Nine days after surviving a jet crash that killed four people, former blink-182 drummer Travis Barker has been released from the Georgia hospital where he was recovering from third degree burns. "Travis Barker was discharged from the Joseph M. Still Burn Center at Doctors Hospital this morning," a spokesperson said. "He left in good condition." DJ AM, who also escaped the fiery crash in South Carolina, left the hospital late last week. Us reports that DJ AM updated his Facebook page over the weekend, saying "Adam Goldstein is the luckiest guy alive." A blown tire was blamed for the crash, which claimed the lives of Barker's assistant and bodyguard along with the plane's pilot and co-pilot.

“Youth Knows No Pain”

Lykke Li | 2011

“Like on 'Youth Knows No Pain' — we are the ones that should demonstrate, because we can take it,” Likke Li said. “We can pierce ourselves, take Ecstasy, dance all night and still go to work at our McDonald's jobs.” Despite the hedonistic sentiment in the song, the Swedish singer also admitted in hindsight her youth had repercussions. “I remember when I was 18-19 and feeling that I know it all,” Li said. “I always feel that I know it all. But that song is about realizing you don’t, and reflecting, ‘Boy, if I only knew what would follow.’”
