Yo Preston, just a quick history behind this track. This song is so much more than just a "classic." Nirvana, especially with this track, is one of the defining moments in the history of music, taking the entire scene from one era into the next in the early 1990s. It CANNOT be overstated just how huge this song was when it was released, and how different and raw and powerful it was to the average mainstream listener. Seriously, it was massive, and it was everywhere, and everyone decided it was time to move on from the old age of music and in a newer, grungier direction. It was THE anthem for an entire generation, and pretty much simultaneously killed and then recreated what rock and roll would sound like for a long time to come.
I literally remember the red light intersection I was sitting at in my car when I first heard this song and turning it up. And I watched Metallica and Slayer when they were opening bands in the 80's
This is one of the few songs where I vividly remember the first time I heard it. It was late at night, autumn 1991, and I was driving across the San Mateo Bridge back home to Oakland, listening to KFJC (low wattage college radio station out of Los Alto) when this came on. I moved to the right lane, slowed down as much as I could without obstructing traffic, and drove on praying "Please don't let me go out of range before the DJ says who this is. PLEASE don't let me go out of range before the DJ says who this is."
Hello hello hello... how low? This song represented how much we hated the game of society of the time. Fight Club said it best: "We’re the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War’s a spiritual war… our Great Depression is our lives. We’ve all been raised on television to believe that one day we’d all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won’t. And we’re slowly learning that fact. And we’re very, very pissed off."
@@natewilliams1062 sounds like its hard to grasp... listen to entertainment- rise against or re-eduaction through labor). the second song i mentioned is what did it for me... hence why im trying to make my visions a reality rather then work for a cooperate company
Lounge Act is their most underrated song for sure it’s so good but overlooked by the other tracks on Nevermind, it’s my fav off the album I’m not lying lol
" Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit " , there just couldn't be a more 1990's anthem , huh ?? Great song . For me it brings up a lot of jr high memories and of my late uncle who loved this song .
First time I heard Nirvana was before the hype. I was living in Nevada. My car was an '85 Chevette with an AM radio. I was driving out in the hills and found an AM radio station that was broadcasting a simulcast of an FM station. I got to hear Territorial Pissings by Nirvana while sitting up on that mesa. It helped end much of the loneliness and depression I was feeling that day.
I really like BLEACH. Its a little raw and unpolished especially compared to Nevermind but its harder and primal. Has some great riffs. Floyd the Barber or About a Girl or Love Buzz... fucking everything on Bleach is brilliant.
No so many artists much more talented and had much more substance. Everything kurt sings about is me me me. Tupac was about his community, race, and politics actually substance.
His songs were mainly about angst and "selfish" approach to lyricism, not to mention that the genre he shines in is grunge which is the obesse and smelly child of Rock music. Great? Yes. Tupac of Rock? No.
You mean Tupac is the Jim Morrison of hip hop. Rock music has more musical icons and respectable artists than hip hop. Just naming a few musicians such as Bob Dylan, David Bowie, Hendrix, Cobain, Thom Yorke, and Lennon really establishes my point. Their legacy is written in stone.
If you decide to react to Nirvana again in the future, PLEASE consider... Unplugged- Where did you sleep last night!!!! You won’t be disappointed Boss !! Appreciate Ya !
He has to know the back story first, before watching Unplugged: Where did you sleep last night to really understand the signifigance of the performance.
Hmmm... Neck and neck with Clapton and Alice in Chains. Also if you wanna go back you should react to where did you sleep last night by Leadbelly. Kurt did, they're both amazing
I'm honestly astonished you had never heard this before. Love your content homey. Subbed for sure. It is always exciting to relive that feeling of finding a great new song, and I like your openness.
i've been bingewatching your videos. reliving many songs i love and didn't hear for long. you are becoming quite knowledgable in stuff i like, i mean, in good stuff :D keep it up!
I remember at 13 being blown away with this song... it was all about Ace of Base, La Bouche and Haddaway "What is love" .. then this band came in to the scene and just pulled.the.plug and it was over! It's as if people woke up - music got raw!! ... then came Moist and all kinds of other soul shaking music exposing all kinds of deep emotions ... this music is like stage 1 emotional healing ... the bandaid gets ripped the hell off and now we just feel. Thank you Nirvana for the wake up sound ❤
Over 25 years old and the song still sells up in me a surge of all kinds of emotions ...just want explode with reaction. Let me try to convey how important this song was; it was conveyed in this sentence and pretty much sums up the impact: "If you were in a band on Friday and Saturday Nirvana's Album "Nevermind" came out on Monday you were out of job ". It ripped up the commercial world and tried to get rid of formulated rock n roll. For about 4 years it did just that until Cobain( the lead singer) chose to leave this world. It came in with them and stopped with them. I feel so lucky to have experienced this...it was truly the last great movement in the rock n roll ...I could write for pages and hours on this. So glad you dug this!!
The song that saved music!! This came at a point when I kept MTV on as background noise while I cleaned the house. The first time I heard this, I turned off my vacuum and just sat and stared at the TV. I actually waited for it to come on again.
Heart Shaped Box. Where Did You Sleep Last Night. Lithium. All by Nirvana. I LOVED this reaction because it is a perfect reminder of my reaction to this band. Enjoy the rest of your Nirvana journey - it's going to be a fun one! ❤❤❤
Where did you sleep last night was my favorite song from the unplugged session. It was also the last song kurt ever sung in public. If you havent heard it i highly recommend it.
Butch Vig, who produced the album, says Kurt's voice was just destroyed by the end. Butch described it as 'sounds like his vocal cords are coming out of his throat' - Kurt put 100% into it.
React to Nirvana - Where Did You Sleep Last Night (MTV Unplugged) It's a Leadbelly cover that showcases Cobains vocal character. Or, for something heavy, "Scentless Apprentice" or "Aneurysm" are really good.
Their breakout hit. It ushered in the Seattle sound (aka grunge) era of the early 90's. When the song broke nationally (in late 1991), the culture changed to reflect the new era because it affected everything from fashion to a demographics shift. Seattle became cool again and lots of young people moved to the Pacific NW to start their lives.
I appreciate seeing someone also appreciating such a range of music. Classic rock, metal, nu-metal, rap, hip-hop, grunge. I don’t get how people and pigeon-hole themselves into claiming to be fans of a single genre. I really enjoy your reactions because your enjoyment and passion for talent in music really comes through. Keep doing what you’re doing Pres. You’re my first subscription after years of UA-cam viewing because your channel is worth it!
More Nirvana. That’s not their best. Nirvana is amazing. Once you listen to their songs more than once you will start really vibe-ing with them. Live concerts is when I really started to get into their music and ofcourse learning about Kurt thru interviews and the two films(montage of heck and soaked in bleach) huge nirvana fan. Weird lyrics, amazing sound. You just need to give it more than two songs before you cross them out. Nirvana is the 90s and still one of the biggest names in rock. songs you should do next Aneurysm Breed In bloom Heart shaped box Rape me Lithium Territorial pissings You know you’re right (with video it’s nuts) Where did you sleep last night unplugged About a girl Plenty more but this is a start. So many great songs but I feel like you need a taste of their style.
This cannot be overstated how much this song meant to music, society, culture and how the moment it was shown on MTV, the music scene as we knew it, changed forever. Nirvana was the american version of the Beatles. Not in style by any means, but what they did to the culture/society at large when they came to prominence. Then everyone else followed suit. (Pearl Jam, AIC, STP, Soundgarden, Screaming Trees, The Pumpkins, Bush, Temple of The Dog, Mudhoney, Hole, Garbage, The Cranberries, etc......) It was an incredible time for music..
I really love how over the course of your videos, your body language begins to change and you are starting to move more and more like a "metalhead", that same swaying bob that you see in the crowds, it just shows how universal the music is, and how it literally moves us all.
I have discovered a lot of black people actually enjoy Nirvana. I was washing dishes one night. My dude, Sean, was mopping the floor and I had this song playing out loud. Sean was like: "Ay John is that Nirvana?" I was like: "Yeah, man." He said: "Yo. They my boys right there." We jammed the rest of the shift, it was awesome. Sean's a cool guy.
This song has so much power in it without that being the intention. That’s what makes this song great. I’ll spare a paragraph of fandom, but this song changed my life when I heard it back in the day. Keep up with the videos. Your channel is dope
I named my son, after Layne Staley (alice in chains..), but he was ALMOST kurt 🖤. This band changed my whole Life.. i was an aspiring musician, on my own by 14 & a raging addict that functioned well.. this is the epitome of my generation. We were the children of divorce becoming commonplace, crazy drugs, & just fucking raw & semi angry.. when i first heard them i knew i was going to be a musician because i had thrived on classic rock & metal, but this was just IT man... it had such an impact, grunge music will always be my heart, forever, it was just too short of an era. But it gave me hope that i hadnt missed the best eras of rock. I was a part of the best timeframe & lucky.. i saw them several times & it was always an experience 🖤🖤🖤🖤
All Apologies, MTV Unplugged in New York version. That whole live album is awesome, they do some covers on it as well, and the album is done with acoustic guitars too.
Also this version of the song is shortened probably because it was the MTV video version. The normal album and radio track is about 30 seconds longer. This version cuts off parts of the opening and the guitar solo in the middle.
yet Grunge is now dead(cobain Staley Cornell) and Aerosmith Guns n roses, Metallica, Bon Jovi, OZZY, Iron Maiden,Judas Priest,.Van Halen, Def Leppard, have the biggest stadium filled worldwide tours in the world...funny how it all comes back around .
Heart Shaped Box should be next. Its such a deep song with so much melodic complexity. Its an accessible song on the surface but when you dig into it there's an extra level of darkness.
My god, I remember when this debuted on MTV. Changed my life. Legit. I wore out this album and ended up wearing out Bleach too, lol. Thanks for this reaction! ☺️❤️
A bomb! That a good way to put it. You also have to put it in context. It's the early 90s and there was all kinds of rock camps. Those of us who were into Metallica, Megadeath and such were likely not into thae hair bands of poision and winger. Others into punk or btitish metal like Iron Maiden and Motorhead. Then this came out. Atotally new sound and look that resonated with a huge number of people. This song is epic epic and I continue to stop and listen whenever it comes on.
Its hard to express what a sea change this was at the time. I was a sophomore in college in the spring of '92. Consider that a year previously, we were walking around campus listening to the likes of REM's "Losing My Religion", Extreme's "More Than Words", LL Cool J's "Mama Said Knock You Out", Maria Carey's debut "Emotion" etc, etc. So, as an experiment, listen to those(or just google the charts for 1991 and put together your own list to prime yourself)...and THEN listen to this! Mind Blown, at the time. This album and Pearl Jam's "Ten" later that year altered the experience of being a young person at that moment in time.
You must listen to theFoo fighters. Dave grohl the singer was the drummer from nirvana. Kurt cobain from nirvana died at the age of 27. The 27 club. Jim morrisson , Jimmy Hendrixs , janis joplin , great singers al died at 27

i was a kid when this song came out (6th grade), and i still remember exactly where i was when i first heard it...and the second time.
I literally remember the red light intersection I was sitting at in my car when I first heard this song and turning it up. And I watched Metallica and Slayer when they were opening bands in the 80's
I agree at just how huge this particular song was
I just wish Nirvana made more songs like this...
Overrated? It thankfully killed the big hair rock/ballad era.
This song completely changed the face of rock music in the 1990's.
This is one of the few songs where I vividly remember the first time I heard it.

This is the biggest song of the 90's. It changed everything.
I don't know if it's the biggest but certainly in Top 10, of not Top 5
@Vincent M
I'd say November Rain is very high.
Jan Ellermeier i liked that song, it was big, but this song changed everything. This was MJ thriller album level.
I agree this was a genre killer...killed hair band hard rock
Jan Ellermeier loved November Rain, but Smells Like Teen Spirit was the biggest song, and Nirvana was the biggest band.
You'd probably like Lithium, In Bloom, Lounge Act, Aneurysm, Heart Shaped Box
NOLOVEfortheLEFTONE yes that line up Preston would love. Hope he sees this
NOLOVEfortheLEFTONE imma check these out, thanks!!
About a girl
Lounge Act is their most underrated song for sure it’s so good but overlooked by the other tracks on Nevermind, it’s my fav off the album I’m not lying lol
I love Lounge Act! One of my definite favorites!
" Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit " , there just couldn't be a more 1990's anthem , huh ?? Great song . For me it brings up a lot of jr high memories and of my late uncle who loved this song .

Kurt’s voice strikes a cord in my soul few other artists can reach.
My favorite Nirvana song is "Heart Shaped Box". The video's got some disturbing, but interesting visuals. Check it out.
Nigga i haven't listen to the songs for years, thank you. I forgot it existed :))))))))
Nirvana - Aneurysm

You think you like them now? Just wait until you hear Unplugged stuff.
Their Unplugged session is above and beyond just about anything else. Period.
Where did you sleep last night is pretty raw
I really like BLEACH. Its a little raw and unpolished especially compared to Nevermind but its harder and primal. Has some great riffs. Floyd the Barber or About a Girl or Love Buzz... fucking everything on Bleach is brilliant.
joshua slomba chilling to think that that was his last song he ever performed live.
The Alice In Chains session tho'
Kurt kobain is the Tupac of rock. Keep listening
No so many artists much more talented and had much more substance. Everything kurt sings about is me me me. Tupac was about his community, race, and politics actually substance.
Haha NO.

true... MTV Unplugged was such an amazing concert.
Best Unplugged, ever, hands down!
Justin Delello I agree react to where did you sleep last night
. It’s an old blues classic.
He has to know the back story first, before watching Unplugged: Where did you sleep last night to really understand the signifigance of the performance.
Hmmm... Neck and neck with Clapton and Alice in Chains. Also if you wanna go back you should react to where did you sleep last night by Leadbelly. Kurt did, they're both amazing
Lithium by Nirvana or any Sublime song off their self titled album.
I came to recommend Lithium as well, IMO, it's by far Nirvana's best song.
THIS SONG CHANGED THE WHOLE DEMOGRAPHIC!!!
I'm honestly astonished you had never heard this before. Love your content homey. Subbed for sure. It is always exciting to relive that feeling of finding a great new song, and I like your openness.
Foo Fighters - Everlong
Listen to nirvana - heart shaped box. That's one of favourites. It's an awesome video too
I was gonna say the same, heart-shaped box is a must, it's the only one I could put on par or closest to smells like teen spirit by them, imo
Yes definitely listen to Heart Shaped Box then you'll be better able to make a decision on the band.
Heart Shaped box
Polly is another favourite ^_^
Really he didn’t know that song......... what................ is it possible
It's a better song, but come as you are is a phenominal song...

I just posted that people should request that and Fell on Black Days lol.
Great song
Alex Rud Seconded. Love that song. Heavy as hell and the passion out of Cornell’s voice is Robert Plant-like to me. Kickass song.
@@caladbolg777 it's a good intro to the band.
Alex Rud definitely agree. Plus it brings back memories of playing Road Rash :)
Legit.
You can taste the passion the guys in Soundgarden feel in Outshined
You should react to Nirvana- The man who sold the world (MTV unplugged)
Was an awesome cover too
Tracer Scythe One of my favorite covers ever.

Metallica's Whiskey in a Jar too!!! House party from hell
Breed id say. Seems like he wants the mosh pit songs from them and breed is the nirvana up tempo mosh pit song.

Personally i like all apologies and breed as my top 2 nirvana songs.
Breed is fun but all apologies has such a deep meaning to the lyrics.
Penny Royal Tea! Classic
love it when Kurts voice cracks from the emotion.
Butch Vig, who produced the album, says Kurt's voice was just destroyed by the end. Butch described it as 'sounds like his vocal cords are coming out of his throat' - Kurt put 100% into it.
Ive watched a lot of your videos and it's rare to see someone actually enjoy music from so many different genres. Subbed 👍
React to Nirvana - Where Did You Sleep Last Night (MTV Unplugged) It's a Leadbelly cover that showcases Cobains vocal character. Or, for something heavy, "Scentless Apprentice" or "Aneurysm" are really good.

You Know You're Right, as far as I'm concerned, is the best lost song ever. I can't think of anything else even close.
You know you're right next
Song that brought glam rock to its knees
I named my son, after Layne Staley (alice in chains..), but he was ALMOST kurt 🖤. This band changed my whole
Life.. i was an aspiring musician, on my own by 14 & a raging addict that functioned well.. this is the epitome of my generation. We were the children of divorce becoming commonplace, crazy drugs, & just fucking raw & semi angry.. when i first heard them i knew i was going to be a musician because i had thrived on classic rock & metal, but this was just IT man... it had such an impact, grunge music will always be my heart, forever, it was just too short of an era. But it gave me hope that i hadnt missed the best eras of rock. I was a part of the best timeframe & lucky.. i saw them several times & it was always an experience 🖤🖤🖤🖤
All Apologies, MTV Unplugged in New York version. That whole live album is awesome, they do some covers on it as well, and the album is done with acoustic guitars too.
Yassss!!!!😂 I was wondering when u were gonna react to this famous ass legendary song!
Changed everything. Yes!
RIP Kurt! Nirvana was a game changer. They have a lot of bangers. Breed, Lithium, Heart Shaped Box, Stay Away.....etc etc.
Nirvana is the perfect example of how art is supposed to “disturb the comfortable and comfort the disturbed”
RIP kURT
Also this version of the song is shortened probably because it was the MTV video version. The normal album and radio track is about 30 seconds longer. This version cuts off parts of the opening and the guitar solo in the middle.
First time you've listened to it and you've already guessed it's a classic. Great reaction video.
Ahh the song that killed hair metal and brought in the grunge era. The drummer in this band sings and plays guitar in Foo fighters
indeed it did kill the metal....
the drummer accually started to foo fighters tho & is the lead
Yup Dave grohl wrote and played all the instruments on the 1st foo fighters album and had to hire a band to go on tour
yet Grunge is now dead(cobain Staley Cornell) and Aerosmith Guns n roses, Metallica, Bon Jovi, OZZY, Iron Maiden,Judas Priest,.Van Halen, Def Leppard, have the biggest stadium filled worldwide tours in the world...funny how it all comes back around .
You gotta do some of his unplugged songs to see how powerful that mans voice really was
Welcome to my youth KingKTF! I was a Senior in HS... and grunge took over my world.
Heart Shaped Box should be next. Its such a deep song with so much melodic complexity. Its an accessible song on the surface but when you dig into it there's an extra level of darkness.
Korn - Wicked
So many memories...... Next: Firestarter by The Prodigy
Dancing with my best friend both of us expecting our first babies. Loved this track then and still love it now. RIP Curt.
My god, I remember when this debuted on MTV. Changed my life. Legit. I wore out this album and ended up wearing out Bleach too, lol. Thanks for this reaction! ☺️❤️
Long Cool Woman by The Hollie's
A bomb! That a good way to put it. You also have to put it in context. It's the early 90s and there was all kinds of rock camps. Those of us who were into Metallica, Megadeath and such were likely not into thae hair bands of poision and winger. Others into punk or btitish metal like Iron Maiden and Motorhead.
Then this came out. Atotally new sound and look that resonated with a huge number of people.
This song is epic epic and I continue to stop and listen whenever it comes on.
What a voice !
KTF, I keep trying to go back to old reaction channels but you and Renaissance are the only ones. That and Wildn with Marcus. Keep it up brother.
"Head like a hole" Nine Inch Nails
Thanks for the Nirvana bro...They got soooo many classics too
I’ll never forget the first time I heard this song... I knew immediately music had changed
Its hard to express what a sea change this was at the time. I was a sophomore in college in the spring of '92. Consider that a year previously, we were walking around campus listening to the likes of REM's "Losing My Religion", Extreme's "More Than Words", LL Cool J's "Mama Said Knock You Out", Maria Carey's debut "Emotion" etc, etc. So, as an experiment, listen to those(or just google the charts for 1991 and put together your own list to prime yourself)...and THEN listen to this! Mind Blown, at the time. This album and Pearl Jam's "Ten" later that year altered the experience of being a young person at that moment in time.
You must listen to theFoo fighters. Dave grohl the singer was the drummer from nirvana. Kurt cobain from nirvana died at the age of 27. The 27 club. Jim morrisson , Jimmy Hendrixs , janis joplin , great singers al died at 27
