Video: Nirvana Doesn’t Debut New Song, But…

WWST? (What would Scientologists think?) Trench coats and cardigan sweaters meet mosh pits and anarchy symbols pasted to cheerleaders' tits: Rickrolling with Kurt Cobain & Tha Crew...

So we're in a YouTube mood today, sue us. But it just occurred that since we're now into October, a lot of long lead-time magazines and critics are compiling their 2009 year-end best-ofs. Admittedly, that's borderline absurd; there are some awesome releases about to drop in late Oct. and early Nov., so how can you make your annual picks this early? (Trust us; we've had to do it ourselves, so we feel your pain, fellow scribes.) But we digress.

At any rate, since we're posting Thom Yorke and Bruce Springsteen vids to the BLURT site (now THERE is a mashup waiting to happen... "Born In The Paranoid Android," anyone?), and we have some spare time before leaving for our Monday morning pedicure, we decided to also post our hands-down, no-debate-necessary, favorite video of the past year, below. In the rare event that you didn't nab the MP3 first time around - the song originally appeard on DJ Morgoth's Mash-Up Your Bootz Vol. 4 album - or are not among the million-plus who have viewed the clip already, it should still be self-explanatory.

All props to DJ Morgoth for the music, along with YouTube maestro thriftshopxl for posting the video clip back in the summer, and making our lives immeasurably richer.

Seriously. This is pure genius. Keep on Rickrolling. "Never Gonna Give Your Teen Spirit Up":
