Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'" has become something of an American classic. It's like "Sweet Caroline" in that when somebody plays it on a jukebox or during a DJ set, people are inevitably going to sing (or scream) along. In this video, Alex Melton takes the 80's song and puts a different kind of nostalgic spin on it - the millennial nostalgia of Blink-182 style pop punk.
Lockdown's been hard on a lot of people. The monotony often saps any creativity we feel and being cooped up is both physically and emotionally suffocating. We had imagined that the situation at nursing homes was even more dire. The anxiety and depression that afflicts both the most vulnerable and people who are, often naturally, nearing the ends of their lives.
The folks at Sydmar Lodge Care Home in Middlesex, however, found a fun way to beat the lockdown blues. Instead of moping about, they teamed up with their caregivers to recreate some of the most iconic album covers of all time. The covers, which range from Elvis Presley to the more current Blink-182, are incredibly wholesome - and look like they were a blast to make.
