My thoughts exactly. This sounds like a 100% country smash hit and better than so many actual current country tracks. He absolutely crushes everything he does.
Damn dude, I need an old Chevy Silverado to drive and play this song while driving down a long dirt road while looking solemn cause i’m thinking of how simple my youth was and how quickly I grew up.
Being from a small town to living in a big city now, you just made me miss home. Except the Chevy was always a dodge for me lol. Can’t wait to visit home again
I'm a freshman going through my first semester of college, and this song's lyrics hit me like a truck. The older adults in this comment section will probably laugh, but this is really my first taste of the real world, and it hasn't been going as well as I'd like it to at all. I have a lot of insecurities about whether I'll be able to make enough friends, join any meaningful clubs/extracurriculars, and generally do enough to secure a job at the end, and this song like a taunting challenge. I need to prove that it *can* be fun living in the real world, but I have to create the circumstances necessary for it to be. I just don't know how at the moment.
Stay strong. You might feel like you're only barely making it now, but you'll likely look back and realize you were just fine all things considered. Also, wanna know a secret? You say that you just don't know how yet, but you may never know how while in the present. I'm in my third decade. I've done a lot in my life. While I'm not super successful, I'm by no means poor. Even now, I'm still not sure if I'm doing it right. Just keep doing you.
Surprised to see this comment, and now I know I am not alone. Yo bro, I am not freshman anymore, already on my last semester. So many things seems new to me, even these 3.5 years has passed. I felt that too, and even now. I believe we can figured out how to strive and live our best for this "real world".
Dude. Speaking of bass vibes to this song. Coincidentally one of my favorite covers on UA-cam. I’ve watched it so many times over the years: ua-cam.com/video/7NFstiLDTrQ/v-deo.html
bro im gonna be completely 100 the fact that you don't have 20 million subs is baffling to me. easily one of the most talented content creators on the internet.
So epic! my favorite song of paramore covered! Would be epic if you would make a Kacey musgraves song into a rock song haha, just to make some country song rocky.
I hit like before the song even starts coz I know Alex going to make it perfect. Everytime. He makes it sound like it was always meant to be country... Dude's a gem
Ooh, notification! All right, let's click on the video. Gonna just go ahead and Like it because Alex's track record is currently at 100% for me.... 6 minutes later: ok, Imma just go ahead and press play again.
I remember when this album came out, I listened to this song and was like, "This is the best song on the album." They released it as a single like 8 months later, and as we now know, it blew up. This is a great version of it, it'll be on my list now
loved your stuff for a while but man this has been in my head for 3 solid weeks. I have a simliar vocal range so its just so fun to sing. love all the songs my guy.
Dude you are great at all the different styles, but country is something I feel like can really do something with. It literally sounds like something off the radio.
Wtf you are insanely good just now found out about you tonight can't stop watching the genre swaps, doesn't sound like it would work but you sure do make it great job man
You can hear a tiny tiny sliver of Misery Business at the end of that song. Maybe my mind is playing tricks on me but it for sure sounds like the intro lol

What's that small Taylor that you're playing?
The link to your bass is wrong, the link shows a 5 string Jbass, just so you know
Also, in this video it looks you’re using a 414, not an SM7B. Is that right?
May I use your songs for my vlog?
If this was not already Paramore’s song, this would be a number 1 hit on country radio right this very second.
Never say never...
Well, Hayley is from Nashville, and country singers used to constantly cover rock and R&B songs before bro-country took over.
This is WAAAAYYYY 2 good to be a popular country song
Before that it was Paula Abdul's
My thoughts exactly. This sounds like a 100% country smash hit and better than so many actual current country tracks.
He absolutely crushes everything he does.
Sounds like it's time to dust off the f-150 and hit the backroads.
Dont dust the f150 before going on a backroad.
Pffft. Real country bros drive the Dodge Rams. The more coal you pump out the better
Instructions unclear, dusted off the back roads and hit the f150
Damn dude, I need an old Chevy Silverado to drive and play this song while driving down a long dirt road while looking solemn cause i’m thinking of how simple my youth was and how quickly I grew up.
How did you perfectly describe a memory I know for a fact I don’t have!?
Nice👌
Being from a small town to living in a big city now, you just made me miss home. Except the Chevy was always a dodge for me lol. Can’t wait to visit home again
This comment is gold😂
You’ve just described it so much i want it
So my husband is a little bit country, and I’m a little bit rock and roll- these y’all-tentative covers are life.

Enjoy the journey!
Bud everyone’s first taste of it SUCKS. I feel this brother.
Such a vibe happening over on the bass. Love it

Heck yeah Paramore. I'd love to see what you could do with Brick By Boring Brick. Pop punk/blink/country/worship, all of it sounds great
Who tf are they?
@@galvanizedgnome Brick By Boring Brick is a Paramore song
bro im gonna be completely 100 the fact that you don't have 20 million subs is baffling to me. easily one of the most talented content creators on the internet.
I live for your country covers, bro. I would literally buy an infinite number of albums of this.
Fr same. Honestly some of my favorite songs are his covers.
Reminds me of an Old Dominion sound. Nice work
Nailed it again, as always!
I'm gonna have to shamefully request Came Out Swinging by The Wonder Years in one of your next updates.
HE HAS TO.
I unashamedly love pop punk and country music so this beautiful combo made me a little... misty-eyed?! It's just so good!
So glad this is on Spotify now! Yes!
I've definitely heard this covered downtown Nashville before and this is even better!
This is amazing as always. The amount of talent you have is crazy.
So epic! my favorite song of paramore covered! Would be epic if you would make a Kacey musgraves song into a rock song haha, just to make some country song rocky.
Follow Your Arrow would make a banger of a pop punk song
I hit like before the song even starts coz I know Alex going to make it perfect. Everytime. He makes it sound like it was always meant to be country... Dude's a gem
another banger by Alex Melton from Alex and the Meltons
You never fail to slap
this is so so so so fucking good. yet another phenomenal track from Alex. can't wait for the album!
Is this one available on spotify? I couldn't find it.
Ooh, notification! All right, let's click on the video. Gonna just go ahead and Like it because Alex's track record is currently at 100% for me.... 6 minutes later: ok, Imma just go ahead and press play again.
As a Paramore fan, dude this is amazing. Thumbs Up!!!
I remember when this album came out, I listened to this song and was like, "This is the best song on the album." They released it as a single like 8 months later, and as we now know, it blew up.
This is a great version of it, it'll be on my list now
I never listen to country it’s just not my genre but wow!!!! This is absolutely brilliant, this might be the song that opens me up to country
I hate how good these always are because now when I think of this song I'll think of this version 🤣
You are a straight up killer dude, no other way to put it. Immense talent!
Loved the gospel-ish backing vox at 2:30. Sounded so soulful and a nice touch to the song.
omfg bro get all your stuff on spotify!!!! i can't get enough!!!!
So good! The production value and the musicianship is top notch! Well done!
loved your stuff for a while but man this has been in my head for 3 solid weeks. I have a simliar vocal range so its just so fun to sing. love all the songs my guy.
Country with Paramore lyrics is the definition of uncanny valley
My dude you hero. The quality is just outstanding. Country music needs to be worldwide.
Another banger I never thought could possibly exist 😂
I bet Alex loves Ruston Kelly. Country sounds and punk/emo feels blended into one.
This is so soothing. OG pumps me up but this one calms me down, love the contrast
Hell yea! I'm only half way through and it's already a great take!
I had no idea this could sound so good in this genre! Great job.
One of the best you've ever done, my man!
Reminds me of 90s country songs. Amazing talent you have. You’re truly blessed with this gift.
Dude you are great at all the different styles, but country is something I feel like can really do something with. It literally sounds like something off the radio.
Amazing, upload it plz to Spotify or Apple Music. Looking forward for covers for “the anthem”, “still waiting”, “I do anything”
You've become one of my favorite artists, brother.
Wtf you are insanely good just now found out about you tonight can't stop watching the genre swaps, doesn't sound like it would work but you sure do make it great job man
Bro 39 seconds in and I immediately subscribed and opened your Spotify profile on another tab, amazing. Keep it up!
i love all of your covers and videos, but this is startlingly good, truly exceptional
YESSS -- this is cool and it brings me back to the 2010's when I feel life was better and more simple.
This is so awesome - a different sound than a lot of your other songs but I LOVE what you did!
DUDE!!! This cover is what the world need, more country pleaseee!
I've been waiting for this my whole life
I loved that you keep the bass music concept
The talent you possess is insane!!!! Such a great cover
Another solid one! I love the original soo much, it's my favorite Paramore song.
Dude this slaps so hard i legit love all of your covers Amazing as usual!
the most versatile musician of our time
I love your stuff. Soooo good! Keep it up and you should totally do "Pour Some Sugar on Me" -- country style!!!!
I just found your channel. You are truly talented! Please keep it up. Wishing big things for you in the future.
Best one you've done in a while. This one knocks it out of the park
Cannot wait for this to be on Apple Music so I can add this to three different playlists!
This channel is the only time i really personally put on a country song lol. Always a good vibe here. 🤣
You have such cool taste in music, this is awesome
Is this what you were playing with on your ig story the other day and saying, this has a rascal flatts feel??? Lol sounds soooo good!!
This is soooo sick! Alex, you are legend!
Are you going to release this on Spotify and Apple Music?
Damn, this works.
This shit is dope, Alex. Really solid choice of song to turn country!
Wow this is honestly amazing
looking good, mate. Sounding as good as ever.
This is just fire. Also I didn't realize what this song was about till now.
master!!! i love it ,,,really good cover dude
Incredible as always Alex.
You can hear a tiny tiny sliver of Misery Business at the end of that song. Maybe my mind is playing tricks on me but it for sure sounds like the intro lol
I wonder if I could add in a bass track and mix this into a dance set for weddings. As is it would kill for dinner / pre dance.
Dude, GREAT job here!!!!!
Different approach, love it!!👍🏽👍🏽
Alex you make me crazy how you twist those music❤️ I need to make my own now😁
Huge suggestion for y'all: Heart Shaped Box as a country song...you can drawl the heck outta "Hey, wait...I gotta new complaint."
Please add this to Spotify 🙏🏼 🙏🏼
Dude you are so talented, it is a good version :)
Yup. Nailed it. Keep em coming! Great stuff!
This is almost perfectly in the style of Jordan Davis… incredible.
Instantly reminded me of “Take It From Me”! So good!
Absolutely fantastic. Love it!
Time to release this on Spotify.
Awesome rendition, almost easier on the ear, but just barely missing the high notes, still thoroughly enjoyed it
Still waiting for this one on Spotify brother!
Bro, my woman loves this song and got me into it so I'm thoroughly pleased; hearing this.
Thank you.
Imagine listening to this version and just having a late night drive
Dude. You're awesome at what you do. I know you will anyway, but keep at it.
this is the best song ive heard all year man
I would follow Alex Melton into battle.
We love you dude!!! 💚💚💚
You are just so fking good dude
Amazing-as always
Alex never misses!
So good, love it! Thanks for another banger 🙌
If I heard this without knoting what it is I would assume it was the band “1975”
Dude you are my favorite musician
Everything Alex touches turns to gold! #goat 🐐
Dude this is fantastic.
