I heard some of this yesterday and was cracking up. Has anyone heard any of this? Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit was especially funny to me!

I saw this on something, might have been ET. I couldn't believe it. He was singing Van Halen's classic song, Jump, as a big band song.

It just doesn't work. Sorry Paul.

I've seen him on TV promoting the album. He said he wanted to find great songs that worked really well in the style. He didn't want to make a gimmick album. But from what I've heard of the album, it is so gimmicky it's ridiculous! I think it all sounds terrible! How embarrassing for Paul Anka!
