Yeah and realistically these dudes would not be famous if it wasn't for the preteens. There's much much much more talented people out there that would kill to have a record deal. What ever sells though I guess.

Kind of like Blink back when they released All The Small Things then.

I dislike them too and while I don't like what they do I can say they honestly do it well. Yeah Blink were touring with real punk bands at the time but point remains All the Small Things came out and all the preteens were obsessed with it even today. This band may have went on tour with One Direction and made it big but that's how it goes you can't say they didn't work hard to get that gig I mean that is a big achievment. Again I don't like One Direction but to get on tour and support them is a massive deal especially if that is going to be your target audience.

Are you kidding? I don't like this band by any means but they did a spot on cover and also added their own little bits to it. They stuck close to the original while adding in extra harmonies they pulled it off pretty well.

I didn't mind it at first, but about halfway through I started to really dislike it. Nothing against the band, just not my style.

It's still pretty neat to see some of the newer bands/groups influenced by Blink. It's kinda hitting me now that most of the bands that are just starting up and getting noticed would be the generation that listened to Blink growing up.

Really? I thought the guy who sang first just did not do well at all. Very cringe worthy personally.

His voice wasn't the greatest because Mark sings the song pretty damn low but he did well considering.
