Video: Buskers on Grafton Street perform awesome cover of a Nirvana classic

Come As You Are.

Joe Harrington

Come As You Are.

People who cover iconic songs always run the risk of messing up badly and being ridiculed for their attempt (See Ronan Keating’s version of Fairytale of New York).

Nirvana have been covered countless times down through the years and hardcore fans of the band have high standards so if you do it, do it well.

These two buskers on Grafton Street decided to take on Nirvana’s Come As You Are and they funked it up a little. Have a listen.

We think it sounds deadly and we plan on throwing the lads a few bob the next time we see them playing on the street.
