• On May 4, 2021, Blink-182 guitarist Tom DeLonge married his girlfriend, Rose-Marie Berryman. The pair were engaged for over a year and a half before she became his second wife.
  
  On "Fell In Love," DeLonge rewinds to the sweet memories of when they met.
• DeLonge takes us back to those "lonely" nights before Rose-Marie came into the picture. He recalls their first encounter at a party – a casual "hello" – before he got drunk.
  
  DeLonge and Rose-Marie started as friends until one night he invited her over. As they played songs, she rested her head on his shoulder, they made out, and that's when they knew they'd fallen in love.
• DeLonge wrote the song with his Blink-182 bandmates Travis Barker and Mark Hoppus, Barker's frequent collaborator, Nick Long, and songwriter/producer Ryan Tedder (Beyoncé's "Halo," Adele's "Rumour Has It," Ellie Goulding's "Burn").
  
  Barker, Long, and Tedder produced the track.
• The song interpolates The Cure's 1985 single "Close To Me" (the UK band's frontman Robert Smith gets a writing credit on "Fall In Love" as a result).
  
  DeLonge is a big fan of The Cure. He had the original idea for Blink's acoustic song "I Miss You" after listening to The Cure's 1983 single "The Love Cats."
  
  Another of Blink's songs, "All Of This," was also musically inspired by "The Love Cats" - Robert Smith sings on that one.
• "Fell in Love" was released as a single from Blink's ninth album, One More Time..., on October 13, 2023. The album marks the return of founding member DeLonge after seven years away from the band.
