cheamilion]

@themakmain Sounds like a good theory, otherthen in the AvA documentry, it states that AvA wasnt even thought of immediatly when blink broke up. But otherthen that, could be true.

[nsnutter]

@Blinkfortress Ava is also Tom's daughter's name ... which is another reason for the symbol AVA

[MrSphinx84]

@Blinkfortress no. he used a "V" in tyhe middle so he could also use his daughters name which is, of course, AVA.

[JamwithBands]

@Blinkfortress also the name of his daughter..

[banana0004]

@Blinkfortress AVA is also the name of Tom Delonges' daughter :)

[ilovejohnDd09]

@dboot90 its the name of his daughter too(:

[Fridayay]

@dboot90 And then Toms daughter is named Ava, so it's for her too :))

[rabitman3000]

@dboot90 its tom delonge daughters name

[zaidusa]

@dboot90 Its also Tom's daughter's name !!

[xxxbbrraaaddxxx]

@dboot90 ava is also toms daughters name

[DeltaFriendsLIVE]

@dboot90 Ava is the name of Tom Delonge's oldest daughter

[thisisaname182]

@DeltaFriendsLIVE its his only daughter

[madyoen]

we wait you in indonesia

[HiJaayD]

Very orignal music video clip!! I LOVE IT! B.O.B is actually one of my favorite episodes and AVA is actually one o my favorite bands

[SullySilverFox]

Band of Brothers, right?

[Blinkfortress]

@SullySilverFox You are correct.

[ImCheekyVeryCheeky]

i think that it shows what (decent people) did for us and that there are people like lukepleaseshutup who dont know the good that poeople do tha lil nob head!!! i think its a good song meself!!!! =)

[RussianSpetsnazClan]

I think you are one of the most creative person ever.Putin my favorite band and my favorite tv seriese together,

[aLiieNzSCX]

Like the video to the song :D

[profanity3]

1:30-2:12 is awesome

[jasy2494]

i looovvvveeee this song!!!! the lyrics are so amazing<3

[DeadIn7Seconds]

Paratroopers inbound.

[benjai97]

This Song is MY Distraction.

[grover771]

i dont think theres a better video to this song band of brothers of the the best war movies ever made

[1234Jayhawk]

what is some kid is walking through the field when 10000 paratroopers fall outta the sky?

[xJohnnyx3000x]

@1234Jayhawk It was about 1941 and they didn't have T.V's to watch their country being liberated so he went out side.

[TheWhiteAngus]

underrated band. what a shame man.

[ShAdOwSnIpE82099]

I loved the series, but all the young dudes die. I dont remember his name, but the only dude that's young and survives is that kid with the thompson 2:47. -.-

[SawtyNutz]

Love the rhythm, its simple and sweet

[mattjames1909]

First time I heard this song, I thought Tom was singing "All the old distractions".

[auroraionaa]

i wouldnt have minded being in the army id love to punch a nazi in the face in normandy ;) lol

[fraztown]

video goes good with the song and great band by the way... good job

[WTFnoseke]

sex



[cainsk8r]

Best move of all time + Best song of All Time = An orgasm to my eyes and ears

[thefruit8]

it really pays a tribute to Band of Brothers. and the lyrics are about war, as i remember correctly the band were so opposed to war and the bush regime

[arsenedevos]

blink 182 is back

[Joonmoh]

@arsenedevos: YES!

[NecroHealth]

Relaxing song I must say.

[ThoseLittleRabbits]

lol dat mexican guy played a fag in tha movie ''but im a cheerleader'' xDD

[oliverhoppusjames]

This Reminds Me Of When I Hurt My Self By Saving My M8... we went out and he didnt look when he crossed road i saw a car... i ran and pushed him out of way. i got hit at 45 mph. ill always put my friend infront of me... if i dont,. im my own desraction :/

[amoyou2134]

whats the movie shown on the video??

[mojojo1193]

@amoyou2134 band of brothers, its a series. try reading the description next time

[exotics4lyfe]

what movie is playing in this video?

[skipflippy]

@exotics4lyfe Band of Brothers i do believe

[iiTRaGiiCz]

cool

[interlude44]

Angels and airwaves is amazin music that has a really powerful message : )

[22jermz]

It's sooooo funnyy how under every single youtube video there is always one dumbass who starts a big internet argument ;)

[smithbrosvideo15]

the parachute part in the beggining is from a bridge too far

[emeraldhaiku]

i love this song =)

[Blinkfortress]

@lukepleaseshutup If you don't like the song don't listen to it.

[lukepleaseshutup]

@Blinkfortress Someone recommended it to me. Otherwise I wouldn't have.

[Blinkfortress]

@lukepleaseshutup Oh alright then, everyone has there own opinion on things.

[lukepleaseshutup]

@Blinkfortress Thanks for being civil about it. I can't tell you how many "OMG A&A iz teh best band evar i dunn car wat n e 1 sez" type responses I've seen around here.

[Blinkfortress]

@lukepleaseshutup Arguing on the internet over a song/band just seems like a waste of time.

[RSchrisykane]

@Blinkfortress justifying that arguing over the internet is a waste of time is a bigger waste of time

[staggermann1]

@Blinkfortress hells yeah



[Dyylllllaannnnn]

@lukepleaseshutup LukepleaseSHUTTHEFUCKUP

[Dyylllllaannnnn]

@lukepleaseshutup First of all, I never judged your "music taste". Please get your facts straight then come back to me, okay? Okay...

[lukepleaseshutup]

@Dyylllllaannnnn This is a waste of time. I'm removing all my damn comments since people like you can't accept criticism.

[Dyylllllaannnnn]

@lukepleaseshutup Okay.

[LyleWeathersby]

@lukepleaseshutup a distraction you say?

[Sw00zies]

@lukepleaseshutup well obviously that person has a good taste in music ;-)

[lukepleaseshutup]

@Sw00zies Subjectively...can't tell much about their character, though.

[moose030406]

@lukepleaseshutup This is way better & sounds nothing like that. You sound like a shitty person who says negative things about people's music all day on youtube.

[lukepleaseshutup]

@moose030406 Actually, that's literally the first time I've ever said anything negative about a band. Take a look at my comments history. I'm normally defending bands that I like. You can't judge a person's entire persona based solely on something they posted online.

[annaliese257]

absolutely love this song and videoo :)

[177gaga]

what channel is band of brothers of bc i can never find it

[plya4lyf247]

@177gaga youre not gonna see it on tv often. it comes on randomly on spike as a marathon. it's like 9 or 10 hours long. you can buy the set on dvd. it's like $60. the pacific, which is currently on hbo, is made by the same people that created Band of Brothers, except it is about marines in the pacific theater. check it out. (i dont have hbo, so i have to wait till it hits dvd). hope this helps.

[177gaga]

@plya4lyf247 hey thanks man hehe i was always looking on the history channel

[xhaloplayerx]

@177gaga

am pretty sure its on HBO, but sometimes spike show the whole series

they made a new version however Pacific war I believe

[GUCCIMANEISGODLIKE]

@ajoo44 she meant meaning as in not including (sex,drugs,alcohol,girls) obviously every song has a meaning, but doesn't mean it's a good meaning. Every AVA song is made by a lyrical genius. Almost every song has to deal with Love, "The Little People" rising above and being heard, pointless wars that cause only pain. Those are true meanings.

(my youtube name is a joke)

[Cachedrugs]

lloks like war metal and sound like fuck!!!

damn horrible motion...

[fromkotiwithlove]

when he plays this live. he says its about 9/11, different interpretations im guessing

[titanrage83]

Metallica! FUCK YEAH

[kewltricks]

Wtf this isnt metallica?

[mikenike40]

dumbass

[drad257]

@titanrage83 You're a fucking dumb ass. IT SAYS ANGELS AND AIRWAVES!

[Jared1519]

this song is about Blink-182 (Blink is the field nearby) and Tom just puts it in such a cool way

[JamesHeals]

he was actually interviewed by larry king about the song, it was about his daughter ava... but you never know, it could've been interlaced with blink

[Jared1519]

@JamesHeals yeah i recently saw that video and everything i thought about we dont need to whisper is exactly how tom described it....except the distraction meaning....but he may have just sad that for tv and to make him look like a good guy

[XDNOSCOP3DX]

band of brothers nice touch

[himynameisdavid7]

HEY GUYS COOL SONG HUH!.....lol

[barnesy23rd]

Great song!, cool vid to.

[RsBlackflame00]

rap is only black people attempting poetry

[xsarge001]

@RsBlackflame00 umm no listen to some bone thugs n harmony weed song ...

[xXDYNAMiiC]

thankyou that has made dipressed now with the videos

[Blinkfortress]

What?

[malley5566]

@Blinkfortress He said your videos are now manufacturing depression. >.>

[mauriiiiii15]

@xXDYNAMiiC

that is eingleish

xDDD

[lnfritzky]

great video - i thought it was the actual video until "the end!, thanks for watching!" lawl.

[kaosfreak11]

haha, 1:44 when tom says dead the guy gets shot. i remember that scene tho, great series

[beauxgisel]

hahaha.. ya u're right

[BUENASROLAS]

Angels and airwaves son lo mejor del mundo

muy originales

Guera!!!

[car1y03]

i ♥♥♥♥♥♥ ava soooooo much cause there song s ACTUALY have meaning omg. un like junky rap and pop and stuff like that :P

[ajoo44]

@car1y03 Rap songs have meaning just not the rap songs you hear on the radio. Listen to Tupac

[car1y03]

@ajoo44 very true, ive heard hes goood (Y)

[StrawBeriLuv95]

@car1y03 OMFG I totally agree!!! I love this band. Tom is a God. He has such a hot voice & his songs are AMAZING!! YEahhhhhh HEs a God. He is. He is.

[musicxlover111]

@StrawBeriLuv95 fuckin eh :D

[StrawBeriLuv95]

@musicxlover111 x]

[MrDreadnought62]

@car1y03 move bitch.... look that song up... then follow the rules... bitch

[car1y03]

@MrDreadnought62 rude . dont tell me what to do, kthanks.

[xJohnnyx3000x]

@car1y03 Listen to Tondeff-TNT..and then tell me rap has no meaning. Pop, I'm not sure what bands fall into that category.

[invaledcode]

arnt those helments pro techs? like the skating ones? wtf.

[40knoob]

NO?

[xxAznChimpxx]

limewire sucks for downloading this song can you give me link to this song

[blinkoffyourpants]

just buy the album

[xxAznChimpxx]

but i dont want tooo im poor

[blinkoffyourpants]

hm its werid because i used to download AvA songs from limewire.. but distraction was the only song that was all retarted.. i know what you mean.. but i saved up to buy the album.. and it was worth every cent. :D its not expensive.

[drad257]

Limewire sucks for downloading songs? Why would you ask for a link somewhere else... ? If you don't steal it from there where else? Bearshare? Frostwire? It's the same thing... Or buy it like I do. :D

[xxAznChimpxx]

ok ill try those and i know limewire sucks

[mandipthapablink]

ya i know rite..always gives you this crappy version

[BangOwned]

I love this song. I also love the Band of Brothers. This video went great with it.

[RICARDOdePORTUGAL]

HAHAHA you thumbs down my comment. Get over it you pussies!

[RICARDOdePORTUGAL]

Iraq is the US's fall to begin with. You can say it's not but it is.

[mamasboy1112]

the people in this vid are actors not heros i can see what your getin at tho ;)

[boonga50]

its like vietnam dont blame the troops blame the government

[alexforyou]

So, what you're saying is.

The British and US soldiers who have given up their lives in Iraq and Afghanistan aren't heroes?

Everyone who fights in a war, is a hero.

[MADE510]

awesome!

[Xylor222]

insert the theme song from the office right into the beginning, lol it fits so perfectly

[MixxelPixxel]

I really like the beginning where they're all coming down in parachutes =]

This is a great song.

[AsILayDyingBFMV]

operation market garden

[skatetillyadie1423]

amazing video dude just amazing i love it

[halodude5555]

Can anyone tell me what the meaning of this song is?

Its one of the most amazing songs ive heard and i need 2 know the meaning

[TheFreak76290]

watch the " angels and airwaves distraction live san diego " and you'll probably understand

[Stealthsuit07]

Love and war, love and war my friend.

[kotwicki90]

Tom said its about the bombs dropping and totally wiping out a city. While he was looking at the picture, he was holding his daughter and trying to think of a way to tell her it will be okay if this was happening to him.

[thefruit8]

i think it's about war and the fact that lives are lost in wars and how pointless they are as it leads to grief...

[thefruit8]

@halodude5555 well if you listen to the lyrics carefully you'll see he's talking about war. that's my guess and that wars are pointless

[sickdude197]

Its a good video.

[sharpe1]

the video is from band of brothers

[Sc0rch9902]

I dont understand the music video, could someone please explain it to me? thanks.
