Blink 182’s “Dammit” as performed by 7-year-old Nicolas Merritt

I want so very desperately  to not like this; Nicolas Merritt, a precocious 7-year-old with a Mohawk from San Diego, CA, covering the Blink 182 classic Dammit.  By no means is his performance in question… I just don’t have a very high tolerance for stuff like this.  However, I can’t help but tap my foot along while wee Mr. Merritt bangs on his drum set (rather well, too) with his own vocals laid over the video (guitar picking courtesy of his father).  Watch Nick’s version of Dammit here.

By now, Nicolas should be well into recording for his upcoming album, which appears to be a follow up to February’s Punk Rock Elementary.  Nicolas has a few shows coming up so check Dying Scene’s Shows page to get all of the info.
