More quotes by Mark Hoppus
I think that happiness is a great thing to strive for, but very difficult to maintain - people are always striving for something different, and something better.
Mark Hoppus
I don't think any of us felt like, Oh, we need to put joke songs on the record. If we found something funny, we would record it, and if we wanted to, we'd put it on the record. It's not really something we spent too much time agonizing over.
Mark Hoppus
I liked seventeen-year-old me, I was happy when I was seventeen. I was this troubled goth kid that wore eyeliner and make-up to school and listened to punk-rock music and I loved my friends and I started to make music - I like seventeen-year-old me.
Mark Hoppus
I dated the same girl all through high school.

I really enjoy helping a band form their sounds and ideas from initial spark to completed album. Being a producer is different in that, at the end of the day, it is not my art. It's THEIR art, THEIR ideas, THEIR message.

True happiness for me is playing a concert in Blink-182, and then hanging out with my friends and my wife and son, and going out for Mexican food.
Mark Hoppus
There was a great push and pull of what Blink-128 should sound like all the time. Travis Barker comes from a different background than I do, and Tom DeLonge comes from a different background than either of us in terms of what we write and what we think a song should be. Tom pushes me out of a box that I put myself in.

I've learned some of the greatest life lessons from growing up in the skate and punk rock communities.
Mark Hoppus
The fact that music can induce Goosebumps draw a tear inspire and connect is one of my favorite parts of being human
Mark Hoppus
I like that about human nature, that people are always striving to do better, and find something new.
Mark Hoppus
I grew up the biggest fan of the Cure. Knew every lyric, had every album, B-side, single, poster, everything. Then cut to fifteen years later, and we're working on songs together. Ridiculous.
Mark Hoppus
Farts and poop are still funny and will always be funny.
Mark Hoppus
Being a producer is a very different experience than writing my own songs.
Mark Hoppus
The Beatles never get old.
Mark Hoppus
Now everything is available at the push of a button, and that thrill of the search is gone. With vinyl albums and special edition releases, I feel like that's coming back.
Mark Hoppus
No matter what, I think people are trying to better themselves, or to better their situation, or to find something new and exciting.
Mark Hoppus
All the really pretty girls get pregnant.
Mark Hoppus
I don't have a problem being on 'MTV,' and I don't have a problem being on the radio. I actually like it. So there. And anyone that calls me a sell out is just jealous.
Mark Hoppus
What I love about Blink-128 is that we write catchy melodies with dark lyrics.
