Shout out to my dude in the middle, educating these guys on Kurt and the bands influence. Awesome reaction!
That man is cultured.
@@lizmccarthy-edwards2115 intellence shouldnt be abt what music you listen to or your personality. Its abt what you can do with the information you do have
@@r.b7979 Uh. Yes.
@@lizmccarthy-edwards2115 i think its quite unintelligent of you to think that. Literally what does music taste have to do with your intelligence?
Most over rated band ever. Every song was the same.. mumble the lyrics softly then scream out the chorus. Every single song. Some how teenagers translates that into being angry and deep.
"How do you know who Nirvana is?"
The real question is how do you NOT know who Nirvana is?! I'm glad you all enjoyed them.
Because we’re that old
As he said "sorry I'm not cultured":) they knows black music from the 90s as they should.. Still they wanna know more, they appreciate it, enjoy it... Can't really say the same about uncultured white Americans, how much do they wanna know about black music?
B/c they're young, what's wrong with you?
@@veronicajade20 bro, they're still a huge band. Idk anyone who doesn't know who they are and I'm a few years younger then them
@@wmvnotmp4 bro, they're clearly not huge to _everyone_
The day this dropped on MTV, it changed music forever.... Nirvana killed mainstream Heavy Metal and gave birth to grunge/punk mainstream. Literally shook our world in high school.
Punk came from 70s Britain.
@@ryiin punk came from Detroit in the late 60s
Sure did! God I miss those days!
Mainstream "heavy metal". metal was popular back in the mud 80's and early 90's but I would never have considered metal mainstream..
Grunge Rock was born with Nirvana
The guy in the middle knew the score, knew what a huge deal this song was. You could see it in his face. So happy the other guys loved this epic song.
Loved that phrase at 4:29 "they really used instruments and stuff". It struck me because its quite true. A lot of modern music is programmed.
I know!… I was a teenager in the 90’s so… that just means I’m old LOL
It was pretty funny...Wait until I tell them we used to have our ice delivered by horse and wagon...
@@jonathanlocke6404 😂
@@heather000burton nah, you’re far from old
Honestly, this has been the main complaint among Rockers towards other genres for at least 30 - 35 years
Three minutes of Nirvana and already inspired to start a band, that's awesome. Kurt wanted to inspire people to get into punk rock ethics, start bands, and grow up to destroy this corrupt system.
Daddy
Destroy the system its 1977 and the consumers are about to destroy the system
Instead he joined the 27 year old club
nirvana made me and my friends start a band when we where 14 or 15, we sucked, but had a ton of fun, and two of us indeed became pretty good musicians..
K but he killed himself ruining his daughters system.
In the early 90s, four bands emerged from the obscure Seattle underground, and took the world by storm. They were:
Nirvana
Alice in Chains
Soundgarden
Pearl Jam
Collectively, they were known as "Grunge Music."
Please check all four of these bands out. Every one of them, shook the world to it's very knees.
Facts! Mother love bone could’ve been a 5th one too if it wasn’t for the lead singer Andrew wood’s suicide before their debut album released.
A lot of these bands would name Mudhoney as their mentors who were founded out of Green River being the original grunge band.
@@milhouse7145 Mark arm, the originator 💯
I thought andrew died of an overdose
@@ronirave From what i remembered it was a proposal overdose from heroin.
I'm Gen X (born late 70s). This was our teen music. I remember seeing Nirvana in the PNW sometime in '91-ish. Several other Seattle bands were on the bill. Every one of them great performers and accessible to their music fans. What a time to be young!
Yup and now all those places are filled with kids who don’t know their own gender 😂
"they really use instruments" that hit different.. idk why but it did lol
We live in a dark, sad time for music
Yea it summarized things cleanly
Right?! Usually it needs a laptop to make a song nowadays
This is why I barely listen to any music made post 2005 lol
Fucking sad
Fun Fact: Nirvana's drummer is Dave Grohl, he is the lead singer of the Foo Fighters and (in my opinion) he is one of the best musical talents ever
They should react to The Foo Fighters ‘Pretender’
@@cristywhite484 and Monkey Wrench, and Breakout, and learning to fly
Dave in Hall of Fame twice
He said he can't play drums cuz he can't read music he just repeats stuff from disco bands
Dave Grohl is genius! Thanks for the recognition of one of the greatest musical influences of our time.
Love how Nirvana makes everyone want to be in a rock band! Awesome
They could try Rock Band 2 if that guy wants to form a rock band.
I love how Brandon says, "When he killed himself..then corrects and says, When they found him dead"... TRUTH Brandon, there has always been an issue with how he died- And he is right with wanting them to know who Motley Crew is! Great rock there, as well!! Good videos,guys!
Shout out to the dude in the gray hoodie in the back who actually knew who Kurt Cobain and Nirvana were.. props to you for listening to all kinds of music.
This song is like if primal scream therapy was a rollercoaster.
You guys should try Nirvana Unplugged, let’s you really see how incredible they truly were.
TOTALLY AGREE
Facts
Their unplugged work was always my favorite.
Yes need to
Absolutely 💯
I am a 50 year old white woman from South Carolina and you guys make my day. I get up every morning just to see what y'all are up too. Keep doing what you do!!
Guy in the middle always shares great insight and knowledge.....he knows his music across all genres!
All genres, yeah? I want to know what he knows about I Prevail, Bad Omens, Ice Nine Kills....etc
@@tcpixiegeek6147 ask him
You dont know how people lost their minds when this came out in the 90s. It was unlike anything people really knew about. Pixies had this soft to hard to soft music style but nirvana just took it next level imo
I like the comparison.
Pixie were one of their inspirations.
Yes, love me some Pixies!
This is actually a direct rip off of a pixies song. I can’t remember which one. I might go find it and post it.
4:23 The "wow, music has really changed, they were actually using instruments, bro" just makes me cry
This one song completely changed the landscape of music when it came out. It simultaneously killed the hair metal genre of the 80's and kickstarted the grunge genre of the 90's. One band, one song, changed the world. Then they followed it up with several more, and their MTV Unplugged concert is one of the best of all time.
Then it went the way of disco. Least disco was happy
@@chrischar9428I thought disco was in the 70s lol
@@TR13400 umm what. Who said it wasnt
@@chrischar9428 oh I thought you were saying disco came after this haha
Then grunge died quickly.
This song almost singlehandedly changed the musical landscape of my high school years overnight.
‘They really use instruments & stuff..’ 😂😂 I. Am. Dead.
Lol
For real!
Watching rap/hip hop fans reacting to rock for the first time is just as fun as watching metal heads reacting to rap for the first time
Everyone always finds something to appreciate and respect
Much love, subscribing
Not me rap is complete shit
If we could only apply this to everyone in life. If we could all just learn to listen to each other...just stop, and listen. Really listening is an act of love ❤...
💯
Music is music ❤️
♥️♥️♥️♥️
Respect to that brother in the middle he knows his sh!t man . Respect to NIRVANA - this band changed music at the time it was 💯🔥🔥🔥🎶❤
I was at a HS weekend party in 1991. Nirvanas “ In Bloom” was playing on the radio. The room fell silent. We all bobbed our heads and tapped our feet. At the end of the song. One guy stands up and said.”Holy shit!” It was magical. A few weeks later. Everyone was wearing flannel and gone were the neon color shirts and 80s hair band hair. The music spoke to us kids who had boomer parents who gave us the keys to the house and were at work all of time. We hated our parents and would rebelled in anger..
Guy in the Grenada shirt, when told he's about to break his neck rocking out, says "this is how the song makes me feel". You get it my friend! You get it!
Fun facts about the video : Two days before the shoot, the band handed out flyers asking fans to appear in the video, while the LA radio station KXLU also made an on-air announcement call-out for extras. The band’s flyer read: “Nirvana needs YOU… You should be 18 to 25 years old and adopt a high-school persona, ie preppy, punk, nerd, jock.
The cheerleaders were girls recruited from local strip clubs.
They did the same thing with the flyer at the Paladium show where they opened for Dinosaur Jr.
crazy fact. my brother was 18 at the time of this snd he was gonna go. was signed up and everything but the day of shooting he couldn't get a ride. lol
years later he ran into kurt cobain during his between albums when kurt lived in LA for he was walking into a liquor store and kurt was walking out with a lil bag. during his purple hair era. he stayed in an apartment nearby.
What's even better is that Tony Hawk showed up as an extra for Weird Al's "Smells Like Nirvana".
Lol gotta love the 90’s man
@@JoyGrenade Never knew that...interesting. Frances Bean Cobain is actually currently in a relationship with Tony Hawk's son.
I enjoy the young man in the middle. He seems like he truly listens to the music to understand it. I feel like he has a deep soul and would be a great person to have a deep conversation with. I wish great things for you.
There are people who don't know who Nirvana is? Holy shit...
I was working in a restaurant with some older folks when he died. None of them had ever heard of Nirvana or Kurt.
Them: This is old-school
Me: cries in middle-aged
This came out when I was about 13 and, outside of the Seattle music scene, was most people’s introduction to grunge music. It’s the genre which pretty much defined my high school years. We didn’t know what hit us because it was so different. Check out the drummer, Dave Grohl’s band Foo Fighters. “The Pretender” is a good one to start with.
About ten years ago, I was talking to a teenager. I asked him his name. He said "Cobain."
That REALLY made me feel old.
🤣
Being an original old-school Nirvana fan, and them being my favorite band, I enjoyed seeing the younger generation becoming keen to such sick music!! I also loved how the one dude knew a bit about Kurt, and Nirvana! I'll definitely watch more here if you do more Nirvana, and you should do some of their live videos too. Korn, System of a Down, and Slipknot are a few phenomenal bands, if you haven't already checked them out, you should!! It will be worth it! If you need song suggestions from any of these bands, let me know. Take care.
That is also why I subscribed just now, the same reasons! Their music has inspired me over the decades and has seeped into my music a bit here and there, I even added bass and drums (played by me with real instruments) to an unreleased Nirvana song - it is on my YT channel. (The song is called "What more can I say?" ----->> th-cam.com/video/OZpvNaqfSzw/w-d-xo.html It has Kurt's vocals and guitar. It was added into an album Nirvana released in an alternate reality in the 2000s here on YT too! lol But they messed up the EQ and it sounds better on my upload. I plan to re-record the drums at the very least soonish as I am not happy with them these days, I am far better at drumming now than back then! I think my bass playing is still okay in this song though.
@@Defensive_Wounds Very cool!! Yes, I'll definitely check out your link later!! I'll add it to my tonight's playlist. They've been super important in my life since I was a preteen, and they still stand as the best today, to me and SO many others!! They definitely, along with a couple other bands throughout the years, kept me breathing during many of my darkest days!! I love seeing how they've as a band, and as individuals, influenced others then, and now. The ones that hit your heart super deep, they always stay with you!!
I love Nirvana & K.C, they should do those bands u suggested/recommend as I'm from the Midwest lmao.
great bands
This song and video changed the world and my life. It instantly made all the hair bands look stupid and shifted the course of rock and roll. I will never forget it! My music buddies and I all bought instruments and made a band all because of this song. It was an awesome part of my life.
Man, you guys are making me feel old as hell. I was 14 when this came out. I originally hated it because I was listening to rap at the time, but Nirvana has been my favorite band since 92 and the reason why I'm a musician.
This guy on the back dictates so much respect by simply being respectful himself. That's a huge lesson to so many people...
If you didn't know, the drummer of Nirvana is now the singer of Foo Fighters.
I became a full on grunge girl after I heard Nirvana the first time. They changed so many of us. Thank you for this!
I feel simultaneously old, proud of the incredible musicians I grew up with, and happy I rocked grunge in real-time.
Right! I think I've commented like 10 times on this video. We were so lucky! (Class of 98!)
This song is like an anthem for our generation....changed my life growing up.
I was in high school when this came out. I don't feel old.
Same! 😂👵🏻
You don't look that old ,but I believe you. Grunge is King!
"We should totally make a rock band" greatness 🙌
That's usually how it starts 😂❤
It’s NOT the 80s. It’s the 90s. Nice to see Kurt put smiles on your faces. REAL LEGENDS NEVER DIE.
it's 91, so he's not far off. But it is still interesting right? It's so early in the decade, but it's still so defining of the entire decade. So different from the 80s and so definitive of the 90s
Been watching y’all off and on all morning, subscribes, digging y’all’s energy, keep it up!
Lived in Seattle in 1980 and 90s. It was an incredible music scene with so many talented musicians forming bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, and so many others. Could see the bands for $6 and it made it fun going from band to band in one night. You got to see these beautiful men walking around the city during the day. Crazy time and loved it.
Waow !!
imagine getting to see them in their prime for just $6 😭😭😭
I'm so jealous
Wouldn't pay 6 for all three
Alice in chains
This was pretty funny lol.
This song literally CHANGED THE WORLD!!! Even the rap/hiphop world!
Jay Z has lyrics from Smells like teen spirit too LOL
@@jsusushs1933 Nirvana and especially Cobain is mentioned all over hip hop. There's a rapper that named himself Black Cobain. Another producer named himself Cash Cobain.
Y'all are so adorable! I was born in 1957, so I'm ancient, but I did get to live through the dawn of rock n' roll. I get so much joy from watching your reaction videos. You remind me of some of the high school students I used to teach (or try to) back in the day. Much appreciation for you and what you 💛 ✨ 💓 ❤
Love the guy in the backs knowledge about these older bands. Great job man in the back
lmfao the guy in the back getting pissed his friends don’t know who kurt is is literally me 😂
YES!! Finally some grunge for the GenXers!! This song and grunge saved rock and roll! Grunge was a sub-genre of alternative. The typical "grunge" song was driven by heavy instrument distortion and angst-filled lyrics that a lot of us young folks were drawn to. As I've posted before, to completely understand the impact grunge had on Gen X, you have to understand the prior decade, the 80's. Most of us had parents who were busy climbing up the corporate ladder or we had one parent struggling to make ends meet! Either way we were alone a lot. The music was horrible in my opinion, a lot of one-hit wonders, pop princesses, and dudes in bright spandex, eyeliner and big, over-processed hair. The lyrics were empty and my friends and I couldn't relate to them. When grunge made it's way to the midwest, most of us became grunge. It became a "look" and we were all the way in! Finally, there were lyrics that spoke to us! A group of young midwest GenX misfits finally found their place. It's sad that most of the "grunge" OGs are gone! I miss that era the most! It was a magical time to be young!
Andrew Wood - RIP
Kurt Cobain - RIP
Layne Staley - RIP
Chris Cornell - RIP
Scott Weiland - RIP
I have to mention Chester-RIP - he came later but he spoke to my soul! I hope Heaven has a stage and off to the right, a pit!!
Well said!! 👏🏻
THIS!!!
The thing is, music that you would have related to had been available the entire time. Grunge really just marked the time when it was presented in a way that it could be profitable. There were plenty of 'misfit kids' in the 80s listening to Husker Du, Sonic Youth, the Melvins, etc. REM had had 80s success but was more of a jangle pop band than a rock band. Kurt was influenced by these bands but also the Beatles. When he put the two influenced together it exploded. I bet that dude in the back who said he couldn't relate with the Beatles would groove hard on some later harder stuff like Revolution and Helter Skelter. It really isn't far to go from songs like those and Smells like Teen Spirit. Kurt was even self-conscious that Teen Spirit sounded like a punk version of More than a Feeling by Boston and no one was ever more arena rock than Boston was.
Well said nirvana saved rock. PanterA saved heavy metal
MzLuna Blu, thanks for putting Chester in there. Man was beautiful!
It's such a shame seeing those names, knowing what music lost when their voices were silenced. RIP.
Sometimes I wish they would listen more than they talk.. Nirvana are LEGENDS!!
Shut
No kidding
It makes me so happy that y’all are open minded enough to listen to everything. Y’all rule!
Came here for Nirvana, never seen you guys before, but props to you all for embracing and appreciating quality music even if its outside your comfort zone. Mad respect to the guy at the back who knew about Kurt and Nirvana and seemed to have genuine admiration showing himself to be a broadminded, cultured individual. I wish you all every success with your channel, and i am def going to check out more of your vids.
It makes me happy to see that ppl are still discovering Nirvana and loving it!!
😂 this was fun to watch and as huge grunge guy it made me smile lol I remember my first time hearing this song back in the early 90s and every group of friends has one friend that knows what you don’t and educates you lol mad respect to the one friend
Kurt came from nothing and changed everything. Love the guy in the middle bringing the Nirvana lessons. "Our little group has always been and always will until the end..."
Ah, the music of my youth. Nevermind came out when I was 17 and changed my life.
same man and it sucks that he did him self in like that
Sophomore in high school. The freedom of a drivers license and Nevermind in my tape deck. Good times.
Guys, the Beatles are timeless. Give them a chance-they started it all.
They created Pop 🥰
One of Kurt’s biggest influences was the Beatles
@@korrinebennell9938 a blessing and a curse
Never liked them but i think im introduced in a bad way to them so can you recommend some songs?
@@amiralinikakhtar4766 While my Guitar Gently Weeps, Come Together, Hey Jude
There's A LOT of music you don't know. Props to middle dude. Kurt Cobain pretty much started the grunge/alternative Era in the 90's. He didn't like being famous, he just wanted to play music.
Again, so fun to see you guys. Grunge rock!!!! I was in my early 30's back then. It's fun hearing these classic hits with you guys. Yes!!! I'm old. You are so entertaining 🤣 😂 I do love you exploring other genre's and eras of music. There's so much in this world.
This is my era, I was in highschool when grunge was everything!
Thank you guys for venturing out
You won’t be sorry!
The drummer, Dave Grohl, formed the Foo Fighters after Kurt Cobain’s death. He is the lead singer and also plays guitar. They go hard.
YESSSSS LOVE FF
Check out these boys watching the Foos for the first time - the pretender video. One helluva reaction. They didn’t put it together until the comments. I highly recommend it.
Once again loving the CartierFamily! Also a huuuuuuge fan of Nirvana, can’t wait to watch all they videos! Don’t see a lot of us blacks liking Nirvana and Linkin Park.
Lawd I could sooo put yall on to some music and artists that will take your mind to another level and never want to return 🙂 I'm glad yall are experiencing these classics
Dude sitting in the back really knows his sh**! Much respect!
The drummer then became the lead of Foo Fighters.
Plus check out Children Of The Korn ft Ice Cube Enjoy🤘
Love you guys. I feel like an old man and you give me hope for the future.
This song revolutionised metal and in an instant ended hair metal.
Nobody heard anything like this before these guys!
Watching you guys enjoy that made me truly smile. One of the top 5 most important songs all time. 🤟🏼
I vibe with bro at the back so hard 😂 like hanging out with my younger mates “how TF you don’t know who ..... is?!”
Subbed you guys real. Have a wonderful day broski. Crazy this banger came out in 1991
Got me bumping my head with yall hell yeah nirvana is a vibe
Don't knock the age of music guys there are awesome bands from 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s
First time I found out the drummer, David Grohl, ended up making his own band, The Foo Fighters, after Nirvana was no more.. still one of my favorite music facts.
I love watching guys who have no clue about a certain type of music or a certain band get introduced to something new and great. Don’t know why you guys pull me in but you do!
Makes me smile watching y’all feeding your heads with new to you music. I was 16 when he was shot. Miss his genuineness. Have a good one be safe and be easy.
Literally broke the metal scene. Overnight, once this album was released big hair metal was dead and grunge was king.
It rocks hard as metal but means it… raw yet melodic
u high as fuck
Thats an oversimplification and factually untrue. While there is no doubt Nirvana and the grunge movement helped surplant hair metal it was not the only factor and it certainly wasn't overnight. Nevermind was released in September of 1991. On March 31st, 1992 Def Leppard released Adrenalize. It debuted at #1 on the Billboard charts and stayed there for 5 weeks and spent 65 weeks on the chart. Poison had hit records in 1991-1993, Bon Jovi in 1992 and bands/singers like Aerosmith, Kiss, Alice Cooper and Ozzy Osbourne adopted hair metal styles and lasted well into the 90s. While grunge helped and Nirvana launched grunge it was only one factor in the changing of the guard in music.
@@servantoftwilight2951 Nirvana is so overrated.
@@servantoftwilight2951 I'll take Alice N Chains anyday
Fuck I miss grunge music
🤟🏻
I'm convinced dude in the dodgers jersey lived under a rock
I remember the first time I ever saw this video..I was FIVE. I knew even at that age, that I was watching something spectacular. Nirvana is still one of my fav bands. Checkout “Zombie” by the Cranberries or some Alice In Chains “Would?”, “Man In A Box”, “Rooster”, and much more!
When Dolores referenced Kurt in one of her songs it made me choke the first time I heard it..
Alice in Chains and Cranberries, most definitely!!! Along with Pearl Jam, Linkin Park, Korn, Metallica, P.O.D., Papa Roach, etc... and this list can just go on and on, seriously......
AIC live at The Moore, "Love Hate Love"
Nirvana changed music almost overnight. High School was different after Kurt Cobain changed rock music. Everyone was completely blown away by the grunge movement. We had Pac and Nirvana both putting out new albums at the same time and it was not anything like white people bought Nirvana and black people bought Pac. Everybody bought both. We use to stay up to watch Yo Mtv Raps and MTV Rocks all to watch Pac, Snoops "What's My Name" and Nirvana "Smells Like Teen Spirit" and then Kurt Cobain died and a year and half later, Pac died, Brad from Sublime died, Shannon Hoon from Blind Melon died and Biggie died and for awhile music died, only songs on the radio were from artists that died until Dr. Dre revived rap and alternative metal revived rock music. Literally the best of times followed by the worst of times into it was resurrected by Lincoln Park, Limp Bizkit, Bone Thugs, Green Day, i wish everyone could have experienced that time. Political Correctness was mocked, bullying was a right of passage, girls were down to chil but werent thots and there was no gender confusion or weird stuff like that. Goth and Emos were a transient fad that went away.... I miss those rebellious times when nobody was afraid to flip a bird to the system
I feel like we're more diverse back then. The proof is, u gotta see mtv charts then vs now. Back then there's rap, rnb, pop, rock, metal, alternative, indie, electro and something like enya or latin songs. The charts now mostly just hip hop or pop.
When u say Dre revived hip hop, where u referencing Em?
@@GwenMahdi at first i thought you said divisive and was baffled at that but ya, diversity was respected. The area i grew up in, Atlanta, didn't really have race...we had cultures and everyone was welcome. Of course people were more drawn to the music of their culture but I've been to countless rock shows and have seen every race of people in the pit. Obviously rap concerts were packed with every culture. Im not sure why more white people liked rap compared to black people liking rock and i don't really care but i love seeing black reactors discovering the type of rock that was special and spawned a bunch of knock off generic copy cats. How many bands can you think of that sound like Green Day?? Probably a lot. How many sound like Nirvana? None.. Lol. Literally zero. Even if a band uses similar chords and method of song creation, they can mimic Nirvana, just like nobody can imitate Pac. Artists are special when they can't be imitated and only emulated. But you're point is solid. Everybody had something for them and many musicians combined elements of differing styles. Sublime is a perfect amalgamation of regge, rock, hip-hop, and punk brought together with soul and passion. Blind Melon was the same way. They used to figure out how to cool as hell stuff with musicians, and now it's all synthesized and sampled and lazy to an extent. Music use to bring people together from all cultures and now artist can get cancelled for "appropriating" styles of music they genuinely love and that's sad man. It's gonna stop people from being creative unless they have balls to not care, lol. I guess the credo for an artist really is "Give Zero Fucks"
@@451mn3 no, i would include Eminem but i guess i was saying that he played a pivotal role in keeping music alive, along with artists ranging from Outcast to Master P and all the music in between that were household names.
I am not at all saying Eminem single handedly saved rap in any way at all. Dre was able to adapt and continue making flame beats and still is. From before NWA to today, he's stayed relevant and had been the mastermind behind so many artists. Im not gonna start naming them off. But i will admit that Dre taking Eminem under his wing was a sign of genius. He could hear the potential and forsee the controversy and popularity it would bring. And Dre and Eminem creating what they did is probably the greatest example of how detrimental racism has been and continues to be. A black man and a white man became brothers because their love for music was stronger then the fear of being mocked or ridiculed for collaborating. Real artists have to give zero fucks to create their best art. Beethoven created his 4th movement of his 9th symphony The Ode to Joy after going completely deaf and was depressed and broke and literally robbed of the one thing most important concerning music.... hearing it. The papers he read kept saying things like "The End of an Era" "Beethoven is no more" "Beethoven Forced to Pass the Torch to the New Geniuses of Composing Music" I remember seeing so many things like that and what he did is in my opinion the most amazing act of defiance. He sat down knowing people were laughing at him for announcing a new symphony and he arguably created the most beautiful piece music that exist and he did it as a big middle finger to everyone who gave up on him and moved on to other composers. When the 9th Symphony debuted, just as the last 5 minutes were starting, Beethoven emerged from behind the curtains as another conductor obviously had to conduct the performance. He looked like an unkempt mad man and grabbed the baton and started violently waving and lashing it thru the air and gesticulating and releasing all the anger and rage and resentment he had toward those who doubted him. The first chair violinist had to tap him on the shoulder as it had ended but Beethoven was lost in his own mind. The violinist turned him around and sadly he couldn't hear it but he could see the packed venue all on their feet waving their coats and throwing flowers on the stage. He received 5 15 minute standing ovations. It was customary at the time for royalty to only receive 3 that were forced. Police had to start forcing people out but many refused and were arrested. Beethoven watched them but he never bowed.
I like to think he quietly said to himself "Fuck all of you for doubting me! Im Beethoven and you're all nobody and the world will forget you and i will live forever" or something like that. But an hour and fifteen minute standing ovation for a piece of music written while deaf to tell the world that he can do what he did without being able to hear. That Ode to Joy movement is what music is all about to me.. Enjoing music with other people.....
Sorry about the long ass comment. Im bored at work
For Hip Hop the South n Midwest blew up after Pac n Biggie died. Outkast, Bone Thugs n Harmony, Master P n No Limit. Juvenile, Lil Wayne the Hot Boys, Three Six Mafia, by 1999 Eminem, Nelly.
I love your reaction! Made me smile the entire way through.
"They really use instuments"! Greatest quote ever! Kind of sad the state of music right now.
I would LOVE to see you guys delve into rock. Your subs would go through the roof. SOO fun to watch ya’ll!! You don’t know who Motley Crue is?? 😂
I would loooooooooooooove love love for you guys to do more rock music. You'd be surprised at how anti-cop anti-establishment Rock is.
Oh, man. Dead Kennedys would blow their minds :D
Elvis!
You guys are my new favorites!
God. Bless, stay safe
liked it just from the intro lmao y'all are funny as hell
Hey saxophone was rock in the 70s and 80s - whatever you pick up, learning an instrument will definitely change your life and the way you think. They've shown it rewires the brain in a lot of positive ways, so start a band and just have fun with it - you guys have one huge journey ahead of you with rock, and I can't wait to witness it, this is the stuff that made me who I am, from The Doors to Nirvana and Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Led Zeppelin and a thousand more, like every bit of guitar from 1965 - 2000 (I was listening to my father's old record albums as a kid, and was 3 when MTV went on the air). This song was the Summer before 9th grade for me, and Grunge music like this shaped all of high school for us - yeah the dude on the cover IS 30, and a little freaked out by the whole thing lmao
Poor guy has the most famous naked baby picture in history
Nirvana has a litany of videos you should check out, but make sure you also check out their version of a David Bowie song, "The Man Who Sold the World", on MTV unplugged. Freaking amazing!!!
"U dont know who Kurt Cobain is?" "KurkoBangz like the gansta rapper?"😂🤣😅, and I agree exactly!
Really enjoyed this video guys ❤ Thank you!
Hey thanks for this! I used to see them in Seattle in the late ‘80’s.
Damn. Hearing them say The Beatles are too old for them and that Nirvana is "old school sh*t" makes me feel ancient and I'm only 33.
HOLY SHIT I NEARLY DIED WHEN U SAID ABOUT THE WHITE LIGHTER 🤣 I was born in England in 84 and I remember hearing that story in the 90s. Im so glad you had your man there to help you…please try and explore music pre 2010. Even saying that makes me feel depressed 🙃
Very glad he was there!!! You never heard of Nirvana? 😂😂😂
@@stefaniebrauer128 he said nothing past 2010….TWENTY TEN 😱😱😱 it genuinely shook me up
@@SkadoooschMovieRanking right?! 😄
@@stefaniebrauer128 yup
We listen to this in the van in the early 90’s on cassette tape. It cranked and fired us up for our college soccer games my guys! FIRE!
The Song "Something in the Way" used in The Batman is also Nirvana :) Nirvana is one of the G.O.A.Ts and is responsible for introducing me to other music genres besides r&b and hip hop. No Doubt was another favorite group of mine during this era. I LOVED growing up in the 90s!! It is my all time favorite for music, movies, television, and video games just in this old person's humble opinion lol.
Love seeing these young dudes appreciate real good music. Yes, they use instruments.
I moved to Seattle from Portland in spring of 1990 and I bought a lot of cds from stuff I heard on MTV and underground radio up there. One time the guy running the record store gave me a cassette tape of a local band and told me to listen to it a few times and let it grow in me. He said it’s a band called Nirvana. It was the album Bleach and it stayed in my cassette player for two months solid. I coulmd get enough if it
That's awesome!
"There's a whole time in music that we don't know." True! There is so much fabulous stuff out there, waiting for you to discover it.
I grew up in the 90's, Nirvana blew up when I was in elementary school and they got heavy play on Mtv back when they were still playing videos. Nirvana is legendary, and their drummer has a spinoff band, Foo Fighters y'all should react to. Both catalogs are deep!
Hey brothers, I have a request can you react to Bob Marley and the wailers. The new generation needs to hear good reggae music. Always I feel good listening to music with y'all 😊 thanks
In 1991 Nirvana finally gave Generation X rockers their own sound and defining soundtrack. The media labelled the Music Grunge. Its funny that I found you guys learning about rock while I was searching to learn about rap and hip hop. Enjoy your journey (Aerosmith and Run DMC Walk this Way maybe?) I'm off to learn about some guy named Tu Pac.... ps the Beatles are still relevant and amazing or why Michael Jackson bought their catalogue?
No feeling like that Nirvana feeling. Keep it up gents. Bravo
You earned a "subscribe"from me. I love y'all's energy. Good music surpasses spoken language, that ish is universal love, if it moves you and makes you feel some type of way it's FOR YOU! I'm a 41 year old white boy and when I'm in my Lexus on the highway and I put on some Detroit rap like Dame I got the strap in the seat right next to me hard eyeballin' everyone!
I was rocking this when I was a teenager. I never really listed to the lyrics but I always got pumped listening to the 🎵. You guys should check out living color , cult of personality.
If you guys want to get into Motley Crue, start with Kickstart My Heart... that song will get you hella pumped. The song was written after Nikki Sixx (Motley Crue founding member) died of a heroin overdose and they brought him back to life. Also, check out the Tommy Lee (drummer for Motley Crue) live in a spinning drum set!
Nikki is fascinating lol
