 &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;div align="left"&amp;gt;We're not sure what's going on with Blink-182 right now. First we see on Twitter that Tom DeLonge has &amp;lt;a href="http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/tom-delonge-leaves-blink-182-20150126"&amp;gt;indefinitely left the band&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; and read statements from Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker confirming the news, then we get a frazzled email from his publicist emphatically telling us that the guitarist DID NOT quit the band and now the pendulum has swung back with a &amp;lt;a href="http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/blink-182s-hoppus-barker-blast-ungrateful-disingenuous-tom-delonge-20150126?page=3"&amp;gt;blistering interview&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; between Hoppus and Barker and &amp;lt;i&amp;gt;Rolling Stone&amp;lt;/i&amp;gt; that calls their ex-bandmate "disrespectful" and "ungrateful," among other things and says there's "no ambiguity" about the fact that he left Blink-182. &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Well, whatever is going on in DC Shoe-wearing, SoCal-vibing, Blink-182 land, we can at least take some solace with this new cover of their 1999 smash, "All the Small Things," by &amp;lt;a href="http://www.papermag.com/2014/12/why_the_hottest_music_movement_is_anonymous.php"&amp;gt;PC Music producer GFOTY&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;. Like much of what the collective of anonymous UK-based producers pump out, this version is glitchy, pop-y and features vocals that sound like they're from a member of B*witched. The cover is part of a larger mix from GFOTY called "Cake," which the producer says was inspired by the following:&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&amp;lt;i&amp;gt;"Basically Cake Mix was created after I got with this really hot guy who had a GF - I mean, I thought he was hot at the time but in reality he looks like that really weird bloated face when your making a Mii character on your Wii - you know the one yeah? It's kinda just about me stealing people's boyfriends and being abnormally huge. This one guy on Twitter said he saw me out once and I was way smaller then he imagined and to 'never meet your heroes' or something like that and I mean like I'm 169cms (5Â5Â) and I wear high shoes all the time too so like HOW TALL DID HE WANT ME TO BE? So I guess - yeah it's kinda inspired by that guy on Twitter primarily. So I guess cake has nothing to do with the mix apart from me making cakes and stuff."&amp;lt;/i&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;The cover starts around the 9:35 mark and you can give it a listen, above. Also be sure to send positive thoughts to the boys of Blink. Let's hope they figure that shit out.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;
