The drummer looks like he could start a band, sing and play basically every instrument
He should try the guitar even
Really? Lol
Nah, no talent bum.....
Don’t think he ever could make it... oh wait
Seems likeable enough
"He's talented"
Rock Gods usually are.
The ones that truly stand the test of time are!
Kurt is more than a rock god he's just ,everything, NIRVANA!
It would be a shame if he got addicted to heroin or something
@@guitarantics2043 It would also be a shame if he married someone named Courtney.
He was ....
I can't believe there are people who have never heard this song before. But it really makes me smile to see how he feels about this song.
Yea true but u gotta know a lotta people listen to different kinds of music and doesn’t really listen to heavy metal like that
i know, right.
@@dominickraheem8459 heavy metal? that's grunge
zoomers...
It's probably for attention
"He's talented... Whoever he is." That was Kurt Cobain and yes, he was talented. Artists like him, Jeff Buckley, and Amy Winehouse left us far too soon.
Don’t hear people mention Jeff Buckley much, which is too bad. He was amazing.
rest in peace, kurt.
27 club, rest in peace to all of them.
amy winehouse not even finna miss her she ignored advice and her songs suck bro she ignored advice to go to rehab but she didnt so im not gonna even say rip
spelling much?
It's hard to imagine someone who has never heard smells like teen spirit.
It's the people that always skip past the rock stations on the radio, if the young folks even listen to the radio anymore.
@@satevo462 i doubt it. But hearing a song and waiting to hear it again was such a thrill for me.
Thats mean that we are Old people....old school...hahahha
Because it’s not true
@@ttaayylloorrmmtt what's not true.
I’ve finally reached the point in my life where I realize I’m old. People don’t know who Nirvana is???
welcome. been here a while. its tough
Most teens do
I love Kurt Cobain
Nah Not old yet,most teen kids who play guitar or like hard rock music know who Nirvana are ,and since Kurt died young,he is very relevant to kids for generations to come,and who are all those teens and twenty somethings at Foo fighter concerts?🎸🎸
Well, I'm 18 and I do know who Nirvana is!
I'm 98 years old and have been banging to Nirvana since they dropped this album. They were so dope and lit. Never stop till I drop.
🫡
goddamnn 98
im 99 and i feel fine.
do i take another dip into my wine
cant drop wont drop.
breakin to the sound of the body clock
A year ago... U still here, right?
are you alive master?
Dr. Dre actually said this album was his top fave of all time. And ironically Im actually a 90’s r&b and soul fan, not a rock fan, but I love Nirvana. Truthfully why I like this band most of all is because of Kurt Cobain. He was a special gem and he just fascinated me and inspires me. I loved their music as well but I think knowing more about him made me appreciate and love the music 1000 times more. I remember the first time I heard this song it was euphoric. I can see why it became so popular. Even though he hated it lol
No wonder. Nevermind is one of the most fun albums of all time, it has an insane range of emotion from complete excitement with Smells like Teen Spirit to sorrow with Polly
Yeah, Nirvana was hella good!!! 👌🏾🥰👏🏾❤️🔥💀👍🏾
That album was like a drug. So many songs gave me goosebumps.
"Whoever this guy is, he's talented" - yes mate, most would agree that Kurt Cobain was indeed talented.
His wife was even a marksman
@@mikemath9508 finally someone who knows that courtney murdered kurt
@@tendiboi912 My band name idea was KKK. Kourtney Killed Kobain
@@mikemath9508 you are a fucking genius
kinda, a little bit 😏
This guy's 2021's reaction = Everyone's reaction in 1991.
I'm so glad people still enjoy listening to this band today.
Genre-defining, earth-shattering, iconic. This dude is blessed while a whole new world is opening for him.
I remember exactly where I was and what I was doing the first time I heard it. (Walking to my dorm with friends and it was blaring off the upper patio of one of the "fancy" dorm rooms.) I don't think I can say that about any other song. I was immediately obsessed.
I'm 14 and Nirvana is my favorite band. In Utero is the best Nirvana album IMO
@@MrManfly Though there are many covers in different genres that also bring out the haunting beauty in the melody. Especially in solo piano. Kurt Cobain was a genius when it comes to melody. Check out some covers some time. You'd be surprised because the melody is that strong.
TRUE AF i remember those face when slts came out
It makes me feel old af hearing someone not even knowing how to pronounce their name, let alone never heard their music, but it's awesome seeing younger generations hearing them for the 1st time and liking it. 👍 they definetly were a 1 of a kind band with a very original sound to this day. No other grunge band ever could imitate their sound.
I cracked up every time he said nirVANna 😂
hes just playing up the reaction and playing on peoples stereotypes of the young generation in order to reel in views. He's heard rock before, he probably knows who nirvana is. he takes the piss too - _"he can play guitar??" "who ARE they" "they're TALENTED??" "I've never heard this????"_ gotta rate the hustle though its hilarious 😂. He's made a hundred rock reactions where it's his FIRST TIME HEARING ROCK. but its harmless, it makes people happy and he benefits so its just quite funny
@@sabrina9249same
I’m 13 I know who nirvana is I know how to say there name I love them it’s cool though he sees the best band ever
@@bentownsend4017yeah it's a little suspicious but the vids are fun to watch
Man, the pure joy on your face during the song... and the disappointment when it ended. That was just awesome to see how much you truly enjoyed the song.
i’d pay a great deal of money to hear this song for the first time again.
Ya, can you imagine going back to reliving having your mind blown?
@@moonglow630 there’s no feeling like finding a new great song
@@electricedits2046 agreed.
@Willchan18 I agree, teen spirit probably isn’t in my top 25 songs by them, but it’s just mind blowing to hear nirvana for the first time
@@electricedits2046 This is to you and your OP reply.. YOU...... FKN.....WHAT!?!?!?!? (this next bit more you) Teen Spirit is not in your top 25!?!?!... NAME ME 24 ABOVE FKN SMELLS LIKE TEEN SPIRIT!! That, Come as you are and Lithium are guaranteed top 5 to any fan!!! - I'll even include as extra like a set of steak knives COVERS being "Jesus wants me for a sunbeam" & "Where did you sleep last night" AND... if you call now!... "Lake of fire" - all 3 off unplugged and are covers!, to summarize... Teen Spirit is the adopted theme song of an entire generation, which is my generation. If you were in erg year 8/9 (not sure what Americans call that... middle school maybe?.. you're a young teen anyway) when this came out then damn you missed out on glory days.
Oh you sweet summer child. “What is a libido?” 😂😂😂😂 so pure
Hahahah he has a lot to see
Yeah he's a child who really don't know what's going on in the world... Instead to trying to say something on youtube i would start reading about music history first...
Look it up. It's an important word to know - and an important thing to have. You've got one, so you should know what it's called. And 'that guy' is Kurt Cobain. Look him up, too. He's sort of a big deal. ; (
I don't think he knew what it meant because it is not a term used very often nowadays
@@claudiusmalina1371 you don't have to know anything about anything to enjoy music and find meaning in it.
I wish for a band like Nirvana today. They came out of nowhere and became world stars overnight. They started at student parties and sometimes paid to perform. Against the norm, they rolled up the music world.
Theres hella bands, they just arent popular because most things have already been done with the grunge genre and its hard to innovate or make something that becomes a hit.
“He is talented…” haha, yes, and literally ‘the sound’ of a whole generation :)
No song in HISTORY, is as culture-changing as this. None. This song (and music video) flat-out KILLED an entire genre (hair metal), changed fashion, recording/engineering tactics, and ushered in decades of a new kind of music. Kurt's voice man......chills......always chills
Yeah but I'd have to give it to the Sex Pistols with Anarchy in the UK.
@@titianobsidian6549 NICE. Yep great call
Exactly 👏👏👏
Oh fuck, it's not true.
They were a giant band that towered over the whole decade of the 90s but your statement is quite ridiculous. Genre's have come and gone throughout musical history.
"The one with the green guitar is really talented... " Well, I've got some bad news for you...
I'm so sad for him - I hate that he doesn't know. Kurt is so missed.
Me who is a lefty and plays guitar and has an insanely close voice to Kurt Cobain 😔 Rip Kurt
😔😥
Yap...hove much you want to end your life when you take 3 times more heroine then you can and shuts your head of with a shotgun!Disaster...
This song changed the Rock and roll world in 1991. The late, great Kurt Cobain was the singer/guitarist. There were just 3 in the band: Cobain, Krist Novoselic on bass and Dave Grohl on drums. Dave Grohl went on to front the Foo Fighters, band that's still topping charts nearly 30 years later. Kurt Cobain tragically killed himself with a shotgun at age 27 in 1994.
Honestly it’s so cool seeing someone’s first time reaction to something you’ve heard all your life, it really makes me question how ppl don’t know about Nirvana but I like that your giving different types of music a chance, love the vid💙
Your reaction to this video is most entertaining I've ever seen. I go back and watch from time to time just to see the delight on your face!
Fun fact:
Kurt Cobain wrote this song intending to write the ultimate pop song. Seriously. Lyrics that mean nothing but are catchy and sound good.
Guess he trolled em good
Yes, but there was a girl in Kurt's life and she wrote ,,Kurt smells like teen spirit" over his bed.
@@kubus7717 wasn't that a popular girls deodorant at the time?
@@shaunoleary9774 you're right
He wrote this song trying to sound like the Pixies.
He's gonna lose his shit when he finds out who the drummer is
Why
its dave grohl...he is still alive..!!! nirvana's drummer...DAVE GROHL.
lol foo fighters
@@lukepatten2166 ....he was the former drummer of nirvana...until kurt cobain died...later he formed the band foo fighters his the lead vocalist...
@@angiealbania3133 LOL my bad I’m only 15 dk much about nirvana or rock and roll in general
There's something just so primal about Nirvana's energy on this track. Undeniable. They were the biggest rockstars in the world at this time.
God I Bleach, Polly, and Rape Me.
I can literally remember exactly where I was when I first Nirvana, it's literally seared into my soul.
This makes me so happy to see how much he loves it. Just shows how influential nirvana is. Lmao when he said “whoever this is is talented” you get so addicted to learning about Kurt’s life and watching his interviews and lives. It makes me happy because I grew up with this and ye he does kinda look like shaggy 😂 aww
Smiled from ear to ear watching this kids reaction.. This song will forever be a banger
No doubt!!! 💯💯💯💯
Some good music
Me too. It was awesome! i didn't want to tell him Kurt Cobain died though. kinda how I felt when I discovered Mac Miller only to find out that he's gone too. I can never see him in concert. Bummer. Bigger bummer that I know he had his best stuff inside him just bursting to be written.
I am 41 years old and this group still excites me like the first day. They have so much energy. Kurt rest in peace.
I’m 47 and I still remember the first time I heard this song. It’s the only song that effected me that significantly. I was heartbroken when he died.
I am 31, and I feel the same. Respect
Same
I'm SEVENTY and have loved this from the start!
I’m 41 also… I learned to play because of nervanna..😂
Watching you hear this for the first time was like reliving when I experienced this when it first came out. Loved watching this!
love your thorough analysis at the end :D
The drummer from nirvana started his own band after kurt Cobain died it’s called the foo fighters you should check them out if you haven’t already
Everlong.
Yep! That's a good idea ! \m/
Dave Grohl is his name and the Foo Fighters is the shit. Seen live. Was a cross between comedy and music concert. Dave's a clown. In a good way.
Dave G is my 6th favorite guitar god
Same with pat smear although he did not join until nirvanas last album
I always get sad when I see one of these young folks on RUclips enjoying Nirvana for the first time and knowing that they are going to find out what happened for the first time soon. That promise being cut short seems to be an endless cycle for Nirvana.
It's heartbreaking.
Amen !
Yes. 😢
(I’m 17) My first time finding out was when I was at a guitar centre when I was 13 and looking at the wall and seeing a picture of Kurt with 1967-1994 written under it
im a young guy and this song was the first song i learned from my first guitar teacher who passed away recently. i will never forget this song and it is a huge part of my life to this day
the dissapointment on your face when it ended, was EPIC! Love your reactions! Stay Awesome Bro!
Love that you have lyrics up on screen. So convenient. As someone who suffers from hearing loss I appreciate it so much. Not to mention a fun reaction. Would love to understand your connection to LFR Family cause I love that dude as well. Liked and Subscribed :)
*chuckles* meanwhile all us 35+ year olds are like "how could you NOT know Nirvana?"
Haha yeah. I'm glad I got to know them at an early age, at around 14. 16 now. Wish more people my age liked em too. Not only cus they're legendary but also cus I'd really like some people to hang out with who aren't just hooked on hip hop and pop lol
@@Frosty05 start playing it around your friends who knows they get into it!
I'm 21 and literally thought this was a joke in the beginning
Um, I said the same thing, and I’m only 16
36 here, feeling attacked. Lmao! But yes the world changed and got a little darker in April '94. I was only 9 but it rocked my world.
Shout out to the people who had self control and didn’t comment about this mans pronunciation of nirvana
Why? What's wrong with the way he pronounced Nirvanna?
@@chrisoverholt2325 it’s pronounced nirvarna not nirvahnah
@@thalias6945 that’s also wrong. It’s nir-Vaughn-uh
Trying so hard not to hurt someone over that
He pronounces it exactly the way that guy who is announcing Nirvana on the In Bloom video pronounces it.
Hella fun watching you enjoy this!!
I just found your channel a few days ago and its so awesome seeing your reactions to music and politics etc its regreshing
Nirvana (Nir-vah-na”) changed the world with their own style of “grunge” music. The band’s members are Kurt Cobain (lead singer), Krist Novoselic (bass), and Dave Grohl (drums). After Kurt died in 1994, Dave started his own band, the Foo Fighters. 🙂
“What is a libido?” Oh, doll! You’re so young, you wring my heart. ❤️
Ooh, libido?! I know that one! That's the game you play where you walk under the stick and the stick keeps getting lower and lower, so you have to bend yourself backwards so you don't hit the stick while you try not to fall on your butt! Fun game! 😉🤣
How could you forget Pat? Pat Smear? Come on!
Also, it’s Novoselic.
kurts death also changed how we handle suicide and famous death in the media.
Kurt also had some solo stuff that got released later! :) Also pilot lady don't forget about Pat Smear!!!!!!!!! 😡
@@amyhuggins9920 I corrected the spelling...thanks! And, I didn’t forget Pat Smear. This reaction is to “Smells Like Teen Spirit”, which was released in September, 1991. Pat didn’t join the band until 1993. 🙂
4:20 "Whoever that guy is", Now that just broke my heart.
Me too. Still feels like yesterday. :(
It’s come to this now...now I know how my dad felt when I was a kid and reacted to Zeppelin like, “who’s this?” We’re there now lol
Don't let it ...he knew who Kurt was...this is all just for show to get your subscription and your reaction...so obvious when he start singing a verse half way thru...no way it was the first time hearing it!!!!
@@margomccallum8636 He only started singing after he heard the hook the song repeats as evidenced by the posted lyrics you can tell his reaction was genuine by his laugh lines and shock at his eyes and when the song ended and he has said in the video the sample i.e the chorus was used in a tick tock so he has heard the chorus just not the song regardless you can tell by the laugh lines around his eyes he had genuine entertainment which is all the authenticity you need when listening to nirvana
Rip kurt
It’s wonderful watching someone discover something truly amazing!
Nirvana was the beginning of grunge.
We had never heard music like this before.
And coming from the 80's rock, heavy metal and 70's disco beats, that we somehow ended up dragging with us into the 80's, this was completely groundbreaking music.
They also got recognition, after their MTV Unplugged sessions (recorded in November of 1993,), but Kurt died shortly after they recorded, on April 5th 1994, and it didn't air until November 1994. So he never really got to know, how much he changed music for us, but they were acclaimed and awarded after his passing.
Nirvana will always be known, as the fathers of the 90's Grunge era.
Ps. Try YouTubing "Kurt Cobain's death"
no it wasn’t lmao it just made grunge popular, there were plenty of grunge bands before nirvana
Check out "Come as you are", "Breed", "Lithium", and then maybe dip your toes in the Unplugged at MTV stuff.
Don't forget In Bloom
Any song from unplugged
Yeah but they all sound similar I think he should check out something in the way instead so he gets a feel for different ways nirvana comes in.
And all of Bleach and In Utero as well!
And "Very Ape". It sounds a lot like that The Prodigy song... I think it was "Voodoo People"
"What is a libido?" Oh, you sweet innocent child :-D
Don’t tell him. Keep him innocent.
@@Shawney-jf6kc I learnt not that long ago
@@jonasy847 oh crap nooo. Stay innocent. Stay out of troubles in your life.
Lol I just came to the comment section to look for this comment lol

It makes me so happy seeing you hear and feel the songs I grew up with.
It’s so much fun watching you discover older , really good, music. 😃 brings a smile every time… thanks Jojo ❤️
His...first...time?
I'm 15 and I grew up listening to Nirvana I'm so shook rn😂Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, they have such powerful songs! Their voices always give me chills, and Teen Spirit never fails at giving me chills😖
Lmao same here
Same here lmfaooo
Best gym song along with down with the sickness
Same
Some people are cultured while others aren’t.. Especially in modern times
Dude this band is legendary. Everyone wears nirvana t shirts. How can you not have at least heard of them. Kurt died in 1994 from suicide. Mans a freakin legend.
Everyone hears something for the first time sometime.
mate he died 27 years ago... this guy is not even 27, but yeah to me too who 42 yrs old its fckin weird someone dont know this song when it was every day on the tv multiply times in the 90's...
@@WalintHUN right? Just surprising that’s all.
@@WalintHUN im literally 16. i was born over 10 years after kurt died and even before nirvana became my favourite band, even i as a ten year old knew all of their more popular songs
@@leviyeet3391 thats cool, but I guess not all 16 yrs old like you ;) to be honest Id on't know many bands from the 60's and 70's either and in the 80's and 90's was much more productive, but yeah still weird someone doesnt know Nirvana coz they were a huge impact to the world not just musically...
This video was amazing. Honest great first reaction. Awesome!
Great reaction to a great song. I was 15 years old when this came out. Looking back, this song, the songs it inspired, and the legions of kids it inspired to make punk/rock music really changed the world in a net positive way, IMO. Myself and many other of the youngest of the Gen-X kids were forever changed and shaped by the 'oh well, whatever! Nevermind!' lyric from this song and ended up being a more tolerant generation because of it. "Whatever man, you do you".
I was 15 too when this song came out. Even in France it was a revolution for our generation. I've never ceased to listen to this band. This is the only band, with SOAD when I was older, that I feel like a part of my identity.
As a guitar player I love how he describes the pitch bending lol. “It’s like when a fart slips out…”
I call it the guitar yodle, lol.
I literally spit out my water when he said that lol hilarious!
Am over here giggling. And when he asked what a libido is . 😂
I'm 55 years old so I've seen a lot of new music come out but I've never seen a song immediately shake up the music world like this one did. Before this it was all flashy "Glam Rock" and all the sudden there are these guys looking all grungy, singing lyrics that made no sense and jumping around like they didn't care. It was like a breath of fresh air. The hair bands were instantly hasbeens and Grunge was in.
Yep! It happened just like that
I love hearing things like this, just wish I could’ve been there to see it happen
Don't know if it's true but I heard that axle rose seen them live and was pissed off because he knew his era was over . Something like that.
completely agree with you, I dont think Krist ever got over his death, so sad, all 3 where genius
I was so glad when this song brought the death of hair metal.
today i got a squire mustang guitar and in smells like teen spirit kurt used a fender jagstang which was his own invention it is a cross between a mustang and a jaguar so now when i play smells like teen spirit with my band it sounds so good!
It gives me SO much joy watching you experiencing SO much joy from this song!!!
I absolutely LOVE seeing the younger generation feeling music I grew up with. I can’t put into words how influential this song was.
Now I know how my parents felt when I was feelin their 70s shit lol
I'm 11 and I like nirvana
im currently growing up with this music fck that new shit
I'm 12 and Nirvana is my favorite band and Heart Shaped Box being my favorite Nirvana song of course right next to Smells Like Teen Spirit
@@toom__s darn right
This song changed the course of music history ... they pretty much set off a whole new genre. It's pronounced Nir-vaa-nuh BTW. Unfortunately the lead singer Kurt Cobain passed away in 94. They're one of the only bands that I really wanted to see live that I'll never get to.
Bruh they killed an entire genre lol and completely turned pop culture over night amd it was violent and beautiful
Nerve-on-ahh
It’s tom-ate-o tom-ott-o, you can pronounce it either way and I’ve heard Kurt in interviews switch between pronunciations depending on the interview. Tho typically he’d say it more like nerve-onn-a especially later interviews
Me too... I would give anything to see them live. I've said it in the comments before, but Kurt Cobain is the reason I learned how to play the guitar. Thanks Kurt!
Everything is new to everyone at some point.
Love your reaction!!
You missed a time I wish everyone had the chance to experience! Nostalgia the greatest & the saddest feeling all rolled into one! It is nice to see somebody get to experience there first time of Nirvana. RIP Kurt!
Totally agree
I lost it when he said acoustic guitar
Bruh, it pisses me off so much 😂😂😭😭
@@tterrabeicul yea me too
He said or electric.
Lol
Well I can see the confusion. It sounds clean in the beginning and then later on the distortion kicks in. A clean guitar sound similar to an acoustic.
I'm just glad to be 41 years old and was around to see these guys in their prime....
Same , that era shaped my teens , thanks for the memories 🙂🙃
Here, here! 😁
Same
same here 42, i i rember when this came out ... amazing
42 also this music shaped my teen years. These damn youngins today don’t have a clue 🤦♀️
Makes me happy to know their drummer went on to rock the world over for decades fronting the Foo Fighters.
Lol loving this!!
“Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious”
Those lyrics spoke to an entire generation. Gen X, which I am no lol.
yep, Gen X, my generation, and proud of it!
that lyric along with "oh well, whatever. nevermind"
@@susannariera Damn Straight sister!! Proud as hell!!!!!!
@@michaelgilbert197 proud of what? I’m tryin to get it.
@@Shawney-jf6kc I'm not gonna speak for anyone else... Proud of our generation for doing what these guys in "Grunge" were doing. They were speaking for ALL of us with their music(esp in their lyrics). Us Gen X'ers were the ones who FINALLY spoke up and said HEY, there's something wrong and stopped sweeping all the messy, dirty, ugly s%#@ in life under the rug". You know, the "grungy" stuff no one wanted to look at.... Gen X brought abuse, neglect, mental health etc., to light... Plus, it's the best sub-genre ever in music history.... imo. Hope that helps. Peace....
I’ve honestly never felt older than I did watching this reaction video, but it’s nice to see these kids get into Nirvana. At a certain point in my youth, they were the biggest band on the planet.
It makes me fell older as well. We collectively as a society don’t listen and grow up with the same movies or music anymore. We had in Australia in the 90’s only 5 tv channels country wide, we listened to rage as a country and we watched the same movie collectively on Sunday nights. I feel so disconnected to other generations because there’s no collective unity anymore. Just my silly thoughts. Anyways. The 90’s were freaking amazing!

It made me happy watching you and remembering the first time I listened to this jam. Sooo good 👏 ✨
I love how excited you get. You really feel good music. Love your reactions

He will always be missed 😢💔

That was the most pure reaction ive ever seen. Love that energy
Loved watching his reaction. So much great music out there. Listen to it all. I’m gonna subscribe
man sure is heartwarming to see you feel the energy of the song for the first time in 2021. this was released in 1991, and it still sounds fresh. peace. funny video , lol
30 years man Hella crazy
@@nicomorrow5639 indeed!!!
This is the most pure reaction ever.
I was 14 years old in 8th grade when this album was released. Blew my mind. Blew every depressed teenager's mind at the time. I feel old when I here this song on the "classic rock" station.
Something about Nirvana just resonated. The music was screaming at the world, much like I wanted to at age 14.
Freakin true.
I was just a little younger than you.
My parents listened to "Real Music" like #Cash, and Elvis I was convinced I didn't like music. Till my uncle showed me Guns N Roses and Prince. They were cool.
But then, I heard this (Come As You Are, specifically) ... and it was like "finding that piece of your soul you never knew was missing" ... Kurt Cobain gave a voice to the voiceless.
Or when the grocery store plays good music all of a sudden..
Exactly. I was the lone alternakid at a conservative rural high school, and this song blew my mind. I wanted to be there, in the video. Stayed up late to see it on 120 minutes on MTV, until I could afford the cassette.
Loved your reaction bro! Total 🔥 Banger! ✌🥁 I was blessed to have been a teenager when this 🔥🥁 was released, many many 🌛's ago now! 😂🤣 Have a beautiful day young man with love light and blessings! 🙏🥁🔥😇🔥🥁🙏💓💓💓
Love your reactions, man. Reminds me of me in the early 90's when I first heard him. .
You probably have seen their most famous t shirt and didn’t realize it was their logo

Everybody's wearing Nirvana t shirts? Idk I don't live in the US
The happy face with the X’s over the eyes. It’s in Asia for sure.

Just the disappointment... XD
thats how we all are lmaooo
This is so cute seeing a young man enjoy a different genre of music!! Brings me much joy 🤩
I paused after his intro an shouted to the other room. “BABE, COME SEE THIS GUY HAVE HIS MIND BLOWN”. Did not disappoint. Now I’m gonna work my way through your playlist 😂
Oh man it makes me sad to hear people talk about Nirvana and not know how amazing they were... Rest In Peace Kurt. Long live Dave! And long live the 90’s!!!
Yeah, but it's so cool that he really liked it.
@@surfingthedarkness Crazy to think I was only about 6 months old when this song was written, now I'm 30 years old and so is this song. My favourite lyrics are: 'A Mulatto, an Albino, a mosquito, my libido!" Especially when you are Biracial and you ask your mum what a Mulatto is...
Mum: "Well, back in the day that's what Biracial people were called." Me: "Okay, cool." Can't believe this guy has never listened to this song. R.I.P Kurt Cobain.
Damn didn’t mention Krist
wtf happened to krist novoselic ?

Man this was funny. Thank you
its a comedy act
😂😂😂 He’s rocking my alma maters on his shirt. I graduated the year this Nirvana joint came out.
Honestly his reaction and giggle is so pure, I completely forgive him for not knowing Nirvana lol, absolutely adorable 😂.
Fun fact - The dancing janitor was an inside joke as to when Kurt worked as a janitor in his old highschool.
LET THERE BE GRUNGE!
Jo Jo discover's grunge in college is this the 90s lolol
HELL YEAH
And Gen X shall rejoice. Amen.
I blinked and now I'm wearing stone wash jeans and an oversized flannel ... wait, when's the last time I washed my hair? Ehh whatever
@@TheAndersox Amen sister!!! Rejoice loud and PROUD!!!!!
Loved your reactions ❤ I couldbt have imagined listening to this song (or any new songs) with the lyrics in front of me lol. It took us weeks to learn!
After all these years they still give me the chills
The 90s were such a great time to be a teen. It was so much fun and the music kicked ass. It was a hard day when we heard Kurt died. RIP ❤
Devastating more like.
No doubt Gen X was something else.
I was in my early 20’s....best time of my life!
Yes... I was on my way to work and stopped by a convenience store for a diet Coke or something. Someone in line said "I can't believe Kurt Cobain died".... I said "what?" I didn't believe him. Bought the paper and sat at the table before work (I worked in a pizza restaurant) and just bawled......
@@christina9841 how old were you? :/
As a metalhead i have to say that it's cute to look at this dude's reaction 😂🤟🏼🔥
His sweet, innocent,pure reaction is the same way I felt after seeing this video the first time in '92 on Nickelodeon.
The video/music that changed my life
Ive been listening to this type of music since I was born haha my dad loved Nirvana
I loved him saying "oh it's over?🙁"... when you listen to Nirvana all you want is more!
That’s why it’s sad they have such a short discography I find my self listning to the box set with some of the bad recordings of even Kurt not sounding amazing awesome cause I just want more
Nirvana changed the game! As a hip hop head, they were undeniable when they hit the scene. So many dope songs! Kurt was so dope!
Nirvana ushered in the Grunge era and are one of the most influential bands of all time so yes they changed the game lol
The song and band that changed absolutely EVERYTHING. I remember the first time hearing Teen Spirit and I had chills, man. It still floors me.
You know it's your first time hearing them when you say Nir (van)a
😂
I'm just being silly LOL you're awesome and I'm so glad that you're introducing yourself to some great music
Most people under the age of 30 don't realize the impact that this song had on the music industry.
I’m one of those
Nirvana did as a whole. Not just this song
Grunge. This is what I grew up to. Raw music, real instruments, no autotune (it didn't exist), not even clicktracks. Soundgarden, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam. The 90s were something else man.
Autotune isn't a bad thing pitch correction software of a very important part of music. Overly used pitch correction can be very annoying though.
I preferred ‘Alice in Chains’ 😉😂🤣 Sorry I couldn’t resist pointing that out even though it was probably an auto correct by your phone, so please don’t take me too seriously as am not taking the Micky out of you! Keep on loving Nirvana though, no matter what happens as they were amazing!
@@markdermody9698 thanks I corrected it. 😀
Basically the same here
You know I'm gonna ask you to rewind the clock just a but further, right. Grunge is awesome, it's Child (Alternative) is awesome. ... but it's predecessor PUNK is where the asthetic comes from.
"I don't have to play well, just loud" was invented by the Ramones, expanded by Joan Jett and the Sex Pistols, before being mastered by Nirvana, and Placebo ... ... only to be reinvented by Alanis Morsette and Garbage, and Jewel (not 'complicated' but 'well written' and 'easy').
I’m from the 90’s and was into grunge, rap and hip hop. And was also growing up with a tv show called rage, I love seeing your happy reaction to hearing it for the first time, but it makes me sad to, so many generations not experiencing things together anymore.
I grew up listening to my parents music on records blaring in the house. Then rage was a music show of all different kinds of musics and eras, all the kids and teens watched it on live tv.
Then movies, in Australia in the early years we only had five channels, and Sunday movies was on one channel and collectivity as a community and country we’d all be watching like re runs of ET, Star Wars, Beverly Hills Cop & many classics.
And now everyone’s missing out on a collective identity, many younger people have no idea what I’m talking about when I mention music or movies, the internet and pay tv & iPhones has disconnected generations instead of knowing the same thing. I feel a loss in unity within society.
Well that only my opinion and of course the older you get you’ll see how nostalgic you’ll become for an easier time!
Enjoy your new discoveries!!! Loving the reactions!!!
All the best, Em
Aw! As an old lady that remembers when this song came out, this warms my heart. And indeed, the guy in the green shirt - Kurt Cobain - was a notable genius. ❤️
You're reaction is exactly what happened to almost everyone that listened to music back in the early 1990's.... It's a great ride with alot of Seattle music
Lmao I thought the same thing watching him
You live in a time where lyrics to songs are at your fingertips. When this song came out, nobody had a clue what he was saying and yet we all sang along anyway. You should check out the parody of this song by Weird Al called "Smells Like Nirvana".
Just realizing how much of the lyrics I had wrong lol
I remember Cobain saying he would have put the lyrics in the booklet if he had known people had trouble understanding him.
I just hate when bands do not provide the lyrics within their albums
Yes I must admit I had no idea until recently 😅
And I forgot the next verse
Oh, well, I guess it pays to rehearse
The lyric sheet's so hard to find
What are the words? Oh, never mind
I live in Seattle, I was 20 when this record came out. Nirvana were big here but they weren't regarded as the best band in town at that time. Tad, Mudhoney, U-Men, Fastbacks, so many other good bands. Then there were the Melvins from southwestern Washington State. Anyone who is interested in learning more about the Seattle scene from that time should really dive-in to the U-Men. They were really well-regarded around town by a lot of the bands who became bigger later-on. They started putting records out in the early-mid 80s.
Yes! Good ol Duff McKagan was in the Fastbacks
Thanks for the tips!! It’s like being back in the nineties! And such quality, very nostalgic for me. Thanks.
Oh my goodness I love that you're listening to Nirvana they're from my teenage years. By the way I love your father and what he stands for and your stuff is awesome as well
