If Livin' On A Prayer Was a Pop Punk Anthem

- This week, we're doing a bit of a reharmonization, plus a genre swap and key change. Livin' On A Prayer feels like the 80's version of pop punk to me, so here we are. Join Alex, Alex, and Alex as they jam with Alex on this Bon Jovi banger.

I knew the dude landed the gig when he arrived in the same uniform as the rest of the band.
I rather think it's because they all got the same beard.
@@rf8362 Nah, definitely because of the same hat
😂😂😂
Haha! 😂. Great arrangement on this!
But how was there pizza leftover? Like those dudes weren't hungry?
One of the biggest joys I have is showing people your music when I DJ at weddings. The amount of people who come up to me and ask "who is this??? 😊😊😊"
I feel like I’m an Alex melton ambassador as well.
It's just one of the many things that make you the world's best wedding DJ.
@@sebrontucker4725 or one of the top 2753, at the very least
Copyrights love it
Oh yeah? Take it you're licensing that? 😉
I love how the drummer just shrugs at the key change 🤣🤣
i came to say this LOL
In some international hand signal manual for drummers, that could mean. "Tempo going up dude!" Chaos would have ensued :P
Whenever im told there is a key change on a gig i try and ask too many questions about it until the singer is confused on why im even asking. Drummer humor.
3:10 Yep
Most realistic part of the video.
Brilliant. Now I'm imagining a pop punk version of Def Leppard, for some reason.
Pop Punk photograph would go hard.
Hysteria would be a great one. Or Love Bites.
A yellowcard version of I Am Your Child would go so hard
@@jlhitz35 like Nickelback? he did that already
@@tyawesome111 No, like the Def Leppard song Photograph: ua-cam.com/video/D4dHr8evt6k/v-deo.html
It feels like 2005 all over again. Great job!
Hi Friendo! I see you have excellent taste as well haha
@@ReneRunsRPGs yessss!!!!! Alex Melton is my favorite! Next time he goes on tour I know who to go with lol.
1999 for me
pop punk never went away after 2005
@@noseblind2088 I know that, silly. I still listen to the same music as I did then and more. But this one especially feels like 2005 to me.
As usual, this is even more epic than I imagined!
Love your username.
God, the vibes on this are perfect. The first chorus arrangement? Goosebumps.
The Starting Line influence on this cover is so heavy, love it!
Was about to say the same thing!
There’s a bit of Stellar Kart’s version of this song in here. I feel like it had to have influenced it, though the anthem style is different.
From a guy that was in a band, a long time ago, with friends, that played emo, screamo, and punk covers, popular or not, and a couple of originals, in our back yards, with our amps turned all the way up, with a few female admirers.. You guys rock!
Yeah man I love these guys, I think the drummer is my favorite though!
I'm not sure if you take requests, but I was wondering if you would do "Hey There Delilah" if Blink 182 wrote it. Keep up the great work!
This man's heard AI Ye
@@RizKaira we need an AI Ye album
That's a damn good idea
Ai yeh deyayoeo
YES
You know the song, you know pop punk, and still you turned it into something completely unique that surprises the listener. Incredible!
Dude as a kid who became a Bon Jovi stan at 13 in 2000 when I was otherwise listening to pop punk nonstop, this made me cry. Thanks, didn't know I needed this in my life!
Alex, Alex, Alex, and Alex just keep topping themselves with every reimagining!
I loved the "key change" part. The drums are like "whatever..." Great arrangement! Keep up the excellent work! 👍👍
Everything alex touches turns to pure gold!
best moments:
1. the way you hold back in the first chorus to let it hit even harder the second time
2. drummer “WTF” face at the key change
3. halftime outro!!
I feel like this changes the tone of the song in a subtle and beautiful way. Excellent job!
Its the Orange Amps
Alex, my guy, you are seriously my favorite band of this year. You're so goddamn good at breathing new life into all of these songs. Incredible, dude. Keep it up.
What nails this is the way he bounces with the guitar while singing into the mic. I didn't even realize how crucial that was to this until I saw him doing it. Well done
As if this song didn't get stuck in my head hard enough already. Very nice!
Great rendition! I heard "Friday I'm in Love" by The Cure the other day on the radio and wondered if you could do a version of that. Not sure which would sound better...a country version or a pop punk version.
I'm casting my vote for pop punk
I didn’t know that was written by them, it just doesn’t seem like something they wrote
YES
PLEASE GET THIS ON SPOTIFY!!!!!!
this one is a hit 🔥
Awesome. Again. Why am I always surprised?
We need more “Worship Band” covers 😏 the extended mixes and drawn out bridges really are something else 🔥
Definitely, I would love to see an album of these
boys like girls - hero/heroine was the best at worshified version
@@adamchater7 now that’s just flirting!
@@cmja09 100%!!! Absolutely incredible rendition!
This is fast becoming one of my favorite channels on UA-cam! Thanks!
I love all these pop punk covers, but there was something about this one that was super legit and lit. Love the guitar solo, the modern day sound, just a solid arrangement. Keep them coming Alex!
When does this hit spotify?!?!?! I must listen more
This is fantastic. There’s just something overwhelmingly optimistic about the drums that gets me in this cover, not sure how to explain it, but it all just meshes perfectly.
This is one of those songs that when covered the cover always pails in comparison to the original not offering anything original nor distinct. But you have managed to make a fresh, distinct and awesome version of the song- well done.
This is probably my favorite punk remix you have done yet!! Keep up the good work man really appreciate the dedication.
You’re a national treasure dude.
*international
This needs to go viral!! You my friend, you need to be heard to millions!!! I love your take on things, it can be different and still be ok. I love bon Jovi, but you kill it man!! Your open mind needs to be shared with all!!
Didn’t know how much I needed this.
Keeping killing it my dude!
Funny because I was just talking about the new fall out boy album and how it's a lot of hair metal anthems, done in fall out boy style. This encapsulates that theory perfectly. Thank you.
I swear Alex _created and owns_ this as a new form/category of pop music.... "pop/punk covers of songs you know". Production is on point. Videography is on point. I'd love to hear/see covers of songs like:
Petty - "American Girl"...
Joe Jackson - "Is She Really Going Out With Him?"
Steve Miller - "Gangster of Love"
Alex has 1st mover status... the worlds song catalog is his oyster... really looking forward to what he puts out...
So did he make the band?
Beast cover! More from Bon Jovi please!
Dont know why I like covers, or pop punk so much but I do.
It's good to see that pop punk still resonates in people's hearts! It's great your version man it kills!!
Taking Back Sunday vibes 👌🏼🤘🏼
So awesome! I love your videos, you're so freaking talent dude!! I was singing along so loudly! This brought me so much joy!
one of your best covers, this is amazing! 🔥🔥🔥
Is it possible for you to not top yourself??? Every time I think you can't put out something more amazing, you always do! I need a Melton CD!
I almost shed a tear of how good this is. Hell yeah! As a drummer myself I especially loved these intricate little fills and breaks.
Dude, this was absolutely perfect.
Killing it lately with the fast releases and the quality!
OK how is every single one of these a banger
Alex - this is badass man, great job! With your blessing we might have to use this in our cover band. Kudos my dude!
This channel brings me joy
Getting major late The Starting Line vibes on this one. Fantastic!
Pop Punk Band's should take this cover to make on stage ! Amazing version !!
Keep Goin'! More of this... Your cover is such a therapy.
Listening from Philippines🤘
Ooooh I really like what you did with the chord progression!!
Idk how anyone is making pop punk music without you. You’re the only one who gets what is needed in all areas. Truly our emo wish come true ♥️
Damn, I love the original but why are you forcing me to love this more? DAMN YOU AND YOUR EPIC COVERS KEEP THEM COMING
thank you for all you do, Alex Melton. a generation of kids who grew up on punk pop love your stuff.
You take me back to high school with every remake like this but it’s all new and I love it
There's people who are really talented... And then there's you, you're literally insane. You can put out a freaking album of these and it would blow up. Unreal. Keep it up man you're awesome
This has crazy The Starting Line vibes...and I'm totally here for it.
Hey you're right! I love the starting line. Cutest bass player ever.
Clicked expecting a laugh.
It is now added to a playlist of music I listen to daily.
Alex opening that pizza box looks the same as me clicking on his videos.
Love the lick break. Love it whole
You better have gotten some Dominos money out of this, my Melton
damn. this incredible.
Great anthem arraingment at the end
This works so well! Hope you do more "If...Was a Pop Punk Anthem". Keep it the fantastic work!
Amazing! Thank you for the big smile
I love how the drummer shrugs and shakes his head before the key change.
Half time last chorus/outro was epic
Petition for the next Punk Goes Pop album to be all Alex Melton.
This is FANTASTIC.
I genuinely got goosebumps. Thanks for this.
I liked the guy with the black Hoodie and the red beard the most. Great work Alex, love it. Enjoy your well deserved Pizza.
So much fun!
I feel like a rocket to the moon is singing this cover.
This is a great take on a song that I've never thought about changing the style of, great job.
All that’s missing is the end credits for a late 90s early 2000s movie. Starring either Reese Witherspoon or Kate Hudson.
i love your style of production, so clean! will u ever make a tutorial on how you view production or something related ?
The best part is always the story of the videos
This reminds me of The Starting Line’s Anyways. Awesome!
Dude, your stuff always blows my mind.
I look forward to these songs every week or so man. I fucking jam out to them. Appreciate what you do.
This is the second video I've watched of yours - subscribed. incredible artist, great talent - keep up the great work my friend!
Absolutely crushed it, as always. Bravo!
Hahahaha, the split screen before key change where everyone knows except the drummer. I felt this 😂😂😂
I'm from Indonesia and i loved all your covers bro.. Hip Hip Hura Pop Punk 👍
I love this! I can’t imagine this arrangement before I heard.
Has a big The Starting Line feel to it
I wish I could listen to all these on Spotify.
At 1:21 in the song, I subscribed to Alex. This song touched my soul! Such an incredible and iconic masterpiece of pure talent! Seeing new and upcoming artists share their passion, is the reason I got into the music industry.
You’re gonna go far Alex!!
Outstanding performance! 👏🏼
dude. you never miss. this is incredible.
I can't believe you did the key change. That was such a good move! Another banger!
Like hearing to Foo Fighters. Excellent!
Alex on acoustic drums again! Though this sounds recorded with the usual Roland TD50/Midi controller setup.
Great stuff though! fun take on the song
Great arrangement. Bravo.
The half time part was epic.
We’re they upset when they found out you didn’t write this 🤪
Good Charlotte version.
Duddddddeeeeeee!!!!!!!!! That was so incredibly sick
this totally fun, thanks
