The energy nirvana had was amazing, no one could play drums like dave grohl, like kurt said, his timing was perfect. Kurt voice was always full of pain, but his voice was the most beautiful painly voice people have heard. His voice really touched inside of the young people when he came out. This is my fav song of all time, i played it enormously amount of times when i was at school. The energy of it was amazing. Shame i never got to see nirvana live, it must of been an amazing energy experience.
Lmao whenever I watch videos of Nirvana at the reading festival, I think “that’s why Kurt thought white people couldn’t dance cause these are the examples of white people dancing that he saw😂”
I actually cried when i watched this just now. For three guys to sound that huge and powerful, it still blows my mind all these years later. I was 17 when Kurt left the building. Forever grateful i got to be that age when these guys and so many other great bands we around and young still. Fucking awesome.
Yea I feel that - I as adult scream this to my dad n sister . Thanks Kurt . Makes me wanna hit on them drums n dance like tony did grunging out - instead I’m blasting it in my ears n chilling out saying - stay away !!!!!!!!!!
Si anche a me è sempre sembrato che volesse in qualche modo copiare l urlo che avrebbe potuto fare sua figlia piccola quando arrivava sua mamma..sembra propio un pianto da bambino...❤
DEFINITELY one of the most underrated Nirvana songs along with Aneurysm, Tourettes, Even in his youth, etc.....one word to describe this song is CATHARSIS
Can't remember if it was this or Reading 1991 where Kurt was wheeled in on a wheelchair with a drip attached as a dig at the British tabloids who kept running stories about him being a junkie and being near to death. Either way it became their most iconic show.
BarmanSVK Ahh, that explains his sorta hospital-esque gown in this video :P Nirvana's most infamous show, at the UK's most infamous festival in it's most infamous year. I would give my house to be at Reading in '92.
Regardless of Tony being their friend, you have to remember that this was before 9/11 and shit like that that caused all the increased security measures we have to deal with now
The anger and hate of this song is so beautiful for me. Kurt cobain really touched our generation, and how beautiful his voice with singing with anger. My fav all time song, and i am glad it came out at the right time for me, when i was young.
Ебать чувак, ты лучший, я уже думал никто не сделает тайм код. Я понимаю что ты не поймёшь что тут написано. Но дам подсказку, зайди в [Google translate: russian - english] и тогда ты всё поймёшь))) Да и просто хорошего тебя дня и привет тебе из России!
if you hear correcty the bass drive the song.The part of kurt is just 4 chords! So yeah Mr krist fucking novoselic but the three are awesome and so powerfull
the RAWNESS of this song: the vocals, kick-ass drumming, lead and bass guitar just blows me away. Dave Grohl truly is awesome in this song and so is the rest of the band.
justin808ish Well for the people who don't "get" Kurt, not saying "God is gay", made it less controversial, but I know he had his own meaning for it, like, Rape Me, and Kurt saying that people read into the lyric's too much, and asking them, what DO you think they mean?
listen to muddy banks of the wishkah for how kurt wanted those songs to actually sound. Record labels always made him simplify, neaten, clean everything up.
@@chriss8792 I feel he helped me to recognise pain and listening to his lyrics and raw delivery of them was his means of communicating them best so they resonated with me
Un grande del rock Nirvana , siempre escucho esta canción y me llena de emoción cuando suena la batería de Grohl sin duda un genio , muchas gracias por dejarnos estos himnos del Grunge (Rock) ,saludos desde Perú.
Still my all time fav song. The energy and anger in his voice in this was great. I loved it when i was a teenager, listening to this. Most people probably do not like this nirvana song, but its my fav all time song. Dave grohl must be tired after this set, how he played those drums. His timing was so good with kurts voice.
There’s nothing wrong with having extra back up singers and more guitars. It’s just more rock and roll. Slipknot and Foo Fighters would like to have a word with you.
Does anyone else just get the feeling Dave and Krist were there to summon Kurt? Lol. So often it seems that kurt is just doing something and Dave and Kris just start the song and Kurt joins with all he's got....
Holy Jackhammer! The way Dave hits those drums sounds like Rifleshots! I always said he was a big part of their success and this song is the proof! Power and Precision!
Straight legends, it's crazy the impact they made on metal in such a short time! And what's funny is Kurt admitted most of his lyrics were just random bits of poetry and "garbage", I remember his advice to up and coming bands were to never give up and that it doesn't matter what their songs say "but how it sounds", and I found that to be generally true-- you can say pretty much anything to some dope ass music and people will love it, it don't have to make any sense! Just read the lyrics to "teen spirit" 😂 👍. Love these guys forever!
Kurt didn't mean that literally on all his stuff. He said that to get people off his back reading into things . Kurts stuff was deep af, sometimes written simply and literally, sometimes not. Trust me, wasn't nonsense. He was mainly talking about SLTS and then was trolling some people Kurt spoke through his lyrics man. I can tell you the message and interpretation of almost any song of his. To say his songs didn't make sense is absolutely ridiculous and an insult to Kurt. Guy was a poet
@@el34glo59 Yeah like Pennyroyal tea was about abortion and the ‘'some say it was Greenland, some say Mexico” song was about climate change/drilling for oil. (forgot the name of the song) Also what does SLTS stand for?
@@crazysilly2914 SLTS stands for smells like teen spirit lol Also, the song and lyrics that you're talking about was a cover of the Meat Puppets, so it wasn't written by Kurt Cobain.
Nirvana's music helped me through a lot of depression and the effect Kurt's suicide had on his family and friends and the world is one of the reasons why I still life. I want to create music, paint, and give to the world instead of blowing my brains out. I fucking wish people would have helped Kurt more. I wish that he was still with us. He had so much more potential. Its a shame that his mental illness killed him. had he checked into a psych ward, he could still be rocking out.
You can hear his voice giving a little on this song but, when it was time for his yell at 2:48...holy crap. He gave it his all and hit me right in the soul just like everything else Kurt has done. He could easily have decided not to give it his full and save some of his voice but not Kurt. Always gave it his all, full passion.
One of my top three Nirvana songs, along with Lounge Act and Breed. The acoustic stuff they did is some of my favourite Nirvana stuff too, but I rate it on a different scale 😋lol

upside down smile at 3:14 he definitely said it
No it's heroin fact wish he did shit me too

Ask Tommy Aldridge

"Rather be dead than cool"

I love this song so much. I feel like you can hear the effects of his addiction in this recording and the one on the same live album of Lounge Act
he actually had a short lived clean period around this time, his voice was just fucked due to bronchitis

I love this song and Kurt will never be forgotten from the ppl that admire him the most.. changed the whole scene single handedly with 2 albums
3 albums
