'Ready For It' by Taylor Swift, but it's way faster and heavier (Alex's Version)
Музыка
I've never been more exhausted while making a video than I was at the end of this drum session! It was a blast, but my limbs could barely keep up. Hope you guys enjoy this one, and I'll slap it on Spotify soon if people want it.

I think your drummer deserves a raise after this one. You can't let one of the Meltons walk away... too much talent.
Alex, my man, HOW ARE YOU CONSISTENTLY THIS GOOD?!?!?! We NEED the Spotify Upload ASAP

It’s there! I only discovered the new video because I saw it on Spotify 😅 (thanks KZread algorithm 🙄)
As a massive swifty I’m gunna need an entire album of your covers asap. This also could have used some screams

Get Lauren Babic to do some screams and this would be so damn heavy!

As a screamer in a band called nihilist I would gladly lend my vocals to this lol
Most underrated channel on this platform
So...the guitar/bass/drum work on the verses are giving " Underoath | On My Teeth ", and I am 1000% absolutely here for it. NASTEEEEEEEEEE

Reminds me of the “car radio” unplugged of twenty one pilots
Love the darker version of the song. It works so well!
I wasn’t ready for those drums! This will be in my favorites of yours! Crushed it as usual!
This song has been begging for a cover like this. So sick.
Absolutely love the clean/dirty bass line variations. Sounds so dang good. Please make more. These make my pop punk heart sing.
dude you've gotten so good at drums as this channel has progressed, and you were already a great drummer to begin with!

I'm gonna add my own backup fry scream vocals to this while blasting it in the car, thanks alex 🤙
It’s giving A Day to Remember and I love it
This is one of my favorite songs from Reputation and I absolutely LOVED your version of it! As a Swiftie, I love hearing heavier versions of her songs, makes my brain and ears happy. Thank you for this 💜
Feels like MuteMath. Nice job!

Good call. Gonna go listen to them right now.
Idea: Hey Soul Sister as a country ballad
The reharmonization is so transformative. The vibe here is immaculate.
Look at those drums go!
When Blink-182 and Taylor Swift collab, they'll be stopping by here for inspiration

Everything sounds ON POINT, and those drum beats are so sick bro!! Im a huge fan of your art kuddos From Europe!
Your whole channel has awakened my inner 2000s high schooler. It’s all I can listen to. Thank you for sharing!
Dude, this is one of the best covers of anything I've heard in a long time. Great job!
I drive my daughter crazy with the Swift remixes... yours are always better man, she just won't accept it

This is absolute 🔥 FIRE! Love it!
phenomenal.
Can't wait to see it on Spotify! Loved the drumming. Not just kissing up. Great work!
The half-time breakdown was all that my heart needed and you delivered, so good. Thanks Alex!
I was totally thinking 1:10 could use a pick slide, and then 1:28 delivered. Amazing. You read my mind, Alex.
After seeing the Reputation Tour version I knew I needed this one
Alex, you have done it again my friend. I can't believe how absolutely incredible this cover is. My husband and I watched this twice in a row and now we have to keep this mini Alex Melton watch party going. Off to rererewatch more of our faves.
I need this on Spotify! I literally just searched for it right before checking the description!
The bridge was impeccable. Alex you never cease to deliver.
you're such a wild drummer man! so impressive.
Killed it on yet another one.
Almost a Ready For It meets HeavyDirtySoul mashup. Another great vid Alex!!!

I think this might be your best Taylor cover yet. Absolute banger.
Dude that was amazing. I'm consistently blow away by your musicianship, production talents, and of course your incredible musical talent. You've got a gift brother. I'm glad you're using it to make some kick ass music!

Sick drums. Really enjoyed this one!
I just ordered both of your LPs. Keep up the awesome work, buddy!
Fire as always 😊
I first heard this cover an hour ago, I’ve listened to it a dozen times. NGL this is one of the few swift songs I can tolerate and this rendition is 🔥 love it
Enjoyed this one
I'm convinced this is how my girlfriend hears the song.
that verse drum beat is NASTY. love it. this version reminds me of Pendulum's cover of "Anti-Hero" in some ways!
You killed it
Ok, so first 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Then second, strong work on the drums! The whole thing was amazing, but your double bass work and that snare breakdown were perfect. You are a true musician and so impressive!
oh my what a banger!
This may be the best cover yet!!!!
Wow, as usual. And your skills behind the drum set keep getting better and better
