What I’m sayin! People say “Nirvana’s cool cause they didn’t try.” No, they created the image of not trying. Truthfully, these guys practiced for hours a day and yeah, it’s incredible how technically skilled of a singer Kurt was. I haven’t heard one off-key note from him, recorded or live. Who else can you think of that can sing those high notes with that much natural rasp and stay in key? Nobody. I also don’t think he had any voice training which is just amazing, the man was a phenom.
@@AndresRuiz-gs8vm get what you mean. The irony behind their words was always fascinating. They would attend interviews just to mess up with the media and laught at the perception the media had of them. However I get what the OP meant as well. They were clearly comming from a certain path, one that was never easy. They were like the dropouts, the weak anti-macho heavy kids that probably were laughed at during high school. And then all of a sudden they became big and made their weakness a power. Being weird wasn't uncool anymore.
I get why people say it's boss how he sits down during the solo, but to me that reflects his whole mood and mindset in a sad way :( lost/losing passion
well some guitars weight a lot and its such a pain in the ass, and he played the guitar for hours onstage standing up plus he had scoliosis..believe me, i myself am a guitar player and it hurts a LOT.or maybe he actually had lost his interest :/ whatever it is really sad that he's not here with us anymore...
Exactly ! It had nothing to do with him being a "boss" or the "difficulty" of the solo..which isn't difficult btw. It had everything to do with him being miserable at this point, unhappy with himself, the band, and not wanting to make music at this point. He o.d.'d couple days after this.
Uhh, Steven Tyler, Axl Rose, Ozzy Osbourne and many others still live, so don't be thinking music is dead, we still have Green Day and Iron Maiden, granted there never will be anything like Kurt, but we do have something left, oh and Too Fighters
Курт вдохновил меня улучшать своё произношение английского, да и впринципе по-немногу осваивать его Большое спасибо ему, он вдохновил не мало людей на какие-либо поступки, действия, помощь в жизненных ситуациях через свои песни
i was at that gig,and even at the one in rome when he was hospitaliazed for a drug overdose the day after.honestly he was not in good shape,very skinny and pale, i m not sure now but that day we were thinking that he sat down to rest a little, no romanticism behind. and in rome he was so weak that he was hard for him even changing guitar, a guy helped him more than once to do that. sad guys, mithology sometimes cover reality,this great musician was in a downroad spiral when he palyed in my country in 1994.
Для меня это лучшая композиция Нирваны и одно из лучших исполнений... Смотришь на Курта в этом видео и понимаешь, что через месяц после этого выступления всё будет закончено...
Despite his ill-health, he still manages to give a great performance. Sitting down for the solo is the coolest part. Requiescat In Pace, Kurt Cobain 1967-1994.
In 1990 he used to fall on the floor like a marionette with its strings cut during that specific solo. It had almost exactly the notes too even back then. Other than allegedly having a terrible case of bronchitis this night, his stomach and his "itch" was bothering him but I wonder if his confidence holding his new guitar was why he sat down. It was a custom made one of a king (at the time) Jag-Stang that he designed and just had received. It may of had the same scale neck as his jaguar and his mustang, but Fender America's factory and custom shop always did and still do make their frets big and flat. "Medium jumbo" and it will make you sloppy for real if you like smaller frets, that are "narrow tall". Not unplayable by any means and actually very desirable by many players but I believe him sitting in this and other solos may of had something to do with his new guitar which Earnie Bailey his guitar tech said kurt found problems with. It would have been very nice to see the corrections and stuff made to the Jagstang to perfect it but we all know what happened very shortly after.
Id be that way if I had a fat ugly bleached blonde hideous gold digging tri polar leg spread clown waiting for me just to torment me when I got off stage...
Your a very lucky person, I remember talking to someone online ages ago about nirvana, they didn't get a chance to see nirvana during the nevermind tour, he had tickets for a show in May of 94 and obviously missed out by a few months...so devastating
This song it just brings me sappiness! It's one of the many songs that I listen to over and over and it never gets old. I also like the early version of you know your right it just speaks volume of Kurt's true potential. He was and will always be my hero because his music speaks to me I never fully understood why he took his life but I know for a fact that we our all better to have at least experienced nirvana and hopefully we will some day have a band out there that can impact us like nirvana!
Kurt C.nesse show toca bem feliz ... inspirado ! Chega a até tocar guitarra sentado na cadeira ... Nesse show , foram duas guitarras ... Deve ter sido muitíssimo bom , esse show maravilhoso ,deste dia... Nirvana forever !!!
@@daddyrawkgames Even the most complex and polished players have a few sour notes in their solos. Sometimes it can give a better sense of emotion to the song. Not sure how that works, but I find it's often the case.
@@featheryfemme I agree, I've played lead guitar in bands most of my life. Played many sour notes myself, because if your not taking chances and being real then go listen to the studio records. I'm all about live music. Was a fan of nirvana from the bleach days...
Wow. That songs almost spiritual. 'The clue just came to you', 'awareness' and the solo sounds so strange and vital, always gives me goosebumps! Even with little over a month to live. Rock n roll history right there.
I think it's about how people are living just like pets, watching TV and doing their “hard“ work and thinking they're happy without even knowing what HAPPYNESS is.
Watching him in the late 80s and seeing him in 94. Heartbreaking how he had to cope with his problems and the problems the world gave him while he was alive. A shell of himself yet still professional and prolific til his final note. We really really ought to hold musicians to a higher standard cause this is what art and life is about. He balled the crazy energy of life up and translated it for generations to hear for hopefully the end of man kind. And the media crucified him for being himself. Fast forward and the bar is just so low for people to hit the airwaves.
... and also view every other piece of objective, corroborated, demonstrable proof that suggests he was not murdered. Coming to any kind of conclusion from one single documentary that exists to exploit people, lets get that on the table right now, is insane without considering all the over evidence. It's like people think it MUST be more complicated than suicide because that's too obvious! It's obvious because the guy went missing for days, in a different state to Courtney who was trying to detox from not just heroin but potent benzos too (4x the withdrawal sickness duration), was spotted over and over again at or near dealers places by Krist, Charles Peterson, Ian Dickson, among the dealers themselves. Do you think any of those people would cooperate with heroin dealers to keep a big secret, given that Krist is a reclusive farmer turned politician these days? You people are all the same, you see one documentary that fits with your idea he was murdered because suicide and drug addiction are very hard things to process and accept as a fan, then you act like it's the second coming of jesus. Almost nobody from nannies, to legal counsel, to psychiatrists, to coroners, to the police, to close friends, to label managers and A&R men, to sound engineers and instrument techs, to the remaining band members including Krist who grew up with the guy and Pat who is the only one he'd talk to in the In Utero tours, believes that Kurt's death is anything other than a suicide. They saw him in his last days, they saw where he was heading and just how fucked up on heroin he was. Have you noticed from 93 onwards the left side of his face is limp? It's most obvious in the Youri Lenquette shoot from February 13th 94 in Paris. Yeah the guy was a severe addict and not invincible, it's a miracle he kept alive as long as he did given how him overdosing became part of family life. He could well have died from his chest infection in Germany given the state of his body, addicts very often die from pneumonia. He could well have died all the times through 92-94 that he overdosed, going back to January of 92 in New York. He could well have *survived* the Rome overdose because of his existing tolerance to benzos, which you don't develop overnight, it takes months and months to get to that level of tolerance against that strong a drug. To have people (Krist mainly) theorize that he might have suffered brain damage - perfectly possible, he might have not been breathing properly for hours by the time he was found, he might have hit his head when he lost consciousness as there was blood coming out of his nose, plus he was in a coma for 20 hours. If it's a murder then by god there are thousands of people involved in and out of the music industry ranging from Dave Grohl to Charles Peterson, Ian Dickson, Tracy Marander, and everyone else who Kurt ever knew. At the same time, Kurt and Courtney were heroin users and had people living with them who would score for them. Do you honestly not think that some of those people might not be right in the head because they use heroin, and relay inaccurate information after the fact? It doesn't just relax you, it makes you fucking delusional and a pathological liar. Heroin is about as scummy a business as it gets. This isn't personal dude and if you've considered everything and still believe that then that's fair enough! But don't let an hour or two of one documentary fool you. Murder theorists are being exploited without even realizing it.
Thats what happens when drugs stop working and makes you feel useless, he wasn't a junkie he was a great person with a lot of issues mentally and physically
Kurt cobain like so many others really had a bold impact on my like and the way in look at music in general !!!! Thank u Kurt we luv and miss u so much
I wonder how many people in the crowd knew this song, probably only a handful, must have been WILD for anyone that knew it. I didn't hear Sappy until sometime in '95 on a bootleg CD I got from a record fair...
***** I don't think he was pagan. he was a Buddhist. I also don't think he was depressed, and if he was it was because of Courtney and wanting to move on from his current style of music, not because he wasnt a christian or something idk i dont really understand but it sounds to me that youre saying pagans and agnostics are depressed.
Why do these moronic idiots have to go on every single Nirvana video and make these outlandish, childish, ridiculous comments. Why don't you go back to the New Kids on the Block page where you belong. Leave Kurt alone stop helping Courtney spread lies.....doesn't she ever quit???!!!
Wow.. A rare performance of Sappy. Love this tune, one of my favorite of Nirvana. Great post. I’m so thankful of Kurdt introducing me to the Meat Puppets back when Unplugged was performed, such an amazing and underrated band. RIP KC
