All celebrities are in on the entire elite cult following. Fuck all of them. I appreciate talent but not when they submit the the elites and partake in rituals. Ya wanna know how to get famous, you sell your soul. Theres no other way.
Sorry but grunge has been dead since 96. They did their job in disrupting the music industry enough to allow the little guy to become famous. Thanks to them we now have all of these alternative musicians like post.
@@Byang764 hes a DJ too he works with all sorts of music I'm so proud of him for doing stuff on his own is definitely making more shit happen then the new blink for sure. I'm hardcore fan but I will not pay for any album of blink after California 😂
I was not expecting it to sound this good GODDAMN. Seen some of his past guitar work he's done , Post needs to do more rock and metal stuff man , he's talented ASF
This is authentic as hell. Post kept the Punk Rock in the song, I was fearing some overproduced commercialized cash in. This is not that. This is a worthy cover of a classic song and I'm quite sure Cobain would have approved.
juriaan13 on his voice? lmao fuck off, no he wasnt. it was the effect of the guitar. you just wanna hate on him cause hes a pop artist, yes they all suck but he is pretty good in this
Or even Miley Cyrus. Check out her cover of Say hello to Heaven, she has a very Steve Knicks sound mixed with pop and country. She has the perfect voice for grunge music tho.
Respect to Post. That was really fucking good. The playing was solid, but he really captured the energy of the song with his vocals. You can tell he has a deep appreciation for it.
I’m committed to listening, spend 6 hours a day with post on CZcams. I think I’m addictive to the distinctive compassionate personality it shows , he puts passion for the spotlight. Possibly we people in society hears cussing it’s a turn off. I don’t mind because I can see his true colors and look at his behavior towards his career and how he’s compassionate towards others. It’s just biased.
I’m 47 years old and I was in my 20’s during the grunge era. As an “old man” I have to say post Malone is The most gifted musician of his generation. Such range. He treats this song with great respect. Therefore I respect him for it.
We ain't old homie, can't ever be old when you came up on this shit. He's definitely talented and taken for granted. Did you see him open for the Chili Peppers? Check out that one. He has real talent
Its a shame other people don't see what we do.I liked him but this has turned me on to a whole new aspect of him .I've honestly never heard anyone pay the respect to Kurt he did here.mindblowing.
Just stumbled upon a random suggested of post covering Brad paisley prior to this I was like what the..It was insanely good and I'm not into country then this was in recommended and I've wandered onto your comment thanks for the insight lmao my respect for post has gained value
Does he sound like Kurt? No, Kurt is unique, it's not a bad thing he doesnt sound like Kurt and doesnt make the cover bad, Post definetly has the voice for a grunge band if there was ever a revival
on some notes, Post has a similar tone as Kurt's voice, but he does not have the same strength or quality of Kurt's voice. He cannot even make it through half the song without singing out of tune or losing his breath. Singing and screaming are not the same dude! Good attempt, but no cigar...
No he actually doesnt there’s a guy that sounds actually like Kurt it’s scary how close he sounds to Kurt his name is nikolai petrovsky look him up please and you’ll understand how close to Kurt he actually is
For real, it makes me so mad when I ask them what their favorite nirvana song is and they say “uh smells like teen spirit” or “I don’t know their songs I just like the name”
Read my comment below..I' m 54 & from Britain,was Nirvana play twice including in a pub in Scotland..can't believe this comment about kids wearing band shirts for hands they don't know..sorry but millennials really are a very contrived generation,pretty boring .
@Sinister as a big Nirvana fan I hate when people engage in gatekeeping circle jerks like this! I guarantee you've most likely never actually talked to most people you see wearing a nirvana shirt and probably just assume because they're not typically what a Nirvana fan looks like that they don't know anything about the band but let's just assume you're telling the truth for a minute how does them wearing a T-shirt without knowing who they are change nirvana's music or legacy ? It simply doesn't! Don't mean to sound rude but I really hate this type of self-aggrandizing no true scotsman attitude people have when it comes to things they like as if they don't own stuff that they don't know every detail about It's the same argument used for cultural appropriation just because somebody wants to wear dreads doesn't mean they need to sit through a 2-hour lecture about the history and racial prejudice that black people have traditionally endured and still do when they do it It's not the person getting the dreads you need to be mad at it's the society and system that's to blame Just like how courtney Love and record label have turned Nirvana merch into a brand you can buy at Walmart for 5 bucks!
I feel like he did the reverse of what many artists do. He sold out first, collected the cash, and in the near future he's gonna drop something real and heavy.
@@jmfm0911 I know exactly how they started. I know all about Hamburg, the 8 hour sets, the sex with prostitutes, etc... I wrote a paper in college about their cultural impact on the U.S. THEY didn't consider themselves a "boy band", others did.
I love when artists like Post Malone cover songs without trying to sound exactly like the original. It shows they have swag, true talent. Anyone can copy n paste. It takes a real one to sing it his way!
Yeah and he’s done country in the past as well. I think he’s good in whatever genre he wants to do. He’s so diverse and makes sure to show that in his albums, which always has a surprise or two in it.
I never heard of this guy, because my music tastes are stuck firmly in the 70s- early 00s rock, but it was in the recommended videos while I was listening to Nirvana tonight. I'm glad I found it.
I totally Agree the music industry took it a completely different direction. Not true to his talents. Makes me sad I hope he can break free or at least try to do what truly displays his ability to ROCK!
People keep saying "oh post malone! Do rock music! This rap thing is a facade! Rap is ghetto. Meh". Nah. He's good with whatever musical style he goes for.
Disagreed! Now that there are no shows for people to attend is the BEST time for artists to experiment with other music styles! Gone are the days of cd sales when albums would go platinum anyway as it's all about streaming nowadays, but at least he wouldn't have to worry about following up a potential album flop with a full tour to support it.
I'm 41 and never understand what the whole Post Malone fad was...I'm extremely old school, but holy sh+%! did he nail this tune...Right on dude!!!Screaming and slightly crude, but exactly how Kurt would have wanted it.
@@RandyH524 Yea I'm still in school and i listen to old school music like AC/DC, Avenged Sevenfold, Metallica, and Shinedown. For him to be able to do two music Genres and make it sound good is some serious talent. If you haven't heard "Take What You Want From Me" it's got some raps verses in it but Ozzy Osbourne is in the song and i found the sound to be pretty decent. Alright ✌🏼
I hate the modern generation of rappers. Anything post the 90s generation (Em,Tupac,Biggie etc) I won’t listen to because I don’t like mumble rapping but this was a good cover. He’s wasted on shitty rapping he should stick to grunge
Same, since I'm 41 and basically turned into my dad when it comes to newer music, lol. He gained a new fan here. Since I'm working from home now, and have nobody around, thinking I'll be listening to some Post Malone tomorrow while working. Just seems to be oozing with talent and also seems to be a solid human. I loved this.
Post Malone is not only an artist who creates his own (incredible) music, but he has an incredible personality and philosophy. Check him out on Hot Ones. Cool as Prince.
Signaling the technician with his free hand when the song gets to that open D, instead of stopping the performance, is a mark of a true performer. And very grungy, I might add.
He absolutely nailed it. And this is coming from a 44 year old music snob, whose teenage years were shaped by Nirvana. His music usually leaves me kinda meh, but this here is all that grunge is about. Happy sigh.
Wow Post is out here gaining rock/grunge fans. Much respect to him for being true to himself and not trying to be what the money men want him to be. This is a real tribute
@Matt Carelli I respect your opinion but I disagree. I think AIC sounds so very much like it use to. That's why I love Will. He tries to not inject his own vocal characteristics and instead stays true to the Layne/Jerry delivery of vocals. His playing is perfect. He definately grooves with the band not against it. I think he fits perfectly with the boys. He and Jerry sound SO GOOD together. They all sound great playing together. Their new songs sound like AIC songs. Like they're supposed to. Maybe later on in the future well hear more of William's diversity of vocal style or playing. But as of now, I'm extremely satisfied with the group and the direction they've gone. I truly believe that Layne would be honored by the band staying so musically true. And I really think he would like William, alot. Just sayin'.
To say that this is impressive is quite the understatement, apparently there isn’t much Posty isn’t amazing at musically. He is now taking pop country by storm and the world is loving it. Me I’d rather see him become a rock star after witnessing this performance. My 22 year old daughter is a fan of Post and has been telling me about him for a while and I wonder what she thinks of this cover
@@mansisity i dont want to be "that guy".. but.. hes technically correct. The best kind of correct. What is a "Bass" called? Just "Bass"? No. Its a "Bass Guitar".😂😂
Andrew Jack yes but he stated the other guitarist when in reality the other guitarist isn’t wearing a dress. Therefore he was referring to the bass player lol
Holy fuck!!! I'm 60 and had never heard of Post Malone until I saw him guest-hosting IMpractical Jokers tonight. Figured he must be important so I googled him and saw his musical accomplishments. Went to CZcams and when I typed in "Post Malone..." the first return was "Post Malone Nirvana." I was like, WTF? So I clicked and saw this. Never seen a band come close to capturing Nirvana's sound or Kurt Cobain's voice like this. I am now an official Post Malone fan and for die-hard (and old) Nirvana fans like me - THANK YOU POST MALONE FOR THIS BEAUTIFUL EVENING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They've done tons better in other performances. According to some vocalist youtuber person the PoM guy just had a bad voice day and massively failed to adjust his performance according to the limits of his voice at the time
@@WlatPziupp Yeah Wes does have a good voice (wouldn't be where he is other wise), just a shame its that performance that blew up. Didn't know about the bad voice day thing, a key change probably would have helped the performance
From what I understand, this is the type of music he wanted to get famous on, but what he's doing now did it faster. That's alright, Posty. We know who you are. 🖤
No, he was an emo kid when he was growing up. He was in a few emo "like" bands when younger. Please don't confuse emo with grunge. They are completely different.
Well, you clearly haven't seen much because this is just a generic cover. Garden variety, dive bar cover brand garbage. They pretty much just played the song note for note. This might as well be karaoke. Nothing special going on here at all.
@@johncotto48 I completely understand the reasoning behind it but surely he's made enough money to make the music that he wants. This is all speculation of course. Perhaps he really likes pop music 🤷
@@kobejordan5518 lol. His voice is objectively better than Kurt's so I'd say his broken rusty Swiss army knife voice is "it" for this particular genre chief
I am a super Nirvana fan, this is shockingly good. Best "Like Nirvana" cover i've ever heard! He's obviously taking a couple of inflections of his own around 3:50 on, but man... when its THIS GOOD who can complain?! Post Malone is defining himself as above genres.
@@natashabury-wilder4337 yeah this really didn’t do much for me. You can hear the effects on his voice, the guitar tone is definitely off, this is not really that accurate.
Did he anyone notice first verse that was Post Malone's actual singing voice and then other verses he added that lame wanna be stevie nicks sheep singing like he does in Circles and all his shitty pop songs? Just hold the note goddamit lol First verse is proof he can actually sing! I'm stunned tbh
I’m a middle aged woman in her 50’s. I love everything Post touches. I just hope he stays with us and doesn’t go out like every badass before him. Take care of yourself Post and show us what you got. I love it all but you have so much more to show us. Keep your dream alive and yourself.
Well im surprised too. Have you ever listened to seether? Shaun morgan could fill in for curt , for a reunion. He even looks like a chubby version of him.
Never really listened to him before just watched a few cover songs and this one gave me chills !! It’s outstanding how much he sounds like Kurt!! Only person I’ve heard to even come close to sounding like him. Post can most definitely adapt to any type of music and nail it every time!!! It’s a rare talent to have !! Let’s hope he has many many yrs to come to perform music.
Jesus look at how much you can tell he loves doing this type of music, he’s so much like john mayer in the sense that his talents expand to much more challenging genres of music especially in posty’s case where you take into account the fact he’s playing guitar which hardly anyone knows he can play (obviously john mayer plays guitar too)
Edward forrester just meant it as no matter what genre John has a guitar, it’s not the same for post which in a way made it kinda a bad comparison lmao
The fact that he put on an old dress just goes to show how much love & respect Posty has for Kurt. Not a Post fan, but if he puts out a grunge/hard rock album I might just become one😉✌🤘
Yeah ,I' m well 54 so well and truly around before ' grunge' so like you don't really like Post's music HOWEVER..holy fuck if he rocked out and sang like this then I'd own every album in vinyl..he makes a great rock front man 👍x
if he ever drops a grunge album i'll be the first one to buy it
Dude, same. Dave Grohl liked this stuff, too!
Even if he did like 2 or 3 rock songs on his next album I’d buy it.
He used to be in a metal band look it up
Rampage Light Do you have the band’s name?
Devon Fennell bands name is “Ashley’s arrival”
He's one of those celebrities who isn't insufferable and actually is a really cool guy
A true artist which we have very few now
He used to be a metalcore guitarist which I think is dope
Reminds me of dime bag
I'm sure his publicist would be happy you feel that way about PM.
All celebrities are in on the entire elite cult following. Fuck all of them. I appreciate talent but not when they submit the the elites and partake in rituals. Ya wanna know how to get famous, you sell your soul. Theres no other way.
He is so versatile! Rap, Pop, Country, now Grunge. One of the few bright spots in modern music today.
He's a huge metal head too :)
@@racecarbed and he sucks at singing
Plus he has two songs with ozzy osbourne
And they all sound horrible!

@Peglegkickboxer .....Well you aren't smart.

I swear xD I see him more nowadays than I did with Blink
Byang764 he’s come out of his true shell I think
Because hes the best 🙏🙌
@@Byang764 hes a DJ too he works with all sorts of music I'm so proud of him for doing stuff on his own is definitely making more shit happen then the new blink for sure. I'm hardcore fan but I will not pay for any album of blink after California 😂

I don’t get it?
Brilliant! 😂

This is authentic as hell. Post kept the Punk Rock in the song, I was fearing some overproduced commercialized cash in. This is not that. This is a worthy cover of a classic song and I'm quite sure Cobain would have approved.
i appreciate that he kept the voice vibrato out, that always takes me out of his live performances
No one is talking about how well he did the "hey! Wait!" Not everyone can pull that off in their covers
Yeahhh this is so trueee❤
nah it was a bit low, had to o higher, still did decent tho
Was flat as fuck
Grant Daniell - Solo Performer you're entitled to your opinion, even if it's wrong

Best heart shaped box cover ever listen to.nothing added noting missed. Perfect
Good comment , but I miss Kurt.

Crazy to think Post Malone could be the guy that brings back rock to mainstream radio.
Or even Miley Cyrus. Check out her cover of Say hello to Heaven, she has a very Steve Knicks sound mixed with pop and country. She has the perfect voice for grunge music tho.

He really is. “I fall apart” is one of my favorite songs, it’s a little outside of a lot of his hits
For all those who haven’t gone down the Post rabbit hole... my man is so gifted and versatile. He literally kills it in any genre he touches.
I just started the rabbit hole. This is track 2
Crazy he can do this then turn around and sing a country song lol

Two years ago my kids asked me why I liked Post Malone.. I told them he is a grunge rocker larping as a rapper... See how right I was👆
when he sings gives me goosbumps like that wavy voice get you...
Love this
he is, its just the music industry, if he released his songs as rock they wouldnt sell... but hes definitely a rocker..
rappers make it bigger today than grunge. he was smart about that

@I decide your pronouns, not you. it gave me a notification that you replied
Ballgown
I didn’t even notice. Very good.
I like his 'Orthodox-Jew-with-face-tats' look.
Bulbi from Jimmy Neutron but if he hung out with Sheen after graduation
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
OMG no no no. No humor allowed when it comes to anything that has to do with people
Post should do grunge honestly his voice has that vibrato and rasp, not like a pop singer at all.
That was awesome beyond words. Very good rendition of one of my favorite Nirvana songs.
Signaling the technician with his free hand when the song gets to that open D, instead of stopping the performance, is a mark of a true performer. And very grungy, I might add.
When does he do that
@@sosukeaizen2723 Every time he's pointing upwards ☝🏼☝🏼☝🏼
I thought the same myself!
Why is he doing that, whats The problem?
His guitar was too quiet, that’s why he was pointing up for volume
He absolutely nailed it. And this is coming from a 44 year old music snob, whose teenage years were shaped by Nirvana. His music usually leaves me kinda meh, but this here is all that grunge is about. Happy sigh.
So true I couldn’t agree more
damn that means probably a lot coming from someone like you, i like his music but i'm more driven to the beautiful sounds of the guitar
@@kobevink I'm a girl, not all grunge Gen xers are created male 😁
Irene Afonso i am so sorry, i probably read your name to fast it was completely my fault
@@kobevink nevermind 😁😁😁😁
Wow Post is out here gaining rock/grunge fans. Much respect to him for being true to himself and not trying to be what the money men want him to be. This is a real tribute
the return of grunge: replacing plaid with grandma dresses
Cobain wore the same dress. Have to assume that’s why he’s wearing lol.
Oh I thought it was an ugly girl,w ugly dress..good2know✌thanx
Leeann Witt Huh
@@jdevoe886 came here to say the same 👍
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hats off. I thought Post Malone was a talentless pop artist. This shows some diversity.
I really wanted to not like him when I first heard him. He has completely won this old woman over. He is very talented.
he used to play in a metal band! :)
Fact
Judgemental much
Y'all need to be more open-minded with modern artists
Maaaan this is so strong and beautiful, i loved every moment of listening
I love him so much, this cover was really good, he deserves so much more hype
Feel like this dude has enough grit in his voice to lay down some Hetfield lyrics.
Yea or Phil Anselmo!
He should cover One
He should cover The thing that should not be. That would summon the Kthulhu
He did Nothing else matters. Search it up
No bro
I feel like he is the only one that has properly summoned Kurt in this song. It’s incredible.
Imagine if they did a nirvana album with post Malone as vocals i think it would work it's like how static X is doing
Summoned or CHANNELED.
@Matt Carelli I respect your opinion but I disagree. I think AIC sounds so very much like it use to. That's why I love Will. He tries to not inject his own vocal characteristics and instead stays true to the Layne/Jerry delivery of vocals. His playing is perfect. He definately grooves with the band not against it. I think he fits perfectly with the boys. He and Jerry sound SO GOOD together. They all sound great playing together. Their new songs sound like AIC songs. Like they're supposed to. Maybe later on in the future well hear more of William's diversity of vocal style or playing. But as of now, I'm extremely satisfied with the group and the direction they've gone. I truly believe that Layne would be honored by the band staying so musically true. And I really think he would like William, alot. Just sayin'.
Shawn from seether is as close as u will get to Kurt. But I actually think Shawn has a much better vocal range, sang some songs better than than kurt
@Matt Carelli Dude from Seether has Godly vocal chords
To say that this is impressive is quite the understatement, apparently there isn’t much Posty isn’t amazing at musically. He is now taking pop country by storm and the world is loving it. Me I’d rather see him become a rock star after witnessing this performance. My 22 year old daughter is a fan of Post and has been telling me about him for a while and I wonder what she thinks of this cover
everybody : jams
post malone : rondomly points to the ceiling for no reason
If post malone ever released a grunge album I’d download it in a heartbeat
Someone have to write, and properly... Who can do that?
He wouldn't know what grunge was if it slapped him in the face
Hell, it will go in the ten disc player
@@Timekeeper1200 well he knows Nirvana is grunge… so
(1)
Post Malone's imperfect take on Nirvana is absolutely perfect!
Guitar is wanked though.
Exactly what I thought. Different vibe but still he killed it.
imo nirvanas music sounds very imperfect or unpolished witch is my favorite part about their music, especially on bleach. so this is really cool!
this dude has done multiple genres and nailed all ofem... dudes a real musician.. his voice is so unique
Just saw him live yesterday and here I am binging all his covers… so talented, I love him so much!
hes totally got the voice for this, he should really try to bring rock back into the mainstream
Him, Miley, and Greta Van Fleet could do it honestly. all of them have the creativity and talent to pull it off
I would love rock to be mainstream and get rid of this pop shit that appears
He has a pretty weak voice
@@jayriley1452 clown
He kinda did with his song "Take what you want" in which I love the guitar
I love how post and the other guitarist are wearing dresses. They did a real nirvana tribute
That would be a bass player my friend ....
@@mansisity i dont want to be "that guy".. but.. hes technically correct. The best kind of correct. What is a "Bass" called? Just "Bass"? No. Its a "Bass Guitar".😂😂
Most people usually do just call it a bass...
Andrew Jack yes but he stated the other guitarist when in reality the other guitarist isn’t wearing a dress. Therefore he was referring to the bass player lol
Kurt would have loved it!
Amazing voice. Great tribute to Kurt and Nirvana. Thanks!!
Holy fuck!!! I'm 60 and had never heard of Post Malone until I saw him guest-hosting IMpractical Jokers tonight. Figured he must be important so I googled him and saw his musical accomplishments. Went to CZcams and when I typed in "Post Malone..." the first return was "Post Malone Nirvana." I was like, WTF? So I clicked and saw this. Never seen a band come close to capturing Nirvana's sound or Kurt Cobain's voice like this. I am now an official Post Malone fan and for die-hard (and old) Nirvana fans like me - THANK YOU POST MALONE FOR THIS BEAUTIFUL EVENING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I did the exact same thing. I’m impressed by his voice!
This is how you do a Nirvana cover.
Puddle of Mudd.... Not so much.
They've done tons better in other performances. According to some vocalist youtuber person the PoM guy just had a bad voice day and massively failed to adjust his performance according to the limits of his voice at the time
@@WlatPziupp Yeah Wes does have a good voice (wouldn't be where he is other wise), just a shame its that performance that blew up.
Didn't know about the bad voice day thing, a key change probably would have helped the performance
Hahaha
Seriously who thought releasing that was a good idea?
Yes but then again puddle of mudd has better songs that post malo e regardless of that cover
he somewhat has parts of his voice that sounds a bit like kurt
There's backing vocals I think
Smoking does that
@@sinatraforeign LMAOOOO
it's a good voice but not the same at all
@@sinatraforeign bro i've smoked rolled cigarettes hard for nearly 4 years and still sound like a squeaker. my lungs are yet to blessed
the fact that he's in that old grandma dress, had me like " oh kurt " 😟♥♥♥ neweis i loved this
That was awesome!!! So much respect to Post and everyone involved.
i’m starting to think that Travis Barker just pops up where there is drumming needed
it is travis right? im not so sure
He can pop up for me...
seems that way
Used to be Kenny Arnoff...
That’s what he does lol
From what I understand, this is the type of music he wanted to get famous on, but what he's doing now did it faster. That's alright, Posty. We know who you are. 🖤
What you just said is not even close to true
@@griffenatekevinbacon I'd recommend a correction rather than a simple negation.
@@griffenatekevinbacon actually he was in a rock band.
hey......fake it till ya make it.
No, he was an emo kid when he was growing up. He was in a few emo "like" bands when younger. Please don't confuse emo with grunge. They are completely different.
These are the best nirvana covers I've ever seen. The vocal performance does justice to Kurt's vocals while still having his own stamp on it
Well, you clearly haven't seen much because this is just a generic cover. Garden variety, dive bar cover brand garbage. They pretty much just played the song note for note. This might as well be karaoke. Nothing special going on here at all.
Love you Post for doing this cover!!!! Excellent job ❤️
It would be cool if Post Malone switch’s from pop to grunge rock.
It'd be cool if he switched to anything other than pop lmao. Dude is way too talented for it
@@GhoulGrundle it's where the money is sadly it's why he was a ghost writer for awhile but he is talented af
@@johncotto48 I completely understand the reasoning behind it but surely he's made enough money to make the music that he wants. This is all speculation of course. Perhaps he really likes pop music 🤷
Nothing wrong with pop music dude
Kevin Contreras it music that’s too soft
Post needs to cover every genre of music. His voice is like a swiss army knife
Yeah, when there's no auto tune
Bro postys been singing for years and actually knows how to there's plenty of live videos without autotune and old cover videos of him singing
Yeah a rusty one that doesnt work and is about to be thrown away. He needs to stick to autotune cause this ain't it.
@@kobejordan5518 lol. His voice is objectively better than Kurt's so I'd say his broken rusty Swiss army knife voice is "it" for this particular genre chief
@@shhs1227 nah he need autotune that doesnt fit in this genre
The whole concert is absolutely amazing. Next best thing to seeing Nirvana live (and sometimes, much better). Honest.
❤ still listening. He was awesome for doing this for us during Quarantine ❤
My brother used to love nirvana so much , sadly he passed away 7 years ago :( rip bro i miss you
Same here 😩
😟😢
❤
@@cierrabratsberg4990 did you also pass away 7 years ago?
@@cevs3123 my brother did. Well, 6 years ago.
I am a super Nirvana fan, this is shockingly good. Best "Like Nirvana" cover i've ever heard! He's obviously taking a couple of inflections of his own around 3:50 on, but man... when its THIS GOOD who can complain?! Post Malone is defining himself as above genres.
Who can complain? I got a new complaint.
Idk about that...this is good Kurt is better but give father John Misty's cover of heart shaped box its beautifully done
@@natashabury-wilder4337 yeah this really didn’t do much for me. You can hear the effects on his voice, the guitar tone is definitely off, this is not really that accurate.
I am 43 and grew up listening to Nirvana back in the day. This cover is fire 🔥🔥🔥💯
This actually sounds awesome. Wasnt expecting this.
I consider myself a huge Nirvana fan and this is probably the best cover version I've ever heard of this song.
I'm all in on Post Malone going grunge. Dude's voice is killer when he isn't hiding it behind autotune
I was surprised by how unique his unprocessed voice is. I like the warble in it.
I know. The autotune in this killed me. It was disgusting
I was under the impression there is some effect being used on his voice to make him sound more like kurt
Aeris all voice effects aren’t auto tune he just has reverb on it which doesn’t change the sound at all
Did he anyone notice first verse that was Post Malone's actual singing voice and then other verses he added that lame wanna be stevie nicks sheep singing like he does in Circles and all his shitty pop songs? Just hold the note goddamit lol First verse is proof he can actually sing! I'm stunned tbh
I don't know who this guys is. I grew up in the 90's and this THE best Nirvana cover I have ever heard.
He's more pop music with all these face tats, but he knows the good rock from childhood and clearly recognizes.
You sir are dumb as shit
Shawn Morgan from Seether does the best cover I’ve seen
Really the best nirvana cover you ever heard? Are you serious?
@@eddieestrada2303 Calm down. It's just a song kid.
Ngl this brings me a whole new found respect for this dude. I had no idea he had actual talent. Good stuff bro 🤙
Posty is the only person I've heard that can do justice to Cobain's vocals in a Nirvana song. Hat's off
“Cut myself on angel hair and baby’s breath” most perfect line in this song.
I’m a middle aged woman in her 50’s. I love everything Post touches. I just hope he stays with us and doesn’t go out like every badass before him. Take care of yourself Post and show us what you got. I love it all but you have so much more to show us. Keep your dream alive and yourself.
@James Howler So edgy!
I am too. You were around when nirvana exploded. Best times.
He should really start making grunge, rock/punk rock, and metal.
Best Nirvana cover I have ever heard.
Me too. Haven´t heard any!? I blame my age 12½ when ¨Nevermind¨ came...
And Someone `Groomed´(OMG) me more towards AiC and SG.
This was one of the best covers I’ve ever heard period. Wow
Bass player looking like he's wearing his grandmas shower curtain.
🗿
I guess no mention of malone's dress then. Guess we know now who wore it better. Lol
@Lizzy Batson pattern still looks like an elderly woman's extra bed sheet, and i fucking love it.
Part of the Nirvana tribute.
@Lizzy Batson he compare it to shower curtain because the body proportion and the dress is pretty significant Wich make the dress looks big
I’m a huge post fan and I think he should move to rock/grunge
He could literally revive the genre. His voice fits SO WELL
Well im surprised too.
Have you ever listened to seether? Shaun morgan could fill in for curt , for a reunion. He even looks like a chubby version of him.
Damn we need that so bad nowadays just fucking rock out like the ol days🤩🤓
@@jacvalleyman5550 hell yeah another seether fan
@@garbagebingoblin4670 yes!!!!
100%
Whoa .....was not expecting that🤯👍🏼✌🏼 impressed, good job boys!!
Never really listened to him before just watched a few cover songs and this one gave me chills !! It’s outstanding how much he sounds like Kurt!! Only person I’ve heard to even come close to sounding like him. Post can most definitely adapt to any type of music and nail it every time!!! It’s a rare talent to have !! Let’s hope he has many many yrs to come to perform music.
Jesus look at how much you can tell he loves doing this type of music, he’s so much like john mayer in the sense that his talents expand to much more challenging genres of music especially in posty’s case where you take into account the fact he’s playing guitar which hardly anyone knows he can play (obviously john mayer plays guitar too)
W M W John Mayer also plays guitar?? I thought post Malone was the only one
@@eguy47 yeah they must be the only people that play guitar
Edward forrester just meant it as no matter what genre John has a guitar, it’s not the same for post which in a way made it kinda a bad comparison lmao
Post Malone did other music before he got big doing rap....
Hard to even put this guy in a sentence with John Mayer dude.
Oh, so he's just been making the wrong type of music this whole time? Good choice sir.
Yup. He’s been trying to keep the lights on, but we all know where his heart is.
Just taking a trip back to where he started
@@TheChapMX this is where we need him to stay.
Ashton Gilmore I agree!!!
If you think there is a wrong and right type of music then I feel very sorry for you
I graduated in the 90s I love this version. Plus no lie they dressed the part. I love everything about this.
Amazing transformation!
Post was my 21' discovery.
I'm loving 5ge man each week more. Chameleon beast, so relaxed, makes such an impact
The fact that he put on an old dress just goes to show how much love & respect Posty has for Kurt. Not a Post fan, but if he puts out a grunge/hard rock album I might just become one😉✌🤘
Not many people will understand the dress thing!
Even in the Chili Pepper song "Tearjerker" Anthony talks about seeing him backstage in a dress!
The versatility of Post Malone is unlike anything. country, grunge, pop, rap, folk. He has it all
How can you not like Post Malone? That's like saying you don't like sweets... or drugs
Yeah ,I' m well 54 so well and truly around before ' grunge' so like you don't really like Post's music HOWEVER..holy fuck if he rocked out and sang like this then I'd own every album in vinyl..he makes a great rock front man 👍x
There's a ferocity to this that does Kurt some justice for sure, hats off to you Mr Malone.
