They look so different here. Got a bit mental at the end. Dude nearly knocked himself out with his guitar!! Was that *Foxy*from Wayne's World.? What was he called in that movie?? Garth???.. 👍✌️❤️
This video needs to be restoration to be HD or 4K
sir, thank so much for share this gem!
I love the journalistic cut "Well that was Nirvana...." while Kurt takes a bath in the drumset in the background
and Dave shouting "HI AXL"
"I've got two words for you, Pip...Marky Mark!"
@@GodLovesComics I know this is an older post, but I saw you left your comment only 3 days ago. Wheels are spinning, what am I not getting about your "Marky Mark" mention?
@@sturose509 Same guy just on my other account. I know my comment would be rather cryptic if you didn't listen to the final seconds of the video. I tend to think the uploader included it just for a laugh at how cheesy the presenters of these things always are 5:09
Don't worry, definitely not casting aspersions at Nirvana and this incredible performance.
Btw additional irony as I just noticed the time stamp is the same as the numbers in your username ;)
Love how he starts with Rape Me when they threatened them with heavy consequences if they did it. He sang it long enough to freak them out but not long enough to be cut off, Genius!!! What great and heavy sound from only three guys! And they sound as good live as on any album… that’s real talent 🤟🤟🤟
Yep, that was Cobain. Tell him NOT to do something and ... he shoots you the middle finger...and then smiles.
He was the king of trolling haha
I'm surprised they did that in 90s i mean today with all the woke bs
Kurt just wanted write and play music not be told what to do.
@@ivaerz4977 Didn't the doors fuck over Ed Sullivan in the 60's in front of the whole world?
I don't think people really understand why Kurt and Nirvana was such an important thing. Kurt represented every kid who was bullied, who was different, who was gay, who didn't want to conform. He wasn't a punk icon, he was all of us who didn't fit in. We didn't want to buy the best sport shoes, we didn't want to be heroes, we didn't want to be thanked for our service we just wanted to be. We just wanted to hang out with our friends, listen to records and play video games without being given endless shit. We were cool just being. Kurt Cobain is my hero for accidentally allowing us to just be who we are. Thank you Kurt.
Very true!!
Yes. As an autistic lesbian I feel seen in nirvanas music
Kurts the love @@livvyyyyyyyyyyy
@@Ah__ah__ah__ah. ❤️❤️❤️
Kurt was an LGBT supporter and a pro-choice advocate. Some of the money he makes goes to organizations that support pro-choice and he was sent death threats by "pro-lifers". Reminds me of what that British comedian said after hearing a man enters an abortion clinic with a gun on his hand "how can you be pro-life and shoot someone?"
I can’t even imagine anything today being that good. So glad I grew up with this.
Except the foos
@@adamj5832 Nirvana was before the FOOs ? Nirvana started the great 90's music. Loved it.
Dude that's just lazy, there's LOADS of great bands playing today. Get off your couch, throw away those rose-tinted glasses you're looking at the past in, and go see some gigs FFS.
I grew up with this too (I was in my 20s during the 90s) so I'm no youngster. Believe it or not I saw Nirvana play, the one and only time they toured Australia, and rather disappointingly they were TERRIBLE. Kurt was so off his face he spent half the gig lying on his back with inane screeching noises coming from his guitar, and they tried to play too loud and overloaded the PA system TWICE. Dave was a monster on the drums but otherwise it was pretty average.
There's heaps of great bands just killing it live today, the music industry has changed so much now that playing gigs is pretty much the only way a band can earn an income so they give it EVERYTHING. That and audio tech has improved so much now that pretty much every band you see sounds fantastic. Stop living in the past and go experience NOW.
@@woopimagpie that’s a stretch.
@@hgh5762 Most metal bands playing today absolutely SLAUGHTER Nirvana live. I'm guessing the last gig you went to was 30 years ago eh.
They sent us all home from school the day he died. They could see how tragic and impactful it was on all the students. I’ll always appreciate and remember that.
yeah im gonna call cap on that
@@guityler2 I second that
@@guityler2 maybe but I don’t think anyone that says cap was there to witness 9/11 and that kind of marked the entire desensitization of the country so when your parents talk about crying when they found out a musician or celebrity died let alone blew their head off so maybe cap but maybe fax
@@milkmansada I'm going to choose to believe our prior generation weren't a bunch of babies that couldn't handle their favourite celebrity dying.
@@milkmansada I'm squarely genX and I don't believe for a second that any school sent anyone home when that manic-depressive offed himself. It was not that big of a deal, honestly. All that happened was a bunch of trendy schoolgirls did crap with candles. It was mega-lame. I just laughed.

Right, I was thinking I couldn’t believe he didn’t go straight thru the skin.
He used his Sticks upside down, to get a Bigger Sound. Not sure on the Size, possibly 2B.
I will never forget this band, I love how Kurt changed the lyrics to a couple of lines... and the song still rocked
I remember the day Kurt Cobain died, I was still in the womb, but my mom temporarily birthed me so I could watch the news bulletin and grieve with the rest of the world. She put me back in and I was properly born a couple of months later
what a saint of woman
I was in an induced coma, and when Kurt died, they brought me out of it so I could watch the news. 📺 After that, I told them to just let me die, and they said OK. They tricked me and comatosed me again, but 3 months later, when I came out of it, I learned all the doctors and staff had un-alived themselves because of Kurt, and there were no more familiar faces there. 😵🥴

Saw them for the In Utero Tour, on February 18th 1994, it was the very first show I ever went to, and a gift for my 14th birthday (born in 1980, the 24th of February).
Now I'm 43 years old... Damn, I hate to get old. But I am SO glad I could be able to see them live. Less than two months before it became impossible...
Thank you Dad, that gift was a total blast! And RIP, both Kurt, and Dad, both gone on April 1994/2021. I hate April month since 1994, even more since 2021.
The show is with you forever.
Good Gide!
Bro, we have the exact birth date ^^
What a fantastic story my friend, I'm Brazilian, much younger than you, but I discovered Nirvana when I was at school, and I've been listening to them for 15 years. A timeless sound, I wish I had lived to see them
@@markmnorcalIt's on YT too! Audio only, unfortunately, but better than nothing! Use Nirvana+Grenoble+1994 keywords to find it. And you'll hear the best dad/son moment I ever lived; the most beautiful day of my life, the best hour and a half from my entire existence. Engraved (almost) forever on the Net. You'll find my comments too, relating the same story as above, with more details if I remember well.
Dana Carvey looked so proud of himself after delivering the "Now, for all your lawn care needs, its Nirvana!" a line, that they undoubtedly told him to say.

@@UltraZombie He was always and will forever be a usurper bastard. I lost because I did not heed the wisdom from my mother and members of the Witan to wait to raise a fyrd to encircle and defeat the Norman Orcs.
Wow, I did not need to be reminded that this is 30 years old. Time flies man. That said I agree with you totaly, I just love their music.
I love how the sloppiness of Nirvana was literally part of what made them so good. Kurt messes with the lyrics, the bass cuts out, Krist hits himself on the head with his bass and runs off stage, and Kurt kicks him in the ass... What else? Who cares? It's a great performance anyway.
That was Nirvana in a nutshell and what made the great
Well said. If you want to hear how good the band can be, then listen to the album. But if you wanted to see a crazy show with the band's personality at the forefront, live was the way to go
kurt didn't kick him
id add that it's pretty hilarious to see stage diving at a MTV music awards performance too.... can't even imagine that in today's pathetic music world
@@brianjensen7977 yeah he did, it's well known. stop arguing and take the L
The end is amazing people flying, bass guitars flying, bassist getting knocked out. Insane
I cant imagine how much that must have hurt catching a bass with your face like that.
Dave is a BEAST on drums and Kurt was amazing with his special voice ... those were the times when being a teenager were great every day
I loved it. A great time to be young
This is NUCLEAR. What an amazing, amazing voice and overall sound.
Im glad you found and enjoyed it
How 3 guys get such a heavy, thick sound is insane....With his voice they were essentially a 4-piece....Love this...
Great comment !
for me its a lot how grohl played the drums, its like you know a nirvana song just by hearing the drum-part, even if you arent a drummer or musician. you instantly know what song it is. guess thats also why they´re very present in every mix of their songs. that lithium chorus bass/drumplay is incredible dynamic and awesome :D
@@frustmetal wut.. wut… wut about Chad channing…? 🥺😭
Boss DS-1 pedal
Grohl's "high" tom is a super deep 14 inches. All equipment is proportioned similarly.
Man this will always be my favorite version of Lithium. They sound so raw in this version and I can’t imagine stage diving has ever taken place at a VMA performance before this. Crazy
Rest In Peace Kurt! What a performance from one of the best bands ever!
Watched this live. Krist the bass player actually threw his bass guitar in the air and missed catching it and it hit him in the head and literally knocked him down and almost out. He gets up and falls twice. Btw the reason for their performance (ironically playing and tearing the guitar, amplifier cabinets and drums) was they were told they couldn't play “Ra_pe Me”. Kurt was insulted. So he started playing it anyway!! This was controversial at the time. Us kids loved it.
Thanks for watching and commenting Johnny
They were told Rape Me would get them shut down immediately. So just to fuck with the producers they did the opening chords and lyrics. Gotta remember that Rape Me was not released until In Utero over a year later.
@@Rockyinlp Thanks for the backstory guys, I was wondering what was up with that. I thought he might be fucking with the crowd, but that is even better.
And don't forget, too, that as they were walking off stage, Dave gets on the mic and starts yelling "Axl, hi Axl!" (this is while the woman is talking at the end). This was because Axl Rose and Kurt almost got into a fight backstage earlier.
@@rockettcustoms6266 obvious auto incorrect function lol ty
Not one of us out there thought for a second that this incredible era of music would ever end.
Damn.
It was like a flash of light too, such a short lived era of music that shone the brightest
to bad rap killed it now we are in one of the worst eras of music and have been since about 2008 or so.
@@zachemorgan not true at all. You are completely oblivious to how music has always worked. Do you even realize that this is exactly what people said about the grunge era? “GrUnGe kiLLeD rOcK aNd rOlL, *we’re in the worst era of music* ” . “RoCK aNd rOLl kiLLeD JaZz, *we’re in the worst era of music* ” . Do you realize what people said about Jazz? Etc etc… music is constantly changing and evolving and just because you don’t like a particular genre that’s mainstream doesn’t mean that music in general is worse. Nirvana was mainstream and motherfuckers would say the same shit, *”worst era of music”* Sure it has gotten easier for people to make music but that’s how it’s always been with technological developments. Motherfuckers 30 years ago would have their brains explode if they heard what kind of sounds we create today with technology. It’s how it has ALWAYS worked. Fuckin old head is what you are and if you can’t realize that you’re straight up dumb
@@zachemorgan not long after KC was gone, Jewel showed up with her apathy music. Downright boring.
It's ashame. I blame us 80's babies for being brainwashed by MTV and my generation eating up whatever was cool or what was no longer cool in a span of one decade. Looking back it's hard to believe Nirvana existed in the same decade with Brittany fucking spears????
Not many artists nowadays have songs that can match the quality of Nirvana's songs. They sound great, energetic, serious, relaxing and funny at the same time
После нирваны ничего до сих пор не произошло с музыкой , никто так и не взорвал музыкальный мир как они , втроём вообще как такое возможно не пойму , это было круто , я помню как ждал каждый альбом ампладжет вообще доканал , каждую песню просто в ином цвете представили , иногда неверится , что это они сами сочиняли , как будто какие то композиторы для них ночами не спали , nirvana огонь , эту песню услышал на дискотеке первый раз , пошел денег занимать чтоб еще поставили , просто офигел от гитары .
I felt exactly the same.
Это божественное вмешательство.
every heard of a little someone named Taylor Swift? Cmon now
My favourite thing about Kurt was his chord progressions- so unique and weird; they almost don't make any sense until his vocal melody lays over top.
The melody of Lithium is really beautiful and really hard to create whit that progression what a genius Kurt was
"In Bloom" is a perfect example of that. The chord progression in that song is unique. Not to mention that the guitar "solo", while being purposely abstract and probably intended to be noise instead of a solo, works and fits perfectly.
He might not have been the ideal guitarist in terms of technicality or tightness, but I still feel like he put a lot of careful thought into the music he wrote.
Nothing 'unique' about Nirvana's sound.
It's all basic Washington State music that all the bands were doing 1985 to 1995.
@@thesecondRUclips I did not say anything about the overall sound of the band- I was referring to Kurt's chord progressions.
The chords are the same shit 'Green River' and the other bands was doing back in 1985.
0:13, Kurt starts playing ‘Rape Me’’. Nirvana had originally planned to play this but MTV forbade it and told them they’d be cut if they did - hence the band’s surprise. Apparently they were seconds away from being cut.
they did a little trolling
@@sexopimbada the whole performance is a troll they weren’t supposed to play lithium either lol
Kurt Cobain was the '90s version of Jim Morrison. When Jim sang "girl could we get much higher" live on TV it had a very similar reaction.
Y ahora MTV se ha vuelto una porqueria
Chickened out in other words
Oh the 90's....how I miss you. I was 19 when this was recorded and SO full of life!
Gosh Kurt sounds so good here! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 Especially the "Yeah"s, so powerful! Goosebumps ❤️❤️❤️
What a voice.
Makes me hate Courtney Love for killing him
@@YourGrace_06 so true, that bitch gonna get away with it forever unfortunately 😡😪
It’s no wonder why Kurt and Nirvana are remembered by so many people when they have this level of talent, it’s such a shame Kurt passed away so soon as he had so much more to give this world but it makes what we have from him so much more precious in a way that only happens after a person has passed away.
Dana Carvey?
@@YourGrace_06 Don't be dense. If you buy the garbage on Tom Grant's site, there's little hope for you. You'll end up a flat Earther, too.
As a 17 year old I’m 1991 when I first ran into Nirvana, the thing that struck me the most about their music was how they would mix these melodic verses with powerful choruses. It was like sweet and salty. It was like hot and cold. It was like smooth and crunchy. The contrast made each song so much better.
Ever heard of Pixies?
A lot of influences in their music and besides that, they were amazing in what they do... love Nirvana🤘🤘❤
Ever heard of meat puppets?@@canobenitez
I love this analogy the songs are just like that ❤
the loud soft dynamic.
This beautiful man was my Jesus. Now he is a sunbeam. Kids today wear the t-shirt, he was dead before they were born , he will never be forgotten. Love you Kurt x
Nirvana didn't need MTV, MTV needed Nirvana.
I saw this live on TV! Very memorable.
It certainly was, the highlight of the evening.
You're a f*cking legend
Me too. It was awesome to my teenage mind and still is to my 46 year old mind
“Live,” on TV? You saw it on TV. I just saw it on RUclips. Great rhythm and payoffs in the song. Kurt, had an awful childhood, it’s no surprise he would take drugs. Sad.
Me too... I live in Indonesia, and I watched this live on my campus TV during recess. what a great experience to witness this rock history. I remember after Kurt slammed in to Dave's drum kit, and then Dave yelled "where's Axl!" repeatedly. made my friend whose a G'n R fanboy pissed himself :D
This song was released on July 13th of 1992 being 11,190 days old and it being 31 years old, it still is one of the greatest songs Nirvana has ever performed.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment D.S. 🙂
wow I feel old
Released in 1991 November I think
my sixth birthday. i remember my dad waiting for it to be in stock at the record shop
You may be wrong with the date of release. It was released in 1992 as single, but was already on Nevermind, wich was released in 09/1991.
Haha, Kurt leading off with Rape Me just to spite corporate, Krist beaning himself with his own bass so bad he falls over, Dave just killing the drumset. You guys were awesome. RIP Kurt - 30 years since we lost you man. Miss you.
I remember watching this live. Such an amazing moment and they sound great. Whoever mixed this knew what he was doing. Anyone that watches this and doesn't think Nirvana was a great band either has really bad taste is just a hater.
Apparently MTV nearly shit themselves when the band started “Rape Me” lol. Nice to see this again.

@@borrowedbody5409 yep

Dave beating those drums like they owed him money. lol...Remember watching this like it was yesterday. Miss the 90's
I was 15 yrs old when this album dropped. Music was almost finished with the hair bands and nirvana pretty much threw the dirt on the coffin. Although I’ve circled back to appreciate all of the genres, this album was and still is a masterpiece. Gotta say though, 80’s was the absolute best decade to grow up as a kid.
Dave is awesome on the drums 👍🏻🎸 Nirvana were something magical. I miss the 90s I wish I could have seen them. I did see..after Kurt passed..I got to see Bush, RHCP Velvet Revolver..they were awesome.
Dave Grohl looks so so young. He is going HAM on those drums too. Love it.
Dana Carvy was damn young back then but so was I.
Looks like that drummer could start a band and play every instrument
@@millsy5326 release a bands two best albums pretty much recording it himself.
His attack was so aggressive, that it would have been easy to mistake him for angry...but then you'd look at his face, and shoulders...and they'd be completely relaxed while beating the crap out of those drums. lol
the best performance of that night on MTV
I love how when Nirvana is literally destroying the set, they cut to a reporter and you can still see Kurt on the mega screen messing with the drums
There will never be another band like nirvana. Ever.
The sheer visceral power of Nirvana, wow! Such a loss, so very sad, Kurt really was something special and a true original. In a sea of subsequent imitators, his voice still stands out, just as raw and beautiful as ever, a real force of nature! X
Dave always gave drumming his all. Same when he was in QOTSA too. Amazing musician.
Watched this live back in the day! Thanks Kurt for the greT music and long lasting memories
30+ years later and i'm still waiting for a successor to his melodic genius
“I’ve got two words for you Pip …. Marky Mark !” After watching such a great performance, being ambushed by that gem of a segue just cracked me up. My eyes were watering. I love the 90’s

Just wow. Great reminder of how powerful a live act they were.
A legendary performance. I remember seeing this (probably) on a delayed telecast in Australia and had this recorded. Not sure if I still have the VHS tape, but at the time I replayed it pretty much every day for six plus months.
It's a shame this video doesn't capture Dave Grohl at the microphone calling out "Hi Axl, hi Axl - where's Axl? Hi Axl!" because it was pure gold (along with Kurt's playing of Rape Me and Novoselic nearly taking his own head off.
As far as performances go, this had everything.
Why was he calling out Axl Rose? Was there a beef between the bands back then? I'm not familiar with this.
@@chosen_remnant yes. Backstage Kurt made a joke like "Hey Axl will you be Frances's Godfather?" and he didn't respond and just pointed at Kurt & Courtney and mean mugged them. So Dave jokingly yelled "Hi Axl" a bunch of times after Krist stumbled off stage.
@@mikenoface were you there or something? How do you know such details? Thanks for filling me in.
@@chosen_remnantwell, Nirvana refused to tour with Guns N’ Roses because Kurt believed they were sexist or whatever, so axl took it serious and started poking at Kurt and Courtney by saying stuff about their baby, and since they were both here at the vmas, that’s when Kurt tried to spit on axls piano but turns out it wasn’t his, it was Elton John’s and krist got into a fist fight with one of the band members.
I wish they would have recorded this in studio. I love this Morrissey style version of Kurt’s singing. It’s phenomenal!
The reason why he did it is funny, but it turned out absolutely amazing!
The swings in this song. Captures bipolar stuff so much
