Monday music: "Smells Like Teen Spirit" and another bonus, by The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain
[Honestly, not sure what to tell you about this. I found it in Draft, yet it apparently had been published already once. Whatever. Here it is. Again? Whatever.]

Now I have seen everything. I was 15 when the Nirvana/Seattle Grunge "thing" dropped. To be honest, my friends and I loved it...though I admit it is so much less appealing to me these days. Now some cheeky Brit and his ukulele crew are rocking the jams of my youth. I heard an orchestral rendition of a Metallica tune in an elevator the other day, too. I must be getting old.
I never thought I'd say this, but Nervana is actually better than the cover band. Full disclosure: I was a college student in the NW during the grudge years. My friends loved them, but I preferred Manhattan Transfer.
Wow. It took the Ukulele Orchestra to make me realize how funny the Nirvana lyrics are! The song in its original form sounded "cool", but then again I never bothered to listen to what Kurt Cobain was actually singing. That guy was totally wasted....
While that was quite entertaining I still think "Weird Al" got the true spirit of Nirvana with his parody.
