PLEASE do Nirvana’s “all apologies” MTV unplugged version. It’s a live version, slowed down, and better than the studio release. PLEASE!! Man, I love nirvana......
@@SherriLyle80s Anytime. Many people have trouble with Kurt's lyrics. He always said the music comes first and the lyrics are secondary. People don't realize some of his songs as personal, some are just random contradictions, some are lyrics with dual meanings, and others are written from the perspective of someone else.
JAY... THE DRUMMER IN THIS VIDEO IS DAVID GROHL ...LATER ON HE WOULD GO ON TO FORM THE BAND THE FOO FIGHTERS ...IF YOU GET THE CHANCE PLEASE REACT TO THE SONG BEST OF YOU ...EXCELLENT SONG JAY!
JoVaughn does know this. The moment he realizes it is caught in one of his reactions to another Nirvana video. It's super cute when he realizes it. :-)
I loved Nirvana. Heavy rock music had become a bloated parody if itself and Nirvana took it back to personally relatable levels. Their songs spoke to people who are normally excluded or ignored in most rock music cliches. They achieved huge success entirely on their own terms, without sacrificing their integrity or making concessions to commerciality.
This is really lost on people who didn’t experience the sea-change that Nirvana represented in music and culture. They immediately made almost every popular band at the time seem ridiculous for wearing makeup and acting tough. Not that wearing makeup is wrong, but everyone was basically going on stage wearing a costume and playing a character. Nirvana’s choice of keeping everything “silly” and honest instead of overwrought was such a breath of fresh air in a cloud of hair spray.
@@alicspellman6938 Oh, I agree, but they were definitely the band that finally removed any doubt that “hair” rock was over. There were great alternative and punk bands going back into the 80s, but Nirvana’s commercial success changed what people were hearing in the radio.
I remember seeing the Smells Like Teen Spirit premiere on 120 Minutes. The next day, I came home from school, and I saw my sister watching it on MTV, and I said, "Oh they're playing _that song_ again." You already knew that this was something different.
Another band that you can react to is: Pixies, especially songs like Monkey gone to heaven or Where is my mind. Kim Deal, Pixies' basist was part of another band called Breeders, check their song Cannonball, a really fun song.
Lithium is a well known mood stabilising prescriptive drug for those with Manic Depression or Severe Depression. It’s aim is to keep mood neither too high, or low. So experiencing life highs are limited. Listen to the lyrics again as being someone knowing life can be slightly deadened experience if taking Lithium. It’s really deep with this interpretation.
I take lithium too and it doesn't make me numb. It's the best thing happened to me sense my illness broke out. I tend to have hypomania/mania every autumn (and every June) but now I just take little bit more of lithium for few weeks, take a sleeping pill on couple of nights and I'm normal. Instead of total caos. I can still feel all the normal feeling.
If you haven't done it yet you should react to their MTV Unplugged cover of The Man Who Sold the World!! My favorite song of theirs even though it's just a cover haha
@@elysehfm8797 AND LIL DID WE ALL KNOW HOW GOOD DAVID GROHL THE DRUMMER TURNED OUT TO BE WITH THE FOO FIGHTERS ...THAT ONE SONG ... BEST OF YOU IS SO DAMN GOOD
Lithium is one of the most widely used drugs for bipolar depression. He's talking about all ups & down manias of depression. Which he apparently was dealing with on a personal level. RiP Kurt ❤💔
Kurt described the song as a story of a man who copes with a breakup and the following depression and thoughts of suicide through religion. Though he wasn't necessarily seeing eye-to-eye with religion in general, he supported it if it meant preventing people from killing themselves. He himself was a borderline Buddhist, though he didn't follow any form of organised religion. He was a free spirit.
If you're ever interested, I left a comment here about my thoughts on "Lithium" and it's lyrics... I'd love to hear what you think.... I've seen interviews where Kurt said that the lyrics should mean whatever they mean to the listener.... I've heard/read interviews with many different musicians (inc., Robert Plant, Freddie Mercury, Eddie Vedder etc., etc.,) and they've all said the same thing.... Art is an expression of one's thoughts and feelings, and can be interpreted in many different ways and can mean many different things to each listener/viewer.... Peace. :)
@@michaelgilbert197 Of course art is always up to the listener to interpret it for themselves. However, the artist has their interpretation as well. I was simply saying what Kurt said his interpretation for it was.
@@bemused9522 I say Free Spirit in that he wasn't tied down by any religion or organised philosophy. He of course was not free of addiction, fame, mental illness, a sane wife (who might have killed him) and a bunch more shit.
@@TheBlackQueen Agreed... It is open to interpretation... it's art. I was honestly interested in your thoughts and was sharing mine if you were interested.... I'm a firm believer in the "always keep learning" methodology. Knowledge is a beautiful thing! Peace girl.... :)
I've been a Nirvana fan since I was in Jr.High, age 13. I'm now 45...so, a fan for 32 years! Damn, just typing that makes me feel ancient AF!!! Hahahaha XD I don't look 45 (almost 46) though...but I feel 65, lol Great reaction, as always! Btw.....I watched your live stream yesterday. Thx for the shout out. I'm the one that suggested reacting to Fleet Foxes! You definitely should. Have an awesome night, man~
IMO, he's talking about himself in this song (his inner turmoil) "I kiiled you, I'm not gonna crack" is Kurt talking about "killing" his "true" self and his disdain for becoming the "star" that he became. Music was his passion, NOT fame and wealth... Sadly, in following his passion he gained all the things he despised. The grunge guys had a unique and brilliant (Imo) way of "saying" what they were thinking/feeling. Grunge is known for it's sludgy/heavy instrumentation, lazy vocals and "messy" lyrics. It was a h@#% of a change from the '80's Hair band's.... And us late teen/early 20-somethings couldn't get enough of it!! "Heart Shaped Box" and "All Apologies" are 2 more of Nirvana's Big Hits you should check out.....
You said that you’ve never heard anything like this before. That’s because Nirvana is and still is one of the most influential group of musicians ever. My favorite live performance is “All Apologies” from MTV Unplugged. RIP Kurt ❤️
i was into rock or hard rock back them, and I used to buy everything that was starting to hit. they called garage a lot before saying it grunge., and I got this cassette. I was walking dawn the street to portslade train station, cause it was Friday and I was meeting some friends, while i was listening to that cassette with my brand new walkman from Sony. I was a lot more into gnr, the cult, Metallica, but the sound of that bass and those drums were impressive. That really hitted me. One week after everyone from the school wanted my tape to copy it. That was what we did back them, copy from others who bought the original And that was it for me, great album but not much into it. Six months after that, a Mexican friend that I had, told me to listen to soundgarden, and yes, that was the band and the album form me. I bought Pearl Jam's Ten a bit after that but soundgarden was the band and not nirvana. The thing was that a lot of pop and not rocker kids didn't like the rock scene back them so nirvana gave them a place to go.
Now this takes me back to a Pub in Camden, London. hearing this for the first time... and thinking what the?..... so much energy, and bass too... you get it... top tunes... 🤟
Kurt is the reason I picked up a guitar and started writing as a kid. It's still insane to me, watching people experience it for the first time is so beautiful❗
You may enjoy these songs... So Young - The teenagers Together - Tierra Movie Soundtracks Twist of Fate - Olivia Newton-John Tonight is What it Means to Be Young - Fire, Inc., From Streets of Fire Season in Hell - John Cafferty From Eddie and The Cruisers
Love your reactions! I'm bipolar so I have to take lithium. It is a very old and staple for the treatment of psych disorders. I don't know for sure but I would say Kurt has taken it at sometime in his life just from the song. I've been struggling over 30 years with this and take it twice a day. IIt helps me but others no. If we weren't kind of crazy we wouldn't be us! Rock on Kurt!
Not really created it. There were several bands earlier like Green River or Soundgarden (Kurt Cobain was a protege of Southgarden). Nirvana was I believe the first band of that kind who got big
Kurt did think he was ugly -- he was bullied relentlessly in school and hated how he looked -- wears layers or baggy clothes to hide his body -- He had a life long imaginary friend named Boddah --- in fact his suicide note is addressed to him -- He suffered with terrible stomach pain and If I remember right he was very picky about what he ate --- I think Kraft macaroni and cheese was his favorite because it didnt hurt him
He's young from a different generation and I would guess his knowledge of current music is better than yours and mine. His generation is ambushed by new music and media, due to the internet there is an overload of music, art, info, etc....that's unprecedented.
Nirvana changed the paradigm of rock music --- this band officially launched 1990s Grunge 'rock' by killing off the previous 1980s big hair and make-up glam-rock style that dominated rock music. They launched the 1990s and beyond. Many 1980s rocks bands that dominated the scene basically disappeared when Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" was released in 1991...lol And okay, technically "The Pixies" 1987 song (and album) "Where Is My Mind" can be considered the start of Grunge Rock, and even Kurt Cobain of Nirvana stated that his band was indeed heavily influenced by "The Pixies". That band ("The Pixies") at that time in 1987 hadn't seen the kind of widespread worldwide success that Nirvana saw with their debut album in 1991/1992. But "The Pixies" can indeed be credited with creating Grunge Rock in 1987, although the Grunge style didn't really dominate the charts until Nirvana popularized that genre of rock in the 1990s.
I assume you know, the drummer for Nirvana is Dave Grohl who fronts the Foo Fighters (formed by Dave after Nirvana disbanded after Kirk Cobain's death) which you have already reacted to! ❤️
Lithium is a medicine for manic depression. Kurt is probably describing how the lithium makes him feel. It nums your Highs and also your lows. So you feel flat, in a sence
Nirvana is the only band since the Beatles to have disrupted popular music in such a profound way. One could argue Nirvana was more impactful since they made most popular music look like trite crap with only one album.
One needed to be there in the early 90’s to understand. Kids who were younger in the 80’s and even poor people had a little money and then it all crashed and those kids grew up a little and grunge was born. Two of the worst things to come out of the 80’s was PSA’s that said just say no and stranger danger. Stranger danger was so wrong because 95 percent of child abductions were people the kids knew. Just say no was a joke. These kids came out of the 80’s in pain and just wanted to escape. The United States lost the war on drugs. The lead singer died of a heroin driven suicide. So much pain. Not saying it right but there has to be a better way.
Lithium is sometimes used for treating some mental state issues. So you got the emotions right, just imagine all of them jumbling around your head in a big mess half the time. That what this song is to me. The struggle not to crack. And if we're talking Nirvana, my favorite of theirs is actually a cover of "The man who sold the world". Some of my favorite guitar work of all time.
I remember when I was young my older brother used to use this song for their alarm clock, it could typically fit in with your dreams at the very start with the intro, but as soon as the hook came in, it was a pretty rude awakening for the whole house lol
Last upload for today. Be sure to catch up on all the other uploads and please like, comment and share if you can. Thank you!

The best.
Great tune. Great album.
They're all great. 😉

I must be one of the few that prefers the studio version.
@@kevinhayden4605 no, you are one of many who prefer the studio version.
Kurt Cobain had an uncanny talent for infectious songwriting
Lithium is a mood stabilizer that they prescribe to people who are Bipolar, might help you with the lyrics.

Nevermind is a masterpiece almost 30 years old. I remember well that 1991, the music changed forever.
@ALICE IN CHAINS and Soundgarden, obviously
Every single cut on it!
@@stefanocastellani6826 soundgarden was the best first album from that era

There was so many Grunge bands + Alternative music was popular too by being in the right place at the right time
This band changed the planet literally in the early 90's.
True that!!
Bleach was a beautifully disgusting album 😔
no they did not.
@@Medes06 in the music industry at least yeah
@@gsly6081 yes they did
You should do "Polly", it's one of the deepest lyrics from Nirvana
YES.
Polly is sad!
Nirvana, Skunk Anansie, Pearl Jam, Guns n Roses, Green Day and Rage Against the Machine were the sounds of my teens - so much angst!!! Lol
Yeah, also Metallica, Faith No More, Beastie Boys and many more, there was so much great music back then.
@@_Shadoh_ Brilliant music. Nothing even close to it for this generation’s teenagers.
The Wildhearts were my go to 90s band, still are tbh...x
Skunk Anansie were amazing!
@@fogg2837 I know! Played Paranoid and Sunburnt to death!
Mtv unplugged blew my mind back then incredible performance too young man r.i.p. kurt i wish you knew how many people you reached ,sadly missed 😔😔
You Know You're right by Nirvana. It was their last official record.
"Lounge Act" is a great Nirvana song with some epic bass
Heart Shaped Box next please!
If this came out today 30 years later it would still be groundbreaking! Miss you Kurt! ❤💔
I suggest the MTV Unplugged video of "Where Did You Sleep Last Night" for your next Nirvana reaction.
Another great Nirvana song where you can really appreciate the bass is "Come As You Are" 🤘🏼
Killing Joke agrees. 😀
My favourite band of the 90s 👊🏼
"The man who sold the world" is amazing.
one of my faves as well. an odd case of a cover being as good as the original imo
Yes, the unplugged version!
@@Iris-gy2mi Live and loud version pretty good too
Surely the best David Bowie's cover ever made.
"He called you ugly too." 😂 Nirvana in a nutshell..
Please react to Drain You by Nirvana, such an underrated song!!
He called me ugly. 😂
Another band that you can react to is: Pixies, especially songs like Monkey gone to heaven or Where is my mind. Kim Deal, Pixies' basist was part of another band called Breeders, check their song Cannonball, a really fun song.
Or Where is my Mind, Pixies. That's brilliant too 👍
Would love for you to do Everlong by Foo Fighters next

Yea baby!! Great reaction. Nirvana flipped us our head and ushered in 90s grunge.
I'd have to recommend territorial pissings and lounge act. Tbh though, any track from nevermind album is epic!

He is GOAT. There was no melodic music after the beatles. This changed everything, it cannot be overstated
Whole Nevermind album is amazing ✌️❤️
It has always been my favourite Nirvana’s song. Thanks Jay!
A lot of this video was filmed at Reading Festival 1991 - was lucky enough to be there 😀
still gives me goosebumps.
His songs were supposed to be heavy, but they all had a great melody at its core.
The essence and masters of the grunge movement. Another song I haven’t heard in so long and still know all the words. Powerful song.
This song is always as good as the first time you hear it.
If you like that Novoselic bass try "Come As You Are".
“Come As You Are” is a rip off of “Eighties” by Killing Joke.
Check out Nirvana Unplugged. Songs like Man who sold the world, about a girl, where did you sleep last night

Try some Pixies. “Monkey Gone to Heaven” and “Here Comes Your Man”
They were a big influence on Nirvana.

And okay, technically "The Pixies" 1987 song (and album) "Where Is My Mind" can be considered the start of Grunge Rock, and even Kurt Cobain of Nirvana stated that his band was indeed heavily influenced by "The Pixies". That band ("The Pixies") at that time in 1987 hadn't seen the kind of widespread worldwide success that Nirvana saw with their debut album in 1991/1992. But "The Pixies" can indeed be credited with creating Grunge Rock in 1987, although the Grunge style didn't really dominate the charts until Nirvana popularized that genre of rock in the 1990s.
Listen to Courtney Love's (Kurt's widow) band Hole and their song "Celebrity skin".
I assume you know, the drummer for Nirvana is Dave Grohl who fronts the Foo Fighters (formed by Dave after Nirvana disbanded after Kirk Cobain's death) which you have already reacted to! ❤️
You know that “drummer” is David Grohl, lead singer from foo fighters..? Right?
Aye bro jay you gotta do “in bloom” or “you know your right” both another great songs by nirvana
Lithium is a medicine for manic depression. Kurt is probably describing how the lithium makes him feel. It nums your Highs and also your lows. So you feel flat, in a sence
Similar time as this, try Black Hole Sun by Soundgarden
Nirvana is the only band since the Beatles to have disrupted popular music in such a profound way. One could argue Nirvana was more impactful since they made most popular music look like trite crap with only one album.
One needed to be there in the early 90’s to understand. Kids who were younger in the 80’s and even poor people had a little money and then it all crashed and those kids grew up a little and grunge was born. Two of the worst things to come out of the 80’s was PSA’s that said just say no and stranger danger. Stranger danger was so wrong because 95 percent of child abductions were people the kids knew. Just say no was a joke. These kids came out of the 80’s in pain and just wanted to escape. The United States lost the war on drugs. The lead singer died of a heroin driven suicide. So much pain. Not saying it right but there has to be a better way.
Lithium is sometimes used for treating some mental state issues. So you got the emotions right, just imagine all of them jumbling around your head in a big mess half the time. That what this song is to me. The struggle not to crack.
And if we're talking Nirvana, my favorite of theirs is actually a cover of "The man who sold the world". Some of my favorite guitar work of all time.
It's about a man who is bipolar/manic depressive. Lithium is what they give you to ease your symptoms
I remember when I was young my older brother used to use this song for their alarm clock, it could typically fit in with your dreams at the very start with the intro, but as soon as the hook came in, it was a pretty rude awakening for the whole house lol
Check out "Something in the Way" by Nirvana
