oooo 
Got to see these guys live a couple of years ago - they are killer! Highly recommended, and they are entertaining too, beyond the music.
Just because you can doesn't mean you should.

Nope

There's a reason this wasn't originally written for cello...
further demonstrates the fundamental awfulness of this melody.
Just because you can play Nirvana on 2 Cellos, doesn't mean you should!
Nah.

Another regular Ikea customer.
Robert Gaspar does a very cool, jazzy version of this song.   
Adds nothing to the original but then again, the original did nothing for me either. 
About 20 years ago buskers in Central Park and elsewhere started playing Metal and Grunge using classical instrumentation. Those buskers, at least here in New York, were much better than this. 
What?!
I play cello. I respect Nirvana. And yet this is one of the things on RP that I absolutely loathe. 
STAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP
I like cellos. I like Nirvana. I like Nirvana playing the cello (on their live album) -- but I just don't like this. {#Ask}
Didn't think anything could be worse than the original....I was SO wrong. PSD
Just not necessary....
As I heard this track I got some ideas for furthe pretty good cover-bands:

Driving Mrs Satan
Nouvelle Vague

Apocalyptica

On point, why the didn`t playing also the original versions?


ready for a elevator near you
They're really talented; I couldn't do this, but the novelty's worn off.
And their videos are solid cheese. Maybe runny cheese.
oh.. this is wrong
Mom music
ID rather than Nirvana.

Rock 'n Roll cellos.  Who would have ever thought it?

 
Just about anyone who played the cello-like me!
Along this same line, check out the Morgaua Quartet's version of ELP's Still . . . You Turn Me On.  They've carved out a whole niche for themselves giving the classical treatment to Pink Floyd, Yes, ELP, Crimson, etc.

 

 


Rock 'n Roll cellos.  Who would have ever thought it?
Well done, but I will always prefer Apocalyptica over those two guys.
best version outside of the original, RIP Kurt.
