I hope the old school Nirvana fans agree with me when I say that this is absolutely the best version of this song.
most definitely
i personally like the pine street theatre performance better ruclips.net/video/Xq47qqVOE1k/видео.html
@@SkullboyMus1c same
close second, but I prefer the Teatro Castello in Rome. Maybe cause that's the version I heard first
I agree with, best performance ever
This song is so fucking underrated
Love this song there Will only be one Kurt cobain he was amazing miss him so much 🎸🎸🎸🚶❤️💯💯💯
Amazing that he wrote this song in 1985 before Nirvana in his room in Aberdeen as a teen.
Such an ear for a melody at such a young age.
Favourite!! Every version
Love spank trough i can listen to it all The time love you Kurt so much ❤️💯🎸🎸🎸🎸🚶
considering the fact krist wanted to start a band with kurt because of a demo of this song
He had a voice like no other.
@sabbracadabrano
@sabbracadabra What other voices? No match.
@sabbracadabra They are all great rock vocals and I love them! What I meant is that Kirt has his own very unique soulful rock voice (and it applies each of the names you mentioned with different colors). I am not interested in who is better kind of talks here.
@sabbracadabra No. No, it isn't.
@sabbracadabra8367 kurt's voice is raspy in its own sense. can't describe it any other way
I love how this song starts off like some typical Aerosmith dinosaur rock love song with the whole "baby baby" stuff and then Kurt screams and it just totally goes into Nirvana territory without missing a beat or sounding out of place with the first half. Kurt was a genius, especially considering this song is as old as the band itself.
its older than the band
@@Nedmaxxx yeh, he did it when he was still in fecal matter
@Michael Self was* 👍
@Michael Self Not really
Kurt was in that band as the singer and guitarist but the other members were different than the nirvana lineup
It was him and a few other people from the early days of the seattle grunge scene's formation
Kris wasn't in the band and neither was Chad who were the people that first formed Nirvana publicly
I don't know if they had a set list for this show but, I'm sure Krist was excited when Kurt went into this riff. Considering it was the song that convinced him to join Kurt
Cobain could literally do anything he wanted with a guitar and it would fit the song.
It probably doesn't hurt to have a superb rythem section.
It’s because his rhythm section is tight as fuck and never misses a beat.
A natural , shredders dont have shit on Kurt.
Those riffs....nothing ever like it again
NPC #303 bro nobody asked tho...
One of the most perfect Nirvana songs. The slow starting, the brutality of the chorus, and great lyrics. In their top 10, for sure.
@@angel-pi9wk lol
Yap
Phantom Airsoft Fecal Matter is pretty much Nirvana
Great lyrics?😂
van Morrison - gloria
0:16 "Tables and chairs would look good in my garden."
Jarfish LMAO
😂
Jajajajajajajaj
Looks like Dexter Morgan
I don’t hear the illiteracy
I think a lot of people miss this but this song being performed live here is a very special thing, because Spank thru was there since the very beginning and sort of caused everything as well. Songs like Teen Spirit, Blew and Lithium were made when the band was already sort of popular in some sort of way on top of being under the name Nirvana. However with Spank Thru, this was one of Kurt’s first ever songs he wrote that was on his fecal Matter album, which led Krist joining the band the begin with, which then led to Nirvanas official formation and so and so forth. My point is from Kurt playing this song to Krist in his room to get him to join his band to playing it live in front of a hundred thousand people just 7 years later must have been an emotional thing for Kurt and Krist. It’s like “wow man.... we actually made it”
Blew is one of their early songs too.
That's a really observant point, well said.
Yah
live at reading sounds like an album, one of the best gigs ever
Nirvana always had the coolest, random, go go dancing people during various performances.
Who are these people….?
Where do they come from?
@@himanshupanwar5918 They are Kurt's friends who had been called by him to be on the stage. The one at this video is Tony.
@@adri_mirnsince i don't have the means to check, I'm just gonna believe you in this 😊
@@ZairulAzri I'm not sure about the sources too, but I've read that the female dancer in Live at the Paramount was Nikki McClure (she's a book illustrator now). I'm not sure if the male dancer in Live at Reading is the same as in Live at the Paramount, but his name is Tony. Search for them on RUclips or Google.
There's a girl at the side of the stage if you search for "breed live" I think it's the first result, look over Kurt's shoulder, behind him, there's this short haired girl absolutely going for it, it's so cool I put it on when I'm sad and it still makes me laugh
0:16 when you realized this is the song that started nirvana when you where a teenager and look out at the crowd watching years later and think back to the last couple years of high school again to realize how far you’ve come
Thats what i was thinking
Best comnent
I mean I’m in high school now
Same
You're in high school again.
man, if I had kurt's face I would be 100 percent confident.
I'm kinda cursed with it, people always comment on my Instagram photos about, it's annoying so no you don't.
+KOSCade what's your Instagram
+Savage Dick Actually he was pretty unconfident since school, because he was too skiny.
Especially at 0:17 XD
doesn't matter how pretty you are man, life's a bitch no matter what, make the most out of it
"I can't explain just why we lost it from the start. Living without you girl, you'll only break my heart. YEEEAAAHHHH!!!" Sounds like a sentimental love song, then the screaming begins. Classic Cobain.
"I can feel it I can hold it I can rub it I can shape it
I can mold it I can cut it I can taste it I can spank it
Beat it
Masturbate it " ahaha Classic
@@vinyldiary6664 it sounds like he changes the lyrics for this version tho
@@vinyldiary6664 I'm pretty sure it's bend it and not rub it
No one else these days has the same type of energy Nirvana did, glad I grew up to them in the 90s.
Hey I’m only in high school now and I half nirvana is a huge part of my life
Kurt spent hours upon hours playing his guitar and writing songs as a youth, dreaming of one day being in a band and headlining a major music festival to a massive audience. I’m glad his dreams came true. RIP Kurt x
It sure did
Spank thru..... the best of live at reading
Tourette’s was awesome at this show
One Of my favourite Nirvana songs
I like how they let that random guy just go with the flow on stage almost the entire set.
Thats dancing Tony. He used to dance on stage during some UK shows when Nirvana were on tour there.
I'm going to be singing to myself "I've been looking for Dave grohl" next week at work
He says Day Glow anyways
Call on the police @@shadowcween7890
when someone does something so fucking stupid that you just watch and question their existence 0:16
Brian Torres "You seem like a nice person, you should smile more though"
me:
Kurts.shoulders YOU'RE EVERYWHERE LMAO
I KNOW LMAO
Kurts.shoulders
1:28
me when I forget where my (anything) is but I actually had it in my hand
Dude, they were even better live...
Naomi Aguirre ya they were ceratinly something special
You have a cute doggie
They were fucking brilliant..i still love them as much now as I did back then
2:27 It almost looks like he's about to fling the guitar at someone.
well he should of cause it was a knock off Strat after all
I love how Cobain's solos are sometimes just randomly noodling around the frets but somehow it still sounds great.
Lol that's what happens when your song is not in a specific key lol
@@ericchin739 Clueless comment
@maultwo Okay bud. Relax. It's a RUclips comment. Carry on, unless you're wanting to argue semantics and music theory?! Lol
@@ericchin739 I'm relaxed. Are you not relaxed? You made a clueless RUclips comment, it's okay.
@@maultwo So, no? Don't want to argue semantics and music theory to explain why my comment is clueless?
I remember when I was 15, RUclips didnt exist and I dreamed about watching stuff like this. It was magical.
1:29 -Kurt: I've been looking for Dave Grohl(8)
1:32 -Camera man: Here is Dave!
-Dave: Hi Kurt!
1:37: -Kurt: Do you wanna meet Dave Grohl(8)
1:39: Dave: lol Stop
It does sound like that! XD
Yes!!
Jorge Eduardo fast forward to recently " I wanna meet Dave Grohl" by Wavves
Jorge Eduardo omg I see it😂
Great... now I can’t get it outta my head 😂
The best performance of this show!!! love it
Dear cameraman,he isn't saying Dave Grohl
@@Cloud007. dear editor*
yeah he is
@@birdvidz5349 He is saying day glow.
When sung in that way, “Day Glow” and “Dave Grohl” sound exactly the same
@@birdvidz5349 It depends on what you want to hear. What he is saying is day glow, although you can hear dave grohl if you REALLY wanted to
I saw an interview with Paul McCartney, he was asked if he hadnt been in the Beatles, what band would he have liked to be in, straight away he said Nirvana. Nuff said.
If I could go back in time I would be at a Nirvana concert. 🎸😎🤟⭐
2:27 The best rock n' roll Solo ever
This isn’t rock n’ roll, this is punk/grunge rock
@@meraq2836 rock n’ roll is a main genre, and punk/grunge is a sub genre of rock n roll. they are the same excluding style, but in hindsight they are alike in many ways.
@@jarcophagus Actually rock n’ roll is 50s and 60s rock like Elvis, Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, etc. The term you are looking for is the generic term “rock.”
@@mrrandmssbearyt5222 oh ok thanks for informing me
@@meraq2836punk/grunge rock IS a type of rock n roll. Or I guess it’s better to say a kind of rock. That’s why rock is in it.
Rock music is rock music. It’s still appropriate to call it rock in roll since it’s deviated from it.
Grunge and punk are alternative rock sub genres. They are definitely rock!
his eyes are looking diffeerent directions at 0:17
+beavis you're right!
+beavis the way that only his right eye moves at 0:17 is soo creepy

sweatymcrtshirt gerard way is bae
every time i hear this song i find it amazing that this song, was one of the first songs kurt ever wrote, back in 1985 or so. this is one hell of a good song first song.
live without you girl, you only break my... heart.
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH
“When I first heard Elvis' voice, I just knew that I wasn’t going to work for anybody; and nobody was going to be my boss...Hearing him for the first time was like busting out of jail.”
-Bob Dylan
Precisely the way I felt in 1991
Damn this guy could write.
written by a 17 year old too
Best version of this song. Hands down.
Still one of my favourite Nirvana tunes

This song is for the lovers out there
And all the lights on the trees
All the flowers have gingivitis
And the birds fly happily
We're together once again my love
I need you back, oh baby baby
I can't explain just why we lost it from the start
Living without you girl, you only break my heart ... Yeah!
I can feel it, I can hold it, I can pin it, shape it, mold it,
I can cut it, I can taste it, spank it
Beat it while you ... Ah, wait here
I've been looking for days now
Always hearing the same ol'
City boy won't you spank thru?
I can make you do things you won't think you ever could

I’ve been looking for day glow, surely that’s the lyric ?
@@razlindez I've been looking for Dave Grohl*
I've always heard "sticky boredom with a book"
@@razlindezyeah like i’m 98% sure that’s it
Kurt Cobain didn't understand why he was so popular. he was shy and insecure, even though he was really talented and creative and good looking. he said he wanted to be famous. he worked hard to get there. when he finally realized just how famous he was, that he was never able to be comfortable with it. then he had his drug problem, depression and painful stomach problems on top of overwhelming fame. a lot of people probably don't understand how someone can reach the level of success and fame that he reached and just throw it all away like that, but then a lot of people don't understand that being famous doesn't mean your life is perfect or that you don't have other serious mental health problems going on. Nirvana were so cool. and Kurt Cobain was a great singer
Facts
He always had a way of phrasing words so that you couldn't understand what he was saying unless you had the lyrics, at least in the earlier songs. Floyd the Barber and this song are great examples.
officially the first track of them
It's probably my favourite as well... It's 100% Nirvana!
Not Nirvana's first track. It was Kurt Cobain's first recorded song with his former band Fecal Matter.
Exelente Bro ! Good Info :) ! .
Wojciech Jankowski thanks for the info
It wasn't their first track, he had a bunch of older tapes
Woah, that spin when he starts the solo actually shocked me! Love it!
1:28 I've been looking for Dave Grohl!!! - Kurt Cobain 1:31 He's right here! - Camera Man 1:37 Do you wanna meet Dave Grohl! - Kurt Cobain 1:39 He's right here you fucking idiot!!!! - Camera Man
Hahahahaha! Loved your comment, man!

First I had no idea why so many were talking about Grohl, then I started to listen closer... ^^

Lmaoooo
1:04
He could do anything to a guitar and it worked
tdruK yeah, Jimi Kurt Eddie Van, they make it look easy
Underrated great song
Live at reading 92
Kicked ass
0:16 “I think I forgot to give grandma her birthday present”
0:15 That moment when you realize people only knew you mainly for Smells Like Teen Spirit.
His eyes tho
Most people are morons....
LJR 87 That’s like 90% of people who’ve heard of Nirvana lmao
This was also before the internet and youtube and even kazaa and napster. Unless you heard this song live or on a bootleg, or you were one of the couple thousand who owned the Sub Pop 200, you'd have never heard this song before. Goddamned kids these days lmao
This comment deserve more likes
the whole concert is just frikin legendary. Nirvana at its peak of chaos / energy
I love this song. One of my favourites.
i would kill for a time machine tbh
uuugggh, i love this reading era!!! His vocals and guitar was sooo on point!!
2020 and I've yet to find a musician and band that I love more and moves me like this. Love Kurt and this band.
took me a minute to realize the guy w/ long hair was Novoselic lol
One of the best Nirvana songs for me.
One of their best songs for sure.
The bass line in this song is beautiful.
Are you feeling it now Mr krabs?
Carlo Dixon yeah
i don't remember why i said this
Maybe you were high
Yeah I do
It used to be a song everyone played I think
whos here 2024?
Yo
Yo
Yoooo
Always!!! Brings back so many memories of Spank Thru live when I saw Nirvana back in my day! Many many years ago! So fortunate to have seen them. Listen to them ALL the time still. Never gets old. Only this burnout is getting older.
🎉
He had a really great voice and was great at performing. tragic that things ended the way they did. Nirvana were a great band. the songs are unique
no one cares...
@@istarteverysentencewithbro Apparently you cared enough to reply to my comment. you sound bitter and unhappy. go complain about your sad life to someone else

Disgustingly beautiful! Nirvana will always rock!
Tony the interpretive dancer was definitely underrated when it comes to giving Nirvana their sound.
One of my fav Nirvana songs.
My all time Nirvana favorite song !
Kurt dominava os solos com toda sua técnica....
he was really cute omg
sonia Silva 0:16
Extremely
@sabbracadabra probably not. he was definitely eye candy and easy to market (at first before they knew about his heroin addiction)
@sabbracadabra did you just said that
@sabbracadabra I think you’re wrong
Exactly. Kurt was a pro at making his guitar do things you wouldn't think it ever could.
I like the way he says "Livin without you girl"
The REAL 90`s style omfg for fucking sake this is amazing better than everything. Kurt we need your spirit!.
A MELHOR BANDA !!!!!!!!
One of Nirvana's best songs
1:40 Drums
This whole album was the best album imo. You cannot change my mind. Every song played in this album was absolutely superb. Especially in bloom. Absolutely incredible album.
essa musica pra mim é uma das melhores do nirvana
Pra mim também
Uma das minhas favoritas ❤ tank you kurt❤❤
You could ramble on and on about how technologically inept Kurt is as a guitarist. It doesn’t change the fact that his playing is one of the greatest things I’ve heard in music. Second only to Kurt’s voice and Kurt’s songwriting.
Underrated track
He was amazing.
Best Nirvana song ever!!
The song that made Krist decide to team up with Kurt and start a band back in 85. A great piece of rock history, and it all started with masturbation :D
Luca Martinalli What does that even mean😂 he had it in "Downer" and I never understood what it meant.
Tomnedreb Dude!!! I love e your covers, fucking he'll dude!
It was more the full Fecal Matter tape, but it definitely could've been the song that made Krist think that there was potential in the band. I feel like some asshole at Rolling Stone now, lol. Anyways, love your covers man!
"I can't explain just why we lost it from the start" 🤘😖🎸
Masturbation is the start of all the great things
Eternal Prince of Rock
Meu som favorito dessa banda deliciosa. Uma pena de quem ouviu Nirvana e não entendeu nada.
1991: You're just a band.
1992: You're the biggest band in the world.
0:49 my favourite part 😍
All the beggining it's so pretty
I can feel it...I can hold it!
Jedna z moich ulubionych piosenek Nirvany.

I love "The Muddy Banks of Wishkah Sounds." Can you change Nirvana Sound to The Muddy Banks of Wishkah Sounds?"
I love his guitar! Heart Shaped Box (The Muddy Banks of Wishkah) Perfect!!
1:04 shit gets real
That Reading 1992 CD is fantastic, so happy I got a copy of it live later on.
The look on Kurt's face at 0:18 always gets me
I agree he looks like a funky lil goober.
Kurt was a genius on the gitarr love Kurts voice love all of him 🎸🎸🎸💯💯💯🚶❤️
0:15 "Oh when i was a cowboy"
