This is literally the first time I've heard anyone compare Nirvana to rap. Interesting.
I was thinking the same exact thing and I literally grew up on this song getting played in the car when I was only 5 maybe 6 years old sitting in the backseat
Mumble rap
Steve Clarkson ?
@@justayoutubecommentator3059 if you don't get that, I don't know what to tell you lol.
Totally makes sense to me, from a pop music perspective.
The look on your face is all of us hearing Nirvama for the first time
That's a fact lol
Show ya right
The first few times I watched this, (mind you we had to wait hours or days to see it again) I was just put in a trance watching it. It was like, this is it.....this is my music that I like. Keep in mind I was 15 or 16 in 1991. Chills.....that best describes it. You just get chills listening to this song.
I'll never forget being 20 and hearing this for the first time!
It was a Great time to be a 21yo in Seattle. So many great shows and memories. So many more that I cant even remember. The good ol' daze
Kurt Cobain once said that rap was the only vital form of music since punk rock.
oh how he would cry with nowadays rap with mumble and no context that matters.
@@seppoharkkonen5766 if anything Kurt would appreciate the fact that people are creating new lanes and sub genres, he would never agree with such a stupid ass statement like yours
@@siftwram 👏
same spirit, different form
@@seppoharkkonen5766 no he would love it stoopid
Welcome to Nirvana, This was THE band in the early 90's, so many artist in all generas today credit this band as a big influence to them.
Alice In Chains would like a word about that statement…
still in the picture for top 3 even nowadays
Teen Spirit was the name of a teenage girl's brand of deodorant.
Yep - I totally used that deodorant in the early 90s. I probably begged my mom to get it instead of whatever she used 😂
Yep Kurt's girlfriend at the time use to wear it.
Someone wrote grafitti on the wall of the house: "Kurt Smells Like Teen Spirit."
@@themoviedealers kathleen hanna of bikini kill wrote it on the wall
Holy hell I completely forgot that! Just you saying it though and I instantly can even remember what it smells like!
Oh Mr Video, welcome to Nirvana. You can’t go wrong with any of their songs, but some favorites: Heartshaped Box, Come as You Are, In Bloom.
Drain you, On a Plane, Even In his youth.....soooo many .
In Bloom by far.
Their cover of Lake of Fire, so so sweet.
Aneurysm, Scentless Apprentice, Negative Creep, Breed
Add dumb to that
The most definitive song of Generation X. This song literally changed everything.
This is our anthem. Oh, well. Whatever. Nevermind.
Specifically in America yeah
You can't listen to this song now and grasp how different it felt than everything that came before. We went from hair rock to grunge overnight because of this song.
If you can't help but start headbanging/bobbing your head to it.. yes..
In Europe specially in GERMANY it was the HIT! Changed my life forever ☠️🤘🏻😎 It’s an anthem for PUNK scene!
I envy this man so hard for having the chance to hear all these amazing songs for the first time right now!!
This song literally was the death nail in the coffin of 80s glam rock. Changed the music scene overnight. Only around for a few years before the lead singer took his life. Drummer went on to form the Foo Fighters, 25 years strong. They have a string of FFantastic songs - the Pretender, Everlong, Best of You, Learn to Fly, Walk, Run, Rope, White Limo, Big Me, Sky is a Neighborhood.
💖 Foo Fighters!!
I remember just absolutely huge they got in a matter of a couple of months. Smells dropped late-september-ish, by xmas they were mega stars.
I remember well the rise & death of Hair Metal. Alice in Chains then Nirvana right behind. Pearl Jam next. These were the last of the great rock bands
Tfft!
100% right! However, I think him and Nikki Sixx, would have really hit it off. Cobain was otherworldly.
I'm back in high school. Just tie a flannel shirt around my waist n give me some black boots
Demi's World I wasn’t a teen in 91 but I was in my 30’s and I loved this music 🎤🎸🎶
And some Dr Marten boots!
I am putten on my Airwalks and JNCO jeans....with my skateboard
I miss those days 🥺
Don’t forget your jorts
I remember when this joint dropped when I was in high-school. Even us hip hop heads was loving this track. Straight 🔥🔥🔥. I miss the 90s
"Look at my arm minus the ash"...dude u are pure gold. 1 billion subscribers coming up!
Drummer is now the lead singer for the foo fighters
Which is either good or bad depending on how one feels about the foo
@@mgmjferg89 why would it be bad? Not listening to them is always an option.
You mean the drummer here started foo fighters, lead vocals, plays lead/rythym guitar and does most if not all the songwriting....
aaron wetzel well at first yes, but now it’s a band with Dave on lead singer and guitar, but he still shreds the damn drums
@@zaynebrown9072 exactly, don't know much about him. Feel like drums were his first thing
This song changed rock music forever. If you go looking online for lists of the top 100 rock songs of all time, this is almost always in the top 5. It birthed a new genre, "Grunge", which it turn birthed other genres and sub genres.
It was an amazing time.. remember reading literally hundreds of articles about them. I recall no stations where I lived would play their stuff because it didn't fit on the top 40, wasn't classic rock, rap, country, wasn't metal, so it didn't fit in, so they just wouldn't play it. Started referring to it at first graciously as the Seattle sound... then as the olders clutched their pearls, Grunge was born screaming into the world 😄
I think The Pixies were truly the birth of Grunge but Nirvana certainly brought it to the fore and put it on the map.
this song didnt invent "grunge", bands like mother love bone, green river, etc. "invented" it. its basically just a way to describe seattle music
I've heard people say the Pixies were the Rosetta Stone for alternative 90' s rock!
Lol,I have only started calling it grunge in the last ten years sort of....did y'all call it grunge back in the day? I don't remember when it was officially coined that....back in the day we had the college rock charts too. Like The Replacements and REM were on those charts, it's what university radio stations played.
Stupid and contagious is how I felt through a lot of the 90’s.
Kurt had such an unparalleled ear for rhythm, tempo, and melody
Dave Grohl on drums, after Kurt Cobain's suicide/murder (believe what you want) he started Foo Fighters, he's the singer but for their first album it was all Dave, he played every instrument on every song. Dude is an icon.
From being in one great band to being in another one
...and another curious death... js
I’m still a grunge kid 🖤 and I still wear flannel around my waist.
Same...and Doc Marten 1460 combat boots!
Angel Robirds Hell yeah!
I can't wait intil it's cool enough to wear my wool plaid shirt again . It"s gonna be a while since I live in South Carolina .
Interesting fact...before Grunge 'borrowed' them, flannys were the staple wardrobe of aussie bogans who listened to AC/DC and grew up either poor or working class in the 1970's/80's. You'll see them in a lot of early AC/DC film clips and photo shoots.
Yup.
Fun Fact: This is the greatest song of all time.
The American version of punk is born ! Grunge arrived in the mainstream and the style , the anti singing , the can’t be arsed attitude with it. Society was hopeless and this art appeared because of it🙌🏻
Dude PLEASE ck out *Where Did You Sleep Last Night* by him. Them. You'll be blown away by the song and his performance. MTV unplugged vid. Chilling, raw old blues song. He kills it!
Kj robbi im pretty sure it was his last ever performance before....
Great freaking song
That was Lead Belly. Nirvana covered it. Kurt says it before they get into jam.
I came here to say this. Fucking legendary performance
Based on a true story
Yes, dude, please.... Or Man who Sold the World (Bowie cover)
Oh hell, another bring-me-back song. The 90s. Road trips to the beach blasting Nirvana. Such a loss.
90's grunge was sloop good
Layne Staley Alice in Chains, some Mother Love Bone and I'm good
Not sure what the lost was... Kurt Cobain? Or fucking comparing rap with Nirvana. Either way, Nirvana was NEVER meant to be compared to rap.
@Chris Le Guen I edited my comment, it was not intentional if it was understood the wrong way. English is my 2nd language.
@@ibelieveinsomething3895 Uh, yeah. The 27-yo man who killed himself was the loss. The man who played a major part in the birth of grunge rock. The man with a young wife and daughter at the time. The man who suffered depression and addiction. That was the loss.
I don't even know what you're talking about comparing it to rap and how that even contextually makes sense to call that comparison a [loss].
I was a 24 year old grunge girl wearing flannel shirts, baggy jeans and combat boots...literally changed my style overnight once this dropped. Ahh take me back!
"I don't know what the heck I'm talking about." Dude....don't sell yourself short...that was the most accurate and concise summary of the message of this song I've probably ever heard, holy shit.
Careful with the 90's trip, you may just happen to stumble upon:
Alice in Chains
Soundgarden
Green Day
Stone Temple Pilots
Incubus
Korn
and many other sick bands.
Audioslave , Chris cornell, one of the best voices in rock history. Shadow on the sun, like a stone , Chris cornell Billie Jean cover , a must. A MUST.
Alice In Chains!!!
alice in chainsssss yessss
Oh man....I think he needs to hear Black Hole Sun or Man in the Box .... etc etc etc too many to list.
You forgot Jane's Addiction.
I think this is the first time ever I see a person comparing Nirvana to rap music. You might be right, Mr. Video. Kurt Cobain probably would have been glad about that.
First time I'd thought about it, too. I found that interesting.
Nirvana would play NWA on their tour bus. They were a big fan of rap music.
Same, first time but I totally see where he's coming from! Kurt is spittin bars more than singing almost. Also Kurt would've been happy to hear it :)
The song's vibe. Like a riot song
@@b00jen81 maybe. But I think If he was the kind of person to be happy for such frivolousness he probably wouldn't have shot himself.
I grew up in the Pacific Northwest and was just the right age to see all of the grunge bands live before they broke big. Good years. Nirvana was amazing live.
The entire album that this song comes off of(Nevermind) is hit after hit. It's all gold.
Lyrics:
Load up on guns, bring your friends
It's fun to lose and to pretend
She's over-bored and self-assured
Oh no, I know a dirty word
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello
With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino, a mosquito, my libido
Yeah, hey
I'm worse at what I do best
And for this gift I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello
With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now,…
A denial, a denial, a denial, a denial, a denial, a denial, a denial, a denial, a denial, a deniaaaallllll....
Mesquito?
Huh.
With the light out it’s less dangerous.
I always heard:
As a lifestyle, this is dangerous.
Learn something new everyday!
You left out my favorite part.
And I forget just why I taste
Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard, It's hard to find
Oh well, whatever, never mind
This was the shit when I was in 6th grade
You should DEFINITELY check out "where did you sleep last night" ... itll give you goosebumps on top of your teen spirit goosebumps
Leadbelly cover. Good stuff. Check out Leadbelly too mr video. A performer way way before his time
The MTV Unplugged version
Definitely
Or Lake of Fire
Agreed
I’ll never forget hearing this song for the first time, stopping in my tracks and saying, Who the Hell is This?!
This song CHANGED THE COURSE of music. It put a merciful end to the 1980’s “hair bands” and “glam rock”’where guys looked like chicks. This ushered in “GRUNGE” with other GREAT bands like Soundgarden, Alice In Chains, Pearl Jam and other great bands. “GRUNGE” music came out of Seattle, not L.A. like all the “Glam Rock” bands. This song helped change the course of rock and roll.
Is that one of the many reasons Axl Rose had beef with Nirvana?
I don't know if he would ever admit it but axle had more in common with Kurt than one would think
Another GREAT one gone FAR too soon
RIP to a legend.
A legend for sure. But his voice probably would’ve been blown out years ago singing like that. Case in point, Puddle of Mud... Not to disrespect him. He changed music forever.
There was no way Nirvana was not going to rule the world with Nevermind.
You do know GNR released 2 Illusion albums, and Black album by Metallica in the same year??
This the song that also blew everyones minds back in the 90's, when everyone was listening to Motley Crüe and Poison
Finally someone like me!, hearing rap influences in Nirvana's music, also if you pay attention to Dave Grohl (Drummer) you can hear a type of hip-hop groove and still heavy asf, I've always love it
He’s since said the drum grooves are straight up Gap Band. So, not far off.
A girl Kurt was hanging out with said 'You smell like Teen Spirit', it was a deoderant from the late 80s.
If you like this you should check out The Pixies, it's the band Kurt said he was trying to rip off with this song.
It does remind me of the Pixies...Monkey Gone To Heaven
I thought that was Courtney Love that said, "Smells like Teen Spirit in here"
@@fidge54 It was Kathleen Hanna, the singer for Bikini Kill (and later for Le Tigre).
@@MRoyClark Thanks
I don't think he was trying to rip them off. He heard the song after recording and said "that sounds like a pixies song"
One of my all time favorite bands right here Mr video!!!!!!!
R.i.p. Kurt cobain
@Jason King I agree with everything you said and always wonder that to and being 45 years old experiencing nirvana from when they was around and seeing what they did outside of music...i remember seeing on MTV when kurt died crazy times....and with them ushering in grunge I think they would be like the band kiss
This is Almost everyone's first taste of "Grunge Metal"... "rock"
What you just reacted to was arguably the band & song that ended "80's Metal" and kicked off "Grunge" in the early 90's. Practically overnight, everyone traded in their black leather and hairspray for flannel. I remember it well. Nirvana was historic. Oh... "Teen Spirit" was a popular perfume back then.
Smells like Teen Spirit, at I always believed (correctly so, too..though Kurt later deplored his mistaken misappropriation) was a facetiously funny nod to a certain girl's deodorant scent produced by Mennen that was as ubiquitous to the 90's as Bath & Body Works' Sun-Ripened Raspberry body spray, Elizabeth Arden's eau de toilette, 'Sunflowers', and Davidoff's 'Cool Waters'.
😉🥰🤣
RIP Kurt Cobain😭💔
And on that day hair bands bowed to the new king.
I’m constantly blown away by how fresh Mr. Video’s interpretations and impressions of these songs are! I’m also interested that people are so surprised by his comparison of nirvana to rap. Is it so hard to believe? If you look at old interviews you will find that a lot of rappers, Puff Daddy off the top of my head, liked “Nevermind” a lot. When Mr. Video made the point about the pre-chorus, or whatever you would like to call it, I could definitely hear it as a hook for a banger!
An absolute must is to follow this with Weird Al "Smells like Nirvana".
Upvote so that he sees this and checks it out.
Next: Weird Al Yankovic’s parody, “Smells Like Nirvana.” Having this song fresh in your mind makes it easier to understand the parody.
This is a MUST!!!!!!
amish paradise is great too
"...all these marbles in my mouth" lol
A must.
YES, must do Weird Al 's parody while you still remember this video.
I can't understand a word Cobain is saying, but I still love this song.
Kathy Sober everyone in the 90s LOL, right?
No one can..
I don't think Cobain knew either
Yeah its grunge rock and rock roll
I understood every word...
This song makes me cry cause it just hits sooo different. It is so nostalgic and one of a kind.
Weird Al Does a great parody. Nirvana unplugged on MTV was an AMAZING live performance. About A Girl and Penny Royal Tea are good ones from there along with The Man Who Sold the World (David Bowie cover) and Where Did You Sleep Last Night ( im not certain who the original artist was). They also do Heart Shaped Box which is a good video and Come as You Are is a classic video.
WHAT A GODDAMN FUN REACTION!!!!!!!!!! First time listen?? AMAZING, I'm stunned!! RIP KURT!!!!!!!!!
this was voted the no.1 song of the 90's by.... someone
I was a teen when this came out and fell in love with Nirvana! I get chills every time I hear this song on the radio, and I mean every time. Amazing band, RIP Kurt
Always blows me away when I hear someone say they've never heard this.
Ok I’m getting nothing done today!! 🤣🤣 Great song!! Check out Dave Grohl of “The Foo Fighters” on the drums 🥁 🎸🎤🎶 Yes this is “Chill Worthy” 👍🏼
Lol, me either.
RIGHT....
I was looking to see if anyone told him about Dave and the Foo Fighters 🤘😊
Nirvana are The Godfathers of “Grunge” music.
Well Mother Lovebone was before them and if you want the REAL root of it you need to look @ emocore with Rites of Spring and Honor Role.
How about Neil Young and Crazy Horse?
more like the grandchildren
You're wrong, but I am not going to type another book on here to explain it to you Jeffrey. Nirvana were mega famous but they are not the "Godfathers of Grunge" and did not start the scene at all. Please do proper research before posting incorrect information so that young people will learn the true history. Thank you, have a nice day.
Alice In Chains started right before them I think
I can remember where I was, what I was doing, and what I was wearing when I first heard this song. It was a life changing moment. I feel your chills.
This is one of the most honest reactions I've seen. Shit is absolutely fire isn't it? Kurt is definitely missed.
When the next generation didn’t feel like they belonged until this song made them did! GRUNGE FOREVER! 💕
“Drain You”, live from Reading 1992 is a great one!
This song still hits so hard 30 years later!!!
Sorry I'm late to the party...I see this was a reaction from months ago...but you nailed this reaction and breakdown at the end! Hell yeah, they're saying they're entertainers and they're calling out how stupid the industry has become...they killed it, destroyed it, and rebuilt it. I can't wait until another artist comes and does this again! Anyhow...been watching a lot of your reactions today and loving them! Keep it up! If we're ever in eachothers towns, we're chilling and smoking and laughing my friend!
lithium, hart shaped box anything from first album .
Bleach was first studio album
there was a live tape before Bleach released too
i ostalo
The next Nirvana is Lithium, or All Apologies. And they're grunge, not rap. LOL
Lounge act would be my pick
Big Long Now
LOVE your reaction as usual. I remember this one so well! (They used to play this at a club my friends and I would go dancing at. Whenever they would play this it meant the "real" dance music was coming.)
"Minus the ash" you so crazy. you have a wit that can be missed
You’re taking me back to middle school, flannel shirts and converse sneakers which I still rock, lol. A life changing band!!!! Thanks for the flashbacks, check out the song Lithium ✌️💗😊
The birth of Grunge
Nah. Melvins and Mudhoney.
More like the breakthrough of grunge to the mainstream..... very temporarily.
Yeah metal rock seem to go out the window when this came out... 😎
No
You couldn't escape this song when it came out, it blew tf up!
This was one of the dopest videos I have seen in a while. Legendary song; Glad you shared your reaction with us!
You should react to some live Nirvana! Their "Live and Loud" concert was really well produced. I recommend Lithium, Blew, Rape Me, or Heart Shaped Box from that show. They were a FORCE live..
My favorite Nirvana songs are Something in the Way and Breed
Still Gives Me Goosebumps As Well!
Best reaction EVER!!!!!!!! Love ur appreciation for good music, regardless of genre
"Smells Like Teen Spirit" - the song that launched a thousand flannel-clad bands, and completely changed the course of popular music for an entire decade. I remember those goosebumps for the first time I heard that monster riff, and the roaring voice of a generation. Your reaction excellently capture what that moment was like for me and mine.
When he said "I like it! I like it!", I thought, yup, that's how just about EVERYONE felt back in 91.
you gotta react to their songs in bloom, heart shaped box and lithium. all crazy songs
It’s great watching you experience these songs for the first time. I love it!
Best part of going on vacation... coming back and catching up on all your content!!! Thanks for the reaction!!!
R.I.P.
KURT D COBAIN
Check out Nirvanas Unplugged stuff like Man who sold the world or where did you sleep last night
The grunge gates have been opened!! Yes!! I’ll never forget when MTV released this video, my music taste changed forever. I literally still listen to Nirvana to this day! A few of their songs are the first I learned to play on guitar. Keep doing Nirvana and check out Pearl Jam and Alice In Chains pleeeaaase! RIP Kurt.
Pearl Jam: Jeremy!
Welcome to growing up in the PNW in the 90s. Getting to see these guys live so many times was unforgettable.
Sending love from Oregon 🌲🌊❤
God, I remember being obsessed with nirvana in my teens, really spoke to my teenage angst, I still love them, it’s so exciting to see you experience them for the first time!
Thank you Mr Video!! 👌🤘 🔥🔥🔥
You have made my shi* day soo much better 😊
Peace and love ✌❤
Now, get down to Soundgarden, Mother Love Bone, Melvins, Green River...
Sonic Youth
Fuck yes!
and: Mudhoney, The Melvins!
Oh yes MLB
I love your reaction. I still have this on tape. Bought it when I was 16. Your reaction wasn't much different than mine, infectious beat. I couldn't help but headbang to it when it first came out, now I just nod aggressively.
Liked it at your opening cut, man... Give me...more!!!
SO weird; I was legit wondering earlier if you've ever done Nirvana😳 Welcome to the world of grunge! Kurt's unfortunately another member of the 27 club, along with other musicians such as Jimi, Janis, Jim Morrison, Robert Johnson, and Amy Winehouse, all lost far too soon at that young age😔
I don't know their ages . But , Buddy Holly , The Big Bopper , Richie Valens , Jim Croce , Steve Goodman , Stevie Ray Vaughan , all died too yong.
I read that phrase once. Someone very special to me took her life at 27. I beleived it was a curse.
No reaction to this song is complete without a Weird Al parody follow-up. Check out Smells Like Nirvana.
Your passion is just lovely 😍
The joy in your face; made my year.
When you are stoner , you understand every single word of smells like teen spirit.... hello hello hello hello how low this sounds like getting in , in a wormhole
- psychedelic experience
Imagine you're a teenager hearing this for the first time, like, in real time. When it came out, when you could see them in concert. When this was alive. Sure, snobs will say they didn't invent grunge, but they invented it as far as billions of people are concerned. This stuff, in the 90's was mind boggling amazing. Good for you for having an open mind and you clearly like music, whether white, black, yellow, purple, brown or whatever. :D 1-22-21
I LOVE... THAT YOU LOVE IT!!! PLEASE DO MORE NIRVANA!! THAT WHOLE ALBUM IS BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!
I remember first time hearing on MTV.....captured moments of time in my mind...thats when you know the music is so real
Try Weird Al Yankovich's version after this. It would be fun to see his weird interpretation. They consider Niverna's version "Grunge" in genre. By the way, I like this song. Cheers from Canada
Mr. Video needs to watch Weird Al's parody Smells Like Nirvana.
Dam am I glad I stumbled upon your channel during the holidays, keep up the hard work! The nostalgia you give me is insane!
The single best song of the 1990s.
My first ever concert. I'll never forget them.
You should react to Weird Al's parody of this song. Smells like Nirvana. Lol ita hilarious
I always sing those lyrics now. LOL!
I was thinking same as it was playing 😂 he mimicked the video pretty good 😅
@@hippychikforever I always sing the last verse weird al style lol.
weird al's version "smells like nirvana", and also we waitin for weird al "amish paradise" is parody of "gangstas paradise" by coolio
Damn right. Thanks for covering ❤️
One of maybe a dozen songs that I'll always remember where I was and what I was doing the first time I heard it.
