"Always" is the fourth single from Blink-182's 2003 Blink-182 album. It was released in December 2004. The song, clocking in at 4:12, is Blink-182's longest single. "All of This", times at 4:40, would have beaten this record, had Blink-182 not gone on hiatus and actually released the track. Like much of the album, the song shows the band's 1980s influences, with the multiple-layered, heavily effected guitars and new-wave synthesizers. It is beacuse of all the effects on the instruments, that Blink-182 never actually played this song live as they would not be able to produce the same sounds with just one guitar, bass and drums. They did however perform an acoustic version of the song for BBC's Radio 1.
The music video for the song features Australian pop singer Sophie Monk. The film clip has the screen divided into 3 sections, reminiscent of Weezer's 1997 video for The Good Life, with each band member taking a level as they try to win over the girl (and at the end it looks like she falls for Travis Barker). The video was directed by Joseph Kahn.
The end of the song has 4 different bass guitars playing at once.
This was the last single the band released before taking an "indefinite hiatus." It didn't fare well on the radio, only peaking at #39 on the Billboard Modern Rock Charts, though it received extensive play on music video channels such as FUSE and MTV.
This was the last music video that they shot together as a group before going on "indefinite hiatus". Their final music video was "Not Now", but consisted only of old clips of live performances and their previous music videos.
"Always" is a synth pop ballad by British duo Erasure. It was released in 1994 as the first single from their sixth studio album I Say I Say I Say. Mute Records issued the single in the UK, while Elektra Records released it in the U.S. "Always" was written by Erasure members Vince Clarke and Andy Bell, and is produced by Heaven 17 and Human League founder Martyn Ware.
The song is based around synthesized programming by Clarke and Bell's subdued vocals and love-inspired lyrics. The music video features Bell in a stylised Chinese or Japanese ghost story inspired backdrop.
The song quickly became Erasure's thirteenth Top 10 song on the UK singles chart, peaking at number four. In Germany, "Always" hit number five. In the United States, the single became Erasure's third Top 20 hit on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number twenty, six years after their last major U.S. pop hit. On the U.S. Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart, "Always" climbed to number six. "Always~Microbots Trance Dance Mix" was used in Konami's Dance Dance Revolution: Hottest Party." game.

Hit versions have been recorded by such diverse artists as Frank Sinatra, Patsy Cline, Billie Holiday, Billy Corgan, Guy Lombardo, Leonard Cohen, Phil Collins and The Ink Spots. Billy Eckstine and Sarah Vaughan also recorded it as a duet.
"Always" was the second single from All In The Name Of Love, the seventh album from R&B group, Atlantic Starr. A syrupy adult contemporary ballad, "Always" reflected the Lewis Brothers' desire to have the type of crossover success that Whitney Houston and Lionel Richie had been enjoying in the '80s; they got their wish when "Always" soared to number one on the Billboard Hot 100 charts in the Spring of 1987.
In 2000, the pop act Boyz N Girlz United included a cover version of the song on their self titled debut, and only, album.

"Always" is the first single off the album Back Into Your System by alternative rock band Saliva. It made it to #1 on the Modern Rock Tracks for one week and has been Saliva's most successful hit. It was used for World Wrestling Entertainment's 2002 Survivor Series and was also performed at the event.
The song's chorus utilizes a power chord structure recognizable in various other singles of the alternative metal genre, including The Exies' "Ugly" released only a few years later.
The music video for "Always" focuses on a young man who appears to be haunted by a woman of his past, sporadically appearing throughout town. The video ends with the man, enraged with emotion, destroying a telephone booth before collapsing to the ground. MTV requested an edit of the lyrics in the final verse. The line "the pistol shaking in my hand, and all I can hear is the sound" was edited to replace the word "pistol" with "anger" video version.
