A Buzzfeed blog has discovered a humorous case of music time travel.

Writer Ryan Broderick has pointed out how a 12-year-old music video has connections with one released just last year.

Blink-182's video for 'All the Small Things' - released in 2000 - famously took the mickey out of boybands at the time including Backstreet Boys and 98 Degrees.

One scene from the video saw the band muck around on Santa Monica Beach, the same beach - and the same camera angle - that was used for One Direction's video for 'What Makes You Beautiful'.
