Remaking it is the most Taylor Swift thing to do
facts
To do this for 7-8 years before you got the massive exposure during the pandemic really showcases your passion. Love everything you do and look forward to enjoying your creativity for years to come.
I can't believe you didn't name this We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together (Alex's Version). Congrats on 10 years and here's to another 10 of amazing music!
Keep killing it dude. I hate to admit how much, as a dude in his 30s, I want to hear you cover some more Taylor. Some Self Titled/Fearless era deeper cuts are begging for some pop punk angst. Tell Me Why and I'm Only Me When I'm With You are two in particular that stand out.
Tell Me Why would be INCREDIBLE
I've been waiting decades for I'm Only Me When I'm With You as a pop punk song
I agree with this so much!!! Please do Tell Me Why!!!
Just know that your long term fans have seen the crazy grind you've been at for all these years. I've said since I first discovered you with less than 500 subs that I can't think of any other RUclipsr who has worked harder than you. I get genuinely excited every time I see you upload. Keep at it...you keep getting better and better.
this is crazy -- I've loved that original one of yours since I first listened to it, and listening to them back to back, you can hear the difference of 10 years of experience. your old one is younger, more naive; this one is much more mature. love both, hard to top that first one, but somehow you manage to pull through as always.
Wow, first video. As a drummer who occasionally tries to play the guitar, extremely impressed when people can make a whole song by themselves. Keep it up!
Go through Alex’s account. Guys incredibly impressive with these. A real talent.
Thanks so much for the epilogue talk. Great to hear your thoughts and tenacity. 7 years. SEVEN YEARS. People don't comprehend the drive that that takes to work that hard and that long to "make stuff." Thank your parents for us, supporting you and taking you in so you could follow the dream. You're a fortunate man. Stay in it, for the love of the game, for the art, for the pure creativity, Alex. You're a hero to many.
Speaking of Tenacious...how about covering some D?
p.s. Who's doing camera? Great energetic work. Love it.

This was the song that led me to your channel!!! I was ELEVEN YEARS OLD! You were great back then, but you’ve added so much depth and richness to your musical style since!
Congrats on 10 years. I love what you do, man. In a big ol' internet full of musicians attempting song/style covers, you stand out FAR from the pack in skill, passion, and creativity. Thank you for this.
As a huge swift fan and was a fan of pop rock in the 2000s I couldn’t thank you more!!
Your channel is one of the only ones I actually come back to check out because I’m excited to see what your creativity brings out in cool covers.
Love it! Great stuff as always! Congrats on the 10 years, never stop playing music!
10 years? Damn....... Congrats Alex
Also, I still think this was always destined to be a pop punk track instead of a country song. Even when Swift did it, there was just this edge to it.
I saw her live on the 1989 tour, and she played this with a fender jazz master as “punk” as she could. It was the best song of the night
Here’s that live version Swift and her band did.

I was thinking recently this is about to turn 10 and it is literally one of my favorite covers you've ever done (even though I love all of your stuff) I literally come back to this one a couple times a month. Remake is just as sick, keep killing it homie
It's amazing to see how much you have improved over the last 10 years! Keep up the great work Alex!
The whole song is great, but I really appreciate the perfect guitar tones, perfectly layered and mixed.
It's an amazing cover! Happy 10 years Alex. Take some time to soak it in and celebrate. You're living your dream. That should be celebrated!!!
I remember the first one in the two tone room that was posted on /r/poppunkers.
Everything sounds so much bigger here... midas lives yall.
I have been a early subscriber and had your original cover on my mp3-Player back then 😅 great memories ✌️🙂 awesome Pop punk bands like Future Idiots ruled RUclips back in the days. Miss those tunes
Amazing retake on this cover! Love your pop punk stuff as that was where my music taste grew up from, and being sad to see pop punk off the mainstream. But then seeing how you changed modern pop into something more pop punk really just wowed me.
As someone who doesn't know where to start in terms of making music, have you considered making a video about how you go about recording one of your covers? It would be awesome to see your methods and thought processes, and maybe get some tips along the way.
Anyway cheers and congrats on 10 years! Keep making the good stuff :D
absolutely phenomenal bud, your content and your talent never cease to amaze. love the heart-to-hearts after the videos, super interesting to hear your process and where your head is at while making some of these videos/songs. love the music, love the passion, and look forward to the next one! congrats on 10 years and here's to the next 10 years ❤🍻
Thank you Alex! I actually started following you in 2020 and you helped me get the punk Get Good Drums for my Pro Tools EP project. You actually really inspire me and don’t ever change. You helped me stay strong in last couple years!! :)
Congrats on the 10 years! Can't wait to see what the next 10 years bring for you. Your content is incredible!
Hell yeah brother CONGRATS ON THE 10 YEARS
10 years of the Taylor swift song...
whoever is doing your videos are also killing it ! great work across the board
So awesome. Loved the heart-to-heart at the end. Phenomenal cover as always, congrats!
I play the original at work during closing time, happy 10th anniversary to a banger.
The intro was enough to grab my attention. Your covers are usually my playlist for when I'm at work. Thanks for the great music!
i wish i could find all these amazing songs and covers on spotify. also ... here is to another 10 years!!!
A lot of them are on there 🙂
Crazy it's been that long, that was the first video of yours I ever saw!
OMG This is amazing. Thank you so much for updating this AND Blank Space 😍 I hope both are available for purchase soon!
Loved seeing you again traction over the years!!! Congrats man!
I’ve followed you for some time now and you never cease to amaze me. You’re video and audio production skills are impressive. From one song writer and studio guy to another I appreciate the time you put into your art. As always, I look forward to the next one.
WHY YOU ARE SO UNDERRATED??!! you’re so talented & passionate, thanks for covering TS, it’s amazing!
I love the gritty slightly unpolished first version it's one of my favourites, I've been wanting you to remake it for a while now. You've nailed it.
Thank you so much for sharing your talents! I've played drums for 30 years now and I've tried guitar but just can't get it. So I tip my hat to you! Great covers :)
this cover meant so much to me back then ! inspired me in so many ways. i really love seeing all the progress you've done in this years
You’re one of my favorite working artists, thanks for all the music!
Looking for swift pop punk covers was how I discovered you. Happy to see you head back to it!
I’ve listened to your original cover of this song for years. Revamping this song feels like an awesome way to show your growth and celebrate 10 years of kick ass music. Congrats man!
So glad you made this, because for some reason I had never gone back through the WAY back history!! love your channel, love your music, keep being you!!
This was incredible. Sounds so perfect and professional, hit out of the park!
been following since the cher lloyd cover, it's amazing to see your growth! cheers!
One of those covers you really hope the original artist gets to see. This is so good! Love the original and love this just as much.
Oh yeah. Swift and her band did this live version and I wish they could all hear Alex rockin’ out.

Alex, my favourite content of yours is when you explain your process. The prologue of this video is great. Thank you for sharing!
i think i found you from a blink 182 freefallin cover a few years back. love the original of this for the cracks in your voice where it almost breaks into scream. glad to see some of the aggression stayed :D
What a glorious day, a new Alex Melton song ( rework!)
I remember you chucking out the first version all those years ago, love your stuff man, the growth is insane!
Really great to see how far you have come Alex. I remember watching some of the country cover you made early on and think wow this guy hasa something. Glad to see how far you have come and never give that up!
Both version are good in their own right. The new one sounds better, but is a little softer, while the original is more aggressive, but sound harsher.
That said, man 10 years already?!
Alex oozes talent!
CARAMMMBA!!! Que evolução brutaaaal cara!!! Sou fã número 1 aqui do Brasil!! Continue fazendo isso!!! Inspiração demais!
Way to stay at it bro. Love what you do!
This is so good! It's amazing to see how much you've grown as an artist. I loved this cover and I really hope that it is coming to spotify soon 🙏
Keep on rockin' man!
WOW BRO I MISSED THIS UPLOAD. YOUR ORIGINAL COVER GOT ME IN TO POP PUNK BACK THEN! Ty bro ily and keep going, you’re going hard. Support till the end!
This specific cover was actually stuck in my head when I was at work. Your voice is incredible Alex and it makes me laugh! Not even to mention how metal the drums and guitar is
dude you're dope i hadn't found you until last year, but i enjoy and listen to your content regularly. thank you, keep on making beautiful music brother!
He. Never. Misses.
Love you & your work bro. Been here a minute and haven't regretted a second of it.
10 years! Wow! What a great accomplishment. Congratulations!! 🥳
"CLASSIC" REMAKE pleasee! i love the original cover of it too. And, if you could put the originals and the remakes on an EP on spotify that would be so dope! love your work, Alex, truly enjoy all the covers AND originals. Keepin it real!
Has it been 10 years? Damn, this was the first cover I saw you make, then you went off to do your country bands. Always has beena fan since I first came across this original Cher Llyod cover.
You're doing such a great job. Keep it up!
Love these covers! I want more of your originals!!! Some of those are still on on every day playlist.
Congrats on 10 years man. I’ve been doing RUclips since January 2008
I cant wait to go to your shows!!! Gunna be siiick
Keep going another 10 years, your style is impeccable for pop punk crossovers.
oh fuck, it's been 10 years?
glad to be with you on this ride
You know I LIIIVVEEE for these Tay-Swizzle covers.
You’re inspiring Alex, that’s it. Thank to YOU for the amazing work and passion and talent and everything you give this community. Here’s to 10 and 10 and 10 years more.
The song that set me on Alex. Beautiful.
no freaking way. you mean i've been here for a decade????? your talent is like a fine wine, my friend ❤
I love your original arrangement, and I love this, too! Congrats on 10 years! Here's to many more!
Dude…your mixes are always spot on🖤 Great job, as always!
This is very wholesome, Alex. You evolved. Thank you for doing this for the last 10 years! Thank you for not quitting on your first 7-8 years of struggle! Youre a Legend.
this was cool! but one thing I liked about the first version was the ad lib "Like forever" line you did, it felt like more of a live performance vibe. it was still neat to see how your cover style evolved
It hasn’t been 10 years. It hasn’t been 10 years. I refuse to believe it. 😭
I love your "what?!" Well, and every other second.
You hit the nail 100% on the head with this one. I've heard that in order to cover a song successfully, you must perform it like it was never anyone else's song and I think you did that well with this one.
Tbh Taylors songs, especially of this era, have so much teenage or highschool angst in them this is just a super natural fit!
Loved this! Loved the 22 year-old Alex's version as well!
Quality content as always Alex! I would really love a video breaking down how you get such a killer clean sound! I feel like I could spend 10 years trial and error and not get anywhere close xD love your stuff man!
I remember commenting on that original and ripping it off of RUclips to listen to constantly. I definitely remember thinking you deserved all the success, and I’m happy to have seen it happen! Cheers man, congrats!
Alex I'm begging you an I'm Not Okay cover 🙏 keep up the great work man
I'm really glad you didn't rush "celebrating 10 years". This was awesome.
yaaasssss! 1:17
that single hit in the cymbals' top!
so punky (for me it is ☺️just so pre-new found gloryish)
wow the exact cover that helped me discover you - i can’t believe 10 years has flown by!
Really glad I found your channel.
Love this and love you man. Keep it up 🔥❤
so friggin clean dude. never fail to impress me with these genre-benders.
It feels like you leaned more into the pop-punk style on the remake. Great job!
10 years? :O Whoa! Awesome. :D
The glow up is real
You’re a real one Alex! Good work my dude
Your videos and watching you grow as an artist has been ahhhhhhhmazing. Cheers
Congrats man. Love your music. Keep up the good work!
Well now I need to bloody scroll down a million videos to find the original! Ah man. So good. As always. So so enjoyable
Love this! keep them coming tunes, your a very talented musician! 😉👍
