Who should I react to next?
Nirvana - Where did you sleep last night. Is another great song, its a cover of a much older song.
Watch them live at reading 91 its iconic
You MUST do the foo fighters now
@@pacificcoastpiper3949 The Pretender
Waiting on the Sky to Change by Starset feat Breaking Benjamin
If you want to hear the power of Cobain’s voice you only have to listen to Where did you sleep last night. He kills it live the unplugged version. I don’t know how he didn’t shred his voice.
He did, regularly.
That MTV Unplugged is one of the best examples of him straining his voice to the point of failure. When his voice sounds like it cracks like that of a teenager, that's because it does. He never had full control over any of it. If it sounds unhealthy, it is.
And it wasn't just his voice. They had a backup guitarist that day, in case Kurt forgot how to play or couldn't play at all. He was already quite far gone by that time.
This is, arguably, the most famous grunge song, ever! The second Nirvana album, "Nevermind", from which this song comes was the flagship tune/anthem of grunge in the '90s. The quiet-to-loud pattern defined them and the movement to an extent. This entire album is AMAZING!!! Other notable tunes are "Come as You Are," "Lithium," "In Bloom", and "Territorial Pissings." I personally love "Breed" too.
Not just grunge but any genre..
The "Hello Hello" refrain should actually read "Hello, hello , hello, how low". Kurt loved playing with words and the sound of them in his lyrics.
I was about to post this info😊
Nice spot.
Also the "Teen Spirit" reference isn't about bullies putting it in his school locker.
He was living in a small apartment in Olympia, WA and his girlfriend at the time came in and smelled Teen Spirit deodorant. She thought that she had busted Kurt with a former GF who used Teen Spirit, hence SMELLS LIKE Teen Spirit.
This song changed everything, not just my personal understanding of music as a 15 years old when it came out, but the music world as a whole. For me there was a time before Nirvana, and then one after it. And it was so much better after.
Me too my man. I was luckier to be a little younger. It was a huge game changer. It altered everything for me.
You have to watch the Weird Al version, which makes fun that no one can understand the lyrics.
I was also gonna comment that.
YES
Nirvana liked weird Al too. He thought it was going to be a food parody but weird Al said nah it will be about no one understands what is being sung
1000 times THIS
I agree that Maggie should hear the Weird Al version (and see the video). I really think she would enjoy it.
Minor correction: The song title has nothing to do with bullying. Kurt’s girlfriend at the time was wearing the deodorant, when their mutual friend Kathleen Hanna, of Bikini Kill, Le Tigre, Julie Ruin and general Riot Grrl fame, teasingly wrote on the wall ”Kurt smells like Teen Spirit” during a very drunken party.
This song changed music. It's hard to overstate how important this song is to generation X. The music of the late 80s and early 90s had become anodyne and formulaic, with lots of bands where the guys had big hair and wore makeup. And then this song came along, punched the hair bands in the face and stole their lunch money to buy cigarettes.
Tom Petty said it best: (after talking about the big hair bands) "And then Kurt came in like a Phoenix, he cut them down like wheat before the sickle, you know? *makes cutting sound* You Are DONE!" Love that quote.
I don't see how having big hair and wearing markup was a problem, and I'm sure Kurt wouldn't thing that's a problem either! Whether you like the hair band music or not.
@@tinntinnamp the identical looks weren't the problem; the formulaic, soulless music was the problem. Then these guys came along.
@@edminchau811 exactly! We were tired of soulless manufactured “power ballads”! I was a teenager in South Georgia that drove a 1965 Ford truck and worked on a cotton farm in the Summer……. And I still remember where I was the first time I heard it. When I have gone back to visit from Texas I have shown my wife and kids the spot. That’s how big that song was to our generation!
@@julianmallach348 god damn I love Tom petty lol that dude was a real one for sure
He plays guitar on every song they sing. It was a three piece band. Energy was high as heck....just like this or more when I saw him live....
Three piece group until they toured and Antony started bustin out dance moves 🤣🤣 if ya know ya know…I think it’s great
In the U.S., we now have a national suicide hotline number, 988.
The drummer you never see because his head's down and his hair's long, is Dave Grohl. He founded and lead the band Foo Fighters on guitar and vocals after the death of Kurt Cobain. You've probably heard their songs without knowing who they were as well - "My Hero", "Everlong" and many more. Unfortunately, the Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins died earlier this year at the age of 50. You may have seen a lot on the web about him due to a tribute concert a few weeks ago.
Kurt really disliked the 'popularity and accessibility' of this song. What Maggie hasn't noticed, is Dave Grohl on drums!
If Kurt was alive I feel like he would be the first to say not to take everything he says too seriously.
That’s why he deliberately wrote it like that…
@@Jordan-Ramsesthis. Half the time he was fking with interviewers
Kurt certainly didn’t mind the money.
Watch a live version. Yes, he can sing it just like this live!
Weird AL did a parody of this song called "Smells like Nirvana" and the premise of the parody is how no one can understand what they are singing.
AL always likes to get permission from the song owner/artist before he does a parody. And when he asked Kirt if he could do one Kirt said yeah. And then asked "is it going to have something to do with food?" (Weird AL having a penchant for food based parodies) and AL said "no its going to be about how no one can understand your singing" Kirt puased for a second and replied that's funny. Or something like that as the story goes.
And Al used all the same people in the his video..cheerleaders and janitor....etc
@@supercrew63 like the same people?? Iirc nirvana put out flyers asking for regular ass people to come in as extras, even high school kids
@@mookiestewart3776 I don't know about all the extras but cheerleaders and janitor for sure.
A great song of somebody going through depression. RIP Kurt.
Hey man everything will be fine, just try to make your good memories lift you up. you are not alone.
Maybe
Maybe and I believe that he was always honest about his state of mind and didn't pretend or try to hide away.
I won't try 2 xplain what the lyrics is about, it has many layers and one can relate from different perspectives but I feel both enlightened and sad.
I kind of get it and then not, but there is a feel of what describes that generasjon, what is lost, critisism if what goes or not and there is no conclusition. "Oh well, whatever never mind."
I feel ambivalent every time I hear this song. On the tip of discovering some "thruth" and what it is all about and then it slips, but that's poetry and how I see the lyrics, the song, the power&intensity all come together in this masterpiece.

Concrete Blond is fantastic and underrated. They did a cover of Leonard Cohen song, Everybody knows. And also Joey was popular back in the day.
A great live version was Live At The Paramount, Seattle 1991.
Yes. That version of Drain You. That's a must listen.
Man, you said in the intro your first Nivana song was the David Bowie cover of "The Man Than Sold The World". This song...This was the song that changed the world of music. I do not even say that lightly. It was an atomic bomb to the music scene. Nirvana was my very first concert. A small club in St. Louis. A few months before they blew up. I was 7. My teenage cousin took me. I remember everything about it. How amazing they were, Kurt pointing at me on my cousin's shoulders in between a song saying, "That kid should be in bed." And then also the riot. Weird that at 7 I wasn't scared. But Mississippi Nights was massacred that night
This song was the last song recorded for the Nevermind album. Kurt's voice was shot from singing the other songs, and it was basically giving out in the "a denial!". But they captured a very interesting tone and rawness that defined Grunge.
That video shoot was really something. Apparently the director was very controlling and stuffy on set. He was very specific about shots and what the audience of extras could and couldn’t do. So at the very end when they were allowed to come out and dance, the whole group of them just went nuts. Kurt said they were probably sick of the director bossing them around all day. So all that crazy chaos and smashing everything was totally real, the whole set exploded into a frenzy of wild freedom.
I always thought the lyric went "Acting stupid is contagious" LOL
me too
A good live performance of this song is on 'Saturday Night Live' in the year 1992.
I think this song deserves a more serious approach.
I believe the actual lyrics are “hello hello hello HOW LOW”
When my not yet 1 year old son saw and heard this song on MTV back when at his lunch one day he started banging his head! My boys got to hear some great music!!
😆Find the random emote that decided to sneak in 🤣. Rockin reaction Maggie!❤️🔥🤘
Often, people hear a song on the radio, but don't know who sang it.
I saw Nirvana in concert in 1993. Best concert ever. Sounds just like this in concert.
That was a Chorus pedal with the depth set really deep. No Wah pedal used!
I kind of get it but then it slips away and I am left ambivalent. Everything is so powerfull, aggressiv and at the same time so wounderable, lost and sad about this song. It comes across so strong and have made an impact on me that have lasted for 30+ years. I xperience a mix of emotions and get moped to tears every time I hear it and it's an enigma. A gem of a song!
Next: Weird Al Yankovic: Smells like Nirvana! (With his genius interpretation of the lyrics: „What is this song all about? Can‘t figure any lyrics out…!“)
The song title was because an ex girlfriend (who was in some bands herself) wrote on the wall that "Kurt Smells Like Teen Spirit". Many many years later he asked if he could use it as a title for a song.
Nice reaction, Maggie! Who knew back in the day that Nirvana would become so iconic? I like their song Lithium. It might be a good follow-up for a reaction.
Nirvana - Where did you sleep last night (live on MTV unplugged)
Nirvana - Lake of fire (live on MTV unplugged)
Both are cover songs, both are also amazing performances.
Would be cool to see your reaction to those 😊
I love this song and watching the cheerleaders turn into anarchists hahahah!
This song got soo much play on MTV, but how many people watching realized how tall the bassist is? He is 6' 7"!
brilliant reaction as always , so funny.
This one is more energetic than The Man Who Sold the World video you reacted to because that one was 'unplugged', i.e., acoustic and the band was clearly not all that happy with that premise. Remarkable what electricity can do for a potato on the table. (lol) Just shows how much Spirit counts in a song even without knowing the lyrics. Loved your reaction. 🥳
Thanks so much! 🥳💖
@@maggiereneemusic you rock 🤘
"The Man who sold the World" is a David Bowie song... so it's just Kurt's interpretation of the music/lyrics. And yes, being acoustic changes the whole dynamics of the song too.
@Deadmozs I was aware it was a Bowie song, from the album of the same name. I was simply comparing Nirvana and especially Kurt unplugged and electric, even live Nirvana. To me it seemed like Kurt wanted an electric guitar in his hands.
@@mikenolan8044 Did not get that vibe at all
I remeber when this played on the radio back in the 90s a lot
Maggiereneemusic you are can Rock N Roll and you have a Awesome Personality.
While Nirvana is credited as the leader of the grundge revoltion the real "first grunge Band" was. Mother Love Bone. Unfortunately the lead singer Andrew Wood died of a drug overdose after there first album. Members of MLB actually went on to form Pearl Jam with Eddie Vetter. Alice in Chains song Would was written about Wood . The band Band Temple of the Dog was a super group formed as a tribute as well. It included Eddie Vedder and Chris Cornell who was Andrew Woods roommate. Go check out Chloe Dancer/Bone China by MLB you will be glad you did.
Kurt was the classic tortured artist. He was the spearhead of the Seattle punk/grunge movement.
His passing was tragic and self-inflicted, but his ideals of having the kids not in the cool cliques starting their own style and being heard was his legacy.
Kurt sadly took his own life in 1994 aged 27. He shot himself with a shotgun. He was married to Courtney Love. A huge loss to music 😔🙏🏻
Unless Courtney's the one who shot him.
She sounds so honest and authentic. I have to watch all her reactions for sure. I love down to earth and humble people. Much love from Puerto Rico. Kurt was so advanced in my opinion. Same with Axel Rose and AC⚡ DC
Ok, now you Got to see Weird Al’s parody of this song. Smells Like Nirvana.
If you've seen the movie "Moulin Rouge" this song is performed in a cabaret style by the Windmill's performance team
I would love to have you at a metal concert, Maggie! There's really no feeling like having the sound pulse through your body. Watching a live performance on TV is one thing, but being at a live performance is utterly fantastic!
Oh yeah, and working for Live Nation had it's perks. 😁🤘🏽
"lake of fire" o "plateu" from unplugged
Love this song it came out when I was in 1st grade and it was the sound of my youth the lyrics are like decayed poetry
The drop away from the distorted guitar riff serves to provide dynamics and contrast, making the distortion feel that much heavier.
It's not weird that you've heard it. It's one of the most well known songs of all time. It would be weird if you haven't heard it.
It's like Kurt when writing the song thought "OK 'libido' is cool, sexy and angsty, what rhymes with libido?.." thumbs through dictionary "Mulatto! Whatever that is......Albino!!......mosquito! Wow that last one sucks, but OK..."
The song of a generation. Not mine, but loved it anyway!
Listen to their song, where did you sleep last night, the MTV unplugged version.... if u wanna know about his live vocal range & a chilling performance.
Nice reaction Maggie, for the longest time, I never knew those lyrics. The story on him being bullied in school, I understand how he feels, I was one of those loners, and a quiet, probably still today. The party hat emoticon, 🥳 let's be cheerful. Did you like the cheerleaders? And the janitor?
Grunge Rock !!! The revolution !!! from France
Kurt was a fan of poetry
You should check out Foo Fighters. The drummer in this song is the Guitar Player and singer for Foo.
Dam , I saw them live in London , they was great, "im a potato" gets me now
I’ve always been impressed by Kawehi’s cover of Nirvana’s song “Heart Shaped Box”.
You should watch the Weird AL Yankovic version.
Well well this album came out when I just started high School I was a freshman just started and it's going to tell you my age I guess and this band helped me through high School I mean I just felt like we weren't alone because all three Middle School I was bullied and I knew it was going to follow me in high school and I just hated every moment of that thought of having to go through high school being picked on and feeling alone and this band made me not feeling alone like I felt there were others out there that knew what I felt like
Now you should watch the Weird Al parody of this song.
They sang this song live and inserted the lyrics from the song more than a feeling by the band boston
Hi Maggie!
I’m not sure where you read that someone put Teen Spirit deodorant in Kurt’s locker to be a bully, but that is not true.
It’s not the story.
Bikini Kill members Toni Vail (Kurt’s Girlfriend at the time) and Kathleen Hanna, Activist, Feminist and singer for Bikini Kill (Also now King AD Rock of the Beastie Boys’ Wife) wrote “Kurt Smells Like Teen Spirit” on his wall in Sharpie as a joke.
They came upon a can of the deodorant spray and thought it was a funny trendy name and so as a friendly joke they decided it would be cool to trash Kurt’s apartment and deface his walls.
After Tobi and Kurt broke up, from the ashes of those memories, this song was born.
The riff itself is sort of a play on Boston’s mega hit, “More Than A Feeling.”
I could not even begin to TRY to explain how explosive this song was when it hit MTV in 1991.
Kurt had successfully written history’s ultimate dark Pop hit disguised as a Punk Rock song.
This song performed in 1991 at the Paramount or 1992 at Reading are great live versions of this song.
I don't know about putting it in his locker (honestly girls did that to me too, same brand) but I've always hear that his girlfriend at this time wrote on his wall "Kurt smells like Teen Spirit".
There was this wild and wonderful moment in time when the world blew up in a conflagration of guitars. This song led the way but was joined by a parade of Seattle bands, disparate yet sympathetic, who also broke within months of each other.
Now you absolutely MUST watch Smells Like Nirvana.
Thank you so much for putting up the number for the Suicide Prevention Hotline. ❤
man who saved the world is a david bowie cover
Brilliant album 👌
Listen to BREED , it's live off this album with a video
Check out Where did you sleep last night from unplugged.
The drummer is Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters. Review 'All My Life' or 'Everlong'
Thanks for mentioning about Dave Grohl. Unbelievable drumming
If you're interested, Nirvana performed an "unplugged" version for MTV and you can concentrate on the vocals more.
Nirvana will blow your mind... Literally. Just ask Kurt.
kurt had a twang to his voice from living in rural washington.
Need to react to Weird Al "Smells Like Nirvana" now
Just to clarify a point you read, they did NOT put “teen spirit” in his locker, that’s made up. The song name comes from a girl he was dating (I think Tobi Vail from Bikini Kill) who wore Teen Spirit deodorant and after they had been petting pretty heavy his room mate wrote “Kurt smells like teen spirit” on their wall with marker.
Thats from a biography of Kurt Cobain.
I never really got into them when it first came out, as I heard them sing it live on Top Of The Pops in the UK and thought it was terrible.
It was only later that I found out that the BBC, where the bands and singers usually mime their songs, had allowed Kurt to sing live, but they had to mimic playing the instruments to a backing track. They were unhappy, so Kurt sabotaged the vocals, and the rest just messed around. It was only after this that I started to enjoy this song and have a laugh at their live performance. Needless to say, they never got invited back to the BBC to play this track. It is worth checking it yourself, even if you don't react to it.
Next you should listen to their MTV Unplugged version of Where Did You Sleep Last Night, amazing vocal performance with an amazing ending
I would argue Dave’s drumming makes the song. Great riff and everything else, but Dave was the secret weapon back then.
I saw them live a few times. Very fun. BTW it’s Hello Hello Hello Hello How Low?
The band is epic.
Queen introduced me to rock music back in the days, switched to grunge (Nirvana, The Offspring), and then landed in the field of metal music (SOAD)^^
You might want to research Nirvana's drummer - Dave Grohl
The offspring aren't grunge though. A terrible version of pop punk, but not grunge.
This was Nirvana's brekathru song, but not sure if it's their biggest hit - although it's probably the best known 3 decades later. Other major songs include "Come as You Are", "Polly", and "Heart-shaped box". The live unplugged album also features their own songs as accoustic covers, along with covers from other bands and a brief set with The Meat Puppets guesting onstage. "About a Girl" and "Where Did You Sleep Last Night" are notable tracks
HOW THE HELL DID I MISS THIS?!
if you play this in live, in exactly this way, i think it immpossible and even if it is, ther will be an earthquake, he did play the song but he changed lot of things. cause this song is very heavy !
I still remember the first time I heard this song. It was unlike anything I listened to at the time.
Don’t worry nobody else knew the words either!!!
I like!
now u have to see ; "smels like nirvana" by weird all yankovic, thats a great rabitwhole for future content.
Would love to see you react to Come As You Are by Nirvana
Kurt Cobain is a legend.
To answer your question, you probably DON'T want to hear them do this live. The band was AMAZING in small clubs and had a ferocity that simply defied belief. Their ascension into the public eye catapulted them into huge venues that simply didn't allow the music to translate and they responded by mocking themselves and their own popularity to the detriment of performance. Fun but awful. I caught their first show outside their home turf when they ventured down to Portland and then saw them several times as they moved up the club ladder. Their show at the now-defunct Fox Theater was EPIC but once they moved past the 1200-capacity halls it was all over. Sadly, it seems there was little documentation of the earliest days when they were at their best. There's one called "Live, Tonight, Sold Out" that really shows the early days and I'm sure there are clips of it running around the internet.
Weird Al Yankovich covered this video using all the same people(cheerleaders,janitor etc...) his version is called Smells Like Nirvana...it is good...
THANKS !!!!! Wiil never tire of this !!!!! What an artistic video !!!!
Now must get back to the divine TARJA !!!!! She just gave a hint about something new. Could even be a Tango !!!!!!
💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘
What I know is here in the town I live in back in the late 80's early 90's Kurt Cobain himself lived here on the same street I used to live on.
Hello, hello, hello. do an analysis of this song in a live performance. at the same time, you'll see how well he performs it. at the same time he plays, sings and jumps energetically around the stage))
Echo that Weird Al version excellent. Nirvana loved it also. When this song came out hair metal was dominant, and Nirvana and grunge reminded people that soul and substance also count. Guns N Roses also and hair metal said "uh oh". Fyi....this song blew up but everyone was unclear on the words. Like punk, the spirit was more important that musical perfection
