"Down" is a song by the American rock band Blink-182, released to radio on May 10, 2004, as the third single from the group's 2003 untitled album. The track shares writing credits between guitarist Tom DeLonge, bassist Mark Hoppus, and drummer Travis Barker, with DeLonge serving as its primary composer. DeLonge conceived the song around a vivid mental image of a couple in a car during rainfall. The song explores the tension between desire and uncertainty in relationships. Built around a moody atmosphere, the song layers electronic elements with a discordant guitar riff, piano textures, and drum and bass influence. The song was produced by Jerry Finn.
