Walk by Foo Fighters
And Come As You Are by Nirvana
and also Figure It Out by Royal Blood ⚡️
*one of the most famous songs of all time starts playing*
“Why does this sound so familiar? Was this on a commercial or something?” 😂
At some point they have to stop reacting to music from before they were born.
@@chookhamable ??
Why is that? It's how you learn of artists you may have heard of but never gave them the time to listen. If that were indeed the case folks wouldn't listen to Marvin Gaye, The Beatles etc. So your choice is you'd rather let the music die than him to react to it because you think its before his time?
@@blackkingrottweilers8535 because when it's iconic, they have always heard it before. I have no issue with them listening to it, but calling it a reaction is a farce.
@@chookhamable Nah, this is very organic.
"I wonder what else these guys are putting out."
...who's gonna break it to him?
He probably doesn’t know about the Shotgun incident huh
KhasAdun someone’s needs to tell him
There's two things he has to learn. 1st. he has to learn Kurt Cobain committed suicide. 2nd, he has to learn Courtney Love killed Kurt Cobain and tried to make it look like a suicide.
@@rynecology facts
Its called foo fighters 👌
Rock is so underrated in today’s world
Not really, I believe its in the top 3 or 5 most listened to genres in the world. And I believe metal is also in the top 10. But I do think more people should listen to rock, cause I love it
Not underrated at all actually, it's a pretty high up there genre
Fax
@@deathring7339 but It isn't mainstream anymore
I know right
This is not just a song. This is an anthem of a generation, a piece of history, and in my and many others' opinion a part of world cultural heritage.
Bro shut up u taking to serious damn
Huh
But it makes no sense
Ok
ok chill out emre
That video came out in 1991 and literally changed music history
So tru. Just 4 chord change music. WOW
Deff changed rock music at the time
1991. How fresh does this still sound? Nothing sounded like them then...and nothing does now.
Sad how songs like this don’t get big anymore
@@KylieIsOverIt sorta, it's not super true to say "nothing sounded like them" but they pioneered a new genre of music, and there were bands that at least musically sounded similar. There were a lot of common inspiration in the seattle grunge music scene, Soundgarden (RIP Chris Cornell) Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Stone Temple Pilots were all from seattle and inspired by the same trailblazing that Nirvana had been inspired by.
Nirvana has been the inspiration of hundreds of bands, and is responsible for the megalithic alternative rock scene we have now that evolved out of the seattle grunge sound.
“Why this shit sound so familiar”
Probably because it’s one of the most influential rock songs of all time 😂
Chill dude
Chill u nitty 😂
@@TheTeleporter101 ahahah nah
I think i saw somwhere its the 6th Popular Song of all time and all music Genres
@@lukmuller5082 only 6th lol surely higher
This song essentially opened the floodgates for alternative rock and metal to get into the mainstream. Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Stone Temple Pilots, Foo Fighters, and even nu/alt metal bands like Korn, Slipknot, Deftones, System of a Down etc may never have gotten so big without Nirvana blowing up so much.
well foo fighters is kinda nirvanas child lmao
Don't forget the cranberries
Don’t forget one of the most influential alt bands (in my opinion) Linkin Park
@@zilla2760 I love Linkin Park! Too bad I got into their music too late.
Rest In Peace Chester, I didn't know you when you died, but I sure as hell know you now.
I know I’m late, But this also goes for PunkPop/Emo bands like Blink182, Green Day, All American Rejects, Bowling for soup, Fountains of Wayne, My Chemical Romance, All Time Low, and all those in that sub genre of rock as well.
He doesn't realize this broke and rebuilt rock as a whole. This song rocked the world when it came out
Until limp bizkit came and made it outdated 😂 think about that....nu metal knocked this music out of the mainstream...did people have brain damage in the late 90s?
@@MrShenanigans28 bro's hating 💀
@@MrShenanigans28 what?
@@NeroSparda99 Nu-metal killed grunge in the mid 90's

Next episide: first time reacting to happy birthday
Underrated 😂😂😂
Ohhh this gotta be higher
Him: «why does that sound familiar?»
what a fucking comment hahaha
"was this on a commercial? "
"I heard this before"
Wait... he doesn’t know Kurts dead....
Tbh I dont think he even knows that's kurt
Yikes
He was living under a rock
Why would he know that? He already explained he never paid attention to rock music before. Does everyone on this thread know everything about every Rap artist he's listened to? No? Then stop using this as an excuse to feel superior and STFU.
@@garyglaser4998 do you even realise how big Linkin Park were? Probably not that's why you are talking shit
Ended 80's hair band music..entered grunge!!! A completely new and exciting sound!!! Thats what i thought the first time i heard it in 1991.
new sound...
@@user-hx4ez6tu6y dude shut the fuck up I see you everywhere and you are pissing me off!!
@@user-hx4ez6tu6y literally no one cares
listen to mudhoney they came before nirvana. they even performed together. also a great band.
I second that!
I dont care what anyone says this is one of the best songs ever created
Impossible, everyone and their mother has listend to Smells Like Teen Spirit.
Lmao my thoughts exactly. So funny how many people believe some of these videos😂
He said he had heard it before. That isn’t his genre of music before so he is sitting down and actually listening to it....not just hearing it.
Yeah, but that doesn't mean he's actually paid attention to it or actually thought about it before.
@al never.
I don't give a shit who you are you can't lie and say you hadn't heard this. I'm black and I was listening to this when it actually came out.
As someone who was raised with this music I find it baffling that some people have never heard some of my fav songs, But I love to see people broaden their musical taste. I swear watching people react to older songs for the first time is my new guilty pleasure
For real dude! Imagine what it would be like to listen to this song for the first time again.
Haha yeah dude, I knew the song years before I knew about the group.
It's similar to me asking you about Chicago Drill, which has basically changed the whole rap music genre. Yet, many rappers over the years who were popular in that scene have either been murder, are now in jail, or moved away from Chicago for a better life.
Same love it and this guy is my favorite one
facts
Being a teenager when it came out..it spoke to everything I was feeling from silent rage to insecurity. Nirvana was my outlet.
Same here. I was 13.
Amen!
Nirvana will forever go down in music history. They created grunge. They were an amazing Segway between decades. This band is very important.
Dude, there are unborn fetuses who've heard this song before
I’m pretty sure you’re born knowing this song.
pretty sure my dad was playing Nirvana , Metallica and Queen in the car when sending my mom to the hospital and giving birth to me 😂.
The sperm swimmin in my balls know this song already.
My man. 🤘🏼😎
Many have heard the hook and stuff but never digested the song fully let him rock lol
“Where have i heard this before?”
Dude its as old as me almost 29 years old and it’s a classic 😂
One of 2009's hottest tracks
Tons More Cowbell it came out later than 2009 they just uploaded it in 2009
@@rvinlvd9100 Might wanna double check what you said there :')
And I'm pretty sure Tons More Cowbell was being sarcastic
commonxdreads lol and bro I’m to fucked up to know what I say all the time but he knows what. I mean
Maybe he knows "More Than A Feeling" by Boston.
This song hasn't aged a day since was released and will forever stay that way
You can’t deny this song it’s the most iconic song of all time..
The lead singer was a voice of a generation and passed a few years later, the drummer is Dave Grohl who is the Foo Fighters and a genius,
Jason Talks hell yea dude
Courtney love killed him too such a waste very talented man
Corey Johnston I was never a fan of nirvana for a long time but as I started getting more into then I realized the the world lost a very talented human to say the least
Jason Talks that drummer is the Foo Fighters? That’s amazing
@@notreallygordonramsayorami8785 yup. The birth of a REAL legend right here!
“This video was posted 2009...” because most music videos didn’t make it on CZcams until 2009. This is actually from the early 90’s...🤣 this was the soundtrack of our youth in the 90’s. Losing Kurt killed alternative and wounded the hurts of millions. RIP Kurt Cobain.
At least Dave Grohl (the drummer) moved on, taught himself to play guitar and formed the band Foo Fighters.
I would love to see LayedBak's reaction to one of their most recent singles, "Run." I just love the song and the clip is hilarious.
Ralph Stuivenwold Dave grohl already knew how to play guitar
“Losing Kurt killed alternative” okay buddy 🙄😂
Losing to Kurt to “Murder” is still difficult to handle. One of the greats was taken from us
I was gonna put this end of video lol
This song captured the very essence and feeling of a whole generation.
I was right there, 16 years of age. This shit hit like a meteor back then.
14 years for me. Was blown away
I was 17 and into all kinds of shit when this came out. Now, I’m a responsible father of three.
Mainstream music at that time was awful. The music industry ran and determined what was put out until an undeniable sound came along and it was the voice of every young person. If this song and Kurt hadn’t come along a lot of people wouldn’t still be here. His music gave us hope and something worth living for. I just wish we could have helped him.
Mainstream music was awful in '89-95? You must be kidding.. The high of Bryan Adams, Paul Abdul, Boyz II Men, Mariah Carey, Withney Houston, Madonna, Janet and Michael Jackson, Roxette, London Beat, Enigma, AC/DC, Metallica, Guns n Roses, and more. All had billboard level hits, and they were good.
Jay-Z even made a statement when Nirvana popped onto the scene that they stalled the rise of Hip-Hop for a while. And there's a clip on some documentary of Dr. Dre jamming to a Nirvana song saying it was his favorite Rock group
The Defiant ones. It's a 4 episode doc and everyone needs to watch.
@@nathantrust Yes, very good mini series
@@nathantrust thank you! Im on it!
Yes he was jammin to Stay Away lmao classic
For a while? If not for Nirvana, Rap would've been more mainstream that Rock by 1995.
Wave that started by Nirvana, made Rock more relevant than Rap for atleast a decade. I dont think Rap was *more* mainstream than Rock until Mid/Late 2000s
“Why this shit sound so familiar” bro it came out in the 90s there’s NO way you haven’t heard this
Nate Childs seriously. Dude is bullshitting for views, straight up
Jason smh lol 😂 at least I’m not the only one who notices this stuff
Jason he literally says he heard it before just never actually listened to jy
It*
& you expect the whole world know this particular song? Really? Still, many not ever heard of them, so chill.
Most “iconic” song of all time! Wish we could go back to the 90’s!
90s music was elite
“Why this shit sound so familiar?” That’s why it was ranked the most iconic song of all time.
I remember the exact moment I first heard this song...we were playing 90's Hip Hop at a party and someone handed me this CD and asked me to play it...music was never the same for me after that :-)
Yeah, this song and the video were an experience for me too. Had never heard anything like that before!
- Lil.Swiper.2ez - Disappointed.
Same for me. I remember the exact moment, the exact location... (it was MTV). I knew instantly that this is a huge game changer.
Stuffed Beagle great story! I just shared mine a few moments ago.
🤘🏼
Love this. A genuine reaction. Didn’t pretend you’d never heard it. But you’d never listened to it properly before. Don’t listen to the rock snobs. I’m glad you’ve joined us. Super underrated Nirvana song: You Know You’re Right.
Love when people do shit like this to try and expand their listening preferences. A lot of people nowadays are too biased and stick to one genre. Respect for giving this type shit a listen brotha🖤💯
The song actually came out in 1991. Also, the lead singer "Kurt Cobain" died in 1994.
Fredrik Nydahl Kurt
He was murdered because he was leaving the band and had hired a divorce attorney. Courtney Love knew her free ride was coming to an end.
While she’s never been directly linked to his murder she’s always been the prime suspect in his death in the public’s eyes. She’d have lost everything without him.
Her marriage was over. She was going to lose custody of Francis Bean. Her music career would’ve failed without her ability to steal Kurt’s songs. She’d have been nothing. She’d have gone back to whoring herself out to feed her addictions.
Oh, not to mention her pages of handwriting practice, meant to MIMIC Kurt's specific style, found in her backpack. Whoops. *collective shrug*
why does this sound familiar? "doo deh chick do deh" was this on a commercial or somthing?
*BRUH*
Its not "doo deh chick do deh" you dumbass
This song and this band in general resonated with everybody immediately because they basically created a new genre of music that nobody had heard before. They single handedly changed the landscape of the scene. RIP Kurt. Very sad how his death went down.
Basically the anthem of my high school years. Ah Grunge.
Come as you are, lithium, heart shaped box, all apologies....these are all great songs from Nirvana to check out. Very influential group!!!!!!
Imagine being 16 when this came out and you just got your first car. Good times.
Most of Kurt's lyrics throughout his career reference his depression and how he used it to make money and how much he hated himself for it and for never putting himself in a position to get better or even want to get better...like, a meta-meta view of his own suffering. Or maybe I'm talking outta my ass. Kurt is a myth and a legend.

1990 still had a lay over of 80's style rock and metal. This song in 1991 changed everything. New decade, New sound.
Nirvana started the whole grunge music scene in the early 90s and without them a whole genre of music wouldnt have came to fruition.. this was one of their mainstream hits that awoke the entire industry to a new sound that would forever change the face of music... they dont have a bad song and even the covers that they did are masterpieces!
Jason LeBeau The Man Who Sold The World is an amazing cover! Totally agree with you.
I agree and disagree. There were popular grunge bands prior to nirvana. Soundgarden , pearl jam, temple of the dog, Alice in chains. Kurt just made it mainstream. Even though he didn't want to
Jason LeBeau they didn’t start the grunge music scene. They were just the ones who made it mainstream. If you want to know who started it you’d have to look at Green River they weren’t huge outside of Washington, but some of their members formed Pearl Jam, Temple of the Dog, and mother love bone. Theyre considered pioneers of grunge music.
Jason LeBeau Can’t leave out Chris Cornell and Soundgarden
Justin Pfeiffer, Mother Love Bone, Pearl Jam, and Temple were essentially the same band.
But the Seattle sound existed long before anyone had heard of them. The Seattle area has a long history of turning out huge bands.
Nirvana - where did you sleep last night or something in the way
Something in the way is my favourite. The original Sappy is one of my favourites too
I don't recommend Where Did You Sleep @ Night as it isn't a Nirvana song and you could risk getting copyrighted
where did you sleep last night is a cover of a 1940s song. I'd rather see a reaction to the original. (leadbelly) and save the nirvana reactions for original music
@@ailm3ntrx658 Where Did You Sleep Last Night isn't an original but it's a damn good video to watch as you clearly see all the pain that Kurt was suffering from.

This song single handedly CHANGED rock music
His voice,the riff, the quiet and loud phase, and lyrics being mysterious, and at the same time deep, and it cut straight to the point unlike songs before his time with like the hr long guitar solos. And it’s basically riot song for his fans
"I feel stupid and contagious"
Who else is here in 2020 quarantine?
Tell me about it 😢🤦♀️

Here we are now, entertain us.
Yep
JCarson great comment my man
“We might have to do more nirvana” that killed me. Man, I love you’re reaction it felt so good to see someone get into nirvana in 2019. Rock on man
It resonates because it grabs you by your gut!! Young wild and constrained.. Every young person has felt that
It blows my mind that there are hugely popular and ever-played songs that have been around for decades that some people have never heard.
IT'S MY NEW FAVORITE THING TO WATCH.
WE'RE LIVING VICARIOUSLY THROUGH YOU IN THESE REACTIONS.

Time to jump down the rabbit hole my friend. Check: Plateau
And yes, ' lots of shit like this,' ... im old and they still were kickass. Go grunge!
This was generation song, teenage problems, a new scene. Heart shaped box is awesome, oh so many great songs. David Groul was the original drummer and us now the lead singer of the Foo Fighter and his brother Taylor Groul is the drummer for Foo Fighters. . Foo Fighters are a another great band!
This song defined a generation. It was the end of 80s rock and the beginning of 90s rock. It inspired about 20 years of rock bands. Its a before and after moment in music history.
It's unfathomable how big this was. Top 10 most famous songs of all time.
This song completely changed the landscape of music in 1991.
This song was posted in the 90s, Kurt Kobain (the singer) killed himself. The dummer of Nirvana is Dave Grohl went on to make a band called Foo Fighters after Kurts Passing
Where was it posted in the 90's exactly? I didn't know there was social media in the 90's! To think of all those 90's dank memes I missed out on... :(

Nirvana released three albums (Bleach, Nevermind, and In Utero), as well as an acoustic concert widely considered as an album unto itself, before their lead singer, Kurt Cobain, committed suicide in 1994. Their drummer, Dave Grohl, went on to form the Foo Fighters.
Other great songs by them include All Apologies, About A Girl, Lithium, Come as You Are, In Bloom.

how can u forget territorial pissings :(
Ok man. Go to watch the clip: "Nirvana - Heart Shaped Box"
blenzo sad my favorite song by them!
Yea heart shaped box is my fav nirvana song
Come as you are is my favorite song by Nirvana
Favorite song!!!!!!
Why not the underrated ones
The song with the lyrics being everywhere represents the chaos of the teenage mind and it really resonates with us if for no other reason because we can relate back to that. Even in its days the song transcended genres and generations. Their first album came out in 1989 and with only three true albums it still attracts teens today to listen to it.
That’s probably why it resonates with me so well, when your in a setting with just kids you age some things don’t add up, it’s almost primal.
I remember 30 years ago, being in a pub and seeing the black lads I knew getting into this record, that's when you Know you've heard a game changing record.
Right!? EVERYONE loved this shit when it came out
Are they making music? Man, the lead singer killed himself in the 90’s. Curt Kobain is like the 2pac of grunge.
Kurt*
Kurt cobain*
Kurt Cobain
Kurt for the win!!
We all know he didnt kill himself...
From high school till now, NEVER get sick of this. Still brings me chills.
Same
Am I the only who feels high while hearing this song every time. A feeling I wanna hold on forever.
Man made great music and this one speaks to the heart of many It's a powerful message 🙌
I'm just sitting here waiting for another Nirvana to arrive to reset music again. I remember the day Nirvana hit, overnight the entire music industry changed. The only other artist to ever have that affect was The Beatles. Everyone went from 80's rock and pop, to the next week 90's grunge, they even changed fashion.
James Ryan others have done such things. Elvis, mj, animals, pick Floyd with sud barrett
The sex pistols did the same
The reason this song was so big in the 90s was because it introduced a new genre of music called grunge.
Don't worry bro just you wait another one will come soon
Music industry’s dead
I know I’m late to comment on this but “Come as you are” and “lithium” are both great songs. And anything off of the unplugged album are great.
Muhammed Yiğit Aykurt Incesticide best album imo
come as you are is a rip off
just like teen spirit, rip off
@@user-hx4ez6tu6y what
No no no. Why on earth would you recommend those. Especially come as you are. One of the most boring songs he made.
The reason for why this song is so popular is because of how revolutionary it was when it first came out. At the time in 1991, Smells Like Teen Spirit was a new blend of Alternative and Grunge that basically wiped everything else off the map.
layedbak your a legend gotta a lot of love for you man.
THIS song killed pop Hair Metal of the 80's. It was a revolution in music.
Celtic Spirits Coven no U
I don’t think it did but they had great original trend
ohh it did, before this it was all stadium rock, Aerosmith, Guns and Roses etc etc . . After this, things just went nuts. This is the song that set the 90's on fire.
Celtic Spirits Coven fun thing is , i talked about this with my steph father this week. And he said the exact same, i knew it was the case, but he said "the day that Smells like Teen Spirit came out was the very last day i ever heard Hair Metal"
Yep. Was 18, and snuck into a bar to watch my boyfriends band when this video played for the first time. Everyone in that bar knew what just happened.
This is the official anthem of white kids in the 90s. This song changed everything. I remember exactly where I was when I heard Kurt had died. I remember kids at school crying. Nirvana meant a lot to a lot of people.
I was a senior in high school and we were on a yellow bus going to our lacrosse game and one of the kids on my team with head phones yelled out “yo Kurt Cobain died”. It was our John Lennon moment.
Kurt Cobain would have been disgusted by your comment. He once stated: "If you're a sexist, racist, homophobe or basically an asshole, don't buy this CD. I don't care if you like me, I hate you."
@@MH-zg5yw well I mean it seems kinda true even in the music video there’s a lot of white people I don’t see any brown or black people
@@MH-zg5yw how the fuck is he being racist?
@@MH-zg5yw Kurt Cobain literally called it "white boy funk" he would not be offended
Kids don’t release how much airplay this song got in the 90s. It dominated MTV for years. Not weeks or months, years.
"And I forget just why I taste, Oh yeah I guess it makes me smile"! Line is dope af
RIP Kurt Cobain. May your spirit live on through the lives of us all.
Feel ya boy
@@paulepejos Preach. I was born the year this song came out.
Even thought Kurt hated this song because it didn’t deserve to be this famous, it defined an entire generation, and made an anthem for teens. Everybody who’s born should be required to listen to this. Literally one of the greatest songs of all time
@AntiqueAncestry- it's "Even THOUGH' Kurt hated... Just adding that
letter "t" at the end can misconstrue your comment that even Kurt "thought"
he hated this song, he did hate this song, sounds out of context by that typo
error of one letter.

Robert Salesky damn
I was 12 when this came out and it freaking blew up along with the rest of the grunge era Alice in chains, soundgarden,, mudhoney, pearl Jam etc they all were so great those were the days I wish the 90's would come back again
This song still gives me chills to this day. They changed music history with this song. Rock had meaning, grit and, raw, unbridled angst and talent again.
I remember this vividly.
My stoner friends marked the hell out of Nirvana back then.
Kurt Cobain died right around the same time Tupac was killed and my stoner friends were just as heartbroken as my Tupac fans were.
Tupac Shakur and Kurt Cobain are of legendary status in 2020 for a reason.
ik now in 2020 kids be vaping at the age of freaking 11 and listen to cardi b and horrible music. back the like nirvana red hot chilli pepers and bands like that were the bomb.
@@jofj6184 What's sad is when we only notice when it's happening in our countries. Kids have been struggling all around the world, mentally, emotionally, physically, spiritually for a long time.

"Up to a billions views. Why do yall think this song resonated so much?"
I have your answer. Let me set the scene for you. It's 1992. The rock airwaves are dominated by 'hair metal' bands like Guns n Roses, Poison, Def Leppard. 80's rock. White dudes with eyeliner, leather pants and high heels. On the opposite side you have Michael Jackson and Madonna...that's literally it. All of a sudden, a band rises from Seattle and kicks down MTV's doors with a sound that's never been heard before. To today's millennials, it's a familiar sound...one of normality with nothing special to it. But, in 1992, it was a sounds that was never heard before. Elvis Presley in the 1950's. The Beatles in the 1960's, Led Zepplin in the 1970's, Michael Jackson in the 1980's. They produced sounds that defined entire generations! Nirvana in the 1990's. This song was groundbreaking. It BURIED the white girly-men of the "hair metal" genre of the 1980's and drop kicked early 90's Pop and R&B to the backseat. This song pushed Nirvana to #1 on the Billboard Charts and immediately transformed them into Gods. EVERY rock or metal sounds of today is traced back to THIS song, by Nirvana. That's why this song resonates so much. Like Michael Jackson's Billie Jean it was industry altering at that time.
That is the best description as to how they changed music in the 90s. It led the way for the so many different genres.
As well as creating a new genre. GRUNGE.
Not exactly never heard of before, but not in the mainstream. Kurt Cobain himself listed Pixies as one of his biggest inspirations, and if you listen to for example Gouge Away you can really hear the influence.
But that was in the 90's before CZcams, do you know why they have so many views in the present day?
@@personalinfo6263 cause it's a song that resonates with the sheer rage and desire to wild out that so many people have, at least imo.
When you get to the chorus after the buildup you can't not headbang
This song is just emblazoned on my mind..timeless classic💯
I came here just for this video. I love these reaction videos to Nirvana. Really enjoyed it ❤
"why this song is so huge on CZcams?"
well first of all, this song is from 1991, if it made it to almost one billion on CZcams, just imagine how huge it already was before CZcams was even created lol
And also, this band and the lead singer (and other artists of course) started a whole new movement (grunge) and represented an entire legion of teenagers that also felt awful with all the hypocrisy and bad things that were happening in the 80' and 90' all around the world
This song is their greatest hit, it's mainly about how most of the young people preferred to be distracted by the entertainment and media industry, instead of focusing and fighting on the serious and more important things that was going on (quite an irony this song being so popular on media, right?)
aaaaaalso, it sounds great and catchy and is easy to bounce your head to it lol 🤷♀️
And really, Nirvana was one of the bigger grunge groups, people tend to neglect some of the others, like Alice in Chains.
Damn couldnt said it better myself
besides dat, these songs spoke wat part of the marginalized ppl thought of everything around em, something revolutionary until then.
True, couldn't have said it better myself. But I've always found it funny that Kurt hated Teen Spirit.
@@lilac_reed soundgarden and Pearl Jam. Those 4 bands were the ones who Started it all
I don't understand this guy, in 2019, everyone know Smells like teen sprit
I know people who have never even heard of Nirvana let alone a song
Do you believe that I've never heard tupac
I do
In bloom lithium polly come as you are breed serve the servants
JS Channel yes
There’s so many fantastic Nirvana songs you can react to. Heart Shaped Box, Polly, All Apologies, In Bloom, Lithium, Something in the Way, Come as You are, to name a few.
Breed is my favorite
Don’t forget drain you
Nailed it with the switch up. It goes hard then switches to a melodic riff. I think that has a very pleasing quality. And your right, his voice. The gravely almost haunting tone.
It’s sad that he killed himself. The drummer is now the singer of the Foo Fighters. Thanks for playing this!!!
Wake up
kinda sad huh
😯 I didn't know that. I like the foo fighters too but he was the drummer for Nirvana?! 🤯
And on the albums he replaces the drummers drumming with his own then on tour the other drummer is the drummer... talk about hurt feelings.
I think He got murdered watch his documentary
High School Flashbacks 💭 💭 I was devastated when he died. I was 17. 🥺. I was a total grunger in high school 🤟🏽
This song is so iconic jay z and Justin Timberlake use the chores in holy grail
Nirvana: one of those bands that will ALWAYS be cool
The thing about this song, as the beginning of grunge, was that it was so different from everything from the plastic and over produced 80's. Nirvana was coarse and heavy, the opposite of the top 40 music. They, and those that followed, spoke to the counter culture of the time. Until they became mainstream, and what was cool changed.
Scott J Indie Rock was the shit back in the day 🤘🏽
And it dropped out of a underground scene in Seattle of all places. LA, Nashville, and none of the other music hubs knew what hit them. Love this music as much as I did 30 years ago, maybe even a little more. It definitely ages well. Cheers!
Grunge was the antithesis of brit pop, the most popular genre at the time
It was a song we needed at this time. It helped me get through shit I would never wish upon any human being. Semper Fi!
Been listening to this song for years. It never gets old
This song represented all us outcasts and freaks and geeks, who were stuck in no name towns, with no prospects and no future for something better. We were the generation x.
Lol ik you were the “I’m 14 and this was deep” kid
not really what the grunge movement was but ok lol
No it didn’t lol
This song represented dumb fuck America and the lack of actual talent or reason behind trends. The song is a literal play on nonsense and gerbil for the sake of popularity. It was poking fun at the people who idolized it.
I disagree big time. There were songs by the Ramones, The Damned, Ministry, The Exploited, etc. that represented outcasts as well. Nirvana may have resonated with yoiu, but their music in no represented Generation X
listening to the best song in the world right here yo. more nirvana for sure
First time I heard this, late ‘91… I remember where I was exactly and I was blown away. The sonics, the explosiveness and just how it made me feel. Bought the record next day, later learned to play and these guys were a massive influence.
This might be the most famous song in rock history and maybe in all music history same with their band “Nirvana”
Song cause a revolution. Hasn't been one close since
for fucking real
Scar Tissue...
