oh, absolutely. I was referring to the first time I heard them over a decade ago. they've grown on me a lot since. I'm a child of the 70's and 80's...just took me a bit to warm up to that particular style.
man. I remember hearing Slipknot years ago and thinking "wtf is this bullshit? and who the shit would ever sing (cookie-monster vocals, as my friend likes to put it) like this?". but man, after checking Corey out in other musical contexts such as this, I'm convinced that he's one of the most talented and versatile vocalists in a generation. he sounds SO fucking good on this; and covering Kurt is treading on precarious turf. he's also the only guy I've heard that didn't just piss me off whil
@MatthewLawyer95 what has that to do with this cover? Corey showed some respect to Kurt by doing this cover... And musicians don't have to show respect to anyone to be good.
Cool mix of brilliant musicians like corey taylor, travis barker and dave navarro playing one of the best songs in the world from one of the best bands ever!
I think that Corey is redefining himself as a musician. Maybe if he leaves Slipknot, it could be a real good thing for himself. He's really expanding his horizons.
Wow... this is pretty much the best vocal cover I've ever heard of any Nirvana song ever. And it's Corey Taylor from Slipknot! I need to be more openminded in future. :P
y wasnt dave and krist invited to this shit, dave plays was way better than who ever is on the kit back there and krist is just a baddass hes like 7 foot plus it would just be classic to have the old memebers play with someone like corey he to his as fucking hella badass! but yea that mayjor bullshit right there!
WOW awseome!!!!!!!! this is one of my favourite song ever!!! Corey sings Cobain s song , thanks Corey for your work and especielly for keeping alive Kurts memory.
Best lithium cover I've ever heard, not only because of the extraordinary vocals but because of the great job Barker did to imitate Grohl's intense and epic drumming!
God Corey I love u so much right now but ive always loved Kurt more then cake... Leave Kurts songs to Kurt.... Its all he ever had worth having.... Xx
he has such a huge neck because he's been headbanging like a maniac for over a decade now. Seriously, try headbanging for an entire metal concert, and see if your neck muscles don't hurt like hell the next morning. Dude's been building muscle that way.
I don't care what anyone says. I swear I felt Kurt's spirit so strong in this performance. their voices are actually REALLY similar. Kurt's is more sedate (fitting for the title 'Lithium') and cracky, but Corey's interpretation was so spot on for me. hearing all those people sing their hearts out: 'yeaaayeeah!' makes me miss him so much.
@GrungeStratocaster26 I do like Kurts Cracky voice for his songs too another reason why i like nirvans a little better this song deserves a thumbs up tho
all of us metalheads and rockstars are so much better looking than everyone else i just noticed that even if one of them is ugly something about is attractive lol
Sorry people but I don't really think Corey can put this of. He doesn't have the right attitude, the right feeling for this. He seriously failed here.
