#Nirvana #DrainYou #Nevermind
One of the best Nirvana songs and for sure underrated as hell
I still love this song as I did 30 years ago
From my first listening to Nevermind 30 years ago I always thought this song was way better than SLTS!
@@Ncebulsky Of course agreed! :)
YES
underrated?
“I don’t care what you think unless it is about me”
every time I hear that line it feels so real people are naturally made that way Kurt’s writing here is just at one of its best
What did you think when you heard the Fall Out Boy song that copied that line (I Don’t Care)?
Unlike yours.
@Chicken Parma Love both, but Kurt said it first!!
@Chicken Parma homage, think a bunch of bands have given Nirvana shout outs like that (eg. Blink 182 etc)
Check out our cover
You can't be misanthropic when you write a relationship song like that. Kurt had emotional deficiencies, but he wrote this song when he was happy to discover love. A great song. And what great inspiration! Great riff!
ua-cam.com/video/l9agX9mRCW0/v-deo.html
he got drain you from a gf he was dating when they broke up she told him it was a job to drian you
to me kurt was the complete opposite of misanthropic. he cared too much.
He definitely drained his brain a few years later...
it's not a love song lol
Nirvana will never be forgotten. The simple riffs Kurt made proved that riffs don’t have to be technical to make it a good song. I’m currently starting a band rn, and I’ll always give credit to Nirvana for inspiring our riffs.

Kurt's voice is like a breath of fresh air
U're goddamn right🙄💪🏾
it really does
A fresh breath of air after having the worst day ever 😌
He Dead
@@Howyadoin6969 Hopefully your next.
This song is such a blast to play. I got a concert coming up in six days of me writing this where I'll play bass and sing this song. One of the best Nirvana songs ever.
how did the concert go??
@starrybear-0 was good.
this is literally my favorite nirvana song ever. kurt’s voice is so beautiful and dave’s harmonies😤😭❤️
is not Dave .. is kurt overdub
Kurt had such a unique voice. There are harmonic overtones, the timbre, the pronunciation. It's just so unique. Often imitated, but never duplicated.
@@paranoizehfx Not bad dude.
@@paranoizehfx Pretty good.
He had a terrible voice
Well the harmonics are Dave
@@caseydopp318 those would be harmonies, harmonics are naturally occurring overtones that happen with every sound
Can we all agree to play this song every April the 5th in memory and honour of one of the greatest rockstars that lived ?
That's pretty sick, man.
But, yeah, I do it.
Sad day, April 5th, 1994
Usually I'll make it a point to listen to Nirvana a lot in April anyway,
Fun Fact: This was actually Kurt's favourite song he made.
Mine too
About his ex no doubt 😉
This was probably tie with SLTS for my favorite song on the album, back when I first got it in the 90s.
mine too
Never heard that before. Site your source limey.
Fun fact: This was the song, Kurt actually thought would be the main hit of the album, not "Smells Like Teen Spirit".
And for a good reason. I always considered Drain You to basically be a perfect pop song. Now, after all these years I find out (thanks to this comment section) that Kurt himself considered it to be THE hit for Nevermind. Wow. I just have to say I agree with the person who created it lol
I thought it was come as you are
@amandabrewster5327 I think it's the second biggest song on the album?
@@Edd1sl0st 2nd biggest song on nevermind is in bloom
fun fact: he was probably bullshitting a little bit.
i dont know what it is about nirvana it just gives me this nostalgic sweet feeling,and a slight feeling of sadness,i cant describe it,it makes the air diffrent and i have no other way of describing it.
Yes. Yes. AND YES!!!!!!! I can't put it in words either, but this is the closest😢😊
I freaking love nirvana, helps with anxiety in school.
fr
Me too
Hope u get better

“eyes so dilated i’ve become your pupil” is my favorite line ever

Mine too!!

Mine too and the next one as well
Turn it around.
“ wet eyes so

“ with eyes
so dilated..
you’ve
become

the Greatest of all time hands down
yep
Sure left an impression on me. Still my favorite album 30 years later
Nahh
@@kurdtcobain2896 miss you
Nope, I mean they're good but still not Alice in chains
I am 43....grew up with Kurt and this music.... And nowadays.... It's still amazing.... I fcking love Nirvana....
So you mean you were about 10 or 11 when this came out and you 'grew up with it' oh ok. I thought being in my 50s and late teens at the time meant I grew up with it. Who knew? Well, a lot of ppl after the fact it seems. Just like all the Americans who only knew they even existed a long time after they were already big in England, about the time when they saw their worst ever song on mtv.
Listening to "Drain You" invites not just an emotional but also an interpretive engagement. The listener, harboring a dream of living a great love story, may find themselves reflecting on the lyrics and music in relation to their own life experiences and desires. The song becomes a canvas onto which they project their longing, fears, and hopes about love. The act of listening thus transforms into a deeply personal experience, where the song's narrative intertwines with the listener's internal narrative, creating a unique and subjective interpretation.
Exato
2:27 Kurt's scream gives me chills!
This buildup reminds me of Pink Floyd - Pow R. Toc H.
That entire build up and resolution is one of my favorite moments in all of music hands down.
Gives me Goosebumps every time.
@@Lept010 It does indeed! You have a good ear my friend.
thats kurt?
Lyrics:
One baby to another says, "I'm lucky to have met you"
I don't care what you think unless it is about me
It is now my duty to completely drain you
I travel through a tube and end up in your infection
Chew your meat for you
Pass it back and forth
In a passionate kiss
From my mouth to yours
I like you
With eyes so dilated, I've become your pupil
You taught me everything without a poison apple
The water is so yellow, I'm a healthy student
Indebted and so grateful, vacuum out the fluids
Chew your meat for you
Pass it back and forth
In a passionate kiss
From my mouth to yours
I like you
You, you, you
You, you, you
One baby to another says, "I'm lucky to have met you"
I don't care what you think unless it is about me
It is now my duty to completely drain you
I travel through a tube and end up in your infection
Chew your meat for you
Pass it back and forth
In a passionate kiss
From my mouth to yours
Sloppy lips to lips
You're my vitamins
I like you
Thank you for the time to post the lycs, much appreciated!
Nice
I like You 👍
MERCI BEAUCOUP

I’m overjoyed because of new uploads despite the fact that I’ve heard the song a million times already 🥲
One of the best songs ever written, played, song and performed in general. Everything about this song gives me chills.

He does best
Take this as a sign everyone, Kurt loves you all 🤍
Man is literally dead though
thank you rodrick
Not all.
The whole Nevermind album is full of Beatle inspired pop hooks. 'Drain You' is the perfect example of combining a beautiful melody with a cutting edge.
Damnit now I want a cover of drain you inspired by the early Beatles sound 😭
Fuck the Beatles.. these young was about grunge... sinebidy is always comparing music to some other era... nirvana stands along... fuck the Beatles
@@inserthahafunniusername9656listen to the drain you demo lol

This song has helped me through so much, whether it be through depression or school or loneliness or all of the above.
It sound so darn goooood, such a shame we'll never experienced it live...
@Phoque Alyse most new fans like me (im 14) are young, so we couldn’t have the chance to go even if we loved them sooner
@@RJ_Question ive known this song for most of my life but im 14 too
@@RJ_Question 14 is the age I fell in love with this band, I am 25 now. good to see the next generation of youth still enjoying this masterpiece

I was 14 when Kurt died
This song is just perfect in everyway. I don't what it is about it, but it always gives me this weird nostalgic feeling of teen angst and love thats hard to describe
Check out our cover
What songs! What an albom! What a PERSON! Kurt is always in our hearts... :(((((( And though Im 39 year old angry man in tattoos, I wanna cry....
「あなたの人生のエンドロールに選ぶべき曲は何？」と聞かれたら真っ先に思い浮かぶ曲がこれだね完全に😶🌫️
this will forever be my favourite nirvana song
The guitar solo making a bridge between the chorus is just magnificent
Best piece of modern music (non classical) ever made
one of the best*
The best, that's the point for me@@billy1126
@@billy1126 nope, the one, that's the point of my post
This song means so fucking much to me. It’s one of those that I can never get tired of hearing, an immortal theme. Sure, it’s not the most complex piece of music ever, but it doesn’t have to be. It’s just damn good, and that’s more than enough. Brings me back lots of memories too, makes the song better for me.
cool story bro
so many Nirvana song i just can't get sick of
I swear to god I feel the same way every time I listen to Drain You it’s like the first time, lots of memories in the early 90’s with my brothers and this album too.
I feel the same way about New Way Home by the Foo Fighters. Some songs just hit different.
I actually have ocd this song 20 years strong. Unbelievably good
The way this song starts🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Leaving this comment here so when someone likes it I’ll come back
Long live Nirvana
Smells like teen spirit hit hard when i was just starting high school. I bought Nevermind, and then accidentally found out about Bleach (there was no internet for the masses to speak of in 1992), and became addicted to Nirvana. This is, by far, my second favorite Nirvana song.
Whats your favorite nirvana song? Mines frances farmer will have her revenge on seattle
@@AJbigboy2 that's my number 3 favorite! My number one will always be Pennyroyal Tea. It's so raw and real.
@@MindStateMediaInc penny royal tea is one of my favorites, i love the mtv unplugged verision
@@MindStateMediaInc i also think sappy is a good song, definitely in my top 10
Even in this shitty times we live through right now, it's still refreshing to listen to bands like this
My dad used to play this song in the car..this was in the early 00’s I never knew this was nirvana until I was like 10 Ive been a fan of nirvana for a few years now. I bet it would’ve been really surreal to see them live back in the 90’s!
Hi I Recommend a song called 'the bond villain' by Robert Nix
I come back to this frequently because it’s such an inspiring melody. Simple but perfect and genius
Check out our cover
We’re born as complex creatures to embrace simple pleasures.
How deep down the rabbit hole you go is on you.
December 1993 in Los Angeles live at the great western forum i was truly fortunate to see my number 1 band of all time NIRVANA! watching Nirvana and listening to Kurt singing drain you was unforgettable moment. it’s a time I wish and wish I can go back to my 90s teen life !!
the song has weird lyrics but it goes so well . its so powerful when they get to the part where David Grohl sang with him adding another voice track. i love the commitment
fun fact kurt thought that this will be hit of the album, and he thought smells like teen spirit will be least
wasn’t drain you one of his favourites (if not his favourite)
I dedicate this band and especially song to my Beautiful Brother Shane who's anniversary is today NYE. I love and miss him so much❤️💔 Nirvana was his favourite band and thanks to him he got me into them. God bless him may he R.I.P🙏
This gives off one of those Love/ Romantic Movies if you know what I mean 😩 0:07
Yes! Like one of those high school love movies!
Nirvana is a Generation in it self ....and i am glad to be part of
This is one of the rare songs that at least for me seem to perfectly describe selfish, narsisitic people that you’ll meet in life. People who really think ”don’t care what you’re thinking unless it’s about me” and how they’ll completely drain you. But I love how unique and artistic the lyrics are. Probably my favorite nirvana song. It’s perfect.
pretty sure its that + heroin
@@ShleemenLive another good perspective of the song is the pov of a baby talking about its mother, lines such as "it is now my duty to completely drain you", "I travel through a tube and end up in your infection" and "one baby to another says I'm lucky to have met you" prove this point
Maybe you are a hypocrite
The meaning of the song has nothing to do with it. This is a love song, about passion
I can’t believe this many people suck ass at interpreting lyrics
Mesmerizing, stunning! They will be listened to for ages!
Check out our cover
There's something about this song that won't go away, it's been with me for 10 years. I love all their albums but this song won't stop haunting me. I would play their albums and find myself repeating this song the most 😂
love this song, I could listen to this a million times

Most amazing guitar sound you will here period !
I love music, grew up on rap but got close to my dad by 16 and he introduced me to nirvana, goosebumps every time
You can really hear the happiness in his voice.
Said nobody EVER !!!
The years pass by and my love for this song and this band just grows!!! Thank you Kurt, Dave and Chris!🔥🤘
For 30 years and counting, the high point of pure, unadulterated rock.
30 years of Nevermind, Kurt will never be forgotten, legends never die.
What an amazing song... powerful loaded with power
No doubt bro.
Probably the best song ever.
This and Come As You Are are my favorite songs off this album 🙌 Best album ever! It’s dumb that people think that it’s overrated when it’s literally one of the greatest rock albums made of all time in rock history
Check out our cover
Yeah people who say it's overrated are wrong, overplayed maybe but that doesn't change how amazing this album is.
Yes
This is my favorite Nirvana song, and i don't really hear a lot of people talking about it. It's seriously underrated.

Till this day it’s one of the best nirvana songs and so underrated
One of the weirdest and best love songs of all the time.
i dont think its a love song tbh
i feel like it alludes more to a relationship with drugs
@@prithishchandna8819 it was written about Toby vail as was lounge act and aneurysm
Yes it is 😞
@@prithishchandna8819 it's a love song, in fact. it's about his relationship with Bikini Kill's drummer, Tobi Vail, in 1990. The phrase "one baby to another..." was hers.
@@prithishchandna8819 nope
Reminds me of my high school girlfriend. This song was on my iPod (I’m old) playing when I walked up to her to tell her my feelings. I still stay in contact with her and this is a song we both listen to even though we’re just friends. It represented an era. Young love.
Truly the love song of all time
Hands down,one of my favourite songs from Nirvana...love It!
Check out our cover
Kurt said this was his favorite songs he wrote and loved to play it.
Salve galera do Brasil, tô aqui acordado na madrugada e tive essa supresa, canal do Nirvana postando vídeo. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
salve amigo, lembra daqui ainda?
No smells like teen spirit, this is the song that Kurt really wanted to sing 💯
Sem dúvidas kkkk
Nah Kurt HATED that song this was his favorite
Happy birthday Kurt :D!
If I wish he were alive and saw how his music has influenced other generations...
Fantastic song
One of the best songs from nevermind 🔥🔥🔥
The clean guitar tone in the intro brings me so much joy
Best Nirvana song ever
No one will ever know the feels I feel, when I feel this. It's 1998, I'm 13 and in middle school, class just let out, and we have a wrestling meet that night. Plain as day, I'm there.
One of my favourites from Nirvana - crazy, romantic, emancipating... and absolutely underrated.
This is the Nirvana song that inspires me the most. I love it so much.

don't do drugs tho
Una vez más reunidos por una buena causa, hermanos !!!
Every year listening Nirvana, the show never ends
This song makes me so hyped when I hear it, never gets old when I listen
I love all Nirvana songs, this one is kinda the best.
I agree. Awesome song. 😎♥️🇮🇪🙌
drain you to something in the way is the best song run in album
history
Drain you and serve the servants are my 2 favorite songs tbh
Fr
In that case, you would love all of Donald Marshall's work. He wrote pretty much all of Nirvana's material. Even came up with the name.
@@matthewzakszewski6202 I call absolute bullshit. Kurt wrote all of Nirvana's material. There are even demo tapes of him performing some songs on his acoustic guitar such as Been A Son, Lithium, and I believe Serve The Servants.
One of my favorites songs.
Get goose bumps evertime Kurt stomps on that Boss DS-2.RipKurt youve helped me through everything,I wish I could have seen Nirvana live 😢
You could tell Kurt really loved this song, this one got a lot of stage time
Check out our cover
Yeah well because he was a heroin addict and this is about shooting dope.
@@MB-vk8cv No
@@MB-vk8cv this song is ab loving someone where its draining for the other person where tf did u get that its ab doing dope
@@shinasyyy To some people, every song is about drugs. Tells you more about them than the song.
One of the most beautiful song of all time.
Nirvana is like a great wine. It gets better when its older.
One of the first songs I've heard from Nirvana still to this day I listen to this beautiful melody
Check out our cover
I've always loved the strange sounds at 1:40.
it’s actually one of those yellow rubber chickens squeaking!!
They came from a bunch of toys Kurt brought to the studio one day - I think he bought them from a nearby thrift shop
Though Albinis production is better imo, Butch Vig got a lot of tricks up his sleeve
He made simple songs sound like no other songs ever created in his time man rip Kurt the story behind him is truly upsetting
Still love this song as I did almost 30 years ago
Same
20 years for me, but yep. It's timeless.
11 years for me, was the song of my adolescence
My favorite Nirvana song. Underrated asf 🔥
fun fact: tons of people think this song is unpopular but it isn’t. It is the 12th most played song on nirvanas spotify.
because tiktok just made it that way
Im new to nirvana i havent heard alot but this is my favortie song so far
If you liked this one, check out Lounge Act. I think it sounds kinda similar.
I Love You Nirvana 💙
