The Promise Ring - Happiness is All the Rage. But make it Hhhhhhhheeeeeeeaaaavvvvyyyyyy. Like break your voice heavy. Like the perceived slow motion of a huge asteroid breaching earth's atmosphere. Like the explosion of the white house in Independence Day. Hahaha.
dude you elevated this from "yeah i guess i'm ok releasing this" to "YA MAYBE MY FAVOURITE THING I'VE EVER MADE" thank you s o sososososososo much for being perfect xoxo EVERYONE GO SUBSCRIBE TO @FuzzPixels THANK YOU
@toddbarriage Oh god or Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zereos 'Home' Imma stop before I start talking about The Middle East 'The Blood'. That doesn't count.
That outro is god-tier. The double-bass drums, the short breakdown, the nine layered vocal tracks INCLUDING A CALLBACK TO MAKEGRAMSURE. Bruh, I'm in love.
Good news is now that this is faster, I can listen to it more times a day than before. Now I can enjoy a good 597 complete listening (previously 466 times), what a deal !
Dude you always kill it! Love that you added the “are we alone, do you feel it” harmonies in the end. I remember when this album first dropped I had a buddy who swore the lyrics were, “I’ll be yellow. You’ll be red.” Even though I told him that those weren’t the damn lyrics, I still can’t not hear his version of the lyrics to this very day.
Honestly this is really dope. I’m not a huge fan of the drums in verse but everywhere else stuff fits very well. And obviously the end is absolutely chaos and super fun.
Thanks so much!! Listening back to it now that it’s done, I agree that the verse beat is kinda whatever hahaha. While I was making it, the entire concept was about forcing that beat in so I never even thought to tweak it. Ah well 🥲
@@toddbarriagetotally. I think the video premise is a great idea. I've been following you for a while now and always enjoy hearing your spins on things. Keep it up. You're a really good producer.
Every time I watch a Todd video I get three quarters of the way through and remember the subtitles so have to start over again. Another banger my dude.
Your production quality and the effort you put into it is just untouchable on RU-vid right now, so good!! You and FuzzPixels absolutely nailed this. I love it!
Wow, thank you so much! I'm currently putting way, WAY too much effort into this next video haha. Just as I was asking myself "do I even need to do this much work, will anyone notice?" you left this comment. Thank you, not just for watching my stuff, but for helping me realize why I do the things I do. Really appreciate you!
I had to pause the video because I thought Todd deserved a break for a second. Jesus you are such an amazing drummer and this cover was incredible. Thank you for making awesome music Todd
Genuinely, thank you for pausing it to give me a break lmao this one was a LOT. While I’m writing the parts I’ll be like “yeah that’s technically playable” and then I go to do the video and realize… it’s technically playable by a GOOD drummer and now I have to get good really fast with a camera on me haha. Stoked you enjoyed this :)
@@toddbarriage Definitely agree. Just subscribed to Fuzz's channel as well. Immediately see a DK Rap cover. I'm like "Okay, I'm sold now" lol. Hope you have a great day!
Man, I’m glad you got to go back in time with this cover 💙 My best friend back then would loop this album all the time, along with Bowling For Soup’s ‘A Hangover You Don’t Deserve’ - a lot of formative points in our lives were directly soundtracked by these older records
Todd you had no right, no right dammit. You had no right to go this hard but you did and I fucking love you for it. This immediately took me back 2003 where I was young and in love and the girl I thought I'd spend the rest of my life with would listen to this album on repeat with me. Thank you thank you thank you 💙
It's so good that I can't decide which version I prefer. 😁 In any case, your version brings a lot of dynamics and speed, I love it!! And the double kick at 2:01 I wasn't ready! 😅 Good Job !! 🔥🔥🔥💪💛
with all the blink-isms you put in your other videos, i thought i would never see an actual blink cover from you. you never seem to let me down, todd! 🤗
i got here from your chop suey cover that sounded like if it were breaking benjamin singing it, and it's totally random but you totally remind me of kurtis conner, so in a way i kinda imagine him starting a cover band idk it's so funny in my head okay 😭 but you're so very good at this, this particular cover omg chef's kiss, the outro part was heavenly and yeah, you earned a new subscriber here 😁
when i was mixing this, i wasn’t sure how loud to make the cowbell so i just kept inching it up until Bruce stopped screaming in my face to turn it up!
I HAD NO IDEA, HAPPY BIRTHDAY 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Well Toddward, this tune has been on fucking repeat for weeks now. AWESOME job. Better than the original, as usual. Keep on trucking on them trucking trucks. 🤙
Everything I could have ever waneted in one beautiful mashup. Perfect vocals, incredible musical talent, such raw, genuine emotion. My soul fed on this and came back for thirds. Thank you.
This cover is what great covers are made of... Kept the heart of the original while adding a new take on the song. And the outro. What an awesome video. Nailed it. Keep up the great work bro.
I was listening to this at work without watching it and I heard the vocals and I had to come double check the video because I was pretty sure it was Fuzz Pixels on vocals and I was right and I love when you guys collab so much.
THIS IS AWESOME! The kick drum barrage was the best part... I want to make covers like this one day. And maybe my own music.. People like you inspire me to chase that dream! Also.. Not just the mix but the video production is great too! Nice work!
OHHHHH SHIT WOW! BUllet point cause i'm in meeting: -One of my fav Blink song, it's such a perfect high school summer vibe - I was addicted to this song -The drums bro 😂 you killed it! It's so fast it's on the edge of being too much but that edging is so well done it works -Drums pt 2 - 2:02 I know exactly what you did there hahaha ''how far can we go with this'' 🤣 -Overall, even if you may have done this as a semi joke, I gotta say you and @fuzzpixels have nailed the vocals - Like imo you sound better than Mark and Tom nowadays (hot take I know) What I wanna see next? Someone mentioned No One Like You from Scorpions - Honestly a Scorpions ballad could be really funny :P
that 2:02 bullet point is EXACTLY what happened; Mio on Twitch suggested a blast beat and I kept going with polyrhythms until it stopped making sense hahaha I’m so happy you liked this!! once I heard Jason’s vocal takes I knew I had to bring my A game for the Tom parts
Mom! Mom, that's me! No, I'm not IN the video, but that music at the end! When Todd's talking! That's me! Yeah! I'm playing my kazoo! I told you I'd make it big some day! Yeah, I'll take out the trash in a minute, but LET ME HAVE THIS!
@@toddbarriage Wow! It's funny that that didn't even register with me. I was expecting that it was going to be even a little bit *too* fast for me, since "faster" was in all caps in the title--like almost to the point of mild sensory overload was how I was picturing it--but it was very much within a pleasurable range of speed.
