@@Dhdhdyqha Not really... and who fucking cares anyway? This is not a punk song by any stretch. I don't think you have a solid grasp of what punk rock is. Grunge is a more nebulous term.
@@piai I also think is from Dave grohl come as you are was written (probally ) in 1990 - 1991 the last session with chad didn’t included come as your are tho
It was on a Cassete tape I sold it to him. He went to my school. My Uncle gave me the Cassete for Christmas last year. His brother was in Middle School Band with Kurt so he knew him a long time.
Most likely did throw that in this version, Thats why i LOVE listening to the demos to see what other takes on the songs they tried out and all the lyrics and riffs, But riffs are usually the same but more distorted then the original.
This is so awesome... The guitar... it's so beautiful. Talking about tHINGS IN LIFE people don't get to put out... If you don't think it's Kurt singing, try Do Re Mi; that's definitely Kurt. I forgot what proof I once would say just by mere words. You can see that it sounds better because it was in production and not repeated the same way over and over as done for Nevermind.
Hundred Yep, "as a known enemy" just makes more sense. Just like they changed it to "I'm so lonely, that's ok I shaved my head" in the demo is "I'm so lonely, that's ok I saved your head." lol Makes much more sense. Also makes the killed you and not going to cry stuff in the chorus make more sense too. lol
+WizzleThump I think he shaved his head when he lived at his buddy's house after being kicked out of his mom's. Forget his name. Anyway, they were religious, hence the "I found God" line. Says it's roughly about them in the Azerrad bio.
+WizzleThump " Cobain acknowledged that the song was possibly inspired in part by the time he spent living with his friend Jesse Reed and his born-again Christian parents. He explained to Azerrad, "I've always felt that some people should have religion in their lives [. . .] That's fine. If it's going to save someone, it's okay. And the person in ['Lithium'] needed it."[11] " there ya go punk
DUDE, I have to keep listening to the beginning. I love and also know 3 different ways to pluck the notes to Come as You Are on guitar. This is a new one: how he does a hammer-on for the very beginning. I made up one of my own after how he did one repetition at MTV Unplugged for Come as You Are. It's hard to explain, but I actually know the: original one... and now 3 ways to have fun with the tempo, but still staying on beat.
I loved this version of "Come As You Are". The Slide Show is great, depicts fun and many sides of Nirvana. They were, simply put just "Badass" and I love it.
the sound of colitis. painful melodic groans of haunting precursors and the eyes of the guy beside him say everything and i swear that i dont have a gun
Them drums_^^_ them drums!!!!!!!! Gosh, krist, Dave and kurt made magic when they played.....I've honestly never heard something bad by them..the Brazil show was sad, and wild for what was going on behind the scenes. .but wasn't "bad" musically per say.....thanks for sharing this...really reaches out and gets you, gets you moving, bouncing and rocking around before you eve realize it ...I sure hope kurt found peace where ever he is..but I so wish it wasn't in the way he chose to look for it
+Justmiss jamey Yea Nirvana have never made anything bad at all im a artist my self who plays punk/grunge with my band .. I listen to nirvana becuase it makes me happy and if nirvana wouldn't playd and Kurt didn't do this music i would be lost :( . Im a sad artist if we say so becuase people have betreathed me as a Slave and as i were a demon who scared people and my parents dont care and a girl i were in love in she dumpd me and luaghed at me and then kicked me. And that made me who i am. I hope you dont mind me for telling it but your right nirvana have never ever made anything bad or worthless.!!!.!!!.!!!.

Amazing, not sure where you got this but i love it, great vid to go with it. I can feel and hear the true grunge and hate in his voice. AMAZING the rock gods shall shine upon you
This song, along with About a girl and Radio friendly unit shifter, probably my favourite Nirvana songs. I'm probably forgetting some tho..a bit drunk. spank through,lounge act,drain you ,rape me, old age
it actually is him singing, there's a demo like that of Lithium and Sappy also. He's doing it half-assed to not blow his voice for the next take. I was very confused first time I heard it.
I've got an intresting story about this demo. I saw it first when i downloaded a utorrent version of come as you are from one of those websites that provide piple with an ability to illegaly download songs for free without knowing it's not the studio version. And i really liked it! It stays on my phone for 1.5yrs noe
@mojo9o I wonder if Nirvana could've worked with playing live like this... just kind of like replaying their own songs like Jazz: always improvising. Even jazz gets repetitive on the improvisitional side, but maybe they'd pull out better vibes out of their ass doing it like that... it starts with faith... like when you first learn to sing and play guitar; it's scary but it eventually comes together.
Hey guys! I´ve been listening to all the nirvana demos here in youtube but I´d love to get this tracks in mp3. Can anybody help me?? Sorry for my horrible English. thank you!!!!
@@BrodyLuv2 1) this is a 10 year old comment directed at someone who likely doesn't use the platform anymore. I still use the platform though. 2) Kurt never sang the note that high, regardless of the tuning. That's some super high falsetto stuff. 3) the entire track lacks a dropout at the "high note", indicating strong mic saturation. He probably just sung to close to the mic on that note and it distorted the monitors used to amplify his voice. Regardless, he is not singing a C6.

the lounge act boombox rehearsal is awesome

I love how they played in E standard in all of these demos. It gives them all a super lively sound. It's like a B side to every single song

@@lazarjankovic4852oh well whatever nevermind
This sets every part of my soul on fire
Maroon Blossom well said
one of the rare times Kurt actually uses a little vibrato
Thats a chorus with high rate
@@emiliojaquez5714 I think he was referring to vocal vibrato though. During "memoria"
@@Mansplainer452he used vibrato in his vocals almost every time he sustained a single note.
I know the official lyrics are "memoria" but it sounds like he throws some "Enemia" (Enemy) and a "halleluiah" in there. Maybe some other things too.
sounds like chads drumming.....
Not really
I mean it kind of does it has a lot more fills the most of Dave’s songs
I think this played by Dave Grohl..
He probably is since
@@piai I also think is from Dave grohl come as you are was written (probally ) in 1990 - 1991 the last session with chad didn’t included come as your are tho
So rare it's on With The Lights out!!! Damn man must've been a tough find.

Melodic hooks and a great voice.
Yeah, demos are amazing because they're pure. However, the studio versions are (most of the time) an an artists vision for the song.
In love with the way he drags out the last lyric at 1:33
yeah, he does that a little bit in unplugged too!
I love this version as heck
Ooooh i'm diggin this! One of my top Nirvana songs. I LOVE listening to the demos of their songs I'll tell ya what.

Dave Ghrol's face is very different in some of the pictures

kurt was blond in his childhood and teenager, I think he just changed the hair roots color for his style/aesthetic.
his hair was blonde during childhood and brown during adulthood

thats RARE version if you didnt see,..I m 100% sure thats Kurt singing...

great song, but it's not "rare" if it's on Sliver which is quite readily available in most music shops.
