Me too, find demos bare ideas of the songs, no unnecessary “additions “ or embellishments of reality. They’re those essential patterns, on which the song is “constructed “. Simply those basic concepts of any song, a bit raw and much sincere ❤
@@leoandersen9165 well, E is for the standard tunning of the guitar, and this song was played in D, on this demo it was recorded on E, what gives it a different sound, another side of the song, a B side.
@@leoandersen9165 before the CD and before albums could be streamed, they were formatted on cassette and vinyl. As a way to save space, albums would be split into 2 different sides. The A side would be the first part of the album, usually with the hits you would hear on the radio, and the B side of the album would contain the lesser known songs. That's why rare songs, or lesser known songs are referred to as "B sides". They're usually less successful commercially. When listening to a vinyl or cassette tape, you would insert it one way to listen to the A side, and then once completed, you would flip the vinyl or cassette tape over to hear the B side
@@Dhdhdyqha Not really... and who fucking cares anyway? This is not a punk song by any stretch. I don't think you have a solid grasp of what punk rock is. Grunge is a more nebulous term.
It was on a Cassete tape I sold it to him. He went to my school. My Uncle gave me the Cassete for Christmas last year. His brother was in Middle School Band with Kurt so he knew him a long time.
@@piai I also think is from Dave grohl come as you are was written (probally ) in 1990 - 1991 the last session with chad didn’t included come as your are tho
Hundred Yep, "as a known enemy" just makes more sense. Just like they changed it to "I'm so lonely, that's ok I shaved my head" in the demo is "I'm so lonely, that's ok I saved your head." lol Makes much more sense. Also makes the killed you and not going to cry stuff in the chorus make more sense too. lol
+WizzleThump I think he shaved his head when he lived at his buddy's house after being kicked out of his mom's. Forget his name. Anyway, they were religious, hence the "I found God" line. Says it's roughly about them in the Azerrad bio.
+WizzleThump " Cobain acknowledged that the song was possibly inspired in part by the time he spent living with his friend Jesse Reed and his born-again Christian parents. He explained to Azerrad, "I've always felt that some people should have religion in their lives [. . .] That's fine. If it's going to save someone, it's okay. And the person in ['Lithium'] needed it."[11] " there ya go punk
Most likely did throw that in this version, Thats why i LOVE listening to the demos to see what other takes on the songs they tried out and all the lyrics and riffs, But riffs are usually the same but more distorted then the original.
DUDE, I have to keep listening to the beginning. I love and also know 3 different ways to pluck the notes to Come as You Are on guitar. This is a new one: how he does a hammer-on for the very beginning. I made up one of my own after how he did one repetition at MTV Unplugged for Come as You Are. It's hard to explain, but I actually know the: original one... and now 3 ways to have fun with the tempo, but still staying on beat.
This is so awesome... The guitar... it's so beautiful. Talking about tHINGS IN LIFE people don't get to put out... If you don't think it's Kurt singing, try Do Re Mi; that's definitely Kurt. I forgot what proof I once would say just by mere words. You can see that it sounds better because it was in production and not repeated the same way over and over as done for Nevermind.
I loved this version of "Come As You Are". The Slide Show is great, depicts fun and many sides of Nirvana. They were, simply put just "Badass" and I love it.
the sound of colitis. painful melodic groans of haunting precursors and the eyes of the guy beside him say everything and i swear that i dont have a gun
Come as you are As you were As I want you to be As a friend as a friend As an known enemy Enemy X3 Come as you are As you were As I want you to be As a friend as a friend As an old enemy Enemy X2 Memory X2 When I swear that I don't have a gun No I don't have a gun X2 Come as you are As you were As I want you to be As a friend as a friend As an old enemy Enemy X3 Well I swear that I don't have a gun No I don't have a gun X2 Solo* Mee-yahh Memory X3 Well I swear that I don't have a gun No I don't have a gun X4
Them drums_^^_ them drums!!!!!!!! Gosh, krist, Dave and kurt made magic when they played.....I've honestly never heard something bad by them..the Brazil show was sad, and wild for what was going on behind the scenes. .but wasn't "bad" musically per say.....thanks for sharing this...really reaches out and gets you, gets you moving, bouncing and rocking around before you eve realize it ...I sure hope kurt found peace where ever he is..but I so wish it wasn't in the way he chose to look for it
+Justmiss jamey Yea Nirvana have never made anything bad at all im a artist my self who plays punk/grunge with my band .. I listen to nirvana becuase it makes me happy and if nirvana wouldn't playd and Kurt didn't do this music i would be lost :( . Im a sad artist if we say so becuase people have betreathed me as a Slave and as i were a demon who scared people and my parents dont care and a girl i were in love in she dumpd me and luaghed at me and then kicked me. And that made me who i am. I hope you dont mind me for telling it but your right nirvana have never ever made anything bad or worthless.!!!.!!!.!!!. RIP Kurt we all loved ya hope you feel good in heaven..
it actually is him singing, there's a demo like that of Lithium and Sappy also. He's doing it half-assed to not blow his voice for the next take. I was very confused first time I heard it.
Amazing, not sure where you got this but i love it, great vid to go with it. I can feel and hear the true grunge and hate in his voice. AMAZING the rock gods shall shine upon you
This song, along with About a girl and Radio friendly unit shifter, probably my favourite Nirvana songs. I'm probably forgetting some tho..a bit drunk. spank through,lounge act,drain you ,rape me, old age
I've got an intresting story about this demo. I saw it first when i downloaded a utorrent version of come as you are from one of those websites that provide piple with an ability to illegaly download songs for free without knowing it's not the studio version. And i really liked it! It stays on my phone for 1.5yrs noe
@@BrodyLuv2 1) this is a 10 year old comment directed at someone who likely doesn't use the platform anymore. I still use the platform though. 2) Kurt never sang the note that high, regardless of the tuning. That's some super high falsetto stuff. 3) the entire track lacks a dropout at the "high note", indicating strong mic saturation. He probably just sung to close to the mic on that note and it distorted the monitors used to amplify his voice. Regardless, he is not singing a C6.
@mojo9o I wonder if Nirvana could've worked with playing live like this... just kind of like replaying their own songs like Jazz: always improvising. Even jazz gets repetitive on the improvisitional side, but maybe they'd pull out better vibes out of their ass doing it like that... it starts with faith... like when you first learn to sing and play guitar; it's scary but it eventually comes together.
