    That is hands down the most beautiful cover I’ve ever heard. But at the same time it’s kind of haunting, seeing a song that came from a place of darkness and depression from a young mans life being sung by a man who has lived a full life and has more days behind him than in front of him gives a whole new light and meaning to the song. It’s like with original version it’s Kurt fighting to stay above water but there’s something blocking him from escaping and embracing happiness but with your version it’s like “yeah I’ve lived my life and I accept fate”, it’s like your admitting your life story and greeting death as it creeps closer. It’s like Johnny Cash’s version of hurt by nine inch nails, that’s his admission and embrace of his life. But I don’t know I’m probably over thinking it.

    • @patricesage331

      @Max Wilson I simply had to let you know I don't think you were overthinking it At All. My first or maybe second comment ever on 1 of Frank's videos was very similar to yours.. He has a way of evoking 'reminiscing 'days gone by' type feelings that are almost peaceful, in lyrics that are often just a sad song until Frank sings it. Very much the same as Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt evoked conflicting feelings in me & many others. Haunting but totally not sad & depressing & I don't get it & have only had it happen with 1 other artist on 1 specific song & performance (outside of Johnny Cash) & Frank does it over & over & over & its a special kind of magic that you don't often see. Cash had it & Frank does too. You did not just overthink it. It's what Frank does 💜

      @@thadpeud3057 some songs are nonsensical but there are some songs that have meaning and are actually about things like something in the way was inspired by this bridge that Kurt used to hangout under and sometimes sleep under in Aberdeen and how he was fortunate that when he was sleeping there the tide didn’t rise and drown him. As well as songs like rape me which is a very blunt stance against rape and about a girl which is about his ex girlfriend who broke up with him

I have listened to Neil at work for so many years keeping me company while I clean alone, that he is like a good friend who is there to sympathize.

Makes sense, thanks for giving me a new viewpoint to see it from.. still kinda makes my brain hurt tho lol. Uplifting Melancholy hahaha. Actually the Leonard Cohen hallelujah is the perfect example of thst cuz I wager many who enthusiastically sing along & say they love that song would not say or act the same if you handed them the lyrics on an untitled sheet of paper.. its easy to not notice its not a fun song but it feels like camraderie.. music is magical & with the right voice music can be pure magic 👍

      It’s been stuck in my head all day, but more than that it’s been stuck in my heart. It’s the most achingly thing I’ve ever heard.

    what i love about “something in the way” is that it was just a demo. Kurt Cobain had the song idea and was just playing the acoustic guitar and the engineer put a microphone up to him and recorded him. all of the other elements such as drums and cello were added in post. Thank you Frank!

    • @MoonAlongMyHead

      It was like a demo, but I don't think one can improv such great stuff (the song was already written and they'd tried to record it a number of times). In the end, it worked out really great for the track. Butch Vig was the man for the job, for sure!

    Holy ssssomethin. The joyful sounding guitar, with the somber singing and words, its both unsettling AND calming

    Hi, Frank!
    I don't think you need to be worried about offending people-none of your jokes are offensive! People my age are just more concerned about not punching down and making folks who are already having a tough time the punchline of a joke.
    Beautiful cover, by the way. This is my favorite Nirvana song, and I love how you've totally reinvented it.

      Nah...we're all people. Being equal includes that. It would be unfair to the masses to exclude anybody in a JOKE.

    Hi Frank, this is the second cover of yours I have seen after Nutshell, and it is great to hear a new soulful spin on the Northwest songs that we grew up with. I like how you tied an honest sad real story into this song. I heard Bob Dylan's "Only a hobo, but another is gone" at work a few days ago and it made me feel deeply for all of our fellow human family who are homeless... Also my friend in Switzerland just covered this song a couple of days ago, and it was the first time I heard the lyrics right: "the tarp has sprung a leak"... I always thought it was "top" 🎩 Anyway, thank you for your soulful performance good sir
