  • Im so done with shitty mobile

  • AWFUL.

  • i like blink 182 and four year strong, but this is kinda bad. too electronic and lame for me

  • @Conosaurous Definitely not for everyone. This is really early material for our label and for FYS so we were both a little raw. Like anything, we got better with time and practice, or at least I would like to think so.

  • @willusclyde2000 Of course. I just thought it was weird because there was just so much techno and auto-tune in the song, which really isn't like FYS. Are you part of the band or the record company or something?

  • @Conosaurous I'm the owner of the indie label Pacific Ridge Records. Just a side note though, there actually wasn't any auto-tune. The track was actually recorded live. The techno aspect was just a synth keyboard. The fact that it was live is where the rawness comes into play. That's why the vocals are a little gruff. Anyways I appreciate the mature conversation. I love differing opinions when they're offered in a respectable manner. Hope you stumble across some of our recent work and enjoy it.

  • omg what is this shit..this is like the bse of music,like pop punk wasn't lame enough with all it's trendy hot topic poser cuntpies haha kill yourselfs

  • ehhhh good try? 

  • Can't wait to see them support Blink next year!

  • I am a huge blink 182 fan, and I must say, this is an awesome cover. They really made it their own. I love it!

  • yeah just like the last time i listened, still fucking rad

  • @notaretardlikeyou could you please make proper sentences. i cant read your hate comment :(

  • @martenLij Glad you said it and I didn't have to. If you youtube message me your email I'll hook you up with some free tunes. I like to reward positive social networking and being anti-troll. Which you've clearly shown with your dose of logic.

  • @willusclyde2000 well thanks but i dont need free tunes ;)

  • @martenLij Awesome brother. Well keep up the good work. It's anti-trolls like you who keep forums from being unreadable.

  • @willusclyde2000 cool ;) i dont really like fanboys & trolls but its always fun to comment on their comments :p but dont be to kind to me, i just commented on youtube, its nothing fancy. ;)

  • i dont like the auto-tune, but all the instruments sound good

  • I'd like to point out the retard that thinks I think four tear strong are goin to read I put that for u pussy ass four year strong queer ass fans cause they can't right shit they are just like fuckin lil Wayne he sucks dick they can't come up with any new lyrics listen to em then say somethin to me bout how I'm retarded bitch like I though they gona c it not I ment for it to say like that so peoria would waist their time on music like this oops disgrace ment shit like this

  • @notaretardlikeyou you are beyond illiterate, if your going to insult the "retard" at least make a coherent sentence that makes sense

  • this fuckin sucks

  • WtF u guys r the worst cover I've ever heard to dingy an annoying and quit writing the same lyrics n all ur new CDs dicks !

  • @notaretardlikeyou I'd like to point out the [sarcasm] massive [/sarcasm] that Four Year Strong are going to read your comment.

  • the best part 0:47 and 1:26

  • This is too computerized D:

  • i think this is awesome way different and heavy i love fys, but im a sucker for the original cuz its my favorite blink song

  • @ZTBennett12 I couldn't of described it better myself. It's almost practically two different songs, and should be enjoyed as such.

  • @ZTBennett12 Amen on all account brother! As the other dude said, couldn't have put it better myself.

  • OMG YES. I can't believe they did this cover! Sweet :D

  • They sound absolutely nothing like Nickleback. Just Drive reminds me a little bit of Incubus, while Stuck in the Middle is still good old Four Year Strong sound, only missing the keyboard. But to be hones, they were already mostly gone on Enemy of the World.

  • damn the drummer has some deep floor tom and huge snare. i can hear it.

  • @RunescapeHelpization An original comment that didn't end with vile hate. Thank you! We need more people on the interwebs like you!

  • I love blink and four year but this is shit.

  • I love this version, every time I listen to the original I always expect them to sing it like this by accident.

  • @ooshinman23 I love you for lovin' this version. I can relate to what you're saying too, I always expect the synths to fade in when I hear the original. Thanks for keeping the web positive!

  • They ruined the fucking intro, god damnit.

  • this is awesome :) i'm a massive time blink-182 fan, and this cover is a great 'TRIBUTE' to blink-182 (hint to all the haters) , they aren't trying to be blink, they are mearly just giving their own take on a song by band that they clearly love and wanted to pay tribute to! why else would they do the cover!?

  • I love blink 182 and Four Year Strong. THIS IS AWESOME

  • Four Year Strong is good at covering songs from my childhood.

  • if you don't like the fact that they covered blink 182 then maybe you shouldnt listen to covers of blink..... isnt the point of a cover like this to appreciate the writing of another band while changing the song to your style, which i feel like is accomplished. Not that any of this really matters anymore considering four year strong sounds closer to nickelback then blink 182 now

  • @dirtyitalianxx Thank you! I never understood why people rag on every Blink cover in existence because nobody can supposedly do them justice. It's called don't listen to Blink covers then. It's not like I'm tricking people into listening to this cover with the title of the video. Common sense goes a long way. Would you like a free digital compilation for your sound reasoning and logic? If you do just youtube message me your email and I'll hook you up.

  • @dirtyitalianxx

    four year strong does not sound closer to nickelback than blink 182...

  • @skikkja

    They do now bud.

  • @ReeSiZzLeS09

    no they don't bud,I don't care what you say they are still musically,stylistically and lyrically closer to Blink 182 than nickelback. If you think otherwise you should probably listen to FYS new CD and more nickelback.

  • @skikkja

    I'll just listen to neither. Problem solved!

  • ruined a fucking grand song.

  • Nononononooooooooooooooooo.

    It's an awesome song, but.....just........Blink...no­....

  • good but it just doesn't compare to blink

  • you guys suck hard

  • wow i love Blink and 4YS but this is a HORRIBLE cover.

  • Despite the arguing atleast we can say its better than what's on the radio these days.

  • @MegaShadowKing AMEN

  • @MegaShadowKing four year strong is on the radio what the hell are you talking about i just seen there video on tv for 'tonight we feel alive'

  • @MegaShadowKing four year strong is on the radio and i just seen there video for "tonigh we feel alive" on t.v what the hell are you talking about

  • @MichealZero1 all i ever hear on the radio is the new mtv music like katy perry, lady gaga or drake. ill hear the occasional early 2000s music like all american rejects, but never anything like four year strong

  • @MegaShadowKing yea well i guess your missin out i heard them first on this local channel called the cool t.v on channel 23 - 2 on my converter box maybe you should check your local channels

  • this music is for pansies with fohawks

  • @unicursalhex like you?

  • I love Blink-182 but I love Four Year Strong, there one of my favorite bands i think they do a great job covering it because they do it in there own style and it sounds unique. Its also a hard song to cover because Blink-182 did such a fantastic job on Dumpweed,but I give props to Four Year Strong for doing it. I Love FYS :)

  • @TheTehpoop You made several valid points both with your compliments and criticism. Thanks for being a terrific example of what comments are meant to be. If you youtube message me your email address I'll hook you up with some free tunes for taking the time to write something that's well thought out.

  • why the shout on i can change its wrong

  • I love blink and I love four year strong, but this is just appauling

  • I like FYS but not really feeling this cover at all. Like the tribute to Blink though!

  • @nlo13

    totally agree with you on that

  • almost as good as blink's version

  • @magernerd That's all a person can hope for from a cover song. To be almost as good as the original.

  • @willusclyde2000 drummer can't top travis of course tho :)

  • @magernerd No argument there. Not many people can!

  • @willusclyde2000 yes they can, travis isnt good

  • @magernerd Jake's far better than Travis.

  • Agree'd that blink's version is better. but its good to see other bands still keeping intrest in their older songs, and making them their own style. serious shizzle right here, four year strong are legends just waiting to become top of their genre...

  • nothing is like the original "dumpweed"... epic intro to an epic album(Enema of the State)

  • lose the computer effect shit

  • sad face

  • blink 182 is my favorite band of all time but i love FYS too but the original is way better!!

  • they have so many amazing covers. while this one isn't quite the best i've heard from FYS, it doesn't change the fact that they are flexible and change around their sound which is incredibly admirable.

  • they are a good band but they just killed the song. i'm going to go listen to the real version now and hopefully forget about this

  • @girlsrinferiot2world I agree FYS's version of Dumpweed isn't as good as the original. But that's why the song was covered in the first place, because Blink 182 made their version so epic that it became respected enough to warrant a cover. It's not meant to replace the original, it's just meant to be a fun and unique twist on a wildly popular song.

  • @girlsrinferiot2world woooooooooord this is so disappointing for me

  • @girlsrinferiot2world u shuld be glad that dumpweed is being covered by a popular band, if anything it showing that they respect blink-182

  • @capostatus937 not by killing it...

  • @girlsrinferiot2world Of course it´s not that good. FYS recorded this in just one day. FYS are better musicians than Blink 182 though. They are awesome live, unlike Blink 182 which can´t play live at all.

  • @anotherfakeheroes no they are not. blink 182 are great and this is not just "not that good" this is horrible. i cant even listen to it. its almost as bad as friday, thats how bad it is. sure they recorded it in one day (how did you get that figure) and look what happened.

  • @anotherfakeheroes I think that blink puts on a better live show tho becuz they're funny as hell and they play rad songs in between

  • @anotherfakeheroes blink can play live the difference is blink play faster and were once actually punk and fys are just a pop band that use keyboards and technology were blink just use guitars and drums how can you compare blink doesnt use as mucch special effects either

  • Legit Shit- fuck the haters

  • @EasycoreForLife If you're a fan of easycore, which judging by your name, I'm assuming you are. You should check out the cover of Alkaline Trio's Cooking Wine by The Wonder Years which will be coming out Aug. 30th. Also, would you like a free 18 track digital comp? I love hater haters and they should be rewarded appropriately. Just youtube message me your email address and I'll get it to you asap.

  • @willusclyde2000 The Wonder Years are releasing songs on Aug. 30th? :D

    made my day.

  • @willusclyde2000 spammer, i was looking for your deep thought out comment that you left and i cant seem to fine it, just a bunch of "people" looking for email address' . however; it is an epic cover of one of my favorite songs, YouTube message me your email address and I will hook you up with free tracks from blinks new cd. That doesn't sound shady right?

  • @dav511 uh, not spam. I own the label that releases these songs and reward people who aren't A**holes with free music. I send the tracks via email. So my one person business is not spam, and I'm not collecting info on anyone. Merely sending free tunes. Thanks for assuming the worst though.

  • Voice more gay and SYNTH!

  • Comment removed

  • Four Year Strong the wonder years set your golds >>>>>>>blink 182 and green day

    modern pop punk is best

    RIP [pop rock] band blink 182^^

    blink fan =A pop punk band is a foolish listener who knows only blink 182

  • @emoneettk Not really? I was listening to Four Year Strong way before blink-182 and I love both bands. Actually I think you'll find the majority of people watching this video love both bands.

  • @emoneettk Ramones are the reason why punk rock exists, blink 182 & green day are the reason why there are so many pop-punk bands today, so if u dont listen to them u must be pretty fucked and NEVER RIP blink u traitor, 'cause they r back and will kick every pop-punk band's ass

  • @emoneettk None of those bands would've ever been made had it not been for blink. I like FYS, TWY and SYG, including most other modern pop punk bands, but blink 182 are the granddaddy of them all. All of those bands have very openly cited blink 182 as an influence, and these bands were twittering and shit about the new blink song last night. Just goes to show how all those bands are huge fans of blink. If you like those bands but hate blink, then there is something wrong with you. Seriously.

  • @MrDonkeydong155 naw blink is more like the father not the grandaddy green day and offspring are the grandpas of pop punk because they paved the way for blink 182 in pop punk

  • @MichealZero1 Well, technically yes, but most modern pop punk bands are more so influenced by Blink than Green Day or Offspring. Both of those bands are more on the punk side of pop punk, Blink is more on the pop side, if you get what I'm saying.

  • @MrDonkeydong155 i know what your tryna say yea later in blinks career they were way more pop were green day and offspring always had a stronger punk then pop sound i know where your comin from i just dont listen to pop punk bands besides four year strong and blink 182 im more into more raw punk/hardcore sound i wass just trying to get the truth out there

  • Comment removed

  • Bitch of a cover. I love that its different (synths etc.), but it still really rocks. FYS are awesome! If only they were to play it live more often...

  • @whatthedom Your comment is coherent and original. And because I want to encourage rational comments that have substance I'm going to give you an 18 track Pac Ridge sampler. Just youtube message me your email address and I'll get it to you asap. If you don't want it, that's cool too. I just want to thank you for the comment.

  • buen cover se oie xido :D

  • The original is still better but i love this version! The extra vocals are awesome. I dont go much on the synth stuff... makes it kind of homo but the cover still rocks.

  • @grant182 synth stuff makes it homo...agreed but some of the riffs are better

  • not as good as origial but fucin awesomeand dont even listen to these

  • Fantastic, just that the vocals are too pretty. One thing that was always great about Tom DeLonge's voice was how nasally and dirty it was.

  • blinks version is WAY better

  • Wow a blink cover that is actually good. I like the extra harmony they added in the chorus. Sounds rad!

  • It's true that the song isn't as polished as it probably should have been. But that has a lot to do with FYS having only practiced it as a band once before they recorded it. That little nugget of information gave me an even greater appreciation for the track. Just imagine if they would have had a couple of weeks to perfect it.

  • @willusclyde2000 I'd say this is pretty damn good, especially for being practiced once. The vocals are spot-on.

  • DAMMIT!

    Choruses are great, but would be better if they were more aggressive like in the ending of them.

    ANYWAY GREATEST BLINK182 COVER

  • if this is their beards on a regular basis, imagine how hairy their faces are during no shave november xD

  • @wafflezyumyum they go harder than that. they do no shave forever.

  • stop the hate, this is great!

    i did a rhyme :D

  • damn this cover is ear candy to me

  • No one can top blink. But. Best cover of Dumpweed i've heard! BLINK FO LIFE!

  • @joejdoran You know what I like about you. That you're not a hater. And because you're not a hater I'll hook you up with a free 18 track Pac Ridge sampler. Just message me your email and I'll send the digital sampler your way. It's amazing what being reasonable gets you in life. You may like the songs on the sampler, you may not, either way it's free :)

  • @willusclyde2000

    hey wait up!! i'm not a hater either i also want that sampler!!!

  • @juniorpegasin I like your boldness. Message me your email and you got a deal.

  • @willusclyde2000 can i has sampler too?

  • @epicninjaskilz @epicninjaskilz Since neither of the other guys or gals have messaged me their email. I most certainly can. Message me your email and I'll be more than willing to send you the sampler.

  • @willusclyde2000  dude i want a sampler lol

  • @subaruerock I'm dubbing this sampler "Rock Against Trolls". Clever I know. Seriously though, as long as you're not a troll, and as long as you promise to punch any friends or loved ones who you catch trolling in the face I'll give you a sampler. Just youtube message me your email address with your promise to not be a hater to anyone and you got yourself a sampler.

  • @willusclyde2000

    Wow man, that's such a good act.

    We need more people like you in our world to reward those who act positively.

  • @metalworshiper123 And we need more people like you who encourage people like me to reward those who act positively! I'd offer you a sampler but with a name like metalworshiper I have a feeling you wont like the material much. Then again, you found this page so you know what to do if you want a sampler. Email me and pass on the anti-hater message I'm preaching.

  • @THATKIDRYAN1 Lol.. FYS and ADTR hate each other, don't see that happening.

  • blink does it better

  • everything but the vocals were very well executed. i like this cover for only that reason. i dont like the singer's voice very much.

  • What?!?! at one point Alan's beard was bigger than Dan's?!?! ...well, i never....

  • This is ok. I don't like the gang vovals. I prefer blink's

  • does anyone know what kind of guitar strap that is at :48 PLEASE HELP

  • @XmeliketocommentX dimarzio clip lock strap

  • i like how they sneek in a breakdown. :)

  • @PunkiePiee haha yes! that's actually my favorite part of this already awesome smog! :D

  • I Like Blink's Better <3

    

  • You wanna know something? I love blink and FYS. Just like the man below me. This is awesome.

  • Eh, this is strange, I like it though, I love FYS and Blink.

  • beardcore!

  • Goddamn it.. I think I raped the replay button

  • doesnt sound like 4 years strong and i dont like their voices

  • the only good part is the synth, is sounds super catchy

  • i think they did pretty good on this just my opinion:)

  • Power Beard.

  • its called a COVER SONG for a reason...

  • @navajoclown As he has a beard

  • Hell ya. Tribute to the ones who started it all! (:

  • the snare sounds like complete ass. could just be the recording tho.

  • drums is good. the vioce is a bit popy (too pop)

    the secondary voice should shut...

    and the electro guitar sounds more like a piano..

  • @TheUssr5 no

  • Why are people being little whiny bitches over this cover. That's right it's a COVER. They took the original song (which is good) and made it fit more into their style. This cover is actually pretty good. I'll admit it would have been way better if they recorded nowadays and not when they first started playing. But you all just need to shut the hell up cause you're very annoying. Both Blink 182 and Four Year Strong are good.

  • wow this is fucking horrible

  • @raesmelie if you don't like it, go somewhere else

  • You guys are posting these stupid posts like you haven't listen to four year strong's own material? Everyone knows this is a tribute, and if it wasn't for Blink, this band wouldn't be around. Both are awesome, no one is getting credit except Blink.

  • Blink 182 wrote this song with their own mind and hands, why do these guys get the credit ?

  • hahaha..its very different from blink. blink 182 is legendary punk rock.

    .

  • i am goin to kill these fags

  • yeeeeees!!

  • major auto-tune here, it's still good thoughh

  • majorrr auto-tune right hereee

  • @soll11 not at all...

  • @findanewgoddd not what at all??

  • @soll11 not auto tuned at all

  • @soll11 oh wait theres a little bit. nevermind

  • Comment removed

  • its could but its too techniclly

  • this song sounds fking shit. They raped the song

  • I think this is fucking awesome, I love how they've made it sound a little heavier, the synthesizers are cool too, they've made it sound like their own piece, which is what "covering a song" is all about. Sick stuff dudes.

  • If you think fys did a better job at this song then you don't deserve to be listening to fys or music in general cause you CANNOT compare a COVER to the ORIGINAL, stupid musically uneducated dumbasses

  • @markyramone120 but i can prefer it over the originall in the sense of it sounds better

  • @markyramone120 You can't compare a cover to the original? Yes you can. I do think Blink's version is better, but that was just a stupid comment...

  • @markyramone120 LOL sooo having an opinion is being a "stupid musically uneducated dumbass"? you definitely don't even need to know basic music theory to dictate which one is better. but i like this one

  • @markyramone120 Possibly the dumbest comment I have ever read, and I have read many dumb comments.

  • @markyramone120 do u by any chance have sexual relations with other men because it sounds like you have a huge dick up your ass

  • @crazyrollerblader33 your comment made me cry of laughter.
