Tom waits, Brian Wilson, Clifford t ward, gnr, sonic youth etc ?
Burt Bacharach, Paul Simon, Mick and Keith. So many great songwriters.
To hear Courtney sing HER "version" of this song, makes me so angry to the point of feeling ill. The lyrics "nothing really bothers her, she just wants to love herself" comes to mind. The bone picking by Courtney is criminal.
agree i hate Courtney
This was written for his daughter Emily because I was right about Francis not being his daughter and Courtney was a whore and I'm his only girl
The lyrics aren’t about anything specific. They aren’t about Courtney
Ur dope for being pissed
@@rinking88Did you ask Kurt yourself?
The only time Nirvana played this live was at the Aragon Ballroom, Chicago, IL 10/23/93. Dave announces "this is our last song, it's called All Apologies" and then Kurt thinks otherwise and launches into this. It's so much more powerful, lyrically, sonically and knowing it was being heard for the first time is absolutely stunning. The acoustic version is also beautifully haunting.
P.S. Courtney "had no right" playing that song
Courtney has the right to play any song she wants dufus.
i believe if they'd have played all apologies as the last song it would've been a very meaningful last song too, i think it's a beautiful song to die to
woah, that's my birthday... (excluding the 1993)
Sure they did gronk I suppose you were there. Jimbob.
@@chestrockwell6807I take it your a fan of that Killer Courtney Love?
kurt was an enigma. still is. this song was one of the deepest looks into his mind we have outside of interviews and his journals.
I need to have a shower after watching Courtney’s cover of the song
he was at his writing peak he was getting better as a song writer its sad to think the songs we would have had if kurt was still alive.
For sure. Especially if he could have got rid of Courtney and kicked the heroin. That would only happen if he could get a solution to his stomach issues.
@@jonny-b4954 Could have kicked Courtney and got rid of the heroin? I've been sad about Kurt a long time, but I'm just beginning to enjoy the band again. Am I living in the past? Sure but the 90s were better anyway.
@@ikemreacts Well, if he could have kicked heroin or dumped the toxic moocher Courtney, he would have given us more songs. OP is right that he was a better and better songwriter as the albums progressed. Thing is, he did heroin primarily because of his excruciating stomach pain from ulcers. So that would have had to have been treated first. And it's hard to leave someone after years of looking for "love." So, kind of a moot point, but still.
@@jonny-b4954 What can you do? At least there's more footage of him than Jimi Hendrix or John Lennon. I know he's dead, but just pretend it's 1990. You know and I know that our culture cannot produce giants of this kind any longer. It's the age of "monetisation" 😆 not the era of creation. If Kurt were a kid today, he'd be chasing likes on RUclips LOL. Nirvana would never have been built. Our time has passed. Long live the 1990s!
When the drummer tries to sing and wins Grammys and sells 30 million records and is millions of people's favorite band leader of all time and has achieved success that is unfathomable, in fame and riches and legacy and influence & longevity we absolutely love him.
Also, Dave did sing on Nevermind and In Utero. So he was never just the drummer.
He is just an all-around great musician since before the days of Scream.
The fact that Courtney changed lyrics and performed the song originally titled “you have no right” is crazy…
She is a crazy narcissist
Remember hearing the bootlegged recording of the live version of You Know You're Right (everyone called it On a Mountain then) before the studio version was released and being absolutely blown away. Would have loved to have heard a studio version of Do Re Mi, just really tragic and such a shame.
Absolutely, the raw power of the live version of "You Know You're Right" was truly captivating. It's a shame we never got a studio version of "Do Re Mi."
Doremi medley is too good
I could not agree more! "You Know You're Right" is actually my favourite Nirvana song. It's sooo powerful! Something truly special.. I always long for wonder what that next album would have been like... I just know it was gonna be something truly special! And Do Re Mi is amazing! I listen to it on repeat. He had such a gift for melodies and delivery. And... A studio completed version...❤️❤️❤️
yaeh! doremi and opinion I also love sooo much!!
I remember downloading it off Kazaa or Limewire in the mid 2000s. Haha Had like 16k mp3's at one point around the time the Ipod became a thing and I always hated how it couldn't hold anywhere close to my entire collection. Hah
This is one of those very few songs i remember exactly where i was when i first heard it on the radio. At the time it really felt like it came out of nowhere.
he literally had a note that stated she was taking his money for dope while he was trying to get clean, her being removed from the will means she would've had nothing from his success and her and her band would've fell into obscurity after they split, even with such a motive to take this man out it doesn't even compare to the inconsistencies in his "suicide". She has the answers to his death.
Grohl’s viewpoint that he sounded like kurt’s wailing is heartbreaking
Absolutely! It's even more heart-shattering when you hear those words from someone who knew Kurt closely.
In September of 02 my local rock station played the leak (before cease an desist im sure) . I was driving home from work for the first time on my own. I put on the radio and i hear the song I was waiting for for years. It was remarkable. And to hear that song for the first time after waiting for it for years while experiencing the independence of driving by myself for the first time was incredible. I was such a huge Nirvana fan (still am) and that moment will never leave me.
That's a great story, sincerely a pleasure to read.🤘
@@Nickyeyes thats a great pic!
I remember when I first heard this song back early 2000s on a local fm station. I said wow finally a band that sounds like nirvana.
This song is one of my all time favourites.
to me it`s the most uninteresting Nirvana song
@@modestoney1577 right? it was released only to grab more money. imo it sucked when i first heard it, and i still don't like it today XD
@@suma5939 same with me. and I was a huge Nirvana fan. still am.
@@modestoney1577 i am still a big fan too. i just didn't like this one. it sounded like a remix of nirvana song. and not a good one at that XD
Probably my favorite Nirvana song
Man can you imagine if was still here he would had written so many amazing songs
Nothing to discuss. A great song by a genius. I will bite my tongue as far as Courtney is concerned
She is a murdering thief. I'll say it.
Im so warm and calm inside i no longer have to hide...
I love this song so much. I was a much bigger fan of In Utero than Nevermind and this song seemed like a great bridge between the sound of both albums.
good description U agree with you in all
In utero seems a more raw than never mind and I’m gonna take a poke at it being how it was mixed and recorded, it’s more preferable to me honestly, but some of the songs are just all over the place and I can barely listen to them anymore unfortunately
Nevermind has my favorite Nirvana song (Breed), but In Utero is easily my favorite Nirvana album
@@NeepNeepPohn Breed is so, so good though.
It's still crazy to me that this was the first nirvana song i heard and i loved it but i didnt know it was their last song
02:24 I love how Kurt "Arrives on the third day".
Great video, non biased, accurate and all (known) information, and great narriation and editing!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're glad you enjoyed the video. Your feedback means the world to us. Stay tuned for more content! 🎶
@@SoundscapesRockThough I strongly go with the "Kurt was murdered crowd" (because well.... Kurt was murdered!), it is nice to have a balanced and non biased video for sure. Well made video indeed ❤️
@@joshuayettou9032 Kurt took his own life. the "Kurt was murdered" crowd need therapy.
The real story is right there in the words, It's clear as day.
She fucking killed him
There are two versions to these lyrics
The recorded singles lyrics are a farewell to courtney and the band
The acoustic demo however is a farewell to life
Interesting observation! It's intriguing how the two versions convey different sentiments.
I gotta hear the acoustic demo...
I’m not so sure, both versions reference another ‘she’. Obviously nobody can claim to know entirely what happened ( I have my own take on all this but opinions are like arseholes, everybody has got one) but given both versions allude to wanting and needing to move on, and in the acoustic version he even sings that he will ‘love again’ etc I think it’s pretty clear he wanted out of the marriage and the band but I don’t think there’s lyrical references to suicide in either of these versions, although there are plenty of them in In Utero, sadly.
Whether Courtney actually had something to do with Kurt’s “suicide” or Kurt actually committed the act himself, it’s safe to say Courtney was ultimately the cause of his death.
100%
Kurt was a herion addict. Drugs killed that man. Krist was the one who drove him to rehab to help him. Krist mentioned kurt was completely oit of his mind at that point with herion. Drugs kulled that mans mental and health state to the point he killed himself
As a lifelong fanboy, all of the above check out as plausible -- in high school I didn't want to believe that he offed himself but have lately come to acknowledge that H/miserable marriage could do irreparable damage to mental state, among others no doubt -- He had songs like "I hate myself & want to die" -- Yeah he says it was a ha-ha title but cmon man -- Idk in the event this dude plotted his own death, he sure knew what he was doing to leave it shrouded in mystery .....
Maybe. Or it could of been the heroin. Maybe Courtney was just another symptom of what he already had going on upstairs.
Courtney saved cobain after his first suicide attempt months earlier. They were druggies. That's what caused his death. Not courtney.
This song further proves Kurt's longing to leave Courtney and move forward without her. I just wish he succeeded before she got to him :(
I've been a fan of Kurt and Nirvana since 1993... It still breaks my heart today
His songs are vague and interpretive though...
@@JasonTaylor90210This one was pretty clear and damning. So we're so many of good other songs, like In Bloom. He was often precise, just not literal.
I wish Krist would tell us more about Kurt.
One of my favorite shows in my hometown. Aragon Ballroom back in 90s was a great time to be alive!
i see where dave is coming from with the courtney thing
Courtney wanted to BE Kurt. She had the opportunity having that song to herself for some time and then, with preposterous indulgence, played it before we got to hear the original.
Kurt's swan song. So amazingly heartbreaking 💔.
I swear I know just about every single thing there is to know about Kurt Cobain/Nirvana (especially the last tragic weeks/months before Kurt was murdered), but I somehow still learn new and very interesting little nuggets about Kurt and Nirvana. I never heard of the "jam after dinner". Very cool!
your hero was a depressed addict who took his own life and bailed on his family. deal with it.
Great video, man! Thank you!
kurt really was the most gifted songwriter after lennon and mccartney, a legend gone too soon…
Not even close
You know, you’re right.
Completely disagree but we're all entitled to an opinion
Kurt wrote his own songs the other two … not so much. Sean Lennon is 100 times the music a his father was imho.
@@raddastronaut True, not everyone can write lyrics like "right wing, left wing, chicken wing." or "I got a dick, hear my fucking hate". 😂
This is easily my favorite song of theirs.
It's actually my favorite Nirvana song
It’s the best nirvana song of all of them
This is a song I dont want to end 😭
Already one of my favorite channels.
Our band “Out of Stock” performed this last night here in the Philippines! Kurt’s spirit was alive in the room 🌞
Definitely the most informative and entertaining video on the subject.
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it
I think it was in 2002, a Seattle radio station played that song over and over, like 40 times in a row. Each time the dong would end the DJ would scream Fuck you Courtney and then play it again, lol.
Awesome comment!
The grungiest grunge song I've ever heard. Kurt was an absolute master at his craft. He also knew the sounds he wanted, which requires good musical understanding, which a lot of people dont give him credit
From all the footage of seeing if Kurt and Courtney together before his demise, Courtney was very abusive towards him, and it was obviously shown, especially in the 1993 MTV video music awards, if you look closely at how she treats him and some of the pictures he’s not happy with her she’s just taking a spotlight for herself, and when he wrote the song, you know you’re right, the lyrics are plainly obvious he was going to divorce her and leave her and then probably afterwards Nirvana would’ve been no more basically in his own words he was at the end of his ropes
Courtney Love: The song has immense earning potential
Uses it in Unplugged (but alters lyrics) along with other songs that Cobain wrote.
And here fans continue to wonder why she's so hated.
They both used to sing each others songs though, it wasn't just her, other issues with her notwithstanding of course..
Nirvana recorded this when they had some spare time one weekend. It was not intended for any specific album, so when Cobain died, it went unreleased..
My favorite Nirvana Song. So amazing
Always loved the song, such a heartbroken song, can totally relate when you break up with a long term relationship.

Theres a typo on that first screen "Nirvan"
Thank you for pointing that out! We apologize for the typo in the first screen. We'll make sure to fix it. Enjoy the video! 🎵
Where can I find the piano version that you have in the background? It’s beautiful.
i truly feel with all my heart ♥️ that EVERYONE somehow just knows that she was completely behind his demise… and she is also just AGONIZING over that to this day (just as she should be)
🥺💔 it’s so so very disgraceful what eventually happened to him. It absolutely utterly broke my heart 💔🥺😔👍❤️🩹✨
nobody was behind Kurt's demise except Kurt but keep blaming mommy for a depressed addict who bailed on his family.
Love was trying to say he was murdered. She rang around trying to contact Layne to see if he'd seen Kurt in his last days coz she wanted answers. She said to Layne's dad (after not being able to talk to Layne) that she knows he didn't commit suicide. Layne was adamant Kurt wouldn't have killed himself but didn't want to point fingers. He obviously had his opinions on who did it. They weren't close but he knew Kurt enough to have an inside POV on what happened
@@nelliesilvers1210 you literally just made all of that up.
This is an excelent coverage. I love this song….it gave me chills when it released back then, and it still gives me chills now.
Thank you!
Dang , she is crazy!
It came out when I just got out of rehab,kicking the habit,I just moved back to Detroit from Denmark,and my youngest brother had luekemia,which I became his doner,why I came back,he passed a yr later.thias song makes me cry.
I'd heard of this so g years before I heard it in the early/mid 00's, it's one of my favourite nirvana tunes that aren't on the MTV unplugged album
I was so sick of nirvana by this time and then this dropped on the radio out of nowhere to this day this and lake of fire are the only two songs I won’t skip past.
My favourite nirvana song!!
Same!❤
I'll never forget the day YKYR released. Rob, the DJ said they had it and wouldn't hold it back any longer. He played it, I screamed, fell to the floor, cried,...then he played it again. I called my friend down the street, and we were both screaming. I listened as the DJ played it a third time, then ran to my friend's house where we listened together as the radio continued to play the song 10 times in a row.
It was beautiful. Kurt is beautiful.
Every time I come here to listen to this song I play it about 10 times in a row as well lol
Is that actual footage of YKYR live? Cause that is amazing!! Thanks for showing me!
kurt wore that Urge Overkill t shirt on the jan/feb pacific rim tour in 1992. He wore it in Melbourne jan 31-92 for example. Also shows in feb, so fiotage possibly japan or hawaii that month.
@@dcoop1422doesn’t answer the question
Cool that the channel is growing! Love it! Keep up the great work!
This song does not get enough credit
In what i understand of years of being a fan and listener of nirvana and Kurt's music "Who cares?" would be probably be something that he would say about the meaning of any of his songs. Some of me is glad he didn't have to go through the aftermath of separating with love. It's kinda a sad and poetic moment in time when Kurt wanted nothing but love but had to walk away from it. Both her and the feeling. RIP the voice that makes most party and many cry.
It wasn't called '' You know you're right'' It was called '' On a mountain'' in 1994, I had a bootleeg version in 1994. I might still have it on a cassette somwhere.
I remember the guys playing this back in the way 90's, just a jam session they called it mountain something.
ykyr is the best of nirvana song, eventhough i make smell like teen spirit as my 2nd nationl anthem.
…the only truth is song lyrics! He described, wrote, composed, recorded…you know you’re right is the open book of his heart ♥️
At the start its the sound of a kicked over ladder, which means hanging and suicide, of which we all know he was suicidal, and the words he wrote and sang were about pain, sadness, suicide, of which people relate, and of which the song is about. If they write lyrics about their life and pain you better take it as the truth, Chris Cornell, Chester Bennington, Lil Peep, Amy winehouse, Layne staley, Juice WRLD, Mac Miller, etc they may cover up the way they died, but its basically the same for all.
"We all knew he was suicidal"
Nonsense, the suicidal story came from Courtney, everyone else said that Kurt upbeat and positive, he had even made plans to try and reconcile with Donald, by going fishing.
One thing suicidal people do not do....is make plans, it just doesn't happen, and it's one of the many major flaws in the "suicide" theory.
always been my favorite song, also always loved the fact it was released in 2002. The year I was born
The year Layne died😔. That's what I think of every time I hear of that year
U can actually hear that song in the bootleg cd outcesticide.. and in the show they introduced it as "on a mountain" or mountain top. Something like that. When the quiet goes to loud the sound just explodes. Sounds amazing. I 1xt heard this song wayyyyyy before it was ever released like 2001. Before any boxset came out. There's also the home recording. Very haunting
I'm sure all of this can now be found on here. But back in 01 youtube didn't exist
Yeah those outcesticide releases were legendary, bakc in the 90s before any internet bootleg sharing
my favorite track by them, i call it "last rites" such a great song
I remember the day the mp3 leaked on file sharing. We had the live one for a few years, then 10 seconds of the studio appeared during the legal disputes. The full studio version leaked the day Courtney Love actually was hosting MTV for 24 hours. Its suspected that Grohl leaked it. Its theorized he wanted to throw her off on live TV, but she probably didnt realize it was leaked, or she wasnt trying to wig about it.
Thank you that was very interesting. It really just sums up the incredible potential of what Kurt would have achieved if he would have persevered through all his inner turmoil.
This was THE song that made me a Nirvana fan the first time I heard it my heart sunk
Love all this information. I just wish you would've used something more appropriate for the portion of video that plays during the live recording of the song from the Aragon Ballroom (1:23 > 1:55). Looks like the footage you used is from the Nevermind-era/tour (no angels on stage, and he's playing his sunburst Jaguar instead of one of his Jagstangs, which is what he was using during the In Utero tours in '93). Plus the video isn't anywhere close to being in sync (musically) with the audio we hear. Even if there isn't any video from the Aragon show, I think some still shots from the performance would've been better than older, out of sync footage. Just my two cents.
Hey, great video- could you name the background track at 2:12? It sounds really cool..
2:42 Kurt used Earnie Bailey Pedal Board and Kurt didn't use a Boss DS-1 the pedal Kurt used was either a 1980s Made In Japan Ibanez SM-9 Super Metal or either a 1993 Boss HM-3 Hyper Metal pedal on the song "You Know You're Right"
Nirvana was my discovery into how music touches that special part of the soul. I was a teenager when I discovered Nirvana’s music. Kurt Cobain’s raw and passionate and beautiful vocals touch the part of me that was confused, angry and lost. I felt seen by his music, I felt like I belonged somewhere, even though I didn’t know where specifically where. I just knew that this man’s real and vicious screams and their beautiful melodies made me really feel alive and understood ( somehow.) It wasn’t because he was depressed drug addicted or dark . It was that Nirvanas music was extremely honest! The main style of music during the 90’s and previously the 80’s was very fake, painted up and plastic( in my opinion.) For a band like Nirvana to hit it big exposed people, who were “ asleep” to an art the pointed directly at them saying “ LISTEN, I see you!” I wish to God Kurt was still alive because damn, what a painful moment. Music, the way it was making me feel, died with him. Of course new bands come out every day and wow they rock! However, nothing and no one will ever hit me in the heart the way Nirvana did!❤
I tend to think Courtney was downplaying but also responding. A lot of people grieve differently. In her lyrics she touches on an anger of him leaving as he did. I reserve judgement of her. This song was a song about her after all. It hit hard the first time I heard it. Both versions.
The fact that he wasn't suicidal and he was going to divorce love just makes it more sad. To be murdered and made to look like he offed himself is a shame.
From what listening and watching different things Courtney was trying to break them up because wanted Kurt to believe he was the only talented one. If she truly felt that way she would either not want the rest of band to have any say or want what Kurt wanted. Holding a song hostage to find the most profitable way to get it out in my opinion goes against what Kurt was about. I mean he turned down 1 million bucks to head lollapalooza so I don’t think he’d nitpick over which box set his song was in so they could sell more. But I don’t know that’s only what I think.
It was an Ibanez la metal distortion pedal
"you got no right" to sing that song
I remember the day it was aired on the radio.
Ty for the video!! Awesome job!!! First time I heard it tears formed. It was as real an raw as it gets!!!!! He was singing from the grave! To this day I can listen to it but NOT watch the video!!! The video is really good! Captures his entire career. Just sad to see. An Courtney singing the song made me wanna #ill her!!!! R.I.P. Kurt
You're welcome! We're thrilled you enjoyed the video and felt the raw emotion in the song. It's truly a powerful and haunting experience. 🖤🎶
Courtney lacks the self awareness to realize that she no musical talent whatsoever, so she had to shit all over the last song Kurt wrote, BEFORE we were able to hear it. I full heartedly agree with you about Courtney Love.
I was never a HUGE Nirvana song. I just liked a few of their songs. I love "You know you're right" though.
Ive always heard the only guitar he brought to the Robert Lang recording was his jaguar, and he had to use a pedal board and amp that was in the studio.
Devastating song
0:52 Nirvan was what nirvana called nirvana’s van
As a fan, I think it's his best song.
What song is that playing on the background?
If you really want to hear the original intent when the emotion that was fuelling Kurt was most potent I suggest you read the original lyrics from the Aragon ballroom performance
Interesting!
5:24 lord the irony that was a tough listen
what live preformance is this at 1:33, looks to be somewhere in 1991 but when?
what song did you use at 2:35
Best Nirvana song, for me.
It was only played once live I have it
just read the entry for this tune in wikipedia, reads verbatim to the way this is pitched.
Music is how musician bleeds.
How were the opening and closing chords created, song-video-documentary-maker?
Kurt let you know what was going on. It's all in the lyrics.
