I think that when you're playing a song, any song really, but most especially and emphatically when it's a song that you wrote, you're free to do it any way that it happens to come out. There are what you might call mistakes, when something unplanned occurs, and you would want to roll with it. These guys are incredible.
the meat puppets have given me so much joy in my life. they should be inducted to the rock and roll hall of fame for their excellence and influence for all those who have followed them and stood on their broad shoulders
It’s the power of the insight and musical expansion. This is one of the all time greatest feats of songwriting. It transports me, it’s literally my childhood, and the outro/bridge/solo is truly masterful. The “mistake” was even better than the original.
This is such a beautiful song and sound. The brothers Meat Puppets are fantastic writers and musicians. I feel like I'm dreaming when I listen to this performance.
They really only ever had one minor hit (backwater). Like it or not Nirvana made these songs famous. I like the meat puppets but I don't think I'd vote them into the hall of fame.
Awesome even the slip...it doesn't matter that f-n guitar and bass!!!! The drums are a don't judge a book by it's cover thing. Very fitting. Sounds great!!!
this is their song... Look a the credit of nirvana unplugged ! Nirvana song three Meat puppets song in the unplugged, and Kurt said it just before the first one
@@Philip.A.Holmes I don't think people even realize that the guitar and bass player of the Meat Puppets were doing the majority of the instrumentation in the Unplugged version. Obviously it was a Nirvana gig, but Kurt wanted the Meat Puppets songs to be performed in the fashion of "Meat Puppets, featuring Kurt on vocals, Krist on 2nd guitar, and Dave on drums".
Just gotta live how they never took themselves serious, theybjust do what they do, especially the way they can brush off people always mistaking their original as being a cover, meat puppets will always have a place in ky heart
My comment was an elaborate joke, that obviously failed. It was in referance to the fact that many Nirvana fans thought that "world" was an original Nirvana song.
I lost it at "cover of nirvana" loool
ZeeZee GooLoo
"Let's do one of those nirvana songs" lmfao!!
@@MyT2000 curt is so funny.
Without Nirvana millions of people never even heard of these guys
@@DannyBZ9 yeah and look how big they got because of it!! gtfo
@@spud_grrrl what's your point?
They're still pretty underground.

They are so quiet gentle kurt must have simply adored yer sound lyrics feeling its so lovely play it how u wanna play it ,❤ i'm loving this .thku
Still brilliant, still haunting, still Meat Puppets; hard to comprehend it has been thirty years since it was written.
It's about construction and production
that outro is so fucking beautifull
The Plateau is clean. No dirt to be seen.
The end of this song makes me cry
the meat puppets have given me so much joy in my life. they should be inducted to the rock and roll hall of fame for their excellence and influence for all those who have followed them and stood on their broad shoulders
the Rock and roll hall of fame shouldn t exist doesnt make any sense

Love these guys!! Thanks Kurt for turning me onto this awesome music
Love the wicked Bass and Guitar arrangements on this great song!
I love this version
Nirvana covered this song. It was written by the Meat Puppets. It's on their album "II" which was released in 1984.
Raw and bad ass. Their end of song solo instrumental rants are epic. Makes me miss acid.... kind of.
Man, I love this! Thanks Meat Puppets!
"Let's play that Nirvana song" lmao fucking Curt, and yes his name is Curt but spelt with a C
+Le guide de L'Internet he's making a joke. the man playing the meat puppets songs name is curt.
@@Ryder-bb8le xd
Very creative, I love it! Thanks for sharing.
Still echoing through my consciousness.
thanks for creating this song
Love it. You're a great band.
That was awesome.
Amazing guitar playing, but that full keys pocket drum is fantastic!!!!
Amazing! Long live the Mpups!
that harp is dope
why are they not in the hall of fame?
because the hall of fame is shit
I like crayons because he can't sing worth a hoot
They're in Arizona's HOF of Music.
@@lesfaul4924 yeah and that matters

Hahaha this song is their song, Meat Puppets 's
Increíble presentación, si estaban grabando, pues así graban los grandes!!!!!

This guy really makes this song his own! Amazing!
The original song was written by him

@@Visualizemyfuture I'm glad someone pointed that out. lol

Keys and a tote will work every time.
That guitar outtro helps to put my 11 month old son to sleep

Welcome back....
Hermoso
I love how they are using keys and trash cans for the drums :) good thinking.
🔥🔥🔥
Can you do Heart-Shaped Box?

Just gotta live how they never took themselves serious, theybjust do what they do, especially the way they can brush off people always mistaking their original as being a cover, meat puppets will always have a place in ky heart
I used to grow up wanting to be like muddy waters or robert johnson, but all i wish now is to grow and age just like the pueppets did!
Love it.
Also where can I get me one of those vintage p basses with the tele style headstock?
They sound THICK!
Fuckin amazing shit
excelente
It's not a cover of Nirvana but the Meat puppets THE original...GREAT
Outro beast
Ok, thanks
The brothers meat
I like when bands messed up... It adds alot of uniqueness to song,, that guitar outtro was dope
It's about construction and production
Senyum yang masih sama saat mtv Unplugged bersama mendiang kurt
That was awesome! I love when the distortion kicks in and completely takes over. Best Nirvana cover EVER! XP
Nirvana cover :DDDD
Wtf?? Nirvana cover? maannnn
Best wishes from folks you know
And also from the Holy Ghosts
dont exaggerate, there was only two lines of the lyrics left in the song when he fucked them up. "whatever", that was great.
Outro is clean
Hey! I own those very same shorts the gee-tarist's wearing
Cool story bro
MEAT PUPPETS RULE!!!!! ~~~
ENOUGH SAiD...
The people are always right
Is that one of those 'Property of US Government' postal bins?
the brothers meat puppets
OMG it just doesn't get any better than Curt Kirkwood!
Spotify, please 🙏
👍...
the USPS box??!?!!!!!
Other KEXP-Videos got like a couple thousand views, this you know why.
Want to hold hands and have a good cry with me over this touchy subject. Let me know if you need indication.
Nice cover
not a cover if you wrote it which he did
послушал бы часовую версию соло ))
в их лайвах полно длинных соло в этой песне)
Muffed it at the end...."some said Mexico."
Dan Madera some said !folks, you know! "whatever.." ..
Not Mexico but wherever they stood but I heard Mexico alot on other videos and yeah Mexico should have been the plateau
Yes, and let us burn incense and watch as the blood drips from our wrists like a leaky ceiling.
Back in the day I thought the title was Plato, and the song was about the greek philosopher, then I read the title Plateau, oh, ok
much better!!
Nice Nirvana cover.
I'm kidding pls don't hurt me. :v
ahahhhahahah really great cover! =)
Petite Bourgeoise meat puppets created this song
oh you poor thing, this went right over your head, didnt it?
bad joke bro...
@@torretacampeche6763 r/wooosh
"XP". Revealing my use of sarcasm.
'Tis
lol. Curt is such a troll.
I'm REALLY starting to dig this band
Messed up his own lyrics at “Mexico”.
oh, сris is already gray-haired ...time is running out
merci les Meat Puppets mes je préfère la version de Kurt
Too bad the lyrics took a dive at the half way mark. Great to hear this though.
Даже медведи в России знают что это covered Nivana...
Cobain is Much Better than Ever.. ^ ^
One of those nirvana covers
No Man, you're wrong .
Nirvana covered this song!
lol "nirvana cover" (:
Not as good as David Bowie's 1969 cover of The Man who sold the world
This isn't a cover by them, it's their song
My comment was an elaborate joke, that obviously failed. It was in referance to the fact that many Nirvana fans thought that "world" was an original Nirvana song.

They may have wrote it but Nirvana play it so much better imo.
