Cover art for The Man Who Sold the World (David Bowie cover) lyrics by Nirvana

Isnt this a cover?

Yes, it's Bowie. Unfortunately, also, there are far more comments on Nirvana's cover than Bowie's original here on Songmeanings. I love Nirvana, I really do, but that's a tad ridiculous.

whats so ridiculous about this song...?? its not like hes saying that he can do this song better than bowie... its more like a tribute cuz no one is this world dead or living can do it as good as bowie....

I like Kurt's version more. Always have. Much like his his Meat Puppets covers. There's just something about the way he sings them. Kind if like Marilyn Manson's cover of Sweet Dreams. There's just something to them I like more.
