This song is near and dear to me! Seattle native and huge Nirvana/Foo/Dave Grohl fan!
Two things I observed during this process that I never noticed before:
1. 5:35 How the guitar from the end of the solo keeps going well into the next verse... changing pitch throughout. Love that!
2. Awesome crash cymbal on every beat in the two lines of chorus "A mulatto, an albino, a mosquito, my libido". Intelligent use of a crash cymbal. Drives the chorus into the bridge!
One more thing... LOL @ Justin's background music. Is it me or does it add to the comedy?
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND:
Yoav - Blood Moon: ua-cam.com/video/hnuyJ_v7kTQ/v-deo.html (gives me chills!)
Just finished... *WOW!* 🏅
The cover reminded me of Portishead!
(I didn't click out to check, yet!)
@@k_spats Yes it does! Thank you, as always K. 😊
Crazy to think that this song is over 30 years old now.
And Portishead...wow, had almost completely forgotten about them.
@@letsgo-reacts lol. you are all my pets! I heart you all equally. 😅
@@letsgo-reacts 🤣😂🤣
💜💫✌🏼🎵 You're funny!
Nirvana changed music with this one song. When it was released it (almost) instantly killed all the hair bands / glam rock from the 80’s. It was the very first grunge rock song released, before they labeled it grunge. Still get the same chills and adrenaline rush like the first time I heard it.
Kurt Cobain. One of the few humans who perfected the art of screaming in perfect pitch.
the most overrated group together with the beatles ever...
@@seelenwinter6662 Why would you come to a video about Nirvana to hate about Nirvana, it makes no sense to me
@@seelenwinter6662 Nirvana>>>> Beatles
And yes both are overrated but they were talented
@@seelenwinter6662 Don't cut yourself on all that edge dude.
@@Edits_Panic0 please just shut up. Beatles will always be better but Nirvana is still good
Its hard to explain to people what an impact this song had on the culture on the early 90s. After a decade of glam rock that had kind of jumped the shark, this was raw and original to mainstream listeners. Almost over night kids went from wearing hair spray to flannel, and thus "grunge" was born. This song effectively killed a decades worth of that style of music, it was really incredible to watch and live through as a young teen.
Yessir iconic.
30+ years later this song still gave me the chills
I feel old, am 46 and remember when they came out. They were incredible. I'm glad the younger generation is appreciating them the same way I did. Music is music, and transcends time....rock on!
Imagine what 65 feels like. Now listen to Black Sabbath’s “War Pigs.” And really study the lyrics. All the best. Always. Be kind. Always.
one of the anthems of music
43, defined my youth. Feel u brotha
Great music is timeless. And we got to live and expieriance through alot of it. Music makes life amazing.
This made me kind of emotional. Watching a whole new generation be introduced to the enigma that was Kurt Cobain makes me happy. I hope they all go on to explore the music and the man more. He was too good for this world.
Ah yes, the song that murdered every hair band around the world.
This kind of bringing tears to my eyes.Takes me back to 16 when this song debut on MTV. Seeing them enjoy reminds of that feeling of the first time Smells Like Teen Spirit played. I do miss the 90s
As soon as that chorus hits, people who never thought they were headbangers became headbangers. One of my favorite Nirvana songs. It's hard to believe he's been gone 28 years now (longer than he was alive!). Great job, Momma!
This song is best appreciated against the context of the mainstream when it came out. Just amazing
This song ushered in one of the greatest genres of rock.
Nirvana start to become a music legend.
Saw a few years ago this was voted the 3rd most influential song of all time. Changed music forever.
This song changed the world
Im 47. When this came out, it changed everything. Metal was coming to an end, grunge was born. They played in my hometown city of Cork Ireland in Sir Henrys club. This was the biggest gamechanger of my generation. My teen son whose now 14 loves Nirvana!!
This song explains the 90’s in 3 minutes. I was in 8th grade when this hit. The greatest 20 year stretch of my entire life
Lol I was in the 8th grade too😊 and was so happy alot of my friends was loving it as well
Nirvana paved the way for stellar grunge and metal artists. Rest in peace Kurt Cobain.
I dont condone what kurt cobaine did in his past as a junkie that was all him and courtney love they chose to use the drug that killed him im not judging him i see junkies everyware look i dont care where they get the crack thats not my business i use to get high just not on needles
I was in a Senior in highschool when this dropped. A friend of mine said " Hey you need to check this out, these guys are going to change music".
Dude! This exact same thing happened to me. I was a senior in high school and this class mate was like "man you got to come to my car and hear this tape I got. This is the future of music." Well... he was right. So funny.
same, but I was a sophomore and went to a friend’s house. he was playing a cassette of Bleach. I was like, WTF IS THIS!?! some up and coming band called Nirvana. we had no idea what we were actually hearing.
30 years on and it still speaks for the generations
I like to call myself “black early emo.” Nirvana changed my entire musical take on life. Once, some time ago, I went to a club that played hip hop. One person requested this song, and an entire colorful mosh pit started. It was absolutely epic.
Beautiful.
I was 13 or 14, freshman year in high school out in Oregon. The first time I saw it on MTV, I was blown away. I went to school the next day and it was all we were talking about. We couldn't understand 90% of the lyrics, but we loved it so much.
I wish so much I could go back and hear this for the first time. It blew my f*ckin mind. People don't understand that we had NEVER heard anything like this. This was new. This was the 90s.
This song changed the world! period
NIRVANA changed music forever with this song! I don't care what race you are you remember exactly where you was when you first heard this song! It will never be duplicated! Never!!
Can I just explain for a second, the impact this one song had on life. Every white person you meet over 40 is the way they are partially in part from this song. Literally changed the landscape of music going forward. Nirvana...the last iconic band
I miss that time...
@@fox225911 much better times
What Id take to go to that time
I'm 49 now and this is one song of my life. Proud that when it came out I was 18 and I noticed, that this was something epic!
Not just white people black people too!
This song changed the lives of millions of young people around the planet, including my own. ❤
Gotta love when they let that chord ride. That was genius. People say it's just nostalgia, but as you can see..great music is always great music.
I cry every time I hear this song....beings me back to being a 14 yr old....miss Kurt and his voice
I was 15 when i heard this masterpiece back in 91. Good times.
Dave Grohl going ham on them drums!!! Love that man!
Legendary never dies ❤.
Oh yeah takin me back to my high school days! I was 17 when the grunge era hit the scene. Nirvana, Stone Temple Pilots, Soundgarden, Alice In Chains, Pearl Jam were the angry soundtrack to my high school years!
maybe I am biased but I think it was one of the best music periods ever... it was short lived but it was powerful and meaningful and pure!!!
@@fox225911 I definitely agree with you on that one.
Yes... I was 16...a flood of memories from my high school and college. The 90s had amazing music
@@robinnelson1248 I still like taking that Journey and looking back. Those days for us are so much more simple. We couldn’t wait to become adults so we could do whatever we wanted but in the end I’d love for my life to be go to school come home hang out with my friends. I’m 46 now and I miss those days.
My high school graduation present to myself was Lollapalooza '92 tickets. Ministry, Ice Cube, Jesus & Mary Chain, and the 3 closing bands were Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, & The Red Hot Chili Peppers. It was an unbelievable musical era.
I was 21 the first time I heard this, in a club on the dance floor. It was so completely different in sound and energy to everything I was listening to at the time. Groundbreaking.
I had to laugh at the "my first time listening" juxtaposed with "I've heard tgis song!" But the best part of these videos is the joy when they rock out. Thanks for putting it all together!
Oh Nirvana. The 90s were a very angsty time and so many kids could relate to GRUNGE music and bands like Nirvana, Sound Garden, Pearl Jam and Foo Fighters to name a few. I was into R&B and hip hop myself but I loved Nirvana and was so sad and angry when Kurt Kobain ended his life. Grunge definitely changed the way kids dressed and brought more awareness to the way young people emotionally handled the world. RIP 4ever Kurt.
I was in my early 20s when this came out and it was an instant hit (even outside of the grunge scene)! Everyone listened to it blasting on full volume and even though nobody was exactly sure what Kurt was saying they sang along with their own words but it was still fun!
It is impossible to have not heard this song before its been sampled and used in so many things its so iconic
exactly !
Yeah!! Even my 5y old boy knows this song, kurt cobain and nirvana.. hahaha these guy think we were born yesterday
Some folks dont like this genre of music. I can guarantee my 30 something kids haven’t heard this
@primeminister66 im saying wether you like this genre or not its been sampled and clipped and put in so many commercials, movies, tv shows etc. That almost everyone has heard it in some form or another.
The song that changed music forever hits a new generation! It does make me feel old though, lol.
i will live forever by the way :)
I hope people understand how this song changed the direction of music. It started the wave. Reinvented rock
First time I saw Nirvana was at the San Francisco Cow Palace New Year show in 1991. Chili Peppers, Nirvana, and up and comer Pearl Jam opening the show. I was already a fan of the chili peppers of course, Nirvana was just exploding and Smells Like Teen Spirit was pretty much the song on everyone's mind, and I never heard of Pearl Jam, but they blew me away and I immediately went out and got their CD the next day.
I'm glad I got to witness that historical event. I was always bummed that I never got to see Zeppelin or Queen or Sabbath in their prime.
But if you were in the right place at the right time at the right age when the grunge movement blew up, it was a seismic shift. Definitely a special moment in music history.
OMG, I was at that show too. Nirvana and RHCP killed it! Unfortunately I didn't enjoy Pearl Jam as much as I'd hoped. It's actually interesting to watch people who aren't familiar with this song or the impact Nevermind had on an entire generation react to it. I admit to being a bigger Mother Love Bone and Alice in Chains fan more than a Nirvana one.
You can hear the influence of Louis Armstrong's vocalization style in Curt's vocal's here. Particularly Armstrong's early GROUND-BREAKING years. This song from this album really was the lever that set the "grunge" movement into full swing. However, in my very humble opinion, Pearl Jam were the pinnacle.
If "Bohemian Rhapsody" was the quintessential '70s song and "Eye of the Tiger" was the king of '80s music, then "Smells Like Teen Spirit" was the tune that defined the '90s.
Dave Grohl is so talented and combined with Kurt and Krist they helped launch that grunge era. Then unfortunately Kurt left us so soon.
It blows my mind when I hear people never hearing grunge, rock, metal. I grew up in rural Maine and heard everything. Nirvana was mind melting. We went from neon colors and spandex to Seattle shit. My generation had grunge for a reason. We rebelled. Fuck you, I won’t do what you tell me! It was all about it.
It's strange how now, in my forties, I understand better why this song hit so hard with me in my teens. I'm not sure if this is what the song was meant to be about, but it reminds me of that strange, awkward, and often painful transition from childhood to adulthood we all go through in our teen years.
One of the best rock songs ever written
I, like most Gen Xers remember the exact moment I heard it for the first time. From where I was, what I was doing, what I was smoking (lol) !
It changed EVERYTHING
You mean we all watched as it went from are little secret band to sold out top 40 and we all stopped tuning in
And we all remember the day he died!
I didn't even know until I watched David Letterman that night. Shannon with the ? On his forehead
We finally had our generational sound
@@memyself6360 Yep. Why do you think Kurt did what he did? He didn't want to be what he became. And the Courtney shit is bonkers.
The last song on their last album was Kurt's apology to fans.
Man i wish i was hearing Nirvana for the first time. I'll never forget the feeling i got when i first heard Kurt's voice...this was the first song my brother learned on the guitar and I'll never forget hearing the first notes over and over lol this compilation video was awesome!
Because of Nirvana i love Grunge..
The first time I heard " Smells like Teen Spirit" blew my mind and ears away!! The pure rawness of Kurt's voice and his crazy lyrics and that awesome guitar 🎸 riff made me a Fan for Life!! I became a musician after that!! Long live NIRVANA!❤️
Excellent compilation. I was intro'd to "Justin's World." funny AF! Man: I remember THIS! Mesmerized by it on MTV, then later telling my even huger Nirvana fan-roomie at the time that Kurt died, wow. I love the story behind the title, the story behind the video, but of course I love most the Rock-revitalizing jet engine of chords blowing your effing hair back that was this iconic tune! Ironic that Kurt (grew to?) hated fame and mainstream appeal, but wrote SUCH catchy hooks that even 2022 is like "WTF?...IS THIS? I LOVE this shit!"
Beautiful!
Boy, I remember when I first heard this. I recorded the video on VHS, as that's what existed back then, and took it to a friend's house and said "Get a load of this!" It was one of those moments when music changed. Astonishing.
Thanks for putting this together. Can see the time you put into it. Love seeing people discover the classics 👍
You couldn’t even see Dave’s face for all the hair.😂😂😂
NIRVANA ARE HYPNOTIC BAND!!!!!!!!
You killed it Momma. Hard to believe it’s their first time. Killer Job and Ty 🔥🔥🔥
I'm so glad the younger generation especially POC are branching out musically and discovering great music like this😁
I’ll never forgot watching the live video debut on MTV when I was like a freshman in HS I was mesmerized. I used to love moshing in the 90’s! 🤘🏽
This made me smile. I was 22 and already a fan of Nirvana before this album came out but when it did, it was life changing. A friend of ours is in the video too. I love watching people discover them for the first time all these years later and this comp still has me smiling like I’m hearing it for the first time again. 😊
Another great job! I knew these had to be tedious before seeing your “making of”, but wow! This song came out when I was a freshman in high school and if I had to pick one song, it was THE anthem for our graduating class. Nothing else even comes close. Again, fantastic job. Can’t wait to see what you’ve got coming next.
Yeah so hard to steal content of people stealing content
@@oisinduggan8944 ROWR... 😂have you watched the end of any of the last ten videos I've done? Yes it's other people's content but it wasn't easy to put together. The people that own the rights to the music are making money off my use of it as well as the reactors' use of it. They don't seem to mind their content being used.
@@WonderMommaOG incredible video production. I want to explore video production so I really liked the behind the scenes.
Many times I’ll go and subscribe to many of the reactors featured. ✌️❤️
I was a teenager in the 90’s! This song and this band still relevant 30years later!
I 💜 this group of reactors together-awesome song!!
Incredible job, WonderMommaOG. Especially love the editing at the end.
It’s hard work and it’s appreciated
Thank you so much!
@@WonderMommaOG The editing was fantastic!!! Good job!
One of my favorite songs. At 51, I still rock out to Nirvana. Every album is on my playlist. Awesome showing the hard work that goes into making your vids! Kudos!!
When I see this I feel so old. :( I was 16 when I heard them first and it was an awakening.
Growing up in the 206, everyone EVERYONE knew this song. Nothing describes the 90s vibe better than this song too IMHO.
3:42 that dude had me FUCKING ROLLING!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is literally the only song I remember hearing when it came out and it was a cosmic shift. Driving across a dam in Cottondale Alabama (rice mine road) driving home from work. The dj said this song has been exploding by word of mouth. Then that intro riff. Realize rock has gotten long hair spandex pop. Always about girls or parties. This was an amazing cultural shift. I’m glad I was there.
"Smells Like Nirvana" was a challenge Weird Al made to these guys to try to parody him. They did a great job, but Weird Al is the GOAT....
Can rightly be called the anthem of a generation.
There was a time when I was young, I was around a lot of rock musicians. Struggling musicians. Lots of restaurant work, sharing apartments, helping each other get to work, sharing meals etc etc.
They were long-hairs. Deeply embroiled in heavy metal, trying to make their live performances work in that genre. The genre they loved and grew up on. Their entire self-identity revolved around the mystique and charisma of heavy metal.
I was giving one of them a ride to work, listening to a local radio station, and a song I liked and had been hearing a lot came on. THIS song.
It was the first time I actually witnessed a mind being blown.
By the end of the summer they stopped dressing like an Alice Cooper tribute band. ALL of them changed their entire musical existence.
Because of Nirvana. Because of THIS song.
Fantastic story. This song did that on a grand scale overall. They were solely responsible for the end of hair metal from the 80s. Thank you for sharing!
Wow WMOG!! It’s apparent how much this song means to you. The intro, outro, background music. The number of reactors you included and how you seamlessly connected and synced. I can still remember the first time I heard this song. It blew my mind and I wanted to hear it again. Appreciate all the effort you put into this compilation. Outstanding!🎶🙏🇨🇦
Many thanks!!
Literally moved to tears 😢
I can vividly remember listening to “Nevermind” on cassette when it 1st came out & about halfway thru I started to get the feeling that I’d heard these songs before….obviously I hadn’t but they were that catchy…..I was 20 years old when this came out 😳the time has flown by 😞
I remember it coming out and everything changed over night in Gen -X
True Grunge from the Pacific Northwest, sad that Cobains career ended so soon and tragically. They were in the midst of a total change in music for that era. Great job keep up the excellent work.
One of the best songs about absolutely nothing, and in the 90's we were all for it and never stopped wanting more.
A lot of people like to treat all grunge artists from the 90's as competitors but for me its a case of a rising tide lifts all boats and this song in particular is a big contributor to that. Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Alice in chains, Green River, bush and many more benefited from this song.
Kurt took an old, worn out chord progression and made it one of the catchiest riffs of all time. Genius dude.
One just cannot deny tremendous energy this song has.
They come from such a cool place. Seattle and that area in there has produced some great bands. From Jimi Hendrix, to Nirvana, Sonic Youth, Built to Spill, Modest Mouse, 764 Hero, you had Pavement and The Pixies in that grunge era.
Mr. Video, was spot on with his reaction, he got the lyrics. Kuddos
1991 crazy NEW!!!!! I was a freshman in college... THIS & Boys to Men were REVOLUTIONARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just follow the history
It only took 31 years but nirvana has officially been brought to everyone. Love you Kurt 😢everyone misses you
Good job WonderMomma, you're so good at this. You keep me hanging for the next!!
You all realize that as a 47 year ild man I SAW ALL THESE DUDES LIVE!❤❤ All this was BRAND NEW and had NEVER BEEN HEARD BEFORE!!!! I'M BLESSED ! The drummer of NIRVANA , ONE OF THE BEST BANDS EVER is also the LEAD SINGER & GUITARIST for one of the BEST BANDS EVER THE FOO FIGHTER'S! ROCK ON DAVE !!!! R.I.P KURT COBAIN
Okay I’ve been binge watching many of these reactions for the past hour.. I can not thank you enough for the trip back to my high school & early adult years.. Nirvana Smells like teen spirit - times we’re wild! When this song dropped this was at the tale end of hair party all day bands.. Entered Rap/Hip hop - New Jack Swing.. you started to hear a new sound brewing with the likes of Alice In Chains, Screaming Trees.. That Seattle sound - Nirvana was the answer to the hair bands, sealed those coffins shut! We all welcomed grunge with open arms. Thank you for doing this ❤ appreciate you!
*YOU'VE OUTDONE YOURSELF!!!* 🏆
💜💫✌🏼🎵
Thank you very much for your dedication for Nirvana, WonderMommaOG ♥️🤘RIP. Kurt Cobain 😭🙏
thank you WonderMommaOG. really appreciate your hard work. saves me a lot of time.
Thank you for your work. I'm always excited when I see that you have a new experience for us.
This video compilation is art. Really captures just how powerful this track is. Pure art.
I was in junior high when this came out (8th grade). I remember where I was when I first heard/saw it on MTV. Changed my life, for the better!
I was 10 years old when this came out. Everything I had heard before this was either the very blues based music of the 60’s and 70’s, regardless of genre, or the more synthetic sounding 80’s, even when it came from metal and hip hop. For people my age, this song literally changed our whole world. Style, attitudes, and perceptions changed overnight. It ushered in an monumental culture shift faster than even the internet or smart phones. It’s hard to explain, you kinda had to be there, but it’s wild to think about.
Never heard it before.
Why is this familiar?
Lol, love it. Rock lives everywhere and forever 🤘
This song dropped going into my senior year of high school and everything at the time was so commercial ... just so over-produced and soulless ... and this was so raw and powerfully real ... it just exploded on the scene and launched an era of music that we have not seen since. PS: Teen Spirit was the name of a deodorant at the time and that is the smell he is talking about.
And Dave Grohl is a musical genius IMHO...
In case anyone is interested or doesn't know, the drummer is Dave Grohl, now the lead singer for The Foo Fighters. Nirvana broke up after Kurt Cobain died and Dave moved on to front the new band.
