Can anyone tell me if this is in some alternate tuning or am I just going crazy?

It sounds pretty close, but my E just doesnt sound right...and the F# and B that he starts with sound way off?

I don't get the question - is there something we're supposed to listen to?

I played along with it.

Standard tuning down one semitone. I got Eb, Ab and Bb for the three chords he's using with a Gm thrown in during the choruses

Or you could capo on 1 and play D, G and A with F#m in the choruses if you weren't too worried about the exact voicing.
