Damn, didn’t think an off the wall comment on YT would hit me in the feels like this, but as someone who lived the reckless punk lifestyle at 18 and is now a 38 year old dad... damn.
Man, probably one of the best comments I have read in a while. The change in the cadence of this really does give you that vibe. As someone that jammed to this in High School when this released and to hearing this version, it really hits the nail on the head. Where did the time go indeed.
@@codycast at first I thought it was something to do with the beat but I realised it means it’s done in the style of a halftime act for football or baseball or something
As someone who loves Blink's chord progressions but gets a little tired of the constant fast pace of a lot of their songs, this scratches the itch just perfectly.
There’s an entire genre like this from about 2005 to 2010. I wish I could give you some bands to check out, but I was mostly listening to post hardcore during that time.
Noticed, how drastically has the song changed? I mean like.. it emits totally different emotions now. So cool. That's a respectively well done job, Alex.
Damn dude, this has some emotion behind it. Love the second verse “I know”. Thanks for this. Edit: This gives me “Boys Like Girls” vibes from that first record (which was gold).
Please consider MCR's 'I'm Not Okay (I Promise)' for the next half-time drum cover!! These are absolutely some of my favorites from you. Keep up the great work!!!
If only live half time shows could be as legendary with Alex Melton playing covers in half time...😌 Gives us all a reason to believe in good music again
I turned 30 a couple of weeks ago, my friends put together a show and played a whole set of Misfits covers. I haven't played drums for like half a year but at the end they told me to get behind the drums and just said "All the small things, you got this". I did, we nailed it.
The groove on this is so deep. Changes the whole feel of the song, makes you actually think about the song and feel the words in a real way. And your fills bro, so so good. Thanks man, this is so much fun, please keep it up!
You know, an old mate of mine who was the singer of the band Moose Blood , would 100 percent love your work dude. As do I. Best thing to happen to pop punk/ emo since pop punk emo 😌🤙🏻
whoa! Alex vocals sounds just like Moose Blood's vocalist. that's what made me subscribe to him in the first place because I thought he was the one who sang "knuckles", one of my fav! 😅
@@gals.182 Haha yeah Eddy was mostly inspired by Tom Delonge when he was creating Moose Blood!. We used to work together at a clothing store in Canterbury England. We also once won a karaoke bar tab for our rendition of “all the small things” sung as a duet 🤣🤙🏻
@@Neco42 that's crazy! no wonder why I immediatly love Moose Blood songs at first listen. but where's Eddy now? too bad about what happened to the band. I hope they'll coming back
@@gals.182 Eddy I believe works for the same company as the guitarist Mark. (Mark used to be my boss at that clothes store we all worked at 🤣) but it’s doubtful the band will come back. Eddy is a family man these days. Who knows though…maybe if there was enough incentive 🤷🏻♂️ Mark has a new band though called Hurtless if you wanted to check them out :) similar sort of emo pop punk vibes.
@@Neco42 thats too bad! 💔 I love eddy vocals... Pls send my regards from Indonesia if you ever meet him again, maybe he didn't realize that many people around the world still listen to his song and missing his voice 🙏
I love how these are always so much more than just switching up drums. Alex is definitely putting his own original style into these covers...and I'm here for it 👌
I have grown up with blink 182. Since a young child and I'm now 33 and they have always been there thru the best and the worst. I like all of your covers but this song holds a special place in my heart so very well done.
I was going to click away when I realized it's not literally the same drumming at half time, then immediately realized it's a really good full-blown cover. Awesome job, buddy!
alex. Bro. This is so good. These arrangements give me chills. I've been inspired by your art over and over... I've also been inspired by Julien Solomita over and over. To see the rat behavior hoodie was a worlds collide moment. You're making art... and we are all here for it.
Half Time drums work so well on so many songs, it really opens up a lot of possibilities and reimaginations of songs. Keep it up dude, you're killing it!
I'M LOVING these new half-time drums tracks, It adds a whole new groove and swing to songs I already loved but it just changes the feel of the song so much and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE it! You're awesome Alex!
Man, shut up with all your amazing talent and general awesomery - this is one of my favorites of yours in a long time. These half-time drum videos are fantastic! The along with "late night" and then the quiet "I know" - just... ahhhhh so good! Keep up the great work, please!

Best series you've done so far. I'm a hardcore blink fan and I actually don't like the original song, but I love your version. Maybe half time drums should've been there from the beginning!
You're in a position where you can either be the source or perpetuator of nostalgia for people who thrive on emotional punk music. Please capitalize on this and give the world what you're capable of giving.
btw ps had over 50 All The Small Things trap / half time remixes, even had a couple of dubstep ones ... all total obvious shit, but just mentioning it because half time pop punk anthems have been WAY overdone.

Half-time Blink-182 is basically Angels and Airwaves lol.
my exact thought lol
With less space sounds lol
Spot on! 💯
🎯
Exactly!
Half time drum pop punk makes everything sound like dashboard confessional.
hahaha facts!
Or my chemical romance.
“Anywhere else but here” by Simple Plan lyrics fits perfectly perfect in this instrumental
Spider-Man 2 vibes
Woah! 🤯
I guess we need some double time covers to balance things out.
Uh, yes
👀
Double time covers of dubstep songs
@@kevinkibble8342 so many dubstep songs already do double time for the second drop.
th-cam.com/video/6My95q82YXE/w-d-xo.html
It went from “life’s short, f**k it lets party” to “damn….where’d the time go”
Damn, didn’t think an off the wall comment on YT would hit me in the feels like this, but as someone who lived the reckless punk lifestyle at 18 and is now a 38 year old dad... damn.
Man, probably one of the best comments I have read in a while. The change in the cadence of this really does give you that vibe. As someone that jammed to this in High School when this released and to hearing this version, it really hits the nail on the head. Where did the time go indeed.
Damn that hit hard
Damb man, you're so right
“Wait… this is ‘life’? This is what you have to do now? Forever? Say it ain’t so! I’m… not ready to go…”
Digging this half-time drums series
Need on Spotify
Agreed on both accounts
Can’t wait to see Alex & the meltons 😂 play a half time show with a set full of half time drums songs
Can you explain “half time” drums?
@@codycast at first I thought it was something to do with the beat but I realised it means it’s done in the style of a halftime act for football or baseball or something
These half-time videos always make me think of the end credits of a movie.
Me too!
Same!
As someone who loves Blink's chord progressions but gets a little tired of the constant fast pace of a lot of their songs, this scratches the itch just perfectly.
Blink has one chord progression
There’s an entire genre like this from about 2005 to 2010. I wish I could give you some bands to check out, but I was mostly listening to post hardcore during that time.
A perfect example of how much influence drums and rhythm have on a song.
Noticed, how drastically has the song changed? I mean like.. it emits totally different emotions now. So cool. That's a respectively well done job, Alex.
Kinda has an Angel and Airwaves vibe 🧐
I mean he also changed the guitar leads, the tempo, the entire composition pretty much. It wasn't just the drums.
Yup
Damn dude, this has some emotion behind it. Love the second verse “I know”. Thanks for this.
Edit: This gives me “Boys Like Girls” vibes from that first record (which was gold).
That harmony is so dope!
I sense Fall Out Boy vibe
That vocoded "I know" gives me major early 00's Hellogoodbye vibes
Yep. Definitely favorite part of the song right alongside the part between 0:01 and 2:57.
Yet again, well played.
@@brendanfisher 🎯🎯🎯
Please don’t ever stop making these! Maybe next: “Sugar, We’re Goin Down” halftime? Love you, mean it
It's already in half time?
He already covered it: th-cam.com/video/yGCOdgLCGHA/w-d-xo.html
@@soundbites1152 but in a completely different style. It's awesome though
Please consider MCR's 'I'm Not Okay (I Promise)' for the next half-time drum cover!!
These are absolutely some of my favorites from you. Keep up the great work!!!
This dude is literally a one man band i feel like he doesnt get enough credit for that
If only live half time shows could be as legendary with Alex Melton playing covers in half time...😌 Gives us all a reason to believe in good music again
You rock, Alex. Please continue, especially with Blink. Thanks.
Dude, the fill back into the last chorus. Perfection.
I turned 30 a couple of weeks ago, my friends put together a show and played a whole set of Misfits covers. I haven't played drums for like half a year but at the end they told me to get behind the drums and just said "All the small things, you got this". I did, we nailed it.
The fact the ending went half of the half time was half-ception and I loved every second of it
The "I know" was so unexpected and satisfying! This is an excellent cover. I'm really digging these half-time drums!
That’s exactly when I smashed the like button!
Absolutely love the half-time series man. Every video makes me want to write or play. Thanks for being awesome!
The groove on this is so deep. Changes the whole feel of the song, makes you actually think about the song and feel the words in a real way. And your fills bro, so so good. Thanks man, this is so much fun, please keep it up!

I’m a simple man, Alex posts a video and I block off my entire day to rewatch everything he’s ever made
That fill before the last chorus is amazing
As another drummer, I’ve really loved all these halftime covers! Truly adds a different layer to the tunes. Keep ‘em coming Alex 🤘
It amazes me how incredibly talented one person can be. Keep up the great work. Loved the song, half time drums completely changed the vibe.
I'll literally never dislike something you make. Insane work as always.
The tom sequence in the bridge is the most ludicrously satisfying thing to watch ever. It's so smooth.
Those harmonies man, your harmonies always slap
Getting some “Sugar we’re going’ down” vibes from this for some reason. Really liking this series dude! Keep it up!
If I close my eyes...I'm back in 2004 wearing my vans and skater pants... thanks man!
I have grown up with blink 182. Since a young child and I'm now 33 and they have always been there thru the best and the worst. I like all of your covers but this song holds a special place in my heart so very well done.
BRO. this is actually super fuckin epic. i would sing this shit. dude. this sounds so epic and like, moving. so hyped i fuckin found you.
another banger
There is so much more depth in this version. Terrific transformation of an already great song❤❤❤
I can’t believe how much that one change alters the feel of the song. Well done sir.
Keep coming back to this throughout the week. Absolutely love it.
Blink is one of my all time favorites…if not my all time favorite…this makes me feel like I’m listening to them for the first time. Magic.
Props for the incredible drum production on these, you've obviously worked incredibly hard and it shows! Sounds so crisp it's awesome
Man this has a worship style feel to it, I dig it!
True!
This is incredible
I was going to click away when I realized it's not literally the same drumming at half time, then immediately realized it's a really good full-blown cover. Awesome job, buddy!

I really love how transformative these half-time drum covers are! Killing it, as always
Half Time drums work so well on so many songs, it really opens up a lot of possibilities and reimaginations of songs. Keep it up dude, you're killing it!

Very talented! Sing, play drums, AND guitar! Truly amazing! Beautiful rendition of Blink-182 song 😢❤
You made 'All the Small Things' into a anthem
Just here to leave my usual Alex Melton Appreciation comment. The man is a master.
These half time drum videos are the best ones yet!! Obsessed!
Man, shut up with all your amazing talent and general awesomery - this is one of my favorites of yours in a long time. These half-time drum videos are fantastic! The along with "late night" and then the quiet "I know" - just... ahhhhh so good! Keep up the great work, please!

As someone who got kind of tired of how overplayed that song is, I love this version.
Oh man! This is so good!
Endless supply of brilliance Alex Melton has. Very underrated drummer too. Wow.
It is literally insane how talented you are at each and every instrument. Well done; keep it up!
I am LOVING these half time drum covers. Please keep em comin!
And congrats on being signed, you definitely deserve it.
This is fire mate 👌
I never realized... Sugar We're Goin Down could just be All The Small Things with different drums omfg
Absolutely Boys Like Girls vibes, which makes it technically the 2nd in a row-- amazing!!
Best series you've done so far. I'm a hardcore blink fan and I actually don't like the original song, but I love your version. Maybe half time drums should've been there from the beginning!
2:14 I see you my guy. Another masterpiece. 👏👏
This is incredible. It's so smooth and those details are just awesome. I can't even imagine all the work that goes into these covers. Keep it up!
Having a hard time these days, your Videos making it better! Thank you ❤ i love Covers who habe their own Touch! Youre doing an amazing job!
Dude this is amazing it makes the song more chill which sounds way better to me! Great work!
Makes it sound so sad. But it is glorious.
Absolutely great cover!!!!
please keep doing the half time drums, fucking love these
You're in a position where you can either be the source or perpetuator of nostalgia for people who thrive on emotional punk music. Please capitalize on this and give the world what you're capable of giving.
Absolutely phenomenal.
Alex, this series is so perfect. Thank you for bringing the fire every single time.
These half time and double time covers have been so so good.
For a second there I thought you were gonna start off with "Am I more than you bargained for..."
Can you do sugar we’re going down
Some of the best remakes and covers ever!!!
Just the video I needed today. So happy the Tom voice made comeback for this
some huge country star is actually gonna make this
I could watch/listen to you cover Blink all day!
Amazing
smooth... well done, Mr. Melton
PS: really enjoy the drum interlude at 1:50
Alex Melton + blink-182 = 🐐
Sounds a little better than all of the 10's trap remixes that were made for it, but ngl while I
btw ps had over 50 All The Small Things trap / half time remixes, even had a couple of dubstep ones ... all total obvious shit, but just mentioning it because half time pop punk anthems have been WAY overdone.
Holy crap this is excellent. What a cool twist on a classic.
This gave me chills, that's how awesome it is 🤘🏻🤙🏻🤍
SWEET... I have to admit.. I kept waiting for you to drop back to straight time for the chorus.....
The pure look of joy on his face as he's jamming out...
So good!!! Love these Blink covers!!! Keep em coming
Absolutely crushed it, as always.
Alex you are so beyond talented. Bringing all the nostalgia but with a beautiful twist that works so well. Thank you and happy new year 🙏🏻
Don’t ever sleep on this dude. He gonna put out bangers. Goddamn man. I just say goddamn.
Thanks for doing this, it sounds so good. I wish Blink would play the song this way.
One of the best so far, so sick.
BANGER every single time. And I didn't know it was possible, but you made it more pop punk than Blink :D
You look like you’re having so much fun! Love the energy ❤️
Really appreciated you adding the "weedle-ee weedle-ee" mid-west emo riffs in there.
