    Love these acoustic demos from Kurt. Think if he lived on and made and entire acoustic solo album, with songs like Do Re Mi. That would be so awesome.

    • @GingaJamiesBMX
      @GingaJamiesBMX 9 років тому +37

      Do Re Mi was meant to be for an acoustic solo album he aimed to do with many other famous artists. (Him and Michael stipe from R.E.M came up with the idea.)

      +Tomnedreb He was actually planning on it. Too bad someone had to put him out like that. He could've recovered. He was just down for a bit because of the whole Courtney thing. I could imagine his thoughts about her with all the facts adding up in my head. Just watch Soaked in Bleach. Nuff said.

One of the most amazing songwriters ever. just put yourself in his shoes, he had so much pain, sad how great people go like this..

  • @SionBarzhado
    @SionBarzhado 2 роки тому +8

    To preface, I say this as someone who doesn’t know the *full* story surrounding Kurt Cobain’s relationship with Courtney Love and his daughter. All I know about Courtney Love is that she was also an artist (maybe before or after they met?) and that she was his wife. I’ve only listened to around 8 or 9 of Nirvana’s songs including some demos by Kurt, all of which I’ve enjoyed, and watched the Biographics channel’s mini-documentary on Kurt’s life, as well as clips from separate interviews with Kris Novoselich, Dave Grohl, and Frances Bean about Kurt’s suicide and absence from their lives from them onwards. I’ve also seen a few of those videos of Kurt just being a goofball with and without his former band mates.
    From this wonderfully put together collage, combined with this song and what I know so far of Kurt and his life, it’s all just so sad to observe. I see a guy who was funny, intelligent, creative, affectionate towards animals (there’s a picture of him holding a kitten close to his daughter and another of him holding a puppy in this collage), a loving father, or at least it seems like he really tried to be, in his time with Frances. A great person all around.
    However, his demons sadly proved to be too strong for him to be able to continue on at a point. As much as I hate to say this, which I again say not knowing the *full* background to his relationship with Courtney Love, I don’t think his wife really did as much as she could have to help him on a personal level. I hate to sound shallow saying this, but whenever I look at Courtney Love she just emits this aura that really rubs me the wrong way. She seems a bit phony to me, as if she’s concerned more with her own personal vanity and success than the well-being of others. I feel as though she didn’t value Kurt as much as she should have.
    I had to put this thought out there in *some* form instead of just purely letting it simmer in my mind. I hope I at least made some sense in expressing my thoughts on this situation. If you’d like to let me know how off-base I am, please do. I just pulled this out of my ass as I listened to this for the 1st time earlier today.
    Long story short: I think Kurt Cobain was probably an overall good dude who wasn’t as valued by his romantic partner as he deserved. It just breaks my heart to even think about people not valuing those they have romantic attachments to as much as they should.

      The original lyric may be more poetic and in line with the rest of Kurts vibe, but the final line isnt just nonsense it makes more sense to the theme of the song. Kurt was tired of the media picking apart his songs with what he could and couldn't say and that was his response.

      @bringbackthe1960sppl 6 років тому +3

      Der Baron I agree but also disagree in different terms.
      She can hit higher notes better, but Kurt can scream and sing at the same time that no one else was able to do it the way he did because of literally the way his stomach was positioned with his spine from his bad posture, including scoliosis. Everyone that tries to copy his singing (and can do it close to spot on) does this little hitch on their posture that's similar to his scoliosis, check it out on videos and you'll see what I mean.
      But also Kurt was able to do pretty complicated rythmn on top of singing.
      Like for example, drain you on top of singing is actually really hard, unless you go exactly on time at the beginning. Pay attention to their early live preformances of it. If Kurt doesnt go exactly on time in the beginning he will restart the whole song.
      But yeah just wanted to point out some things.
      She would definitely beat him at dancing talent of course haha or who knows maybe he was more talented behind closed doors lol
