"I Really Wish I Hated You" is a song recorded by American rock band Blink-182. The song was released on September 6, 2019 through Columbia Records, as the fifth single from the band's eighth studio album Nine. It was released as a single two weeks before the album was released. It was written by bassist Mark Hoppus, drummer Travis Barker, and guitarist Matt Skiba, as well as producers Andrew Watt and John Feldmann, and songwriters Ali Tamposi and Nathan Perez.

Background

"I Really Wish I Hated You" is a collaboration with producer Andrew Watt and songwriters Ali Tamposi and Nathan Perez. Watt sings and plays guitar on the track, and Perez is also credited with guitar. John Feldmann, one of the producers of Nine, also contributed production work, instrumentation and programming, and guitar. The song was mainly recorded at Opra Studios, Barker's studio space in North Hollywood, California.

Skiba and Hoppus regarded it as one of the toughest songs to develop for Nine, noting in an interview that it went through up to five different iterations. Skiba acknowledged that "there was a lot of push and pull from all different sides, and there were a lot of very talented and opinionated cooks in the kitchen from different musical backgrounds" that made finalizing the song difficult. In the end, the trio "chose the version that sounds the most like Blink, while still challenging the boundaries or lack thereof of Blink."[2]

Release

The band played the song live for the first time on September 12, 2019 at the Xcel Energy Center in Saint Paul, Minnesota.[3] The performance was recorded and later broadcast on ESPN's Monday Night Football Genesis Halftime Show on September 23, 2019.

Commercial performance

Following the song's performance on Monday Night Football, it entered the top 20 of the US iTunes song sales chart.[4]

"I Really Wish I Hated You" debuted at number 3 of the US Hot Rock Songs, at number 4 of the US Rock Digital Songs and number 6 of the US Alternative Digital Songs.
