    It becomes so much more powerful once you realize it was the last song of their legendary MTV Unplugged performance and the show was recorded a little less than five months before Kurt passed. It didn't even air on MTV until months after his passing, which made this final song all the more haunting when everyone heard it for the first time.

    • @AaronHunter
      @AaronHunter 3 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      I'm pretty sure it played about five months before he died. We were already on watch, sadly, because his behavior (at least as reported by the mostly pre-internet media) had already become really sporadic. This song spooked a lot of us at the time, hard.

      But I know what you mean. Remember that day in April very clearly - well, that whole spring really, as he'd had a couple close calls leading up to that day. The feeling of impending doom was hard to shake.

      @@AaronHunter And most of that media was allegedly manufactured by Courtney. She was apparently the one calling all the rock media dishing the dirt on her own husband and making false claims about what was happening. According to multiple people she was lying about everything from the events in Rome to his "suicidal" behavior but because they were all being decent and not running to the press to generate drama it was only her bullshit that was being printed and the rock media at the time didn't give a damn about Kurt, they just wanted to dish the dirt from the horses mouth. This is one of the reasons everyone around them at the time absolutely loathes the woman to this day, they know what was happening and they know that she was/is a manipulative sociopath. Even their daughter seems to have worked it out and apparently she no longer speaks to her.

      Yeah sorry, I was there in front of my TV as soon as it premiered, watching it for the first time BEFORE his death. Like others have said, we were all blown away by it but scared by it as well. It really was a matter of all of us who loved Kurt from afar thru Nirvana's music knew how in trouble he was, and how things were crashing down, but we couldn't do anything about it. A very emotional time for my generation.

    Btw Leadbelly was an old school blues guy from way way way back. Not an old country guy but we're talking far enough back that the differences were pretty slight. A lot of people would call him folk too but he's an old old acoustic blues guy from early to mid 1930s

    I remember reading an interview once with someone who was there that night, who said that those last few seconds were so haunting to see in person, that when Kurt opened his eyes like that at the end his stare was so piercing that it was like he’d been possessed for a moment.
    They recorded this whole set in a single take, which no other artist had done so far for an MTV Unplugged set, and Kurt was in the middle of withdrawal at the time and unwell.
    He refused to go back out for an encore, believing that he couldn’t better the performance of this song.
    It was Andrew Wallace Chamings who said that, found the interview.
    “For the final line, "I would shiver the whole night through," Cobain jumps up an octave, forcing him to strain so far he screams and cracks. He hits the word "shiver" so hard that the band stops, as if a fight broke out at a sitcom wedding. Next he howls the word "whole" and then does something very strange in the brief silence that follows, something that's hard to describe: he opens his piercingly blue eyes so suddenly it feels like someone or something else is looking out under the bleached lank fringe, with a strange clarity.”

      It's a split second of his entire career but it's one of the most startling things I think I have ever seen from a performer and I've never seen anything like it before or since. It's bizarre. It's just a look, but it's timed so perfectly and his eyes are so full of **something** that no one can seem to put their finger on. I sometimes think it's terror, other times I think it's sadness, then it looks like futility, then panic... It's just so haunting.
      When you combine it with the legend that this was about Courtney and he decided to close the show with it on the day, without warning, your mind starts to race about the meaning of it even more.

    If you listen to it carefully a couple of times, at least what I noticed and appreciated, is that every time he sings the chorus, each times has a different connotation, even though they are the same exact words all in a row. Subtle but distinct… simple but complex. That’s why HE was Kurt Cobain and no one else could ever be. The passion and tone go from asking, to informing, to like committing manslaughter like in “The Shining” or something. Dude goes deep dark. I think he was very brave to expose his vulnerability to the whole freaking world like that. Like half of the world has watched this performance over and over. I miss Kurt Cobain.❤️

    Admittedly one of the most beautiful and haunting performance ever. You could tell Kurt was in pain. This gets me every time I hear it or see this clip. I can hardly believe how much time has passed since Kurt and Nirvana left us. All apologies is a great follow up to this performance. “All Apologies” is amazing, brings me to tears every time I hear it. Although Kurt is gone, I am comforted with the body of work he left us. These songs will never cease to exist and more people than not are discovering Nirvana. Thank you Jovaughn. I appreciate how much you’ve accomplished with your channel. I might not get on here all the time but I always have to check what you have reacted to first. ❤️

I wonder what he would have made of the fact that the very guitar he was holding at that moment would, one day, sell for $6 million. Oh, by the way, David Geffen, isn't an artist, he was the owner of Geffen Records and was the "G" in the film studio "Dreamworks SKG".
