    Watch the Tori Amos cover of it, its there on the right on the you-tube page. That one is a heck of a lot worse. Her music is awesome, but her singing is pretty worthless.

    Reminds me of that band from the 80's, Black Velvet Flag. They did lounge covers of hardcore punk songs.

    I was never a fan of most of Nirvana's versions of their songs.

    The wife and I believe Mr. Anka improved on the tune significantly.

    You can run over a Tele with a pickup truck, pick it up - and it'll still play out of tune

    That one is a far more intense version than Anka's!

    Those are not the the worst, IMO. Somehow, Anka manages to corral the fury/thrust of Nirvana into the drainless shower stall of Zyklon B.

    I don't think Kurt would mind knowing that an old geezer who "don't know what it means," is keeping his music alive, regardless of how it's done.

    No not the worst as all. I actually like them and posted them as sort of a counter point to the Anka pain.
