for someone who typically goes full throttle on these covers…it’s cool to see you slow down and do a dark, chilling song like this and keeping that awesome edgy Leo vibe to it. well done, sir.
I saw the title and was concerned. I've tried covering Nirvana on countless occasions, and there's something magical about their songs that I have never been able to capture, and I've seen other musicians much more talented than me suffer the same issue. The concern was completely unwarranted. This cover brought the magic.
Love it Leo!!! Thank you, have a great weekend The Hollies - Long Cool Woman Golden Earring - Radar Love Michael Damian - Rock On Wire Train - I Will Not Fall Fleetwood Mac - The Chain
This. There is a short clip in one of the Nirvana live VHS tapes from back in the day of them playing this song SUPPPPPPPPPPPPPPER heavy for like 10 seconds and I was obsessed with that short clip and how the song sounded. THis is super close to how they sounded there
UA-cam hasn't been reccomending Leo as much as it should even though I've been subbed for years. The breakdown into a djent-meshuggah like scream into a quiet acoustic guitar hits harder than it should.
@@capp00 I've been following his channel since he covered Adele's "Hello" and have been a big fan ever since. He always keeps you on you toes as you never quite know what he'll do next or how he'll do it. Like this cover, he kept the beautiful and haunting overtone of the original with a bit more intensity without going full on screamo which is what I expecting when I clicked on the video. He's fantastic
Fun bit of trivia, in the original 1991 recording there is a cello that sounds a little bit off. The cello is not off, the rest of the instruments in the band were tunned to Kurt's guitar.... which was perpetually out of tune. Despite multiple "better" recordings of the song including the 1993 Unplugged recording existing the out-of-tune 1991 version generally gets used. It was also the version used in the 2020 batman trailer that put the song in its best-ever billboard rankings including a top 2 in the US for the first time.....29 years after it was recorded. Edit: I'm not so proud that I won't take advantage of this being a top comment Leo might read. "We kill the flame" - Leonard Cohen cover, please!! - Also not only was Kurt's guitar out of tune for that recording, but the tempo was also so off that Dave Grohl apparently had a really hard time applying the drum track. On the distant chance someone still reading this doesn't know who Dave Grohl is....google it for a treat.
@@michael5460 My babysitter played the MTV special for me back in 1993 when I was six. I can't say why but I remember that night so clearly and that track in particular really stood out for me.
This is one of my favorite Nirvana songs and I absolutely love your cover. One of the best I have ever heard. Definitely going to be listening to this a lot.
I sent a link for this to a friend and told him, "You need this in your life." His response was, "I did need that in my life." An amazing cover of an amazing song.
So damn good! Brings out the true anger that was seething inside of him. The breakdown was great and then the sudden silence is how it usually goes with those emotions. A mental explosion and then nothing but noise in the background
Merci infiniment je vous suit depuis longtemp est on ressent que vous gagnez en maturité en sagesse et en puissance sur une telle base qui est déjà magnifique on ressent ton talent qui s exprime alors merci beaucoup à vous Léo merci merci merci
This is amazing. Leo I can't wait for you to do another video with your daughter again the father daughter duo is so amazing. Your the best dad ever. That video gets played a lot here. As a musician myself your talents are stunning and as a producer editor again stunning.
This is so friggin good. I always loved this song, but also always wished the chorus was heavier. And your breakdown is perfect!! This fulfills my deepest desires! 🤘🤘
This is why I love your music not only do you give it that edge we love but you also respect the original. Now that covid regulations are gone why not come to the US for a tour. House of blues tour would be awesome.
Love everything you do. You’re an absolute legend my friend. If possible can I make a request for you to cover little big skibidi or mustache. Maybe both lol. I know with your touch it would be amazing.
This song is about something getting in the way of whatever one's goals are. Cobain's obstacles are different from what hinders Bruce, but the song works in the world Reeves is building because Bruce himself stands in the way of the symbol he wants Batman to be.

Mama - Genesis is another where he scales it back. Same with his cover of In The Air Tonight.
@@Qmocean oh indeed, I agree.
Reminds me of when he did Daydreaming
Yeah what he said
Do a cover

I've seen Seether play like a 45 minute set of nothing but Nirvana songs.... It was absolutely amazing.
It's the beauty of simplicity
That magic? It's called heroin.
I really think he could have this. I seen the other band do it. He needs to take it down 1 notch and add a female angelic voice in the back.
If Kurt was here he would know what to do
Someone watched the new Batman? What do you wanna hear next? Let me know in the comments:)

the song that never ends by sherri lewis
This song was a HUGE influence in my teens. This cover is EXACTLY what it needed. Easily one of your best work. Easily.

How much metal do you want in your nirvana cov-
Leo: yes
All of it

Damn, that was fantastic. Cranked it up, but not over the top and kept the same style vibe. Well done man!
Never expected to run into one of my favorites 7 days to die UA-camrs on a frog leap studios video.
@@dinomitegaming2193 Love Leo. Been following him for years. And also, thank you :)

@@petervanwinden3953 Sup!!
Best Nirvana cover I've ever heard besides Seether and it's on par with them especially cause you made it your own
Seether and Manson do sikkk covers... and Leo

👍
can you play House of memories - Panic! at the disco next pleas
Dude, that is awesome, its one of my favortie Nirvana song's....

Nirvanas softest heaviest song loved how kept close to the original and threw your spin on it at the end perfect
I'm so happy to see this song cone back after almost 30yrs. I hope the sound design team for The Batman get an award.
This song was also used in a Last of Us trailer
@@traviscue2099 good to know. I never got to play that one.
@@forcestrong1448 the song suits the game quiet well. Very millencolin
@@traviscue2099 phenomenal game, and a phenomenal movie. That automatically makes it a brilliant song
Love this cover and the original. Respect.
Love the slow sludge dirty feel to this. Man you absolutely nailed it.
Nothing In The Way of Leos Talent ...
KEEP IT HEAVY
KEEP IT METAL
hahah
lithium cover hahah
3:48 Whoa that is a good track! I want hear a longer version.
Isn’t it just. I need a longer version in my life
Seriously, everything this guy does is amazing! Brilliant!!!
I love this guy. I haven’t found a song I haven’t liked yet.
YOU have a way of refreshing soooo many songs. I love your gift and the fact that you share this.Thanks Big Leo
this one is serious wow awesome job
This song was written for Leo. Absolutely perfect
That outro song deserves a full version!
As usual 😄🤘🔥
IT's a little bit NEW NOISE from Refused but I like it.
Leo, make a Refused - New Noise Cover. PLEASE
@@buddybumbul4667 +1
Awesome 👍
Came here to say just that! Yes, please!
Okay, just me, but one primal screem "SOMETHING IN THE WAY!" man then closing, to me that would have been the Ultimate closer
You never cease to impress Leo. Love it.
one of the best cover ever holy moly
This is one of my favorite Nirvana songs and I absolutely love your cover. One of the best I have ever heard. Definitely going to be listening to this a lot.
My new favorite song! Please come to Minneapolis Minnesota !
This song always gets me. Lot of memories of my youth. U brought a tear to my eye with this. Thank you sir.
Something in my eye.
THIS song.... 😔 one if my favs. And Leo nailed it. I love it. I can't stop listening to all his covers. Every single day.
One of my favorite Nirvana songs. Did it justice.
Goosebumps all over!!! Kurt would be proud.
Love it... the mood, the lighting, everything just pretty much nailed it.
I sent a link for this to a friend and told him, "You need this in your life." His response was, "I did need that in my life." An amazing cover of an amazing song.
So damn good! Brings out the true anger that was seething inside of him. The breakdown was great and then the sudden silence is how it usually goes with those emotions. A mental explosion and then nothing but noise in the background
Damn bro, cold chills when you screamed. Love it
Phenomenal cover per usual
Its great to see the difference between when you love a song and when you are just f*cking around. Top shelf.
This is astonishingly dark and good. DAMN. Brilliant cover.
Outro is just beautiful
as the video
sadly, I bought this tape when it was new, but have since lost it.
This cover is simply badass btw, great work
Lifelong fan of Nirvana and this song in particular very much approves of this rendition, so good!
Frog Leap Studios dropping these 🔥 covers is the best part of my Friday nights 🐸🐰🎸🥁🤘🏽
Здоров, Земеля!
Приятно узнать, что я не один, из русскоязычных, подписан на Лео
man, they usually come out around 11am here. I have all afternoon to enjoy this on repeat. lol
It's like 8:30am for me.
Merci infiniment je vous suit depuis longtemp est on ressent que vous gagnez en maturité en sagesse et en puissance sur une telle base qui est déjà magnifique on ressent ton talent qui s exprime alors merci beaucoup à vous Léo merci merci merci
Kurt would be proud.
Kurt would sing along from his grave
He'd probably be alive if he didn't marry.
@@chrisbrumbaugh9936 You're right🎯
No, Kurt would be embarrassed, he sucked compared to this guy.
Kurt would be too busy eating a bowl of Mac n cheese if he were alive still
Getting huge Chimera Vibes at the breakdown of the song loving it all
This song was used perfectly in the new Batman movie, and your version would have been even more perfect in it too.
I once saw nirvana do this song super hard live... my band covered it that way for years because of it. Its got such great dynamics.
After this fantastic cover, i somehow wish for a cover of Snuff by Slipknot.
Yes!
Actually was thinking that the other day as well
Absolutely the best cover of Nirvanas best song
Was surprised to see this particular song covered, but happily blown away regardless. Rock on dude!
This is amazing. Leo I can't wait for you to do another video with your daughter again the father daughter duo is so amazing. Your the best dad ever. That video gets played a lot here. As a musician myself your talents are stunning and as a producer editor again stunning.
The best, sou um fã do Brasil
The Metal Genius stikes again!!! Well done @Leo Moracchioli!!!
when the gray days of grunge collided with Leo's mind... excellent cover Leo! wel done revival of a great music anthem!
Can't believe you're coming to Poland, Gdansk in June. See you there. Rock on!
This is so friggin good. I always loved this song, but also always wished the chorus was heavier. And your breakdown is perfect!! This fulfills my deepest desires! 🤘🤘
...this is the best version of this track I've ever heard !!! (wooo !!! endtrack mega cool too Metall & ElectronicSpaceSamples its beautif!!!)
amazing !!!
I love this beginning part
Avatar also does a great metal version of this song! Keep rocking Leo!
Avatar's cover absolutely slays!!!
THIS is Sooooooo Powerful
OMG - this is just freaking awesome! You just always keep bringing it! Love this Leo = Happy FriYAY, Cheers to the weeken'd!
Bravo Leo!
Outstanding man, great cover. Any chance you can cover Two princes by the Spin Doctors as I think you will make a masterpiece out of it
This was an awesome cover. Spin doctors would rock, they have such a good rhythm section and a good drummer
I'd appreciate that!
Ohhh, nice one!
Or Little Miss Can't Be Wrong would also be amazing!
Good idea
This is why I love your music not only do you give it that edge we love but you also respect the original. Now that covid regulations are gone why not come to the US for a tour. House of blues tour would be awesome.
Great cover leo! keep the good work
Leo, you absolutely nailed it again.
This is a solid 10 ! You did a awesome job 🤘
Wow!!! Just wow!!! To add his touch to a landmark song...haunting and very beautiful leo!!! Please do Come and Get your love by Resbone
Прям в душу залез! Ковер ОГОНЬ 🔥!!! От всего сердца благодарю за твоё творчество! Желаю всех благ!!!
New favorite song! Kurt would love this!
Nice cover ! Especially during the verse, your voice sounds like the same as Kurt's.
my favourit song of nirvana, well done... very well... thanks, Leo.
Love everything you do. You’re an absolute legend my friend. If possible can I make a request for you to cover little big skibidi or mustache. Maybe both lol. I know with your touch it would be amazing.
One of my favorites
Good Cover
Man. You are the best. Please come to Portugal to do a show.
С уважением и любовью из России, Лео, твои каверы шикарны. Душа поёт!
Абсолютли))
Go fill your president with lead
Полностью поддерживаю!!!
This song is about something getting in the way of whatever one's goals are. Cobain's obstacles are different from what hinders Bruce, but the song works in the world Reeves is building because Bruce himself stands in the way of the symbol he wants Batman to be.
Спасибо за кавер, очень сильно👍🤘!!!
Love this song. “Leo mode” does it justice 🤘
Legend says Leo pin and heart early comments
You are a unique Master of Mood. Thank you for this dark beauty.
GooD Лайк 🙂🎷👍
So true to the song, love it.
I feel like you can kill Metallica's Bleeding me. In this same style as you did to this song. Would be epic to the max!
@@chatterboxartproductions8138 no leaf absolutely!
Yeah! Bleeding Me!
rarely, so rarely, you come across a cover that is better than the original. Love this!
Как бы я хотел увидет совместный ковер тебя и нашего российского RADIO TAPOK... Просто очень :(
О, тут есть свои.
Было бы здорово.
More than a cover, nice feeling, heavy break, good good good
Сильно!😯👍
Oooh that palm muted picking during the second verse sounded amazing. Great cover. My favorite song on that album from day 1
С медведем слушаем уже третий раз. Ему очень нравится
Something in the way you played this just hit me on a whole other level, man. Thanks for putting out all these great covers.
за выбор 5/5, за исполнение 6+
Loving the ballad style- more of this please!!!
That's the Leo we grew to love. Amazing job!!!
Leo
Thank you. I enjoy your work. Something about the quality of metal has always moved me and you do it well.
wow, that was strong. catharsive in its deepest and cleanest nature. thnx.
Fabulosa versión!!
U da man Leo...love from new Zealand
Dude is a genius
