Had to attempt this one as it was a request , i'm not that happy with it but it's the best i could do i guess,. had to edit the video because i did go wrong!!
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.
@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 💜
I agree with you and all but Kurt's lyrics were just gibberish, he's stated in multiple interviews his lyrics really never had meaning behind them. But I get what you mean by the tone, that's something you live for with this type of music
@@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
@@patricesage331 Neil Young has made me feel the same way you are describing in a way. He sings so many sad songs but with so much depth of feeling and empathy that I feel comforted hearing his soulfulness... 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. Frank's soulful heart shows through kind of in the same way, very sad but comforting at the same time. You can tell he has lived a full life and he really cares. While Kurt was less experienced but with his own depth of feeling...💙🌎🌌🎶
@@charlesbogle6544 wow you're right. Lol. Not to the same degree or regularity as this gentleman seems to do without trying but you got me reflecting on times in the past where the feeling /mood I & others got were rather contrary from the lyrics lol. So it's gotta be the voice.. the soulfulness in the voice makes us feel connected, understood, comforted?? 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 👍
I love that dry British humor, it cheers me up immensely... Happy birthday, Frank! You have a legion of fans who wholeheartedly wish you the very best for years and years to come!!!
4:04 to skip all the talk. Im making this stamp for myself because I've heard all the talk too many times, I'm here for the song for the millionth time😁👍Great stuff!
I don't have any reason to cry. I'm strong, independent, living my life, playing my guitar, worling everything out... yet still, I have shed my tears along this beautiful performance... And must say, that's what I needed. Just letting the emotions do its way! ❤
Fantastic isn't it? As good as that is it isn't as good as a clear head, a clear conscience, and clear path to tomorrow and beyond. It's another world looking back and na, I wouldn't want to see you like that again. Great minds think alike, Franks picking that is. : - )
Step one is done, stay tough, a good life awaits. One day you can look back and see how empty and soul crushing booze can be. I am sober 4 years now, so happy i stopped that poison. My skin is better, no liver problems and im gaining muscle.
Oh, I loved the ‘small lawn’ joke! We MUST, in tough times, be able to find humor in things! It’s what gives us STRENGTH, after all, being able to find the laughter amidst the sorrow, the grin against the pain…
If you want to tell jokes, tell them, don't care about other people's opinion. I'm sure you're happy and you shouldn't be afraid to express yourself. By the way, I admire you a lot. You are an inspiration to many. His attitude was very beautiful with people who needed help.
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!
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! ruclips.net/video/APHX-9ZQ7x0/видео.html
I have alot of fate in improv. But the story your telling is a bit scrampled. The song was already written (or improvised earlier at home as you will) but in the studio they couldn't make it work. So they send everybody out of the studio so Kurt could whisper in the mic.
Nirvana fan here! Saw them live on February of 1994, less than two months before Kurt Cobain's passing. It was a birthday gift from my father for my 14 years. It'll be 30 years ago in 2024. And three years since I lost my Dad. I miss both of them so much. Love your cover Frank, I'm glad to have discovered your channel (it was yesterday with your SOAD Lonely Day cover). Love your style, as a musician, and as a human being as well. You gained one more subscriber. Kudos to your daughter for the sunglasses!
Frank, I swear, If hummanity reaches to the point in which technology is capable of conserving a person entirely to earth's lifetime, you need to be in the top choices!!! We, as a whole, thank you for such a talent and pure heart.
I have hated every single Nirvana cover I have heard - until this one. This was great man. Your voice has a kind of deep pain to it that compliments it very well. Well done Lad.
I'm a dissociative multiple, victim of mkultra. I sit in a house I cannot escape from abuse watching my life go down the drain. You are helping me survive and heal from trauma and survive this abusive life. Thank you so much Frank. Kurt would definitely be proud. I'm grateful and you show me humanity is here, I just need to look closer to see the people who have it. I'd do anything for you in repayment for this gift.
@@FrankWatkinson - Well, I get what you're saying sir and I thank you for the response. I only wish to compliment you. No disrespect to your integrity intended. You're truly a rarity.
I don't usually, if ever, comment on any video, but to be quite honest I felt the need to do it after hearing your cover. To me, this song as always had a lot of meaning, but your take on it actually elevated it to another emotional level for me. It is great, thank you for this! Its actually making my rough week a little less rough and making my eyes feel a lot less heavy. Happy belated birthday Frank :)
sir i watch ur videos when im sad and i just want u to know you’re doing numbers for a lot of people. idk where i’d be without ur content, ur videos cheer me up so much. thank you
This guy is to Nirvana what Johnny Cash was to Nine Inch Nails with his cover of Hurt. The same lyrics, given different meanings due to the context of the singer's lives and the style it's performed in. Really amazing cover
Personally I think this cover has a little variation to Kurt's. It still has that somber feeling but this one gives it hope, Kurt feels like it is hopeless or hope will come from hardships. Both are amazing but I love Kurt's better
Just wait until you hear Frank’s cover of Creep (Radiohead). He’s set the new standard by which all other covers of Creep will be judged henceforth. 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. Sorry to be hijacking the comments about another song. Just do yourself a favor and listen.
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.
what a lovely rendition. I love how the guitar is more complex in your style, those extra little notes add so much flavor and emotion. Your vocals were soulful and soothing as always, but i can’t help but wish Cobain were alive to song along with you, that would be an utter masterpiece.
HA I love this channel Frank. I hope you realize your making millions of people extremely happy. I’ve had such a blast watching all of these amazing covers and even your original songs. I can’t wait a single one of your videos without smiling. You bring so much joy to so many individuals. I hope you’re doing well and have an amazing day!
This is one of your best. The more trimmed down and simple the arrangement is the more your talent shows through. That's the sign of a truly great performer.
I love videos like this. Just a man playing his guitar. Not exactly as written down but played with such passion, knowing what the song needs to thrive. It brought me to tears a but, such humility and emotion.
I've literally never commented on a video before, but this is just too good. This video reminds me there are genuinely kind people in the world gives me some hope. It was a great joke haha beautiful cover by the way sound great!
This cover actually made me want to cry. It's that beautiful. I really love this cover! And also this is silly to say but, Happy really really late birthday!
Happy birthday, just wanted to let you know you've made me really happy over the time I've found you and I wanted to say you are my favorite musician ever❤💖❤
You, sir, have an excellent sense of humor in these very upside-down times. Bless you n yours. Gr8 version of a song that got me thru some dark times, bravo!
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
I freaking love you Frank! I’m in America (California) but I wish I could visit and have chat and just chill. My parents and family I knew growing up are all gone in heaven and I wish sometimes to just have an older adult to talk to and learn from and hear stories. Your family is very lucky and I know you are a very important and loved man to your family and all who know you❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
we like your style of performance-videos and also- ageless humour! thank you for the every effort and also for the hard housework you finally got yourself around doing. ;)
I'm a huge Nirvana fan and I really loved your picking style playing this track!! It was beautiful, dreamy and so kul to see all walks of life keeping Kurts music alive!! If only he was still here to see how many people he's influenced!! Also loved your jokes!!
Yes, telling jokes nowadays is joke itself, we need distance, I think I will print 'it's ok to laugh' sign and start walking with such sign on the streets
Coincidence: today is my b-day, and you start the video by saying "happy birthday"! haha nice! Also, keep the jokes please! You are not only a musician who makes me cry, you are also a comedian who makes me laugh. In the same video! Fantastic.
Lovely rendition, Nirvana is my favourite! This song's line "it's okay to eat fish 'cause they don't have any feelings" reminds me of the time you suggested you'd go vegan, I guess your daughter will be happy to hear you singing this xD

How does every older person get so good at telling whole ass jokes and making them really convincing stories, I love it.
It definitely comes from the instinctive belief coming from inner respect we give to older people
Life experience
The same way you get good at guitar.
Right 😂
Time
I feel like Kurt would've loved this with all his heart lol
I am quite sure Kurt would have loved this. Frank has done some extraordinary with a song that was already extraordinary.
Totally
People say shit like this all the time but I truly believe Kurt would love this
@@booterjuice6476 couldn't agree more 👏
You are so right. I sure wish we would have gotten to seen Kurt at this age, singing his songs for us on the web.

Ducaraaaiiii!!! Tem meu respeito!!
Made me goddamn cry, the softness of it just makes me think
Yes, telling jokes nowadays is joke itself, we need distance, I think I will print 'it's ok to laugh' sign and start walking with such sign on the streets
Also wish You health and hope You will play for us from time to time for many more years ^_^
You would be arrested!
@@LegendaryHewy I guess you don’t understand humor.
Nowadays we have a name for that, it's called 'fatal sense of humour syndrome' and unfortunately it's incurable
I love it Draco! For Frank here, the future's so bright, he's gotta wear shades!
“I’ve only got a small lawn” haha😂 I wish he were my dad, sometimes.
Bravo Frank! Hat's off sir, future's so bright, ya gotta wear shades!
its like leonard cohen plays nirvana. love it
Très belle interprétation ❤
I’ve never heard it played this way, it sounds like a completely different song in the best way possible. So glad I found your channel ❤
Happy Birthday to you, Good Sir. Enjoy your day.
I've just discovered your beautiful songs and at such an incredible time as a thunderstorm rolls into San Antonio. Absolutely perfect. Much love!
Awesome Frank...you got a way of singing those moody dark songs.
You made me so happy today sir. This is my favourite song. There's so much soul in your voice. Thank you for sharing.
Coincidence: today is my b-day, and you start the video by saying "happy birthday"! haha nice!
Also, keep the jokes please! You are not only a musician who makes me cry, you are also a comedian who makes me laugh. In the same video! Fantastic.
O senhor consegue melhorar todos os tipos de música! Que incrível
absolutamente verdade
This is my favorite song, I am so glad you and I could share a moment
Hey frank, I hope you have an amazing birth day!!!!
Also, I Personally I loved your version of the song just as much as the original!
😂 the delivery of that joke was done so well. I genuinely thought it was a real story at first!
Happy Birthday 🙌🏼🙌🏼 love from India🇮🇳🇮🇳💕💕
As I was listening, i was humming the string parts under my breath. This is fucking awesome.
Lovely rendition, Nirvana is my favourite! This song's line "it's okay to eat fish 'cause they don't have any feelings" reminds me of the time you suggested you'd go vegan, I guess your daughter will be happy to hear you singing this xD
lol!
