  • #17foofan: well put

  • @smithforthphd None of them look like girls, you the fag for thinking they do. 

  • 9 ppl knew they were wrong

  • @smithforthphd Do you have any backbone or show any fucking respect at all?

  • i thought it was pretty good

  • My god this is AWFUL.

  • @Valaument you sir do have no idea

  • shit, both seether and breaking benjamin do a good job of covering this song. quit bitchin and appreciate the fact that bands today are still trying to keep good music alive by playing covers of bands such as nirvana.

  • @smithforthphd ur a fag

  • FUCKING love this song and love both bands. Ben did a fantastic job

  • Nirvana's is much better.

  • Best cover for this song I've heard. Seether didn't even get the music right. Yeah maybe the vocals sound closer to Kurt's in the cover Seether did, but Ben Burnley is actually on key more and do is his band's music. Breaking Benjamin will always be the best alternative/metal post grunge band out there.

  • seether and breaking benjamin need to quick covering others songs

  • @cotton691 Before they actually became Seether they were a full time cover band.

  • Wow, some people are not too bright, huh? Of course Nirvana is better, it's the most popular version. Ben isn't trying to sound like Kurt, because then it's just karaoke...it's a cover, not a SONGTHATSOUNDSJUSTLIKETHEORGIN­AL

  • this is actually pretty damn good haha until after the first chorus haha

  • is that dr evil?

  • Who cares if it doesn't sound like it Kurt? It's a cover for a reason, they did a good job. Like other people have said, they don't do it to sound like them, they do it out of respect for the band.

  • Every cover I see from a band, there is always atleast one person saying, "This sucks, it sounds nothing the like the original!!" Why do think they call it a cover? Because they are performing a song that they like and admire and putting their own sound to it!!

  • Trashing Ben because he dose'nt sound like Kurt is COMPLETELY ridiculous. Bands don't cover songs to sound like the Original band, they do it out of respect. And honestly if All covers sound the same whats the point of even doing a Cover? A Good artist Knows how to put there own spin on a song and make it there own.

  • Nirvana its evar better ;-)

  • I LOVE breaking Benjamin Huge fan but this is horrible nothing like nirvana

  • This is better than Limp Bizkit's but not Seether's

  • sounds a lot like kurt :O

  • Honestly, if i wanted to listen to someone covering Nirvana with Kurt's voice, i would listen to the original. When someone covers a Nirvana song, or any song, they should try to be original, not an imitation of the original artist

  • And if any of you posers know anything about the band you would know that Ben holds only the utmost respect for the late great GOD, Kurt Cobain... Kurt and Nirvana are one of the biggest influences for his music... At either the Staircase or at a local bazaar in Bloomsburg, PA he had said that he covers Nirvana as his tribute to them... There is absolutely no disrespect in any of his Nirvana covers... A true Breaking Ben fan would know what t-shirt Ben frequently wears and what tatoo he has...

  • If you were actually there to see this performance at the Staircase that night the sound quality of this upload isn't anything compared to the actually hearing this performance done live... I KNOW I WAS THERE!!!! Ben does an absolute phenomenal job of this cover... Honestly, this is the best Nirvana cover I have heard!!! Instrumentally, the music is spot on and Vocally, I think he does a fucking amazing job!!! Now read my next post...

  • @dislocatetion

    I'm just expressing an opinion, no need for the language. Just saying

  • I wish that instead of producing something that reminds us of the greatest and most passionate musician ever, someone would just BECOME the 2nd greatest and most passionate musician ever.

  • this is pretty good, sounds like Kurt!

  • Amazing it sounds incredibly like You Know You're Right. Bad quality though.

  • Everyone just shut the fuck up, the point of a cover is not to sound just like the original band but rather to twist it around and play it in your own style. Seether's way of playing plus Shaun's closer-to-Kurt voice just make it seem like it's "better" but Ben sings fairly well for this cover as well. In turn it's all opinion, but the bands are both in "post-grunge" and good friends so beating on one of them is kind of pointless.

  • not bad :)

  • so i just put the code in my dads gun safe, loaded his semi-automatic assault rifle and im shooting my self now. breaking benjamin can suck on my corpse dick.

  • @thebard2112 Oh noez! Someone covered nirvana! I shud kill myself becuase it wasn't 100 percent accurate!

  • cool

  • Good cover but Seethers version is better.

  • @seetherfreak218 i think you mean "nirvana's version is better"

  • Thank you!!

  • kurt cobain born again...

  • Wish there was a vid to this!

  • Yeah but Seether are faggots. BB is legit.

  • @Grakbonedust dude bb fuckin sucks seether sold more albums and u cant compare seether to bb they suck ass fucking seether all the fucking way bb sounds like three days grace

  • @john38127 seether has also been around and mainstream for far longer than BB is. if you hate so much on them, why are you trolling on one of their videos. go love up on seether.

  • @john38127

    Fag.

  • @john38127 uh no they dont? hahahahaa

  • Eh, he's done a few pretty passable covers, but you can tell he's trying too hard with this one.

  • I acctualy like this cover, he sings it the way Kurt used to. Love the drums in this one!

  • @Anonix123 Ben learned how to play guitar by listening to Nevermind over and over again. He always did Nirvana covers ever since they were a three piece. I've seen them many times. I lived near where they started in Wilkes-Barre PA, this was recorded at the Staircase in Pittston,PA :)

  • he sounds really close to kurt...but thats not the point. he has to make it his own version and its gonna be great.

  • this is surprisingly very good... bravo...

  • NIRVANA IS GOD

  • @xtremewayne god is god , nirvana r just awesome :D

  • who is nirvana?

  • @bishop199115 r u from earth???

  • @bishop199115 only the best band to ever walk the earth

  • @bishop199115 A band, what else?

  • ok to clear up the comments on Ben sounding or not sounding like Kurt there are major differences between the 2 one of those being that Ben is canadian and Kurt was from Washington much like the singer from Seether is from South Africa and not from the states....of course Nirvana is better it's there song but at least they did it justice in some way and Ben has said he was a child of Nirvana and was heavily influenced by them.

  • @artisticmystery13 Where the hell did you get ben is from Canada? He's from Wilkes-Barre Pennsylvania like 3 miles from my house. I'm pretty sure I can go teabag his car if I wanted to. Lol

  • The drums are really good in this one... :)

  • I like Nirvana's better of cource, but this was a amzing cover....i thought it was kurt singing for a sec.

  • Great cover by breaking benjamin. I'm a 38 year old die hard Nirvana fan since the early days and this is a very good cover no doubt. No reason to lie and say it isn't. Kurt influenced many of todays grunge/alternative musicians and we can all thank him and appreciate that. We will always miss Kurt but he was a very unhappy soul due to Courtney... who he really wanted away from so he could gather himself and step down from music. But he never got that chance. She killed him either way..

  • even though Breaking Benjamin is pretty stupid, i kinda like this

  • As Nirvana covers go, this is a good one, especially the singer, he has a good voice similar to Kurt's.

  • This is a shit cover :S

    [no offense]

    Nirvana was the best. Nobody can pull them off. And Kurt was a God x)

  • wow... the sound of the crowd in the chorus was breathtaking :O

    almost made me cry lol

  • I love how people say "it's ok, but it's not Kurt Cobain." Well that's because it ISN'T Kurt Cobain. That's why they call it a cover. Sometimes people make a big deal over stupid.

  • This is an ok, but their All Apologies and Who Wants to Live Forever are definitely their best covers. BB is awesome.....

  • i dont like them, but i respect them after listening to this

  • nirvanas better well duh its there song

  • emmm... what happen with the distortion?? -.- WHAT HAPPEN WITH THE SAINT GRUNGE DISTORTION?? in our time ... increasingly occupies less distortion... u.u

  • bad sound quality im sure if it was better quality it would sound much better =)

  • great cover, and i dont even like this band

  • Nirvana is better :/

  • @H6un Obviously, but this is still an amazing cover.

  • @H6un NIRVANA WILL ALWAYS B BETTER :)

  • @H6un No shit, it's their song

  • @H6un Well obviously.

  • @H6un Of course

  • stop covers of nirvana :@

  • OMG it;s Peter Parker

  • i saw taproot in pittston with chevelle,would of been great to see this live!

  • in The "Pain!" part he looks like kurt...

  • this is breaking benjamin you know you're right cover?

  • yES

  • This is ok and he sometimes comes close to kurts voice but i must say that seethers covers are closer to nirvana plz don't hate me people :p

  • i dont hate you =-P

  • You suck , I hate you And every one should!They have to , we need no reason...

    xD Agreed that seether goes closer

  • @1krasio1 A cover is someone's version of another band's song, that means it doesn't matter who goes "closer", the more different the better

  • I know...That's why I was hating everyone etc...I like this cover im just saying seether goes closer to the original , im not saying that they are better covering it !

  • @kefflan No one will hate you for this comment dude, cause... you know your right!!! Seether fuckin ROCK!!

  • @kefflan you know you're right dude i thnik seethers cover is beter

  • @kefflan I just heard a seether cover and they butchered the guitar, no offense but BB is better at nirvana.

  • @kefflan I HATE U OMFG I HOPE U DIE AGHGHGHG NERD RAGE!!!! lol jk :) i agree with u

  • @kefflan URGHGHG I HATE U lol jk

  • @kefflan Seether does an amazing job with this song!

  • @kefflan Yeah but despite what people say there's still a HUGE diffrence between shaun's voice and kurt's

  • wow this good

    my fav band playing my fav nirvana song

  • same here

  • i actually like this one better than the seether cover

  • omg fuckin amazing

  • This is without a doubt Breaking Benjamin, and it is FABULOUS! Really wish I could go back in time and re-live the 93 concert in Mpls. RIP Kurt.

  • Kurt plays this so much better, good cover though enjoyed it alot >:P

  • dude ths is live kurt has a studio thats it so of course it sounds better

  • Comment removed

  • he played it live once, and he recorded it so he obviously played it.

  • doesnt mean that he couldn't of recorded it

  • lol u ar one dumb retard haha

  • I said that in reply to someone who said they preferred Kurts live version better. As the song wasnt released until 2002, and I didnt know it had been performed live, I asked how Kurts live version could be better. Obviously it had been recorded. Learn to read beyond the first few pages of comments.

  • It's been played in 1993 in Chicago. There is a vid on youtube in which they play it.

  • Yes, and the song released in 02 is a demo, that, originally, was aimed to be a future single. Which is the reason they played it before Kurt's death (hur hurr, try explaining it after, smart ass(I'm talking to myself here))

  • @clownsatemybaby HE STILL PLAYS IT ON THE RECORD THOUGH- HE OBV RECORDED IT BEFORE HE DIED DUMBASS

  • You're clearly a very intelligent person, what with your caps locks and clever interpreting skills, but before you go all gung-ho American and embarass yourself next time, have a wee read first, find out what's what. Then you won't make rash deductions about things you don't understand. It's clearly very obious Kurt recorded it in studio (well done on working that out by yourself) as it appears on an album. What was not clear was that he had performed it live in concert before he died.

  • YEAH, but you were completly ruling out that he could have possible played it live just because you hadn't heard it live before- OPEN YOUR MIND

  • they did, in the aragon ballroom 10/xx/93 its on youtube

  • @P3sticide 10/23/93

    My 1st birthday

  • actually yes, they did played it on aragon ballroom, chicago illinois, what wasn´t clear was if the song was labelled as all apologies, autopilot or on a mountain, they recorded it on studio on march 94,in lang sessions :)

  • I think I'm dumb!

  • @clownsatemybaby

    fucking idiot.

  • Learn to read dickhead.

  • this is deffinetly breaking benjamin

    not kurt

    kurt has a better voice ;]

  • of course he did. thank you captain obvious. sit down and enjoy the cover.

  • I actually didnt think this was going to be good but its pretty good,

  • sorry but thats benjamin burley of breaking benjamin

  • what?

  • FINALLY!!!

    Some appreciation for one of Breaking Benjamins covers. This is my favourite of them all. Ben does a good Kurt impression.

  • AWESOME!!! TOTALLY AWESOME COVER!

  • Awesome cover!

  • Love it! amazing.

  • amazing amazing

  • Great cover,, Ben handles the Cobain screech really well. BB is what got me into rock, but Nirvana is what made me love it.

  • same here. blow me away was the first rock song i loved. :) BB did a good job on this one ^^

  • Breaking benjamin is better than panic at the disco.

  • Breaking Benjamin are better than most bands in this generation of Rock...

    BB > MCR

    BB > FOB

    BB > PATD

    BB > 30STM

    In my opinion, Of course...

  • Yeah, I agree. I believe that MCR, FOB, P!ATD, and 30STM don't even compare to Breaking Benjamin.

    BTW!...Awesome song. Ben did a good job especially...

  • yes, and those first 3 bands shouldn't even be in the same sentence as 30 Seconds or Breaking Benjamin...

  • Comment removed

  • what about BDRL, VCRTV, KFCWW2, SSTCRT, 3RFW, QZYA, JJKS, BBNLLS, and WWILB? you can't forget about those.

  • Never heard of em....

    (Sarcasm Alert)

  • are those radio stations or something

  • holy chit mang. right on.

  • lol,Nirvana is the base of rock music

  • Kurt would have been so proud! Thanks wolvemeister, well done Breaking Benjamin!

  • did Ben ever comment on Jeremy Hummel?

  • fucking rocked it

  • SPIDERMAN at 10 o'clock

  • hahaha right!

  • Personally I think bands that do covers who stick to the original is a good thing. You know all the original bands spend a long time figuring out how to make the song the best it could be. Covering it and changing shit up ends up ruining the song in most cases.

    Sure there's a few exceptions, but there's no reason to bash bands sticking to the way the song was meant to be played. If it aint' broke, don't fix it!

  • Not a fan of Breaking Benjamin, but they did this justice.

  • Wow, I'm impressed. They really got it down.

  • This is fucking amazing cover!

  • dang...im impressed..at first i thought it was nirvana

  • same here

  • on the picture, the singer looks like peter parker/spider man(without mask)!

  • holy hell this is really good.
