Good reply, better than I could do! Really, I don't know why anyone would want a cover that is a copy of the original. But maybe that's why someone would be a Marty fan lol.
@MusicFanToo [inserts tongue in cheek] I guess that's why INXS eventually picked JD on the show because they wanted someone original rather than a copy of Michael Hutchence lol
I doesn't need to sound like Nirvana. And in all honesty, I don't think anyone can anyway. Kurt Cobain may not have had a whole lot of talent as a singer but he had a very distinct sound that completely suited the mood of the music.
Idol started long before this and it still took their contestants a couple more years to figure out that you can really show your musical chops by finding a unique arrangement to reflect how well your voice works instead of just karaoke-ing it.
I love this for so many reasons. This is my favorite Nirvana song, brings out my love for that band. I also think this is when Fortune really showed his chops and in turn brought the competition to a whole new level. He turned the heat up so high only a few could stand the fire. The rest were burned away. And aside from the obvious fact( yeah I'm about to go there lol) that he's not hard on the eyes, his voice is one of the best in the biz. Who wasn't mesmerized by it for 3/4 of the song???
The stagename for J.D. Fortune came from J.D. Salinger and the stagename Flame Fortune for the wannabe singer Michael Hutchence was trying to promote in the '80s. I named the band Paramore for the Paramour Mansion recording studios after I wrote Decode and hearing the Farris Bros of INXS talking about holding the RockStar show there when Hutch decided to bail on the band. I came up with the stagename P!nk for Bob Geldof in The Wall. I knew them & Hutch & Geldof were friends.
@Tamsrosch This Jd Fortune, leadsinger of INXS now, he is on tour again with them, now in Australia, and then they are going to Southamerica , Canada and more...
Check out JD Fortune's website (jdfortune448) where you can buy his first single ONE MORE DAY which is being featured on the promo's for CBS's Miami Medical
At this point the only person who could even come close was marty. JD Fortune had the crowd and INXS in his hand especially after he came out with pretty vegas.
That's exactly why! Plus they wanted someone who could actually sing without screaming (tongue firmly in cheek) ;^)

This is when in my mind he separated away from everyone else on the show for good. This was it!
