Alexandra Kay - Dammit (Blink-182 Cover) Audio Video

[@mysticdreamer364]

All of us Blink 182 fans know this song always hit us hard...this rendition is amazing and really helps anyone else understand the meaning behind it.

[@Fatima-bi2sm]

Right! She is singing this for those that have missed out on this song for the last 30 years.

[@francissampson3258]

That is the perfect comment! Cause not everyone has the same interests in music types and coming from someone who listens to everything and loved blinks version! Im one who take the lyrics in more than music or anything else and there’s so many rap, heavy metal, punk emo, and other song that the lyrics are deep but some people don’t know them so it’s great to see these kind of songs done differently for other people to feel the power of the lyrics

[@The_B3aver]

It was already a sad song... but damn... this comment hits hard

[@israelperez6277]

Didn’t really appreciate the lyrics until this song

[@alightinthestorm]

On behalf of us 90’s kids, thank you for a meaningful cover of one of our favorite hits 🙏🏼 As angsty high school kids, we loved this as a punk song… now all these years later as parents we can appreciate it as a soft melodic jam… as they say “I guess this is growing up.”

[@EDENRAIN3]

Well said!

I get this is growing up! Love it.. but your right, this cut deep, makes you wonder how many songs you could do this to. 🎉❤🤘🤘

This song already hit hard but….. damn. Just damn.

[@tilanaclaydon1576]

Not only does this show her amazing voice but also Blinks amazing songwriting

[@blakewilliams30]

Yes! They were just kids when they wrote it too ❤

[@ignitionwolf1603]

She needs to do a whole album of Blink 182 covers, this is hauntingly beautiful and heartbreaking to listen to

"Did you hear, he loves her." 😭Thats so much more heartbreaking!!

[@MK-285]

I was wondering how she was gonna handle that line. Didn't think the original like fit the vibe. She nailed it!🔨👌

[@MrCanadaBeers]

100% agree

[@bradoneil536]

That change really floored me -- made me think about how there isn't always a lot of difference between the L-word and the F-word, almost more a matter of who is telling the story more than any difference in what two people did together.

[@BillyBobBiden]

Sung like a young lady and well done

[@pinskipalace1170]

Blasphemy!!! “Tha'll shall not add to the words which Blink has written, nor take away from it” - Blink 1:82

[@pbfreak09]

“I guess this is growing up” hits completely now. 90s kid here and loved this song back in middle school and it hits completely different now. In the best way possible. It’s like the song matured with us overtime and it’s like hearing from a different perspective now and it works perfectly! Beautifully done.

[@susancampbell1480]

Hits so hard!

[@michaelyanus4134]

I came here as a long time Blink 182 fan, and this was one of my favorite songs growing up. This cover enriches and clarifies the original in so many ways, I'm shook and chilled and all the great things, wonderful release

[@meagantrout2127]

Yes like it just works! It was an emotional song for me despite the “pop punk” vibe and I think this really brings out the emotions.

[@RyanNiklawski]

Yes, this was the song of my youth. And I love this version so much.

[@2jlangf]

I love this song and I love all your music. I listen to your music when I’m in my car, when I’m at home cleaning or anytime I turn the radio on. I’m always looking for your songs. I hope one day you come to a town near me.

[@krissyls9323]

I'm loving it so far!! I'm going through a rough time like She is!!!

[@trgeorge21]

Just the wrong vibe for this song

[@christopherrosson2400]

This cover is exactly what covers are supposed to be. A unique representation of a story retold. I really enjoyed hearing this and appreciate your work.

[@danielheath4174]

This cover is right up there with the Johnny cash cover of hurt! 100%

[@iWinttv]

That was 1,000 times better than I expected it to be. Holy shit.

[@jasonjewell1667]

😂😂😂 welcome to Alexandra Kay. She is out opening for Tim McGraw and now JellyRoll. She is a beast.

[@joeallen781]

Crazy how this really changes the emotional vibe and really brings out the impact of the lyrics

[@MattyJ]

This, ladies and gentleman... Is how you do a cover and make it your own. God damn! Lol Apparently I'm not making my covers as my own as I need to. This is inspiring.

[@ryanritter9520]

Omg...first time I've ever cried during a blink song...awesome cover

[@90Geeza]

Yes especially the part where everybody's gone

[@cassiedelfin]

I've said it a million times, AK is gonna be absolutely huge! Her talent is truly endless! As a blink fan, you absolutely gained a whole nother crowd covering this! We're here for it all!

[@chrisglazener3613]

This is one of my favorite Blink songs and I love this version. She nails it. I wonder if Mark, Tom & Travis have heard it and what they think?

[@jasonjewell1667]

I'm sure they would love it.

[@taylorpike1191]

Mark and Tom wrote it with Scott, their original drummer (according to AZ Lyrics) so I'd imagine they would've had to OK the cover. If not them then the record company.

[@korodyj]

@@taylorpike1191You’re allowed to cover songs without the band saying okay… That’s why cover bands exist..

[@taylorpike1191]

I just looked it up and you're closer to being correct than I was. But this was recorded (we're watching it right now) When a new song is written, it automatically gets copyrighted, granting the creator the exclusive rights to ‘make copies’ of the work. Therefore, to legally release a cover song, you must obtain a license from the copyright holder. Also, performing a cover song live that isn’t going to be recorded and published is normally fair game too. Technically, these performances are covered by a venue’s PRS license, which leaves them responsible for paying the original rightsholder of the song a performance royalty.

[@RohitSharma-mi8gt]

He loves her is almost as sad as the og lyric ! Blink’s Writing is really so so good

[@amandasweet1993]

I love this girl so much she’s has such amazing voice❤

[@jaybe33]

If I had never heard the song before I could easily believe this was the original version. This is incredible

[@syrenking704]

I'm sitting here, holding my nana's hand as I try to find a way to say "goodbye" to the woman who helped raise me. Thank you for this cover AK.

[@stevenmorrison3014]

To think this song was written on a napkin in under five minutes by Mark Hoppus. Incredible.

[@joshuayork2231]

How do you know that? I’d love to read those details.

[@stevenmorrison3014]

@@joshuayork2231 google “mark wrote dammit in 5 minutes” I believe the initial story came from a book his sister wrote about blink but I can’t remember exactly. He wrote it about a breakup that never actually happened.

Damn..🥺 Hard to hold back the tears on this one. I cannot believe how beautiful you covered one of my favorite childhood songs. The way you sing it has so much more honesty and feeling behind it. Truly a beautiful singer/sound. Thank you for this 🙏🏼❤

[@MeNotYou13]

Song makes waaaaay more sense now and gives me chills listening to her sing it. Dont think it could have been covered any better.

[@TheRealtree2]

I am a huge Blink fan. This is one of their best tracks....but this version hits right in the guts so much harder. Wow.

[@OrypCainam]

4th time replaying and it’s insane to me the difference in emotion that comes from this version. Not angst, not drama. Sadness. It’s true. When words fail music powers on.

[@theconsolesimguy3170]

As a Blink-182 fan I actually think this version is superior to the original but I still can’t get past how the tempo and instrument changes changes the whole dynamic and gives it a whole new meaning

[@b.w3057]

I thought the same thing.

[@benw2119]

Lol then you’re not a blink 182 fan. Yikes.

[@tyrellcook9684]

@@benw2119 that’s what I’m saying. This is straight up boring to listen to. Has none of the jump or the energy the original had. It’s like it’s trying to put me to sleep

[@tylersmith4856]

I was in a band in high school and this song was always always on out set list.. never thought of cutting the tempo in half.. one of my favorite punk songs and I love it country style almost as much

[@countrychick-bx6wl]

Such a beautifully heartbreaking song when done like this! I have listened to this song at least a hundred times since you released the full version a couple of weeks ago!! This should be all over country radio right now!! Another smash hit AK!!

[@tracyridgeway73]

Same!!!!

[@tracyridgeway73]

I agree 100%!

[@shall2387]

I remember when this came out as a teenager. It always had that heartbreaking feel to it an especially with the music video. My favorite blink 182 song by far and after everytime I listen to it, the only word I can find is "Dammit"

[@Greentunic84]

Me too. 💔

[@jeanettekos]

So beautiful! I just listened over and over and my son was laughing at me saying "you gonna cry mom", I said nooooo she just sings this so beautifully. Huge fan AK!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤ great job like always!!!

[@joshtice9685]

This song deserves this kind of emotion put into it

[@boredshirtless8650]

Used to rock the hell out to this as a teen, so many good memories. Now I'm grown and listening to this rendition and it changes the whole perspective of the song, this hits different. Alexandra Kay, you are talented and have evidently reconnected so many people with their teenage years whilst simultaneously painting an entirely different picture of this song for so many of us. Thank you.

[@chriswilson3126]

Blink weren't just some jokey band messing around, they wrote some awesome stuff.

[@ye6973]

they actually had some real ass songs. This one, Adam’s Song, Stay Together for the Kids and One More Time all hit some hard topics

[@robinlages6673]

She has such a beautiful voice.

[@burthorton1867]

Haunting rendition. I'm almost 40 and this may be the greatest cover I have ever seen. No matter which version is your personal preference, those lyrics strike to the core. "We'll pretend its okay" is so relatable and heartbreaking. To all my mid 30 to mid 40 somethings out there. Hope life is going good and if not, I hope it does sooner than later.

[@nicholasjarvis3260]

Never realized how good this song is when sung in this style and played with country vibes ….very good job, it’s not so common to see an artist play a cover and actually make it their own version, how they hear the song in their head.

[@marilealouise3953]

If this played on a country station NO ONE would know the difference. Wow.

[@richardmoreno5445]

I remember listening to the original back in my twenties but this cover is so powerful. I think slowing this song down and having AK sing it is what this song really needs to showcase the emotions and heartfelt message Blink 182 intended with this song. I cannot help but listening to this version over and over again.

[@alisarogers1485]

This version is amazing! Thank you

A day late, a buck short I'm writing the report On losing and failing When I move, I'm flailing now And it's happened once again I'll turn to a friend Someone that understands And sees through the master plan But everybody's gone And I've been here for too long To face this on my own Well, I guess this is growing up Well, I guess this is growing up And maybe I'll see you At a movie sneak preview You'll show up and walk by On the arm of that guy And I'll smile and you'll wave We'll pretend it's okay This charade, it won't last When he's gone, I won't come back And it'll happen once again You'll turn to a friend Someone that understands And sees through the master plan But everybody's gone And you've been here for too long To face this on your own Well, I guess this is growing up Well, I guess this is growing up Well, I guess this is growing up Well, I guess this is growing up Well, I guess this is growing up Well, I guess this is growing up
