Miley Cyrus sings Smells Like Teen Spirit

...

























:rage:

Please, keep her away from the good music. Kurt Cobain shouldn't have to be put through this. D:
 
original is much better...

Miley Miley Miley...I think she's moved past singing about rainbows and butterflies...and is wondering what other songs she can make her skimpy outfits and raspy...I mean "sultry" voice work to...Oh I know! Nirvana! :gasp:
 
*shakes head*

*shakes head*

wow. That was probably the saddest cover of any song I have ever heard.

I am quite sure Kurt Cobain is giving miss Cyrus the double middle finger from whatever "heaven" he is in.
 
Ohhhhhhhh nooooooooooooo!

This is so bad. Dear lord. It is so horrible. Did you see her horrible dance seizures at the beginning??? Thanks for taking one of my favorite bands and raping it's soul. Fuck you Miley, FUCK YOU!

:rage: x 10

I doubt it, Kurt Cobain seemed quite intelligent, unlike a lot of Nirvana fans. And considering he killed himself he wouldn't have gone to heaven.

I didn't think it was that bad, I've certainly heard far worse covers, I thought her main problem was her accent, and that she tried to cover it like a Nirvana tribute band, rather than her own interpetation of the song.

Still at least she is lap dancing, what a relief.
 
She's not that bad to be honest.

And also...her dancing reminds me of Stevie Nicks. Coked out chicken dance Stevie Nicks. :sad3:
 
Tbh I don't think anyone could do it like the original, except for maybe Seether because their sound is often a bit similar to Nirvana. I've heard Tori Amos cover this song, and I pretty much hero worship her music and I still didn't care for it much. I'm not surprised though about this new MC cover, there have been so many shitty, grotesque, disgustingly-bad covers of old songs lately that it's not even funny. No offense to anyone who might like it, but whoever made that new cover of Foreigner "I want to know what love is" almost made me shoot myself the other day when I heard it. And they really needed to leave Don Henley "Boys of Summer" alone. And there are plenty of others, I just can't think of them atm :hmmm: (The only recent exception is Sara Bareilles doing Peter Gabriel's "In Your Eyes", that woman can sing that song like a motherf*cking miracle and the stripped arrangement is ace <3)
 
whatthefuckisthisshit?! :rage:

I mean that song wasn't really the best song Nirvana's ever written but I really don't think Miley pulled it off. I mean in the beginning she's jerking to the music just trying to be a rocker or something. It's dreadful in her presentation. In the voice she just isn't doing it at all. It's not even an "It's not that bad" kind of cover. It's definitely worse because she kinda puts her weird singing style into it and it's just clashing. I have to give props to the musicians though. They got their part right. Miley on the other hand should pick different inspiring songs to sing. >.>
 
I've only watched half of it, but the guitar's tone sounds so wrong

ITS CALLED A DISTORTION PEDAL :rage:
 
I don't know what is more disturbing; the cover itself, or the fact that Cyrus thought she could even pull it off in the first place...
 
Well at least i can understand her, and thats with the crappy quality and the hapless screaming of fans. Yeah, like others have said ive heard way worse covers than this. Though in my oppinion the original is a pretty shite song anyway. Im not hating on nirvana they have a couple of great tracks but ive never liked this one.
Weird al yankoviches version was the best. At least thatl make you laugh.
I reckon people are gunna hate on this more because its miley. The only thing that would enrage the mighty nirvana fans more would be if it was justin bieber.

Your right it is not that bad...its friggen worse. I have always hated her and I knew she was gonna be one of those untalented pop chicks that moved from innocent kids stuff and become icon sluts and bad role models.

Did you know even her father refuses to be a part of her now? He says all he wanted was the family to be closer and she keeps falling into worse choices and situations with her real life off camera. He actually refuses to speak to her because he is tired of being blamed for her actions and says there is no controlling her.

Why does she have to ruin music I like? Its not even a female vocalist song so why doesnt she remake some other crappy song. She had the world handed to her through her father and other connections and now she is just pissing on all of those familys who raised their kids watching that television show who thought that she was a respectable icon. I know your probably thinking that she may have done some stupid things but nothing all that horrible yet...just wait...she will bloosem into a horrible weed.

I didn't really have a problem with her voice, but I just hate the guitar's tone. And you'd think after nearly two decades of being the first/easiest song just about anyone who's ever played the gutiar has learned this century someone could try to put some of their own spin on it. :wacky:
 
The cover is pretty bad, and like Böb Dylän said the main reason for that is the fact that she tried to emulate Cobain's voice rather than sing it as her own version of the song.My main problem is that she said the song inspired her when she was younger, even though it's effectively a meaningless song(Kurt gave multiple different explanations of what the song was about). Or that it was his most hated song, that he reamed out as being sell-out trash music
 
Thats just wrong, I got to the end of the first line of lyrics and then left the vid, she sounded terrible and i can't believe she killed a good song like Smells like Teen spirit. I Can't believe she did this, it's destroying my soul just knowing that she has done this, I have to go and cry in my room now,

Miley, please for the love of everything in this world, stay away from Nirvana Covers

Yes I was quite aware that he doesn't want to take responsibility for the WRECK he made when his daughter was too young to make her decisions. It's easy now that she's not making him money and he's not riding on her coat tails for him to say all sorts of stuff. I hope she cuts him off at the nuts.

Honestly, I mean all of his current success is because of her. Saying that she rode on his coat tails, it may have been true at the start, but honestly that only got her the role. It's not like people know who Billy Ray was now days anyway.

And lots of people do crazy things when they're teenager. I'm sure you were no rose garden, nor have I been. The worse she's done is show some skin and do some sort of pot or pot-like (depends on where you read) drug and I would think you with all your legalizing of that desire wouldn't condemn her for that.

Well this is completely off topic but I will indulge it. First of all her father MADE miley famous using his connections. 2nd of all I read through a long interview they had with the father about this situation. The fact of the matter is she is an adult now....he needs to not to take the blame for her situation and they both have loads of cash so its not like they have too look out for each other. Her father will ALWAYS be more awesome than miley. He is a rock star, she is just another copy and cloned disney child Icon that has folded under pressure and is turning into a slutty icon who dresses and skimpy clothing. What does the disney show celebrity have any business covering a nirvana song in the first place. She has had controversial footage left and right and been going to clubs underage when her father forbid it. He states that he only wanted to be close to her daughter and be more like a family and that was one of the reasons he was on the show with her...its not like he needs the money. But being a celebrity turned her into another trampy looking drama queen. I don't care if your a teen or not...your still subject to the same drinking laws as other teens, and if she can't handle the pressure of being a superstar than quit. The world doesnt need another corrupted spoiled weak teen superstar.................and the song sucked. As she sings this song she is just signing herself more excuses to do dumb shit. She is trying to make her bad choices reflected upon as an act of rebelion or wildness....when its not that at all....it excuses.

I would also like to add that it is redundant to bring my personol beliefs into this subject. I may be smoking pot, but I am not marketing it to a million kids who are fans of hers. And this thread was about the quality of the song and I am not the only one in this group who does not like her yet you choose to debate with me using a example that I did not even mention. Did you consider I did not mention the pot accusations for the reasons that I do not care. I can dislike her for my own reasons and they have been spoken. There needs to be no more to this.
