And I’m not saying that the original is bad. You have to have a good song to have a good cover in my opinion. But sometimes the cover artist just understands the mission and takes what the original song did and expands on that a hundred times over.

What’re some of your guys’s favorites?

    also Jesus doesn’t want me for a Sunbeam which came from unplugged too.

    some of my favorite covers nirvana did though were not off unplugged, Love Buzz, Molly’s Lips, And I Love Her

      I completely forgot about Love Buzz somehow (that bass line tho) and have already kicked myself for not mentioning their The Vaselines covers. Glad someone brought em up!

      I think Incesticide was one of their most vibiest releases and the covers on their are all wonderfully done. Molly’s Lips very much included!
