OP

Oh, fair enough then. Although towards the end of the song he ramps it up quite a bit, and it loses its 'bro relax' feel, which is a thing Sturgill does often in his songs.

Now that I'm thinking about it, I don't know why he didn't cover Lithium instead of In Bloom. This genre of music would go much better with that song and - if he kept the same style he uses here - be a good cover of sounding literally medicated into happy relaxed submission, which keeps the original meaning intact while adding a creepy feel on top.

On his previous album he did a cover of an 80s pop song, and turned it into a sad ballad. I think he likes turning genres on their heads.

I can appreciate the genre-spinning. It just doesn't always work, is all. Especially with groups like Nirvana where the originals are usually already bitter angry songs being spun into something more upbeat.

Yeah, I get that. I guess I just don't have the same connection to the original, so whatever has been lost from it is going over my head.

Have you ever listened to the original?

OP

I have, but I'm still so unfamiliar with Nirvana and their intent to really make up my mind on it.

Ramps it up?? Maybe in the sense of going from country ballad to sweeping American Idol inspirational number.

OP

Sturgill knows how to burn up a stage, man. That cover is him at his mildest. Comparing him to American Idol contestants is laughable.

Too bad he couldn't have brought some of that to this cover.

Eh, you win some you lose some.
