Paul Anka Smells Like Teen Spirit

[xfranzx11]

no puedo creerlo nirvana, nirvana.....

[LeoncioRnr]

Mira vos... el negro paul... tremenda versión mejor que hannah banana

[2112bigmack]

...thats what the lyrics are? a mosquito? really?...

[TheCMKXer]

@2112bigmack yes, he says 'a mulatto!, an albino! a mosquito my libido!

He's talking about the white feminist mindset toward interracial sex and their pleasure in belittling

the libido of white men as nothing but a pest like a mosquito.It means that white women are being impregnated with mulattos, and a mulatto is the equivalent of an albino, a freak of birth, while his libido is considered to be not more than a mosquito. Cobain didn't write it, either, btw.

[LoverElephant97]

love this!

[bassmandeadguns84]

p.s

kurt on live,is no happy

[bassmandeadguns84]

wowwwwwwwwwww

[scotts045]

Kurt Cobain would roll over in his grave if he heard this >:(

[rafaelray80]

The worst version that I watched.

[Shaitan051]

@rafaelray80

then you haven't seen Miley Cyrus singing it.

[rafaelray80]

@Shaitan051 I think so lol. Then I don't want do it cuz' I don't want die lol

[rick67]

Does this mean that he will start banging coke whores and shoot himself in the stomach?

[ThePopcornia]

OMG... This gave me a funny feeling... I love jazz and rock and Nirvana... Wow!!!

[NoSupermanFuck]

че за пздц...Кобейн ненавидел ету песню ето было видно по его лицу когда ее пел,а етот музыкант прям улыбаясь поет ее ппц

[vasiabratchuk]

@NoSupermanFuck покажи интервью, где Кобейн говорит что ненавидит SLTS :) когда музыканты не любят свои песни, они их просто не поют. сетлисты нирваны вплоть до последнего концерта говорят об обратном

[westernNL]

LOL

[MrZokul]

ma vaffanculo va

[sblunderaz]

great jaZZ VERSION

[MomoRochester]

Jak można zepsuć tak świetną piosenkę?

[MortyLivingston]

Is that trombone player on the end wearing a t-shirt?

[TheAntar75]

I really though that was a joke...



[VictorRechnageL]

mind=blown

[AlexanderJayxo]

hahaha 

[theatraljurnal]

Great instrumental work. This is far more better than shitty Cobain's guitar!!!!

[fede018]

@theatraljurnal shut up you deaf fag!

[TheFrankoJanko]

Paul Anka sings Nirvana... your argument is in-fucking-valid!!!!

[m260282]

oh nooo please !!

[MrPernell27]

the original version of this song is complete shit, and this is even worse. nirvana is one of the mot OVERATED bands ever!

[raulsag]

@MrPernell27 Well.. If you don't like it, it's your problem, I love Nirvana and I love Smells Like Teen Spirit. :D

[MrPernell27]

@raulsag actually it's not my problem. It's not evien a problem. I just seem to hate shitty music. Nirvana is about as talented as justne bieber.

[askdhuwuw]

@MrPernell27 nahhhh

[97ratedrsuperstar]

Oh What the Fuck...

[rajey99]

My mind is officially blown.

[Magmetal1]

@rajey99 just like cobains

[BobaFettTDG]

this is pretty amazing

[incircles]

2595 people aren't entertained.

[c00t999]

..someone email this dude the lyrics...ffs

[markusx2468]

@c00t999 it was all mumbled anyway

[glennsballs]

Ive liked this song for ages. This is the first time Ive understood the words. Mr Anka has balls to take it on, and fuck it up in such a way, that no matter how stoned you are its still smells of shite !

[echoplex89]

not bad

[sexypoetry]

remember the "MY WAY"? yes? they you know that this guy should write the songs for others to sing, not vice versa....i seek pole shift survival group

[Effewithbitches]

They fucked up the song.

[MusicIsCrucial1]

Get White dude. He did the cliche thing of just waiting longer to say things. He ruined it.

[AlexanderJayxo]

@MusicIsCrucial1 how is waiting longer to say things a cliche :S are you completely retarded LMFAO!!!!!!!!

[MusicIsCrucial1]

@AlexanderJayxo No I'm actually not retarded as a matter of fact all I'm saying is that all they do to put their own spin on things is change when words are said, therefore in some cases destroying the rhythmic structure of the song.

[MusicIsCrucial1]

@AlexanderJayxo and on that matter, the chords do not even resemble the original ones.

[AlexanderJayxo]

@MusicIsCrucial1 whatever, I don't really care... just listen to the song. I don't analyse everything like some wannabe music faggot

[MusicIsCrucial1]

@AlexanderJayxo Isn't the point of comments to analyse? If you didn't care you would ignore me.

[MusicIsCrucial1]

@AlexanderJayxo What is a music faggot are you telling me I don't like music, who doesn't like music?

[AlexanderJayxo]

@MusicIsCrucial1 ha, don't worry

[stationranger]

Deader than Kurt Cobain.

[Gattiniable]

LOL i love Paul Anka.

[iMagPul]

gotta admit its kinda catchy

[Saragepizza]

God I can't stand his bronze/rape face.

[atleastihavefish]

good song raped here...

[Hetubaabaa]

Love it.

[Squirrellygirly68]

ugh... I hate it.

[Delriversit]

I'm torn. I kinda' like it, and, at the same time, I'm not sure what just happened.

[pammypja]

I love it! It just goes to show how versatile the song is!

[TheClaireyboos]

Paul Anka Smells Like Teen Spirit hahaha thats the title

[hieppt]

"Smell like teen spirit" is a God's song, so every cover is acceptable !

[powderpink]

I like this better than the original!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[efams423]

@powderpink blasphemy

[Geforce2187]

yes nirvana

[paisapelaez]

what a shit!!!

[grumpyx55]

WTF this is bullshit

[Neph0423]

@grumpyx55 It's a fantastic unique rendition of an all-time classic. I was a Nirvana fan before some Nirvana fans were born. Paul Anka did a great job making this song his own.

[amnesiacradar]

@Neph0423 I totally agree with you, I went to see Nirvana at The Sheffield Octagon in 1991 and needless to say, they were amazing. I've seen/heard people say 'He'd be turning in his grave'. I think Kurt Cobain was open-minded enough to appreciate interpretations of his songs and with this song Paul Anka has created something special.

[TheCMKXer]

@amnesiacradar Cobain did not even write the lyrics to this song, and hated it, so he would not have given a flying fart if Paul Anka covered it.

[amnesiacradar]

@TheCMKXer Cobain did write this song, with his band mates. Check Wikipedia.

[Pumpkingilmour]

@amnesiacradar the official story is that Cobain wrote the lyrics, they don't want to change the official story because they are all making too much money on the 'Cobain is god' mythology. Cobain didn't write the lyrics, he and his band mates wrote the music for the lyrics. Cobain didn't tell anyone where the lyrics came from, and let everyone think he wrote them.

[amnesiacradar]

@Pumpkingilmour Thanks for the civil response, I rarely comment on Youtube as most people seem intent on being blunt and rude so it makes a change to actually hear a matter of fact reply, thanks.

[raulsag]

I'm a big fan of Nirvana... But this is great. :))

[MrRolliepolie]

no wonder kurt hates this song that made him famous lol

[tommydude2]

It's awsome!! When a great song is written, it can be used across genres. I think that is the test of any great songwriter. Cobain wrote a masterpiece that can be performed by someone from another generation and still sound amazing.

[reyrFuaP]

Whatever the arguments, it's just bloody awful. Like a bad turn on a cruise ship.

[Mickey2206]

@reyrFuaP I think that is the jest. I really do not think these old crooner guys take this serious. Actually there are a bunch of bands, young guys, that cover rock songs in this style. They think it is ironicly funny and it isn't. It is kind of getting stupid because it is like "it's been done".

[hacheish]

paul anka is a GOD!

[mmgaming01]

Cheer up, If you re still on this planet. If not send a regards to Mr. Cobain. Man it s just a music, do some good deeds for God sake. BTW Paul Anka at his best.

[jackzeeripper]

wow..uhmm...i dont know how to feel about this...its...unsettling ....there are many songs this man can sing don't get me wrong, but this...it makes me feel a little dead inside......i don't want to live on this planet anymore

[Renitamac]

Maybe if Kurt Cobain had this much of a sense of humour, he'd still be here.

[hootypatootie]

Oh Paul Anka, you so crazy

[ZeldaFoxEars]

@hootypatootie Ha ha ha....yes, yes he is my friend..

[OniLinkShadowLink]

ITS SUPOSED TO BE PISSED LIKE I AM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[immortalmileyfan]

Awesome.

[movieman7000]

paul anka you sucks so much ass it is not funny. how fucking dare you cover a great song like this. o my fucking gob damn im fo fucking bored. are you fucking kidding me. damn even diana sucks so much ass. o my fucking god. really. hell you know what paul i would rather fucking listen to the fucking lymon version of diana than this shit.

[Mezza87x]

@movieman7000 Well you're certainly a positive person... If you don't like it then don't listen to it, simple.

[hootypatootie]

@movieman7000 - If you listened to more Paul Anka, you wouldn't be like this. Chill out.

[cataoloquesea]

Perfecta adecuación

[SuperToaster1234]

I feel STOOPID!

[hakairyu1]

Unlike certain people here, my music taste isn't limited to 1 genre so I love both this and the original. Although I have to say, if Kurt Cobain heard this, he would have probably shot himself in the head. Oh wait...

[RebelThoughts]

Paul Anka is a badass who has covered both Nirvana and Soundgarden. Respect!

[ZeldaFoxEars]

I love Nirvana too, but this hilarious..sorry...I'm crapping myself over here. Okay its not that funny, but you get the picture.

[EdieFrances]

WHAT THE-

i can't

i just

no

NO.

[Sozlled]

I was sure it was Tony Bennet singing this.

[pokemantrader]

i cant beleive this youv made my life worth while

[8JobForAMexican8]

haha, woooah. so smooth!

[nickyfzr]

I love Nirvana but that was pretty cool. Swingin' man.

[andmaketherain]

Too bad Kurt wasn't there to do a duet.

At least Kris or Dave there would be cool.

Just sayin...

[redelpedron]

Problem Kurt Cobain?

[TrueKeyBladeGamer]

*FACEPALM*

[RSorbyGuitars]

check out my fingerstyle cover of this -

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

[orangejuice712]

wow this is kinda weird...

[cagedbutterfly93]

sounds like a whole different song

[iceinaglass123]

love this hhahaha.. it puts some class on smells liek teen spirit

[mattlove1]

"load up, load up?" Is that Canuck making a comment about American gun culture?

[AlexanderJayxo]

@mattlove1 a "canuck" runs your country dear

[sebbe91]

pretty nice cover actually

/ Swedish Nirvana fan

[canadababy17]

all you guys who are dissing paul anka are fucked. hes way bigger the nirvana would ever of been and or will. the rest of that group can go kill themselves like kurt did. hes one of the most sucessful artists there is. soooooooooooooooooo eat shit people who think he shouldnt have sang this.

[jellywillreturn]

@canadababy17

You are an idiot, much for the same reason as the Nirvana elitists, but for the opposite reason. Rather than hating him for covering it, you hate the people who wrote it in the first place, making you look just as stupid.

[pubicservice]

@canadababy17 Or you can acknowledge that not only are they two completely different genres, Paul Anka's been around way longer, both make really good music and hype should have nothing to do with it and just not care. Seriously, I see this fanboydom in Justin Beiber music videos and the raging battle between Call of Duty and Battlefield, and I'm sick to shits of hearing it about Nirvana.

[SirWolfgaar]

What's that crap he has sprayed all over his skin?

This isn't bad so much as it is completely irrelevent, eggregious, and utterly unnecessary. It is totally lacking in anything even resembling a contribution to music in general or this song specifically. If I farted the tune to song, I couldn't do it less justice.

[SirWolfgaar]

What's that crap he has sprayed all over his skin?

[Snekllt]

@guywithguitars1 hahaha chill

[GuyWithGuitars1]

This is just absolutely, fucking 1000% WRONG. Just fucking WRONG. There should be LAWS, FELONY LAWS against this.

[Renitamac]

@GuyWithGuitars1 LOL dude, it's not that serious. This is fun!

[030terror]

Hmmm... Entire room full with lazy rich people.... a gay dude who tries to act straight... doeing a FUCKING Grunge/Rock song.... something is wrong with this world...

[the150rider02]

@030terror you gotta problem with paul anka

[jellywillreturn]

This is one of the funniest things I've seen in a while.

[worstcaseclips]

He knows the dirty words....

[Bazooka043]

his libido.

[jellywillreturn]

I can't stop laughing.

[tonio2bastia]

Poor Kurt Cobain...

[cristinawilligs]

love it is what an artist should do with the song from another artist make it his,

[Dogslow]

Class



[SarahLou]

ahahahahahaha bullshit

[barkinholwer]

some of those lyrics were incorrect...

[DanandDuffStartaBand]

We recently covered "On A Plain" in honor of the 20th anniversary of Nevermind. Have a listen and let us know what you think (it's titled "Chariots On A Plain Of Fire"). If you like, check out our other videos and enter our contest. Thanks!

-Oddments

[Tazz666316]

i feel stooopid xD

[SKarmazenuk]

I don't want to live on this planet anymore. Even Ke$ha couldn't make a more banal cover. If there is a Hell and Kurt Cobain went there for committing suicide, it is this song he is forced to listen to over and over again, until the end of Time.

[juvotp]

@SKarmazenuk hey hey hey heyy... this is actually good cover, diffrent but good.

[Gilch30]

The people that disliked this are fucking moronic idiotic douchebag that do not understand that great music can come in any form and fashion, whether loud or smooth. Kurt Cobain will haunt your lives forever for disliking this. And you call yourselves true Nirvana fans?

[albertoaranda]

@Gilch30 no.. you're wrong

[Gilch30]

@albertoaranda Wow, so you have talked to Cobain's spirit and gotten his opinion on this? I know for a fact that Grohl has come out supporting this rendition in an interview. He's a big fan.

[albertoaranda]

@Gilch30 No... you're wrong

[muser1000]

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheMrFlapy]

hahahaha

[RCThales]

WTF ?? disgusting

[chirix88]

a mulato, an albino, a..paul anka, a patti smith, my libido!

[orajeladdict]

My unwarranted opinion is that Kurt would love this song. Lol

[rudeger66]

What's that whirling sound? Oh, yeah...it's Kurt Cobain spinning in his grave!

[AWarWithoutEnd]

Why Pat?

Why?

[maria31808]

Paul Anka IS THE BEST! ;) <3 LIKE LIKE NO DISLIKE! HA!

[FELLKYRINLA]

He made the song look like what the fuck? What the fuck is this?

[TheAlexus93]

WTF :D

[auroralight40]

some people never grow up, guess happy to be in the same path in life. i,m one of those i will stay with the PAUL ANKA OF THE 50,S. LIKE DIANA,PUT YOUR HEAD ON MY SHOULDERS,AND THEY CALL IT PUPPY LOVE. aurora

[RVD909]

Anka is amazing at doing this with songs !

[hoihoi1555]

lol wtf

[babystinky]

what a lot of people are not 'getting' is how difficult it is to do what anka did. he took a different style, and turned it into a version that fits his style, and he did it with it sounding authentic.

[Chikatees]

this is class!!!

[brennanmoriarty]

do it babey

[spartafxrs5]

is there a COB version of this song??? :P

[RockMyS0ul93]

This is actually funny. LOL

[b1pdty84]

I appreciate some songs by Paul Anka and Tom Jones but they just seem like old douche bags trying to stay relevant when they do these ridiculous covers. I would also think Nirvana were douche bags if they had tried to do a cover of Diana or It's Not Unusual. Stick to your own genre you ego maniacal money whores.

[malicefan]

wow what a great job Paul now that what i call music

[chaiTV]

shows how poetic the lyrics are. This guy is loving singing those words, you can see it, the words have a unique atmosphere.

[TheCMKXer]

@chaiTV Cobain did not even write the lyrics to this song, and hated it with a passion. Most fans have no idea what the words even mean.

[BackstreetRecords1]

@TheCMKXer i do :-)

[OzKnosis]

@BackstreetRecords1 so what do the lyrics to this song mean?

[OzKnosis]

@BackstreetRecords1 you said you know what the lyrics to this song mean. So, what do they mean? Please answer the question.

[chaiTV]

@TheCMKXer smells like a stupid youtube comment. Do your research.

[icabodcranium]

WOW! I can finally make out the words.

[TheQueenOfMice]

om.... i dont like that :( 

[TheJazz2002]

why so much dislike for this? It is a brilliant version of a popular tune, remade into something much more stylistic and amazing than grunge

as far as rearranging music goes, this is pure talent. Imagine a dubstep remix of it, THAT would give grounds of complaint

[power2go3]

I don't get it...you hate it just because it's not with stoned guys playing the instruments?

[TerranMeUp]

This.

[RonTattoo]

Me Gusta!

[lostinhollywood]

this.

[VvvVmeadowVvvV]

The lights out with Anka is dangerous

[mustang6172]

Rape!  Rape!

[Jinxerz010792]

Best version of this song ever made.

[LordLion97]

ma questo è uno stupro per l'anima di Cobain......

[vergenceranges]

possibly the worst cover ever recorded.

[atlantargh]

OMG - is this some sort of a joke??

[zlllnvkz]

отлично!
