This was probably my introduction to rock I think I listened to nirvana before I ever heard Metallica my dad had lots of rock cds and this was the first thing I remember hearing shortly after hearing nirvana I put in hybrid theory I listen to rap mostly now but I love all music
I remember when this first aired back in 1993. This performance no one knew it but they were witnessing history. This song in particular really humanized Kurt while at the same time solidified his legend. I still get chills every time I see this.
It's an old folk song named in the pines. It's about a runaway slave girl who murders her master. The cold wind blows and the shiver the whole night through is death taking him away. It's demented and awesome
well the old song has many interpretations...one is that the song is the pov of a serial pedo killer who is obv looking for his 'girl' who has escaped him..but yea its a demented song!😏
THIS is what MTV used to be , you’d see unplugged concerts of your favorite artists and see them relaxed and chill. So sad this was his last performance. Rip brother.
Nirvana was legendary. Leadbelly was far beyond his time. Two amazing people 80 years apart, found each others beauty. Edit: Cool side note, Kurt played his guitar upside down this entire performance, since he was left handed playing a right handed guitar.
You know whats funny. He was actually right handed but plays guitar left handed. So thought to myself how funny it is he is right handed playing right handed guitar left handed 😂 Pretty sure played the drums right handed though.
Yeah, I knew this one was gonna be good before it even started.😉 Waiting on that switch up. I liked Nirvana back in the day before this Unplugged aired, but I kind of thought of them as just a thrasher, grunge band. A lot of people felt that way and when this aired, we all just sat there with our mouths hanging open. I think this gave a lot of people a new respect and appreciation for Nirvana. They blew everyone's mind with this session. This was December of 93, I believe. By April of the following year he was dead. A lot of people say the set of this show was designed to resemble a wake. The whole show had a very somber feel to it, so it's all very strange in retrospect.
@@dipsydoodle7988 🤔😆 Touche...However, all I meant was that there was never a genre called that, even tho it's not a bad description of it, I guess...😏
He joked about buying a Ledbelly guitar for $500,000. The Guitar Kurt was playing right there sold for millions a few years ago! Nirvana was one of the bands to start the 90’s grunge/alternative era of music. Kurt Cobain was a tortured soul and, unfortunately, committed suicide with a gun at the age of 27. The world was shocked! RIP Kurt! Such a gentle soul.
For quite some time after his death it was really hard for me to listen to this....myself along with millions of other people my age (I was born in 71) were deeply affected by this mans music & when he died it hurt
Best MTV; unplugged concert PERIOD!! Nirvana didn’t do what everyone else did they didn’t just do their greatest hits acoustically; they used the opportunity to showcase some of their favorite artists and blew everyone away in doing so; kudos to them for once again not following the formula
This performance was 5 months before Kurt took his own life. I was 13 when he died and I always felt (still to this day) that this whole performance was like a "funeral" for himself. It felt odd, eerie, and very melancholy. Still, one of my favorite albums/"concerts" of ALL TIME!!
I really hope, even on your own, that both of you watch/listen to that nirvana unplugged show. Although it’ll be even better after you’ve listened to more of their songs. Also want to say…the vibe from it is like this…..imagine a rocker, a rapper, a country singer all walked in separately to the show and all left together as buds.
Now, u have to do Alice in Chains- Nutshell (MTV Unplugged)...Kurt decorated this stage as he would his own funeral....Then, Layne wanted to go with the same concept... Therfore, that is why people say this is closest thing to watching a man sing at his own funeral. RIP KURT 🙏🖤RIP LAYNE🎶🕊
If you enjoy Nirvana live, you should check out Nirvana-Drain You live from France. One of the few times you see Kurt without a guitar at the end when the sound goes out on his guitar after breaking a string
This MTV Unplugged recording was made on November 18, 1993 and released in October 1994. He shot himself on April 5, 1994, but was not found until April 8. Before that (on April 1, 1994), he had run away from a final drug rehab that he didn't make it through.
Being a teenager in the early 90’s and Being a Huge Nirvana was an experience that was unforgettable. The rise of Nirvana putting the Grunge scene on the Map to the unfortunate Death of Kurt Cobain 😢. You have to watch the entire Nirvana Unplugged show, Kurt really to he soul into there performance. Shout out to Krist and Dave also for their awesome performance 🤘🏼
Thank you for watching till the end. Kurt never got to see what this historic performance came to be, due to his death before the release. It will remain one of the best of all time for many years. Thank you.
That first half was chill, then the switch was flipped. It was pain and anger from there. That last "shiver" he screams gives me goosebumps every time. Their Unplugged is one of the best ever!
I read an account by producers of the 'MTV Unplugged' show that Kurt Cobain refused to play 'Smells like teen spirit' in the acoustic format... Instead, he offered a bunch of obscure songs by Vaselines, Meat Puppets, David Bowie... Past 'Unplugged' shows had the artists do take after take going through their acoustic songs - the best takes were aired on TV. Nirvana refused to do that in 1993; they played their acoustic set only once after rehearsals. They closed the set w/ a cover of blues singer Leadbelly's "Where did you sleep last night" ... and the crowd cheered loudly, even tho they didn't know the song. It was that powerful... Kurt and Nirvana left the stage and the crowd kept cheering for another song. When producers asked Kurt if he could do another song as an encore, he reportedly replied, "I can't top that last song..." Sadly, Kurt Cobain took his own life in 1994, just a few months later... 😪
@@dobber43 They did play hits like 'Come as you are'... 'Pennyroyal tea'... 'All apologies'... but not 'Lithium' or 'In bloom' or 'Heart-shaped box' ...or 'Teen spirit'
Neither of you understand what video you are watching but MAD props to you both for giving it a shot and at least realizing there is beauty in what you cant see
Yes! I just commented this above before i saw your comment, responding to someone who recommended other Nirvana songs. Although lake of fire was a cover, his vocal performance was unreal on that one… ❤️
He wasn't at the women. He was yelling after her. Like "where are you. I'm worried about you... " that's something to think about about this song... when he says where did you sleep last night, he's saying girl... are you stuck in the pines, in the cold? Girl, where are you?
It's in the title about the concert. " unplugged". Literally means acoustic, no amplifiers, no loud noise. If people are doing an "unplugged " concert it is this.
This was from a 1993 MTV unplugged the special he killed himself not long after the special was filmed. I highly suggest you get the DVD and watch the entire concert!! Other songs to check out are heart shaped box, the man who stole the world, Pennyroyal tea, come as you are, all apologies, rape me… many others too!
You guys should react to some if the female led grunge bands like: The Cranberries: “zombie” and “Dreams”. Hole: “ miss world”, “ Violet” and “ doll parts” Varuca Salt: “ seether” and “ volcano girls” Garbage: “ Stupid Girl” and “ only happy when it rains” And Gwen Stefani’s band No Doubt -“ I’m just a girl”
It's funny when super young people comment on these Unplugged videos and are like "I'm shocked this is chill." The entire Unplugged concept was taking loud, electric-based bands and stripping down their songs. Many times these bands did a couple cover songs for the show... this is one of them. This song is about 80 years-old I think
Several of the songs in this performance were chill. They did covers of some of their favorite, lesser known bands giving them attention they might not have gotten without Nirvana.
it's actually an old folk song popularized by Leadbelly a pioneer of Blues but the lyrics have changed over the years and different recordings. It's most likely a song about a slave owner talking to a woman that he enslaves. It is also know as "Black Girl" One thing is for sure the song is not about a woman cheating. It's about pain but ultimately it's down to your own personal interpretation.
I remember when they did this and watching it live on MTV. It was so unique to see Nirvana and Kurt Cobain in an acoustic setting. He killed this performance. You guys should check out the back story to this performance and see how bad Kurt Cobain was feeling because of his drug use just prior to them going on stage, and then he pulls out a performance and show like this. Crazy… Another dope reaction, keep it up. ✌🏻👍🏻
From the looks of it, we all knew he sang his heart out cuz at the point he was drowning in sadness, especially the last part when he opened his eyes for a sec.
This is 1994. The unplugged MTV series. You should react to the entire Live it was lit from start to finish. This is an improv for this unplugged. It's not in their albums. Cobain was chill he didn't give a damn about popularity. He was like eminem in his debuts, unapologetic about what how he sung. He was a metal head at the start then transited to grunge. He was about 27-28 he died right after this Live.
The last verse brings me to the verge or full on tears. Both from the context of the song and the reactions of people opening to something outside their norm
This is my favourite Nirvana performance EVER! I was so pleased when 'Nirvana Unplugged' was released as an album. This is IMO the best song on there, even though it was a cover - Kurt's voice & charisma took it to a whole new level. The way he gasped & looked up in the last line - *haunting* - brings me to tears every time. Kurt was a gentle but troubled soul who hated fame; I was deeply affected by his tragic death, but what a wonderful legacy he left us....I wish he'd got to see his daughter grow up. *R.I.P. Kurt Cobain* 💔 PS the song is over 100 years old - recorded under different titles including 'In The Pines' and 'Black Girl' - Leadbelly recorded it in the 1940's. I think it will always be Kurt's song now due to this performance🖤
I've said this for reaction other videos: Young people need to learn the phrase "quiet intensity". This is not a "chill" song just because it's not fast or (mostly) loud.
You guys would like the entire show. As everyone has said, it was MTV Unplugged. The entire show is great, I wasn't a big Nirvana fan until I heard that show.
Kirk Cobain was a massive fan of Lead Belly and I think he thought he was one of the best guitarist in the world it’s nice that people of his generation was still respecting the old blues guitarists and given they credit they deserve.

The Unplugged performance was a beautiful gift that Kurt gave us to remember him by right before he left us.
This right here is exactly how I feel 🥺
True
Will defo live with me till I die ☺️
At 7:23 we can see the life left, and how it felt for the last second before the shotgun went off.
This was one of the most epic accoustic sets of the 90's I feel.
Yeah I was gonna say it was an acoustic concert or sumn
I was a big metal head but used to go forong walks with that set playing in my Walkman 😆 🤣
Up there with the pearl jam unplugged set xx
This was probably my introduction to rock I think I listened to nirvana before I ever heard Metallica my dad had lots of rock cds and this was the first thing I remember hearing shortly after hearing nirvana I put in hybrid theory I listen to rap mostly now but I love all music
It was THE best 1
I remember when this first aired back in 1993. This performance no one knew it but they were witnessing history. This song in particular really humanized Kurt while at the same time solidified his legend. I still get chills every time I see this.
I loved watching MTV live. Saw so many great performances. Saw this one.
It is weird. Older it gets the more impact is has on everyone
"That beat is creepy" I´d put it differently- This melody is hypnotic.
i think creepy works… especially with the lyrical content
You could even call it haunting
@@shady-mx9qg definitely does. Was a uniquely accurate way to put it
It's an old folk song named in the pines. It's about a runaway slave girl who murders her master. The cold wind blows and the shiver the whole night through is death taking him away.
It's demented and awesome
well the old song has many interpretations...one is that the song is the pov of a serial pedo killer who is obv looking for his 'girl' who has escaped him..but yea its a demented song!😏
Also known as "Black girl" instead of "my girl"
Five months later he was gone. That sigh, that look, haunts me now. A very clear moment of fatigue and heartbreak.
THIS is what MTV used to be , you’d see unplugged concerts of your favorite artists and see them relaxed and chill. So sad this was his last performance. Rip brother.
This was not his last performance.
Definitely not his last performance but legendary no doubt
it wasnt lol
This is an old folk blues song, it was originally recorded by Leadbelly, whom he referred to in the video
Nirvana was legendary. Leadbelly was far beyond his time. Two amazing people 80 years apart, found each others beauty.
Edit:
Cool side note, Kurt played his guitar upside down this entire performance, since he was left handed playing a right handed guitar.
You know whats funny. He was actually right handed but plays guitar left handed. So thought to myself how funny it is he is right handed playing right handed guitar left handed 😂 Pretty sure played the drums right handed though.
Its hard to overstate how important this band was to my generation
Yeah, I knew this one was gonna be good before it even started.😉 Waiting on that switch up. I liked Nirvana back in the day before this Unplugged aired, but I kind of thought of them as just a thrasher, grunge band.

@@OfficialLifeWithRecklezz 😊
There's no such thing as a "thrasher Grunge band". What they did was a new version of Punk.
@@jessithanks8082 annnd that new version of punk could easily be described as thrasher grunge. 😄

If you intersted in more Nirvana I recommend:
'Come As You Are'
'In Bloom'
'Heart Shaped Box'
And. 'Lithium'
cant forget drain you
Cannot forget the outstanding performance vocally he did during this set while covering “Lake of Fire” ❤️❤️
Best MTV; unplugged concert PERIOD!! Nirvana didn’t do what everyone else did they didn’t just do their greatest hits acoustically; they used the opportunity to showcase some of their favorite artists and blew everyone away in doing so; kudos to them for once again not following the formula
Alice In Chains Pearl Jam>>>>
@@chadphelps5809 disagree
Nirvana > aic >>>>>>>pearl jam
One of the most legendary performances in rock history. He was a quiet humble chill dude and you see it here.
Unfortunately he wasn't so much "chill" as he was "depressed", but I know what you mean. Didn't like to make a big deal out of himself.
It was MTV Unplugged so the whole concert is like this (acoustic)
This was their last televised performance in November of 1993. This was the last song, and when his voice cracks at the end, it gets me every time.
They had another televised performance in Dec 93- Mtv Live and loud, which first aired new years eve. ..but I feel you🖤
7:24 always freaks me out, it's like you can see Kurt's lifeforce leaving his body at that very moment, gives me the chills every time
like that one moment when he takes a breath just acts a window to seeing his pain through his eyes. it just sends chills down my spine
It was because of Nirvana I learned to play the guitar. They honestly have an amazing catalogue of fantastic tunes.
Another Great Reaction guys 🙏
This performance was 5 months before Kurt took his own life. I was 13 when he died and I always felt (still to this day) that this whole performance was like a "funeral" for himself. It felt odd, eerie, and very melancholy. Still, one of my favorite albums/"concerts" of ALL TIME!!
I was the same age then. It was like we almost knew we could lose him any minute, but when it actually happened it was so shocking for some reason.
I really hope, even on your own, that both of you watch/listen to that nirvana unplugged show. Although it’ll be even better after you’ve listened to more of their songs. Also want to say…the vibe from it is like this…..imagine a rocker, a rapper, a country singer all walked in separately to the show and all left together as buds.
MTV Unplugged shows were the best check them out. Kurt can be chill or bring the screams and go nuts on stage! RIP
Facts!!!! I used to love when MTV played the entire unplugged concert!!
Now, u have to do Alice in Chains- Nutshell (MTV Unplugged)...Kurt decorated this stage as he would his own funeral....Then, Layne wanted to go with the same concept...
Therfore, that is why people say this is closest thing to watching a man sing at his own funeral.
RIP KURT 🙏🖤RIP LAYNE🎶🕊
Yes I agree

Back when MTV was great! Unplugged shows were so good, this one was all time though.
Where did you sleep last night is definitely my all time favorite Nirvana song 💙
At the end of the song when he he pauses and looks up and we see his piercing blue eyes…. We look into his soul…goosebumps
The irony: he's talking about Lead Belly's guitar being offered for $500,000. The guitar Kurt played here sold at auction for over $6,000,000.
Nirvana, Pearl jam, and Alice in chains had fire unplugged concerts
The drummer, Dave Grohl, is the lead sing for the Foo Fighters now.
he took his own life just a few months later when he was 27 in 1994
Nirvana changed the world. U should listen to come as you are, heart shaped box, lithium, in bloom.. there is so many good musics. RIP Kurt Cobain
This MTV Unplugged recording was made on November 18, 1993 and released in October 1994. He shot himself on April 5, 1994, but was not found until April 8. Before that (on April 1, 1994), he had run away from a final drug rehab that he didn't make it through.
U just witnessed art. The best musical expression
Being a teenager in the early 90’s and Being a Huge Nirvana was an experience that was unforgettable. The rise of Nirvana putting the Grunge scene on the Map to the unfortunate Death of Kurt Cobain 😢. You have to watch the entire Nirvana Unplugged show, Kurt really to he soul into there performance. Shout out to Krist and Dave also for their awesome performance 🤘🏼
the most honest interpretation of Leadbelly's country/blues classic I've ever heard.......
I really, really, reaaaaaaaally get goosebumps everytime i listen to this song. No matter I've listened to it like 29569836793769858 times
Hard to screech like that and remain on key with a bit of tone. Both Kurt and Axl from GnR were really, really good at it back in the day
Alice in chains, live at the moore, the song love hate love is a good one to check out💯🔥🔥
OMG YES!!!
Can you believe that this song is 150 years old? That's true.
Thank you for watching till the end. Kurt never got to see what this historic performance came to be, due to his death before the release. It will remain one of the best of all time for many years. Thank you.
Out of all the unplugged sets that came out back then, Nirvana's was the BEST.

Unplugged = “Chill” acoustic jam session
One of the few CDs I could enjoy every song :) Check out Lake of Fire or any other acoustic performance ❤️
Yes! I just commented this above before i saw your comment, responding to someone who recommended other Nirvana songs. Although lake of fire was a cover, his vocal performance was unreal on that one… ❤️
Been listening to this one since the 90s and I never fail to get goosebumps.
You have to watch his cover of The Man Who Sold The World from this same MTV Unplugged Concert!! Great reaction y'all🙏
I really like y’all because you genuinely seem interested. Other reaction channels don’t show that

Hole: “ miss world”, “ Violet” and “ doll parts”
Varuca Salt: “ seether” and “ volcano girls”
Garbage: “ Stupid Girl” and “ only happy when it rains”
And Gwen Stefani’s band No Doubt -“ I’m just a girl”
Zombie goes so hard!
Chills for days! Pure and Raw emotion.
Minute 7:24 of your vídeo , It always gives me goosebumps when Kurt takes a deep breath and opens her eyes at that last part of the song.🥶🤯
They say perfect pitch!
What a amazing voice ...such a tragedy how it ended for him .. rip kurt cobain
It all a matter of perspective. We are all dying and he left more of an impact on the world than most people. Hardly tragic.
If that sigh and stare at the end doesn't get you, you have no heart.
Pain. That's what makes that sound.
It is chill because this was MTV Unplugged.
Welcome to the unplugged universe. Its all really good. Check out all of them please!
When he pretends to slam the guitar at the end. Lol. Kurt is a legend.
His voice is raspy... love it.
Also he was on heroin, you can see the pin point pupils when he screams..
They actually couldn't find him any, so he had to settle for Valium. That was the only way to get him to perform
Well blame that BITCH!!!
Heart shaped box and rape me are my 2 favorite nirvana songs!!
It's funny when super young people comment on these Unplugged videos and are like "I'm shocked this is chill."

you should watch “school” by nirvana live and loud 1993
nirvana heart shaped box 🙏
They missed the storm of the story where dude told his ol’ lady the body wont be found……
that part at 7:24 gives me goosebumps every time
I was in that audience at this show. Great performances
One of my favorite cover songs Kurt ever did.. it was originally written an sung by the Late Great "Lead Belly"
Truly one of the greatest rock n roll performances ever
This is my favourite Nirvana performance EVER! I was so pleased when 'Nirvana Unplugged' was released as an album. This is IMO the best song on there, even though it was a cover - Kurt's voice & charisma took it to a whole new level. The way he gasped & looked up in the last line - *haunting* - brings me to tears every time.
Kurt was a gentle but troubled soul who hated fame; I was deeply affected by his tragic death, but what a wonderful legacy he left us....I wish he'd got to see his daughter grow up.
*R.I.P. Kurt Cobain* 💔
PS the song is over 100 years old - recorded under different titles including 'In The Pines' and 'Black Girl' - Leadbelly recorded it in the 1940's. I think it will always be Kurt's song now due to this performance🖤
This whole MTV unpluged album is Fire!!!
"All Apologies" " Lake of Fire " " Come as You Are" " Plateau "
I've said this for reaction other videos: Young people need to learn the phrase "quiet intensity". This is not a "chill" song just because it's not fast or (mostly) loud.
1:22 he had just shot up moments before taking the stage lolololol
you guys should react to nirvana all apologies unplugged
He gives respect to Ledbelly, check out who who Ledbelly was, you'll be surprised
Could you please react to Nirvana's Lithium at Live and loud
This really was a perfect concert.
It's an old folk song. I've heard my family sing it long before Kurt did it. He did it great though.
You guys would like the entire show. As everyone has said, it was MTV Unplugged. The entire show is great, I wasn't a big Nirvana fan until I heard that show.
Kirk Cobain was a massive fan of Lead Belly and I think he thought he was one of the best guitarist in the world it’s nice that people of his generation was still respecting the old blues guitarists and given they credit they deserve.
Gone to soon Kurt was a genius
