The Man Who Sold The World - Nirvana and David Bowie performing together

[SaintJaded]

You need to make a Music video for the David Bowie song.

Itd. Be. Epic.

[lindeene]

Wonderful! Thank you!

[Dynam1xxx]

I didn't remember MTV used to be good

[1992corleonesicilia]

More Cobain.

[AuntieN2]

So Cool! That's what timing is all about!

[TheWhateverwhoever]

Some untalented ma...fuc...wanna push those artistic souls down...!Fuc.. them!!!

[kurtcobain1grunge]

kurt = legend

[Rikipic]

@kurtcobain1grunge

david = living legend #fail

[LolaLavonda]

good video, but change the title.

[20cFilmWannabe]

fuck off nirvana you're ridiculously overrated.

[maxshow27]

@20cFilmWannabe hhahaha,, nirvana nirvana nirvana!!!!

[20cFilmWannabe]

@maxshow27 *middle finger*

[justinmdominiak]

lol. Those songs were in two entirely different keys.

[Csensis]

love the song, but your editing sucks great big elephant balls.

[GFisher111]

Nice idea if you like car crashes. Get a mixer that can bring them both together on beat and key.

[theshawnmccoy]

Would be better as a traditional mash-up. Can tell a lot of effort went into it, but they don't blend at all. Good try, good result for what you were going for, but completely unappealing.

[Blakeislegend]

Really? Fuck you

[Purkku69]

david bovie version is shit

[NoblyRotten]

@Purkku69 Your spelling is shit.

[Andiya2]

loving both)

[universalsingularity]

:D Klaus Nomi @ the beginning fuck yeah!

[Destructionboy23]

Kurt's version is better. Hands down.

[woodsy1808]

shit

[summonmancer]

man yo cool !

[0oRaMoNo0]

Acabas de destruir una hermosa canción

[DenisJUMONT]

And so, I quote " he said I was his friend "

but nevertheless " I never lost control "

[gavroash]

I love the "besides the fact that they're in different notes" comments....they're different notes....what is there besides that? lol. This is shit!

[migueltorres10h]

THIS IS SHIT!

[Rosie69ism]

apart from the fct they sing on a different key is not bad..

[78Sla]

А кто-то скрывал, что Курт играл каверы???



[MissingINo]

They're both in different tunings altogether, I think.

[paulbrink6]

its whack but at the same time its different really strange give hugo a break at least he tried to do something never been done..its only a video chill

[ronnogold]

Poor Kurt looks so miserable and out of it.

[katt100ka]

if Bowie would finish like Curt, then... You know what i mean?

[dagobertje]

terrible

[rrreckless]

This is truly terrible, doesn't do justice to either artist and both versions of Bowies song are brilliant, when played on their own! Good collection of Bowie footage.

[mar37able]

what is this shit !!!!

[auto4union]

What fucking numpty came up with this SHITE ! Wasting ma fuckin` time asshole !!

[L0vebuzZ13]

Screw every one, I like it! It's catchy and funny! =)

[TheOpuzenac]

Nirvana X 1000 = David Bowie

[xJTxRipperx]

This is terrible. =/

[AnnieLeeKennan]

this is actually stupid but cooll

[QAHN1]

this sux

[GiveMeMyWhammy]

whoever made this is retarded

[darkdota]

fake and gay

[ricardosasuke]

@darkdota

R u a Fucking Retarded?

[lala5732]

Without Bowie this song wouldn't exist..you morons!! Thanks David for a great song.

[gheffty93]

whoever made this video clearly does not understand music. they are in DIFFERENT keys you moron. That is why it sounds like crap when you put them together.

[t0ny0ngBayawak]

thank God Nirvana covered this song. No disrespect but I really can't stand Bowie's voice. It is weird, creepy and he sounds like he has a gadget in his throat to make him speak because his throat was already terminated by cancer. NIRVANA rocks!

[ThePunkjeff]

this makes my head fuckin hurt

[zshot2188]

gay

[xanadu1987]

bel montaggio complimenti

[unitom13]

checkout my cover of Man Who sold the world!!!

watch?v=TZUVZLhhXrE

[Kallicles]

fuck this!

[GregPellerin]

Not that I am condoning the competition here, but please...Bowie wins.

[fiiiiiiillliiiipa]

i like david bowie but not in duet with kurt cobain sounds diferent sounds bad i like solo david bowie and with mick jagger it sounds better this style is not good for david bowie sing

[fiiiiiiillliiiipa]

nice but i prefere only kurt sing is this the new kurt or the one that died in1994 lol

[greadion4]

nice editing!

[forgiventimes]

328 people sold the world

[spectrumalaska]

This is pathetic....

[FarmGiraffe]

wouldn't it have been cool if Bowie and Cobain really DID perform together :D

[markx64]

This both sucks and blows

[frank02111]

If they want to have them perform together then they should use the same computer apparatus like Natalie Cole did when she sang the duet with her father Nat in the great performance of Unforgettable!

[joebstarsurfer]

Do you have a check shirt and an IPOd and no understanding of music or culture CUNT!.

[Sabic18]

95% of teens these days listen to the same crappy pop over and over again. If you're one of the 5% who still listens to real music, thumb this up, then copy & paste it to at least five videos. Don't let die the spirit of rock

[NoelleNabob]

This is David Bowie on stage and Nirvana on stage. But not together.

[batbreath77]

video S U C K S and is so disrespectful to both! !!

[306ness]

this video sucks. why would you lie to me.

[BeTheDeathOfMe]

you have to raise the nirvana one a semi-tone for it to work. They played a half step down for unplugged.

[wotererio]

This sucks monkeyballs.

[bru3d3rl3]

wat did i just watch?

[harshman121092]

i like david bowie, but this song doesn't appeal to me except for when nirvana plays it.

[eobo1]

awesome job Hugo1138 thanx for the vid :D

[Calminmind]

FAIL The worst iv evr herd- 

[goopee76]

this does'nt work, the sounds dont match

[profugosradio]

La cagaron...

[guiguihandy]

ces con

[Dezedaantje]

please do not prosecute me lol. I kinda like the Idea but the voices just don't match. The guitars do. :) verry creative anyway

[Elliott871]

I guss you know witch one sounds better david bowie sucks

[TheAmosAnon]

an obvious idea that doesn't work

[Kazdal567]

Before MTV Showed Rap-Crap

[haircut74]

this is ridiculous.

[jujo63]

SCREW YOU THIS SUCKS> NIRVANA IS THE BEST

[LUCAX333]

you must use a pitch because the song was played in 2 tones diferents. Nirvana play in Fb but David Bowie in F

[Mocifer666]

@LUCAX333 Dude, just cause I'm a music fanatic I have to point out, that there is No Fb, and look it up if you don't belive me. It goes from Eb to E to F....

[LUCAX333]

@Mocifer666 yes, you're right, Fb is E, sorry i wrote my coment fast and i don't think in it. But Fb=E.

[haircut74]

@Mocifer666 if you really knew anything about music beyond grade-school teachings, you would know that there is, indeed, an Fb. what there isn't is a KEY of Fb. maybe that's what you meant though, i can't be sure.

[Mocifer666]

@haircut74 If YOU knew anything beyond grade school teachings, You would know that Fb does NOT Exist.... The Chromatic scale Ab, A, Bb, B, C, Db, D, Eb, E, F, Gb, G. There Is NO Fb, but there is an E#, A.K.A F, however, Fb is not interchangeable with E. Use other Resources if you think I'm wrong.....

[haircut74]

@Mocifer666 i don't have to use other resources. this is basic material taught in first semester theory. if you really are a "music fanatic", you should take time to learn about the circle of fifths and various key signatures. the key of Cb is denoted by SEVEN flats, which means that a one-octave Cb major scale from tonic to tonic is Cb-Db-Eb-Fb-Gb-Ab-Bb-Cb.

[Mocifer666]

@haircut74 Look.... You seem reasonable..... So listen, I did NOT mean to start an argument, though I was simply just pointing out what I was told..... This is what I know.... Maybe I don't know as much about MUSIC, but I do know how to play a hell of a guitar.... In which case, since I won't use all but the basics, I look no further into it. Sorry for the inconvenience. I don't argue, however, Unless I think that I am correct.

[haircut74]

@Mocifer666 fair enough. but like i said, if you truly are a music enthusiast, some more in-depth theory is worth learning about. if you have the time to learn, it's pretty fascinating.

[haircut74]

@Mocifer666 here's another context in which Fb appears: a Gb major chord consists of Gb-Bb-Db, and the major seventh of the chord would be F. the minor seventh, of course, would then be Fb. it could NOT be E, because E would be a raised sixth. as you said, Fb is certainly not interchangeable with E; they are two separate notes, and likewise F and E# are not the same note. the pairs may be virtually the same pitches, but the context in which they are used is different.

[Kingofmusic14]

@LUCAX333

Mocifer666 is right...Next time you feel like sounding smart, Learn your facts. Thanks

[Mocifer666]

@Kingofmusic14 Thank you Kingofmusic14....

[haircut74]

@Kingofmusic14 actually they were both wrong. maybe you should take your own advice.

[Kingofmusic14]

@haircut74 Sorry, but Fb does not exist...All I have to do to prove this to you is have you look at a piano, or a guitar. Half step up from E is F and Half step down from F is E...I am sorry, this is plain and simple music knowledge. Try not to over think it

[haircut74]

@Kingofmusic14 the note below F on a piano COULD be E, and it usually is, but not always, just as the note above it can be F# OR Gb. but in any case, a piano isn't the best example, because it's tuned to work in any key, so most of the notes are not precise, because in reality they would be slightly different in different keys. look at my previous posts if you need further explanation. Fb does exist. that's advanced musical understanding, beyond "plain and simple music knowledge".

[lawrence096]

wtf? i was thinkin this was a real performance

[payinattention225]

i like bowie a lot better than nirvana... but nirvana's version is much more like what the song is really meant to sound like... kurts voice fits it very well and i really dont like the phaser on bowie's.

[gongargongar]

Objective: David Bowie is a much better musician/performer than Kurt/Nirvana.

Subjective: While I really enjoy Bowie, I prefer Nirvana.

[WarriorWican]

deadly .....

[Mepelicer]

pay attention to the bass in Bowie's version. it's like, 9032975819204853085297 times better than nirvana's version hahaha

[SoxRockers50h4]

@Mepelicer no one cares about bass

[Mepelicer]

@SoxRockers50h4 thats what YOU think.

[skullhacks78]

I preffer Nirvana's version

[lawrence096]

@skullhacks78 yeh but bowie created that piece of gold

[r0bertpe]

HORRIBLE MIX!!!

[NightmareSnake]

David Bowie's sounds more "spacey", which is how it was meant to sound. Nirvana did an awesome version, though! :D

[staphinfection]

Worst piece of shit ever.

[Jacko499]

This is bloody dreadful. Who do I complain too?

[tannagilder]

Thank you ..I have watched this many times

[dimmeow]

This is possibly the worst idea ever, Bowie has some good stuff but lets face it, his version of this is terrible - original or not. ...also NOT EVEN THE SAME FUCKING KEY. WTF GARBAGE. ...ruins the otherwise amazing playlist this as on.

[feedusafetus]

@dimmeow Jesus christ on a bicycle! Bowie fails.

[brabon1]

@dimmeow its the studio version...the one he did on snl is basically the one that nirvana covers

[luiskurt206]

David Bowie looks like Cristiano Ronaldo (soccer footballer) AAAA LLL OOO TTT haha....

[SoxRockers50h4]

@luiskurt206 I feel sorry for Cristiano Ronaldo

[luiskurt206]

@SoxRockers50h4 For a bad world cup performance ? or for looking like David Bowie??

[SoxRockers50h4]

@luiskurt206 for looking like David Bowie. No one watches soccer.

[luiskurt206]

@SoxRockers50h4 Where do you live dude under a rock, or ur moms basement ?

[SoxRockers50h4]

@luiskurt206 in your mom's basement

[rcpmac]

Fun mix Thanks



[FAKEHUNTER33]

Kurt cobain is waaaaaaay better

[tmill909]

what a mix a fag and a hype!!! Sounds like they sure met their fate together. Except one is dead and the other one will live forever...

[anteaterattack]

This is sooooo annoying

[rajrahul00759]

i love KURT COBAIN,NIRVANA ROCKS!!!!!

He was the best guitarist and musician of all time.

his music was peice of art

RIP KDC

with love from INDIA

ron

[hasteros]

Nirvana use diff tuning in Unplugged from the original song so the matching is kinda weird when listening.Nice work though,legendary song...

[hotlinkcinema]

This is a really interesting idea - I have been playing around with similar concepts. Nice work.

[DreaDethklok14]

i prefer nirvanas version .

[briargoatkilla]

stupid. youre gay.

[jetstream468]

could be funny if it wasn´t out of time. annoying

[simasgar]

Uploader is a jerk

[minibreadsticks]

this is so fuckin fake

[eternalXxXmemorys]

@minibreadsticks

No Shit, Sherlock

[Jose38Angel]

nirvana sounds match better,,,,can i get a HELL YEAH,,,,,,,HELL YEAH

[festereteMiguel]

what are your trying to do?

[1justinc]

lol this is garbage

[xLFBx]

If David Bowie didn't write/make this song then Nirvana wouldn't have been able to cover it. They're both as good as each other, stop being pathetic and enjoy the song.

[no1boxingfan]

@xLFBx i thought lou lou did it originally??

[no1boxingfan]

@xLFBx i think lulu did it first?? i could be wrong either way i think nirvana version is best of the 3

[tomsk0]

@xLFBx David Bowie didnt write this song, it was Lulu, in the 60's... But i agree to them both being as good as each other

[Frank83600]

@tomsk0 Sorry but Bowie brought this song out in 1971, and Lulu covered it in 1974

[pills2103]

@xLFBx ...david bowie is better...Kurt Cobain is still the fucking man, don't get me wrong.

[crazy4baseball47]

@xLFBx its bands like nirvana and others that keep old classics alive!!! :D n bands do the same for nirvana now!!!!

[thebeerfest2008]

@xLFBx you have to say if they did record a version together it would of be great 

[Killer0770]

I prefer David Bowie.

[xHAMRxNxSIKLx]

lol 0:48 looks like david spade in ten years. i hate david spade...

[9876metallica]

david bowie s version sucks love the nirvana one and kurt cobain

[moominpic]

Kurt CoBowie

[Julen1998]

What fucked thing is this shit?

[dualisticnature]

Is this Kurt Bowie or David Cobain.

[TheBowieman]

BOWIE IS ZIGGY ZIGGY IS GOD thats why wee cobainy sings it so much he`s tryin tae sound like the thin white duke.....its s Bowie universe

[pinkdreamz07]

Interesting....Bowie my 1st love but I Love Nirvana's just as much....see you can be across many generations & love them all!

Kurt said it...that was a David Bowie song.

[joker4705]

bowie is shit

kurt rocks

[gicooll]

HAHAHAHA you r so pathetic

[markthewhalekiller]

@joker4705 Bowie is ALIVE.

[davejb23]

any idiot can cut out bits of text from a magazine and write the lyrics to a song, Bowie does look queer as fuck and should know better for an old git

[secular555]

This would have sounded better if they both played in the same key.

[sandcrawler22]

How could you even compare? I wouldnt listen to this song if it wasnt redone by nirvana and i probably wouldnt even know it if it wasnt, colbain has a way better voice, hes gota unique sound, and its grunge and i fuckin love it, bowie just sounds overly queer and retarded. Hands down Nirvana.

[ThePistolpete1963]

you sound homophobic.....maybe your scared of your own sexual feelings,your a pure gay boy lol

[SithAssassin91]

Bowie is good and all but Kurt's is way better sorry

[ThePistolpete1963]

bowies version is much better than curt cobains by a longshot....cobain over-rated shite!!! terrible

[sandcrawler22]

you Siirrrrr smell like an overzellar pile of feceus, baking casually in a hot California sun. I SAY GOOD-AY SAAIIRR!!

[ThePistolpete1963]

your a prat ,we are all entitled to our opinion no need for the abuse,i dont like curt simple as

[Pierrot7991]

awfull, sorry....

[ratbastrd669]

this is the worst video EVER!

[ivnvandyk]

APESTA ESTA VERSION

[EgagLatsev]

fuck bowie it sounds stupid when he sings lol

[thexfiles214]

your an idiot bowie does not sound stupid

[EgagLatsev]

@thexfiles214 not to his fag ass fanboys..... but to us "idiots" who prefer a guitar to a synth YES he does sound pretty stupid....

kurt made bowies ramblings sounds like an actual song

[thexfiles214]

Well at least bowies not constantly mumbling the song when he sings it. Its pure preference who you like better but you dont need to say stupid things ok LOL

[thanas1]

This was bad to mash up. Nirvana played and sang it tuned 1/2 step down so it sounds way out of tune when it changes between the two of them.

[KrazySpydrLady]

Why would you do such a terrible thing?!?!?! I'm crying now...so wrong man! I couldn't go past 19 seconds!

[rodneytheincontinent]

wow... if your crying over this you must be an emofag

[iSorrowproductions]

-__- You troll so much,

[applecody]

david bowie is so fucking gay nirvana is way better

[wutzi2004]

faggot

[Pufflelumps]

lol based on what?

[LeeHasNoImagination]

@applecody: David Bowie wasn't the one who gave a shotgun a blowjob.

[slakchen4ever]

LEFTY HANDED ,FTW :D
