Because we learn that country music doesn’t ACTUALLY suck, just the mainstream bullshit with lame lyrics. When it’s actually got some body and meaningful messages, that mandolin be slappin
2 things: -this was your best Tom voice in awhile, which is saying something, because they’re all pretty on point. -the sung triplets in Mark’s voice, second verse I think, were sick. You can tell it’s not a page out of the Blink playbook, but sounds like something they would try in 2021 as rap and pop punk continue to crossover.
Can we just all take a moment to appreciate that Alex's audio production and output is greater than a lot of charting music? Seriously, the guy is top 0.1% at what he does!
Considering it's already written by 1/3 of Blink... it was primed for this cover. Music For Aliens is even more so, as it truly has a Blink vibe already.
@@samuelhernandez4135 I know. His style has changed a bit over the years, though, and I just meant this sounds more like Enema of the State or Take Off Your Pants and Jacket than his more recent collaborations.
It pisses me off that you don't have more subs than you do. You are literally one of the most talented dudes here. Thank you for another banger. We don't deserve you.
Alex, in celebration of AvAs new album and current tour can you do another AvA style cover please?! You are so talented and always do a good job. Your Ocean Avenue AvA cover is just perfect.
Alex fuckin bringing it again. This isn't easy to pull off but you do a spot on job. From the vocals, to the drumming, to the arrangement. This might be favorite thing you've put out.
At first I used to comment saying your Tom impersonation is amazing and now I'm here to say that your Mark impersonation is amazing too. If I close my eyes it sounds like I am listening to Blink back in my bedroom as a teenager. Thank you Alex
I love your singing voice. Its so nice to hear pop punk being sung from the chest and not the nose, that's honestly the thing that keeps me from getting into most pop punk bands. everyone sounds the same with their high nasally voices and it drives me crazy. That probably why I like KennyHoopla so much too.
I hate to admit I really enjoy the original version of this song, but damn man you nail these songs so well and made it even better. You pull blink off so well
Thank you for uploading! I miss having jams with all my friends. This song reminds me of a song from one of my games. Test Drive Unlimited 2. Dad, I'm Sorry. (Smashtrax - Dad, I'm Sorry TDU Soundtrack )
Definitely the most blink sounding blink style cover you've done since One Week and Semi Charmed. The riffs, drums, and guitar tones all sound identical to TOYPAJ, and the voices are super spot on
I am at the point where I literally just auto like when you come out with something new because I realize the work that has been put into the new content. Superb.
I would love to hear the new York CITAAEEEEYYY at 0:44 in the way like "where are youuuu" But mate, this is amazing. Love the original, but also this cover. Just like anything you do, it's sick. Keep going. Stay healthy❤️
My daughter LOVES MGK and I really don’t like him much but I love me some pop punk. I just called her in to listen to this and we both loved it. Thanks man!!
Stream it now, confuse and annoy your friends - open.spotify.com/playlist/6zRWQZExlnVHUjjLwOnM2j?si=48fd89bc113148a7
Keep it up man. Love your vids, esp the blink covers
what if you wrote your own liriks to these songs and did an album
:)
Is I
I do that at my job all the time. play covers and parodies
You're basically putting out a new Blink album every week!
well yeah but it would be awesome if there was a propper album of this stuff
I say keep’m coming!!!
Totally. He could just put original lyrics to these tunes and it would be the sickest album.
@@Fuzigish8 yeah tell him to do that
Someone's gotta do it 🤷🏽♀️
Why is this guy so good at making anything that perfect early 2000s pop punk sound.
Because we learn that country music doesn’t ACTUALLY suck, just the mainstream bullshit with lame lyrics. When it’s actually got some body and meaningful messages, that mandolin be slappin
@@Happylachia this aint country bruh
Best emo era of all time
SCIENCE!!!
@@Happylachia what?
i swear if blink doesn't let alex open a show I'm gonna keep complaining and stuff
Just put him in the f'in band at this point...
😂 keep complaining and stuff!!!
It wouldn't work. He can't play 3 instruments at the same time.
He'd make them look bad
How is he going to play all the instruments?
2 things:
-this was your best Tom voice in awhile, which is saying something, because they’re all pretty on point.
-the sung triplets in Mark’s voice, second verse I think, were sick. You can tell it’s not a page out of the Blink playbook, but sounds like something they would try in 2021 as rap and pop punk continue to crossover.
I mean they have “the party song” tho
@@ricoalphen1693 those aren’t triplets
semichamred tom was more accurate :P
Can we just all take a moment to appreciate that Alex's audio production and output is greater than a lot of charting music? Seriously, the guy is top 0.1% at what he does!
That drumming is so Take Off Your Pants And Jacket 😍
Awesome as always!
this is now the original version of this song, i don't care that it's a cover
hell yeah
Eww no it's not!
YuB!
Big no
100x better than the original.
Would love to hear a four years strong styled cover of one of MGKs songs
Oooo or a Y’allternative of Catastrophe
@@Happylachia I second this motion.
Title Song by FYS - make it happen!
Please
@Damian Russell this man wins thus thread
These Blink 182 rewrites just put a smile on my face. keep them going!!! :)
I've never heard the original so this just feels like I'm listening to a cut blink song ❤️ keep up the good work man
That's because MGK's pop punk stuff is basically just Blink.
Same
@@AprehamLincoln it helps that travis layed out all the drum tracks on that album
Hate to admit it but Machine Gun is decent sometimes. I’m just glad someone from the new generation is keeping pop punk alive
@@WesDaviestravel there is a whole sub culture of rap pop punk with some emo mixed in
Considering it's already written by 1/3 of Blink... it was primed for this cover. Music For Aliens is even more so, as it truly has a Blink vibe already.
Concert for aliens* but I agree with you on that one
Dude, that drumming is sick. Nailed the classic Travis feel.
Travis actually wrote the drums to this song
@@samuelhernandez4135 I know. His style has changed a bit over the years, though, and I just meant this sounds more like Enema of the State or Take Off Your Pants and Jacket than his more recent collaborations.
I haven’t heard a Blink song that made me feel this happy in such a damn long time. You NAILED this Alex. Thank you.
It pisses me off that you don't have more subs than you do. You are literally one of the most talented dudes here. Thank you for another banger. We don't deserve you.
Blink should’ve hired Alex instead of Matt Skiba
I love Matt but when you're right you're right.
@Tim Rolle Alkaline Trio never left.
Lol no
They should've hired MGK, in honesty.
@@dons1932 MGK is an awful singer with minimal guitar skills. He could never sing or play toms parts, nor could he get along with others in a band
Alex, in celebration of AvAs new album and current tour can you do another AvA style cover please?! You are so talented and always do a good job. Your Ocean Avenue AvA cover is just perfect.
Ok I have to look that up now
It really is amazing! I could listen to this guy all day and I have before
I can't tell if you're trying to do Tom or Mark's voice, it sounds like a blend of both. I like it
Both. Shirt, cap and bass = Mark. T-shirt, beanie and guitar = Tom.
@@tobias9802 oh shit I never noticed that
Your drumming was awesome on this! Great job!
Man, you are literally my favorite person on CZcams right now
I just need an album from you doing Blink. Your Tom is scary good, down to the moves he would do and the attire.
The fact that this sounds exactly like all members of blink 182 blows my mind
If you made an album of songs like this I’d buy it so fast. Love your Blink style covers!
Alex fuckin bringing it again. This isn't easy to pull off but you do a spot on job. From the vocals, to the drumming, to the arrangement. This might be favorite thing you've put out.
Your Blink 182 songs are TOP! Please continue!
youre incredibly talented, more MGK stuff please
I love the new MGK record, but this version definitely hits harder. Nice work.
They really need to have a blink 182 reacting to your videos Alex. Definitely need to have blink 182 ft Alex
At first I used to comment saying your Tom impersonation is amazing and now I'm here to say that your Mark impersonation is amazing too. If I close my eyes it sounds like I am listening to Blink back in my bedroom as a teenager. Thank you Alex
Your videos bring me back to my golden years and make me the happiest I’ve ever been. Please keep making more.
I get soooo excited every time you come out with new blink songs. Killin it dude, you're a legend
How talented is this guy to not only play all instruments and sing..serious talent!
Would love to see one day a full rendition of Free Fallin’ Blink 182. That video got me subscribed to you channel :)
Check the channel again my friend, not sure if you've seen yet :)
@@westonpierson2532 oh yeah, saw it the day he uploaded it :)
You forgot to pronounce it as " I sweayearrr to gooaayyeeaad, I cant get enough of yyeeeaaaaaiiitt" for tom lol.
I’m glad he didn’t… when it’s super exaggerated it’s almost offensive. This was his best “Tom” voice in awhile mostly for that reason.
Nooo🤣🤣🤣
I love your singing voice. Its so nice to hear pop punk being sung from the chest and not the nose, that's honestly the thing that keeps me from getting into most pop punk bands. everyone sounds the same with their high nasally voices and it drives me crazy. That probably why I like KennyHoopla so much too.
I love you... wait I mean yooo this song slaps and your impressions of Tom and Mark are pretty spot on man I love it!!!!
This channel is my favorite B-Sides album
I hate to admit I really enjoy the original version of this song, but damn man you nail these songs so well and made it even better. You pull blink off so well
Does this guy have his own songs? I’d love to hear them
he has them in his Spotify Channel: open.spotify.com/artist/2Y3LFSXIRTjJZyjIA22qJA?si=b9_u5GoQRm-G8T_BZ21neg&nd=1
Check out stay in love and in the sun
This is honestly incredible, Top 5 Alex covers! Love it!
I hit the like button 30 seconds in.. I needed this. Love it. Thank you!!!
Your insane dude, love your videos keep em coming. Absolute talent
Thank you for uploading! I miss having jams with all my friends. This song reminds me of a song from one of my games. Test Drive Unlimited 2. Dad, I'm Sorry. (Smashtrax - Dad, I'm Sorry TDU Soundtrack )
This is awesome! Gives me that old school Blink feel... Love it!
Definitely the most blink sounding blink style cover you've done since One Week and Semi Charmed. The riffs, drums, and guitar tones all sound identical to TOYPAJ, and the voices are super spot on
Shredddd my dude! Another banger! 1:30 fill is so slick, keep pumping these blink style vids out brotha🤟🏽
Your content is some of the best on CZcams bro please never stop lol
The real 4th man of Blink, one day I hope you actually get to collaborate with them on something

Love that you keep coming up in my youtube recommended ❤️
DUDE THIS IS AMAZING, YOURE SO TALENTED!!
Dude spot on! 👌 very well done 🤌
You are a BEAST on the drums. The little part at 1:25 was sick
My neighbors love Alex Melton
whether they like it or not.
Absolutely killing it! Your version is better than the original! Keep doing what you’re doing dude!
This brings something in the pop punk world full circle in a most heartwarming fashion.
Bro. I Love You. I didnt Know that i Needed this Covers so Hard
Bro. That's really good!
everyone is commenting about your tom & mark impressions (which are spot on) but I'm here for the perfect travis drum beats. so good
I am at the point where I literally just auto like when you come out with something new because I realize the work that has been put into the new content. Superb.
I would love to hear the new York CITAAEEEEYYY at 0:44 in the way like "where are youuuu"
But mate, this is amazing. Love the original, but also this cover. Just like anything you do, it's sick. Keep going. Stay healthy❤️
You’ve gotta make S.O.S. By The Glorious Sons the pop punk anthem it was always meant to be. PLEASE
AGREED 1000 TIMES OVER
This except Panic Attack by Glorious Sons
Oh yeah!! Thanks for the reminder of glorious sons!!
Whole song is awesome killer job on the drums
MAN THAT BREAKDOWN! How do you continue to do covers better than the originals? Every time.
Yeeees, I’m so glad I just found out about you!
Too late you gotta go
Damn two talented people are coming together
First bit reminds me of every time I look for you my fav blink song
This is one of the best. Arguably better than the original. Keep it up
DUUUUUDE!!! you bring my childhood back.!!!! Please keep doing these! Amazing talent keep it up bro!

My daughter LOVES MGK and I really don’t like him much but I love me some pop punk. I just called her in to listen to this and we both loved it. Thanks man!!
Any Melton MGK cover is a bop. Guaranteed.
Dude you're so talented wtf🤯
Holy shit, as soon as it opened I could tell it was very blink inspired. Amazing job my man!
That multi vocal half time part at the end was stellar. And very Mmhmm era Relient K sounding. Loved it.
This is absolutely amazing!
Holy fkuc this slaps so hard. I love this, so well done
Dude you are killing it
Your stuff always sounds great man! What's your vocal mic, recording chain, and interface?
I love how his outfits are every archetype of pop punk all on one person in different scenes of the video. So good
Just had a sweet wake up dance party to this. Reminds me of playing Blink before going to school back in the day. Thanks for all the you do, my dude 🖤
Oh man, I love it! Great job.
You’re so damn talented man!!
this is fire man, great job
This slaps great work man!
every time I look for you the sun goes down vibe!
