Pop-punk legends Blink-182 performed at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Canada last night (May 12th) as part of their world tour and while playing their very last song, they paid their respects to Simple Plan by performing a snippet of their song. During the final song of the set, ‘Dammit’, one of the band’s most notorious songs, Blink-182 suddenly switched to perform an interesting rendition of ‘I’d Do Anything’ by Simple Plan, who are well-known to be originate from Montreal. The choice of ‘I’d Do Anything’ is even more special because Blink-182’s singer Mark Hoppus is featured on this track as well as on the music video.

The members of Simple Plan have of course been very happy to hear about this cover happening in their hometown and immediately reposted this honor from their pop punk heroes all over their social media channels.

Check out the short snippet of this Blink-182 cover of a Simple Plan song below:

On the night before his first show back in Australia today at Good Things Festival, Pierre Bouvier headed out to the Stay Gold club yesterday, December 5th, where Simple Creatures (a musical duo featuring Alex Gaskarth from All Time Low and Mark Hoppus from blink-182) performed a special DJ set.

The guys then invited their old pal to join them during the set to sing his own band’s song – Simple Plan’s ‘I’d Do Anything’, accompanied by Alex and also Mark Hoppus, hence this becoming the first ever live featuring of Mark Hoppus on this song, which he had lent his vocals to back on Simple Plan’s debut album in 2002.

Dave Franco quotes Simple Plan’s ‘I’d Do Anything’ in a new Netflix movie

AUTHOR: Dominika | 14. April 2018 | no comments

Ever since 2002, Simple Plan’s first single from their debut album – the song ‘I’d Do Anything’ has been deeply engraved in the minds of millions of people and still continues to be one of Simple Plan’s most recognizable tunes.

Big thanks to our very observative reader Yva we have now found out that a reference to this song has been made in a newly released Netflix film, co-produced by Channing Tatum, called 6 Balloons, which follows the struggles of Katie (Abbi Jacobson), who’s brother Seth (Dave Franco) is addicted to heroin.

Towards the movie’s end, around its 64th minute, the two siblings get into a car, where Dave Franco’s character tries to remember the words to the song ‘I’d Do Anything’ by Simple Plan, while his sister tries to make him stop and listen to her instead.

Check out the full conversation featuring the song’s lyrics below:

Katie: When I’m with you, all I see is you.
Seth: … What song is that?
Seth: *sings* I close my eyes…
Katie: Stop it.
Seth: *continues singing* And all I see is you..
Katie: Stop!
Seth: *continues singing* I close my eyes…
Katie: Stop it. Jesus, stop!
Seth: *continues singing* I try to sleep, I can’t forget you…

Check out the trailer for the movie below. 6 Balloons is now available on Netflix:
