17 years after the original, Blink 182 have paid tribute to the ‘What’s My Age Again?’ video that helped catapult them to fame.

Now in their 40s, naked isn’t such a good look on Mark Hoppus, Tom DeLonge and Travis Barker, so they’re subbed out for nude college girls, who run the streets as the trio once did but with the genders reversed.

The band run into porn star Janine Lindermulder in a nurse’s outfit in the original - here her part is played by Adam Devine for some reason.

‘As part of the new Spotify original series, Flash Frame, Blink unveils the new video for their latest single, paying homage to a certain classic clip that helped catapult the band to early success,’ the video description reads.

It’s tempting to label it crass, but, frankly, in 2016 a dose of 2000 light-heartedness/juvenilia is quite welcome.

‘She’s Out of Her Mind’ is taken from Blink’s seventh album California, which saw Alkaline Trio’s Matt Skiba take replace DeLonge.
