There’s a copy of the first album in my university radio station. There’s a sticker on it that notes “The drummer from Nirvana. Sounds nothing like them. This band is gonna be huge!”
Well actually, once after Dave had recorded a demo, Kurt called him up and asked what he was doing. He told him, and Kurt wanted him to come over and show him. After hearing the song, Kurt kissed Dave and happily proclaimed, I'm not the only songwriter in this band anymore!
This is true, but even then, Dave didn't get to see much of his work end up in any Nirvana releases. If I recall correctly, he was credited for the main riff in a song from "In Utero," and he wrote and sung lyrics for a B-side on that same album, but that was all the songwriting credit he ever got. The vast majority of Nirvana was Kurt Cobain.
"If only he could have seen the joy that his music brought to the world, maybe he could have found his own. My life was forever changed by Kurt, something I never had the chance to say while he was still with us, and not thanking him for that is a regret I will have to live with until we are somehow reunited. Not a day goes by when I don't think of our time together, and when we meet in my dreams there's always a feeling of happiness and calm, almost as if he's just been hiding, waiting to return." Dave Grohl
Dave wrote songs for Nirvana. He wrote the bridge of Stay Away, he wrote Marigold, he provided background vocals live and in studio. He was a songwriting member along with Krist.
I can't remember what the bridge of Stay Away was. It seems like it went from verse to chorus. I'll have to listen. And didn't Nirvana already have Pay to Play before that?
Foo Fighter's debut and the Colour and the Shape are both great but they've really tumbled into that god-awful Imagine Dragons-esc radio friendly rock genre, I think Dave Grohl would've made far better music if he stuck to being a solo artist, but he's probably making bank so whatever.
Hiding his enormous ambition has always been a secret of his success, unlike Courtney, who was always open about what she wanted, much to the detriment of her reputation. There is no chance in hell Dave wasnt going to make Foo Fighters happen, its just Kurt made it happen sooner rather than later.
Dave had said before Kurt's death, that he didn't want to only be in Nirvana. During the end he'd said he probably play here and there. He doesn't really talk about it but when you look into it, Kurt's death influenced what he'd go on to do so much.
It's often mentioned how Taylor took a big leap of faith when presented with the opportunity to LEAVE Alanis - a top headlining act in 1995 - and join Foo Fighters. I agree. But that was not nearly as profound as Dave's decision to go forward with his own band after being offered a solid position with Tom Petty. Petty was king of rock for the most part for about 2 decades to that point. Dave took the offer for a sure thing and said thanks but I'm going to bet on me. He did not double down, he pushed all in. THAT is so punk rock
Drummers are literally the backbone of everyband. If any band switched drummers everything sounds different. If the drum beat if off everything sounds off. R.I.P to Kurt. He was only my age. 🌹
Something that initially surprised me is that the 1st full lineup of the Foos is Dave and Pat ofc who were apart of Nirvana (Pat albeit a to-be member who was only touring guitarist) but ALSO, Drummer William Goldsmith and Bassist Nate Mendel who were both members of the 90's emo band: SUNNY DAY REAL ESTATE, WHICH IS MY 2ND FAVORITE BAND OF ALL TIME (Behind Nirvana) AND I KNEW OF SUNNY DAY REAL ESTATE BEFORE I LEARNED THAT THE 2 WERE (OR ARE STILL FOR NATE) APART OF FOO FIGHTERS WHICH BLEW MY MIND
I will never forget watching that performance on SNL and both rockin out and crying my eyes out. Huge Nirvana AND Petty fan, it was nuts to see/hear at that moment.
What makes me love self-titled more is that not only is it Dave’s farewell to Nirvana but also seemingly the end of an era for “grunge”. Though FF are their own band respectively I still consider self-titled the true successor to In Utero as Kurt’s influence can be heard throughout the whole album. The perfect bridge between In Utero and The Colour and the Shape.
dave did show kurt his demos and he showed him alone+easy target in 91 while kurt was in a bathtub kurt actually liked it and also felt relieved that he didnt have to write all the songs in the band anymore and but dave said that he thinks the songs they had then were good enough (this is just a rough retelling of what happened from my memory ive definitely forgetten key parts but basically dave showed alone+easy target to kurt and he liked it)
I understand the crazyness of having people that ridiculed you when you were young all of a sudden be in front of you as your performing your music and your like WTF! But thats life.
I've seen this phrase in many sources and I think it referenced not the direct people who bullied Kurt or any other members, but generally type of person like jocks or "normies" who either bullied or didn't get along with Kurt before mainstream success.
You can definitely hear Nirvana in This is a Call -- his playing, the structure and vocals are almost as if Nirvana wrote it, and Dave is singing it. Same as you could imagine Kurt singing it.
Great vid Marc. I love to see you exploring more interesting stories like this one. As Grohl once said" There’s always gonna be rock n’ roll bands, there’s always gonna be kids that love rock n’ roll records, and there will always be rock n’ roll.”
Great video, especially the phone calls 😅 Dave's such a strong human being. He experienced the same thing more than one, and he's still going strong. God bless him!
I wish someone would actually censor people like you, no one ever does unfortunately. If anyone actually did I wouldn't have to hear you guys cry about it all the time
@@fuckcensorship69 Yep, and one that he was completely against taking....and the side effects were Mio-car-di-tis (spelt like that cuz of censorship) and he died of....ahhhh yes, exactly that. Inflammation of the ♥️
This is a 10/10 video Marcbutevil. Resilience is the word to define what David Grohl did with his career after Nirvana. I'm a big fan of both band Foo Fighters and Nirvana.
This is a really well constructed video and an interesting topic too, personally the first few foo fighters albums are my favorite so its fascinating how they came about.
The Storyteller is one of my all time favorite books. Dave grew up in Springfield, about 20mins drive away from where I grew up and where I currently live. A lot of what he described I could relate to growing up. He’s been a huge inspiration for me as a drummer and glad I can share life while he continues to write and play music.
I thought the impossible part was starting a band that matched Nirvana's level of success, which is also what he did. Dave has been in two bands that were THE biggest rock band at a certain time. I don't know if you can say that about anyone else. There are names like Ozzy, Slash, Chris Cornell, even Damon Albarn who have done pretty well, but not exactly there. So you might say Dave Grohl is probably the biggest rock star who ever lived.
every time i tell people dave performed the entire first album himself i blow their minds. i'm glad he was able to channel his pain into the foo fighters.i hope he is doing well.
I love Dave and Nirvana and there's no artist I love more than Tom Petty, so I would've loved to have heard Dave more as a Heartbreaker, but I'm pretty happy with how things turned out for the both of them.
Oh man, this video is great The amount of research put into it had to be substantial The story of the Foo Fighters' first album always gets me a little emotional because it's really about someone battling grief, something that nearly all of us can relate to at some level Plus, the first album is by far my favorite (Floaty is one of the best songs I've heard) I just wonder how he kept track of all of the sources at once Hopefully he does a video on the Foo Fighters album that got scrapped
As a guitarist, drummer, vocalist and writer Dave and Kurt have both inspired me in many ways. Kurt's writing, Dave's vocals and even more him as a person. So sad what happened to Kurt.
Great video, I love the og ff so much is such an amazing work of art, I would love to see a similar video covering a more underrated album in a legendary band's legacy. Specifically a video on the red hot chili pepper's album one hot minute and the dark Era they went through leading up to and while recording that album
It's haunting to imagine Dave recording the first Foo Fighters album, virtually alone, in the same studio Nirvana recorded their last song...Dead men don't pull triggers #Justiceforkurt
You made a great video, I’ve been a Nirvana fan my whole life. From a baby to 34 years later, Dave’s story being told with such positivity and honesty is highly appreciated. Keep up the great content 👊
Dave did let Kurt hear his songs, Kurt was afraid to ask Dave to change the lyrics so they didn’t make any of them nirvana songs. Marigold is also a nirvana song that Dave wrote.
@@wa1kab0utno he didn't. that's just a conspiracy by people who are too afraid of the truth. It sucks, but you can't just make stupid stuff up because loss hurts.
@@ecstaggic its common knowledge that courtney love tried to hire a hitman on him once before, what stopped her from doing it again? nothing. he was murdered. even kurts grandfather talked about the hitmen.
I was 20 years old when Nevermind dropped, & I was a huge fan. But I can say that I never heard anyone say that the video for SLTS was controversial in any way.
Awesome. Thanks for your well put together docos. First one i watched was How Nirvana Became Nirvana. That was only an hour or so ago. Informative & interesting without jamming to much in. I tend to like Nirvana docos cos Nirvana is my sons favourite band ever. I asked my son how is Nirvana your fav when Kurt was dead 4 years by the time you were born? He couldnt give me an answer. So I said its cos hes just a punk, eg punk rocker. I had never heard Kurt described in that before to the best of my knowledge. its only been in the last 6 or so months I have heard Kurt described as a punk. He was an amazing talent
I feel like Dave Grohl has gone through so many losses Kurt Cobain, Tom Petty, Taylor Hawkins and other people I probably can’t think of at the top of my mind
Dave went from the guy from Nirvana with a band to the guy from Foo Fighters that was in Nirvana. That takes a lot of talent. I grew up with Foo Fighters as opposed to Nirvana so he was the Foo Fighters guy to me before the drummer from Nirvana.
I just read an article about the new Foo Fighters drummer " Foo Fighters revealed their new drummer, Josh Freese...The news comes ahead of the band’s massive tour which is set to kick off May 24 in New Hampshire and will be the first without Taylor Hawkins"
Honestly I'm very happy you're branching out from Weezer (although I love the band), because you're just a very talented video essayist in general lmao
Okay I jumped the gun I pause the video after part about Dave receiving the call about Kurt's death on March 3rd, typed out my comment, and went back and continued ur video. I felt so unbelievably stupid that I had to immediately stop the video again and top out my apology comment.. lol
I remember when I realized that Dave Grohl from the Foo Fighters was the same Dave Grohl from Nirvana. I had heard his name and stuff but just never put two and two together lol
