21st Century Breakdown, American Idiot and Dookie. I have time with no listening to them
Wow, this transports me back to 1994 where my brother and I would listen the Green Day Dookie album and Nirvana Nevermind album during our long car rides but this video made me feel like I’m in an alternate reality where the two albums blended into one.

How is it that you're able to not only make a style shift sound good but honestly so believable? Once again, nicely done!

Which British accent would that be then? English? Scottish or welsh?
I picked: - Longview: drums/bass + song structure - Holiday: drums and bass really remind me of the outro (the "heys" and the "woooo" also are very American Idiot era) - Hitchin' a Ride: syncopated palm-muted guitar + drums and bass also remind me of the chorus

I thought this was going to be various artists covering American Idiot but I love the 90s Green Day vibe since the bass being reminiscent of Longview and the guitar with Hitchin' A Ride, awesome as always brother and I just pre-saved it

Lithium definitely sounds like it’s from Nimrod. Also, I like how the Hitchin a Ride sounds are in this remix. It sounds very cool.
After seeing a flood of terrible "if this band wrote this song" videos lately, all created using A.I. (and failing horribly), I gotta say... you pretty much nailed it. This is the first time I have seen any of your videos, but I will definitely check out some more of your stuff. Nice work!
Nailed it. This song is more of a natural Green Day song than a Nirvana song, this was always gonna work!!
This is actually insanely fuckin good & legit sounds like Green Day playing Lithium. I'd listen to this on the regular
Hell yeah man! As usual, you did a perfect job! 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻

I'm obsessed with your "If ___ wrote ___" series. They are always so DEAD style-wise on and legit just amazing tracks. I wish bands really made more of an attempt to cover songs in their own style. Whenever they do it's absolute crack, like Gnarls Barkley's cover of Radiohead's Reckoner. I could listen to stuff like that all day.
Love this. Green Day actually covers "Drain You".
i am so glad you made a full version! you should be really proud of the voice mimicking. this is an amazing talent.
This one is particularly good because it needs subtlety....the original is already a pop / punk fusion to start with. Lots of nice little touches .. the bass line, harmony vocals, and the changes in rhythm. Kudos. 👍
I remembered when you did the short version of this and i wanted a full version! THANK YOU MAN THIS IS AMAZING!!!

Green Day is my favorite band, I've seen them live twice. This guy's Billie Joe Armstrong impression is a 10/10. I gotta see Steve do 'If American Idiot was written by 13 different bands' video
Now I wonder how Polly (or some other "slower" song by Nirvana) would sound if it was part of The Offspring's first album. Great work, as usual!

The choirs on the choruses are freaking epic. Well done!
Dude, this is insanely good!! Literally two of my favorite bands mashed into one!!
Let’s gooo this was one of the best ones, Smashing pumpkins rocket queen next?
didn't think we'd get a full version so this made my day
Wow this fits so incredibly well. Once again, I'm blown away!
Absolutely amazing cover, I loved how many sounds from different Green Day songs made it into this one arrangement, Longview and Holiday were definitely the most notable ones but I kept noticing moments that felt distinctly like points from all over their discography. Satisfyingly full guitar sound, impressively accurate vocals, great reconstruction of Green Day's sound while still staying true to the melody and chords of the original.

Hey thanks so much! You’re spot on and I worked in a similar hitchin a ride snare shuffle to the second verse to add some more flare amongst other bits.
Thank you! I've been hoping you'd make this for a long time, and it was so worth the wait! I'm very excited to see what else you do in the future!
Great job! You nailed it. And just goes to show the mark of a well -written song ( like most Beatles songs, for example) is that it will still sound great in any style you play it.
It’s 3:25am, and my dog’s watching me bop around to this like WTF are you doing? 😂 Loved it! Man, you’ve got Billie Joe’s voice down flat. And that bass line, instantly recognizable as Green Day. You can always tell when a song is excellent, you can change genres, pacing etc and it’s still flipping awesome. Lithium has always been my favorite Nirvana track. I miss the 90’s so much. 🖤
I remember when I heard this on your other video if 12 band covered Nirvana's Nevermind album. This is spot on with sounding like Green day and Your voice impersonation of Dave Mustain was also spot on too. I look forward to hearing the full versions of all the songs you covered on your other video
Wow! That was a great cover Steve! Takes me right back. You rock! 🤘
ずっとフルバ一ジョン待ってました!!ありがとうございます🙇
Loving these full versions, keep 'em coming!
Terrific. I love how little you had to change the bass line!
These mashups are so good.. keep going.
That was amazing! Im really impressed. Great production all round.
Great, you really get the mood of the bands! Very very good!!! And you are a top musician voice and chords!
WOW! You took me back when I was a young lad having Green day and nirvana in the same mix tape, this cover Is really good! Cheers!
Yoooooooooooooo, That was SO cool~! I absolutely loved it; can't wait for more from ya!
phenomenal. a punk rock cover with perfect mixing, awesome vocals and it's on spotify so i can keep listening to that banger whilst supporting you. doing god's work my guy, keep up the sick covers
Just when I thought "Some 'hey's and it would be perfect" I heard you scream "Hey! Hey! Hey!..." in the background! 😅 well done!! Love it! 😊
Excellent job! It has the style of Longview, Hitchin' A Ride and Holiday.
Longview + Hitchin a Ride + Holiday vibes. Great video as always.
So glad i stumbled across this. Brilliant 😊
This is crazy damn good! You nailed it, a piece of perfection , has the deepest spirit of both bands in it 🎉
Lithium has been my favorite song off all time for good 7 years now. And I must confess this is really well done! Keep it up bro!
@Stevewelsh_ really great job on this video. A lot of hard work went into this and I appreciate it. I’m looking forward to seeing what else you. One up with. I’d love to see what you do with other punk bands.
This is so so good!! Been waiting ever since you released the nirvana in the style of other bands vid !! Keep up the good work
This is so awesome! I’d love to see a full version of the RHCP version of breed. Great stuff!
This is definitely one of the very very best "what if" songs I've ever heard! Love it!
Soooo spot on! Great job on this!
This is awesome. No specific suggestion or request on what to do next, I just request you do a lot more of what you're doing. 👍
Another banger from another dimension Steve!! I'm so stoked you got the GD sound of the early 90s and apply it soo smoothly to Kurt's stuff, remarkable!
First time checking out a video, and I picked a great one. This was PHENOMENAL
This is absolutely incredible. The concept, production and performance is faultless.
You are scary-good at this. My friends & I used to screw around with this kind of stuff during practice (a favorite was an Enter Sandman/Beat It mix we called Enter Michael Jackson), but you've made it its own art form.
The drums!! Man this whole thing is perfect 👏👏👏
Awesome cover of this classic Foo Fighters song! Well done 🔥🎸
This was a fun listen. Thank you!
Amazing, sounds exactly like Green Day
This is amazing! You are very talented. Wow
Wow! Absolutely excellent! I hear a lot of Hitchin' a Ride in this. That whole album was way underrated.
Sooooo good. Please keep up the 1990's punk. And grunge (the NOFX style of Drain You was fantastic).
I'm so thankful you did this so awesome!
I usually hate these videos but the video and music were perfect and well arranged. Great job!
THANK YOU ive been waiting for this
This pisses me off....that I'm just NOW discovering your channel. Great stuff duder!
This is amazing work. Nice... very nice.
This is a great concept for cover bands. I honestly don't know why anyone has never thought to do this as an act on stage.
This is spot on! Thanks for creating this.
Well done bro. Pretty much everything you do is sick!
very happy to finally see a full version of this cover :D
Ive been waiting for thiss, thank you!
Yes!!! Was waiting for this one!
Wow! another beautiful Lithium version...Great Job!
dude this sounds so great!
You’re so entertaining! I love this!!!✊
Absolutely spot on, like always. Favorite Green Day album is Insomniac, but American Idiot was very solid as well.
This is absolutely brilliant! 😍👏
