    Ryan Key recently shared a new rendition of Yellowcard’s “Ocean Avenue” on his Patreon, but YouTuber Alex Melton has taken the song in a different direction and recorded “Ocean Avenue” in the style of Angels and Airwaves.

    All of Alex's stuff is so good. And the new version of Ocean Avenue from Ryan is awesome.

    Whoa! Thanks for the feature! I had a lot of fun studying Tom's stage presence for this one.

    There was a week where I must've had 15 different friends send me a link to your third eye blind/blink mashup. Kudos, Alex!

    I’m probably in the minority...
    Musically, I like this more than the original.
    But...
    I totally understand what’s going on here but I could do without the Tom vocal impression.
    If that wasn’t there I would fully be on board and think everything about this is better than the original!

    I'm really glad he didn't go the cheap direction of going overboard with the "oights". Like, I really appreciate that he didn't do "staying up all noiiight"

    Might be Spider-Man...

    This is so good, and definitely getting the Biffy vibes.
