All musicians should be like Kurt. Not showing off. Not caring if he plays badly. Just enjoying the music he is making.
"Not showing off" I can agree with. "Enjoying the music" I can also agree with, but "Not caring if he plays badly"? Consert tickets are expensive, you should get what you paid for. Nobody goes to a consert to hear something they could have done better in their own basement. Not that this has anything to do with this performance, but a musician should play well.
They were basically a punk band, so all of those things kinda make sense. The records might have made them sound 'bigger' than they actually were, but when you get right down to it, they were punks.
He didn't kill himself because he became mainstream, he killed himself because he was manic depressive. The fame may have had something to do with it, but if he was only upset about his mainstream popularity he would've quit music, not killed himself. Believe me, the human mind has to go through a lot of terrible things to resort to suicide. Kurt was a tortured soul, and I think it's an insult to his memory to say that he killed himself because he became "mainstream".
Plus, Nirvana was never bad in concert, if they sounded bad it was because of PA problems, not the band's playing.
Kurt was not actually as depressed as the media made out to be. Dave Grohl said that Kurt was actually quite a happy person
Kurt you are frozen in time at age 27..
Its hard to believe next month you would've been 51yrs.old
Your missed more then I could ever find the right words to express....
It's 2018 kurt and your music remains and influences musicians to this very day!
Stacey Balla it's so lonely
@@dynjarren8355 How can he be happy if he's dead?
@@AtomicMushroomz I doubt he is.
@@dynjarren8355 Take your medication, okay bud?
You’re*
Its weird watching this, because, remember, Kurt was 24 at this time. Its strange thinking that all the 24 year olds I know are all just dumb kids who are still naive, but here Kurt plays with such raw emotion and has some dark wisdom that you forget he's pretty much still a kid, or a very young man. To me especially though, since he hasn't been alive in my lifetime, he seems also like a legend or hero because in my world he never really existed and these songs are just kind of things left behind. It might sound a little bit corny, but its why he has such an impact on me because I often forget that this is just a young man playing a guitar and not some kind of myth or fantasy hero. In short- Kurt is cool, go Nirvana.
What a great comment dude! Respect =)
***** thanks man
He will always be remembered young. No one can picture him being old, because he died young. He was a symbol of youth, he took everything kids were feeling and crafted it into musical masterpieces. Something only he could do at the time.
I think you are underestimating many 24 year olds and severely overestimating Kurt. If he hasn't been alive in your lifetime, then you are under the age of 21. I don't think you can judge 24 year olds while you're so young.
If the young can see stupidity
What a live vocal performance. One of the best of all time.
This performance of Smells Like Teen Spirit smells like its on Speed.
White boys funkkk suckssssss !!!!!!!
it probably was!
I agree 😂

How the hell does he play bass so well when the thing is literally by his knees?
7 Year Update: Been practicing for the better part of a decade now. After sewing two straps together, I think I'm getting close.
Tall people tall problems
@@one-pu2rw Shouldnt it be proportional ? it more like he has long arm
@@one-pu2rw he has long ass arms
@@M_Axyar nah the strap is just too punk, he even barely reach his second string.
I tried to do it man, failed
that bass line at the beginning with the drums is so dank.
👌
and also the "WHITE BOY FUNK SUCKS". LMAO
CRaZYMaN 6447 i think Krist hate RHCP
Didn't Flea play a trumpet solo over Smells like Teen Spirit on another show? I think they were buddies.
@@Johnnythefirst he did and he was absolutely terrible haha
which is funny because Nirvana opened for chili peppers on tour. SF cow palace new years 1991 RHCP(headliner), Nirvana, Pearl Jam
Tf is white boy funk
This in my opinion is the best concert, because the fact that there wasn't any fails in all the songs they performed, they got all the songs, and the notes perfectly with no stutters, or Kurt being high. Not saying that they suck on all the other concerts, just saying that they were perfect in this one.
yeah and it sounds a lot better when its not in Em tuning, my opinion though. this is the only concert i believe they tuned up to F which sounds a lot cooler than tuning down
***** I think the reason they started tuning to Em instead of F is because it got harder and harder for Kurt to hit those really high notes.
+Jace Viets Drumming Well, nobody's ever perfect, and imperfections can add a nice touch of realism once in a while.
elvicare35 I never have said they need to be perfect.No onr can. But in my opinion, in this concert they are.
It's an awesome show!!!!!
my heart hurts watching this.. maaan.. I wish I could see them live at least once...
+Flor Sacone Nirvana can exist without Kurt, you fool. They are still a band. They are still together, without Kurt.
Uummm you fool, they're not. Floppy Rodrigo
You fucking neophyte. They are together. They might not be touring right now, or recording new material, it's just that Kurt is dead. Bands sometimes don't record or go on tour for up to 20 years without breaking up. Remember the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction a couple of years ago? Of course you don't, because you're probably a 13 year old poser.
1 - No, I'm not a poser.
2 - I was born in the 90's.
3 - The band broke up when Kurt died and Dave formed another one called "Foo fighters".
4 - You must feel so brave insulting people behind a screen...grow up. Floppy Rodrigo
Just because a band goes decades without a new album or tour, that doesn't mean they've broken up. Age of Electric got back together after 17 years of hiatus.
They sounded great live.... RIP ROCK MUSIC it will never be the same as the 90-2000s era.
David has to be one of the greatest drummers!!! U feel it in your soul....
Fun Fact: Kurt hated this song so much after playing it so much that they usually played it this fast or faster just to get it over with.
Even tho this is 1991 the same year that it came out.
uh yeh. if memory serves from back then they played it normal for the first couple shows then started playing it faster just to get it done with for the fans
Well this goes for alot of songs, He didn't really hate it but he hated how people knew it as the only nirvana song.
+hobbitpsi actually you do know the audio if this is sped up because they don't want a copyright strike Lol
This video isn't sped up though. if it was the tunings of the drums all the way to the bass and guitar would be way higher. This is honestly how they played this song most times live.
One of the best concerts ever. I just wish I was born earlier. Always wished i could've seen them live
I bet if you asked 10 Million Grunge Rock fans about this Show about half a Million of them would tell you they were at this show.
Changed everything ! Thanks for posting!
Best live performance of smells like teen spirit I've seen on UA-cam 🔥🔥
Just imagine if they could rocking on this pandemic 2020..
R. I. P my man, Kurt
Dave Grohl is a monster
Indeed
Whay?
I sincerely believe that he’s the greatest drummer in the history of rock music. Not because of his technical ability, but because he has a real knack for being able to not only compliment the feeling of a song, but enhance it through his playing.
He's really having fun!
@@sadboievan5202 exactly
I'm from the Philippines ,,these maybe pound for pound ,,the best band in the 90s,,
Love you curt
this is the best live version of smells like teen spirit
Raw rock ... The best
Krist's bass solo beginning at 0:23 is from Archie Bell & The Drells' ''Tighten up''.
thx
My goodness, this sounds amazing ❤❤ love live performances
I remember watching this in the 9th grade when vh1 did a 20th anniversary premiere of this concert in HD great night for me as a kid having just really getting into nirvana
One of the best record of "teen spirit" i ever seen!...Happy birthday Kurt 20/02/1967
Lembranças ótimas.
Tempos bons...
Loucuras que deixaram saudades.
Baseado na saudade kkkk
When they played this gig Kurt wasn't fed up of playing Teen Spirit seeing as the album was only out for a few months and didn't initially get much attention.
Raw rock ... The best !!!
Someone would have said: “well he doesn’t know how to sing, he goes against all vocal standards” well that’s the POINT, cause he knows the rules and he chooses to go against them. That’s why he is and will always be one & only in the music industry. Ily Kurt
Nirvana was never ever been in perfect sound tuning on every live perform.. but i love grunge \m/,
Raw rock ... The best
2021 and their drummer was straight up FIRE 🔥🔥🔥💣
“White boy funk sucks!”
Red Hot Chili Peppers: 😐
"sad Flea noises"
Flea:playing smells like teen spirit at their concert with trumpet 😂
Hey everyone has their own opinion, lmao doesn’t mean it’s all necessarily true rhcp is a dope band
In fairness I think it’s a joke you could classify smells like teen spirit as white boy funk
@@Josh-rr7ze how
Did u ever realize,evertime you hear this song..your head,your hands, your feet,literally your whole body start to move by it self??
Pretty much all the comments on this video
"Did you know that Kurt hated this song?"
listened to this about 25 times today...literally never gets old
Miss u kurdt.. u really meant so much man to so many. He was the 1st rock star i cud relate 2. But the day i found out about nirvana the day after they found him.. i walked into a newsagents an there he was on every front page.. it was the weirdest thing. his music will live forever.. ✌
"White boy funk sucks"
**is opening act for RHCP**
AlcoholicBeachedWhale
They played with Bikini Kill and Mudhoney on this night, not RHCP. That was later. And I’m not sure whether they opened or not.
И никакого черного пиара, заказных статей, ложной популярности, скандалов, продюсерских ухищрений - только гитара, чувства и драйв. Одним словом живая музыка.
Полностью Согласен.
да брат только наркота бухло телки без конца а так все чисто збс
:D
Stepan Bolshoi
и?!! это противоречит понятию "ЖИВОЙ"???
Тут не поспоришь.
Потрясающе! Мурашки по коже! Энергии шквал! И главное, что все в живую! Не то, что сейчас рок и поп эстрада почти вся из фанеры. В живую кишка тонка что-то сделать.
Best live version. Very Powerful and the bass is litteraly dancing.
Nirvana still on my list music wht a great song! Still listening here 2020 December
Esto es una joya que acabo de descubrir!!! 🤘🏽
Not a cell phone to be seen in the audience... Fuck I really miss those days...
1991.
Pre - 2002

Almost 5am been reliving my youth. Gonna be a long day tomorrow ugh! Stay young ppl!
havent seen anyone comment here in months lol. i love how you can hear kirsts' bass loud and clear, it sounds so fucking good. deep and mellow
Sin lugar a ninguna duda, este temazo de Nirvana es claramente el himno del grunge.
Tempo bom nunca volta.
Curto demais!✌
smells like the best performance of this masterpiece
Kurt is immortal/ his voice and his music will always be in our heads
Raw rock ... The best
Absolutely Correct 💯%
que buena epoca yo tenia 12 años en el año 1994 y esta canción me volaba la cabeza en ese año me recuerda cuando ese año terminaba la primaria
Nirvana, su musica siempre sera inmortal para mis oídos.
Kurt. A sensitive kid that cared too much. Overflowing with passion and compassion. And to dull the pain, he fed himself heavy doses of apathy. In trying to fight his nature, he became a walking contradiction in many ways. When you fill your head with enough contradiction, the only thoughts that make sense are the persistent, simple, logical statements. Creative artist aside, he should not be considered a role model, but rather a living reminder of what happens when you emotionally, mentally, and physically choose the path of least resistance. “He became a star and influenced millions!” yeah and he couldn’t even enjoy it; for an empath to take in the joys of stardom, performance art, fatherhood, etc, they must also take in the sorrow, the shame, the rage. He chose apathy, and clung onto it for life, and then it killed him. Not giving af is a tool, not a lifestyle. Kinda like being an ahole, sometimes you gotta be an ahole, but you don’t wanna make a lifestyle out of it. Tools have a purpose, and when you’re done with it, you put it away. Enjoy the tunes kids.
uno de los mejores conciertos de los 90 sin duda
I wonder if Kurt ever looked at the audience during this song or hides is eyes behind his hair.
Hides. He was incredibly shy.
Nirvana forever...
Indonesia hadir dan menonton. Nirvana termasuk salah satu grup band yang kusukai.
Dave was at another level. Sooo powerful.
Raw rock ... The best !!!
Por los siglos de los siglos Nirvana ❤️
Que sonzeira. Pqp!!!!!
man i love it
30 years ago , Nirvana still legend
Талант - в 24 года!!!
Anvar Nizamov русский!
They play it so fast like they just want it to be done with the song lol
Yeah and you could tell
Sadie Young whoever ripped this shit off dvd, fucked up, and its sped up a bit. notice the pitch is higher than usual? but yeah that and they probably wanted to finish the song early
ScreamorSugarMusic They do that because otherwise the distributor's software could detect that this is their video (and it would be taken down)
Isaac Opedal yeah you're totally rite. I was channeling my anger towards the Paramount bluray disc. I bought that shit and the sound didn't completely align with the video. and i was about the return it but i googled it and apparently they fucked up all the bluray ones. hopefully they fixed it by now
*****
Nah, they didn't hate the song in and of itself, they hated how popular it became.
probablemente la mejor canción de la década de los 90s
Raw rock ... The best
This song becomes Legend of all time
I love that how they start out with a lame song then go for smells like teen spirit to get the crowd pump up. I’m going to do that with my band in the talent show.
By that time, they came back to Seattle after Nevermind successfully sold
Божественно!
Happy birthday kurt 52 today miss you so much baby xxxxx
Hello.....your profile was attracted to my eyes I will like to get to know you! What do you think

Its so weird seeing people just watching and having fun and not on cell phones
Smells like teen spirit Best live perform
Kurt was a very interesting thing to watch live
Raw rock ... The best
this live guitar solo is better than they live at Reading
live at reading is just noise
Well I can say it was when I first started playing, after about 6 or 7 months it gets much much easier.
Raw rock ... The best
Nirvana,acdc,metallica,bon jovi and aerosmith are my inspiration to my own band ,the pheonix crew.
Still impresive after many years of listening :)

Iiillloollkkkiooollpl!!m!!!!??..?
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I may be wrong but I think the whole video's is sped up, it explains very squeaky voice of Kurt in the chorus, and the fact that song is played half step higher than the original.
David Gogi it's not. they were tuned higher than most concerts here.
Shahid Ullah wrong
There’s another vid but it’s at the original key
Because of copyright
David Gogi agreed..but it's still rocks!
i wish i was born in the 80s-90s era. i would have rocked my ass off. everything seemed nicer back then.
