Of course she can't scream and sing this like Kurt, because she's a woman. But she did a good job. Of course this isn't better than the original, but it's not bad.
When most artists try to cover a Nirvana song they either try to sound exactly like Kurt which annoys me to no end. Amy on the other hand did an amazing cover of Heart Shaped Box, I prefer Kurt ofc, but Amy's version is much clearer and her voice is beautiful when she cries out in any of her songs i.e. 'Going Under live acoustic'.
AMAZING, how many people dont get it,duh, she not a dude with a scratchy vioce strung out on heroine, and duh, its acoustic not grunge..but its ok..if any of you millionaire recording artist actually had a vioce or a real band,,i would make sure to tell you, you sucked 2 for doing a cover song in youre own vioce, or trying to sound like someone youre not..if you wanna hear Kurt sing it again click it, over on the right..he's not on tour, but happy sum1 is still doing his work and keeping it real
You shouldn't criticize Amy because she sang this to show her admiration to Nirvana. She's a fan and BOTH bands are great. She wouldn't sound nice if she screamed like Kurt. Kurt is a guy and screaming fits better to him.
Look, I'm not taking anything away from Nirvana, because there's no denying they were great. But Amy Lee does have a way better voice than Kurt Cobain. You've got to give her some credit, because when she did this song, you knew people were going to rip into her not being Nirvana in the first place.
i like this but the two versions are uncomparable because they're almost two different songs. nirvana was def the grunge version this version has the soft ballad kind of sound. you can't really say one's better than the other
Amy Lee has one of the most amazing voices out there and has really set the mark for others to follow, I am a huge fan of her music and of Evanescence, but I must say, Nobody does this song like Kurt... rip
Meh, leave him be. While I personally think this is better than the original [you heard me] it's his own opinion...a rather narrow-minded opinion. He'll never know how awesome Ev truly is until he expands his horizons.
okay, Alilina, yes Nirvana is rad... but you didn't even spell it right and umm... amy is seriously the best singer in the fucking universe. she's the raddest person EVER! you're shit. you shitfuck
Great job. It does exactly what a cover is supposed to do: Sound different.

i liked the way she sang the heart shaped box.. she gives a melancolic tone to the song and make it almost mysterious...
