Pat Smear always looks like he's been invited by his favourite band on the stage and it's his best day ever
That's about how much he contributes to his bands, too
My favorite description I've ever heard
I always wondered if "Smear" was like a punk stage name...it sounds like it, like "Rotten" but maybe not because you could have something good like delicious grape jam being smeared...lol
@@Egoblivion it's a pun on "pap smear", his real name is Georg
@@klugg3389 Oh, ok 😂 thanks
I just realized, Dave Grohl is going to have two different bands inducted into the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame. That's pretty fucking crazy, and honestly couldn't happen to a better human.
It’s like he’s Clapton or something...
Pat Smear has played in both too, albeit as a "touring musician" or whatever they want to call people they play with but they don't consider part of the band, contractually.
I mean the Beatles are in as a group and as individual performers.
Foo Fighters are shite.
But It wouldn't be a surprise if they're inducted. Some other lame bands are right there such as Red Hot Chili Peppers, Bon Jovi and Green Day.
@@condimentking414 So who do you listen too?
Two things about Dave Grohl.
1) He IS Animal from the Muppets.
2) He is absolutely loving this moment. As am I.
'spot ON.', dood.. ;- P
\m/
x
Damn, good call, he totally is...frigging awesome
Chaka .
I watch this video periodically because I LOVE how she started off a little nervous but then broke out. Even Krist was touched. You could see Dave in the background loving her performance. But the second reason is because I grew up with this band. On a selfish side, I feel cheated because I didn't get more music from Nirvana and it was at a time where we really needed it. But I also feel for the band and families that are still dealing with Kurt's death.
yea it took her a second. she did whats sometimes hard to do an looked at the audience. Remembered why she was up there. When her fav part of the song came she nailed it. For a brief second she was truly there or awoke, or in the zone whatever you call it. 3:34 you can see the psycho in her eyes lol. It's not really psycho but its just a higher level of excitement that you don't blow off traditionally by like excersizing or jumping around like those ladies in the crowd per say lol. That one moment was everything. All you have to do is kill/own one moment in a song.
and that one guy gave her the hats off lol. He meant it
I think it's just her nailing the essence of the song, its progression is genius. She may be the only person other than Kurt who could've performed this song live.
Seeing dave smilin and back on drums is priceless
Yes!
Lol. Dave has done TONS of drumming since Nirvana.
No one Knows - Queens of the stone age
Real life living legend.
it is but no denying this was total shit
I don’t think many people give enough credit to Pat Smear for being as great as he is.
yea yea yeahhh
Germs a hugely influential band.
yEAH, Great ...I met him backstage in Turin with the Germs, he sign a guitar of mine that I stupidly sold some years ago...I remember his understatement, he gave his guitar during the live on the stage to a random kid who played perfectly the whole song...great night that night...(forgive my english)
He force it too much... sorry.
He is ranked number ten in top punk guitarists
Very much something Kurt would have loved is talented women singing his songs
But then he got murdered
YOU "knew" Cobain?? Or are you lying like a little girl?
@@JewishJeff839Cobain was an outspoken feminist who used his fame to spotlight female led bands. I have little doubt that he would appreciate St. Vincent
@@JewishJeff839 I knew Kurt and yeah he would have liked it but not you using a "little girl" to denigrate someone, fake tough guy.
@@starwarssatan5588He didn't.
Coming back to this now all I see is Annie is so into it and putting it all out there. Great performance.
She's not exactly nailing the "Yeaaaaaaaahs", though.
Bruh it takes some balls to get up there and perform Kurt's song with Nirvana, dayum
@Malchik Blue well in this case you're literally correct
Annie Clark has more talent in her little finger than Kurt Cobain, it's not a big deal for her to play this. I mean, Dave Grohl has more talent than Kurt Cobain and he's just drumming in Nirvana.
@L C yes he had tons of charisma and stage presence. But compared to Annie Clark, a multi instrumentalist who knows a ton about intricate production...he is basically a garage band guy playing barre chords and screaming. If he wouldn't have died, he would be as revered as say, the guys from Soundgarden or any of that era's bands.
@@Gino565 yeah, I was around then. I know all about Nirvana and how they were in the right place and the right time to score a breakout hit with their imitation of a Pixies song. Kurt's words, not mine. I also remember many other, more talented grunge and alternative bands of that period that did not get so lucky.
@@jefetters7182 yeah, Cobains death didnt create his mystique, it was already well in place before that tragedy...and for good reason..a guy who "screamed and just used power chords" knocked every top artist from multiple genres out of the billboard top spot...and opened the way for the pearl jams and soundgardens of the world to have mainstream success..i think you downplay Kurt and Nirvanas influence..they will be remembered long after she is forgotten..and i mean no disrespect to her..as a huge Fan of a lot of those seattle bands who never got big like mudhoney..i never hold nirvanas mainstream success against them..they paid thier dues before getting big
like how she sings it just differently enough to make it her own instead of being a bad imitation of Kurt. Nobody can imitate him, but she took the song and evolved it and it's got all the emotion it's supposed to have. marvellous
i thought puddle of mudd did a great impression XD
The guitar part is bang on. I mean, bang on. St Vincent is as good a guitarist in terms of technique and feel as you'll find, and she obviously wanted it to be bang on, and Dave's grin tells you that it's the song he remembers from back then.
Meh it still sucks ass. No chorus on the guitar, the phrasing is sloppy. No drive in the vocals. 4/10, Highschool band cover
@@en3525 you seem to have a fundamental misunderstanding of what a chorus pedal sounds like. Maybe if your ears weren't so far inside your rectum...
Spot on. That fool is clueless.
Great performance and this was my introduction to Annie Clark / St Vincent and I have listened to all her records ever since.
Me too. She crushed this moment.
oh, she’s unapologetically good indeed
Same
I got to see her and her band open for Roxy Music last year. She was a force of nature. Very polished, very relaxed, and at the same time intense.
I give her credit for even being able to get up on stage and perform such an iconic song in front of all her peers. That couldn't have been easy, and no doubt the expectation was high on her that night. She performed well.
It's a phenomenal performance by ALL on that stage.
Would it be in bad taste for nirvana to play in tribute to Kurt in future but with st Vincent?? She was great
Annie Clark is a world renowned guitar player, this was just another day at the office for her. She’s amazing live and always has been
What? That's what she does. She's a rockstar performer, not hard to do this at all and she was chosen to do it for a reason.
my thoughts exactly
I love Krist showing respect by taking off his hat and putting it to his heart in admiration for another artist. Class, man.
He's a gentleman!
Yep and just after the smile and nod of the head by Grohl was like a great choice for the singer moment from both.
Hearing other people sing, even with the same people Kurt played with, makes you truly appreciate how powerful his life force was.
Great comment
Kurt Cobain solo hay Uno ,lástima que se fue tan Joven
nice way of say they cannot hold a candle to him.
Honestly, Courtney Love is one of the few who could match the power of Kurt's voice, which is what made "Live Through This" such a great album. But she couldn't really play guitar, and obviously wouldn't have been an appropriate presence with the band at the HOF induction.
Maybe Chris Cornell could have done it. Was he asked?
YEAH. i like st vincent too. But man, Kurts power. Was fuck irreplacable.
Any hardcore Nirvana fans knows Cobain sung off key in the song.. she nailed it!! One of the best covers. Anyone not a St. Vincent fan needs to look up the rest of her covers. She's a helluva talented artist.
Cool how Krist @ 3:05 has to work hard not to change the tempo when she was singing offbeat.
I’d even say that comparing to covers her original stuff is way more impressive and valuable, she’s a monster and a hell of a guitar player
OMG her own music catalog is f’ing amazing. Look that up first, for Pete’s sake!
Her self-titled album from 2014 is one of my favourite rock albums of the past 20 years
No he didn’t sign off key
What I'd give to see a whole Nirvana set with St. Vincent on the mic.
She's a good female version of Kurt
@@fartkerson what
That would be great
Yes. This exactly.
Yeah...
Its funny that he says she is the "singer in the band" St. Vincent. She IS St. Vincent!
I've heard her say in her own words before that she's in a band named St Vincent. I think of it like how Trent Reznor is Nine Inch Nails, because he's the main creative force, but he has people that play instruments and sometimes contribute with him, too.
@@spiralmewtrix and like PJ Harvey
@@spiralmewtrix Some people name the band after the lead singer, or a persona as in the case of St. Vincent and Alice Cooper.
@@wvu05 Or Hootie and the blow fish......
@@myshelleseamore6319 Darius Rucker always insisted that no one was Hootie, but when you put "and the" in the name of your band, you're kind of setting yourself up for people thinking that.
3:19 "I'm so ugly, but that's OK: so are you" and animal grinning behind his drums.
You mean...Animool!
She captures the feeling. Great performance
totally not
This was such a great performance!!! I was blown away that night at how she took that song and ran with it.
Wonder if anybody's ever forgotten the chorus.
Yeah, i mean... No
Hahahahahahaha
Yes, and replaced with mumble rap.
Maybe just how many times to say, yeaaayeah.
No
The algorithm brought me here. All hail the algorithm.
100% agree lol
no one cares
you're an error
The spice must flow. (Sunday morning is everyday for all I care). Who's here in 2053?
"Smells like..." may be the song that made them famous, but for me, this was always the song that encapsulated the band the most. Pain, joy, aggression and peace all rolled into on.
and it's so stupid and cringe seeing nirvana fans hating on the song cause it's "ovverated" it literally made history of music, it's a perfect song
I love this performance. awesome!
I love how she made that song her own and really leaned into the words of the song and the mania of it all. Dave's smile tells me he approves of her take on it.
Exactly. It wasn't a Kurt Cobain "impression", it was her own interpretation, using her own voice and her own style, but still a tribute to Kurt.
@Ray Jones Uh not belonging to her
@Ray Jones naw, not the worst cover ive seen but, i personally dont think she suits it all
@@sheekennmove By "making the song her own" that's just a way of saying "not being a cookie-cutter copy of Kurt, but doing her own thing."
Julie, I think you'd love Violet Orlandi.
I loved this one the most since I feel like Kurt would be a St Vincent fan.
Same vein, Kurt would want to be King Princess best friend.
Indeed, like them a lot!
Definitely
Why? This girl is absolutely terrible.
@@bassage13St. Vincent has 4 million monthly listeners on Spotify....so guess you're in the lower percentile on that one.
It is such a breath of fresh air and content to see Dave on any live performance, to watch him pushing music up everytime, no ego, no pretense. Understanding the whole piece and performance and deliverying the best of himself while pushing the other artists as well. That is how everyone should be when getting to that possition. The art and your talent can only grow, and leveling with emerging talents can never be wrong.
Magnificent version of an iconic song. Thank you.
At the start of each verse she intentionally sings slower than the beat and induces a feeling of unrest. Genius. I am sure Kurt did this too. But this one is more deliberate and discernable
To each's own. Didn't feel it.
It's the lies you tell yourself. She struggled to sing the whole song but particularly those parts
@@ibnsina9486 haha I definitely had a feeling of unrest listening to it
@@ibnsina9486 totally struggles
nice catch! I loved her subdued approach to the song.
I see so many people hating on her but you have to understand. Kurt had his own way of singing and Annie did a hell of a job, I love this version so much and Kurt is smiling at them from heaven
No, he's in the ground rotting, such is life.
@@joelellis9480 wao so deep, drink a capri sun
@@joelellis9480 wrong he was cremated
@@bradsanders407 damn right rip Kurt
I bet that at the time this was recorded, she couldn't give a crap about what ANYONE said... SHE-WAS-DATING ;CARA DELEVIVGNE!!!
Annie,
Thank you so much for doing an excellent version of this song and for making Dave and Kris smile on stage. I cried when Kris took off his hat and put it over his heart while looking at Annie. This is very special for all Nirvana fans.
Damn I forgot how badass this was
I love how she goes into it with that dead inside this is just another gig feeling and you can see it in her eyes when it hits her.
I think you're off the mark about "just another gig" -- I think it's more a sense of "I need to get this right" -- but you're right that it hits her at "I found God" and from then on she's totally inside the song.
Yeah, you can feel the weight of pressure, and then, what hits is the joy of the whole band because she’s crushing it.
Krist should toss his Bass again like VMA 1992.
@@egierzal2184 not over your head bro. Do not be scared.
He was drunk that day I believe.
Ouch that hurt just to see
Awesome reference!
I heard that was Dave that threw the bass and got hit in the head.
I might be the only one, but wouldn't it be nice to have her sing a whole set of Nirvana songs at a gig in honor of Nirvana?! I truly liked how she was able to blend in the song with her playing and singing style, paired with her charisma!
Lol what charisma? She looked like bump on a log
oh my, she can cover just about anyone she sounds incredible. have you seen that compilation video of her covering a bunch of songs that inspired her?
This was the best Nirvana performance at the rock and roll hall of fame in my opinion 🤘 🎸
That bassline is killer. Dave's drumming is, too. Annie is superb on both vocals and guitar. This is very, very good.
Kurt would have liked it...
Best cover in many ways. So much of the original magic but not a cheap copy of Kurt. I'd watch a set of these 4 doing Nirvana tunes happily.
These vocals could be superb for J-rock, not for Nirvana
The grin on Dave's face after she sings "I'm so ugly, that's okay, 'cause so are you" at 3:15 is absolutely priceless!
He's fantasising about fresh pots, twas a coincidence.
@@nbieghler FREEEESSHHHH POOOOOTSSSS
Dave Grohl is everything a rock drummer should be!
I don't listen to St. Vincent but I feel she gave a beautiful performance of this song. It actually makes me want to seek out her songs because when I heard a few years ago I didn't take to it. Her vocal style is so alluring and oddly soothing during this almost like a surreal dream.
I feel like St. Vincent should cover a Talking Heads song since she's an equivalent to a female David Byrne.
she did an album with David Byrne awhile back actually
no no no no and no again
@@owenpattaylor Ive heard of it. Its damn great.
She's more like a female Annie Lennox.
You do know that they paired up, don't you?
Kurt was the man although Annie did a dynamite job on that. She has such a relaxed way of going up and down the Fretboard a lot of talent there. How she plays doesn’t distract from the song.
Such a good version. Thank you!
she nailed it big time ! great cover Annie
Still no joke about the drummer of nirvana looks like foo fighters lead singer?
Can’t tell if you’re trolling or just don’t know but yes Dave Grohl was the drummer for Nirvana and then formed Foo Fighters
Guitarist also from Foos!
Youre right! They idéntical! How did i not see this b4? Omg
Good god this thread is terrible.
"Why the fuck is Dave on drums...oh yeah, that's right"
See dave again in drums is amazing
What a great performance. Love it.
Miss Annie Clark "St. Vincent" has been a pro as a recording artist for over 20 years. She is a highly skilled multi-instrumentalist (guitar, bass guitar, keyboards, percussion), singer, songwriter, record producer, screenwriter, actress, and director.Graduate of the Berkley School of Music. Her music is noted for its complex arrangements, utilizing a wide array of instruments. She is the recipient of various accolades, including three grammy's. Miss Annie Clark is a great guitarist. Gorgeous in looks and voice. Amazingly talented. The idiots hating on her on how she performs this song have no fucking clue. Never was and never will be. No talent fucks running thier mouth.
How does the shoe leather taste?
@@bendovermen9425 lol
This is the best comment on the internet this year by my book. I aspire to be worthy of such in about 20 years.
She could be Jesus and this particular performance would still suck, she is out of tune and has literally no volume in her voice at all which made it sound very flat. Maybe she had a bad day or was sick, but that doesn't change objective facts!
@@TheBod76 “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” -Theodore Roosevelt
Dave is a great front man but he's one of the best performing drummers I've ever seen.
I could listen to an Annie Clark-fronted Nirvana all day.
Saint Nirvana!!!!
Meh...it’s a bit too expressionless for me. Apparent apathy for the sake of apparent apathy...
@@manifestgtr ummmmm...wait, no - ummmmmmm... Okay, I think I got something here.... no, nothing for the most clueless comment I've ever seen on RUclips.
@@jamesalan3450
You’re telling me...that in the vast ocean of misspellings and half-baked, third grade philosophy that is the youtube comments, *this* is the most “clueless” thing you’ve ever seen? Somebody’s opinion on a performance?
@@manifestgtr I don't get out much.
Still one of my faves from their catalogue of outrageously awesome songs.
This Performance was very emotional for me cause like you know this will be the last time nirvana preforms as a band and like this song shows how poetic and a genius kurt cobain is its a shame he died so young nirvana left a huge mark in rock music and they will go down in history of one of the most impactful bands they influence artist of diffrent genres and generations and shows how meaningful and amazing their music is i will be a fan till the day i die R.I.P kurt you will be missed and never forgotten legends never die
I was there that night and I have to say this was best performance by far, as good as this video is, doesn't do justice to how good it was live!!!
Waiting for the know it all comments. 🤣. And to those who keep saying she’s doesn’t sound like Kurt of course 😊NOT because she is Annie Clark!!’
Annie rocks !!!❤️
Go to the other comments on a different video with the same performance.
My god those drum sounds massive
the smiles on their faces are priceless, some awesome people on that stage
Wow she did amazing, takes a lot of courage to fill in for someone like Kurt
I wonder why he couldn’t make it
@@tallulahahrens-siegel9832 that show would blow his mind. again
Not really. He stole a lot of his music.
@@alp5088 what?
@@kamunagara common knowledge. Kurt Cobain wasn't a pioneer or influencer.
That little smirk when she finishes - she knows she crushed it!
How did I just come across this. Such a great occasion, worked very well.
Major memories on that stage at the moment. You could see it on the guys faces. And she did an awesome job too
WE MISS YOU KURT
I'm so glad I stumbled onto this. I love Annie and I think she did a wonderful job of bringing her own voice to my favorite Nirvana song.
Annie is so fucking amazing.....she grabs this song by the nads and makes it hers....
lol what a joke!! 🤮🤮🤮
@@nataliam9764 What "band" aren't you in?
I hadn't seen this until now and I have to say that St. Vincent and the guys from Nirvana sound amazing!! Hope Kurt's pleased with this version of his awesome songs!!
One of the most depressive songs and bands in rock history, you can feel the pain. By the way, Dave Grohl is a beast.
Have you hear Heart Shaped Box?
This is really great. Love how her vocal gets slightly more intense in the end. Really enjoyed her interpretation
Love it so much!
This is still my favorite of the performances for Nirvana. Annie Clark is bad ass.
nah...i'm underwhelmed
She couldve give more but she did decent
She really is
Sad Kurt Cobain noises.
She nailed it! What a great tribute.
This is just so good. I have no words for how good this is.
great performance of a great song!!!!!
How the fck have I not seen this before?? Amazing.
It's because they just recently released it online. So glad they did!
Actually there's one back in 2014 I believe. I saw it a few months ago and now they release this part.
no. wish I could unsee this
@@willyraybyrne3622 hahaha I just paid attention to the instruments. They could have picked someone much better, but it still wouldn't be good enough. I feel like that with AIC. The guy is good but it still doesn't sound right.
You were lucky until then?
I always thought Krist looked like he belonged playing bass. The way he moves with it is so natural and fluid, like he's at one with it. He's the master samurai of bass players :)
Great performance by all too.
10 years later and this is still amazing. Take this lineup out on tour with Thunderpussy as the opener!
dave looked so happy that SMILE MAN. i love that they brought four women up to perform, i think kurt would’ve approved. rip legend
This was the best of the cover performances
Helps to have the surviving members of Nirvana playing said “cover.”
@@LuckyDrD No one else can play bass or drums?
@@JewishJeff839 So Paul McCartney performing “Hey Jude” is a Beatles cover?
Dave has such a great work ethic. Just give everything every time.
Man I’m not gonna f lie. She f nailed it bro.
Everytime I play this song, I pour water over my head at the start. It is satisfying to then spit water all over my keyboard. I do like how Annie does not smile before belting that out. She is quite seriously into the mood of the song. She real.
She killed it!!! This is freaking awesome and I usually don't like anyone covering Nirvana!
I really love how she didnt change the song but still add her own style to it
I love these guys what a great tribute..
Here's hoping (with St Vincent supporting the Foos on their UK 2022 Tour) that we get another rendition of this. Nirvana saved my life and to see this LIVE would make me the happiest human being alive :))))
Both “I like it I’m not gunna crack” parts give me chills when she sings it
Same
"Crack" or "Cry"??
@@JewishJeff839 Good catch. Maybe she did a Kurt, eh? It's "Crack' but sounds like 'Cry' for some of them. Hello, hello, hello, how low?
You can just tell that Dave loves being on drums more than anything else
Love this.
That was fantastic
That was one of the best performances I’ve seen anywhere. Anne Clark showed just how good a performer she is
Dave always seems happy when he's jamming.
thats fuckin great seeing dave growl just happy up there playing with st vincent singing. shes so gorgeous too, and a really outstanding musician. seeing krist and pat playing up there makes your heart feel good.
I don’t know why but this tears me up. Awesome performance
love this version, they absolutely crushed this!!!
You can just see the look on their faces. Performing their Nirvana music with her. So amazing
I saw St Vincent perform before FF's at Shaky Knees this past October and it was so good ! Hoping they join FF's this summer !
I love her guitar's tone
Genius move having her doing this..great performance.
It hurt so much in a beautiful kind of way because he is not forgotten.. And it is so bwautiful how they sound and that pat krist and dave are together on stage
That was awesome !!
Dave Grohl's happy face as the entire band de-ages by thirty years has absolutely made my day. They need to tour. I'd give up my retirement savings and possibly a testicle for that
I love this version. Love the sound, love the look, love the band. One love.
