3. Smells like Teen Spirit – The Bad Plus
P.S. I have no rights to the cotton ball version of Smells Like Teen Spirit. I have spent many internet minutes trying to find the original source… I found it on someone’s webpage back when geocities and myspace carried some weight. My guess is that the original hosting site no longer exists. If you have information about the artist, let me know. I genuinely love his cover.
