I Miss You was released by American pop punk band Blink-182 on their self titled album in 2003 and as a single in 2004, sung by Mark Hoppus and Tom DeLonge. Its slower, acoustic arrangement stood out from their earlier work and became one of their most recognizable songs. Short excerpts circulated widely on video edits, fan montages and social posts about separation and nostalgia. The instantly familiar chorus and somber tone keep it in use whenever creators need a recognizable shorthand for longing.
