Reading 91 or Monsters of Spex the next day. When Nirvana was still "underground", Kurt was not famous and really happy playing. I don't think you can top those 2 shows in terms of pure energy
This song was never played. As was stated on MTV Unplugged, this is the first album, most people don't own it. He was letting everybody know they were bandwagoners... the real shit, they never heard. It's really hard to believe almost 30 years and ya'll still don't get it. How appropriate here we are now entertain us. I mean the cover of Nevermind was a baby swimming for money... genetics for cash, and that's what his daughter became. Grow up people. This is dumb, EVERYBODY SHOULD GET IT BY NOW.
Two secrets no one asked still: how was Dave managing to works out knots from his hair after a show, and how did he remember the setlist when he never had one by his drumkit
People never notice, but Dave Grohl is the best drummer that I have ever heard ever in my life. He slams the drums I don’t know a drummer that sounds as great as Dave I don’t really like the Foo Fighters or the style. I really love his drumming skills. I hear it every set
my friend the point that nirvana wanted to make was the inperfection everyone has as a human being. not the perfect hair not the pefect colthes not the perfect notes in a song not perfect nothing.. you cant listen to nirvana and say that everything is perfect because thats how the world works. noone and nothing can be perfetct, espesially if we talk about music like this ...thats the whole point: to be simple and not perfect because you cant (no hate im saying this with love)
Yeah man, they gave ZERO fucks about appearance. That was the whole vibe of the early 90s, coming out of the hair metal years where appearance was everything. I still remember wearing a flannel over a white T-shirt that I drew on with a magic marker, shredded jeans with stains and two different Chuck Taylor shoes to school (one was black, the other was furry leopard). The whole idea was to not give a fuck. It's so odd for folks my age to see kids trying to make it some high-fashion today. Because the whole idea was to kind of look like a disorganized messy junkie. 😄😄
@@leaguedude5313 Lmao, you’re ‘deeping’ what I said way too much. I’m also guessing English isn’t your first language because what you wrote was barely readable. I was referring to the graphic design of the band. The font used for the band and the aesthetic of the albums/singles/even bootlegs. A lot of it was Kurt’s own personal paintings and drawings. Of course the music being the most crucial aspect. I have no idea what you’re alluding to tbh. I’m talking about my personal taste which has nothing to do with people’s “imperfections”, or whatever you’re referring to.
Broo, netflix cancelled the most beautiful serie "i am not okay with this" and im gonna cry, wtf, you just remembered me that, and all i have to say is im not okay with this
When people try to criticize Kurt and Nirvana for not being technical or complex enough, they fail to realize that is the exact opposite of what grunge was supposed to be and this song is a perfect example of exactly what it *is* supposed to be
Zetta Ahh My Bro went to Many Nirvana Concerts 'Stage Dived' the lot..What an Experience!! I hate him for not taking me :"( Although, I might ve been just a lil' too young..Not imo mind
I heard about Nevermind by reading a review in my hometown Sunday paper The Chicago Tribune a few months before moving up to Milwaukee to go to art school. The other record they were raving about was Gish. The next day I bought both. Once I got to Milwaukee, there were still flyers pasted on the walls of a little punk rock club called “The Unicorn” from a show back in November. It was Nirvana and Soundgarden on the same bill. And I missed it. They never played a club like that again. I never saw either of them live. I was that close.
I love the drums on this tune! It's forever one of my favorites. It's dope on the record with Dale Crover of The Melvins but extra special we have this live version with Dave!
Now 2024 , grew up listening to Nirvana I’m 43 years old now still the most iconic music never has any other artists had such a unique sound. Thanks Kurt & Nirvana
I have an early nirvana bootleg when they first got dave and during the whole show whenever Dave would try to say something krist would start blabbing int9 his mic. So funny

Here in 2022 and only first heard this song 2 days ago, shot right up there with some of my favourites straight away! I’ve always loved nirvana’s most popular hits from an early age (singing smells like teen spirit on singstar when I was like 7/8) but never really delved into them and listened to full albums, boy am I regretting that now, but in my opinion, good music never ages and it’s never too late to fall in love with a band 🤘
Not only did Kurt write some awesome iconic pop songs... but when it came to drop tuning guitar riffs he also wrote some pretty heavy killer riffs.. like Floyd the Barber, Beeswax, and School. Songs like Floyd can almost pass off as like doom or stoner rock.
Kids I can tell by your comments that you have been taught how to listen to music and what is real music and not I can also tell that she did not grow up during this time and I understand but please do not say stuff like that if you really have no idea, how many bands can you say that you have heard install live that were as bad ass than the actual album most industrialized bands actually fucking suck. If you sound better live it doesn’t matter how dirty your guitar riffs are as your swag and your style and what you make people feel I’m by no means being mean I’m just telling you to look at it differently. There’s a reason he’s dead. The label makes more when geniuses are dead because of this very here controversy.

Okay my mind is blown. I always thought the chorus was "I was shamed" but here he is saying "I was shaved"
Late response but Kurt is known for changing lyrics in live shows. The album version he could very well be saying "shamed"
Depending on the version it’s “Im ashamed“ or “I was shaved.”

@@Condemned782 like:
“load up on drugs,
kill your friends”, instead of:
“load up on guns,
