2:25 wtf he's playing wrong chord, if he play it in D, then the part "i like it i'm not gonna crack" must be played in chord : G - A#, not A - C... well get back to an actor dude, your'e place not here
No, he doesn't sound like Kurt, and no one ever will- he may not be the worlds most talented singer but that doesn't matter because the worlds most talented singer wouldn't be able to measure up to Kurt anyways. He had a unique voice and sound that was distinguishable. This cover wasn't bad at all, props for his enthusiasm and effort.
To all the people having a go at this. How about you stand up and Do Your version of this song. He is someone that is going out there to make a change and be happy with his life..I wouldn't care if his a world famous actor or someone on the street,
I'm only 1/2 way through and I think that's all I'm gonna last. The entire song has been sang sharp and I wish I were deaf. Kurt canNOT be resting peacefully.....
DEAR ALL ROCK AND NIRVANA FANS, FEBRUARY 20TH IS KURT COBAIN'S BIRTHDAY. THAT DAY WE WILL ALL VISIT THE "SMELLS LIKE TEEN SPIRIT" VIDEO, LIKE IT, AND WISH HIM A HAPPY BIRTHDAY. NOT ONLY WILL IT PAY BACK RESPECT TO HIM, IT WILL ALSO HELP NIRVANA GET TO THE TOP OF YOUTUBE AGAIN. THUMBS UP THIS COMMENT AND REPOST THIS ON ANY NIRVANA OR ANY ROCK VIDEO
This is the only song I've heard him sing, but I'm really not digging it. I like his attitude and personality, and he's a great actor, but I don't care for his vocals. Still, I will agree that he's got talent.
i think this song cannot be performed "better" than the way it was by mr. cobain ... but i enjoyed this version (posted by a straight male). thanks for upload and happy armageddon ;)
this is the worst fucking cover of this song that i've ever heard. and not just because of the mid-tune monologue, an apostrophe to the late kurt cobain, somehow qualifying JGL's performance of the song in the face of the author's suicide.
no, what really ruined it for me was the vibrato. reel that shit in, man.
@comingupryan, TOO FUCKING FUNNY. You pontificating about someone else pontificating! The finger you point always ends up pointing back at you, bro. SHIT! CRAP. The finger just pointed at me.
well, obviously there are a lot of people on here who agree with you. but they're all wrong. he doesn't play well, at all. if you like this music, do yourself a favor and go down to the nearest bar with anyone playing live music, anyone, you will fucking love it. it'll be the greatest thing you've ever heard, because i guarantee they will sound 1000 times better than this. but, i'm assuming you're confusing "listening to music" with "i want to fuck that guy playing music" anyway.
@imsleepyish Yeah but the point is he's an epic actor in addition to having musical talents. Plus, probably more importantly to explain why people like this video, he's extremely attractive lol.
@BruteDux i see where you're coming from but it isn't a J-GL concert, it's a concert run by his company hitrecord, which showcases artists of every kind when usually their work would never see the light of day. his website is run on the basis of contributions, where if you upload a video say, other people are able to take it away and remix it. the audience come on stage and show their talents and it is only recorded so it can be remixed. J-GL is only a host
Honestly i dont think he gives a shit about what you all think. He didnt post this and it sounds like the audience is having a good time. So.. relax and breath through you nose a little
Man some people write some dumb shit on here. Awesome clip. Someone on here wrote "just because he can sing doesn't mean he can sing"...are you that fucking stupid???
You guys go to his concert because he is Gordon-Levitt. All over the world there are kids in bars playing that song the same way he is playing right there. Nothing against him, but if to go to a concert of his, at least some good, remarkable compositions of his. At LEAST a different interpretation.
@szczala17 Personally I like JGL because he doesn't try to be perfect and does only what he enjoys because he enjoys it.
Also, JGL is a singer; this is a YT video of him singing. You don't have to make a living from singing to be a singer.
Finally, I don't think insulting all "people" who like his singing is necessary. Everyone is entitled to their opinions without the threat of being insulted for them.
really cool how an actor with such success still reaches out and connects on a personal level with his fans without that aura of celebrity exclusiveness
ahhh hes soo awesome :)
