That moment where he takes a breath after the haunting scream still sends shivers down my spine 28 years later.
MTV unplugged captured some amazing performances during that era.
Pearl Jam, AiC, STP, Chris Isaak...yeah, some monumental moments.
IKR literal shivers!!
Yes! And he opens his eyes...such beautiful blue eyes 💙
Absolutely. I can't watch this video without feeling a deep sadness. I have the DVD of the show and will only watch it alone, volume high and at times shed a tear for the heartache was obviously experiencing at the time
Did you have to remind me it was so long ago lol.
The best band ever! The drummer later started his own band called Foo Fighters (super popular) Kurt was only 27 when he passed. The original singer was a jazz black man in the 40s i believe and kurt sang it word for word with his twist at the end. Im so sorry i forget his name.
Fun fact: this a cover of a song written and performed by Huddie Ledbetter better know by his stage name of Lead Belly. In 1917 he was convicted of murder a sentenced to either 30 years in Louisiana State Penitentiary(Angola), but after only a few years he performed a song for the Governor of Louisiana asking for a pardon. The governor (who also folk musician of sorts was so impressed that he granted him clemency... 4 years later Lead Belly was convicted of attempted murder and sent back to Angola... if you haven't head Lead Bellys rendition of Where did you Sleep Last night, I highly suggest it as well as every thing he recorded... he was a very accomplished musician who set standards in music that are still held to this day...
The voice of grunge. And that entire album is of that caliber. You could also check out Alice in Chains for another voice of the times or Soundgarden. There was a surge of talent at that time.
This is a great Nirvana performance, however, not a Nirvana song. Research their top songs and you won't be disappointed but this particular unplugged show is usually what solidifies everyone's love and obsession for them, I'd recommend any and all of the MTV unplugged performance.
Kurt Cobain is in a category by himself.
You should listen to the punk goes acoustic version of story of my bros by dance gavin dance i think youll like it
My 3rd favorite grunge band
I always like the fact that Kurt is talking about buying that guitar at the beginning for $500,000 like it’s crazy, then the guitar he is playing in this video recently sold for $6,000,000..:)
Irony at its finest. Truly sad
8:00 - Imagine what those autographs are worth.
Did franceses ex husband get the guitar in divorce settlement then go sell it for 6 million?
@@pabloinsua7752 coincidence, not irony.
@@matthewjdouglas6471 I believe he did... but Kurt's sister recently sold that cardigan for damn near half a million...
I'm a simple man, I see Nirvana, I click.
I feel
Haha, you and me both!
▶️🅰️⚀
Yeah, me too.
Facts me too bro
My funny Nirvana story: I grew up in Cannon Falls, Minnesota...home of Pachyderm Studios, where Nirvana recorded their 'In Utero' album. I was in high school, and worked at the local pizza shop. We got an order to be delivered to Pachyderm, and when I got to the studio, all the guys stopped recording and came over. They seemed kind of surprised that I didn't know who they were (they introduced themselves, and their band name). I was into rap and hip-hop. When I got back to the pizza shop, everyone asked me who was out at the studio...I said "I don't know...some band called Nirvana or something".... everyone freaked out, and went on about how unfair it was that the only guy who didn't know them was the one who got to take the delivery...😂
😂 wow that’s insane ! Thanks for the story ☺️
Dude my buddies' band I worked for recorded at Pachyderm in 2007. It was super cool....all the gold and platinum records on the walls. The big room in the house was where Kurt slept. The engineer we worked with was the guy that picked them up at the airport when they got to Minnesota and it was the first album he worked on. So many stories....spent four days of my life in Cannon Falls and they were unforgettable.
@@michaelgroetken7479 that is awesome! Very nice little town...and only about a half-hour from the Twin Cities. I loved growing up in Cannon...would like to move back some day.
I understand you listened to hip hop, but Nirvana was the biggest band on the planet at the time, how the hell did you not hear about them? I grew up listening to punk and similar genres, but I knew who Tribe Called Quest were for example, shit I knew most 90s hip hop groups even tho I wasn't in the hip hop scene, every radio station, MTV, every magazine all spoke about Nirvana. Like, how the hell did you avoid hearing about the biggest artist of the time? that makes no sense to me.
@@panrick Sometimes life is so amazingly unfair.
Cobain at his best, but not really representative of Nirvana's music...
Which is partly why I like this so much. Not that I don't like Nirvana's usual material, I do, but boy, they really knock this one out of the park. So haunting.
@@seanbeckett4019 the Best, man...
I wouldn't say it isn't representative of Nirvana's music. What about 'something in the way' as a melancholy track? Would you say that wasn't representative of Nirvana? Every one of nirvana's songs are melancholy in some way, but a lot are about breaking free from sadness. Or running from sadness in Kurt's case. You can still hear the sadness though in all of them. Ironically their most popular track, 'smells like teen spirit', was the track that seemed a bit different on Nevermind
Yeah, love this performance but I agree. Not a good song start your Nirvana journey
@@jessewallace666 Who are you agreeing with? We are all saying it's brilliant. Pretty sure this is considered one of his best too.
This whole Unplugged concert is great
I still get goosebumps when he takes that deep breath. So glad I got to watch this first airing on mtv when I was a teenager. Amazing.
That song gives me goosebumps literally every single time I hear it, even if it’s the tenth time in a row.
And those eyes.
Same man
i was in 7th grade when Kurt Cobain died. I remember coming home from school and Kurt Loder was on MTV saying he'd died and they played Nirvana videos all night.
I was in 8th or 9th grade, I remember sitting in chemistry class when I learned about Kurt's death. I wasn't even a big fan at the time, but still, it made a big impact.
I was a junior in high school....it was devastating.
8th grade, Saw the report before my buddys mom dropped him off at my place so we could go skate the elementary school up the road. When he got there he had no idea, and I told him. We sat on our boards on the curb in front of my grammas house and didnt talk for like an hour. Then we went and skated. Ill never forget that.
I was working at an electronic component distributor in Houston. I remember Kurt had recently gotten out of a hospital in London (I think. Or was it Italy). He had come close to dying then. I had a little radio on my desk and the bulletin came over the radio station that he’d taken a shotgun and ended it all back in Seattle. I told a girl who worked a few desks up from mine about what had just happened. Since we had both talked about him recently, she thought I was kidding. I wish I had been.
About 13 when he passed.....next day everyone was wearing those sweaters for Kurt.
I would go back and forth between some of their classic tunes like Smell’s Like Teen Spirit, Lithium, Rape Me, and more songs from this MTV Unplugged performance like The Man Who Sold the World, and All Apologies. Really encapsulates Kurt’s versatility and talent.
I've always been partial to songs Like "Drain You", "On A Plain" and "Breed", at least on the Nevermind album. Those just spring to mind, at least.
Heart Shape box, Penny Royal Tea and Come as you are and Lake of Fire as well, But the MTV unplugged performance was fantastic. To Shiloh. "Jesus that is a lot of money". You should check out how much, Cobain's guitar was sold for. That Guitar in this video you featured sold for 6mil. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/kurt-cobain-s-mtv-unplugged-guitar-sells-6-million-auction-n1231661
I wouldnt say those are classics. Just their most popular.
All these comments are naming off all the songs they love and I'm just sitting here like, yea I like that one and that one and that one and that one. Now that I think about it, it would be hard to find a Nirvana song that I didn't like.
Nirvana was my fav band growing up but today's youth, and singing talent, is not going to find better vocals than this. It is the best performance he ever did.
Rape me? You kidding? They'd be shut down in a minute lol.
The genre of grunge will never have another. When Kurt took his life, music changed to never be the same again. Thank you for this one. One of my favorites. Stay safe and stay awesome.
Or murdered
He didn’t take his own life.
Do some research and you may see some Hole s in the story
@@judephoenix he did though
Smells like Teen Spirit, Heart Shaped Box, Lithium, so many great songs by Nirvana
I second this. With this one as your starter, I'd suggest moving onto Heart Shaped Box before you stage dive into the more punk grunge sound they have.
In Bloom, Come As You Are, Lake of Fire, About a Girl, All Apologies, The Man Who Sold The World, Breed, Rape Me, Something In The Way...
I really like Blew
@@jtbrah6995 Fking awesome suggestions!!
I like all of them songs too.
But I lean more towards songs from "In Utero".
Much darker and more unique sounding than most of the "Nevermind" songs.
From "In Utero" I would suggest "Radio Friendly Unit Shifter", "Serve the Servants" and "Frances Farmer will have her revenge on Seattle"
From the same special: Lake of Fire, or Plateau.
covers...
Both fantastic covers... Hauntingly good!
This is from MTV unplugged it's Kurt Cobain at his best.
That eye pop and breath at the end get me every time I see this video.
Fucking chills. Every time...and I watched this when it originally aired on MTV in the '90s.
He’s his own category. His voice is like if sweet, kindness, sadness, pain, and heartbreak had a baby with aggression. Sadly it always seems true, but the brightest flames burn quickest.
"I burn my candle at both ends..
It will not last the night..
But, oh, my foes and ahh,my friends..
It throws a lovely light..."
Well, he and Nirvana is the defining act which was Grunge music so in a way every band who fell into the grunge category was in fact mimicking Kurt's style. But he himself got loads of inspiration from people like Bowie and The Pixies. I'm very thankful for The PIxies for that reason, they're a totally underrated band way ahead of their time back in the eighties and many people have no idea how important they were to Nirvana's sound. You possibly (probably?) already know them and this song, but if not give this Pixies track from 1988 a try, if you haven't heard of them I guarantee you won't regret it and to be honest, you'll probably recognise the song even if you haven't heard of them th-cam.com/video/49FB9hhoO6c/w-d-xo.html
One of if not my favorite song. Really interesting history. As he says this is a cover of a Lead Belly song, originally called Black Girl, which Lead Belly changed to "My Girl" when he was asked to perform it in front of white audiences. Lead Belly's version of the song is one of many as this song goes back to about the 1800's and is a popular Appalachian Murder Ballad. A "murder ballad" comes from letters that people would write when there was a horrific crime committed (not always murder) and spread them around to either warn people or to tell the story of the victim as they were not reported. At the time they were often written about black people trying to escape slavery and being caught and lynched in Appalachia. "Polly" is also like an original Nirvana murder ballad, it's about the kidnapping and torture of a teenage girl near where he lived. This particular murder ballad is about a woman on the run, her husband is decapitated by a train (driving wheel is a train engine), believed to be tied down based on other versions. She has run in to the woods; In East Appalachia there are pine forests with so many tall narrow timbers that the ground around them is always cold as the sun never touches it due to the shade. She is describing hiding from the people who killed her husband in the woods where the sun never shines.
Came here to say this, but you said it much better. This song has an incredible history.
WOW 😳
Now I know what a driving wheel is. Thanks
Loretta Lynn sings a version that’s a little long from my understanding this is 2songs combined
Nirvana was a Grunge band. It's somewhere between punk, rock and blues. Kurt's vocals and use of his voice to complete complex melodies is pretty iconic. This song still gives me chills every single time I hear it
Me too! God i miss grunge. Another underrated grungy band from the 90s is the gits, cus Mia zapata died before they got a real chance at getting their music out there. Rip Mia. 🙏
6:17 is a moment where he saw his own demons. Such a great performance.
Kurt and his voice made his own genre called grunge.
Imo soundgarden started grunge, and nirvana was more punk then anything not that they don’t have grungy songs
Sound garden alice in chains were before nirvana.
Grunge started before nirvana or soundgarden. Undoubtedly the hub was Seattle. Alot of people would argue that bands like pearl jam were far ahead of many in creating the sound. But grunge itself was a form of punk rock, clearly. The art form isn't really relevant and no one can really know the origin, nor does it matter.
@@williamcook9304 a lot of people class guns n roses being quite grunge in some of their songs. Axl Rose most certainly had a grunge voice years ago. 1987 appetite for destruction was released and what an album. But yeah I agree with u.
Oh please "grunge" was more of a aesthetic thing if anything and you should listen to Touch Me I'm Sick
Kurts musicality was always underestimated. Until this show.
Yeah, he really showed the critics that he's an incredible musician and his band wasn't always just about punk rock
"The man who sold the world" from this same show, is the best Nirvana song ever (not) written by Nirvana.
Ah yes, the David Bowie cover. I haven't seen that in a while, but I remember it being very well done.
Yeah, I loved that song with Bowie's mysterious lyrics and Cobain's haunting delivery. I still think "Where did you sleep last night" is the best song off the album, but I can totally understand why many others would think "The man who sold the world" is the best. Truth is I think all the songs off the unplugged album are great.
written by nirvana AHAHAHAAHAH
This song the actual origins are unknown, Lead Belly was one of the first to record it, the genre is actually called murder folk music (Stagger Lee) another example. You can fact check me on that, it's actually 2 songs that over years became one. With many variations along the way, in 1964 The four pennies had some success with this song under the title "Black Girl", which was one title Lead Belly sang the song under as well.🚀🌌 check out Alice in Chains "Nutshell" MTV Unplugged version
Nirvana was the quintessential band of the 90’s grunge scene. This was my era of music and still love it. There’s hundreds of songs and dozens of bands I could recommend, but one you might find interesting and different is Black Hole Sun by Soundgarden. Give it a listen.
Omg, I loved Soundgarden in the 90’s
The Seattle bands had a massive influence on nineties music.
Not the video tho lol that will distract from how good the song is and Cornell's singing is like in pretty much any song he sang. R.I.P.
It's not a Nirvana song: it's a traditional- "In the Pines"- first time recorded by Leadbelly in 1939. If you want to understand Nirvana you have to go elsewhere...
Actually Leadbelly originally titled it Black Girl
@@shawnminnich7273 great.
Not really, they covered this and made it their own. Unplugged is one of the best places to start tbh.
But it's a maximum great rendition of this traditional, isn't it?
why did nirvana steal songs?
This video is from their legendary "Unplugged In New York" session, where half the setlist is covers of other songs. If you want to go down the Nirvana rabbit hole, start with "Smells Like Teen Spirit" and then use Wikipedia to track the singles by release date; that way you experience them as we did. Now the albums are great overall ( _Bleach_ tends to have love/hate relationship with the fans) but use the single list as your base guide and then pick and choose as you will. I'll throw my personal recommendation for "tourette's" because most people skip over that one because it's kind of a nonsense song but...it fucking slaps (as the kids say these days).
I will say this though: "Where Did You Sleep Last Night" is probably the best song to end your Nirvana tour because...well, Jesus, listen to it. Kurt himself said he couldn't do an encore because he couldn't top that song.
One of the biggest Grunge bands ever, brought a different kind of sound to the crowd.
And single handedly ended hair bands
“SMELLS LIKE TEEN SPIRIT”!!!!
The song that launched Nirvana!!!.....and his voice is “Grunge Rock”
Cmon guys let’s help this girl out with the correct Nirvana songs to start with!!!
I see nothing wrong with this song as an entry point to Nirvana.
@@south6bt ....but that song was originally a song by “Leadbelly”.....back in 1944.
Still was a great cover but not a Nirvana song....so it was not the right entry video to watch......but still a nice video to react to.
No Teen Spirit is a bad choice. It's their most commercial. That should wait until like the 20th video.
Review his "before famous" songs. The Bleach album. School, Love Buzz, About a girl, Negative creep.
If she really wants to go past normal... do those videos and add live. Doesn't matter the venue. Any one would be an experience.
Smells Like Teen Spirit is probably Nirvana's worst song and only a poseur would call them "grunge rock"
rip off song lol
What is so weird is I know exactly where I was when I first heard" Smells Like Teen Spirit". Literally there are NO other bands where I remember where I first heard them.
Same. Went to school the next day and told a buddy. We both basically discovered them on the same night. We kept talking about the guy in the striped shirt
I know exactly what you’re talking about. First time I heard Smells Like Teen Spirit is something I remember pretty well. The next day, I searched a few Nirvana songs, and became a fan
This is one of the greatest live performances ever. He died a couple weeks later
Agree with 1/2 of this 🤗
@@AlexanderKnollwood which part is wrong? The timing or you don’t like them?
@@jeffharrell8967 just the timing; it was a few months into ‘94. This was recorded in November of ‘93. But truly and absolutely one of the best live shows ever recorded.
@@AlexanderKnollwood gives me chills every time.
Months***
That moment where Kurt opens his eyes briefly at the end.... still hits the feels every single time!! Such a talented and solid musician/song writer lost too soon! :(
Kurt was wrestling with some pretty dark demons. Been there myself
Lead Belly, made many songs like this, that others used, like Nirvana.
The 3 unpluggeds, Nirvana, Alice in Chains and Pearl Jam, 3 albuns that should really be World Heritage
@5:23 Thank you for this review. The performance shows Kurt's appreciation of music and his uncanny ability to invoke Leadbelly's spirit. No distortion and no power chords here. Tell me you don't feel something when you hear it.
Smells like teen spirit is there first and best but this one is ok the dark hair dude playing the guitar is playing buck Owen's famous guitar from the grand ole Opry o yeah his name is pap smear.. celebrities can't live with them can't live without them in my 40 yrs in the music industry I met a few pap smears..lol also that drummer is Dave Grohl the lead singer from the foo fighters they are probably as successful as nirvana.🤘😁
On a side note nirvana ruined my career we was about to sign another contract then nirvana came out they was the first grunge band. It ruined serious rock bands .it ended guns n Rose's. Motly crew. All the hair bands for more than 10yrs it was just grunge music I went from playing stadiums to playing biker bars. overnight. Thanks nirvana..🤘
Pat Smear, not "Pap". But obviously a play on that.
Kurt Cobain was a gift. His voice was a gift. He had found his audience who loved him dearly. And those of us who loved him are still destroyed by not only his passing, but the manner in which he died. R.I.P. Kurt.
I feel like this shouldn't be your first experience with them...it's more of a Grand Finale. Ironically that guitar sold for 6 million dollars...I think he surpassed his favorite performer.
It's iconic and one of the best live performances ever. Any time someone heard this rendition, it's special.
Who is his favorite performer?
@@khemuelqueron7807 Leadbelly, pay attention
Stop the act your a lady gaga and Rihanna fan. Don't ever disrespect *REAL* music with those eye brows. No idea how a person convinces themselves that looking silly is cool SMH
Nirvana were the greatest rock band ever.
This is a pretty good starter song, as it eases you into the tone of the band easily.
But it's important to know that the END of this song is what the real sound of the band usually is.
Yes, I sort of "rediscovered" Nirvana a few years ago, after not listening to them in a long time, and I had forgotten just how heavy and hard hitting they actual were.
It’s a great song, but Nirvana has a ton of great songs.
“Polly”
“Lake of Fire” (cover of a Meat Puppets song)
“Lithium”
The most popular song by them is “Smells Like Teen Spirit”, and I seriously doubt you’ve never heard that. I’m sure you probably have heard it at one time or another.
Polly? Lol no.
Polly
About A Girl
Love Buzz
Sliver
Dumb
Negative Creep
Pennyroyal Tea
Oh Me
Territorial Pissing
thats GRUNGE rock in the 90's - kurt was amazing, tons of songs where he goes from mellow to a scream lol
For me, Cobain and Staley were the voices of grunge - and grunge died with them. A very important era in rock music.
Not taking anything away from Nirvana, but for interest, here is the original: th-cam.com/video/28KEs9xq6X0/w-d-xo.html
This is probably the best "first reaction" song to listen too by Nirvana. Great choice, that whole album is amazing
Kurt's guitar sold for 6 million!😳 Kurt was 1 in a million! Tell me today who goes and signs autographs after a show😉 "Nobody "
Were did you sleep last night isn't a good start with. Smells like teen spirit would be best. This song is a last Nervana song.
That is a very old song. He mentioned Lead Belly but Lead Belly wasn't the first to sing it. Some sources say the song dates back to the 1800s.
Correct. But it was Lead Belly that made it the most notable and well known.
@@philthemovieguy81 True. Maybe because he was the most modern?
@@philthemovieguy81 Ryan Upchurch did a good cover more recently.
@@texadan314 Perhaps. But to me i think Blues music was still in its infancy and still flourishing. New artists were being recorded during that era such as Charley Patton and Blind Willie Johnson.
I just knew the version from 1964 from The Four Pennies and it was called 'Black Girl'. It reached Number 20 here in the UK Chart.
u will now "lake of fire" platueau" they were killer," where did u sleep light nite" -in the pines was epic, about a 100 year old song
The whole "in utero" album is amazing. So is "nevermind". Bleach is incredible too. Cant go wrong really. lol I've loved Kurt's voice from the first time I heard it.
Some of my favs are you know your right, rape me, heart shaped box, lithium, in bloom. Try those. Watch the whole unplugged show & the live & loud show are incredible as well.
This is actually an old Bible song. They do a good cover, but it's not there song.
d- 7"" radio friendly unit shifter" rip kurt dimenton 7 i think it was caled, but i cant spell the demention part lol
As someone who lived and loved them in the early 90's I'll tell you why none of the "unplugged" songs are good choices for first reactions (the unplugged is legendary and they have very, very good versions of their songs and awesome covers like this one or "the man who sold the world") but they are nowhere near the identity of Nirvana. To me, heart shape box and In bloom are the best way to experience Nirvana as they wanted to express themselves. David Grohl said in interviews that In Bloom is Kurt's favorite song and In bloom is a mockery song toward their new "fans" who only wear their t-shirts and listen to their songs because they we're popular but never tried to understand what they really want to express with their music. Smells like teen spirit is their biggest song but it's one that Kurt hated himself and Chris Novoselic wasn't very fond of either. The song name has an interesting story, Kurt was dating a girl at the time and she wrote on the walls of his house "Kurt smells like teen spirit" which was a perfume back in the days. I was 10 years old in 1994 when this aired on MTV, was 4AM in the morning and it was the first live concert I ever saw. Needless to say that I'm past my grunge days but this unplugged will forever be embeded as something very special in my heart and mind.
I had no idea that my favorite song was also Kurt’s favorite. Thanks for that beautiful piece of information, I like the song even more now.
You can hear Kurts pain in his voice!
Nirvana songs... go inside your heart... a place that you dont know of yourself... acording to the videos availables React to
1. Smell like teen spirits
2. Heart shaped box.
3. Lithium.
4. In bloom
5. Dumb
6. Lake of fire
There are so many
Thanks for the list! ☺️☺️
You know you're right or Lounge act (Nirvana)
King of the grunge era is where that voice is from sounds like he's boiling nails in his throat
I started getting into nirvana in 1993 i was a junior in high school then 1994 when i was 18 a senior i was devastated when i heard he killed himself, dam still Rembert it like it was yesterday, Try Hearing" About a girl' live at the paramount in Seattle it was awesome
Pennyroyal tea from the same unplugged
Smells like teen spirit next
Mmmmm, that was a great unplugged session, very well known but definitely not the best to react about Nirvana in your first time, not to mention that this is a cover song... You have to hear something from "Nevermind" or "In Utero" maybe. But, anyways a great track and video from Nirvana and from you! Thank you!
Don't get me wrong, this is a great song and an amazing performance! But I always feel the intro song to Nirvana should always be Smells Like Teen Spirit. I also feel like whenever someone reacts to a band for the very first time the biggest earliest "hit" should be the first listen. It's fine of course to not do that, I just feel that's the best way to get introduced to a band.
Now, as for more Nirvana? I put my vote towards any and all Grunge songs from the 90s!
Girl there is no bad choice when it comes to Kurt ❣️ Perfect song choice!
I personally like many songs from the album "In Utero" better.
I would suggest "Milk it", "Frances Farmer will have her revenge on Seattle" or "Serve the servants"
It's their latest album when Kurt was alive from 1993.
More unique sounding and rare.
Also I find that songs more representative for Nirvana's sound.
But that's my opinion.
I remember being 13 years old and watching this....not knowing this song but I remember being mesmerized. All the more haunting when you consider Kurt does not long after this performance, right?
His genre is grunge his and his alone
His voice was GOLD, the distorted or vibrated sound came from his lung.. this technique is very difficult.. Shame he's gone forever but his legacy will still remain forever RIP Kurdt
Pixies often sighted as their inspiration to their sound, the quiet, quiet, loud. That in a nutshell is nirvana, they go from barely an audible whisper to all out sonic assault and back again and never break stride. The ferocity of the percussion, driving bass lines, crushing guitar and a singer with a voice so fragile it was always at breaking point, these might not come across in this song, but the are there, the foundations of the genre, the genre they created not by design, but by how they existed. It still breaks my heart that he wanted so much to be a pop star and when became it, it was all too much. Nirvana was the band that had a&r people scuttling all over the Pacific north west looking for more of the same, what they didn’t know was the fact it became an out of control freight train smashing through walls and social statuses, everybody trying to hitch their wagon to it without realising no one was at the controls and it was heading for a horrific stop. The bands from the grunge era continue to this day, but nirvana remain the benchmark, that in 3 studio albums they are still one to be measured by. I’m was born the same year as Kurt, it still pains me to think of him gone, but what a difference his short on the earth made. 3 decades later watching the delight in the eyes of youth of today as they discover what is now music of a bygone era 😢
*I think you may be a Grunger at heart! Welcome to the family❤*
Best unplugged outta them all. Kurt just has that godlike, or charisma that just can't take your eyes off em..
According to his biographer, Kurt liked to think of himself as punk, but he was known to listen to old pop music too. If you want to see Nirvana having fun with their band image, the video for "In Bloom" is a must.
I love seeing people's reactions when Kurt lets loose. Not disappointed. :)
Ooh react to Nirvana- Lounge act , drain you. Aneurysm, Pennyroyal tea , Territorial Pissings , About a girl and so many more songs from them .....
try the best acoustic set of all time(in my opinion) Alice in Chain unplugged. Great reactions btw!
That reaction was exactly what I hoped for. This is one of the greatest live performances ever. It never fails, when his vocals kick in on the last chorus, it's just amazing.
He was always his own. Showed up in a Mister Rogers sweater, belted out this cover of an oooold song, and nailed it.
so who gonna tell her
His vocal is correctly considered to fall under the heading of "rock." A bit on the "soul" side, but certainly a rock voice. One of the better ones.

An actual Nirvana song would've been more appropriate, as opposed to a cover. That's like checking out Johnny Cash by listening to Hurt.
🤨
Yes - my teenage obession.
This is a fine performance from a great set but it's a cover so doesn't represent Nirvana.
Shortlist to consider -
Heart-Shaped Box
Breed
Smells Like Teen Spirit
Lithium
Drain You
Scentless Apprentice
Aneurysm
Not sure if anyone mentioned this but this was the second to last live performance of Nirvana. They went to Italy, I believe, and played their last show a little bit after.
Lol...1985 ain't Nirvana babe...in fact...there's a line from "1985" that even says..."we had U2 , Madonna, way before Nirvana.."...✌️😆
Loved it - you got a new sub too!
Man, there's sooo many great tracks to choose from:
Something in the way
Molly Lips
On a plain
Lithium
Lake of fire
A great album to start of would be Nevermind - you can play it from start to finish.
breed live at the paramount is a good representation of nirvana
Leadbelly - Where Did you Sleep Last Night (1939) the original version
