This is a good lesson. Many of us give up on the one thing we should be doing more of (and makes us us) because we had a bad experience with it (criticism etc.).
For a man whos legacy has been so shaped by Nirvana he doesn't overly mention kurt, when he does and it goes to a deep memory like this you can always hear the emotion is still right there just under the surface. I respect grohl for a lot of reasons but one of the main ones is he does so well at honouring that legacy while not over sharing for self promotion. Hes always so respectful about his and kurts privacy, but he gives us so much of an insight just with the emotion with which he tells those stories
Not a musician, I can at least appreciate his display of respect ( probably much more) of his friend and the immense talent . It's amazing. Like Eric saying Prince was the greatest.
He is more of an emotional person compared to Novaselik(sp?), who always struck me as more stoic. Pain like that never really goes away though.. it just lessens and dulls bit by bit by bit over time

I think another Nirvana album with Dave adding a few ideas would of been exactly what the band needed to develop and would of put them on a more interesting future trajectory
On one hand i'm bummed that we lost Kurt and Nirvana... On the other hand i'm fucking stoked that the loss resulted in us gaining the Foo Fighters and Dave stepping up as a front man! I guess it just goes to show that every cloud had it's silver lining
I’ve had a couple friends that met him and I’ve never heard a bad thing about him. Despite being insanely successful he genuinely seems to be a nice dude.
@@squiddlesmcdiddles3850 he has a message. I don't deny that. But his real gift is for musicianship, not words. He is ok on lyrics, but not one of the quotable greats like Cobain or Lennon
After pursuing music for nearly my whole life, nearly 10 years in the industry without ever really going anywhere or developing a real career, and my band of 5 years also went nowhere and disbanded - I really feel that "FUCK MUSIC" feeling. I've been distancing myself from it, haven't played in over 6 months. It's so hard when the thing that you're supposed to love, and is supposed to heal you becomes the source of the pain. I feel so lost. It's nice knowing even the successful feels that too.
I have wanted to start a project for a long time but could never find the right people, plus my family gets in the middle since I am the only musician/metalhead in the family and they are all skeptical about what I listen and what I play.

No. Dave is an example of a true artist. Doesn’t have an ego. Played the drums for nirvana and kept his mouth shut cause Kurt was a pretentious prick. Now Dave can sing his ass off. Play guitar bass drums write. Dave deserves way more credit as an artist than Kurt
@@AlexBahr-cr6kp You want artists to behave well? Lmao, like it or not, there's always a catch in every genius. And tbfh, Kurt's behavior was justifiable.
@@AlexBahr-cr6kp Foo's music is good, but boring compared to Nirvana. And as we can see, it doesn't have the same impact on the music world as Nirvana's does, so credit still goes to Kurt.

IMHO I feel that Kurt would have been immensely proud and supportive of the strides that Dave has made since his passing. I’m sure Kurt always knew that Dave had the talent to lead. I remember when I first heard that Dave was starting a new band post Nirvana. Given the gravity of this events, I was extremely cynical about him being a frontman. I’ve never been happier to be completely incorrect. This is why they do this, and I can not.

@@djdarq6311 That's exactly what the crappy, overrated Foo Fighters are: corporate rock, and I'm sure Kurt Cobain would loathe their music, tailored for teen movies...
So glad he never gave up after Nirvana. Music has dealt Dave some bad blows but as he says himself, it also heals. "Times like these, we learn to live again "
We had a little introduction of what Kurt and Dave would do with Scenteless Apprentice and Marigold. Too bad they are the only ones. I would love it if they released Exhausted and Easy Target
Could you imagine if Kurt would of had a chance to collab with Dave they woulda been like Paul & John such a shame we didnt get to hear it and they didnt get a chance 😪😪
He thinks Kurt committed suicide. Everyone close to Kurt thought it was outrageous that he would be murdered. Not anyone close to him thought he was killed by a hitman.
Why is it so hard for people to believe that someone like Kurt, who hated himself for his entire life and was in intense physical pain and a huge heroin user, killed himself ,..get off the Internet
Why the fuck would you ask him that? He knew first hand what kind of issues Kurt was dealing with mentally. Why the fuck you thing it's tough for him to even listen to an old Nirvana song?
That first foo record screams Northwest influences even bands like Hum and sunny day real estate, seaweed! It hits different and was the last time foos sounded that heavy.
Yeah it just sounds like normie radio rock to me, cant get into it. Lyrics are melodramatic and cheesy, riffs are lame and forgettable. There's nothing compelling or poignant about it, like with Nirvana.
I'm also a huge Nirvana fan, I am not into Foo Fighters either but one song of theirs that I really do enjoy is Long Road To Ruin, give it a shot if you haven't heard it, sure it's a little more radio friendly than a lot of Nirvana but regardless it's got substance and a cool guitar solo.
The more time that passes the more wild it is to remember that Dave was in Nirvana. Kurt seems so mythic at this point it’s crazy to think Dave personally knew him and hung out with him on the reg.
i can really relate to dave on the burnout. when you're the only one recording and writing on all instruments when you're by yourself, you get burned out a lot quicker then when the band is in the room and you're just focusing on one instrument while others also contribute ideas that decide the songs direction. it's a beautiful thing, being able to record an album all by yourself. however, it is exhausting, and that is an understatement.
He gave an interview where he said he never approached Kurt with any songs he created I remember distinctly because I thought Nirvana would have been even greater with Foo Fighters music added ❤❤
I think Dave Grohl was the McCartney of Nirvana ... he has the arranging brain and musicianship which paired perfectly with Kurt's original song writing.
This. Kurt liked SOME of the stuff he wrote for Nirvana, but what little snuck through Kurt’s filter was very different from Foo Fighters. The sort of bloodless sentimentality of Foo Fighters is exactly what Kurt was trying to avoid.
Friends would say to me “why are you not playing any music” while driving, as they are aware of me loving and playing music, even friends that didn’t know I played, I love all genres of music If it’s sounds good to me. Honestly I feel this is a musician thing to sometimes catch waves of not wanting to play or make any music but then at some random moment tune in and make some of the most beautiful sounding music. Ya there’s times where people don’t feel like listening to music (Non musicians), but coming from a musician myself I notice that whenever I’m feeling down music is not what I want at the moment, I’ll drive without it even. But that is the beauty of music is that when you’re tuned in, it is honestly the safest and most potent drug. It’s keeping me going in life.
I used to go to my mate I looked up to for feedback on my music… he would basically never say anything… it crushed my confidence to release what in retrospect are some of my best works.
I'm glad you didn't give music up love both of the bands you were in Nirvana and Foo fighters your band loved Kurt Cobain his music changed my life but so has your music with Foo fighters keep rockin rest in peace Kurt Cobain and Taylor Hawkins
what a shame Kurt did not last long enough to get to the point where Dave was writing music for Nirvana and getting Kurt to finish the songs. Could have been so amazing. It saddens me to this day that Kurt is gone. People give Dave a lot of shit, but he is a real musician and hard working.
What an amazing guy❤. I think it safe to say that for his fans, we all fell in love with him the moment we first experienced him. I was in Foot Locker. 😊 true lol
Dave Grohl is someone we need to protect, we can't make the same mistake again like we did with Kurt, nobody helped him, so if Dave ever hits his lowest, we must all come to his aid
I remember when the foo fighters came out I was thinking that Dave was trying to just make a quick buck off the grief so many people felt after Kurt’s death but I was absolutely wrong and by their second album I was all in
I prefer Dave's songwriting VASTLY to Kurt's. I know, no one else will admit to it (and Kurt did write an occasional absolute masterpiece, I'll never suggest otherwise), but he writes great songs that are fun to listen to, play, and rage to. Some are pretty poppy, so? Some are deep as hell, and ALL are really, REALLY good.
Seems like here everybody’s a bunch of kids who have no idea what the actual experience of that era was. If Kurt would’ve kept his shit together, I have a feeling within one or two albums. These two would’ve been collaborating in the writing process and jamming out and creating some of the best music of the last 30 years.
If I had to guess I would say he hated it lyrically, which would be my critique of almost every Foo Fighters song. and that’s why Nirvana worked so well.
I totally get the “fuck music” thing. I’ve felt like that for over 10 years now and I used to be a music nerd. My whole life was about music and now I can’t stand it.
Why does this poor man keep losing bandmates and close friends? That is unimaginably cruel.
Who all has he lost?

Could’ve been Alone+Easy Target
"..the only thing that heals me, and makes me feel good.."

Kurt sounds like a really nice guy not wanting to step on Dave’s feet like that with his song

Michael Stipe described what it potentially would’ve been.
Acoustic songs with orchestral backing, something like that.
the song is called exhausted but I think he showed kurt also "easy target"
See I always heard Dave say this nearly the same about Alone+Easy Target
What about Marigold?
Is it true that Nirvana actually played or rehearsed Marigold at least once?
- actually yes, I’m an idiot. They recorded it together and it’s on the box set
@Chad-xh8zs the recording was actually all Grohl but it was released as a Nirvana song.
Good damn he seems like such a cool dude to hang with
I’ve had a couple friends that met him and I’ve never heard a bad thing about him.

I feel so much for Dave Grohl. He's a pure hearted person
The Best Of You Helped me heal after a very hard time in my life. Thanks Dave. ❤ So much emotion in your songs.

If Kurt would’ve kept his shit together, I have a feeling within one or two albums. These two would’ve been collaborating in the writing process and jamming out and creating some of the best music of the last 30 years.
Dave looks more like Eric Clapton in the face every day, especially with those glasses
I’m currently in that stage rn in music. I’m slowly recovering, but damn. Music isn’t always fun; even if you love it.
If I had to guess I would say he hated it lyrically, which would be my critique of almost every Foo Fighters song. and that’s why Nirvana worked so well.
Kurt was so sweet
Lyrics were Kurt's strong suit. Of course Dave would listen to his input. But it was cool that Kurt was respectful of his creation.
the Song was called marigold
I totally get the “fuck music” thing. I’ve felt like that for over 10 years now and I used to be a music nerd. My whole life was about music and now I can’t stand it.
