      The big difference is the chord progression, but the overall style and rhythm are quite similar.

    I'm glad someone else caught onto the similarity, I think the key thing is the tempo and the drumbeat/drum fill. You'll notice the same drum beat in gorilla radio by Rage Against the Machine.

    Heard today that offspring sold their music for 35 mill. I’m 45. This was technically my generations music in the 90s. But I’m a drummer and I was in to 80s rock and progressive during this time. I hated 90s music because of the lowest common denominator breakdown of musicianship. Yes, I understand that there was no new ground to break coming out of the 80s because everything had been done and done. Van Halen was copied with distaste to excess by the late 1980s. The only surviving, still successful bands in the 90 coming from the 80s were the “original” established bands such as Van Halen, Aerosmith, Pink Floyd, and huge hits bands like Bon Jovi and Metallica. I think alternative was just a “back to basics” or lowest common denominator mentality. Starting over with grunge. Simple. No double bass progressive drums and no classical scale based technical guitar playing. So, when I heard about this band selling their music for 35 mill I thought.....that’s too much surely? I mean, who were they? They were not a Fleetwood Mac or Elton John? I look them up and hear all these familiar punk, silly songs that were familiar to me. It brought me back to the 90s. Lots of movies on the 90s had these songs as soundtracks. The beginning of freestyle motor cross and the X-Games had these types of songs. Sounded like background punk energetic music. I remember my dirt bike phase....in the 90s and all the riders dying there hair with spikes and ear rings. Rockstar energy drink. The Knack Knack on supercross jumps. Crusty Demons video tapes and dvds we would buy at the motorcycle shop had these type of songs as soundcheck. The Southern California surfer, motorcrosser music. I was never a country music redneck even though I’m from georgia and I have an accent. But, I could never get in to this music. Of course not. Cause I was a hard rock drummer who like Van Halen and Rush! But, this music did its job of putting a time stamp on the 90s. This was after grunge and considered rock I suppose? Pop rock or something? I start pulling up songs on UA-cam and I realize these guys had a lot of songs in this era. Familiar sounds. Commercial. I just never paid attention. So, I finally hear this one song where the beginning is....”nah nah nah nah nahhhhhhh” and it kicks in. I tell myself, “oh? This band remade he nirvana song!!!!” And that’s how I arrived at this UA-cam video that i am writing this crazy long comment on. I find out....everyone else thought the songs sounded the same or were the same!!!! Is this what is called “The a Mandela Affect?” The Bernstein Bears....but it was really the Berenstein Bears. Lol.

    From
    Boston - More Than A Feeling
    To
    NIRVANA - Smells Like Teen Spirit
    To
    Offspring - Self Esteem.
    That is Asbabun Nuzul about that songs

    • @ecoRfan
      @ecoRfan 5 років тому +1

      to Lady Gaga - Bad Romance, which is a bizarre way to copy the style.
      Oh and as to More Than a Feeling. The guitar riff is a bit of a rip of Cream - Badge.
      So what we see is Badge -> More Than a Feeling -> Smells Like Teen Spirit -> Self Esteem -> Bad Romance. A grand musical evolution.

    Just like Kurt Cobain, that's what I like about them, they don't pretend that they are better than the audience, we feel like friends instead of some big ego trip. Same with The Offspring, the 90's outlive music now, oftentimes.

      ??? For real? You actually prefer them?? I didn't know that was possible. No offense, I just don't get it. You are free to prefer whatever band you like but I just don't get it man, I feel like the offspring are kind of derivative, selfesteem is their attempt at recreating smells like teen spirit. Its like preferring Godsmack to Alice in Chains, it's kinda wack not gonna lie

  • @SkarabCZ

    The problem is that sequence of chords is totally different...

    • @curveball111
      @curveball111  5 років тому +2

      A mashup doesn't have to be between two songs with the same chord progressions. That would be very limiting. As far as mashups are concerned, if it sounds good, then why not? And to me and thousands of others, this does.

    • @dudeman5303
      @dudeman5303 Рік тому

      It's all about the key, if the melody can fit within a key or the modes of that key it'll work. The chord progression can be completely different as long as the notes from the melody can fit in with the various keys that each chord can be played in. C major is the 1 chord in C major, but it's the 4 chord in F major and the 5 chord in G major, so you can technically play notes from all 3 of those keys over the C major chord (and if it's a C power chord, as most of the chords in both songs are not adding a major 3rd or a minor 3rd, there's an even larger selection of keys that they work with). There is a lot you can do with a melody over riffs made up of mainly basic power chords or major and minor chords. I'm using this as an example but self esteem and smells like teen spirit are most likely in keys that are very related - I don't know what key either song is in but they're both definitely based on a major scale so even if they don't share a lot of chord tones and melody you can pitch shift the chord progression until it does work because almost every song in popular music is based off of 1 of the 12 major scales, so you can almost always just move the guitar up or down in pitch as a whole till it works.
