Despite the fact that "Smells Like Teen Spirit" is basically the "Stairway to Heaven" of grunge — many a high school garage band has taken a crack at it — it's hard to imagine anybody but Kurt Cobain doing the song justice. But traditional Korean gayageum player Luna Lee has restored all hope for '90s covers with her breathtakingly unique version of the hit Nirvana song. The ancient stringed instrument on which Luna performs sounds ethereal and eerie, yet distinctly grungy when playing the all-too-familiar chords. Give it a listen — you'll want a gayageum version of all your favorite rock songs!
