The bass in any Nirvana song just really lets the mood of the song set in, Krist Novoselic did some good bass man.
Krist is one of the most underrated bassist like this guy has some insane talent
Especially when u hear the plain bass in a break
@@flamersshowsandmore3864 meh. for other bass players his stuff isnt that outrageous. i mean he sounds great for this style music but for technical skill hes no billy sheehan or john paul jones
good bASS bass
@@cringebutbetter2000 Slapa da bass!
For those who aren’t up to date: This song is about the actual kidnapping of a 14-year-old girl. In 1987, she was returning from a concert in Tacoma, Washington when she was abducted by a man named Gerald Friend. He took her back to his mobile home and raped her. The girl, whose name was not released, was tortured with a whip, a razor, and a blowtorch. She managed to escape when Friend took her for a ride and stopped for gas. He was arrested and sent to jail.
After reading the comment I can understand the song better
His last name misleading
I know that but I’m sure theirs many people who don’t know that
ahh so you saw the video too :)
@@mastersgenjimain what video?
Man, it sounds so clean, audiophiles heaven
I'm not even an audiophile but as a super fan I can hear the difference of these cuts they're uploading. So good
I mean, it still has the enormous compression by youtube
Paedophiles too considering what this song's based off

@@praxiann7615 true
Everyone's knows this song has a dark/deep meaning. But the most important thing is how Kurt put that deep meaning into very simple lyrics. It's so beautiful that the way Kurt expressing its deep meaning with simple words. He was a GENIUS💔 we miss u man!
He didn't write his songs
Yes, he was purely a genius. Oh wait Joe just made a gross statement!
Mr. Gross u are joke of course....I meant, u are grossly mistakaken of ca course!
@@joesphgross562 who did then?
@@ferrets5730 Google it lazy lol
@@joesphgross562 he did
A beautiful song with a dark meaning
Sorry but what dark meaning? I keep reading and reading the lyrics and I dont really understand
@@coraline874it’s a dark song with a beautiful tone, the song conveys the actual kidnapping of a 14-year-old girl.

The girl, whose name was not released, was tortured with a whip, a razor, and a blowtorch. She managed to escape when Friend took her for a ride and stopped for gas. He was arrested and sent to jail.
yeah true
@@adamgarcia7758 wait does it tie into “Rape Me” when he says “Rape me my friend”
Yeah you watched the nerdwriter video because you like song meanings handed to you on a platter shut up
When i hear Nirvana I get a comfortable safe feeling. Like I just got home after being gone for a long time.
Yeah martin! Lovely portrait. This record in party was such a masterpiece. Ya know, the kind of album that every song is great...start to finish
You know what endless nameless is right?

@TheNobody "i can't get com"
@TheNobody nowhere in the song is there a reference to a youngster, at all. Therefore concluding that u are really a nobody whose name really suits you, Nobody!
Now stop trying to put thought into Kurt's lyrics. Just listen & carry on banging ur head against the wall dude!
this captures what its like to be a sociopath, no emotions, just statement and events blankly laid out, masterpiece
Good point
Sonadow pfp ❤
Great insight.
It's eerie thinking about the mindset Kurt had to be in when writing some of Nirvana's songs like this one. It's like being in pain but being numb at the same time.
true
That's depression for you.
@@alfatazer_8991 I agree what made him kill himself also made him mad talented, kurt comes from a place where most people wouldn't understand privilege people wouldn't understand he was not privileged growing up and it gave him a better understanding of humanitarianizm
Yah I guess u could call it depression or you could call it heroine addiction but depression and heroine didn't suicide him that is all thanks to his tweaker greedy self centered narcissistic wife that had him offed
What a masterpiece the thought process of this song is like no other 10/10
Kinda genius how catchy this song is. Like an itching reminder to distance yourself from the kind of person this song's pov is from
This is one of the most beautifully depressing and dark songs ever written
True. I think only better song with dark meaning is ekv last song anesthesia
Don’t think it’s as dark as heart shaped box tbh….
@@eddiehughes929 bro what
@@ponod your eyes not working or something? Maybe your ears. Not hard to read.
@@eddiehughes929 Are you aware what Polly is about
Kurt was such thoughtful and amazing person, this song is an example. Most artists would just read the article and go on with their day but Kurt/nirvana didn't, they created an awareness for her and other people who have gone through the same thing. Nirvana most likely didn't care about the money instead cared about that 14 year old girl. I put Kurt but the other members of Nirvana were just as amazing. I'm truly sorry for who may of suffered through rape ect
Hi I recommend A Song called 'Looking Into The Mirror' By Robert Nix
@@redskies4530 i recommed a tribe called quest
Do you like pumped up kicks too? Seems like upbeat songs about tragedies are your thing.
@@nash0089 what? 😂
@@nash0089 if you think this song is upbeat I don't want to hear what your idea of glum is
"She caught me off my guard, amazes me the will of instinct" are quite possibly the best lyrics in this song! Shows that even though you can be in such an aweful situation that instinctively we have to fight and not give up! 💜🖤
my favorite part!
bro this song is about a guy raping a 14 year old
That part was just playing, when I read this comment
@@rekabalint1384 love when that happens!
This song will always be legendary

It's about the rape of a 14 year old girl
How can a song be so good yet not complicated at all
music is about feeling
minimalism can be quite the effective tool in music composition, that's the essence of why punk song structures can be so endearing while being mostly based on CAGED + Power Chords, in most cases.
a song doens't need to be the most orchestral to sound good and you can see that a lot all over Nirvana's music, from the chorus of In Bloom to the last recordings.
If only you knew the meanings behind those lyrics...
if you knew the meaning behind the song you would think its complicated
Recorded on a $30 guitar by the way.
Such a deep song, beautiful simple
The song must play when i play my acoustic guitar … high school era never wrong “ good era for band and music “thanks nirvana bring a new perceptions on a music
Amen 🙏

Must play for me too, i always use it to test tunings and stuff out because it's so easy
Lyrics:
Polly wants a cracker
I think I should get off her first
I think she wants some water
To put out the blow torch
Isn't me, have a seed
Let me clip your dirty wings
Let me take a ride, cut yourself
Want some help, please myself
Got some rope, haven't told
I promise you, I have been true
Let me take a ride, cut yourself
Want some help, please myself
Polly wants a cracker
Maybe she would like some food
She asks me to untie her
A chase would be nice for a few
Isn't me, have a seed
Let me clip your dirty wings
Let me take a ride, cut yourself
Want some help, please myself
Got some rope, haven't told
I promise you, I have been true
Let me take a ride, cut yourself
Want some help, please myself
Polly said
Polly says her back hurts
And she's just as bored as me
She caught me off my guard
Amazes me the will of instinct
Isn't me, have a seed
Let me clip your dirty wings
Let me take a ride, cut yourself
Want some help, please myself
Got some rope, haven't told
I promise you, I have been true
Let me take a ride, cut yourself
Want some help, please myself
One of my alltime favorite songs from the band. Made me form an opinion that Kurt was a very entertaining storyteller. His attention to detail was too legit.
I love how in the New Wave version Dave is absolutely tearing up the drums while in this version he's just going 0:23
Fun Fact: Chad recorded the drums here

dude kurt was a genius, this man created such great songs and he was amazing at making them, rip kurt
He has a pretty dark sense of humor,he can create a song from something happened from irl just like this song.
A genius would be strong.
He shot himself in the head at 27.
Nevertheless he breaks tears in my eyes.
Darkest Nirvana song written, I remember thinking it was about a bird…
same here when I was younger
Same
MY GOD SAME
Same
I also did
Happy to see all these uploads tonight
Why did they upload the catalogue when they already have done so a long time ago?
@@mojo6112 probably to annoy the guy (baby on the album cover) trying to sue them lmao
@@folieadeux2 lmao. Unfortunately not its digitally remastered audio
@@revengeof1307 oh right I forgot about that lmao
Love how tuv was able to explain the story behind this song in a simple manner
You couldn’t have just said that on his video?
@@TheUAG1 whats wrong with commenting on this video?
@@rubyzombiesniper3699 nothing I’m just saying you had to say it on the actual video as if tuv is the only way it found fame
The vibe and sound of this album feels like it had a lot to do with water, fluids, breeding, sex, fertility and woman conceiving children, while In Utero had a lot to do with bodies, more fluids, organs, anatomy, diseases and mental conditions. Let me know what you think this all means, I'd love to hear your interpretations!
when you put it like that, maybe the circle of life / life’s cyclical nature. everything comes and goes
I think you belong in a clinic.
@@mikewazowski5900 I think you need to open your mind a bit
agree
i genuinely think kurt didn’t give enough of a fuck to write out a philosophical record for us all to figure out the meaning behind it. he was just a heroin addict
such a deep song yet so simple kurts so talented
This is one of the best songs of all time from one of the best bands of all time thank you nirvana and R.I.P Kurt

@@sheismyheroiamherkeeper not the same girl
I''m honestly curious about how the victim and her family felt about the song
My immediate assumption is that it would bring back bad memories but I don't want to speak for her
This was and will always be one of my all time favorite songs..
this song gives me chills
Now i’m in a good mood to listen to Nirvana all day
Til you know the meaning of this song
@@wyattatm6989 I already know the meaning to it and still listen to them so yeah
even though it has a dark meaning, I love the song so much and Kurt's calm voice is so nice
I don't know but kurt, krist, and dave the perfect trio in the world of music. They compliment each other extremely-well.
Amazing and sad that this man created awareness for this girl and what she went through, such a shame he passed away. He didn't just make lyrics, he *made* lyrics. He found ways for people to understand him and his music, we will forever miss you Mr. Cobain
sad? how is it sad that he made awareness
@@NyanSukaato cause of what the girl went through
*wrote* lyrics.
Forgot how amazing this song is! Haven’t listened to it in 10 years or so…give me chills💔
Fun Fact: Kurt bought a Harmony Stella 12 string for $30 specifically to record Polly to make it sound raw and abrasive. The guitar stayed in tune long enough for them to record Polly but fell out of tune soon after
Edit: Despite the guitar being a 12 string, Kurt only strung it with 5 Nylon strings
Kurt wrote most of his body of work on Pear St in Olympia,my buddy lived two houses up the ally we both knew Kurt a little bit,I did a video of the house, he was evicted but by then he hit the big time on MTV....
Knowing Kurt is probably the coolest thing you can tell other people!
That's so awesome dude
kurt will always be a lyrical genius. rest in heaven man
Uhhhh he's definitely not in "Heaven" lol. Heaven's for chumps and conformists. He's wherever the cool people go. The people that actually lived life and made a difference.
@@jkunick you right, he's cutting up with the other great musicians of our time
One of my favorites from Nevermind. When i first discovered Nirvana i listened to this song.
Extremly good and emotional song.
Love playing this one on guitar, nice and easy and sounds amazing
Same thing
Thanks for keeping this Channel active and putting out the 30th year anniversary version

And after a magnificent song like Lithium comes this little gem, how wonderful 💘
I do not know why but after knowing the back story, the song can never be the same
I love the drums in this song.
Omg I’ve always loved the harmony vocals to this tune!
the very sparse use of percussion is genius, the way it connects components of the song together
For some reason any other band or music just dosent feel the same way as nirvana yeah nirvana maybe one of the biggests bands and it’s highly popular but it is for a reason and no matter we all listen to these songs over and over again for many years it will always feel the same
Love it!
this song gives me chills whenever i listen to it
Why?
@@Nirvana_girl2010 its just one of those songs that are eerily Quiet , also the songs meaning contributes
Hi I Recommend an Indie Song that's called: 'The Bond Villain' by Robert Nix
dark lyrics but such a subtle song, i forgot how good this really is
This song depicts a horrible real life situation a 14 yr old girl had to go through. Beautiful song but really sad.
at 1:55 when he says "poly said" and then says it again bar to later, the first time was a mistake that they left in the final mix. The more you know 🙌🌈
Simply amazing
there's reason why old songs are good and golden and classic.
One of my most favorite songs
I love the drums in this song
“It amazes me the will of instinct” Beautiful ❤️
This song always makes me cry
Greatest lyrics ever written!
I've never heard something like that before. It's fascinating who he creates several deep meanings without even saying much.
Example:
1. "Have a seat" (pretty self explanatory)
2. "Have a seed" (in regards to the bird metaphor)
3. "Have a seed" (Well… I guess we all know what that's supposed to mean…)
Not even 1000 likes yet! I love the backstory of this song! And the lyrics are just mwah Kurt wrote so good
Simple, yet brilliant.

On a deeper level, it's not just a reference, it's Kurt forcing the listener to focus on the rapist, to wake society up on WHO exactly needs to be taught.

@@femboylordd5978 dark yea
@@mommymilkers6032 huh
Not really underrated. Don't know how old you are but this album was huge when it came out, the songs from it were ubiquitous. For a most of that year everywhere you went, every time you turned on the radio or a music show on TV or went to a party it was this album or Pearl Jam Ten or RHCP blood sex sugar magic.
What a masterpiece
one of kurts best creations tbh
Kurt was an absolute genius songwriter. He knew of the times and that all was not okay with the world (especially with what happened that inspired this song) and reflected his thoughts and emotions through a guitar before he wrote lyrics and sung them. Like Jim Morrison and Bob Marley before him, his time on Earth was all too brief but he left an indelible mark on the world as he changed the face of rock music forever.
Yet another great Track. Superb stuff - R.I.P mate.
I didn’t like this when I was younger, but you know what… Listening today, I can totally understand the appeal, it’s really a pretty good song.

I miss you Kurt. You're the best of the best. Love you.
Beautiful song
what a cool song
still amazing after all the time
I love the melody
I hope that the girl that inspired this song was able to recover both physically and mentally after her abduction
Nostalgic!!!
The best song 🖤🖤, thank you my little angel
Masterpiece
Thanks nirvana for make me feel good and happy♥
No grunge band will ever be as good as Nirvana and if I were to write an essay about anyone and why I think they're a civil rights hero - I'd pick Kurt Cobain as my idol because he made music for the love of music and knew that his true fans would/always will always stick by his / nirvana's side! I mean if I had my own band I'd go with Death Metal with Nirvana being one of our greatest influences! RIP Kurt
