"Love Buzz" is a song by Dutch rock band Shocking Blue. It was written by Robbie van Leeuwen and first released on the group's 1969 album At Home. The original song is notable for its psychedelic rock style and its extensive use of the sitar, played by Leeuwen. The intro sample on the original single comes from the LP Monster Shindig featuring Snooper and Blabber (Hanna-Barbera productions 1965).
American rock band Nirvana recorded a cover version of the song for it's 1988 debut single, released on Sub Pop in the USA. It was described by Sub Pop as being "heavy pop sludge." The version recorded by Sub Pop was chosen for the feature soundtrack on 1990 skateboarding video Board Crazy. From: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love_Buzz
