Back in the day, my gf had a crush on Kurt. Lots of people did, he was a good looking dude. A lot of the time, his hair was in his face and she couldn't see his eyes. So when the moment happened at the end of the song when he opened up his eyes wide with that burning intensity, her crush turned into an obsession. She told me that the vhs she recorded the show on had a spot worn on it, due to her constant rewatching of that section. I would recommend the live version of Aneurysm (live at The Paramount) it's one of my favorites.
This is a folk song that they don't know when it was originally written. It's very likely hundreds of years old. And has been sung by blues men, folk singers and then Nirvana.
MTV can’t do concerts like this anymore because 90% of top 40 music is auto tuned and the “artists” don’t play instruments or even write their own songs. These concerts were a look inside the genius of the bands who made and appreciated great music and songs.
This is my favourite Nirvana performance EVER! I was so pleased when 'Nirvana Unplugged' was released as an album. This is IMO the best song on there, even though it was a cover - Kurt's voice & charisma took it to a whole new level - the way he gasped & looked up in the last line - haunting, brings me to tears every time.... Kurt was a gentle but troubled soul who hated fame; I was deeply affected by his tragic death, but what a wonderful legacy he left us........I wish he'd got to see his daughter grow up. R.I.P. Kurt Cobain 💔 PS the song is over 100 years old - recorded under different titles including 'In The Pines' and 'Black Girl' - Leadbelly recorded it in the 1940's. I think it will always be Kurt's song now due to this performance🖤
This whole show was electrifying and iconic. Hard to believe just months after this performance Kurt was gone :( R.I.P. Kurt Superb reaction Lilly Jane!
My favorite live song by Nirvana is”Breed” is from the Paramount. Is all over TH-cam…easy to find. Loud and fast and shows them as they really were in concert
I logged in just to compliment you on your legit reaction. Your face is so emotional listening to this song. Also I love your hair it's awesome. Keep up the vids.
You should see really old vids of the speed metal band he was in called scream. Dave was such an incredible drummer he may of actually dumbed himself down to play nirvana.
Kurt was really coming into his own as an artist I mean the entire unplugged is FANTASTIC such a shame that we lost him I imagine what else he could and would of done!😢😢
I was curious about this so I went and looked up the in the pines phrase for metaphorical meaning. Back when this song was likely written, it was a reference to women who for whatever reason just left their lives behind and ran off. Considering the Courtney Love relationship, it seems likely that that's what Kurt was referring to.
Been so long since I've heard this one and it brings back some strong feels. Over 20 years ago, in High School, my gf was completely obsessed with Kurt, so for her birthday I performed this for her. Did the melody on my bass guitar, sang (poorly), and did it all nude with only the guitar covering up any potential distractions. She enjoyed it, so much that I barely was given a chance to put down my guitar before she dragged me off. Simpler times.
@@TenTonNuke 17 year old boys aren't known for their critical thinking skills, especially when girls are involved. She ended up getting me expelled instead of breaking up a year or so later, so, like I said, simpler times.
as someone who saw MTV from 1984 on...i miss MTV! remote control, headbangers ball, pimp my ride, jackass. They didnt seem like the good old days at the time.
Good old days that they were mate. I miss the 80''s and 90's so so much, good time to be alive. We'll never experience anything remotely like it again.
@@dertodesking. maybe you should look again. It’s half and half. 14 tracks, 7 of their songs and 7 covers. It has About a Girl, Come As You Are, Pennyroyal Tea, Polly, Dumb, Something In the Way and All Apologies…those are all Nirvana songs.
This was their last televised performance as a band. And at the end where he takes a pause and deep breath and stares into the camera, it was almost a goodbye from Kurt. And then to follow that with the belt/yodel he did is just absolutely heartbreaking
I don't know why people keep thinking this was their last tv show cause it wasn't. They did the MTV news years live and loud show 3 weeks after this and did the French TV show appearance in February
RIP to Kurt Cobain he was a legend we lost him to soon The part when he takes a breath and opens his eyes wide his eyes are like a portal to his soul I got lost 💜💜💜💜💜
Ah, the early 90’s. What a great time it was to be young and into music. If only I would have known where music was going, I might have done something to stop it.
Thanx from France. To me their best perfomance was recorded (my point of view) on the "LIVE AND LOUD" in Seattle, 1993. Where you'll also find The man who sold the world (David Bowie cover) "plugged version". And Pat Smear (peroxyded blond hair) gives a real help to Kurt for guitar parts. I was 11 when I first discovered Nirvana in 1992 : And for me Kurt is probably the last "rock super star", like Hendrix or Jim Morrison. That was an other world also (I know I talk like a boomer ^^) ! Goodvibes. And afterthat that was a great entry in the music world, also with the beginnigs of hip-hop, trip-hop, techno and drum and bass. And so a great period in music history PS : Finally I have tons of vynils because I became DJ in french freeparties of the late 90's-earlyY2K's ! With the oldschool MIDI home-studio (no PC)... You ll be nostalgic too in 2040 I can tell you that ;-P
This is actually my favorite live performance, but “the man who stole the world“ is so beautiful. Also unplugged. It’s a cover that was done by David Bowie. I was a teenager when videos or everything and unplugged was the bomb. I think we should start a petition to MTV to bring it back! Great reaction❤✌️🔥
Since you asked about Nirvana live stuff. I have couple recommendations. Nirvana-Drain You live at the paramount, Nirvana-All Apologies from Live and Loud 93, and finally Nirvana-School live from Reading 1992.
The Pines is a literal place. The southern U.S. particularly Georgia. Miles and miles and miles of pine trees. So many cryptid stories and ghost stories and actual murders.
@@ca9968 That may be true (that Courtney Love is/was a 304) but in Cobain's suicide note he said of her "I have a goddess of a wife who sweats ambition and empathy". It is possible (though unlikely) the suicide note was planted.
Same MTV Unplugged, personal favorites go-to are "Jesus Don't Want Me for a Sunbeam" and "Lake of Fire" lyrically and vocally and musically. Speaking of, MTV (Music Television) is nowadays, and has been for a long while now, the History Channel of music. Also, Nirvana song of "Oh Me" 🎤
You just need to watch the entire Live & Loud Concert from 1993 in Seattle. Effin amazing performance start to finish. The energy and performances were off the chain.
Pines are trees, they're a type of evergreen tree that doesn't have leaves. Instead, they have these green needles, they call them needles. Also known as conifer trees, which is the genome, or species.
So crazy you did a reaction video to this. Most people don't know he did this cover. The original was incredible too. I'm curious how you heard about it. Also notice not a single person in the crowd is watching through a cell phone. Back when you lived the moment instead of recording it.
MTV started as a 24/hr cable channel where current music videos would be played in 1981... it revolutionized the music industry as the 80's began. Artists had to be visually captivating in that era, as well as make cutting-edge music... a lot of 70's artists didn't have the 'look' and went into decline in the 80's because they didn't fit the MTV format and radio was not as effective at selling records as before. MTV also got into the business of promoting artists live in concert and biographies, and then 'MTV Unplugged' came as an idea that artists should have the opportunity to play their songs acoustically... Rapper L.L. Cool J. was the first rap artist to do that show w/ a live band instead of a DJ. The changes came in the 90's after Nirvana broke big in 1991... the 80's trends came to an abrupt end, and 90's artists were either rap/ hip hop or grunge/ alternative rock... it was the antithesis of the 80's scene, where music was supposed to be authentic. But by 1995, the lack of visual artists had MTV searching for other mediums... 'Beavis and Butthead' was the MTV animated show that created controversy, and that was the start of MTV trickling away from 24/7 music videos and focus on artists, to more entertainment... 'The Real World' was one of the first reality TV shows in the 90's, and that broke big long before 'American Idol' and 'Survivor' became a trend. The quest for ratings by the late 90's began to subvert MTV away from music videos (which was in decline) and put more non-music programming, like reality TV and animated adult cartoons. In the early 2000's, MTV had sporadic success w/ music video shows like 'TRL' (Total request Live) where artists would make appearances... but it was dominated by rap & hip hop artists in the decade, and by 2008, rating were falling. It was tough to make music stars on MTV w/ the internet making access to people so much wider newer artists just did not have the draw of 80's icons like Michael Jackson, Madonna, Prince and George Michael. TH-cam had launched and music videos were playable on demand on the net, and MTV was losing that rating war... and shows playing music videos were not drawing viewers any more. So in late 2008, the decision was made to end 'TRL' and once that was over, MTV had moved out of the music video platform and focused on shows that they could sell. That was the end of MTV's music video era. Even the 'side' music channel VH1 had moved away from promoting classic videos and focused on non-music entertainment, like reality TV and talk shows. The music video format was just not sustainable w/ record sales plummeting in the 2000's because of downloading (now streaming) platforms, and the money made in the music industry had dried up.
The Pines were the pine and cypress swamps that were the only refuge for slaves that ran because the dogs could not track them in the swamps... this comes from historical data...such a powerful song!!!!!!!
my first lisening Nirvana song Scentless Apprentice my favorite if you here more scream listen this Nirvana - Scentless Apprentice ( MTV Live And Loud, Seattle / 1993 )
If you want to look into someone's soul stop video at 6:24. Kurt started the whole grunge movement. I remembered where I was the first time I heard Nirvana and also when Kurt died. Another one lost way too young.
“Kurt had a real connection to the song as he was performing it”… Absolutely AGREE. I feel like this was his way of telling his wife Courtney and the world: I know my wife’s being unfaithful and she’s broken my heart. (Kurt’s wife actually didn’t attend this gig, because he had this song in the set list.)
Great job with your reaction to Were Did You Sleep Last Night live performance from Nirvana . It's still sad this would be one of Kurt Cobain RIP last public appearances and shows l do believe.
Couple of points on *MTV Unplugged* artists would come & play their hits acoustically, *Nirvana* turned that on its head they didn't play any of their own music. Oh & that *$500,000 Leadbelly* guitar would be *$1Million* in *2022.* So it should be pointed out the guitar *Kurt* is playing sold for *$6Million*
He was in the moment when he belted out those screams. I heard recently while this concert was going on that Courtney was out doing her job. We know what her job/jobs detailed at the time.
Watched this in 94 when it aired, it was like a kick in the b*lls when he took his own life. Seeing this hurts so bad knowing that he had a huge future if he could have gotten away from the drugs.
singing the black man's blues, you want to find out check out Leadbelly's where did you sleep lastnight, leadbelly songs influenced and were covered by few bands but the rabbit hole gets deep and you have to be willing to put the time in it
Just to think him playing that guitar would end up making it sell for $6m 27 years later, considering the story he told of being offered Ledbellys for $500.000.
The pines is a pine forest. If you ever walk into a pine forest the trees block out all the sun in the canopy and there is no life underneath just dead pine needles. “In the pines in the pines where the sun never shines”
Back in the day, my gf had a crush on Kurt. Lots of people did, he was a good looking dude. A lot of the time, his hair was in his face and she couldn't see his eyes.

Those blue eyes 💙💙💙💙
Back in the day my Mom had a crush on Slash. That's all for now..
Yes fantastic version of Aneurysm
Nice of her to casually tell you about her obsession with another man lol. 😜
@@mrhobs I've told her mine lol
This is a folk song that they don't know when it was originally written. It's very likely hundreds of years old. And has been sung by blues men, folk singers and then Nirvana.
It's a blues song..
Lead bellies done the song.
Bluegrass
💯 originally “in the pines” and “the longest train” Lead Belly’s version was by far the most popular prior to Kurt’s.
Kurt and Layne Staley had incredible voices
eddie vedder and chris cornell
@@zahira_rania yeah the emergence of grunge brought with it some great voices. I thought about adding Cornell 🤘
They both were very tortured yet underatedly funny guys.
I think Layne Staley had the best voice in all grunge
Don't forget, Chester Bennington

Kurt is the new owner
i think his cover of the Meat Puppets Plateau was definitely the best
one of the best performances from anyone ever
Man! Something about that last breath he takes before delivering the last couple words is so haunting.
The breath he takes.... and then the look he gives. Chills.
And while you’re dipping into the MTV Unplugged basket, definitely check out some of Alice In Chains performance as well. So good.
Can't second this enough
@@redrune100 can't third this enough!!
Quad it
Can’t really lose going over any of the grunge MTV Unoluggeds.
This performance of this song is legendary. Some people still laughably claim he can't sing.
Kurt was ahead of his time and misunderstood
This whole show was electrifying and iconic.
Hard to believe just months after this performance Kurt was gone :(
R.I.P. Kurt
Superb reaction Lilly Jane!

Did you get goosebumps listening to this?! Because I can watch and listen a million times and I get them every time!

Still awesome to see young Dave Grohl (lead singer of Foo Fighters) on the drums. Whole MTV Unplugged performance was legendary.
Man Who Sold The World another classic track from the performance.
Makes me fucking sad. I miss these times.
You should see really old vids of the speed metal band he was in called scream. Dave was such an incredible drummer he may of actually dumbed himself down to play nirvana.
This song has been giving me goosebumps for close to 30 years now and I'm 39.
R.I.P Cobain. ☘️

I love love love love seeing reactions to that last vesre! When he belts...its unexpected
Just an iconic performance Love you Kurt.
Always get shivers listening to this. One of the best blues covers ever done.

First time viewer of your channel here, what a perfect introduction this video has been to your channel. Subbed!
Poker faced when he starts to sing BECAUSE the emotions go so deep.
Favorite Nirvana live performance is definitely Breed (Live) At The Paramount 1991.

Hay q agradecer q nos dejo estas reliquias... fue muy corto tu viaje en esta vida kurt...
the way his voice breaks is so beautiful
More Nirvana! Ty for this reaction. Gone to soon. Rip.
This whole show is my favorite. You have to watch the whole thing from start to finish
Thank you for doing this. I miss Kurt and Nirvana a great deal.

Always the greatest…I’m crying
I was never a big Nirvana fan, but back in the day when I heard this song at 6:16, I knew I had to buy the album
The Pines is a literal place. The southern U.S. particularly Georgia. Miles and miles and miles of pine trees. So many cryptid stories and ghost stories and actual murders.
Pain. Curt was such a great artist. The way he could communicate the pain of dealing with a partner who is not faithful - amazing. RIP
Well he was married to a 304...he was just singing from experience...
@@ca9968 That may be true (that Courtney Love is/was a 304) but in Cobain's suicide note he said of her "I have a goddess of a wife who sweats ambition and empathy". It is possible (though unlikely) the suicide note was planted.
After they walked offstage, the producers tried to get them to play one more. Kurt said, “I can’t do better than that.” And he was right.
All time finish to song, emotional set, just such a great final show for him. That look he gives with the breath is crazy.
At 6:22 it's as if Kurt just saw how violently and tragically his life would end just a few months later.
What a Rockstar and you're absolutely right about MTV
One of if not the best unplugged ever.
Love that man. When he died it hurt.
Nirvana Reading festival..... epic!
Nirvana unplugged - lake of fire, plateau, and man who sold the world are also all great follow-ups!!
Also Nirvana unplugged - in bloom
Also Nirvana unplugged - About A Girl
Also Nirvana unplugged - Come As You Are
Nirvana - Grape Me [(not grape, but you know - Live At The Paramount, Seattle / 1991) might not be good for youtube algorithms..]

Haunting when he starts screaming.
Few guys in music changed the course of a sound, Kurt Cobain is one.
Bought this on DVD loved it
Love your reacxtions your the best
Last song he ever played in front of cameras. I don't know if "living his best life" is the best way to describe that moment.
...in that moment. Doing your you, your purpose is a best life. Doesn't always mean trappings of living it up like Vegas or some such, no?
The best vocal perfomance ever
The Pines were the pine and cypress swamps that were the only refuge for slaves that ran because the dogs could not track them in the swamps... this comes from historical data...such a powerful song!!!!!!!
Also Nirvana live at Paramount was great show.
My favorite live Nirvana performance is Radio Friendly Unit Shifter from Live and Loud 1993.
I remember when I saw this performance without knowing anything about Kurt this last song had something, like he was saying goodbye.
I enjoyed your reaction! As for the best unplugged renditions Polly, Man who sold the world, and all apologies. That should do you good to hear those.
my first lisening Nirvana song Scentless Apprentice my favorite if you here more scream listen this Nirvana - Scentless Apprentice ( MTV Live And Loud, Seattle / 1993 )
If you want to look into someone's soul stop video at 6:24. Kurt started the whole grunge movement. I remembered where I was the first time I heard Nirvana and also when Kurt died. Another one lost way too young.
“Kurt had a real connection to the song as he was performing it”… Absolutely AGREE.
I feel like this was his way of telling his wife Courtney and the world: I know my wife’s being unfaithful and she’s broken my heart.
(Kurt’s wife actually didn’t attend this gig, because he had this song in the set list.)
This album and Seether "One Cold Night" are my favorite of the "Unplugged" genre...so damn good!
From Indonesia Nirvana idolaku sampai saat ini..
my favourite performance its blew 1992
You should listen to the entire unplugged set my god it's just awesome
Great job with your reaction to Were Did You Sleep Last Night live performance from Nirvana . It's still sad this would be one of Kurt Cobain RIP last public appearances and shows l do believe.
Pines just means in the woods
Couple of points on *MTV Unplugged* artists would come & play their hits acoustically, *Nirvana* turned that on its head they didn't play any of their own music. Oh & that *$500,000 Leadbelly* guitar would be *$1Million* in *2022.* So it should be pointed out the guitar *Kurt* is playing sold for *$6Million*
Thanks for reaction..
RIP Kurt Cobain 🙏
Aneurysm-Live at The Paramont-Seattle, 1991.

lilly munster .....good taste n music and absolutely beautiful :)
He was genius in the rock music!!!
I love watching Dave when he used to play the drums.
He was in the moment when he belted out those screams. I heard recently while this concert was going on that Courtney was out doing her job. We know what her job/jobs detailed at the time.
I love when he screams

Was mostly cover songs
And it seemed like he was trying to "pass the torch"
To a band called
The meat puppets
Watched this in 94 when it aired, it was like a kick in the b*lls when he took his own life. Seeing this hurts so bad knowing that he had a huge future if he could have gotten away from the drugs.
singing the black man's blues, you want to find out check out Leadbelly's where did you sleep lastnight, leadbelly songs influenced and were covered by few bands but the rabbit hole gets deep and you have to be willing to put the time in it
Try these live Nirvana performances:
School - Live at Reading 92
Aneurysm - Live at the Paramount
Scentless Apprentice - Live and Loud
I love the real bass here
That look right before the last lyrics with the huge breathe in. He knew it was the last thing he would ever sing live.
Just to think him playing that guitar would end up making it sell for $6m 27 years later, considering the story he told of being offered Ledbellys for $500.000.
And another of his electric guitars he destroyed in 1989 was recently sold for this 500000$
Got to check out/react to: Nirvana - Drain You (Live And Loud, Seattle / 1993)
The pines is a pine forest. If you ever walk into a pine forest the trees block out all the sun in the canopy and there is no life underneath just dead pine needles. “In the pines in the pines where the sun never shines”
You should react to NIrvana's "Lithium" live on the 1992 mtv video music awards.. it's the best thing mtv ever aired
That intense flash of green eyes at the end … I just want to confess all my sins.
today's singers would have 30 dancers on stage.
Granted, Nirvana had “dancers” as well in a few shows, but it was fun.
