Music video by Nirvana performing About A Girl. (C) 2009 Geffen Records
This song is the best Nirvana song, in my opinion. I love the lyrics. No one can write the way Kurt did. Kurt was an artist and a genius. his inner turmoil gave him the ability to write, perform, sing, play, inspire others. his lyrics were one of his greatest strengths. he didn't need someone else to compose a song for him, like a lot of artists today do. he had the thoughts in his head, and made them into great music. I write poetry to express my thoughts. I relate to how much Kurt loved to write out his thoughts
It's my second Favorite Nirvana song, for me it's: 1.Lounge Act 2.About a Girl. Good comment by you
@@Oberbazillus Lounge act is great. Thanks
@@Oberbazillus lounge act is also the greatest nirvana bassline
He;s imitating the way The Beatles used to play the guitar back in the 60's since this concert is in England.
I was wondering if that was cuz of his scoliosis lmao. That's so awesome
Great sense of humor, he had.
@@alladroy2688 what does scoliosis has to do with the way he plays guitar?
Riccardo Condorelli posture because of back pains
Pretty sure it’s cramp
He was so unique
yeah
sabbracadabra as a person he means
Happy to say I was there😀...great days!
lucky ;-;
lucky you
What was it like?
lucky bastard xD
lol show some evidence dude
This is my favourite nirvana song. The simple change between A minor and G is so melodious. Solid bar chords distorted in between and then a simple but effective solo.
Superb
E minor you mean?
Em to G , or from A major to G in the end of the chorus
0:50 kurt cobain going beatles mode
+gamehound265 Heavy guitar hand started to cramp
+Rain Zimmer I know that pain to well haha
Kurt did like the beatles
Rain Zimmer hes very skinny too.Almost no muscle.
At the start of a concert this is not a problem, but u'll feel it afte a while. Look at Rammstein, those guys are big af, and they sound always awesome when they're live. Its amazing to see them live, (not just the performance and everything, but the music itself, and how they all make it happen like clockwork.
gamehound265 lennon style
It's so weird, I can listen to ANY 80s or 90s band, but Nirvana is the one that really takes me back in time.
(not that I was around, so actually I have no right of speaking..)
Got to love the way Kurt plays his E minor chord.
how do u kno fo sho
@@tomnook2914 it shows it at beggining
thank
Makes it an E5
Damn man this concert was off the hook, Kurt went beast mode. I love his cracked out way of holding his guitar, fuckin love this man
This song gives me chills. Kurt Cobain was a genius for emotional songs !
This song gives me so many emotions !
Nirvana was so an amazing group.
probably the best song lennon & mccartney never wrote. it's a classic.
Didn't Kurt cobain make it?
@@aylatibbetts1259 he means, it sounds like a song Lennon and McCartney could have made
Sensacional
Is it weird that I can imagine the Beatles actually covering this? It’d definitely be better than puddle of mud lmao
@@aylatibbetts1259 "probably the best song lennon & mccartney NEVER wrote. "
So awsome...we are in 2022 and you still have millions of fans around the world Cobain and of course...Nirvana! Music was your way to express yourself and we still feeling it 💫
Amazing band. Kurt, Dave and Kris! Let it rock. Rock on in Heaven forever Kurt!
Krist*
the best Nirvana concert!
Azuki Azusa yip i was there ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ that’s how good it was with 70.000 people
I prefer Unplugged but it's a matter of personal choice, I guess
Paramount 91
Hmmm... 91 at Paramount is better
MTV live and loud is better
This version of the solo is my favorite
Rest easy Kurt. You changed music forever.
For me, this is one of the best versions of About A Girl. Simply incredible! We miss you, Kurt. ❤️🖤
These vocals are godly, this band is godly
Reading is a place in the UK which hosts a alternative music festival each year, it is also pronounced Redding :)
I know you didn't ask me, but I assume it is. I remembered hearing that in the studio, before it was released, someone asked Kurt, "What's this song about?" to which he replied, "It's about a girl." And that's where the name came from.
Such talent is born every million years
It kinda freaks me out that I've loved Nirvana most of my life, and I'm now two years older than Kurt was when he died. It just feels strange, I don't know why.
R.I.P. Kurt.
Krist's bass work on this track is superb...
this version is of another level.
Hell; I'm 57 and i love the way Kurt and his band plays; Wish he was alive ; But in out hearts he still lives. and touches people lifes with the words in his songs. Pine needles //////////////////////////////////////// Mijhaze
i love this live..
im 13 years old and i love nirvana and i listen to this music alot...(im doing this to piss the ppl that dont care off)
Lol, today u have 21
Bet u still on it
@@Scentless.apprentice0715 ehh not really i left the phase but I respect the music now. During that time i was big into Nirvana and Greenday lol i used to have this exact video downloaded on my PSP
I'm 15 and I approve this message...
...and I love Nirvana a lot.
How has your life changed
How old are you today?
Holy fuck hes 27 now 😭
Give us a life update please. ❤
Hey! Come back!
....Still miss you Curt... still searching for someone like U
God they're so good. What a shame :/
Ain’t it a shame
sad shame very
About a girl is a single of NIRVANA one of the best songs
Best version
i don’t know if anyone else has commented this, but i think kurt accidentally changed his selector switch around 0:43.
The first time I can play guitar, I played this song. It is 2020, I still love all nirvana's song...
i would say one of the best of our time but he died a year before i was born. ill just say hes a legend. thumbs up if u agree.
nunca me cansare de escucharla
1:58 Him sticking his elbow out gets me every time
0:43 only stratocaster players will understand this
Hehe
Ya boi gets it
I do that at least once every time I play
exploited boy21 I just bought mine can you explain please?
@@mariangargano44 kurt accidentially hit the pickup switch while playing which is why his guitar sounds all weird there
Yes it is. He was shot on December 8, 1980.
2:16 his eyes
Thinking about a girl right now, so it’s very appropriate to listen to this.
i wish i got to see Nirvana live .. Seen the majority of the bands but i missed out on these ... had a ticket for London brixton academy 94 ..
in the 90s my parents saw nirvana live
The Walrus My mom saw them live in Oregon, said it was really amazing. Same year as Reading too.
Beat Sunshine I've seen Alice in chains with Layne Staley, blind melon with Shannon hoon,so close to seeing Kurt.. i was 14 at school and had the ticket for Brixton academy ..my first festival was reading 95 .. saw foo fighters headline the tent .. was an amazing gig.debut record , was insane, 20,000 odd people trying to squeeze in a small tent that could fit 1000 or so !
Leggythe4th i was at this show in August with 70’000 people it was 👍and kurts arms up for no reason and he’s also right handed
I did.
Legend
Learned my first riff from this videos beginning angle :)
Man Kurt seems to be enjoying playing the concert. he did look a bit exhausted but he knew the fans would love to see him.
QUE TALENTO DE KURT COBAIN QUE GRUPOS DE ROCK DE MUCHA TALLA ENVIDIABAN SU MUSICA......
we love you so much, Kurt, Krist and Dave S2
NIRVANA never died !
Nevermind
his voice was really sick
прокуренный
EnemyChemical в самый раз
@@rodionandrianov6970 У Джима Моррисона явно больше прокуренный был. Просто у Курта голос повыше, а у Джима пониже.
easily makes my top 3 nirvana songs
0:43 Accidentally hits the pickup switch on his Strat and sounds like Nile Rodgers for a second lmao
"and take advantage while you hang me out to dry" beautiful lyrics!
Much Kurt , very Beatles
:3
Gotta do a doge meme of that
*Thank you Kurt, very Beatles*
r/woosh
mihai gallo 300th like
i could not agree more, i've grown up in a sad sad generation unfortunatly
I like his voice :)
My personal favorite
Legendary concert.
I love him *-*
Y de ahí fue donde me aprendí la canción directa desde el creador ❤❤❤
el mejor grupo de rock que escuche .saludos desde uruguay.kurt leyenda x siempre.
Para mi el mejor concierto de nirvana
I was wondering why Kurt's guitar tone sounds different, well i see his using the neck pickups. Kurt's ear for sound is one of goddamn finest in this world
respect for Dave Grohl
Happy Birthday Kurt!! ♥ ♥ ♥
his voice hella changed at live at reading is it because of his bronchitis
And drugs.
Alex R. lol that actually mad me laugh xD
He was never "off" it was just popular perception that he was clean, because he made more $$$ if "investors" thought he was off the gear. They rode his cash cow till the wheels fell off
BeAtsboy1209 nah I think it was just because this song might have been towards the end of the show so his voice might have been going from the screaming in his other songs at at the start
His voice is perfect here
Great video! Kurdt actually liked when his name was misspelled. He would do it on purpose. He liked to confuse people.
Why can't fender put the pickup selector somewhere less annoying??
On guitars with it on the top I always switch to the bass pickup by accident. I like it on the bottom. I love the Jaguars. Awesome fuckin guitars.
i have a jag. its like heaven in my hands
420
+Curtis weird, i have a strat and have never had a problem
James Kaznica AYY LMAO
@iTzSamme i was born in '92 ,twenty years late, missed all the good stuff...
the way he's playing the guitar is funnt too me hahaha
he is doing that on purpose or that note he is trying to reach is on the second fret
i think because the song is easy to play he is just messing around hahaha
+Jacob Sala probably kurt does fool around alot I love him for it
+Jacob Sala Don't understand about how to play guitar, so what do you mean about what he is doing with the guitar? Is he playing wrong notes?
+Bruno Lima Lobo his posture is funny
Why do the "facts of the song" matter? It's not the context in which the song was written that speaks to me or makes me feel something, it's the song itself. Everyone is just here to listen to the song.
Soy adicto a darle ''Like'' A los comentarios que favorezcan a Nirvana.
Rest in paradise Kurt.🌻
looking forward to see them live next week im so pumped about it finally im going to hear my idol kurt cobain live yes
Dude are you dying or what??
Lmao wtf hhahahahhaha
I love so much kurt
Kurt era simplesmente acima do nível
My favourite nirvana song
Man we're missing so much in music these days. I hope there's another resurgence like there has been many times before. The arctic monkeys gave me hope until they went all commercial
British-mechanic YES FINALLY I FOUND SOMEONE LIKE NE
British-mechanic me*
well lets offer the soul of justin bieber to maker kurt alive again
Gelle very god idea
British-mechanic don't loose hope..
@Develionsphere I'm 13, and I completely agree with you, in every single way. The only thing that isn't that bad is at least people like you and I can listen to music like this through a peice of plastic and metal.
I was there, aged 21!
Fran Hedges nice man I would die to see em once
And love it this song😄💙
ABOUT A GIRL
I need an easy friend
I do, with an ear to lend
I don't think you fit this shoe
I do, won't you have a clue
I'll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night
Free
I do
I'm standing in your line
I do hope you have the time
I do pick a number too
I do keep a date with you
I'll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night
Free
I do
I need an easy friend
I do whip her in to land
I do think you fit this shoe
I do won't you have a clue
I'll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night
No I can't see you every night
Free
I do
I do
I do
I do
Thank you dude
@@kaysee1479 about Tracy Marander
Best group🥺🌸☮️
fuck, I want him back
Mafalda Bento doesn’t everyone...
I'm so in love with this guy ❤️
Yo lo único que no entiendo es que haya dis likes, si lo sé soy demasiado fan.
Por cierto, adoro el solo de guitarra de Kurt después de decir I do
I miss the old times
Minuto 1 : 27 Kurt Genio. En 2020 sigues siendo el mejor.
best song ever..
Strumming like Mr McCartney lmao
age doesn't matter, mainstream doesn't matter old;new it doesnt matter just listen to music you like
Here's the thing guys. We've kind of been through this phase of shitty music before in the 80's with hair bands. Now they werent as bad as what were making today but still not great. But after a decade they went away because of a huge rock band. My theory is that in the 2020's well have a resurrection of good ol rock and roll.
Jack Winterburn I really hope that happens
Jack Winterburn Well I really hope
There are some good bands now like Royal Blood and Greta Van Fleet, but that’s pretty much all XD
I hope the next decade more bands will appear
I fucking hope so music is dead, on the other hand there is so much great music to listen to from times gone by... Zeppelin,sabbath,the stones,doors,eagles... You get my drift.
I hope it does
HAPPY BIRTHDAY 44 UNFORGETABLE YEARS, RIP!
uma das minhas prediletas..
Best show they had live!
kurt played guitar left handed, and so do i because i am left handed
but writes with his right hand.
David Luna he must be ambidextrous
Owen Me too
He wasn't a left handed writer. He just played guitar left handed.
Cally Quinn i know
I wish my parents took me to this concert when I was a baby just encase I became I big Nirvana fan when I got older. Not that I'd remember it, but just to say I seen them live.
This single gig was better than the whole career of Taylor swift.
sound good 😍😍
Anyone 2024 ?.
Definitely my favorite live version. Right behind it is The Paramount
