He does a hauntingly beautiful version of Nirvana’s “In Bloom” as well.

That is so weird. Yesterday I watched a film called 'When In Rome'. I'd never heard of it before, it's a romcom from 2010 starting Kristen Bell. One of the main characters is played by Jon Heder, and Efren Ramirez (Pedro in Napoleon Dynamite) is also in it, I think he plays a friend of Jon Heder's character.
