    In a sea of crappy TH-cam cover songs, this is refreshingly not bad. Kudos.

    I'll be honest with you. I wasn't going to watch your video when it popped up in my feed because I didn't wanna watch the gender swapped version of Velma from Scooby Doo attempt to cover this song, but I watched anyway and I was pleasantly surprised. Good job man.

    All hail Jeff Magnum, all hail the king. On a side note this is probably the best cover of this song that's been recorded and uploaded to TH-cam anyway.

  • @direst9570

    Came in expecting half-baked 4/10 cover.
    Got out knowing someone other than Jeff himself can perform the "I'll crush him with everything i owwwwwwwwn! Say what you want to say and..." part.
    Absolutely stunning cover.

      I am a child of the 80s (1981) came of age in the 90s. i wept when kurt died. his voice doesn't really remind me of Kurt in any way shape or form. He's doing it like jeff does and doing it well. I think you missed the mark mark on this one unless you can point something that I am forgetting. but judging by the fact that you don't have a heart makes your comment which he seems to hand out like Chiclets I'd say he doesn't think so either.

  • @jamirandreiagulto8778

    Oh comely
    I will be with you when you lose your breath
    Chasing the only
    Meaningful memory you thought you had left
    With some pretty bright and bubbly
    Terrible scene that was doing her thing on your chest
    But oh comely
    It isn't as pretty as you'd like to guess
    In your memory you're
    Drunk on your awe to me
    It doesn't mean anything at all
    Oh comely
    All of your friends are all letting you blow
    Bristling and ugly
    Bursting with fruits falling out from the holes
    Of some pretty bright and bubbly
    Friend you could need to say comforting things in your ear
    But oh comely
    There isn't such one friend that you could find
    Here standing next to me only my enemy
    I'll crush him with everything I own
    Say what you want to say hang for your hollow ways
    Moving your mouth to pull out all your miracle for me
    Your father made fetuses with flesh licking ladies
    While you and your mother were asleep in the trailer park
    Thunderous sparks from the dark of the stadiums
    The music and medicine you needed for comforting
    So make all your fat fleshy fingers to moving
    And pluck all your silly strings and bend all your notes for me
    Soft silly music is meaningful magical
    The movements were beautiful all in your ovaries
    All of them milking with green fleshy flowers
    While powerful pistons were sugary sweet machines
    Smelling of semen all under the garden was all you were needing
    When you still believed in me
    Say what you want to say and hang for your hollow ways
    Moving your mouth to pull out all your miracle for me
    I know they buried her body with others
    Her sister and mother and five hundred families
    And will she remember me fifty years later
    I wished I could save her in some sort of time machine
    Know all your enemies
    We know who our enemies are
    Know all your enemies
    We know who our enemies are
    Goldaline my dear
    We will fold and freeze together
    Far away from here
    There is sun and spring and green forever
    But now we move to feel
    For ourselves inside some strangers stomach
    Place your body here
    Let your skin begin to blend itself with mine
