As a drummer I can say that keeping pace and pattern is relitevely easy, but when you start having to actually think about lyrics the struggle becomes real, at least for me
@@SuicideSeason4545 as a shit alone time singer (because im monotone), i can say that remembering lyrics is super easy with the background music. I dont even think about the lyrics, they just come out of my mouth And thats with my probably 200 out of 260 songs in my everything playlist. I do mess up sometimes but its fine. Weird thing is though, i cant remember the lyrics or at least not perfectly without the song playing.
It’s not easy but like everything it just takes practice. Not saying I’m a genius but as a singing drummer the drumming part is easy because drum set up and muscle memory allows you to strike a cymbal or tom with your eyes closed or completely looking the other way. The tricky bit is keeping time while singing lyric timing that is different to the beat. Once you get the hang of that it really becomes second nature.
i’m a drummer and u can easily remember where the toms and cymbals and stuff are without looking at them with muscle memory, but singing (even though i’ve never tried it) seems hard
I feel that Kurt Cobain understood the perspective of this girl (and of so many other girls like this one) in a depth that not many men seem to do. And what a solid performance too! Dave Grohl's background vocals take the sound to another level.
where will you be kurt? will you be watching guys from 17, 18, 19, 20 years old listen to your music after 25 years you left? how many questions damn genius. Will you be watching me while I write this? I do not know. I just hope that the day I have to leave this world. You're up there with a smile and I can thank you for all this you left me. I love you man
This song is beautifuly haunting, touching a very sensitive topic of dissapointing your parents, even with such a simple thing as a gender, with a weirdly upbeat melody. It's almost as if he's brushing it off with how happy the song sounds. Kurt was amazing at painting pictures with lyrics and i think this song is a prime example.
Kurt was very sympathetic to females, and hated sexism. I could totally see him feeling for women born to ignorant parents. There are entire cultures where everyone hopes for sons, and the females are hardly valued, if at all.
This was the B-side of the Lithium cassette single. I was in 7th grade and it was the first non-Nevermind and live Nirvana song that I had ever heard. I saw them play in Seattle two months later (my first concert). I had an awesome childhood!
[Verse 1] She should have stayed away from friends She should have had more time to spend She should have died when she was born She should have worn the crown of thorns She should have... [Chorus] Been a son, she should have... Been a son, she should have... Been a son, she should have... Been a son [Verse 2] She should have made her mother proud She should have stood out in the crowd She should have fallen on her stance She should have had another chance She should have.. [Chorus] Been a son, she should have... Been a son, she should have... Been a son, she should have... Been a son
this is honestly the best live nirvana performance i've ever heard! sounds just like the studio version. nirvana was pretty sloppy live so this is actually really impressive and cool as hell to see
Nirvana was not sloppy live. They're one of the best live bands in history and tight af. Reading, paramount, live and loud, unplugged. Tell me any of that is sloppy. It's actually unreal how good live they were.
Always killed it when Dave sang the backing vocal harmonies to Kurt’s voice. Crazy how good they sounded together given how crazy Kurt sounded. Not to mention Dave was drumming lol
I remember the first time I heard this song in my single CD, Lithium, great moments to be a teenager! I love Nirvana such one of the greatest bands of the world! (,,,/

Música sensacional. NIRVANA e suas músicas maravilhosas ... Amo essa música ... desde a época do lançamento. "Ben a son"é espetacular. Rio de Janeiro-🇧🇷
Yeah, they are still better than these new bands coming out. Nobody has that rawness anymore. Everything is electronic and trying to be 5 things at once. This is good ol headbangin at it’s finest!!
we need some more authentic male feminists like kurt cobain who are able to capture the masses attention like this. nirvana was awesome for genuinely wanting to use their platform the best they could to advocate for what kurt and them cared about
Dude, I’m 13. Every album is AMAZING, but never mind is for sure their best album, it revolutionized grunge and every song from that album is simply incredible
GUYS We've all gone back in time to the 90s together and we haven't realized it!!! It's the only way that this could be happening! It would have happened once we woke up in the morning. Maybe once we wake up tomorrow morning we would be back in 2019
Dave's background vocals are everything in this song.
Agreed his background harmony vocals and his drumming are a crucial part of what nirvana were all about - a power trio
Nirvana is everything in this song
Dan cobian
No, Kurt is everything in this song
Even the thumbnail
25 years later and it still feels like he's around
no it don`t... Music is shit today and he contributed to that by quitting.
😞
" he" is. The joke is on us
If he was around he would shit all over music now
Sebastián Joel Calderón Melo It’s a band not a person
I like that krist jumps around at random times lmao
Nice profile picture where can I get one
@@shannonregner4603idk
Can we all just appreciate for a moment that Dave is helping sing while keeping his drum patterns and not even looking at the drums

This song gives off the same vibes as on a plain. I can’t describe it exactly but i just know it does
same key and the tempo is almost the same albeit a bit faster
To me it sounds like heavier version of the beatles song
I just played on a plain and the opening is the same
@@saintmatthew9100 What Beatles song?
@@suchabadkitty1293 i think they mean on a plain, it was apparently inspired by the beatles
Best band! Respect to Krist and Dave and Pat! RIP Kurt
Travis V not even top 20
@@LeftHookLegend lol i bet it is way above
Andy Lol Top 20 is being generous
Grand Theft Rondo No way. They’re top 10 being objective.
Grand Theft Rondo shut up
Live at paramount was actually The best Nirvana Concert ever
As a trio yes, but with Pat, my favorite is Live and Loud.
A Great one for sure.
And what about Live And Loud?
Love Dave Grohl singing this with Kurt
Fantastic, Beatlesque harmony!
it adds the needed background voice

Krist was underrated
No way.
It takes talent to have a strap that low
Not just him , all the fucking bass players in the world
@@bluebery4603 you're right
Bass players are soooooo underrated, unless if your the one singing.
I really love the versions where Dave sings the backing vocals

You are fucking lucky with your childhood, since you caught such cool people live >
Wasnt been a son from the "blew" ep?
This is THE BEST VERSION of Been a Son I’ve ever heard. The harmonies are so good!
Gotta be the most powerful sounding 3 piece ever
[Verse 1]
She should have stayed away from friends
She should have had more time to spend
She should have died when she was born
She should have worn the crown of thorns
She should have...
[Chorus]
Been a son, she should have...
Been a son, she should have...
Been a son, she should have...
Been a son
[Verse 2]
She should have made her mother proud
She should have stood out in the crowd
She should have fallen on her stance
She should have had another chance
She should have..
[Chorus]
Been a son, she should have...
Been a son, she should have...
Been a son, she should have...
Been a son
What a strong lyrics.. I just heard early demo of the song when Kurt hadn't put that lyrics down. I couldn't imagine how he could ever write that.
Copy and paste
Wrong, in the second verse the lyrics need to be switched
As a woman, this song, every line resonates with me… Even my mother told me I should have been born a boy. 😵💫😵💫
That bass tone krist has in this performance is so nice, I absolutely love it
1:06 dave grohl is a BEAST
Please start uploading unseen good quality footage PLEASE! Cant get enough of Nirvana!
童謡みたいにキャッチャーかと思うとちょっと捻くれたメロディラインにパンキッシュなサウンド。久々に聴いたけどやっぱりNIRVANAは最高！！
Glad to see Nirvana is back together after all these years! Kurt hasn't aged a bit!

Shut up
oh hey dave
I LOVE DAVE GROHL
Wow yall are idiots he’s a fan account
Krist's performance was amazing. 100/10
Best Bass
0:30 Dave thinking “yup one day imma break my leg playing a concert and just come back and play Queen”
Favorite concert!
To have been able to see Nirvana live😬
One of My fav Nirvana songs since 1992
Confession: I have listened to Nirvana every day since discovering their music in 2020.
We still love him but who is uploading this videos? May be the managers of nirvana
yes, because kurt was the only one member of nirvana.
Did you really think this whole time that music videos were uploaded by the actual band members?
BigSpongebob the band pays them they don’t get a cut the band can fire them anytime they want
@BigSpongebob Dave and Courtney probably
Michael Jackson
*In a thousand years i’d never think i’d get notification from nirvana, wow*
Man, where is the time traveling machine
i am thinking same
You and me both ;)
the quality is astounding
Que p... de energia... Crus e em grande forma... Concerto é lendário!
He was a feminist. This comes from such a place of empathy and an understanding of patriarchy. Kurt I see you, homie. Thank you.
this is honestly the best live nirvana performance i've ever heard! sounds just like the studio version. nirvana was pretty sloppy live so this is actually really impressive and cool as hell to see
They were tight in 91 but did get sloppier as Kurt’s drug use got worse. This is probably right before their peak as a live act.
