#MTVUnplugged #Nirvana #WhereDidYouSleepLastNight
I shared this song with my Mom several years ago; she said Kurt sounded like a wounded animal crying out in pain in that last section. I couldn't agree more.
Isaac's Mom is very right, bless
@@Krampus676 weird of you to assume his mum's political stance.
My friend and I shared this song with his mom and she complained that the band weren't wearing matching outfits and that Kurt's voice was "grating" and he couldn't sing.
nirvana and beatles are the most overrated bands ever...!!!!!
@@seelenwinter6662 lol just leave weirdo
This one gives me chills every time, without fail. I get a sense that this was his goodbye to his fans. He put so much heart into it, then, at the end, that pause, and his eyes open, and it's like, a sigh of relief almost. Not to mention the stage is covered with flowers and candles, almost like a funeral. 4 and a half months later, Kurt left this world. Simply chilling.
That's what makes it even more painful to watch. To know he passes away so soon after. You know what he was going thru was in those screams. Kurt will always be best for me.
He was fine. They killed him.
When they were prepping the set he reportedly kept asking for more candles and flowers. Someone asked him- “Like at a wake?” He replied “Yes”. He knew.
"All apologies" was his goodbye song
Yes when fans screamed they wanted another song Kurt refused said I can't top that ending.
I remember watching this the night it aired with friends and we were all just sitting around vibing to the song. When he switched it up, all of us literally just got stopped dead in our tracks. Just staring at the TV speechless like… wtf just happened?? Really with him, it wasn’t just the voice, it was just his entire aura.
I think I was 13 but had the same exact reaction.
I remember experiencing it for the first time as it aired as well, and I personally believe that Kurt left part of his soul on that stage
Same man. It was like I was in shock
I had a similar experience. I watched it the night it first aired, I was by myself.
I remember clearly thinking (before this song) that they missed a gorgeous opportunity to end powerfully with All Apologies. Then Kurt said they were about to do another song written by someone else….I thought they already did the perfect closer……
…..little did I know what was about to take place. I’ll always remember how wrong I was.
I hear ya. I was sitting at our local Fred Meyer (Kroger, but in Oregon it's Fred Meyer). As my parents and I walk in, this had just started playing on the TV's in the electronics section. I stopped and watched for a few minutes. My dad noticed and said go ahead and watch we'll come get you later. About half way, dad walks up and as I got up he said: sit. Here's some chips and soda. Finish it. He knew how much I loved Nirvana and he made the rest of the family wait in the car for 2 hours just so I could listen. Thanks dad. Miss ya.
I was just 14 years old when I first listened to this, I'm 42 and those last verses still make me cry everytime. People can say whatever they want about Kurt Cobain, but not everyone is able to conjure this kind of reaction in their listeners, no matter how proficient they are
@@seelenwinter6662 you ain't done nothin
Similar - I was in college when I saw this on MTV. I felt like the world lost Einstein when Kurt passed. Tragic genius.
I am crying to the last verse right now
Everytime. For real
Me too. I was sixteen. Im 31 now. Good burned CD from my friend.
I remember forcing my whole family to put on mtv when this first aired. We only had one tv back then. By the end of the performance we were all mesmerized. Even my mom who did not care too much for Nirvana was in awe. I still remember be devastated by his death a few months after this. What a talent. RIP
That last moment where he pauses then opens his eyes and take a breath then starts singing again - I remember seeing that almost 30 years ago - and it still effects me just as much. I used to pause it at that part all the time and stare at his eyes and tear up.
You should hear what the producer of this album had to say about this. While he was putting the finishing touches on this song for the album to be made from this concert. He got the call that Kurt was dead. It rocked him really hard hearing this song with all the pain in Kurt's voice. It made it the hardest song he had to produce.
i can't even imagine what that must've felt like. as a producer myself, i'd probably break down for a moment, go home for the day, and continue the next
Where could i hear this? Is it posted anywhere/how did u find out about that?
also the producer has mentioned about the look kurt gave the crowed like he has made up his mind to leave this place
That moment at the end where he pauses-mid chorus and you look at his eyes...that is as real as it gets. Everytime I hear this I am transported back to the 90s and the explosion of amazing music, casualties included. I'm glad you got to experience this.
that fuckin sigh has haunted me since his passing i cant you just could see his pain and he was tired.
I am 49 years old. That feeling Kurt gave you? He gave that to my entire generation the first time we heard Smells Like Teen Spirit. I remember I heqrd it in my dorm Freshman year of college. I literally just walked into a stranger's dorm room and was like "TELL ME WHO THIS IS." It tapped into a simmering pressure and frustration and anger I never knew was even there. You have a new subscriber, Watching you react, gave me the chills. RIP Kurt, RIP Chris, RIP Layne. Thank you for everything.
I am 51yr and so glad that I saw Nirvana (Kansas City, Oct '93). I'm English and was doing a 4 month exchange from my Uni here with Uni of Kansas, Lawrence (apparently Kurt was in Lawrence meeting William Burrough earlier that day or the day before). That's one good thing about being our age - saying we were there for something extraordinary.
Extraordinary is the almost the meaning (((JustworkS)))
Is a meaningful insightful reviews for the comments 🙂
That initial feeling hearing SLTS the first time it debuted was almost a life defining moment. Crazy times it was and I'm glad I got to experience it first hand.
Not me.that song was loved by the preps because mtv told them too.Lounge Act made me moved by them
Only feeling he gave me was boredom, Nirvana was boring, stupid lyrics and repetitive songs, I give Kurt the fact he had a nice and unusual voice but as a band Nirvana was trash, and don't throw me the "Smells like teen spirit card" , never had any business even being in a top 10 rock chart imo
Kurt, Layne, Chris, and Scott. Beautiful voices shrouding cries for help. In the end, no one could save them.
Don't forget Eddie
And Chester 😢
@@birdsarerathercool Eddie is still alive, you missed the point of the comment
@@Tensen01 yeah your right, I think it was like 2:00 AM when I wrote that, wasn't thinking straight, thanks for the correction man
Eddie and Andy Shannon
I lost my mom 3 years ago. She was 83 and believe it or not she loved this song. The whole CD actually. She said growing up during The Great Depression like she did one of her favorite memories was of her grandma singing this song. Whenever I took her to a doctor's appointment, out to dinner, or shopping she insisted on bringing 2 things, this CD and her favorite Johnny Cash CD.
Oh I've been waiting for this, one of the best shows of Kurt's voice
Personally I think 'Pennyroyal Tea' is the most beautiful performance on this set. Kurt on his own, he really drags you into a trance. It's surreal. 👌
The meat puppets were great too man
The whole show is fukin unstoppable
@@yduronerom6380 absolutely. But I remember when I first seen it and the feeling I got when I seen Cobain up on his own doing Pennyroyal Tea, it was life changing, so beautiful
All these years later, I still get the chills. "Run over by a bus" is accurate. That little breath before the last "Night through" is everything.
One of the best live performances of all time. The pain in Kurt's voice is palpable and heartbreaking. He maybe gone but his spirit will live on forever. ❤🙏😪
no... he shot himself, because he saw, that he was the most untalented grunge singer at that time and the only chance to be famous in future was his suizid...
That's bullshit.
For those of us who were teens in the 90's, we never had a clue the Unplugged performances would be considered as important to music culture decades later. We grew up on the live performances on late night talk shows and SNL, so there was never any thought given to it besides watching a mini-concert.
These days we have the tiny desk concerts
Those eyes, I swear you can see his soul. I still remember watching this when it first aired. Unplugged is the best thing MTV ever did. Wish they’d get back to that
I listened to this song after a 16 year relationship ended with infidelity and betrayal. "My girl My girl Don't lie to me. Tell me where did you sleep last night?" expressed exactly how I felt. The raw emotion and pain that Kurt channeled in this song resonated with my shredded heart and the empty hole "My Girl" left in my chest. Great reaction Aileen!
I love how Kurt makes this song his own. The original is by Lead Belly and was released 1939.
I was in high school and had my first car when their album Nevermind came out. Driving around with that cassette full volume was something else. Good memories. RIP Kurt.
Owning a nirvana cassette is epic! I’m jealous
Mark Lanegan has a pretty good cover of it as well. Worth checking out.
The orginal was called In The Pines by Roscoe Holcomb. Who wrote the lyrics In The Pines, In The Pines where the sun don’t shine. Roscoe wrote the song on the banjo then LedBelly made it the cover/version and added lyrics to it make it Where did you sleep. Lots of these old folk songs are very dark and depressing and are heavily influenced by murder ballads of the mountains
It wasn’t even the lead belly’s either, it was a folk song that lead belly made into a song
This performance was nearly 30 years ago. The show was in 1993 but was not aired till after he died. To find out later how ill he was going into this performance and seeing what he did is sad and incredible all at the same time.
At last, a great reaction video. No over the top fake wild reactions from people who you know will never actually listen to the stuff on their own. You can tell that this is totally genuine. I am glad that I cam across your channel. I have subscribed.
I appreciate that ❤️
The look Curt gives in that last "the whole night through) is so eerie and still gives me chills when I see it. I saw this when it came out when I was 12/13 years old.... such an amazing performance
The whole unplugged session is amazing. Raw and powerful. I still remember the place I‘ve been when the news about Kurt‘s death broke.😢
Same. Also that I spent the morning hoping it was one of those "[insert celebrity name] died!" rumors that occasionally went around and turned out not to be true. Then I watched the news and my heart sank.
It's that deep breath at the end that gets me. From the alternate camera angle taken from his side you can see he was pushing lots of air. That breath was needed because he was leaving it ALL out there and putting so much emotion into it. This performance is iconic
Never apologise we love your passion 🙏🏻 Kurt,Layne,Chris, all left there souls on these stages for us they will all be remembered 🙏🏻
Let's not forget Scott. What an amazing time for music
HAHAHAHA being a Nirvana fan since their inception (I'm old) and knowing every song and every word. NOW, watching your reaction and knowing what is coming hahahahahaha. THIS is what music is all about. I can here the 'agony' in Kurt's voice yet SEE it on your face while he is singing. I LOVE IT!! Your video was amazing, ma'am. WELL DONE!!
Funny, I'm 42. Every single reaction video to this song is exactly the same. They all vibe with the song and when the end comes they don't see it coming and their faces cringe with that "where did or is this coming from."
Sometimes I miss this authentic talent...........like at this moment. Thank you for your fine reaction.
That whole last verse is EVERYTHING. This song has got to be 100 years old. Leadbelly did it originally, and it's creepy AF. This version was so powerful. Seeing these guys happening in realtime was amazing, and talking about those remember where you were moments, I remember the day I learned of his death. A few of us were out driving around and we heard it on the radio. It was an intense moment. Thanks for checking this out!
So old it cannot be under copyright laws
I was at work on my lunch break heard it on the radio I'll never ever forget that
@@hankmullins3090 it was crazy heavy. I can absolutely still remember it. How he had been missing for a few days and all that- I think I remember more about that than my senior year, which was when it happened.
Actually Roscoe Holcomb wrote this song on the banjo in the 1920s in the Appalachian Mountains. The original was called In The Pines which was inspired by Murder Ballads that were common in the mountains. Then LedBelly covered it and changed it a little to Where did you sleep last night
Just turned 47, and this man's passing hit me right in the gut. I had a smart cousin who snuck me into a club in Jacksonville, FL to see Nirvana right after Bleach released. They were basically still nobody, but Bleach remains one of my favorite albums of all time.
I've heard this version about 250 times, and his change at the end still gives me chills every time. The song, his voice, his pain, his soon to be death. You feel it all through him.
Literally every time I hear that last section I get insane goosebumps. Totally agree that it’s the most emotive piece of vocal work I’ve ever heard on anything. Kurt was an incredible lead and this performance was without doubt his best! 🙌
Brings a tear to my eye every time. That look up and breath before the last line... 😭
That moment where he opens his eyes before the last note of the song gives me chills, and sad emotions everytime
You made me cry. Kurt died like a month before I graduated high school, and I am so happy that you decided to check this one out. Some people just leave a hole that never gets filled again.
I watched this concert live back when MTV still played music. My mom was in her 60s then and she was blown away by how good it was.
I saw Nirvana live when I was in highschool . . 2 months later Kurt was gone.. the WORLD literally mourned..A 15$ dollar ticket left a million dollar memory. .
When I was a 90s club rat in Portland, Nirvana was an up and coming band who came through regularly...saw them many, many times in tiny venues. Man, I miss those days. Most of those clubs are gone, now.
Portland Oregon!!!
I always enjoy your reaction. And I'm so glad that you reacted to this specific song. I litterally cry everytime I hear the last part, it's so depressing and sad but, at the sime time, beautiful. And when you see Kurt, with the cigarette, signing autographs, you can see how rare he was. A pure soul. He was special. Can't wait for another reaction.
One of the most haunting performances of all time. Especially when you consider that, mere months later, Kurt was gone. He was in his own league when it came to putting his pain into his art
What an amazing reaction. Watching you get emotional on the last verse hit me in my feels.
I've heard that song countless times over the decades, and it never loses its power, it's still just as impactful as it was thirty years ago. Seeing you hear it brought tears to my eyes 🙂
I love and missed this band as a whole so much will never be duplicated long live Kurt
Was so excited to see your reaction to this and girl you did not disappoint lol! The funny thing about this performance was that the crowd was so quiet he was embarrassed because he thought they hated it when in reality they were dumbstruck like we all are at this. Absolutely epic!
I feel so incredibly fortunate to have grown up in the era when Nirvana and all of the other grunge bands exploded onto the scene. I was 13 when I first heard Teen Spirit in 1991, and it was a life altering musical experience for me. I'll be 45 this August, and they are still my favorite band of all time. If you would like to react to other live performances, I highly recommend Drain You live from the the Paramount and the first time Teen Spirit was played on Saturday Night Live. As a bonus, I would recommend looking up the short acoustic clips that Kurt's daughter, Frances Bean, has uploaded. It's haunting how much she resembles him in both appearance and musical aptitude. It's a bit haunting.
Timeless performance and concert. The entire setlist is a unique arrangement of originals and covers. This one has origins to late 1800s.
I always loved the fact that Nirvana was given a spotlight and they chose to use it to shine light on lesser known bands they enjoyed (Meat Puppets, e.g.) and musicians they loved and/or were inspired by (Bowie, Leadbelly, etc). It really shows the lack of ego those guys had.
Kurt had a very unique voice, full of grit and he's got that natural yodel to his voice. His voice was the kind of voice you could only really get from smoking a bunch of cigarettes a day and being full of anguish. Kind of like Brian from AC/DC. When he opens his eyes after the scream you can see so much pain in his eyes and that moment there made history and became known as the moment we could see into his soul.
My music teacher showed me this in 7th grade. The breath he takes. Everything about this is iconic. One of the greatest live performances ever
Awww, don't cry, you're making me cry!!! Lol but yes, I was 14 when he died and it I felt like I lost a family member. It was so hard. He still inspires me in ways even today musically. 🖤🦋
I was 14 years old in 1994 when he passed away. My older brother would take me to shows and stuff and I remember he was going to see Nirvana and asked me if I wanted to go and I said nah, I don't feel like it right now, I'll catch them next time. I still remember where I was standing in my house when we had the conversation. If only I knew I wouldn't have another chance. 💜
One of my favorite live performances by them! The haunting look in his eyes when he pauses at the end is about as real and raw as it gets!
Now, if you liked this (which you obviously did), then please, for the love of God, do the legendary live performance of LOVE HATE LOVE by Alice in Chains. It's Layne Staley in his prime: raw, emotional and the epitome of grunge. His vocal range in that is insane.
I remember when Nirvana Unplugged aired on MTV. A group of friends and I all gathered to watch it. Two things I remember: 1) We became aware that they weren't playing the hits about halfway through the show (most bands would perform acoustic versions of their hits and then a couple covers on Unplugged.) and 2) When it was over, we were aware, in the moment, that what we had just seen was historic (We didn't say that, we were college kids. We probably said something along the lines of "Holy shit, dude. What the fuck?"). It's the most amazing thing I have ever seen on TV. Great reaction
After spilling out that Howl, that last gasp of air he takes before the end, opening his eyes wide to prepare for his final, solemn scream.... it STILL brings me to tears the same way it did back then.
I was maybe 13 or so, I watched this as MTV aired it with my older sister. I remember both of us sitting gobsmacked at the end, I finally said to her. "If you wanna see them, do so next time they are in town." I didn't think I'd be so correct or dislike my gut being so spot on. This song to this day is a staple on my playlists. Every time it plays, I still get goosebumps and add to it now the level of introspection that follows.
No song was more haunting than Polly. It was beyond powerful. Kurt Cobain will always be missed.
I was 11yrs old when Kurt passed and a huge Nirvana fan, this whole Unplugged performance was Phenomenal! His voice and passion was on another level. Nirvana was legendary and forever will be loved by generations to come 🤘🏼
If you notice the chandelier ,candles and the white lily flowers on the stage set up like a funeral. The whole performance is absolutely bone chilling
the most honest interpretation of Leadbelly's country/blues classic I've ever heard..............
I just found your channel and the way you react to some of these songs and artists reminds me how powerful music is and how it can take you from one place, one emotion, to another. Love it, really appreciate you👍🤗 Queen's liveaid performance was like that, the crowd, the performance, amazing...
"Something in the Way" is the best song and the most Cobain from this concert
There is sooo much of Nirvana out there, please continue to check them out. To me they are legends, just regular people with absolute zero diva-minds. The first time that I remeber crying in my life was that awful day when the news came that Kurt was dead, I was 10 years old.
That look in his eyes on the last chorus, it's like he had a moment of utter clarity then was lost again. These unplugged shows were something else, don't think i've seen a bad one, but the Nirvana and AiC ones are the best, very very closely followed by Pearl Jam's. There's some brilliant moments in some of the others as well!
You should def check out some more Nirvana like "Sliver", "Come As You Are", "Lithium", "Drain You", "Heart Shaped Box"...
You should also check out Alice In Chains "Love, Hate, Love" (Live at The Moore) to see just how powerful Layne's voice truly was live back before he got too deep - also check out a group he sang for, formed in rehab with some other grunge artists called Mad Season - esp "River Of Deceit" and "Wake Up".
They had such a massive impact on the music industry. They broke through with their alternative rock sound, redefined the genre, and inspired countless bands. Their success challenged industry norms and gave a voice to a disillusioned generation. Their influence continues to shape music today. My favorite band of all time personally. Kurt for me.. is the GOAT. RIP Legend
This goes to show that not every note has to be perfect. If you can bare your soul through your voice like he did it makes it incredible
As soon as he pauses to catch his breath just the look in his eyes tho like on my gosh wow. I wonder what was he glaring, looking, staring, glancing, checking at.
React to the whole entire live set gig at the MTV NYC unplugged. 🤘🏼🎸😏😎🤪😜
This song cuts deep. Amazing reaction.
The original is so old and so many artists rendered this song. Words changed through the years but the melody lives on. The original artist for the melody was definitely ahead of his time . RIP both artist
Kurt’s vocals in this song was amazing. That raspy scream was something else. This was the first time for me as well listening to this and my mind was blown. I’ve never heard Kurt do that before in any of his other songs
I’m glad you kept watching him off stage interacting and signing autographs. 4 months I believe before he passed
that voice.. no auto tune, no gimmicks, just raw Kurt, it's amazing.
I’m sorry I missed your last couple of videos, but I’m so glad to see you again, and I couldn’t have come back to see you with a better choice on your docket… By far one of my favorite Nirvana songs✅💯💯💯🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫵🏻👍🏻👍🏻✌🏻
If you loved that ...then you'll love this ... Chris Cornell - "Nothing Compares 2 U" live ... it's ... amazing.. Happy thanksgiving
That pause at the end.....and the most famous *sigh* in music history....that moment, we saw on tv (mtv re-ran this concert a lot as soon as it existed), but we saw that sigh when he was alive, and then 4 months later we saw it many more tines after he had passed/had died, and we were like ‘whoooa....fuuuck”, it was something....they re-ran these vids for YEARS. He was a hell of a dude....in that sigh u can see his lost-ness....amazing.
Aileen this song is everything! Love your reviews!
The excruciating pain of betrayal and infidelity expressed in an outcry of lyrics. A very heartfelt performance.
I'm from Aberdeen, I have to love nirvana. Another grunge band out of Seattle you should do is a band called the gits and the song you should do by them is called second skin
I had heard in a documentary that he had just went through a heroin detox and was really in his feelings when he sang this song. He was on Suboxone at the time to keep the detox away but he was still going through it. I'm so happy you felt what we all felt from Kurt. He was a masterpiece as an artist.
Your reaction and comments were the best I've ever seen, this masterpiece of performance deserved exactly that, you truly honored Nirvana an Kurt's memory, thank you a lot
I was a teenager in high school when Nevermind was released. I remember the day a friend brought the cassette to school. After class he told a bunch of us we needed to hear it. We all gathered near the school's portable tape recorder, he pressed play, and life has never been the same. Even through that tinny speaker, when the first bars of Smells Like Teen Spirit washed over us we were completely bowled over, and it was like a shroud was lifted to expose a new world. There was before Nirvana, and After Nirvana. I devoured every Nirvana album and song after that. I also remember the moment a friend came into my college dorm room and told me Kurt was found dead by suicide. A gut punch I've yet to recover fully from. Love you Kurt.
You can't fool me with those horny (pun intended) earphones, I know a true music fan when I see one. This was one of the most genuine and emotional reactions to this song on the entire CZcams. We all have our own tastes, but some songs and performances are undisputed pieces of art respectively of your favourite genres, and this is one of them. Thank you and keep sharing your emotions with the world, because from what I can tell as a singer, songwriter, musician, and producer myself, they are actually real. And that inspires not only those hearing these songs for the first time but also those like me, who see that the music they had grown up to is not forgotten and is as powerful as it was when it was released.
Thr song dates back to the 1800s but was first recorded in 1926 by a banjo player named Dock Walsh. Bill Monroe recorded it in 1941, and Lead Belly in 1944. Nirvana covered this on their 1993 Unplugged In New York album.
"Feels so personal"
"It's so raw"
"I'm in a trance"
That's the power of folk and the blues, girl 🎵
Some people watch reaction videos to hear the person stop the song every five seconds and give their opinion but I prefer to watch a genuine reaction to someone listening to a song that I love. You stopped at the right times not to talk but to share an actual real reaction. Im subscribing for that reason.
Nirvana Unplugged was the best of the MTV Unplugged series in my view . I still play the cd today .
He gave everything on that section of the song. Obviously held nothing back. It always tends to blow people away, and I can only imagine how in awe that audience was.
It "smacked you in the face" because it was authentic. Kurt was suffering from a lot of pain and anguish.... And just like he said, this was his last performance. You sounded like a wounded animal before it died which is why it's so gut-wrenching... This last performance was him saying goodbye to the world and to his fans before he committed suicide. R.I.P.
I watched this when it aired live on MTV. I knew what he was doing, what he was expressing, and what he was saying, he told the world what he was going to do through music. No one realized..they just thought it was an exceptional cover
It's heartbreaking.. this was his very last song.
Knowing this, go back and listen to it. It'll hit you even harder and different.
kurt was a master at his craft one of my favs top 10 list for sure
I’ve seen this whole unplugged show many many times , it’s brilliant ! And also seen few reaction vids to this song , yours is the best by far ! Good stuff
Yes this a masterpiece, it is considered but some people as the best live performance in music History...
"My girl, my girl, don't lie to me / tell me where did you sleep last night?"
My dad owned this CD of MTV Live or whatever it was called and mind this was a few months before.
I did shed tears listening to it.
Did you know he plays left handed on his guitars. Thanks for playing Nirvana. I saw them back in 92 in L.A. one the best shows I’ve ever seen and experience.
Thank you for caring on the old school rock, it gives us old school rockers some hope that the past won't be overlooked!
I remember seeing this for the first time in 1994 as a 12 year old and it giving me goosebumps. Seeing your reaction took me back to that time. Thank you! Love the channel!
Not many people know this but, this song is actually a cover of a mid 19th century ballad. It was first recorded on vinyl in 1940 by Leadbelly (or 1941, I don't remember exactly). The 40's version is very different from the Nirvana cover but I suggest you listen to it!! Great reaction as alway!!
Much love and hugs from an italian fan
czcams.com/video/PsfcUZBMSSg/video.html
Here's the '40 version
I watched this on MTV unplugged years ago and watching this now really makes me feel like I was there and it's such a great feeling.😊
It left you speechless.
Back in 1993, it left us Nirvana fans speechless.
Now you now how I've felt for 30 years.
Check out 'Pennyroyal Tea' from the same event.
Well, I cried the first time I heard and saw this, and you made me do that again. Thank you for that reaction! ❤
I was lucky and saw Nirvana @ the Armory in Philly the November before he passed. They had like 5 opening bands (Kurt always supporting lesser known bands), but they rocked. After the 100s of concerts I've been too so far Nirvana is top 3.
I listen to a lot of Nirvana when living on the streets, this one here hits home for me.
Watched this when it was first broadcast back in the day. Have the CD after all these years, listen to it every couple of months or so. The whole session was just soo damn good.
There are two "Foo Fighters" on that stage. Obviously Dave Grohl on drums, but also Pat Smear on guitar (red white and blue guitar)
This is Nirvana's version of " In the pines" by delta blues artist Lead Belly. This song is over 60 or 70 years old. Kurt Cobain said that Lead Belly is one of his favorite artists.
The best live concert off all time, the best band of all time, the best singer and songwriter of all time.
RIP Kurt ❤ You should be here! Damn life is unfair
They need to bring back MTV unplugged....or just music in general on that channel
