I was actually looking for a different Alex Melton’s RUclips channel. This Alex, however, is white. Still, he’s good. I am having mixed emotions about this song done like this. It seems like there’s “distinct” Blink phases, and he didn’t really stick to any particular one. If he did “slow motion” by 3Eb, in the style of the album with the happy face on it, that would be pretty sick. Or if he did “paralyzer” by finger eleven in the style of Wolfmother or The Darkness, that would be impressive. Or “Mother” by Danzig as though he were Justin Timberlake circa 2002. Lol j/k.

This brings back so many mixed memories from the late 90’s. You nailed it. Now, do a cover of a blink song (like damnit) as if Third eye blind wrote it.

Yall don't understand. I was *obsessed* with 3EB when I was 12 in 1998, and *obsessed* with Blink when I was 15 in 2001. I am so confused and amazed and don't know how to feel about this! 😂😂
What a fantastically random and heart warming thing to become good at. And you, Sir, are quite good at what you do (playing multiple instruments, mixing that late 90s sound). Hats off. It's a weird project but you're fucking nailing it.
Wow. Third Eye Blind’s self-titled album was the first album I ever bought, and Blink might just be my favorite band of all time. So this is just so much feels all wrapped up into one.
I don't see many people talking about the beautiful blend of Travis and Scott's drumming styles. I can definitely hear Dude Ranch even though this is mostly TOYPAJ inspired.
Look, the word Genius ........it gets thrown around a lot. Way to easily. Having said that; this man is an actual genius. To pull of what he is doing with these covers successfully.......it takes the following 4 things. 1) An understanding of music that transcends genres and gets to the core of musical theory itself. 2) Raw talent, half of which leaves room for creativity, the other half which has been refined and is tuned into the genre being pulled off. 3) A deep understanding of the bands being covered. 4) Genius. Well done man. You got a new subscriber here. I also went and looked you up on Spotify. I'm glad to be a new fan.
There’s a certain sound or vibe or something from Blink I fell in love with as a teenager and I haven’t felt it in a while or since I heard your covers - so thanks for making me feel that again!
What you've done here is made the ultimate Blink 182 song. You nailed all the dope Barker-esque transitions and super creative fills, nailed the tight sound and production, and you made me fall in love with Semi Charmed Life all over again. Respect!
@@MrCaddySlash That is the nice thing about cover songs - every take can be fresh in unique. Alex wasn't the first person to cover Semi Charmed Life, but his cover is unique as I expect a Hey Jealousy cover would be.

Why do you sound more like Blink 182 than Blink 182?

I didnt see a didgeridoo. Just sayin'.
Also that was an epic mashup. Need on spotify.
OMG SO NICE TO SEE YOU HERE!!!! YOU WERE MY GUITAR TEACHER SINCE THE BEGGINING! THANK YOU SO MUCH
Marty bro your my teacher music is so freaking awsome
This exactly what my Thursday evening needed.
I don't see many people talking about the beautiful blend of Travis and Scott's drumming styles. I can definitely hear Dude Ranch even though this is mostly TOYPAJ inspired.
Look, the word Genius ........it gets thrown around a lot. Way to easily. Having said that; this man is an actual genius. To pull of what he is doing with these covers successfully.......it takes the following 4 things. 1) An understanding of music that transcends genres and gets to the core of musical theory itself. 2) Raw talent, half of which leaves room for creativity, the other half which has been refined and is tuned into the genre being pulled off. 3) A deep understanding of the bands being covered. 4) Genius. Well done man. You got a new subscriber here. I also went and looked you up on Spotify. I'm glad to be a new fan.
There’s a certain sound or vibe or something from Blink I fell in love with as a teenager and I haven’t felt it in a while or since I heard your covers - so thanks for making me feel that again!
No surprise here. Another banger. A+
"Bop" doesn't even begin to do this one justice.
0:58 The way Left Alex and Right Alex harmonize
This is a man I’d like to buy a beer, and talk about anything he wants to.
Omg I'm so glad this was recommended to me. You seriously sound just like Mark, but also Tom. It's like Blink-ception.
Would love to see you guys collab with Third Eye and many others from that Era, this was amazing, loved it. Thank you.
Tech YES City hey man fan of your channel! Cool to see you here
2 bad blink has to copy a cover
It's one guy haha
my fave youtuber is here!!
Hey guys, today we're checking out some blink-182 from aliexpress
What you've done here is made the ultimate Blink 182 song. You nailed all the dope Barker-esque transitions and super creative fills, nailed the tight sound and production, and you made me fall in love with Semi Charmed Life all over again. Respect!
The thing that is most impressive about this is I can tell exactly when he's singing as Mark and when he's singing as Tom! Great work!
"Hey Jealousy" by Gin Blossoms would be such a good tune in the vein of Blink... Just food for thought.
The Ergs *kind* of did that already
@@MrCaddySlash That is the nice thing about cover songs - every take can be fresh in unique. Alex wasn't the first person to cover Semi Charmed Life, but his cover is unique as I expect a Hey Jealousy cover would be.
I can't begin to say how much I need that to happen.
I didn’t know I need this or wanted this but now ... I want nothing else.
