THE VASELINES - Jesus Wants Me For A Sundeam

[ECHOdavidoff]

jesus IS the fucking sun -,-

[beaubishop121]

the vaselines wrote this song after there kids came home singing a hymn they had learned at their school called "jesus wants me as his sunbeam" or something. the tune is completely original because if you listen to the hynm it's a different melody and disgustingly hard to listen to... blooody mormons.

not a nirvana songo ... althought once nirvana covers you a song ... its no longer yours

[Portholes]

It's a great song. However, it's like 20 years old. Nirvana obviously liked it and their cover helps to keep it alive. The youngsters of today, who don't even know The Vaselines exist, discover great music in such ways. Maybe Kurt and the boys just wanted to make sure good music stayed alive.

[WillyMcCoy50]

Reminds me of Hawkwind

[Chris197980CH]

How come the singer didn't age?

[0Jitox0]

Kurt said that it was the seconde best band in the world and the first the beatles..

[alejaypipe]

she looks like the pomplamoose´s singer

[dev19971]

ok for all u idiots calling other people idiots out there its a rendition of a church song they didnt writ it eather thay jus sang it

[drackul81]

Kurt did an aweson job on this song

[nickhogai]

fuck you all, kurt and the vaselines are both amazing, so stop fucking around making war between the fucking bands... fuck.. XD

[tenfifty420]

You're all elitists

[iBEkewll]

Nope, Kurt did a cover of "Jesus Dont Want me For a Sunbeam." It was a great Nirvana cover too. But he def. didn't right it lol. Now that that's established... let's enjoy the music

[MrIbanos]

@iBEkewll He didn't write it, either.

[Kurdt1990]

ok we all know that Cobain didnt write this song, shut the fuck up and just listen to the song

[killerlop3000]

porke se llamaban las vaselinas....porke el pata le daba con vaselina ala flaka o que?

[HTVinterviews]

I love Nirvana, but they never wrote this song! please listen carefully what Kurt said before playing this song!! Nirvana´s unplugged was 80% covers, well maybe 60%

[havee16]

im christian, coming across this song means alot to me, he doesnt want a bs religion hes wants the real you , thanks really helped me out today

[synesthesick]

i bet you all do know this band beacause of him

[PBANDSNOW]

When this song was covered by Nirvana at their 1991 Paramount show, Kurt opens the concert by saying “This is a song by the Vaselines"

[tasfa10]

sunbeam instead of sundeam? (:

[shindayuki]

i prefer nirvana but i also prefer this and respect this orginal version.... its just i love the nirvana's version because of the sound's atmosphere.....

[blindriv3r]

@acp025 Hagstrom Viking, great guitars, have the same one, but w/a Bigsby instead of that elegant H harp shaped tailpiece

[nmacog]

if you listen to this on Nirvana Unplugged - Cobain actually states this is a song by The Vaselines :)

[antonoliverto]

stupid people

[weeweeeewee]

I prefer this to the Nirvana one.

[DtotheP1313]

Fuckin amateurs think this is a Nirvana original.

[94cmills]

Good Nirvana cover this right guys ;)

[RamonPunki13]

que musika

ta buena

[pecharosky]

@xXScorpion69Xx Estupido?? ,yo nunca dije que esta canción fuera de Nirvana....

[APEXchannel1]

fantastic song wow this is ace

[brainfeeeeder]

at first I thought the guy playing lead was employing a slide, but I think he's just using the whammy bar throughout the entire song.... it really takes things to another level. beautiful version.

[emmerfarro]

So lush and beautiful!

[DanielRadcliffe777]

SUNDEAM SUN. DEAM.

[txoree]

Oh, great song. Sunbeams are never made like me.

[milster999]

@quercus1959 yes.... Worked up.... Like you....

[MrBuk86]

Great version, Love them crazy crazy Vaselines. BTW this is their song, not Nirvanas, although they did a nice job. But the Vaselines are top.

[SWbro94]

Quit with the arguing, everybody! Just enjoy this great version of this song.

[samruiz0000]

this song kinda makes me sad :(

[ovelonse]

Fuck Nirvana

[AliceinNirvana27]

@ovelonse fuck you. nirvana kicks ass

[PivotMakeranimations]

@ovelonse dont hate them just because they did a cover, this was Kurt´s favourite band

[adnane007money]

this song is a vaselines song , the nirvana has just repeat it 

[Canyoudigityesyoucan]

Kurt Cobain sent me here, rather depressive but

[AuntMartha]

What a beautiful rendition of this song. I like the acoustic versions the Vaselines have done, but I like this one better.

[milster999]

Lol... So worked up over one little comment... Ahaa

[quercus1959]

@milster999 (Lol... So worked up over one little comment... Ahaa)

You don't know nothing about Nirvana, they made a lot of covers from other bands and persons. If you are Nirvana fan you must know that.

[milster999]

@jenevertranen @wipers86 @pennyroyaltea27 actually it was originally called jesus DOESNT (not don't) want me for a sunbeam when it was originally sang by the guy who wrote it called Kurt. Just sayin.

[steffmcmullan]

@milster999 Kurt who? Youdont seriously believe that Kurt Cobain wrote this song do you? You have to be trolling, because all you need to do is listen to unplugged in new york where cobain himself says its a Vaselines song.

[kah717gibran]

@steffmcmullan It seems all of the best songs on the unplugged in new york album were covers.

[steffmcmullan]

@kah717gibran Thats not a bad thing though is it? My favourite song on Unplugged is 'Where did you sleep last night"

[ADHDBasketcase]

@steffmcmullan Actually he said it was an old Christian folk song that the Vaselines took and made their own

[tartan1985]

@steffmcmullan trust no faith in retards bro :) young kids claiming they know it all. Its not our fault kids these days don't have a clue.

[cakeuk]

@steffmcmullan: Or live at Reading 1992

[CheRevolution76]

@milster999 Kurt Cobain wrote this? The internet truly does give a voice to the imbecile.

[mmmbrunommm3]

@CheRevolution76 Come on, there's no need to do it :( She's a just a young girl ... Just tell her it was not Kurt.A lot of people made the same question here.

[stefsterman]

@CheRevolution76 in this video kurt even says it is form the band the vaselines /watch?v=uMan6STpZAE

[shady10413]

@milster999 what a dummy

[alexoconnor5]

@milster999 iddiott

[SurelynotTHErose]

@milster999 You're a douche. Everyone know's Nirvana covered it, they made no secret of the fact. This is the original. Don't comment on things unless you actually know what you're talking about.

[thomascompton800]

@milster999 oh piss the fuck off you cock sucker

[TheBuzzCatt]

@milster999 ...and we all know that kurt wrote the star spangled banner for hendrix too.

[wipers86]

@milster999 actually it's an old christian song Kurt said he thinks it's an old christian song but they do it the Vaselines way, and I've heard over people saying it's an old christian song, it sounds nothing like something Kurt would write, and on the Vaselines record it's called wants not don't or doesn't

[LyriiczBoii]

@milster999 Just like Green day wrote My Generation! Oh wait..

[manfordization]

@milster999 Kurt didn't write the song! whatever....now go listen to justin bieber!

[imooreory]

@milster999 lol knob head

[termite2491]

Love the Vaselines!

[wipers86]

@CheckOutMyToys its actually jesus wants me for a sunbeam the vaselines version is called that if you dont believe me check out the vaselines discography on google

[CheckOutMyToys]

It's Jesus Don't Want Me For A Sunbeam

[jenevertranen]

@CheckOutMyToys No it isn't, fanboy.
