[Karen303033]

[newrealization12]

this is one of the coolest covers I've ever come across.

[ducusoare]

Whatever you do, don't let Hannah Montanna's version overtake this one in views.

[ThrowntoReality]

Brilliant in its own way. Rest in peace, Kurt.

[eckoutwilliam]

belle chanson merci

[Lenjaful]

Enchanting banjo 

[Thretinqua]

Sounds like different song

but i like it

[DimNeverEnds]

Don't forget to watch my video for this song is my tutorial video of Kurt Cobain i think really interesting guys!Thank you!

[bowenmcconnie]

oh no, I'm postin this...please check out my youtube channel...I'm starting to get the impression it may too dangerous though...fuck, Patti!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheMcgreary]

I gotta say this song's weird when you can hear and understand the lyrics

[onitag]

the groove at the beginning of the song makes my heart vibrate rather than beat...fucking brilliant!

[md83gt]

This lady is Boss

[Lingam777]

Belle reprise.

[XkojiXXXnikaX]

I am SO glad I found this right after forcing myself to watch/listen to the Miley Cyrus cover of Smells Like Teen Spirit.

[MerxXxiILe]

@XkojiXXXnikaX she killed it,literally!

I get you,my mann T^T

[PearlandOrchid]

I read "Just Kids" I'm planning on sending Patti some bucks ASAP & asking to perform

I'd like to buy "Woolgathering"

[mowmm1]

[kurackurackurac]

Liberal hippies...

[twistedkarm]

[teadrinkerification]

@MerxXxiILe W O R D

[93sunbeam]

Patti Smith an Nirvana = Fucking golden dynamite!

[HollieArtistWard]

Forever a best f*cking tune. 

[JackSAusten]

I´m listening to it for the 1st time and believe me or not, i´m really hesitating which version is better... guess there´s no dispute about it, both versions are just genius!

[Jasonbjamin]

its really good but too slow.

[emviggiano1]

amazing

[Joannatwee]

595 seriously wtf guys are you listening?????

[thelessworld]

Best cover of this song!

[dwalle2]

and...she just turned 65. Let's hear it for "mature" rockers! Rock on, Patti!

[zxcvnmtgb]

It's never easy to cover a classic, but she nailed it.

[mussinamoose]

Ty Ronnie B for making me aware that this exists.

[TheQ1q1q1q]

really nice version

[KieranTaylor86]

i loved nirvana as a kid now i only respect there platform to lead to this very song right here and right now @ UnderTheAffluaence musically you should take your mouth for a sh**e and give it a good wipe it fits like a glove

[LucretiaMerces5]

@KieranTaylor86  What?

[UnderTheAffluence]

The banjo is a bad touch.

[ruaz74]

@UnderTheAffluence I don't think so. :)

[UnderTheAffluence]

@ruaz74 Musically, it doesn't fit. But then again, Patti Smith's purpose is to do the unusual so she can get away with it.

[DaBobsterLobster]

Love love love this cover! I think I like it more than the original.... her voice moves me like no other female vocalist

[vinylmatt68]

truly awesome cover ,totally fresh take on it but keeping the (teen) spirit of the original. love the flamenco(ish) guitar patti is a legend bigger than kirk !!respect to both

[grungeguitar789]

i like her voice, but  i don't like this cover

[1965maple]

One of the few Nirvana covers that's good. What CD is this one on?

[beeingkarina1]

@1965maple its called "12"

[qsalander]

Patti is the Queen!!

[sahardd100]

Yes shes f*king aswesome

[Acoyte1994]

She's a f*cking awesome monster! Great tribute, a legend to a legend. RIP Cobain.

[909BlackSnake909]

Sounds good, but I don't like the vocals. That's my opinion. The rest is a masterpiece.

[sporkular]

<3 I LAVE IT OMG its mean as. I wanna download it.

[ThePancakeTheory]

This is actually the only good cover of this song I've ever heard. Thanks Patti :D

[Hackmoune]

This is... i never knew how to feel about this cover cause im a big Nirvana fan and its hard to me but i will have to say it: ¡¡¡¡¡BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL!!!!

[migueldoom64]

@Hackmoune I feel the same buddy !!

[FriendlyShadow1]

I love how the upright bass and banjo give it that dark sound. And of course, nothing beats Patti's vocals.

[ConorKeogh21]

NIRVANA FOR CHRISTMAS NUMBER ONE!

JOIN FACEBOOK PAGE!

BUY THE SINGLE!

SUPPORT CHILDRENS CHARITY RHYTHMIX!

[mgmmac]

i love this photo!



[maahirkhan]

Pure awesomeness. Cobain would be proud.

[YGOxNGE]

This sounds so amazing.

[torpid2]

I had no idea Patti smith had covered this. When did she do this? Brilliant cover and what an honour for kc

[Raykosza]

this is actually a good remake because she does not try to do grunge she sticks to what she knows, people put others down because they go out of their range and it sounds like crap, just my opinion,ps I liked this and cover it as well.

[HebusxJebus]

Patti is one cool woman.

[Barbirock12]

Yeaaaaaaaaah!!!! <3

[jmpiggypop]

excelente versión de una leyenda del rock,acabo de verla por la tele y me puse a buscarla aquí,es una obra de arte sensacional,manteniendo el espíritu de la canción original

[Yrrats]

This version really moves me. It's sounds so genuine, exactly what Kurt Cobain stood for. Nothing more to say, 587 people are so wrong.

[bobano10011]

I usually dislike female singer covering male singers songs, but this was surprisingly good.

[TheConstantineN]

Patti Smith is a legend, Kurt Cobain is surely proud in heaven...

[HladnorukiLuka]

@TheConstantineN This is rather idiotic comment.

[TheConstantineN]

@HladnorukiLuka

not more than yours...

[freemind1120]

Sublime.

[sorin7486]

Thumbs up if you read Just Kids :D

[angelfloresmcr]

@sorin7486

easily became my favorite book!

[yancybutler]

@CurtisGeorge11 Add homophobic to the below mentioned.

[yancybutler]

@CurtisGeorge11 Listen to her original material before you make that assertion- listen to the song land. After that if you still hold that opinion I will give you cred but to call her nothing more than a cover artist shows a big lack of education on your part.

[Generation1Terrorist]

@swiftymiles the thing with your comment is, even Nirvana didn't have a clue what they were writing about when they made this song. it was intended to be a joke, they were deliberately ripping off the Pixies as a joke, and it ironically became their most well-known song. so when you say cathartic and expressive, then this song is neither of those things.

[eyevix]

@Generation1Terrorist my mind just went BKKKKKXXXXXXXXXXX

[Generation1Terrorist]

@eyevix what?

[Generation1Terrorist]

to be honest i think Nirvana are overrated.. but Patti Smith is brilliant and i love this version of the song. and Territorial Pissings is Nirvana's best song, i love that song

[smallios1]

who the hell is miley cyrus?????

[bhudster10]

@CurtisGeorge11 Gosh, I'm sure Kurt Cobain would love you if he was still around, with your jew/woman hating. Yeah, that's what he was all about I don't think. I reckon he'd hate you, bigot.

[bhudster10]

@CurtisGeorge11 dimwit.

[WILLIAMLIKESPUPPIES]

HOW THE HELL DID PATTI SMITH GET INTO THE R N R HALL OF FAME AND ELVIS COSTELLO TOO

[Marleneeeeful]

@CurtisGeorge11 I love my hair btw...most people do..wannabe??? Im just havin fun ad enjoy learning new things.. People that have no voice in the real world bully people in cyberspace...

[Marleneeeeful]

@CurtisGeorge11 now thats not nice...I guess things are tough in the trailor park these days hhuh?? okokok that wasnt nice either...moving on mr. scrooge

[swiftymiles]

@CurtisGeorge11 Like someone said, this is a Patti Smith video. Your own beliefs on the "case" is irrelevant and worthless and will not change anything, so I don't care.

[Marleneeeeful]

@CurtisGeorge11 wow...I am astounded by your own ignorance. YOu say sheep like your not one of them. YOu are...just out of a different subculture...you sound like a devout Christian with your self righteous "faggot" terminology pointing out how screwed up everyone ELSE is. must be tough for you being so enlightened living in such a crooked world...ah...

[Marleneeeeful]

@Marleneeeeful cant we be friends??? I am DIGGIN' that slim shady haircut:D

[Marleneeeeful]

@CurtisGeorge11 Its not like you were there...maybe she did maybe she didnt...ITS A FUCKIN PATTI SMITH VIDEO....

[swiftymiles]

Respond to this video... I am a girl just so you know.

[swiftymiles]

@CurtisGeorge11 Courtney played no part in Kurt's death. In fact nobody but Kurt played a part in his death. Suicide is an actual thing. It happens to seriously depressed and overwhelmed people. Kurt loved Courtney. Courtney loved Kurt.

[swiftymiles]

@CurtisGeorge11 HAHAHAH I'm not even going to respond to other things you said because you stated Courtney killed Kurt and that is just the most uneducated and unenlightened and ignorant thing to say.

[pammypja]

It sometimes takes someone elses work to set off an artist, I have much love for Patty and much love for Kurt. Kurts voice is gone, rock on Patty. Easter is still one of my favorite albums to this day.

[RedSkiesAwaitUs]

Not having heard of patti, I would've thought this cover to be a horrible bastardization of Cobains great work.. I was pleasantly wrong. It has character, that's all I can say :)

[ccipollini1984]

I feel patti would do a great cover of Lithuim

[mapleavenue77]

An interpretation and performance of your song by Patti Smith is one of the greatest honours that can be given to any rock musician.

If you don’t appreciate and enjoy this, you’re a musical philistine.

[goldblueman77]

Bloody Brilliant Cover, Wish more artist could be as good, and of course it might not be exact, "it's a cover" artist put their own spin on them an alter words an phrases all the time. "It's called music art and creativity".

What dont you get about it. what good would it be if she just exactly replicated the song. What a dull world that would be. lets all do the same thing shall we ?

Ignorance criticises true creativity.

[TheStrangeCircus]

can't everybody just appreciate the song? Yes, nirvana wrote it but patti covered it, nothing strange in that. She made her own version so don't expect exactly the same song. Listen to it with new ears and open your mind.

[cognatefriend]

Patti is the best artist alive, she exudes life.

[Rockarco]

thiis suucks, like parody of nirvana.

[piggyman450]

It's "hello hello hello how low" and other things were fucked up too I mean I liked it but come on you need to be exact when your doin a song like Teen Spirit.

[mrkheaven]

Thank you very much for this wonderful piece of art ! <3

[BgKnoccoutGangstaDre]

This fucking sucks. NIRVANA OWNZ!!

[SCSNSE]

@BgKnoccoutGangstaDre Any musician who can claim to be a punk musician would be honored by this. There's a reason why Ms. Smith is referred to as the "Godmother of Punk".

[BgKnoccoutGangstaDre]

@SCSNSE Nirvana isn't punk dumb ass. More the like "the godmother of suck."

[Pitagyrossalonikios]

@SCSNSE Don't even bother with him, waste of time...

[TheMrcreampiez]

You shouldn't be trying to act like u can sing this song

[BJVial]

Patti Smith & Tori Amos are the only people that should cover this song =)

[DegreatnpowerfulOz]

Rock on Patti!

[GameReplay101]

Fck u it's crap

[brigitteloper]

wonderful

[swiftymiles]

is superior....

[swiftymiles]

Let me just say that no one who truly and purely appreciates cathartic, expressive music like Nirvana or Patti Smith would not possess the mindset to call a 19 year old pop star a slut...Miley Cyrus cannot win-- if she covers a Britney Spears song, it's typical and gross and she has horrible music taste, and if she covers a Nirvana song, she has not a clue of what she's singing about...People sound so ignorant and crude beating down teenage girl pop stars to prove a point that their music taste

[az0r22]

@swiftymiles Beating down teenage pop stars is equally ignorant to beating down ignorant people trying to prove to others that their music taste is good . Both aim at showing others you are smarter , which is what you are doing there and what I am doing here ,I suppose . We are both ugly and pretentious , so we might as well not argue about every single fucking thing .

[swiftymiles]

@az0r22 You're right.

[az0r22]

@swiftymiles :) <3

[RHCPlads]

fit

[reallyhughish]

Anyone else here because Sam Shepard plays banjo?

[ColtVonInc]

@reallyhughish Sam Shepard plays banjo on this? That is incredibly awesome. Thank you very much that piece of information.

[tjookie00]

AWESOME!

[enjoyTHC]

miley cyrus performing this song is a disgrace. Harrassy! Blasphemy! Shame on you Miley Cyrus!

[xxlostinmusic]

@enjoyTHC Miley Cyrus should be stabbed to death

[idonthatebabies]

@xxlostinmusic

Calm down.

[xxlostinmusic]

@idonthatebabies i was exaggerating wow it's the internet don't take it so seriously

[idonthatebabies]

@xxlostinmusic

I get that you were exaggerating. I obviously didn't think you actually want to stab someone just because you don't like their music. But I still meant what I said, you need to calm down. I don't like Miley Cyrus' music either. But why are you complaining about her on a video that has nothing to do with her? Because she also covered this song? I hated her cover of the song too, but complaining about it here just makes you sound like an immature prick.

[xxlostinmusic]

@idonthatebabies i was just responding to a comment chill

[sortedm]

Why is there four minutes of silence at the end of this?

[dukesofapollo]

here we are now, entertain us .

[xXOtakuPageXx]

Day 12: Food is running low, still didn't @TheAlphabetPony011 comment.Don't know if I'm going to survive longer.

[astroblaster56]

This is so fucking great.

I am so fucking blitzhed right now......

[Individual1991]

Great.

[GavinS1965]

Poor Johnny Poor.

[myopicvision]

cool



[chelseamuse72]

both versions are sublime in their own way. kurt cobain had patti smith to thank for a lot of the ushering in of punk in the u.s., and here she acknowledges that connection. beautiful beautiful beautiful.

[mpakana]

A BILATERAL VERSION OF THE SONG!!! I LOVE HER VOICE. SHE IS THE BEST!!! (A slut called Cyrus or something, had killed the song! How deplorable!!!)

[TheGibitzMachine]

@mpakana What do you mean by bilateral?me no get it.

[machoswedishpotato]

I like patti smith but this time i think she destroyed an amazing song (probably becouse i am a nirvana fan)

[tranurse]

@machoswedishpotato well look at it this way, there wouldn't have been a nirvana without there having been a patti smith.

[machoswedishpotato]

@tranurse your damn right about that. patti is one of the bases to modern rock

[PenitenciarAiud]

download link ? :(

[borhardtluger]

охуительно

[willbrewale]

This Girl is SHIT HOT! and she always has been since I first herd her around 1978.

Yohooo!

[QAlexandar]

No one like Kurt

[JacobManson77]

@QAlexandar sorry but in version of nirvana this song is little comercial crap for teens... this is psychodelic perfection

[glennst011]

@JacobManson77 Well said...  Not much to add.

[VogueShow]

best cover ever! 

[llc263]

I love her. I loved when she and flea did handstands on the beach in her art documentary

[chathura0004]

I've managed to relive in the 90's for 9:24 secs.What a fabulous cover!!This track deserves more views!

Long live Patti Smith!! 

[metramil]

la mejor haciendo algo de los mejores....

[MrZebraish]

woow .. But i think that original is better :D

[jfisher4]

@MrZebraish you are doing youself and music fans everywhere by comparing a cover to its original. apples and oranges, my friend.

[ScarletFyre83]

this is a seriously epic cover!!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE the banjo!!! fantastic version, never mind what closed minded people with no actual musical talent think. You rocked it ;)

[Potatofulable]

@theatlantisrise

U need to shut up cuz ur probably a 32 year old loser who lives with his parents n spends his time gettin "smart" with ppl on YouTube, so go fuck yourself

[superclaydude]

Smells like Bob Dylan. :P

[TheSugarStreet]

@notnats2005...It is on the album twelve.....

[akaedia]

Trash!

[npagano05]

@akaedia

you dont get it.

[Maninthebox21]

I prefer Tori Amos Version, but I do enjoy the Folkyness in the Guitar

[Lanakikuta]

Hmmm it's different and I like it. Where is she from?

[RSorbyGuitars]

check out my fingerstyle cover of this -

I'm 14 so feed back would be great :)

[notnats2005]

anyone know if this is on an album or not?



[methozian]

smells like milf spirit :D:D:D:D

[nottoberemembered]

@methozian

I hope thats (M)usician (I)'d (L)ike to (F)ollow you mean!!! If this song gives you sexual urges I'd be worried!

[methozian]

she is too old to smell like teen spirit-:D:D:D:D:D

[alabamajoejackjim]

@methozian : when you'll be too old, you'll realize you've never done something good with your life. She already did a thousand times.

[Potatofulable]

I love this song!! Some kids at my school played it at our pep rally yesterday they sounded just like this, it was amazing!!

[theatlantisrise]

@Potatofulable Not very peppy...

[glory2elves]

Wow, as a person who is immensely particular of covers/remakes and an avid disliker of Nirvana, this is pretty good!

[somarvelis]

fucking AWESOME. i love patti. she is my fave of ALL. she lives in my heart. she is the tiger of my heart!!!!

[DeadlySin1000]

way better then miley cyrus... i had to shut that off lmao i was like wtf is she doing ... i think kurt would have liked this :) 

[somarvelis]

@DeadlySin1000 kurt would have fucking creamed on this one.

[MissAnorexorcist]

One of the very few Teen Spirit covers I respect. Not only does Patti Smith do the song justice, she puts her own spin on it.

[glory2elves]

@MissAnorexorcist : That's what a cover is, someone putting their own spin on whatever song they're covering. When the song sounds pretty much the same as the "original" it's just a remake.

[anycoloursyoulike]

patti smith can do everything.
