- Because today is Kurt Cobain's Birthday, I made a "tribute" video to him. It's Where Did You Sleep Last Night, this song is a really old folk song apparently that Nirvana covered from Leadbelly, who covered that from who knows. It's a great song, it's probably my favorite Nirvana song. R.I.P Kurt and Happy Birthday!

I get chills when Kurt starts yelling the lyrics.
I get chilli whenever Kurt starts yelling the lyrics. yum!
This is closer to country music than anything you'll hear on the radio.
I get chills when I hear the lyrics to another song...."...and I swear that I don't have a gun"
I start yelling when Kurt starts yelling the lyrics
Hey, make sure to find the recording (video) from a concert in like 92? At Castaic Lake, CA. It's off of the second Outcesticide cd (blue moon records) cd name is the needle & the damage done. Another cover that will blow ur mind is off the same cd is labeled "The Man Who Sold the World" (electric version). I was born in Aberdeen and grew up in Montesano and was listening to their unreleased tracks and some "bootleg" concert recording's in the early 90's. There is some definite next-level shit that they never released and most people didn't even know about. The Outcesticide series 1-4 were $40 each back then, but worth every cent!! They are probably still available and will show you the true and full musical genius of Kurt. R.I.P.
Is anyone else sad that you'll never get to go one of his concerts? 😭
Kind of, but he was in excruciating pain all the time.. I'm kinda glad he got away from it.. Idk :(
@@darlingxion3944 I agree.
Yes.
I am pissed he died when I wad like 5 smh its so depressing how no one could check on kurt mentally
Rip kurt
yeah
This is breaking my heart. My good friend loved Nirvana and Kurt so much that he moved from Florida to Seattle when he was homeless just so he could visit Kurts bench. A few months after he got to Seattle, he was murdered. I miss my friend so much. He loved this song. He was a guitar (or like he would say a "gee-tar") player. I think it made him happy though to be in Kurts city.
That's sad, rip dude
That sucks. I'm sorry.
Omg, im so sorry
@@smilinbandit4191 dude what the hell is wrong with you?!
:(
Ok I know no one is gonna read this but I need to get my emotion out
my dad used to listen to this and I still know the melody from my youth, i really miss you dad, I hope the after life is good
I read I care thats a pretty cool father NMW.
This is a song of my youth.... aswell as my dads... ill shiver for u in the most delightful of way
LIFE IS GOOD
So sorry for your loss ❤️
its even better😎
I get chills when Kurt starts yelling the lyrics.
this song has so many meanings or im really this high idk
We miss you Kurt.. it was a dark night when you passed away :'(
Me to now
Got murdered* 😐
@@alastair7095 what?
@@fiorellohataj7366 “passed away”, to me, implies he got sick or something. I believe it was a murder
@@alastair7095 he wasn't murdered, he took his own life
It's sad that some us will never see him in person
I know right I wish more musicians were as tallented and as amazing as he was, rip Kurt we love and miss you and know that you are in a much better place now.
lmao
Ikr, I'm 15 and i've loved nirvana since I was 5 thanks to my dad. I remember wanting to meet Kurt so bad, and finally when I was 8 my dad had to break the news to me that he was dead. I was so upset.
none of us will.
Me too
I was born 8 months after Kurt’s passing, but grew up listening to Nirvana. And only now that I’m his age (27) am I really deeply feeling every song
I was Born in 2000s and just got into his music in February. Best decision I’ve made
The same bruh till now Kurt cobain still number one for me
You’re corny as fuck
I was 7 years old when he died and I still remember the MTV tribute. It was very strange and somber. It's hard to quantify moments in our youth until many years later, so all I can say is that the music and art lives on. Even though we live in an unsettled time, I'm grateful for the artists who came before me.
It's great to hear that someone as young as you are has such an appreciation for true talent.
As someone who knows too well what he was going threw with drugs and an extremely toxic relationship this song hits especially hard for people like us and is why he went 150% on this and You Know You're Right. The latter especially, he was a genius with a headache some would say. Im glad he doesnt have to feel the pain of this shitty world anymore. Rip brother.
Poor Kurt! We miss you Kurt , you deserved so much better than what you’ve been thru. See ya on the other side my friend
none can repalce kurts rusty dry throat voice...
That's what made him sound amazing.
I can, and have, and will again
Pretty sure it's not rusty dry throat, but just vocal fry. Surprisingly easy once you figure it out. He really isn't trying that hard to get that sound at this point, and it's nothing to do with his throat and how damaged it may or may not be.
It was the heroin
dont get me wrong but im sure if you were doin heroin you could do it too.
We miss you Kurt.. it was a dark night when you passed away :'(
Miss u Kurt, ur a legend.
Lv u cobain
Right here bro I’m not dead
@@yoursleepparalysisdemon1828 😭😭😭😭😭
Natasha Bellasario :(
I can feel the pain and hatred from the song, it almost makes you feel like you're in his place atm when you listen to the song
For those who don't know this is a take on "In The Pines", a song that dates back to at least 1870's Appalachia and probably back to centuries old England, like how Knoxville Girl goes back to 1650 England and a song called The Bloody Miller
Very surprising information, not because it is shocking or anything, but because you are the first person mentioned this, nice mate.
Isn't this a song by blues legend Lead Belly? Didn't really know it dated even back.
@@yannimohamed2349 he covered the song in 1944. Its possible heard it in prison back in 1919
@@abd_cheese7353 great to know, thanks! :)
I did not know this going to look it up .
Such an amazing voice. For anyone that can't tell or didn't know, he sings with his throat, which basically destroys your vocal cords over time. And he trained his voice to sing that way. Sorry but that's badass.
+DickotheClown you have to sing from stomach cauze the voice is better and isnt so dangerous.... but he find his way....i mean you must bleed for rock sound.....and stomach dont help anymore
+Josh Dumas you really do have to
No matter what physical organ he sang from, you have to flat out sing with your soul to sing like that. Brings out tears everytime.
DickotheClown Surely unmatched his voice is so awesome!🗻⛅🐬
That is how you are supposed to sing with the throat and diaphragm.NOT through the nose, as many do.
I love finding old songs I've never heard before. Makes me wonder what other good shit I'm missing out on!
There's a world full of great old songs
Robinho's Left Foot recommend me some?

let me know i grew up on this
i got more not just from kurt but from things you cant even imaine
Mhm! I do too sometimes, luckily for me I grew up with this thanks to my parents
I was diagnosed bipolar and a lot of his lyrics start to make sense to me as I gain self consciousness. I love you Kurt.
You are blessed
When he's screaming, it brings tears to my eyes. It's so full of pain and emotion.
Yessss!!!
Na actually though I can almost imitate it and I've been through it all I can't imagine the type of pain he lets out here
I wAs bOrN in ThE wRonG GenERatiON
2000's suck when i see the 90's
Lol same
Y'all, I think they were being sarcastic. lmao
Same
Filthy frank?
I'm here because the "haunted" show on Netflix used this song for a creepy country ghost, and they said "There is some dark evil energy tied to that song" lmao
Sameee
YESS ME TOOO 😭 i honestly really liked it which is why i’m here :>
Exactly
That song had dark energy, all the dark energy people, “IN THE PINES, IN THE PINES” 😂
Lol same
I tried hitting the "I shivvvveeerrr" when he screamed it and I lost my voice for a week😒
Us mere mortals can't compare to the masters
It takes years of practice and training. Seek courses
you're aids then
@@akatakid8389 No sense comment
Lmao
My favorite Nirvana song of all times.
@@patrickdineen9847 ledbetter? It's leadbelly.
@Gruesume Wolf Gaming Hey google Nirvana Castaic Lake. You will find a recording of Kurt (solo) Where Did You Sleep Last Night and at the beginning of song he says "this is a song written by (what sounds like) Hubby Leadbettter he was a slave from the south". The recording can also be found on the 2nd Outcesticide cd named "The Needle and the Damage Done" I've always been good at figuring out his lyrics, but I could be wrong!!
@@gruesomewolfgaming4735 yeah your right about the name being Leadbelly. Before he starts the last song solo (off Unplugged) you can clearly hear him say Leadbelly. The reason I thought it was Ledbetter was from the recording at a concert in Castaic Lake, CA that can be found on the Outcesticide cd #2 "The Needle & The Damage Done" Or just google Nirvana Castaic Lake concert "Where did you sleep last night". It has to be my favorite version (rendition) of the song and if you listen to him giving credit to Leadbelly before he starts you'll know why I thought it was Ledbetter.
@@patrickdineen9847 yeah, no problem
Leadbelly also wrote Black Betty
I'm having a major Nirvana nostalgia moment rn & this song will forever be my favorite of their whole body of work & of the Unplugged session. The melancholy then the fury in Kurt's voice ♡
How could you dislike a masterpiece?
The stare and breath Cobain takes before the final line (breath... THE WHOLE... NIGHT THROOOOOGH!) is incredible. Not to mention the best "screeching" voice of all time on the final verse as well
got any weed i can buy from you dude lol XD
Love that breathe he takes at the end before singing "the whole night through" his eyes are shot...it was from the heart and raw..
I have had the honor to meet kurt in 1989 around christmas. We were in Detroit, backstage at a venue and we got so bloody drunk on gentleman jack cause it had just come out at the time. But i remember one thing that kurt told me. He said," always end your worries before they get worse". And now i think i know what that means
Not sure what good will come of it but ok, Ill listen cause it might have come from Kurt, If this does me some good then Ill know your story is real, Ill leave another comment in a fue months to let you know,
@@erickinney7482 straight from the man himself
Blame The Whales ! Holy fuck. Gave me shivers just reading that.
❤️
You are incredible, truly amazing man, you deserved an award for all you have provided humanity with.
Kurt's voice is so beautiful. I love this song.
HAIL THE GODS... ALU ULA...
The original song was recorded by Leadbelly, which is why Kurt mentioned being offered to buy Leadbelly’s guitar before the song begins. But Kurt poured his heart and soul into this live performance, and made it his own. The absolute perfect ending to a perfect Unplugged concert!!
Shit with what he was going through with heroin the evilist chemical mistress ever grown and Cortney Love the cruelest female mistress ever born this song encapsulates his personal struggles to a fucking T. I have personally dealt with both intimately I feel it pouring from his song. I have gotten rid of one of those problems anyway and working on the other.
Apparently the song is even older than that, all the back to 1870s Appalachia, and Leadbelly heard it in prison and made a cover of it
this song in particular always makes me so sad, but i come back to it anyway .i can't help it.
Helen Victor topa musica mais
Helen Rosinsky yea his voice the guitar you just can't feel a little sad
As do I....
Helen Rosinsky It was the last song that he sung. He killed himself three days later.
Is it truely the last song he sang?
Love the breath before the last lyric.
Boy.. you said it he was really feeling this song
I always thought he wrote this song. How crazy that it came from a man born 140 years ago, blues singer Leadbelly
ive been listening to this on loop for about 2 hours
ditto!
Get a life dude
Sounds about right.
+Nashuha Tasbir yeah cause when you "have a life " u cant have 2h for listening a song you love
orange bud imo 2 hour is too long man
I still can’t believe this is a live recording. Amazing performance
2019 still freaking awesome
Letsgettoit And always will be
so about 2020...
2020
We’ll wait till next year.....
What about now
Kurt is gone but never forgotten!!!!!
who?
Michael Powers loooool 😝 FUCK U dude
Never thought I'd outlive this man, but here we are.
RIP Kurt. So many emotions. So beautifully expressed. Unique. Forever Grateful for the music
I was 12. My friend came to me shaking. He said, what Kurt Has done. I looked at my childhood friend, understanding the era is gone forever...
I am so Sad that i never could meet kurt because im 14 right now but i Will always love rock to the Day i die.
I never got to meet Kurt because I’m 17 and I was born in 2002, years after his death and I’m still sad about it
I want to meet him but I'm 11 and he died right before me

2024 and still extremely missed💔 i own that unplugged dvd and still watch it from time to time🥰 #Kurt
Breaks my heart. He was in a lot of pain. Good guy. Just like Tupac.
Been a fan since 2001. Nirvana has got me through some of the darkest moments in my life. Nirvana saved me literally.
this song has so many meanings or im really this high idk
This song is about slavery lol
Both
Yes, and same.
don johnson what’s funny about that ?
@@cgx6751 Thanks for asking that ? I can tell alot about you from you questioning that remark.
Rock on!
Blackout in Houston, the house is cold because the nothing worked.
43 hours without a sound but the neighbors generator. My phone wasnt working so i sang the first song that cane to mind-
"my girl, my girl, don't lie to me..."
*tears* stuck in thoughts.
"...im going where the cold wind blows"
I felt alone, but Kurt had me. ♡
My God I just went a little crazy at the gym…hearing Kurt’s magnificent, magical, pure emotion vocals set something primal off in my brain and for a moment I felt HIS psyche 🤩 he is a RARE gem of an artist, I haven’t seen anything come close since in his genre
Listening to this in December 2018, good music
same
Yep
Me too
Same man
Me too.
30 years today😢we love u kurt forever
I wasn't born until 1996. 2 years after Kurt's passing. I was flipping through my brothers radio one day and stumbled upon this song and I immediately became a fan at the age of 7 years old. I have the poster of the Rolling Stones magazine cover when he passed. I'll be 26 in October and I will forever play Nirvana until my passing. RIP Mr. Cobain
click if Nirvana was part of your child hood and still is a part of you
I was born in 95' so I was on the planet when this man graced the world with his genius. He was still a part of my childhood and will always be a part of me.
Always. There was only one Kurt...
I am 11, so it still is and I'm proud that it is. If it counts that is
im born in 01 but was still a big part of my childhood... cool parents haha
I am 33 year's old. I always have and always will be a Nirvana fan. For ever and always tell the day they put me in the pines where the sun don't shine.
His body was found dead , but his voice never was found (Kurt ) !!!!
i know whu did liry take Drugs than killed hinself!!!!!
what
Shut up
Veronica, you’re drunk, go home
His body was found dead, but what Veronica tryna say was never found.
This song brings me to my knees every time I hear it. Kurt has the most beautiful voice that always heals me from everything. Thank you Kurdt for the great gift you left to the world. I love you
Brings you to your knees? You like giving blowjob's to this song?
I respect that you honor Kurt Cobain.
I was born 13 years after Kurt's death.. i grew up listening to Nirvana.. now im 16 and really feeling all his songs❤
I wouldnt say think that way. Because he was never intending to be a role model for teens more or less a representation of teen angst. Not a thing to "try" to strive for.
one of my friends went to a nirvana concert this was his favorite song of it even if it was a cover whatever he committed suicide 2 months ago I miss him.i cry every night
I’m really sorry to hear that, are you ok?
I’m so sorru
its okay babe hes in a better place.
😭😭😭
Nirvana got me through bus journeys with my earphones whilst travelling to take my forklift course. Thank you Kurt, respect.
Best band that ever graced this shitty planet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nirvana will live as long as people exist. This band is timeless. I miss You Kurt. I love You man.
Will Wilder right cx
Will Wilder I strongly agree
Pink floyd are better tho
Will Wilder So true. Nirvana will live forever !!!
disagree* :)))))))
Man this song and Teen Spirit got me!!! It saddens me that he died so young man!!!😢😢..I guess he served his purpose through his songs when he became a man...when I went through my 2nd breakup...Nirvana's what I was listening to!!!💪💪
Nice to meet you brotha!!💪
Was lucky to meet kurt at reading, I've been all over the world and I've worked security on gigs (ex-royal marines commando) a very special guy, sincere and so very down to earth, when I heard about his death I had tears on my eyes, I still have a sadness in my heart.
Every day I play Nirvana. I'm 40 now and it changed my life. Thanks Kurt, was sad to see you go. RIP
I'm sorry but he was totally singing this about Courtney. He got emotional as hell.
Just picked up a guitar for the first time today. I know I’ll never be able to do this song the justice Cobain gave it, but if I can do this in my lifetime, I’ll die a happy man.
2024 still here love this dude legend 😢
Love this song forever kurt donald cobain♥

my dad would play nirvana in the car when i was about 8 and this brought back memories
How does someone bring so much emotion in their voice😭
This has been my fav nirvana song for a long time and it makes
Me happy so many people have discovered it the past couple years
Fire asf right now 2024!!!
Kurt had the best raspy heroin voices ever! The chills I get when he starts screaming 🔥 rip to a legend
I expect he could have done it
without the heroin. Probably wouldn't have shot himself either.
@@SilverLine269 we all know Kurt didn't shoot himself

this cover is honestly so well made
Kurt was one of the greatest
Me and my dad used to listen to this all the time before he died in a swimming accident):
wish I could of gotten the chance to be alive while he was alive, he was so passionate when it came to music I truly do wish he was here with us today
spicysuicide I feel the same.
I literally cry every time I hear this song,,,the pain and raw emotion in his voice get me every time
This is one of the best songs I’ve experienced. Perfect. Period!
How have I listened to Nirvana since 1994 and never heard this? What the actual? Its incredible, its going on my campfire playlist for sure
His voice still gives me chills, especially at that last part of the song.
That "shiver" sent shivers down my spine. So good.
This is perfection. Man I miss Kurt. 💔
I love this cover so much. Kurts voice goes so well with the haunting lyrics.
WHO STILL LOVES IT IN 2019?❤️❤️

Me Nirvana is timeless it’s a retro band like the record player it’s come before in popularity and it’s always cool. So to speak. But I grew up with his music thanks to my mom.

Im going where the cold wind blows

almost had a heart atack when i saw his ^^
Where did you? sleep last night ?sounding a little too defensive I shiver when he sings the last line
@@normazimmerman5333lmao my wife felt that breeze ⚰⚰⚰
Fun historical fact about this song (not necessarily this specific version, but just the song in general): did you know that "In the Pines" is actually a traditional American folk song dating back to at least the 1870s? It originated in the Appalachian region, though as with most folk songs, the song's original author is unknown.
God I miss this man so very very much....his voice still gives me chills every time I listen to him this is one of those favorites he did of mine and omg the goosebumps are soooooo real
Get cheated on enough and this song hits hard 💔
kurt is one of the best singer's on this planet this man is really talented there's no doubt about it!
it's better to burn out then fade away - Kurt fuckin Cobain
The awkward moment when it was actually Neil fucking Young that came up with that...
2019 and still giving me chills.. " Where the sun ever shine" in the pines in the pines.....
Rest in peace kurt 🙏
Thanks for the upload
Steve.
This song will always remind me of the boy I loved in high school. It was Decemeber 2016. Our class just had a Christmas party and we were tidying up the room when the boy I had been in love with for more than 5 years at that that point played this song on UA-cam. I never told him I loved him. Although, I think he knew because I told some of my classmates and they must have told him. I am at a uni now and I have moved on but I still dream of him sometimes. I hate how cliché this sounds. It sucks because I loved him so much. To this day I wonder if he ever felt the same. Probably not.
I don't listen to much Nirvana but this song has a special place in my heart because my dad used to play it on his guitar and sing for me and my sister before he moved out
This hurts I can feel his pain so much poor Kurt
Still here...still love the song...my dad introduced it to me years ago, and I'm still in love with the band 🖤💚🖤
Great song sung by a great musician! He was a special human being that lived a short life... Your music lives on in my heart, rip Kurt Cobain...
That shivvvvveeeeeeeeeaahhhhhhh is epic man always is
I heard it in haunted
YES, best episode…
This is actually an old bluegrass song!!!!
His voice is just...perfect for the lyrics.
When he started screaming the lyrics [ex 3:47] it sent literal chills down my spine bro
Agree.
Literally my new favorite song
