Like two years ago, I listen for the first time ''The man who sold the world'' by Nirvana (it was a MTV Unplugged) and I knew it wasn't an original song from them but i didn't look up for the original version... until yesterday. It's a pretty amazing song written and performed by David Bowie from the '70s. The Kurt Cobain version is sadder (obviously?) than David Bowie's, this one it's more weird and, I don't know, danceable. However, both versions have that cool riff that is basically the best thing in my iPod.
So yes, David Bowie sold the world... first.
