As a black woman the NIRVANA Teen Spirit woke my inner grudge up as a teenager!! Kurt Cobain was EVERYTHING and this song I played to death with all the BASS in the Hood and Burbs coming up!!!! Ayyyyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeee 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾
Yep! Same!
😂😂
Me too. Totally didnt care if the hood was confused
@@kimberlyfarrow4339 😂
Me toooo!!!!
I'm 52. Kurt would be older than me. When I told my 22 year old daughter that. She lost it. Yes dear, Gen X aint playin.
He would be 53.
When kids realize their parents were cooler than they ever will be.
Gen X STAND UP! 💯
In 2004, someone pointed out at me that it had been 10 years since Kurt died. I vehemently denied it. In 2014, it was 20 years. I wept for my lost youth. I graduated high school when he left us.
I remember where I was when I heard he'd died.
Dr. Dre said this is his favorite all time rock band.
rap producers, musicians, artists in general were heavily influenced by Nirvana
He sure did! I saw that documentary. That was one of my favorite parts of the doc. He starts playing Nirvana and rocks out. I was raised on Nirvana and Dr. Dre (rock and hip hop from the 90s) untouchable era
For me it’s Alice In Chains, STP, then nirvana
@@YomamaAhippo Ewww.
I'm a huge hip hop head, but there is no denying that Nirvana killed it in the 90's.
I was strictly hip hop when this came out. I was in 8th grade and I just fucking loved this shit. Good music is good music. No matter the age, or genre
Facts!!!
For only 2 years as well
And to think hip hop, esp RAP was at its peak in early to mid 90’s...
I enjoyed hip hop and alternative growing up. One of my friends was a great guitarist and he always turned me on to good shit.
1 billion. I am 46 yrs young. Kurt Cobain and Nirvana captured my generation. Imagine every stereo every car rocking this.
Great times they were!
I hear you. 53 and still go nuts over Nirvana.
truth!!
Same here! I'm 46 as well and this song changed my life when I was 18! RIP Kurt...
I'm 38 and they are still one of my top 5 favorites. Rip Kurt
Not classic rock, dudes. It's the birth of Grunge. 🙂
🤣
BART
Grunge existed even before Smells Like Teen Spirit.
@@Aromatic-ring yeah but this was the song that really brought grunge into the mainstream.
Or better known as the drummer on songs for the deaf. His best since Nirvana.
alice n chains brought grunge to the mainstream, nirvana came after that
It’s hard to let the younger generation understand the impact this song had. We hadn’t heard anything like this before, and they were dope asf too.
Exactly! Youngsters can't understand what's so groundbreaking about this now, but at the time it really rocked my world hard.
I couldn't stop listening to Nevermind the whole weekend it came out, going absolute apeshit with joy that such a thing existed, and 'in my time!'
Kurdt was 3 years older than I. He was like the second coming of Jim Morrison or something.
RIP Kurdt
I always felt like their debut impact was similar to GnR's debut impact. "You can't do that." Watch them turn the music on its ears.
@@jessicashenefield1546 I loved GnR when they were brand new... that was my best year of high school. I still love Appetite and most of Lies and a piece or two off illusion, but the bloom was off that rose long ago... I don't deny that they had an impact, but I personally never felt the same level of...
... of what? ... that I felt with Nirvana.
I just remember thinking Nirvana was amazing, mind-blowing, earth-shattering.
I remember thinking GnR were kick ass.
Again, mileage varies, that's just me.
@@kfred5860 I can agree with that!
I was still rather sheltered when GnR hit so for me it was actually peripheral (dancing in a friend's living room to Welcome to the Jungle), but some article I happened upon sometime in the aughts had talked about what a game changer they had been to the industry when they hit the scene. It stuck with me and made me appreciate them a tad more. (Wish I could remember any specific points for you--or even where the article might be found...)
But Nirvana. #hawtdayum Where GnR may have shaken up hard rock, Nirvana mainstreamed a whole new genre. So I guess, upon midnight philosophizing, that my original statement is more along the lines of folks trying to shrug each of them off, or sweep them under a rug. Both blew through the door. Nirvana happened to take the whole wall (maybe the building) with it.
One of my favorite rock songs
This song came out when my son was about 4 years old. In the car he always asked for “The Hello Song” and would rock back and forth in his car seat for the whole song- toddler head banging😄
My Nephew called it 'Mashed patatos' 🥰
I can picture that 😃. Priceless 😆
That's cute!
Sounds like my childhood. I was 4 year Nevermind came out. Loved listening to rock in the car with my dad. I remember being shocked as a somewhat older child learning that the Beatles are rock. Don't get me wrong, I love em, but Nirvana is the truest form of rock in my mind. Everything else pales in compare.
I was probably around your age when this came out and it was like a musical pandemic. We went from what was essentially a decade of pop rock and pop metal to grunge becoming the popular music in like a week. It was pretty insane.
Yeah, that's right! It was such a change from what came before and set the tone for a whole new musical genre and style. It voiced the angst us youth at the time were feeling.
Same. I remember it. Seattle became THE hot spot. Plaid over shirts and hole ridden jeans dominated.
I was in high school and it was a balm to my pop hating soul.
WRONG. Nirvana was THE END OF THE SCENE. (Check out the band Big Black doing the song Passing Complexion London 1987 , The Replacements 1981 at the 7th Street Entry on YT ) Kurt Cobain was influenced by all the great underground 80s bands and he was lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time ....once Nirvana hit the radio and went mainstream the whole scene died. Kurt knew it too. Why do you think he was so miserable? That who ' grunge ' scene stuff was a joke. And I like Nirvana!
@@tinatee6334 i like pop. But that right there what you said was HILARIOUS. 😂🤣😂
The video that single handedly ended the 80s.
Lucky Cat well, the fact that it was 1991 did too. Grunge ended hairbands dominating mtv
Good point. For me, the 80's ended in 1988, with Fast Car, by Tracy Chapman. It seemed to signal the end of one thing, and the beginning of something new.
Jane S. I feel so out of it. What were hairbands? Bands with big hair? Who is Lucky Cat? I have heard of Nirvana, but this isn’t half bad! Thing is, a baby man came out of my body that year and sort of dominated my experience of it. We watched Desert Storm on CNN during the 3 a.m. feedings but the world didn’t otherwise penetrate our little home. :)
@@lisaschuster9187 Hair Bands did have big hair! Lots of hairspray, headbands,glitter,long earrings,ex : Poison, Ratt etc. (Lucky Cat is the OP on this thread) I remember watching Desert Storm on tv too.
Sulla Felixxx, I think it was the first time we have 24-hour cable news. There was a cartoon in the New Yorker that wouldn’t make sense now: A guy is looking out his picture window and the scene has CNN’s logo in the corner. :)
EVERYBODY pays the proper respect to the legendary NIRVANA. Every race, every creed, every generation. ALWAYS, AND FOREVER. ETERNAL RESPECT.
Kurt would be pissed this is his most popular song on RUclips with over a billion views now 😂😂😂
@@B-902 There’s a reason for the popularity: it struck a chord with many people. I don’t think he’d have cared about the phenomenon beyond that.
You are so right. When I think of the 90's this song is the song.
My favorite song before bring me to life replaced it
@@sherryhoward7298 Evanescence? My roommate listened to that track on repeat for a month or two solid!
This song is one of those rare songs, I knew exactly where I was when I heard it and I froze.
Same here! I was in my early teens and remember exactly where I was and who I was with. It changed everything.
Me too. I was with my boyfriend in a metal club in Berlin. The DJ played this song and i was like: "Bang!" Oh my god!
Two days later i went to a record shop and bought it. I still own it and listening to it from time to time....
Same! The other was Metallica's Enter Sandman!
I agree, I was 16 years old , and said “What Fu$& is this?”
Me too, i will never forget it, it was like hamelin flutist effect haha
I was a freshman in college when this came out, this video premiered at midnight on MTV's Headbanger's Ball, because they had no idea where to put it, it didn't really fit any genre. I was with my soon to be boyfriend in the tv room (yes, dorms had tv rooms with like tiered carpeted seating where you gather to watch away games and stuff, this was before everyone had a tv in their rooms) and we were just dumbstruck watching it wide-eyed. It ended and we turned to each other and were like 'what the HELL was THAT!?'
Then like a week later everyone was running around in flannel shirts and ripped jeans and combat boots and grunge was everywhere.
And the post punk scene was officially over and ruined! What had been a cool scene for a decade had been ruined by time and the success of Nirvana. And Kurt probably wished he could go back in time a year to playing gigs that paid the rent and his old life. Nirvana had become the biggest travelling puppet show of the season...and it was truly sad to see for anyone that liked Nirvana at all beforehand.
Beth Van Headbanger’s ball! Those were the good ole days!
We're there same age, I remember distinctly my freshman year of college when this came out. But I was in Seattle so the flannel scene was definitely already full tilt. Haha
HA yes to the TV rooms.
I was a sophomore in college and I worked at a music store. When this album came out, along with Pearl Jam 10, everything changed overnight and it was incredible.
The drummer is Dave Grohl the lead singer of Foo Fighters..
"Best of You" by the Foo Fighters would be a song I'd like to see a reaction to.
Prince made me a fan of the Foo Fighters (Superbowl 2007).. Dave Grohl made me a fan of Nirvana
@jay coopz Iv'e watched a few reactions to this song, mostly by people much younger than me (55 years old). Not in one reaction does Dave's/Foo Fighter's name get talked about. I'm a Metal Head and while I like some Nirvana. I think it's great Dave went on to do his own thing.
@@laudanum669 as do I I'm also a Metal Head...Fear Factory Friday today...lmao
Please do Everlong by the Foo Fighters. ❤❤❤❤
I still get chills. I was in a dance club the first time I heard this, and the floor went nuts. I witnessed an immediate takeover and reveled in that bliss the entire song. Damn, the '90s are missed and so is Kurt. I am so glad I got to enjoy this era.
Everybody started wearing Doc Marten's and Flannel!!!!
Kurt Cobain didn’t wear doc martens though. He wore converse type of shoes.
News flash..we were already wearing docs and flannies here in Oz years before. It was called punk!
I'm 50 yrs old and I was living in Downtown Seattle when this hit. I was 21 yrs old. We blew the roof off 🔥🔥🔥
Yesss, from another Shay!
Shea
@@michalsm6085 Hi Shea! We rock!
I was 21. Not in Seattle, but blew my mind. Whenever I hear this, still rocks. My 13 yo son even thinks this is cool.
Were you among the lucky ones present at the O.K. Hotel, where this debuted? I was a young mom, and didn't get out much then. Would have loved to experience that moment!
@@jtoland2333 No was not that lucky but I do remember when bands like Sound Garden and Mud Honey ...Alice in Chains used to play at Rock Candy.
I cannot hear this music without headbanging. Of course, I always end up pulling something, because I'm 40 and no longer a teenager, but still.
Same 😂
Same!!
Lol try being 74 yr old widow , only Now I bang in my bed, feet moving out in time...
Right there with you. This and Korn's Blind. *Rocks out, jumps around " my back, call the chiropractor"
Live on!!!!
I feel bad for the kids who weren’t alive then to experience nirvana in all its glory. So privileged to have been a teen at that time.
Love how open you both are to experiencing new genres and generations of music and seeing how no matter the genre or generation a great song is a great song that anyone can appreciate.
Absolutely agree!
Throw in some Pearl Jam, Smashing Pumpkins, Janes Addiction & early Red Hot Chili Peppers
JANE'S ADDICTION!!!!!!
Kimmy Klo7 pulp
Offspring
@@ryndudley2242 PULP!
and Radiohead
Watch their unplugged set - back when MTV still had music ... it’s simply beautiful
This song was everywhere... Kurt Cobain owned Generation X.
And gen Y! ✌🏾 Us early 1980's babies didn't grow up in a digital age ( learning to type on typewriters) but definitely don't fit into the gen X stereotype! I remember pinching my dad's flannel shirt, buying a pair of cherry Doc Martin's and that became my uniform lol
etaize anstis I actually googled the years because it didn’t make sense that you and I are a few years apart at most and u have a different generation label than me. (Apparently X is 65-80 and Y is 81-96) I also grew up in the 80s had the docs and flannel shirts and chains.. guess ya learn something new every day because google also called y’all Millennials.. and I woulda never called an 80s child a Millennial...
@@dammitmandy1166 the 5 years either side of the cut off is a sub generation called Xennials.
Most important album in my whole life.
This album changed the world.
"Classic" rock is considered more 60s-70s. This here is definitive of Grunge rock.
Well I think you could include 80s into classic rock. But I’m just nitpicking lmao.
A flood of feelings rush back when I hear this song. I was 15 when it was released and it was everything...anthem for us GenXers
Dude... no. Ramones and acdc were the theme for genX most of us were finishing college when this came out in 1991
Jane S. I hear you but I’m also GenX born in ‘76 and this song was an anthem for people in my age group. We’re allowed to have different anthems considering our Generation spans from the early 60s to mid/late 70s
@@janes.1559 I was born in 69...a true GenXer and THIS song is definitely an anthem for Gen Xers
@@janes.1559 Gen Xers were born roughly 1965 to 1980. This means they ranged in age from about 11 to 26 in 1991. So a good bulk of Gen X would have been listening to this in their teens and early 20s. The Ramones and AC/DC started out in the '70s. I associate them more with late Boomers and early Gen Xers aka "Gen Jones."
@@Dee226 I was born in 74' and consider myself Gen Xer. But I can't relate to the 60's at all. We listened to ACDC from 88 to 92'. It was played at every basketball game.
Not classic rock, its Grunge, baby. The 90's, baby!
One of the most intense songs ever. No matter how many times you hear it, it grabs you and shakes you
“Come as You Are” is my favorite rock song ever Kurt Cobain was like no other RIP Kurt
Better late than never, boys! I like how y'all are self-educating on music. Keep going!
That is what I love about this channel
Yup but its not bad to like rap aswell
Listen to heart shape box by nirvana next. Kurt was very creative
Nirvana are legends.
Kurt cobain lead singer
All 90s rock was essentially an imitation or evolution of this song. All of it. Maybe the most impactful rock song of all time.
When this first came out this was a new genre called “Alternative” classic rock to us was like Led Zeppelin, queen, or Jimmy Hendrix etc. You guys should do one on Jimi Hendrix . A black musician that revolutionize Rock at the time .
Man, you should have seen them live. I was nearly crushed to death in the mosh pit, and it was still one of the best concerts of my life.
Nirvana - heart shaped box
And here we are.... The two brothers and myself banging our heads paying tribute to music!
My baby sister supposedly committed suicide about a month before Kurt Cobain. My heart was already bleeding when I was on my way home from work and heard about Kurt. I had to pull over. I've never cried so hard for 2 people in my life.
I'm so sorry 😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫
Excellent choice. This video brings me back to middle school. Who knew what we were on the brink of witnessing. His voice is like no other. His ability to live in the song he sings, is perfect. He is soul. He is music. It's a lovely thing. Rest in Peace Kurt Cobain.
Omg, this takes me back 30yrs. I'm officially old.😢😢😢😢😢
Lol, me too.
There were so many defining moments in music, up until the 2000s. After that I don't remember seeing a movement as widespread and monumental as those that happened in the 90's and before.
Voice of a generation
Imagine what he could of done if he was still here. RiP Kurt C.
Right. Kurt had such a nice voice and was a great writer.
I accidentally upvoted your comment. It had 69 votes. I took off my upvote so that it could remain at 69 upvotes, and yes I am a 45-year-old woman. I don’t give a fuck. :)
I feel that way about a lot of our greats that left before we were ready to let them go. Janis, Hendrix, Tupac, Kurt...
I’m a Xennial and lived through this, and this song still gives me chills every time
Kurt's voice gives me chills immediately, no matter the context.
I vaguely but vividly remember it, was born in 82.
"Xennial" - an awesome term!
Same. Xennial.
Same
Kurt Cobain RIP! Died April 5th 94. At 27, one of the many other greats from the 27 club
Discovered April 8. My 21st birthday.
Gen X's "I remember exactly where I was when..." Moment.
OMG when this came out, it blew everyone’s minds rock out wit your young selves, hell yeah💯
I remember when the song came out. It truly did change everything overnight.
Oh this song...blew everyone away when it hit the airwaves! Nirvana was a powerhouse of talent.
I can't recommend enough, also listen to Queensryche "Silent Lucidity" released in '90. That song will give you chills.
Kurt Cobain, a tortured genius, may he RIP. Thank you for this reaction.
Lithium and Come As You Are fantastic! Glad to see this reaction to Nirvana, Kurt Cobain lead singer but he passed on, nice reaction! 👍
Grunge changed the game. Nirvana captured the unrest of young people in the early 90’s. Beautiful. Sick. Awesome. Legend.
I was there. Yes it did.....
I am a Gen X'er, and it just tickles me to watch you two. This genre of music was actually not called rock. It was called "grunge." It started in Seattle, and it's popularity went nuclear. If you love Nirvana then listen to "Black" by Pearl Jam, "Mailman" by Soundgarden, "Rooster" by Alice in Chains, " Hunger Strike" by Temple of the Dog," Violet" by Hole. The possibilities are endless Luvs. Keep doing what you're doing. Stay safe.
Doll parts by Hole
@@margyritchie2702 love it. Xo
@@echoshawndee6898 Love doll parts! Excellent taste Echo!
Has anyone else mentioned Teen Spirit was a deodorant marketed to teenage girls in the early 90’s? Unless you know that, you’re not totally in on the raging commentary of capitalism, sexism and teen angst this song is as written to be.
He didn’t know about the deodorant until after the song was released. Kurt misunderstood the original phrase. His friend spray-painted “Kurt smells like Teen Spirit” on his wall because Kurt’s girl at the time used Teen Spirit deodorant and it was a joke that Kurt smelled like her. Kurt misunderstood the phrase and thought it was some sort of revolutionary statement and went on to write a song with that title.
True but it still rocked. That's why EVERYONE was listening to it back then. A billion views on a platform that wouldn't even exist until it was out of the zeitgeist for over a decade.
Teen Spirit by Mennen!
funsavoury I could be wrong, but that was the impetus for the song, but he actually wrote and recorded it after learning about her goofy reaction to his smell.
I remember the deodorant and the shampoo. It dried my hair up.
MTV unplugged where did you sleep last night is crazy good and can see how amazing his voice is.
My all time favorite "album" but my choice would be Lake of Fire ❤️
@@adventuresinlaurenland that one is fire also (dad joke)
@@cbruggeman25 😂😂😂
That whole album was 🔥! I love Plateau and Lake of Fire.
Nirvana and Pearl Jam! My favorites of the grunge movement!
there is something extremely beautiful in being able to see two young people listen to this for the first time and give it 10 out of 10. I even got a little choked up, not gonna lie. 🖤
Good to see some young dudes with open mind!! Im 40 yrs old and exploring the rap n hip hop
Please react to red hot chili peppers😀 (scar tissue,give it away,etc.)
YES!
Give it away!!!!
Under the Bridge 👍🏼
Yes
yes! Scar Tissue would be great or Other Side. Man, I drove eight hrs. to another city to see them as the venue was smaller so got better tickets. 2006 I think.
I was in high school when this song came out. Seattle grunge bands ruled the rock world. It changed every thing! The #1 song of the 90’s for sure!
This track is So iconic that I remember where I was when I first heard it and where I was the day Kurt died. I was working at a record store in the heart of Auckland and it was a busy, sad day. Peace & Love from Aotearoa/New Zealand.
You two are great. I wish everyone was as open minded. You are making a difference.
You guys know good music when you hear it.
They have no idea how much this song and band moved the needle of society and youth, music doesn’t do that today
How about “You Oughta Know” by Alanis Morisette
Yesssss!
Yesss
This right here!!! ^^^^
YES!!!!! Jagged Little Pill was IT!!!
omg yes!!!
Loving the enthusiasm and open mindedness to all music, and the conversations about music in the comments. This is the internet well purposed!
90s were a long time ago but it's still amazing how some people haven't heard of Nirvana or can't even pronounce it. Another thing is that this song is a classic all right but grunge isn't classic rock. Nirvana is a mental state of perfect peace and happiness to buddhists and Teen Spirit is a name of a deodorant Kurt Cobain's girlfriend found weird, like "What do teens smell like?". After a party she wrote on the wall "Kurt smells like teen spirit". Kurt didn't know Teen Spirit was a brand and took the sentence as a compliment, that he was an inspirational figure for young people.
i think he meant the song is a classic or the band is legendary
I always wondered where the title came from. 🧐
It's classic rock now! Adult contemporary even!
The 90s was YESTERDAY!
Senior year of college. I will never forget when this song crashed onto the scene. We had never heard anything of its ilk before--or really since. Absolute brilliance. The Nirvana exhibit at Seattle's Museum of Pop Culture is well worth the trip.
Can I like this a million times??
Just discovered these 2 lads. Their reactions are brilliant to songs that I take for granted and just presume everyone should have heard.
You want some of these
"we didn't start the fire" Billy Joel
"Rubberband man" the spinners
"Relax" Frankie goes to Hollywood
"Champagne Sypernova" Oasis
"Thunderstruck" ACDC
This is the anthem of a whole generation, people 😊 Listen to Oasis or Blur, grest British clssics!!
Oasis! Wonderwall ...💙💙💜💜💙👐🙌
BLUR ! YAAS!
Backing Blur!!!
Yes! Get some Champagne Supernova!!
Jacques Malan Same, Song 2 was more around my teenage years so I was more into it than Nirvana. Then I got into Nirvana when I was like 15-16 but Kurt was already dead by then. The second British Invasion was more my time: Oasis, Blur, The Verve...
It blows my mind that you have never heard that song before now. That's like me at age 36 never hearing Stairway to Heaven or Hard Days Night
@PurpleRose7777 Very true lol my parents listened to older country( George Jones, Tammy, Dolly, Merle, etc....) But it's still sad or hey maybe not it's great to see younger people appreciate the music a lot of us grew up on.
@PurpleRose7777 Fair enough, my parents did listen like you said to one genre.....Country and they liked music.
Plus our culture became completely splintered. We used to all be on the same page; mostly. Black and white performed on American Bandstand, but yeah there was Soul Train. Still, we fragmented so much that black people have gone their whole lives only hearing rap music and some people go their whole lives now only playing video games and they've never watched a news broadcast or gone to a concert or watched a documentary. It's just everybody off doing their own thing and not knowing anything outside of their own experience. This virus is actually forcing us to be on the same page for the first time in decades, which in a way might be good if it weren't for all the people suffering and dying!
@@thewanderingamerican5412 At least when a crisis happens at times like this there can be a "silver lining" in some cases. Families are now forced in some places to deal/ put up with each other. Actually TALK to one another but with that, domestic violence has increased along with law enforcement in certain states releasing people that were suppose to be "non-violent' offenders. That's worked out great. Like our President has said WE CANNOT LET THE CURE BE WORSE THAN THE VIRUS!!!!!
I grew up with Nirvana. These guys probably weren't born yet
Not Classic Rock, they were the break through for Grunge music!!! He is Iconic. His suicide rocked the music the world. Rock on 🤘🏻
Rush "Tom Sawyer" is so good
That's Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters on the drums. Definitely check out their music! Everlong and My Hero are good ones to start with.
My Hero
Everlong 💗
I actually still like their debut album the best.
This year is Foo Fighters 25th anniversary. Big Me is my favorite off their first album.
Everlong acoustic version 😢👌🏼
This song dropped in to a musical desert and changed music. His name is Kurt Cobain RIP
I was 18 when this came out, they started playing it at a college dance, they would not finish the song because people would not stop missing, including myself. It changed music and us forever. He did not kill himself.
The brother in the hoodie's face during the song... classic! :-)
Others to explore: Pearl Jam, R.E.M., Santana, Janice Joplin, Davis Bowie, Elvis Costello, Allman Brothers - especially Live at the Fillmore East...and so many more. Carry on!
Mary Santello REM REM REM. I’d love to see them reacting to any of their works from it’s the end of the world as we know it, to nightswimming and everybody hurts.
Oh God, SO many more. From Pivotal songs, to rockers, to reggae, to satirical, to larky, to weepy. It's a brave old/new world.
Nirvana.. the city of Aberdeen officially named the Kurt Cobain bridge "The Kurt Cobain bridge" about fifteen years ago. I grew up along the muddy banks of the Wishkaw River and on the south side of Aberdeen, and this takes me back.
Cobain....the GOD of GRUNGE!!! The start of a whole new era ....another genius gone too soon 👍✌💛
1 bass , 1 guitar 1 voice 1 Drummer ... how powerfull and full Nirvana's songs was ? Genius
I remember watching this video on MTV for tge first time and tge lights flickered on and off in it so it had a warning on that it could cause seizures I believe. When MTV was music 24/7!
Nirvana was one of the greatest rock band..sadly ended when in their peak times..RIP ..RIP kurt Cobain..
In the 80's and the 90's, young people would be glued to the tv watching their favorite bands/artists and their music videos on MTV 24/7. Now those same young people before are watching other young people now reacting to the same songs and videos on RUclips. Times have definitely changed but great music lives on. :D
Yup! One of the best childhood and teen memories was having all of these music channels playing our favorite songs and videos of songs.
46yr old black female from BK, NYC.. The first time my brother and me heard this it blew us away... He was the voice of our generation instantly with this song... And they wonder why our children are burning this bitch down!
2:07 now y’all got me jumping around the kitchen dreads swinging around slapping me in the face 🤟🏽
I miss all the music he wasn’t here to give us!
You guys and every one else here, you NEED to watch Smells Like Teen Spirit 100 musicians on RUclips, they're an Italian group so if you type that in you'll find them - 100 drummers, 100 guitarists etc all playing this and jamming out it's electric.
i'll never forget the first time I heard this song. i was so happy. I thought this is what i've been waiting for!!!!!!
Last band that changed the course of music. Big time.
Abso fucking lutely. There has not been such a music movement since.
PurpleRose7777 true but they’re pop which has been done lots. Grunge never really was
PurpleRose7777 I feel like at that time there was grunge/alternative and then girl/boy groups and that’s about it lol spice girls definitely made a huge impact on the music scene at the time and you’re right that there wasn’t really any female pop groups at first
@@kanadiankandy6647 grunge was rated and voted the last great music movement. And second overall only to the psychedelic movement..
Devin Luoto yup. Definitely did not debate that ☺️
Jeremy by Pearl Jam is a must.
This song goes hard from the jump. I love this song. The drummer is sick....and the guitar is classic.
cannot under state how this song changed music.
"Whoever it is that's singing" you guys crack me up. Its Kurt Cobain, only the most legendary singer/song writer EVER.
He's not the most legendary... definitely one of.
This is my high school years :( 90ies. What are you doing to me :(((
I’m 48 and was in college when this song came out. It changed everything! No one knew what to do with it, we all just knew we loved it. Kurt was the voice of Gen X...RIP.
That distorted guitar and bass followed by the clear two notes of the guitar still send chills down my spine.
Nirvana’s music and writing were a game-changer.
I’m giggling at “classic rock” - because in the 90s “classic rock” was 70s bands. And then I realized it’s 2020 now. Oof.
“Classic rock” Kurt fans: it’s grungeee
Now it's a classic rock
React to Smooth Criminal by Alien Ant Farm.... Amazing MJ cover!
Laura Durand actually this is one of the only covers ever that I really like lol good pick
YES!!!
In these times, WE need more TWINS
This song...man talk about an era. So I was raised to listen to every kind of music. I’m black and my uncle who played guitar for both rock and reggae bands instilled this in me. So imagine me as a teen rocking out to this song...still gives chills decades later. Thanks for the reminder 🤍.
And I forget the next verse
Oh well I guess the pains to rehearse
The lyrics sheets, so hard to find
What are the word, oh nevermind
They SHOULD do a react to him. That would be hilarious!
Try Guns n' Roses - November Rain
It got a billion views also.
Honey, we get it! The first time I heard this song in 1991-1992, my jaw was on the floor. Mind blown.
Your brother needed to see the lyrics like you did when you first watched.....it's the whole experience!
