Fact: Kurt indeed wrote About A Girl after spending an afternoon hearing to With The Beatles

[SoftDrinksOfChoice]

Doesn't surprise me how good this sounds. "About a girl" is the most Beatle-esque song he's written. Awesome work ! Subbed

I legit wish Kurt had written more songs like this. He could write an early Beatles song that holds up to the best of the actual stuff. Always thought this song was pop rock perfection.

[EnochOfficial]

Kurt would have loved this. He basically admitted About a Girl was a Beatles rip-off!

[LostHorizons]

The Beatles was one of his biggest influences

[yeOldeThorne]

The alternate timeline this comes from:
- John doesn't die in 1980
- The Beatles try to reunite several times during the 80s, but every attempt gets shot down by George
- John meets Kurt in 1992 after Nevermind gets released
- After releasing In Utero in 1993, Kurt leaves Nirvana to play with his hero
- In 1994, The Beatles officially return with the new lineup of John, Paul, Kurt, and Ringo

Great job! Was curious to hear someone else's take on this cover. Mine's a bit more Rubber Soul. Diggin this 🤙

[avedic]

Haha...I assumed this was one of the MANY AI covers populating earth. Your harmonies are so on point. Gives me that warm fuzzy feeling the actual Beatles harmonies give me.

[jackdawson]

First song that made me fall on love with Nirvana. I remember immedetley thinking it sounded like an early Beatles song, and always wanted to hear a cover in the style of them. Then i read somewhere that Kurt wrote About a Girl after listening to With The Beatles some crazy number of times in a row, and it all made sense. Anyway, thanks for making my dream song come true lol.

The right half of Kurt's face is terrifying

[BrytonBand]

Now, somebody needs to dub Lennon and McCartney's voices over this with AI.
You absolutely nailed the early Beatles essence here.

[utkr]

Probably one of my favourite covers on YT. Knew I was gonna be in for a treat once those tambourines hit. The harmonies are fantastic!

[giannisandris]

Reminds me a little bit of beach boys . The vocal harmonies after the solo are simply stunning

[MikeGervasi]

I told people back when Bleach came out to imagine "About a Girl" acoustically and that it really was a Beatles song. Few years later they did it on Unplugged and people also realized it. Kurt had a genius way of putting Beatle melodies in a punk aesthetic.

[ElArgentinianPibexD]

I like to believe that John Lennon in another dimension did not die, He met Kurt Cobain face to face and helped him cope with fame and addictions, both collaborating and creating songs even why not, Kurt convincing John that the Beatles should get back together.

[therandomdj]

This is amazing! Cobain would’ve loved this as he was a massive fan of the Beatles

[Eli-uwzt]

This sounds like a new band and I like the sound very much!

[betsyab]

I love the bass line, the harmonies and the sweet guitar solo, which sounds totally like something George would play! I am digging this version for sure!

[jamesoniris]

I honestly thought this was an Ai project- but this is so incredible and you have a serious talent. Keep up the great work
