Blink 182 cover shunned by fans

If covering "Ice Ice Baby" wasn't bad enough, Britain's Jedward have covered Blink 182's hit "All The Small Things", leaving thousands of fans of the pop punk icons disgruntled.

If covering "Ice Ice Baby" wasn't bad enough, Britain's Jedward have covered Blink 182's hit "All The Small Things", leaving thousands of fans of the pop punk icons disgruntled.


The Irish pop duo, who are identical twins, rose to prominence after appearing (and losing) on Britain's X Factor program where contestants showcase their 'talents' before a panel of judges. They released "Under Pressure (Ice Ice Baby)" featuring Vanilla Ice earlier in the year, which attracted immense criticism and controversy. Both covers will reportedly appear on the group's upcoming album "Planet Jedward".


Reflecting what fans of Rage Against the Machine did in December to prevent X Factor winner Joe McElderry from getting the Christmas number one with "Killing In The Name", thousands of Blink 182 supporters have decided to purchase the original song in order to prevent the cover from appearing in the UK charts.
