      100% agree. First thing I thought when I heard him start talking here is "eloquent".
      On an unrelated note though, it's a bit odd to see him really trying to answer questions. Later years after Nevermind, Kurt generally seems a bit recluded from many interviews (but always as intelligent and eloquent as ever).

    • @SpaceJaicen
      @SpaceJaicen 5 лет назад +70

      Other TechLead , funny Dave Grohl has said so in interviews and even mentions at the Hall of Fame speech, with In Bloom. Do you know about the Smart Sessions prior to Nevermind ? Chad played on those recordings , there’s a lot that influenced songs on Nevermind, In Bloom, Lithium, Breed. Hell, Chad went uncredited for his small parts on Polly that was used in the final recording. All in all, Chad was on multiple albums and during a big part leading to Nirvana’s rise. There is no comparison to Pat Smear who was only added on as an extra guitarist.

    • @SpaceJaicen
      @SpaceJaicen 5 лет назад +12

      Other TechLead wouldn’t say they didn’t think highly as Chad as a person but they felt creative differences as a player. It happens in bands, I’ve experienced that with other members. Shitlist sounds petty

"You can fantasize all you want/he was on their shitlist/end of narrative/Kurt & Krist thought..." Fucking listen to yourself.
      By the way, Grohl ABSOLUTELY said Channing influenced Nevermind and Dave has explained several times, with examples, INCLUDING at the HOF induction, how he played the EXACT parts Chad had come up with for songs like Breed, In Bloom, Lithium etc. You know dog shit, your attitude is dog shit and you're far too stupid to act so condescending towards amiable people like SpaceJaisen here.

      @soulchildish 6 лет назад +26

      He was already f*ed up and negative at the highth of his career one year later, shortly after the release of nevermind and weeks before they became huge worldwide. you can see it in an interview from their tourstart in canada where he already had his hateful sarcastic behaviour treating every reporter like shit, not giving him one answer, not looking at him for a second during the whole conversation. at that point he already had big money from the geffen-signing in his pocket and spent it on heroin. I don't blame him at all, but it's obvious it made him a 24/7 paranoid prick, not easy to get along with. and that was before courtney. being alone and being strung out probably sucked. obviousely getting famous and falling in love a few weeks into the nevermind tour brought some happiness back in his life, especially having a baby, the dream of a happy family life, that was all of a sudden possible. no financial problems, having a wife and a kid and a house. but 1) being rich gave him the confidence to continue letting his frustration out on anyone, even his bandmates, and 2) addiction doesn't go away just from beeing rich and happy. it will at some point destroy you and bring the darkside into the happiest life. if he hated the media he could have just quit, he had enough money. but if you've dealt with depression and feelings of emptiness all your life and you're a sensitive person (i mean that as a huge compliment), if you're not deeply rooted into a happy family from childhood on, then new troubles in your currently happy life will likely seem impossible to face and you'll get suicidal thoughts (again) way faster than other people. A highly sensitive person person, unable to see the bigger picture, as his personal pain from his perspective became unbearable and always was too intense. There's no guilt. He was the (wonderful) person that he was. Drugs harm less sensitive people, not saying drugs killed him, that's bullshit, but they certainly make it harder to get your shit together. I'm a negative creep. That self-reflexion was written long before Courtney and heroin and long before this interview. He was born the way he was, and all of us have our positive and negative potentials. And let's not speculate. Suicides can be commited completely randomly, and noone knows the ways of the butterfly effects that lead to them. Of course its easier to get involved in the speculating about somebodys death (somebody we all didn't know) by accusing his evil narcisist wife. Well for me that's dumb. And I guess for Kurt it'd be too.

  • @djsandy303
    @djsandy303 4 года назад +6

    The last quote from kurt struck me. "Doesnt matter what your product looks like, its what it sounds like". Kurt really helped define the grunge visual aesthetic which is massively influential today even in hiphop/trap fashion. Seems today that marketing and the visual and surrounding antics of new artists matter just as much if not more than the music. Maybe the lesson learned is to not be so clouded by the surrounding marketing of artists today and concentrate of having a good musical product.

Melodic but can stay fast paced and slow down if they want. Tight drummer and a fat chunky bass! ALOT artist use the same formula but it's something about those bands I listed that give me an artistic connection with that inspires me to write music using a formula like theirs.

    Kurt was so beautiful. When it first cuts to him @ 0:23 … I practically gasped out loud. It catches me off guard whenever I see footage of him. I mean I listen to Nirvana often and love their music. Kurt’s voice is something that has become very familiar to me but I don’t see his face often. It’s easy to forget that he was basically the definition of “classically handsome” because his music so perfectly embodies what it means to feel ugly/outcasted/downtrodden. It’s a good reminder that what you see on the outside doesn’t always reflect how people feel inside. Just because someone is beautiful doesn’t mean they are happy. We miss you Kurt.

      Jimmy Saboter mm yeah probably. Though Kurt writing about taking heroin in 87, i think is part of the many hyperbolic stories that Cobain Made, and he was great at that. Everyone around him that time said that wasnt a way that he did heroin in Aberdeen. Like Novoselic said that when he finally tried it he called by the phone to tell him, and that was In mid or late 1990. In 1990 Kurt wasn´t an addict. Like he said when he "get asociated with the smack scene un seattle (living in Olympia)". The same thing with trying it for sort of.medical reasons, cause the stomach, whatever. That was the excuse that Made up later and Nirvanas managment went for it when the rumours about his heroin use started in early 1992. I do think that Courtney fucked him up in a many ways, and she was a junkie. The heroin binge increase in Cobain with her, and that was his downfall.
