I really love this kind of "concert" where the artist just sit there hanging around talking to the audience and listening to them too. Feels really homey you know, that kind of "concert" always brings fan closer
Snap .. that instrument plays such a meaningful part … has done in afew of my favourite songs, ‘Eleanor rigby’ by the Beatles and ‘same song’ by vinnie Paz… heart string instrument.. you should check them out
@@straitkat The original comes for Nevermind and there is also a cello (imo it's sounds like a cello also might be mistaken since I'm not a pro in making a differnece between "orchestra" instruments) if that was your question
If you're someone who's never listened to much Nirvana and just found this because of The Batman, welcome, and congratulations, you've just stumbled upon one of the most prolific bands in rock history and the artistry of one of the most fascinating, talented and tragic figures in rock.
@@theateroftheabsurd2168 Thefuck are you talking about? Nirvana was MTV from brfore Nevermind came out and straight up until Kurt died. Are you too young, or too brainwashed to think that Nirvana wasn't a mainstream band?? They were HUGE.
Kurt's voice is like a haunting instrument that will never go away. It's been 30 years next month since he left here but Kurt will forever be 27. Rock in Peace Legend.
Время летит, охренеть! Но Курт успел столько музыки наделать, сколько 80-ти летним не снилось... Надо молодым показывать настоящую музыку, чтоб труд таких людей не пропал.
Can we stop to appreciate how much Lori Goldston's cello playing takes this song to just another level. She really was a big part of what made the Unplugged album so special. Her playing is so haunting.
Wow I honestly never realized how much she meant to this . I was a kid and now I realize it was the cello that made me feel those emotions. Great comment just flipped my world upside down.
John Smith somebody killed him. It is literally impossible to kill yourself with that gun. Also suicidal people aren't cowards, their life sucks, at least to them it does so calm down.
@@nathaniel04 depending on the circumstances suicide is pretty cowardly. To say Kurt committed suicide is a different topic. A topic I would rather not get into to.
@@Thomas-cr2pt Pretty much this. I think he expected attention, just not that much, and as someone who also has depression, you don't always want that attention. There's attention and expectations and sometimes they both such big time. I'm really sad he couldn't get the professional help he needed.
The greatest artist all have something in common: the dark side controlling them. Depression, abuse, addiction and so on...they just performed to survive
The cello with Kurt's voice is so damn beautiful. This has always been one of my favorite songs... glad that Batman movie gave a new generation an appreciation of Nirvana.
It's a brush technique. The drummer is there for tempo in the design of a "final product" . If you were to just "jam out" , it wouldn't create the right affect/intimacy with whoever is observing it; in an attempt to put it simply. Peace
@@mahikaboojo1378 I agree he left behind truly great and beautiful music, sadly, he was a troubled soul, and I'm not saying it from a religious perspective cuz I'm not. Truth is, he was a soul in despair, and he ended his life tragically, how you can expect his soul to rest in peace? And I can't imagine from a religious pov, he also s not resting in peace. We tell ourselves that in hopes of finding some sort of comfort but it's not always the reality. I'd wish he, as I do hope my idols such as Tupac is also resting in peace, but who knows, truth be told we'll never know the answer till we die.
The woman said to hurry up. Kurt asks indirectly what that's all about. What does the woman say next? The same? Because he laughs afterwards, or rather a sardonic laugh.😏 Thank you.
The girl on the cello and the back up guitarist, gifted to be apart of one the greatest performances ever. The people who saw that whole set live = blessed.
‘The back up guitarist’ is Pat Smear a part of Nirvana already playing in multiple live performances and already an established name in the underground scene before joining Nirvana. He’s also the reason they ended up covering the man who sold the world which has been monumental for the history of this live set.
I remember watching this live on MTV. I was 15 years old, and even back then, I knew I was watching something that felt Historical. A high that would never come this way again. A dazzling peak that touched your soul. Absolute perfection. And most of us knew it wasn't going to last.....
This song was his story..and it's the most emotional and a cry out song ever. Nobody knew he was going through depression and he was expressing it by his music and arts..He will be missed forever!
It was an awesome edition. I was debating on whether it was Nirvana when I was watching the movie, until I looked it up when I got home. I knew his voice sounded familiar, but the whole I was like "no that can't be Nirvana"
@@therealaustinpowers1967 i was literally wearing one of my nirvana shirts and right as the song played me and my friend were singing quietly , moments like that don’t happen quite often
@@TwisterTornado The lyrics have nothing to do with the way I feel. I deal with my"issues" with Xanax. Temporary solution to long term problem. Depression.
I bought this album when I was 13. Back in 94. My dad was impressed with the album but wasn’t a fan of Nirvana. This album alone defined a genre for generations. Absolutely incredible performance by the band.
WE were in our 20s when nirvana came on the scene and wow. Blew us away big time. My friend helped to managed the media for one of their trips to Australia and she has so many stories
I’m 37 now I used to listen to this on my brothers stereo when he wasn’t home I’m not sure what was so captivating about his music but into this day I still listen and feel a deep emotional connection to this very inspirational and troubled man
Riiight, what a time to be in the living during this era, I don’t think he knew how inspirational he was, dynamic personality. FYI he didn’t kill himself..let that sink in!!
Love this whole unplugged. My dad is a strict 70s classic rock music lover and pretty much doesn’t like much else but we watch this together all the time. Miss you Kurt. Me and my 63 yr old dad love to watch your amazing legacy.
I'm a 73 year old dad and a 60s rock & roller and I watch this with my 42 year old rocker daughter who also plays Nirvana songs on her Electric guitar.
My older brother 12 years was a straight Pink Floyd zeppelin Gnr Metallica guy and swore the early 90s was trash until this came on. All of a sudden he was straight nirvana lol
i really think this was kurts “baby” his masterpiece song, his most emotional...most saddest. About his life, his struggle, his loneliness, depression and i think he wanted this one to connect with everyone else who share it or those who can relate. Icon, rip Kurt. This is my favorite nirvana song.
I like the simplicity of this song as well and the feeling of somethings in the way and you dont know what it is. Something that prevents you to be happy.
Lyrics:. ;) Something in the way she moves attracts me like no other lover Something in the way she wood me I don't want to leave her now You know I believe and how Somewhere in her smile she knows that I don't need no other lover Something in her style that shows me I don't want to leave her now You know I believe and how You're asking me will my love grow I don't know, I don't know You stick around, now it may show I don't know, I don't know Something in the way she knows and all I have to do is think of her Something in the things she shows me I don't want to leave her now You know I believe and how
Battling stage 4 cancer at this moment. Dont know where I am at in this moment. Cryin my eyes out every day. Standing at the edge of life and can feel death is coming. At the age of 30. I dont want to be this Person anymore.
It is a damn shame the best artists/ songs come from such a dark place that we lose them. We love these artists and some of their best work comes from them pouring their souls and demons into their work but if only we could help them before it’s too late
Yeeaah,it feels like I am with my friends and some are singing,playing,some listening,and then we think of another song.They really gave that friendly feeling
Dude I’m not exaggerating when I say it hit me like a sucker punch I mean I felt it in my bones. This is one of my favorite songs of theirs but it’s been a few years since I heard it. When I realized what it was a few seconds into the trailer I got goosebumps.
It truly works for how gritty of a Batman movie they are making. I've been so impressed and surprised by what dc did with joker, so I can't wait for this new take on a Batman movie!
Nothing like the 90s acoustic gigs, my aunt used to play in coffee shops and watching these feels like my childhood. Love Kurt, love Krist, love Dave. ❤
What is truly amazing about this song is the way it coveys such a huge emotional impression and observation of homlessness and bleakness, cold and rain, but also love and morals and values with such a minimal amount of information. Simple lyrics boiled right down to the absolute nub, 2 chords, simple cello and beat and repeated chorus. But it just knocks you over. When it happened in the Batman I had shivers, it was a great moment to drop such a haunting song. Film and music will always be a very powerful force, but this song, this version, stripped back, live, unplugged and laid bare is one of the worlds true musical gems. Life could be better but something is always in the way.
Despite me not being a giant Nirvana fan, this is probably one of the greatest live shows ever performed. Talk about every single song being an absolute banger with no slip up.
What you're watching is edited, it's not that no one slips up/ butchers multiple songs. They have an opportunity to get it right/perfect for the recording. This wasn't streaming live or anything back then.
@@megyskermike if you watch the MTV documentary they tell you that the only way Kurt would play is they didn't edit it . They were suppose to be the only band not to be edited
hearing this, then half-way going to sleep at the end of the album, thinking everything is done, then being slapped back to reality by endless nameless is a mystical experience.
I think every tune I could play on guitar was nirvana, I'm not a guitar player but I always tried when I was a kid, my dad's guitar was always in the house, but it means alot that the only songs I could play were nirvana. The main one was come as you are, I spent so much time getting that right, then there was in bloom (with power chords), and also lets not forget the famous smells like teen spirit.
My reaction when I was watching the trailer and "something in the way" started playing was: God is Nirvana: ') if they put this tremendous jewel it gives me hope that the movie is not bad, otherwise they would offend Kurt's memory
Made me so happy to share this song with my children while watching the new Batman. Since I was a teen when this first came out, I've always loved it.. It always spoke to me. That whole 90's dark grunge music spoke to me as a teen and even through dark times through each decade of my life. My kids are too young to understand the lyrics and their meanings but appreciated the vibe and "sang" to this while it played.
My Dad listened to this song so much when I was growing up, he passed away but I get a lot of memories and feel like we have a special moment when I hear some of the songs he played. They will remember it for a long time!
@49bars don't take anything to seriously these days, and don't think too hard about things that will be important later on in life there is a time and a place for everything but make the more mature decisions if you're capable of it, An if you take advantage of the fact you can already see and accept that the world's a lot darker of a place than what it's painted out to be maybe it won't hit you all at once and leave you with all these questions if you just prepare yourself for the truth. And I don't really know how to help you specifically cause I don't know what you're going through exactly but everyone has problems if someone said they don't there lying or just too naive or young to see it. Just take things one step at a time you'll be fine bro 👍
Look at us now in our 40's wish time didn't go that fast! I miss the 90's sad as this sounds i never enjoyed life beyond the mid 90's> Still stuck in the past life was beautiful. I would give anything in the world to relive my childhood from 80's 90's onwards.
It gives chills goosebumps and tears I was homeless for awhile lived under bridge parking garages abandon buildings it is hard to listen to such a beautiful eary song
This song explained everything I felt when I was 17. My depression killed me. And when I heard this the first time, I understood everything. The words might be so minimal, but mean so much
Nirvana Unplugged one of the best albums ever made in my opinion the music takes me back to being a teenager partying and no worries. Thanks kurt RIP bro
I still get choked up bout Kurt . When I was a teenager Nirvana spoke to my spirit n saved me many times. The lyrics. This is definitely one of my favorite songs bands lyricist n albums of all time. Thank you Nirvana!! My fuckin heart
I love this album..it hit home when I was a nurse..never drank or did drugs..just raising my two kids alone..all his songs on this album fit my feelings and thoughta at the time..that was 30 years ago and I still listen to him...oh I'm 57yo now..and still love him and this album
here because frances bean said this was her favourite mtv unplugged performance 🥲: "I like to imagine that if we had been able to grow up together, he would've been gentle with me in the same way he was gentle singing that song"
Kurt was a chosen one he was gifted theirs no one like him truly special person one thing i noticed about chosen ones is how gifted and talented and different they are
I am 43 years old. my son is 18. He all the sudden has this fascination with Nirvana and especially Kurt Cobain. I get it dude. I only really listen to Nirvana maybe 2 years of my life before Kurt died. So I guess you're opinion is as good as mine
True Genius! He was a master of subtilty and he seemed to have very little ego! the 90's was the freest decade. No phones taking video's, or people posting on social media. Everyone is fully engaged and will always remember this gig. I still remember every word of every song. It seems he had a beautiful soul and what he achieved by the age of 27. Truly amazing! I am sure he has reincarnated somewhere on mother earth
The amount of times I've cried to this song I don't even want to know. Kurt's voice is the only thing that calms down my anxiety, even if it's just for a moment. Whenever I feel down I put this song on and I immediately feel less alone. Kurt, wherever you are now: you are deeply missed.
@@coyotecodey1160 literally just shared this video and mad a similar comment on facebook lol but in all seriousness that is a true statement doesn't matter if you don't play or sing well passion shines through no matter what you do
@@professorjester5378 that's always been one of my favorite parts about kurt was he had simplistic solos and songs and they sounded as good as a complexed song that had 500 notes and an insane solo music is from the heart and the brain when connected they are powerful
Damn I was 10 years old in 93. My bro and I loved Nirvana so much. Reminds me of the room we shared, the bunk beds, Nintendo, skateboarding AND JUKEBOX NETWORK!
You totally just described my life. My neighbor had a half pipe in his back yard, I spent all my time at his house. We would listen to Nirvana, while waxing our skateboards. It was so chill. I ended up going into the Air Force and he moved off. All of my friends would bust on me bc even into my 30's, I HAD to have my Etnies & DC's, to match my scubs. When my daughter was little, she wore them too. Only 5 year old I ever saw wearing a pair of DCs. 🤣 Nothing will ever beat an old school Nintendo, and MTV...when they actually played music.
What I was originally going to say was "I was -1", but since this is a batman video... “Ah you think darkness is your ally? You merely adopted the dark. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man"
The millions of people you're talking about paid his salary so he could be a millionaire and support his family that he cowardly left. He had the resources to get help he just chose crack and heroine instead. he left nothing but a subculture that's dying and hurt family.
@@networkninja2971 that's the point, they gave him money and cheered their music without caring the message he was trying to give. He ended up becoming something that he hated
@@networkninja2971 you got a point tho. Unlike others defending him, i get he was a great person and all but still. No one realised his true intentions before that till it was too late. Suddenly everyone is a nirvana fan after that, just like another statistic.
He was hurting inside you can tell by his music no one knew what was going to happen my cousin did the same thing nobody saw it coming you got certain vibe she was hurting inside just like Kurt
This song + Bruce driving on his motorcycle in the night = absolute chills
Absolutely. Loved the camera behind the helmet too and the orange tint. Such a perfect song for that scene.
I used to play this song really late at night when driving home from work, idk what it is about this song but it's great
Man.
BEST SCENE EVER
Plus the first look of his cave and he entering that.
I was not expecting this on The Batman. It was amazing.
Yeah, me too man
Perfect usage in the scenes they used it for. SOOO good.
♥️
It was in the trailer, so I did expect it, but yeah, it was perfect for the film.
Being a hard Kurt Cobain fan it was really amazing hearing this song twice in the batman. I got chills lol
i loved how the crowd is just quiet and respectful thru the show
Exactly. Pre-cell phones. Before the mysteries of the world were reveled via a screen in your hand. Smart phones = dumb people.

You DEFINITELY have to appreciate Dave’s style of “quiet drumming” during this whole unplugged set.
He was definitely struggling to hold back haha
Apparently Kurt kept telling him to be quieter during rehearsal
Omg. Somebody's feeling important! Lmfao
He's using a special type of drumsticks designed to be much quieter.

I was 13 in 94...how the time has flown
I bought this album when I was 13 back in 95. It was the first album that I bought, and it was the begining for me listening rock music.
I’m 37 now I used to listen to this on my brothers stereo when he wasn’t home I’m not sure what was so captivating about his music but into this day I still listen and feel a deep emotional connection to this very inspirational and troubled man
I think it's his voice pulling you to listen to him there are musicians who are that good and he was
Listen to seethers cover. Amazing.
Riiight, what a time to be in the living during this era, I don’t think he knew how inspirational he was, dynamic personality. FYI he didn’t kill himself..let that sink in!!
I appreciate the support for something I have only shared here. 180 likes I insane to me
I remember seeing them premiere for the first time on MTV… I was instantly a fan. They haven’t stopped speaking to my soul.
Man i got chills when i heard it in the batman. That shit was crazy.

I thought was Scott weiland

Me too

U gotta hear this :) !!!
Love this whole unplugged. My dad is a strict 70s classic rock music lover and pretty much doesn’t like much else but we watch this together all the time. Miss you Kurt. Me and my 63 yr old dad love to watch your amazing legacy.
Hunter Vonnegut STFU no one asked
I'm a 73 year old dad and a 60s rock & roller and I watch this with my 42 year old rocker daughter who also plays Nirvana songs on her Electric guitar.
@Hunter Vonnegut no
Love that's what music is for. 😀💜🖤💜✔️
My older brother 12 years was a straight Pink Floyd zeppelin Gnr Metallica guy and swore the early 90s was trash until this came on. All of a sudden he was straight nirvana lol
i really think this was kurts “baby” his masterpiece song, his most emotional...most saddest. About his life, his struggle, his loneliness, depression and i think he wanted this one to connect with everyone else who share it or those who can relate. Icon, rip Kurt. This is my favorite nirvana song.
Apparently his favourite was Drain You
I like the simplicity of this song as well and the feeling of somethings in the way and you dont know what it is. Something that prevents you to be happy.
@Greg Hubbard and you know this is a lie how? Did he tell you?
@Greg Hubbard It's not meant to be taken literally.
@@randomguy263 exactly
Still one of the most mysterious and brilliant songs of all time.
He was truly 1 of 1. We’ll never see someone like this ever again. RIP
I will... ok i not will

Absolutely 😢

Lyrics:. ;)
Something in the way
she moves
attracts me like no other lover
Something in the way
she wood me
I don't want to leave her now
You know I believe and how
Somewhere in her smile
she knows
that I don't need no other lover
Something in her style
that shows me
I don't want to leave her now
You know I believe and how
You're asking me will my love grow
I don't know, I don't know
You stick around, now it may show
I don't know, I don't know
Something in the way
she knows
and all I have to do is think of her
Something in the things
she shows me
I don't want to leave her now
You know I believe and how
Cringe bruh
@@nickdiaz1999 I'm Vengeance
This nirvana mtv unplugged show looks and sounds so magical it’s unexplainable
Things like this happen before people die sometimes. This happened in november and he died in april 1994
Battling stage 4 cancer at this moment. Dont know where I am at in this moment. Cryin my eyes out every day. Standing at the edge of life and can feel death is coming. At the age of 30. I dont want to be this Person anymore.
It is a damn shame the best artists/ songs come from such a dark place that we lose them. We love these artists and some of their best work comes from them pouring their souls and demons into their work but if only we could help them before it’s too late
I feel the same with Kurt and Chris Cornell.
Chester too
Damn man, this is so deep
Check out beautiful curse from Benjamin tod
😔😢
I love how casual it is. I love the gaps and the chats between songs and the respectful audience applause. Nirvana are amazing.
Yeeaah,it feels like I am with my friends and some are singing,playing,some listening,and then we think of another song.They really gave that friendly feeling
Never thought this song would play in a trailer, even more a BATMAN trailer. Nice ear Matt Reeves.
Diego Armando Quino Puma it’s a perfect song for that trailer
Para mi es perfecto para esta etapa de Batman, solo, drepimido con rabia, como dije es perfecta.
Dude I’m not exaggerating when I say it hit me like a sucker punch I mean I felt it in my bones. This is one of my favorite songs of theirs but it’s been a few years since I heard it. When I realized what it was a few seconds into the trailer I got goosebumps.
At last Justice
It truly works for how gritty of a Batman movie they are making. I've been so impressed and surprised by what dc did with joker, so I can't wait for this new take on a Batman movie!
Nothing like the 90s acoustic gigs, my aunt used to play in coffee shops and watching these feels like my childhood. Love Kurt, love Krist, love Dave. ❤
The most legendary set ever played god damn that cello hits
What is truly amazing about this song is the way it coveys such a huge emotional impression and observation of homlessness and bleakness, cold and rain, but also love and morals and values with such a minimal amount of information. Simple lyrics boiled right down to the absolute nub, 2 chords, simple cello and beat and repeated chorus. But it just knocks you over. When it happened in the Batman I had shivers, it was a great moment to drop such a haunting song. Film and music will always be a very powerful force, but this song, this version, stripped back, live, unplugged and laid bare is one of the worlds true musical gems. Life could be better but something is always in the way.

Despite me not being a giant Nirvana fan, this is probably one of the greatest live shows ever performed. Talk about every single song being an absolute banger with no slip up.
During the Guitar Break during The Man Who Sold The World Kurt did mess up
What you're watching is edited, it's not that no one slips up/ butchers multiple songs. They have an opportunity to get it right/perfect for the recording. This wasn't streaming live or anything back then.
Actually it did air live on mtv when it came out. This is single handedly the greatest concert ever preformed of all time
@@megyskermike if you watch the MTV documentary they tell you that the only way Kurt would play is they didn't edit it . They were suppose to be the only band not to be edited
@@megyskermike imagine being so wrong but acting like a know it all.. congrats!
hearing this, then half-way going to sleep at the end of the album, thinking everything is done, then being slapped back to reality by endless nameless is a mystical experience.
the band that made me pick up my guitar, and i couldn’t be any happier.
Or at least you think you’re happy
4 me the same, the first song i learn to play in my first acoustic guitar was from nirvana and blow my mind when i hear the sound what kurt create.
I think every tune I could play on guitar was nirvana, I'm not a guitar player but I always tried when I was a kid, my dad's guitar was always in the house, but it means alot that the only songs I could play were nirvana. The main one was come as you are, I spent so much time getting that right, then there was in bloom (with power chords), and also lets not forget the famous smells like teen spirit.
same
Sol Bimbam haha nice one
Legends die, but their music lives and carries on. Touches many few and far. Rest In Peace dear Kurt.
Legends never die.
“I’m Vengeance” The Batman is gonna be amazing “RIP Kurt”
Just came hear bc of the teaser lol
Yo también. Vengo por eso
j wasto damn :/
Yes sir that trailer looks amazing
My reaction when I was watching the trailer and "something in the way" started playing was: God is Nirvana: ') if they put this tremendous jewel it gives me hope that the movie is not bad, otherwise they would offend Kurt's memory
You all are spreading so much love. It’s truly heartwarming. Thank you!
"The hell are you supposed to be?"
[insane beatdown ensues]
"... I'm Vengeance."
AMAZING!
You know it!
after the trailer batman, also look for a track?
Wow thats how a Batman beat down should look! 🤕
hi vengeance, im dad.
The humming is the most powerful hum i ever damn heard
When I listen to this song, I feel like I'm in the 90s, through a dark alley ... at the end there is a soothing light .Thanks Kurt and friend..
ua-cam.com/video/UyTLzUBDzYY/v-deo.html
U gotta hear this :) !!! :) !!! :)
That’s kinda weird
And theres a person in the dark alley.
@@Virdex It's a young boy, standing above a man and a woman.
@@resortisland8977 the young boy is crying.
Made me so happy to share this song with my children while watching the new Batman. Since I was a teen when this first came out, I've always loved it.. It always spoke to me. That whole 90's dark grunge music spoke to me as a teen and even through dark times through each decade of my life. My kids are too young to understand the lyrics and their meanings but appreciated the vibe and "sang" to this while it played.
Same, I was 19 at the time. Just showed my kids this video after watching the Batman movie..."see kids, mom is cool".
My Dad listened to this song so much when I was growing up, he passed away but I get a lot of memories and feel like we have a special moment when I hear some of the songs he played. They will remember it for a long time!
@49bars don't take anything to seriously these days, and don't think too hard about things that will be important later on in life there is a time and a place for everything but make the more mature decisions if you're capable of it, An if you take advantage of the fact you can already see and accept that the world's a lot darker of a place than what it's painted out to be maybe it won't hit you all at once and leave you with all these questions if you just prepare yourself for the truth. And I don't really know how to help you specifically cause I don't know what you're going through exactly but everyone has problems if someone said they don't there lying or just too naive or young to see it. Just take things one step at a time you'll be fine bro 👍
Look at us now in our 40's wish time didn't go that fast! I miss the 90's sad as this sounds i never enjoyed life beyond the mid 90's> Still stuck in the past life was beautiful. I would give anything in the world to relive my childhood from 80's 90's onwards.
Oh yea they did play this in new Batman nice
chills everytime
Singing it with tears in my eyes.
It gives chills goosebumps and tears I was homeless for awhile lived under bridge parking garages abandon buildings it is hard to listen to such a beautiful eary song
This song explained everything I felt when I was 17. My depression killed me. And when I heard this the first time, I understood everything. The words might be so minimal, but mean so much
Sounds like you understood it all along. Just didnt realize it.
that’s the power of music. hope you’re doing alright
If it killed you, you’d be dead, drama queen.
It’s helping me now at 39. My ex and I use to listen to it. It makes me miss her and makes me feel…words can’t explain
Sounds like he's singing about the time he was homeless to me. If you understand that then you identify.
The harmony between the music and video is just flawless!
I was a senior in high school when this unplugged album was performed. There's a whole lotta nostalgia going on here for me.
This is my favorite live show of all time.
Me to
Agreed I’ve watched it so many times over this last month I’ve become nirvana obsessed
me too
Alice In Chains then nirvana unplugged iMO
@@blizzard_of_Za Watching Nutshell, gives like the ultimate goosebumps.
Imagine being there, then 30 years later this is STILL the greatest unplugged ever. So lucky to be there in person.
nice bro
Alice in Chains was definitely the best coming from a Nirvana fan since the 90s.
What about Alice in Chains?
Alice in chains was good too but i think because nirvana was the bigger band most popular that people just put it number 1 but they were both great
I'm too young to have been there and appreciate one of the greatest concerts of all time, sadly.
Nirvana Unplugged one of the best albums ever made in my opinion the music takes me back to being a teenager partying and no worries. Thanks kurt RIP bro
I still get choked up bout Kurt . When I was a teenager Nirvana spoke to my spirit n saved me many times. The lyrics. This is definitely one of my favorite songs bands lyricist n albums of all time. Thank you Nirvana!! My fuckin heart
Masterpiece. One of the best songs off Unplugged. Kurt was one of the coolest f-ing dudes in history
I love this album..it hit home when I was a nurse..never drank or did drugs..just raising my two kids alone..all his songs on this album fit my feelings and thoughta at the time..that was 30 years ago and I still listen to him...oh I'm 57yo now..and still love him and this album
💕 hope all is he well
Hey Donna you're amazing!!!
Wow you're same age with Kurt?
@@janecarolbaldivia1430 yeeea, I did Last mouth.
gr8 set. Thx @nirvana
5:42 is the ONLY time I have ever heard someone say ‘gee-tar’ that wasn’t from my family. Him saying that just brought back a lot of memories.
here because frances bean said this was her favourite mtv unplugged performance 🥲: "I like to imagine that if we had been able to grow up together, he would've been gentle with me in the same way he was gentle singing that song"
❤ same ❤
That’s her father of course it would be her fav. Can’t imagine
@@tomzadvydas1758
I think they mean this specific song
wow thanks for this comment, it's bigger than it may seem
Every time I watch this I envy the people in the audience. Imagine being there to witness it......
True. That would have been fucking amazing. I literally can't imagine.
I'm sure over 70% of the people there were all MTV people and special people allowed 2 be there. Then like 100 tickets for local fans
Watched it live in 93 on MTV. Wish could have been there was 18
I had bought tickets to Lollapalooza 1994 just to see Nirvana. The concert was in June and he passed in April. I was devastated
Wow, I can only imagine 😔
Kurt was a chosen one he was gifted theirs no one like him truly special person one thing i noticed about chosen ones is how gifted and talented and different they are
I am 43 years old. my son is 18. He all the sudden has this fascination with Nirvana and especially Kurt Cobain. I get it dude. I only really listen to Nirvana maybe 2 years of my life before Kurt died. So I guess you're opinion is as good as mine
❤❤❤
all i want is a son that would love Nirvana
True Genius! He was a master of subtilty and he seemed to have very little ego! the 90's was the freest decade. No phones taking video's, or people posting on social media. Everyone is fully engaged and will always remember this gig. I still remember every word of every song. It seems he had a beautiful soul and what he achieved by the age of 27. Truly amazing! I am sure he has reincarnated somewhere on mother earth
He’s gay
@@patywithzarri0616 first of all he isn't, second of all what does that have to do with anything
@@patywithzarri0616He had a wife who he had a kid with lol
I love Kurt. His voice is one and only.
You are my one and only
definitely i agree

This song carries an inexplicable melancholy.
The amount of times I've cried to this song I don't even want to know. Kurt's voice is the only thing that calms down my anxiety, even if it's just for a moment. Whenever I feel down I put this song on and I immediately feel less alone. Kurt, wherever you are now: you are deeply missed.
I really feel you
Me too, and now I feel like crying 🤠✌🏽
Try Mad Season - Wake up, or Alice ib Chains - Dawn in a hole
Or Кино - Спокойная ночь
Don't eat the fish!
S.o.a D.
I don't think I'll ever get tired of his music I can listen to it over and over again... such a beautiful soul miss you kurt
Same here
I started listening at 14 & I'm 44 now I never tired of it either ❤
Two chords. This entire song is two chords played over and over in the same order.
The genius of Kurt Cobain.
Music is from the heart. Good music is. You’re not counting chords when it’s from the heart.
@@coyotecodey1160 literally just shared this video and mad a similar comment on facebook lol but in all seriousness that is a true statement doesn't matter if you don't play or sing well passion shines through no matter what you do
Kurt Cobain as an artist was highly gifted yet also at times simplistic
@@professorjester5378 that's always been one of my favorite parts about kurt was he had simplistic solos and songs and they sounded as good as a complexed song that had 500 notes and an insane solo music is from the heart and the brain when connected they are powerful
Check out Around the World by Daf Punk
When i was a young 18 i just thought things like this emerged naturally every year ...but it never happened again
Damn I was 10 years old in 93. My bro and I loved Nirvana so much. Reminds me of the room we shared, the bunk beds, Nintendo, skateboarding AND JUKEBOX NETWORK!
Wow, good old days right! I'm from a different generation but man this sounds so cool 🔥🔥🔥
You totally just described my life. My neighbor had a half pipe in his back yard, I spent all my time at his house. We would listen to Nirvana, while waxing our skateboards. It was so chill. I ended up going into the Air Force and he moved off. All of my friends would bust on me bc even into my 30's, I HAD to have my Etnies & DC's, to match my scubs. When my daughter was little, she wore them too. Only 5 year old I ever saw wearing a pair of DCs. 🤣 Nothing will ever beat an old school Nintendo, and MTV...when they actually played music.
I was about 15 and still innocent to recognize his jaw dancing :D
What I was originally going to say was "I was -1", but since this is a batman video...
“Ah you think darkness is your ally? You merely adopted the dark. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man"
Good days man
One man can save millions, But millions couldn't save one. R.I.P Kurt Cobain
So true...
The millions of people you're talking about paid his salary so he could be a millionaire and support his family that he cowardly left. He had the resources to get help he just chose crack and heroine instead. he left nothing but a subculture that's dying and hurt family.
@@networkninja2971 wow bro
@@networkninja2971 that's the point, they gave him money and cheered their music without caring the message he was trying to give. He ended up becoming something that he hated
@@networkninja2971 you got a point tho. Unlike others defending him, i get he was a great person and all but still. No one realised his true intentions before that till it was too late. Suddenly everyone is a nirvana fan after that, just like another statistic.
Wow, can't believe this was 30 years ago, I remember seeing it live on MTV when I was 10 years old. The time sure does fly by...
Even though I wasn’t alive in the 1990s, I remember the first time I listened to them and I was obsessed with them. Rip Kurt, We miss you ❤
So dark, so deep, almost haunting. Yet so beautiful at the same time. So unappreciated
It's amazing to see Kurt and how he created his songs, based on his feelings etc.
i love how chill this performance was and what a down to earth and funny kind of guy kurt was
@Hunter Vonnegut any songs you recommend?
3:55 - A Kurt Cobain smile after such a dark song is absolutely heart-warming.
his smile is beautiful
His vocals sound so tortured, its beautiful.
And don't forget about Layne Staley from Alice In Chains.
4:16
Nutshell unplugged
I agree his voice speaks to me real and raw nothing compares to him
He was hurting inside you can tell by his music no one knew what was going to happen my cousin did the same thing nobody saw it coming you got certain vibe she was hurting inside just like Kurt
Everything about this song is amazing from the way it’s written to how it was crafted and produced
@Danna Lilian pure artistry
I graduated May 1994 and I listened to them daily before basic training and picked them back up after and now again at almost 50
That crowd witnessed musical history
Which they will never forget
I believe so my friend
Beautiful souls
Best unplugged ever
indeed
Death is not the greatest loss in life. the greatest loss is what dies inside while still alive.
Word
I disagree
Enjoy this nice song...nothing even close to this king kc but still nice

Nah, I would say death is worse
