Kanye West's "Sunday Service" choir sings iconic Nirvana songs with Christian lyrics

Every week, Kanye West hosts exclusive "Sunday Service" worship gatherings in Southern California for celebs and bigwigs. At yesterday's service, West's choir covered Nirvana's "Come As You Are" and "Smells Like Teen Spirit" but rewritten with Christian lyrics. I wouldn't ordinarily presume to know what Kurt Cobain would or wouldn't appreciat e, but my bet is he would have frowned upon this and/or laughed hysterically. From Uproxx:

In the new version of Come As You Are, some of the lyrics include, Just confess, hell do the rest, Christ is here hallelujah. Meanwhile, the chorus of Smells Like Teen Spirit was changed to, Let your light shine, its contagious, here we are now, inspiration.

(Thanks, Gil Kaufman!) Read the rest
