Notes
The guitar riff of Boston's '76 hit has an extraordinary similarity to Smells Like Teen Spirit, which is easily heard on the '92 Reading Festival, as Nirvana plays it just before Smells Like Teen Spirit.
Two different recordings exist: one with 'clean' sound (I believe it's a soundboard recording), but Kurt's lyrics can't be heard on that one. The other recording have a more rough sound (probably analog audience), but this includes the vocals.

Lyrics
08/30/92 - Reading Festival
More than a feeling
when I hear that old song they used to play
More than a feeling
when I hear that old song they used to play
The original as it was performed by Boston
I looked out this morning and the sun was gone
Turned on some music to start my day
I lost myself in a familiar song
I closed my eyes and I slipped away
It's more than a feeling, when I hear that old song they used to play (more than a feeling)
And I begin dreaming (more than a feeling)
'till I see Marianne walk away
I see my Marianne walkin' away
So many people have come and gone
Their faces fade as the years go by
Yet I still recall as I wander on
as clear as the sun in the summer sky
It's more than a feeling, when I hear that old song they used to play (more than a feeling)
And I begin dreaming (more than a feeling)
'till I see Marianne walk away
I see my Marianne walkin' away
When I'm tired and thinking cold
I hide in my music, forget the day
and dream of a girl I used to know
I closed my eyes and she slipped away
She slipped away
It's more than a feeling, when I hear that old song they used to play (more than a feeling)
And I begin dreaming (more than a feeling)
'till I see Marianne walk away
