If we're being technical, the Elvis Presley version wasn't commercially available until the reissue in like 2008. It was on the advance promo copies sent for review, but was completely removed before the album was commercially released. So in theory he should have to go with the non-Elvis version.

Jorge seems like a man of principle who would want to respect the rules in their purest form.

Per Wikipedia's article, with a reference to an interview for Circus magazine -
"Cobain said that the song's chorus of "Hey/Wait/I've got a new complaint" was him giving an example of how he was perceived by the media."

Internet boards existed back then. They were called a BBS (Bulletin board system). Fun fact from us old Internet geeks.

Jar of Flies is a stunningly beautiful album, and just about every song is a classic. But this one was always my favorite. I rarely listen to AiC anymore, but I'll still seek this one out.

I'm fine with Platy's version of that song unless someone comes up with a good reason why he can't have it.

It's doesn't really matter either way, BigRed's already won this thing.
