What I love is that, despite not liking country, you do these so well that I enjoy them AS country. These could be cheap parodies or joke covers, but you imbue them with so much care that they are actually music and not just a one-note goof on a genre. Really great stuff.
Nah, I’d have to agree with the OP, I’m not a fan of the country genre either but he does these extraordinarily well. I won’t deny country has its appeals, but it is one genre I typically steer well clear of. But I do enjoy these covers. Doesn’t mean I’m going to go out and listen to a country album now 🤷🏻♂️
@@jimmyjohnsofficial1654 What would you recommend for someone getting started, who doesn't want to deal with the likes of Red Solo Cup and Honky Tonk Badonkadonk?
Blink was my band of choice, still is. Country is something I’ve enjoyed more and more over the years so your fusion of it all has been so appreciated! Keep doin what you’re doin man!
When you come for kicks and end up being emotionally moved by an amazing performance... Sheesh, it's like hearing the song for the first time all over again. Kudos!
I can't believe people aren't commenting on how you consistently improve the actual cord progressions and melodies of the songs, they are slight changes but make it sounds so much better (for example the chorus and the 'lead' melody in this song). Anyways well done once again and congrats on the new guitar!
I don't know what impresses me more, the fact that I'm listening to country or the fact that you created this in a hallway. Speaking of hallways... when you originally said you were going for a minimalist approach I didn't think you'd be bringing an entire drum kit into the hallway!
Best thing about these covers is I showed some of them to my mom and its cool to see her jam the same songs I've been jamming for years just in her preferred genre
This was the first Blink 182 song I ever loved, and it's still one of my very favorites! You did an incredible job of it, as usual. I'm going to go feel nostalgic in the corner now.
What's it mean when an artists takes a song you grew up with and takes the nostalgia to a ten, then add a new musical style to it, to help you understand the lyrics better? Which makes me feel like an old teenager.
@IX eleven lol. I think he is very talented and I never disputed that per se. However, coming from a music background this style of country is easy, so someone who is very talented can pop out country music content like it's nothing.
I'm not even from the US but I do listen to country music when I want to relax from a busy day or just playing Minecraft and I can genuinely appreciate this version! Keep it cool bro! - your fan from the Philippines!
It’s unbelievable how talented you are even with a smaller setup. The fact you can switch styles is so impressive. I love the new guitar so beautiful! Very nicely done man!
This is by far the greatest remake of a blink-182 song ever between this guys talent with instruments and his vocal skills I'd honestly don't think anyone else really matches him other than Travis Barker himself.
Perfectly combines both of my trash music styles into a beautiful shame symphony. Keep sending this videos to my friends but they just don't understand how much I needed them
SO good man for being such a minimalistic set up and I have loved that Fender Acoustasonic ever since they released it. just an amazing instrument for something like this. well done.
You’re killing it man. Love these blink-182 covers, regardless whether they are country or pop punk. I know opinions, everybody’s got them, but I would really love to see an entire blink-182 “ in the style of” cover album. You can pick some of your favorite vans, or get super interesting and try to do some weird stylings.
Bro ! Can you please release an album called "if blink 182 wrote" id buy 6 of em you rock man please keep going and keep the blink 182 covers up they are my childhood and honestly all your jams just bring a smile to my face
Haha this dudes channel is so jokes to me. I'm always expecting some wack cover and it always impresses me with how catchy and playable Alex's music actually is lol. Also, that "lead? guitar?" lil riff overtop of the top (high pitch ukelele sound?) is maaad catchy. You go kiddo! XD
we need a whole take off your boots and jacket album
hahaha
take off them chaps and jacket
Take them boots off and jacket
Take off your Boots and Carhartt
Yes!
Hear that subtle mandolin...thats text book panderin....
“Y’all motherfuckers ready for a key change?”
"Say the word 'truck', they jizz in their overalls"
I love this
It's a fucking scare crow again!!!!

Turns out you like country

@@andrewalverson7088 you're doing your self a disservice. There's tons of great country through the filth
@@jimmyjohnsofficial1654 What would you recommend for someone getting started, who doesn't want to deal with the likes of Red Solo Cup and Honky Tonk Badonkadonk?
You are single handedly changing my opinion of country music with these covers.
It helps that I can relate to the lyrics more
Blink was my band of choice, still is. Country is something I’ve enjoyed more and more over the years so your fusion of it all has been so appreciated! Keep doin what you’re doin man!
Dude you have serious talent, so good.

Nerd
NO NO
By the time the song was over I'd traded in my car for a brand new pickup truck how the hell did that happen?
LMFAO
I ain't even american and now there's a Dodge Ram parked outside wtf
@@nero91 Now you've got the Ford and Chevy crowds riled up my man :O
@@nero91 A Dodge? You done fucked up, son.
Get yourself a Toyota and then get ready to die before it does.
Careful, you'll be marrying your sister next.

This just shows that it's the talent and skill that makes your channel great, not just the equipment. Keep up the great work man!
This was perfect 👌
What a weird crossover of channels I watch lmao
This one is okay it's hard to pass as country cuase the lyrics but it's still solid
Didn't expect to see CVV here!
Nice seeing you here haha
"How It's Gonna Be" - Third Eye Blind
This.
Yah the intro 😁
Yeah, there's a strong lick from there
This guy! I never knew I wanted to get my country music and punk rock in the same place until now.
You do your thing Alex!
Best thing about these covers is I showed some of them to my mom and its cool to see her jam the same songs I've been jamming for years just in her preferred genre
Seriously - your music and production is just SOOO good Alex. Big fan
Dude the energy through the music you make. I just love every song (including your originals of course)
As a Blink 182 fan, this was AWESOME! Well done!
my ears greatly enjoyed this :)
This was the first Blink 182 song I ever loved, and it's still one of my very favorites! You did an incredible job of it, as usual. I'm going to go feel nostalgic in the corner now.
I honestly FRIGGIN love what youre doing dude!! Could not love it more. This is perfection 🤣
I love this so much. I grew up on 90s country and Blink was sort of my intro to pop punk. This is amazing.
this guy just keeps on getting better and better at it. Never knew I liked country music. Blink 182 is my all time fav band
This was like watching my teenage years through Polaroid pictures. Lovely.
What's it mean when an artists takes a song you grew up with and takes the nostalgia to a ten, then add a new musical style to it, to help you understand the lyrics better? Which makes me feel like an old teenager.
Damn, this guy is so good at converting these songs to country. Bravo sir, keep it up.
I want a whole country album on Spotify or iTunes.
he has uploaded some of the songs on Spotify.
Not even a big country fan but this might be one of your best. So so good, please get this on Spotify yesterday, cheers
I feel like this song should have been a country song. Thank you for what you do. I love Blink182 and these are just perfect!
Good god man! This is sooooo good! This would honestly have been a huge Country hit, or hell maybe it still could be 🤷🏻♂️
The way you can do this with such a minimalist setup amazes me
And so quickly haha
That's a $2000 guitar lol
@IX eleven or equally because country is easy.

@@Badenhawk yet people aren’t doing it by the thousands.
Never knew I needed a song so much in my life until I heard this. Awesome job
That little guitar lick reminds me of "How's It Gona Be" by Third Eye Blind. Really enjoyed this up and down!
I'm not even from the US but I do listen to country music when I want to relax from a busy day or just playing Minecraft and I can genuinely appreciate this version! Keep it cool bro! - your fan from the Philippines!
Your ability to cross from pop-punk to country and back is fascinating :D
You make the best blink 182 covers, even if it’s in a completely different style. I absolutely adore them, thank you for sharing your talent
I love how it slowly turns into John Mayer
This was absolutely everything I hoped it was going to be. Thank you for doing a great song the justice it deserved.
How the hell are these always better than I thought possible???
How do you not a billion subs...perfection sir.
You’re making me dig country music 😂😂. You’re very talented dude. Love your videos.
It’s unbelievable how talented you are even with a smaller setup. The fact you can switch styles is so impressive. I love the new guitar so beautiful! Very nicely done man!

SO good man for being such a minimalistic set up and I have loved that Fender Acoustasonic ever since they released it. just an amazing instrument for something like this. well done.
Unbelievable how talented you are. So many of these don't even feel like covers anymore.
This needs to be on Spotify! I want to add it to my playlist, Love it!
You’re killing it man. Love these blink-182 covers, regardless whether they are country or pop punk.
I know opinions, everybody’s got them, but I would really love to see an entire blink-182 “ in the style of” cover album. You can pick some of your favorite vans, or get super interesting and try to do some weird stylings.
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
edit: holy shit this is genuinely fire
This is a masterpiece dear sir!
My love for Blink may have brought me, however I stayed and subscribed because of you good sir! Hats off! this cover is bloody brilliant!
Dude. Goosebumps.
You make Blink goes Country sound amazing
Modern country fans may be more interested in "Kid Rock Show."
"Fell in love with a girl at a Kid Rock show."
Good shit, sir!
Getting a real "How's It Going To Be" vibe from the instrumentals. Top drawer!
This is sorcery. I never liked country music in my life but I freaking love this
All pop punk songs are secretly country songs
@@slash196 false. All current country songs are not so secretly pop songs.
Because you like the original so it works ;)
I'll be honest, I didn't think this would work as a country song. I'm glad I'm wrong. Great job, dude.
you love Blink 182 as much as we do...thank you for creating all these great videos
Thought this was going to be a massive dumpster fire filled with old chitlins and gizzards. This is incredible. Thanks my Guy
That guitar looks gorgeous! Great as always love these
i have this guitar too. so much fun to play. my youthful essence is alive in this video. more please!
This is the third cover of yours I’ve listened to. Got a new sub, brother. Just awesome!
This is literally unbelievable.
This is so good. One of those arrangements that makes me feel nostalgic, but I'm not sure for what...
Your talent is unbelievable !! I love these covers !!
Love country, love Blink 182, and you are awesome! So talented.
Crispy like acape cod kettle cooked potato chip. I love your country covers and this just was *chef kiss* perfecto
Please never stop doing this!
this guy never fails to delivery .....love your

Would love to hear a country version of ‘Feeling This’
Should have been “with the girl at the rodeo”.
Yeah because country singers never go to rock shows
@@ehvaandal As soon as a popular country musician does anything original I'll believe they have individual lives.
girl at the stock show
@@Hahahahaaahaahaa They've got fame and money. Think they give a shit about your opinion?
James, Alex has already stated he does covers, not parodies.
This makes me wanna do donuts on my four wheeler
Seriously man, your covers are a piece of art! Bless.
Sick upgrades to your house, dude! I LOVE the stone walls instead of drywall. Looks way better
Omg. This is my favorite one so far. Keep up the great work.
Brilliant stuff, love all your takes on blink-182 songs

Always enjoy your take on different genres. Reminds me of granger smiths voice in this one.
This is spectacular, the new guitar sounds amazing!
this guy is the only one that makes me wanna listen to anything country... lamao
Duuuuuude that was amazing! Keep up the great work!!
My teens was all Blink, now that i’m pushing 30, I’m slowly getting into country. All I can say is that this is perfect
