hey tom! great cover! i have a question. do you think one day you could do some kind of gear rundown? maybe show of some of ur amp settings? stay safe!!
One of my favourites... It would have been a great opening for next album... Only by his guitar playing you can hear how he wanted to match drums etc., sick (in a good way).
The last known composition by Kurt Cobain -- also known as "Dough, Ray and Me" -- was first mentioned in a 1994 Rolling Stone interview with Courtney Love, although it didn't surface for another decade. Love's commentary on the song is cryptic, but it may explain the line that sounds like "if I may, cold as ice": "I had asked him after Rome" -- where Cobain overdosed and fell into a coma a month before his suicide -- "to freeze his sperm. So there's this whole thing about freezing your uterus." The song has only been heard as Kurt's acoustic home recording as "Do Re Mi," its title borrowed from the Sound of Music song about the musical scale (note that Kurt plays a descending scale after the chorus). Tuning: Detune the guitar 3/4 of a tone down. (-15 on guitar tuna app) Equipment used: Stella Harmony 1967 guitar Lyrics: And if I may And if I might Lay me down weeping And if I say, what is life? I might be dreaming If I may, what is right? Summertime, see me yield [Pre-Chorus 1] Those years in his body A phrase from his pocket In chains from the no-end, lifelong dream [Chorus] Re mi Re mi Well, do re mi Do re mi [Verse 2] If I may And if I might Wake me up and see me If I do, and if I lie Find me out, to see me And if I'm made, cold as ice I may have to see me heal [Pre-Chorus 2] Raised in his own care Erased from this moment The change from his socket That I may need...

This song is so beautiful and happy, yet so, so so depressing. When you listen to it, you just want to smile. But when you realize it was *THE LAST* thing Kurt ever recording before his death in ‘94, it makes you want to cry. Cry hard.
Despite most nirvanas and cobains songs having relatively simple structure they we're able to elicit such profound emotions, which proves that a song doesn't have to be complex.
It was Kurt’s voice and just the way he was able to communicate emotions and angst. No one since him has been able to do it that way. My generation will always be listening.
God, I'm so frustrated that there was never a complete studio version of this. A definite favourite of mine and so sad that it will never be fully realised by the original band members. That said, the amateur recording does kind of fit the song well and adds to the somewhat eerie and mournful atmosphere.
This Stella upgraded video makes more sense, The Stella makes the sound perfect for Nirvana songs Thanks Tom! (Ohh thanks for putting the tuna app tuning , you could put it on all videos, thanks again)
@@Tomnedreb btw thx for putting GuitarTuna app information man it really helped me u can put that info to your all videos too man that would be great thanks anyway stay safe man we love you
that is song that always keep in my repertoire of nirvana acoustics songs, but my acoustic guitar is broke :( P.d the acoustic guitar was a spanish guitar
Best Nirvana cover and best music of nirvana, dude I have a ask, what the most important thing that I have learn on the guitar to be good at playing Nirvana songs? (Sorry for the bad English)
Hi I just found your covers and i think you're pretty freaking amazing at guitar Can you please do you know you're right in electric guitar? I love that song and I'm sure you'll nail it, you're covers are amazing I subscribed 💖 keep going you're really amazing
Thank You so much for this cover. I absolutely love this song - all the emotion, the feelings, the ambiguity of the lyrics... and the cover is great, as always!
I absolutely love this song and the lyrics. It’s also heartbreaking in that it gives a very strong indication of the direction of new material that was never to be and how great it would have been. There are some great vocal covers of this song out too. Great work my friend!
If "About A Girl" was Kurt's version of a Beatles styled song, "Do Re Mi" sounds like his version of a Roy Orbison styled song. The melody and even the voice sound similar to Roy.
Hey Tom, HUGE fan. I have a 12 String H912 Stella on its way!! Would you mind clarifying the strings you have? Specifically what tension they are, and exactly what 5 strings you have on there? Did you (and Kurt?) take the normal 6 string approach and drop the bottom E?
Hey. I am your subscriber from Russia. I really like your covers, you skillfully own a guitar, and it's nice to see that you what you do. When you wath your video, your mood immediately rises. Thanks for trying for us. Nirvana will always live, and you help to refresh the memories of this wonderfol group. Thank you♥
Hey man!! Do you think you could cover Burn my Britches?? :D lmao I basically learn how to play a ton of nirvana songs from just watching you 😅 thank you
I think the lyrics in the description are off. At least I've always heard it as "Do re mi" then "Don't rape me" and "Follow pain and breed me" not "follow pain and be me" as it's written in the description, to name a couple.
Nice. I just bought a 68 Stella 12 string just like this one. In near mint condition! Gonna have my guitar guy set it up with 12’s for now but I’ll replace with nylons later. These vintage guitars were always recommended to be tuned down 1/2 step. Is that how Kurt had his with the nylon strings as well?
Dude, did you really buy a 12 string stella acoustic guitar, with only 5 strings? For this song? You know what I mean... 5 strings... That's pretty deep. \m/
Hey I’m a big fan of nirvana and your videos, and I can play most all the nirvana songs on guitar (bass, drums) i would like to know if you get money on RUclips or get copyright claimed. Thanks
Most Underrated song nirvana song
Not most but very very underated
its kurts song not a nirvana song
I wouldn't call it a Nirvana song
This songs seems to be a goodbye than a song
I know
My God this song makes me cry😭. This is the last Kurt's song! The story of this song is one of the best Kurt's tales
Tomm man!!!!! Looking forward to watch "gallons"........ Anyway thanks for these amazing songs!
The apex of Kurt's composion brillance
hey tom! great cover! i have a question. do you think one day you could do some kind of gear rundown? maybe show of some of ur amp settings? stay safe!!
Yes, I will. Some have been waiting 8-9 years for that, haha
@@Tomnedreb alright!
Can you do horrified demo????
yes!
GS Tomnedreb
Man this shows that another nirvana album would’ve been so good
Kurt Cobain acoustic solo album...
yea but nowadays the hype would not probably be the same as then, same happened to green day
@@Tomnedreb yes it was
@@Tomnedrebprobably makes me feel that I can do the same
One of my favourites... It would have been a great opening for next album... Only by his guitar playing you can hear how he wanted to match drums etc., sick (in a good way).
Hi
Kompletnie się nie spodziewałem, że napotkam tutaj jakiegoś youtubera, (tymbardziej ciebie) lubiącego słuchać starych nagrań cobaina.

Lyrics: And if I may
And if I might
Lay me down weeping
And if I say, what is life?
I might be dreaming
If I may, what is right?
Summertime, see me yield
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Those years in his body
A phrase from his pocket
In chains from the no-end, lifelong dream
[Chorus]
Re mi
Re mi
Well, do re mi
Do re mi
[Verse 2]
If I may
And if I might
Wake me up and see me
If I do, and if I lie
Find me out, to see me
And if I'm made, cold as ice
I may have to see me heal
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Raised in his own care
Erased from this moment
The change from his socket
That I may need...
[Chorus]
Re mi
Re mi
Well, do re mi
Do re mi
Do re mi
Do re mi
[Bridge]
Wish me good
And wish me life
Find me out, to see me
In your way
Just be quiet
Follow pain and be me
Yell or wail and if I sigh
Stake me out the TV
And if I may
And if I might
Got a gun
To bleed me..
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Crazed in this gossip
Erased from his woman
And chains from his knowing
In my tea....
[Outro]
Re Mi
Re Mi
Re Mi
Do Re Mi
Do Re Mi
Do Re Mi
Do Re Mi
Do Re Mi...
my second first nirvana song i learned on acoustic guitar
Way many mistakes on those lyrics, but ok
Daniela Victoria it isnt sure which lyrics are correct lol
Dont rape me...
@@daniellevitoriaa840There is not official lyrics

The guitar is happy but his vocals are kinda giving sad
bro is too bizzarre read this deep comment with a roblox pp
dont let them know your next move cuzzo@@tmarenco4241
I even find it "angry" or frustrated feelings in some parts
This song is so sad and beautiful at the same time
Despite most nirvanas and cobains songs having relatively simple structure they we're able to elicit such profound emotions, which proves that a song doesn't have to be complex.
Good songs usually aren't complex, tbh.
Я как самоучка смотрю сейчас это видео и вообще не понимаю как мне это сыграть...

Try this band mock up. Sure sounds great
@@chadintal5352 ah yeah I'm familiar with that one, it's really well done. Downloaded it a while ago :)
This Stella upgraded video makes more sense, The Stella makes the sound perfect for Nirvana songs
Thanks Tom!
(Ohh thanks for putting the tuna app tuning , you could put it on all videos, thanks again)
You even did that 0:34 part like the original song! Love it
Bener lu bro!
@@Sliver90jirrttt ktmu org indo cuy
This is the most depressing song I've ever heard, I always avoid listening to it. I didn't know it was Kurt's last known composition.
well, good thing there are plenty of "happy" songs for you out there
you made my day mann
Thanks man!
@@Tomnedreb btw thx for putting GuitarTuna app information man it really helped me u can put that info to your all videos too man that would be great thanks anyway stay safe man we love you
Hey! you're finally back! I really missed your covers. Stay safe!
Thank you! You too!
Nirvana's next album was supposed to be more acoustic from what I've heard. This would've been one hell of a song to be on the album if it was added.
Imagine an electric version of this!
Holy shit yes, they should've did this at Paramount 1991 and Reading 1992!
@@rickynickybillywilly3687 the song didn't exist then as it was written around early 1994 but definitely would have been amazing haha
It's not kurt voice, but you may enjoy it anyways ruclips.net/video/rBGZFUL-T7A/видео.html&ab_channel=retrobiff7
this song is honestly so underrated and it’s amazing but makes me sad :(
This song is so awesome. You covered it so well!
Best song of Kurt Cobain.
Great Cover , greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷🇧🇷
love it! will you ever do a gear tour and how you get your sound video?
Yes, soon
Самая грустная его песня
Sappy sad version is quite sad too..
Да ну нафиг! Привет!
самая грустная Pennyroyal tea 1990
соглашусь, что самая грустная
Hey Tom, it would be cool if "someday" you can make a video of playing - 1992 Reading - Lithium with the Eb Standard Tuning
awesome cover though :)
that is song that always keep in my repertoire of nirvana acoustics songs, but my acoustic guitar is broke :(
P.d
the acoustic guitar was a spanish guitar
Sorry about your guitar..
Very sad song🥺
Nice

Can you play Mexican seafood on the guitar please ?
Here you go ruclips.net/video/bbWVm9Fo-AA/видео.html
@@Tomnedreb thanck you
@@Tomnedreb van you play in bloom (smart session ) on the guitar ?
It is a sad sort of song
If "About A Girl" was Kurt's version of a Beatles styled song, "Do Re Mi" sounds like his version of a Roy Orbison styled song. The melody and even the voice sound similar to Roy.
Amazing work thank you
Incredible work, and an incredible Nirvana song
I hope the version with Pat and Eric surfaces someday. You did it great!
Man, how many T Shots Nirvana you have ?
Not sure, maybe 20..
Hey Tom, HUGE fan. I have a 12 String H912 Stella on its way!! Would you mind clarifying the strings you have? Specifically what tension they are, and exactly what 5 strings you have on there? Did you (and Kurt?) take the normal 6 string approach and drop the bottom E?
Hey! Just normal nylons nothing special. The normal 6 string approach and no idea about the string tension.
Tomnedreb Stella came and is in amazing condition. Threw 5 nylons on. I just need a new bridge saddle. Thank your for the inspiration!!
Brilliant cover mate 👍
do re mi was about him killing himself. if you know what the lyrics are about
Yeah its eerie as fuck "got a gun to bleed me"
@@jonathanboland7962 it makes me depressed too listening to the lyrics i just cry alot and lay in bed with this on

It's a painful and a beautiful song at my point of view.
A great cover as always
Greatings from chile :')
No one is going to say something about he has 5 strings on a 12 strings guitar?
Hey man!! Do you think you could cover Burn my Britches?? :D lmao I basically learn how to play a ton of nirvana songs from just watching you 😅 thank you
Yes, I will do that one
I think the lyrics in the description are off. At least I've always heard it as "Do re mi" then "Don't rape me" and "Follow pain and breed me" not "follow pain and be me" as it's written in the description, to name a couple.
Why didn’t you use the epiphone for this cover ?
Because Kurt plays it on the Stella..
Man I love all your covers! They're all like homages to one of the greatest bands in rock history! 🤟
you look a bit like young dave grohl, also great voice!
The thing is Kurt planned so much in the future like to go to lalapalooza and make an acoustic guitar album
The new upload sounds better than the old upload, keep rockin and stay safe.
Could please cover Lithium from the Smart Studio sessions?
perfect...
Nice cover
Ayyy you even got the classic restringed 12 string Stella acoustic
Another great cover! I also appreciate you putting the GuitarTuna tuning in the description:)
Can you play blew on the guitar ?

These vintage guitars were always recommended to be tuned down 1/2 step. Is that how Kurt had his with the nylon strings as well?
That's cool, love that guitar! Most of the time he had it tuned down, but on songs like Polly, he used standard tuning.
Awesome sounds good
Can you play blew on the guitar ??
My favourite nirvana song!
Now on Stella nice ;) i love that guitar
I was looking forward to this cover
Can you please make a cover on "miss me"?=)
Maybe the descending bit would've been done on the cello if they ever did it in the studio idk
That would have been good for sure.
Dude, did you really buy a 12 string stella acoustic guitar, with only 5 strings? For this song? You know what I mean...
5 strings...
That's pretty deep. \m/
Hey I’m a big fan of nirvana and your videos, and I can play most all the nirvana songs on guitar (bass, drums) i would like to know if you get money on RUclips or get copyright claimed. Thanks
Hello can i get please tuning? :( best cover :) but please tuning on the guitar
