Kurt Kobain himself said he "didnt give a flying fuck" about the lyrics, they werent really supposed to mean anything, he just wanted to let his anger out.
I guess Kurt's wish of setting a principal on fire came true in this video , he said he wanted that on his video but the company that made his video said that would be to hardcore for teen public... (2:18)
MTV: What about Weird Al's "Smells Like Nirvana"? Cobain: Oh, I laughed my butt off. I thought it was one of the funniest things I ever saw. He has some good people working for him. Those people really know how to... I mean, I'm sure he has a lot to do with it, but they really know how to reproduce things to the T. He had the exact same setup. It's the same video with him in it. It's great.
"We're a rock band from Seattle where it sure beats raising cattles" HAHAHA!!! Clever lyrics. Weird Al is a music genius. The "cow sound" part is also funny. It's actually a guitar effect on the original Nirvana song.
You say Jonas brothers I say nirvana, You say hana Montana I say metalica, you say bieber I say Tenacios D, you say ndubz I say Dragonforce, you say rap I say metal, you say pop I say rock, you say RnB I say Grunge. if you agree copy pasta this into any good music and all crap music adding in swears (cusses)
92% of teens have turned to pop and hip-hop.If you are part of the 8% that still listens to real music, copy and paste this message to 5 other videos. DONT LET ROCK N ROLL DIE ! , P.S Thumbs Up If You Agree.
My god, don't you have some sense of humor? Kurt Cobain himself laughed his ass off watching the video clip and he himself authorized Yancovic to make the parody.
@TheSpitt11 al yankovic is a renowned parodist, and good parodies are really hard to make, it's harder than it looks you have a lot of stuff to consider including copyright infringements
@TheSpitt11 uh... You do realize that Kurt Cobain actually found this to be a genius parody? I meant, he cracked for the whole video the first time he watched it and said "I only knew for sure that I hit it big when Al parodied one of my song"
You can't get offended when you get a parody as silly as this. Still, he's right, the lyrics for "Smells Like Teen Spirit" are mostly nonsense. Probably about angsty teenagers wanting to scream their lungs out and complain about everything.
I did not follow any of this story art lol Palm palms Arm pit hair a migit holding a light a head ripped off .... burping and a bending guitar looks like hes high a FREAKING COW a guy with a bacon egg an cheese lol a SHEEP? gargleing a man on fire Kazoos a trumpet basketball team Mop with a tu tu in side WTF Lol
THIS VIDEO HAS IT ALL FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't decide if my favourite part is Dick Van Patten eating a sandwich in the crowd or the headbanger who knocks the cookies out of the girlguides hands and then runs away.
Wow all you haters to Weird Al you need to stop. He gets PERMISSION to make a PARODY of THEIR SONG!! So stop hating on Weird Al he is awesome and funny.
Kurt knew his humor. If you two are posting online, maybe you should go take a grammar course! I was born and raised in California, spoke English up until ninth grade, and I still took a few grammar courses... SO THERE! STICK IT TO THE MAN!
yeah that's right CLA82529. in fact, WEird Al even ask Kurt's permission to make a parody of his hit. when Kurt, Krist and Dave watch the music video of weird al's parody of their song, they laugh hysterically. IGNORANTS!
This is actually quite hiliarious. And for those of you who think Al's dissing Nirvana, you do understand that he actually had to get their permission to make this parody? So, yeah, it's a joke, and anybody can see that.
@woohoootomic80 hahaha that guy the janitor is same janitor in the original video.. That guy is Rudy Larosa, a true janitor, he work as janitor in the director's company... lol
Could it be that the "Eff parents" was just kinda the general "I hate everything" pouser additude that was prevelant then and now? Could be the swear word wasn't as much literal ("I'm cussin 'cause Kurt did") as much as almost figurative ("pop culture at this time was always 'eff you', so I'll put that in").
@fritzwents : you are just a sucker... Weird Al at least is creative, which you'll obviously never be... You are evidently a couch potato fed on NRA and KKK, and YOU NEED TO PUT TO YOUR PLACE which is the dog kennel !!!
