Guitar Lesson: How To Play Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana - Campfire Edition!

  • Опубликовано: 25 июл 2024
  • I nearly killed this idea before it even began, but I'm glad I gave a look into making a solo acoustic/campfire version of Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana. What I first took as a complicated idea (given Kurt's often undecipherable musical intentions that never cease to yield enigmatically glorious results) actually turned out to be pretty darn simple, due to the glaring clue that Kurt left us about what key this song is in... I truly hope you enjoy this effort, as I truly enjoyed making it.

      hahaha this is indeed the way. I'm contemplating switching to a gong since I have the space now...

    I like this better than the Malia J version. No shade; just a preference.

    That can't be right. That's an E major and A major for sure. Call me crazy...

    • @RyanLendt
      @RyanLendt  4 года назад +1

      My only point is that the melody is Em, which doesn't in any way shape or form assume that kurt meant minor or major for any of the chords, but that's a good of a guess as any since that's what they are in Em - you have my blessing to play E and A major if that's what your ears prefer, and no one could say you are wrong :)

    Way to use theory, brother. I was skeptical at first.
