Guitar Lesson: How To Play The Man Who Sold The World Like Nirvana Did That One Time

[@Oklatucky_Guitarman]

You gotta love how Krist Novaselic acts like he’s having the time of his life when he does those bass runs. 😁

[@RyanLendt]

hahaha he looks so proud of himself you're right

[@JustinTaylor1098]

I didn’t realise I could look at your playlists, not very good with this malarkey. I had seen Come as you Are but my list is very long as I’m quite slow learning the songs and I forgot you had covered it. I enjoyed watching it again. Cheers Ryan

[@RyanLendt]

I'm excited for the three others you suggested - thanks for beefing up the nirvana playlist!

[@dimeterchevaeros8480]

I always wondered why that Bb note was in that “C major scale” thanks for explaining that! Always thought it was Kurt Cobain’s idea to replace notes of the scale just to be rebelious. Most people on youtube just teach you the songs but never the theory behind it. Great job. Although your videos are not always top quality like the famous youtubers who earn a ridiculous amount of money, they certainly help me comprehend the things I learn instead of just copying everything without understanding what I’m doing. Your channel deserves more attention imo.

[@RyanLendt]

hehe how DARE you call me pointing my phone at myself and pressing record and that's it for editing not top quality :) You've caught me, i'm a no frills kind of guy, and this trait expresses itself in all aspects of my life. I would rather have to put up 3,000 videos the way that occurs naturally to me to be able to make a living doing this than 500 in a more arduous way (for me anyway). Getting close to 900, and it's looking like 3,000 is a pretty good guess :) Thanks for your words Dimitri - cheers :)

@@RyanLendt poop a doop came thru again. What an amazing teacher!

[@goldenultra]

Da da tum da, da da tum da, then Kurt cobain near the end seems to do a little solo down the g string which is not in the Bowie version. Which was a nice deviation, it felt like he was soul searching, I think you did it at the end, it is so simple but works. Nuff said.

[@mikerandall1598]

I looked at some others teaching this song and you're the best. Good technical stuff mixed with good make me laugh stuff.

[@RyanLendt]

thanks Mike!

[@JustinTaylor1098]

Top class tutorial Ryan, love it. Bring on some more Nirvana! Cheers

[@RyanLendt]

Thanks Justin! Any suggestions?

[@mattklein562]

Great song choice for a lesson. Thanks my friend

[@RyanLendt]

Glad you liked it! Your buddy texted me and I texted back and then he or she never texted back back. I just don't want anyone thinking I'm ignoring them.

[@thethirstygoose398]

Another great tutorial. Thanks Ryan & Kermit

[@RyanLendt]

:) Kermit and I say thanks

[@russmendelson]

Ryan, you’re the man! Gd bless you

[@troywoolmaker2696]

Great lesson as always. Going to jam it this afternoon 👍

[@RyanLendt]

yeehaw! No I haven't had any cheesesteaks... as there's no bread in my diet. I'll make an exception for a really really really good one though, when I inevitably come across it...

[@BD-we4cb]

Love the style and content of your videos, really superb. Thanks

Hey Ryan. Could you do WHITE DISCUSSION by LIVE? Great song. Pretty sure I have it nailed but your take would be great!!

[@btrujt5533]

Great lesson Ryan you’re the real MVP

[@RyanLendt]

Well thanks amigo :)

[@enricofugazzi5206]

Can you do Dumb? I can play almost every song from Nirvana's MTV unplugged except for Dumb.. for some reason I never figured it out

[@RyanLendt]

great request Enrico! yes!

[@Aryanof99]

Everytime I listen to this one, I see Kurt 😌, thank you brother

[@RyanLendt]

I often wonder what his music would have evolved into had he been around to make music

[@Aryanof99]

Yeah, that would be interesting

[@jolu1621]

Thank you Ryan. That was really helpful

[@RyanLendt]

so glad JL :)

[@ChrisS-nj3ye]

Yo Yo... Just watchn' your vids!

[@jaydmhearne]

Good lesson dude...would be nice if you played through the main bars of the song either at the start or the end...would be nice to hear your version of it from start to finish...you know what I mean?! Keep up the good work!

[@RyanLendt]

Thanks so much J! I'll definitely keep that in mind and work that in more when it stays in my mind :)

[@JustinTaylor1098]

That would be very helpful to me as well. Thanks Ryan.

[@mathewpaul1888]

Very helpful thank you Ryan ill start this tomorrow its currently 3.11am so ill just watch you for now 😂

[@lighttecdark3504]

Awesome video!

[@alexanderstraniere1857]

Hey Ryan. Hope your well. Could you maybe do some songs from gigaton? Thanks so much man your the best

[@RyanLendt]

i can promise at least one in the very near future :)

[@CoopDVille-rx3hp]

Man,I'm sure you've heard Bowie's version of this song at one point or another. This is TOTALLY a Nirvana song to me. There is zero percent chance this song would have ever caught my ear any other way I've ever heard it.

[@RyanLendt]

indeed I have. I, too, prefer Nirvana's rendition

[@nizfiz3090]

"Without you" by sliverchair please!!

[@RyanLendt]

thanks for the request Niz!

[@spicylemontaco4230]

That "not me" hit had me in hysterics

[@RyanLendt]

:)

[@JustinTaylor1098]

Could you put Something in the Way ,Polly, Lithium and Come as you Are on the list please? I don’t think you’ve covered those yet. Cheers

[@RyanLendt]

Oh man you haven't seen the come as you are video! You'll enjoy that one - or at least I had a lot of fun making it. check the nirvana playlist. The others are on the list! I was just thinking about something in the way yesterday!

[@asilgg2794]

I love this guy

[@gregsamarael1753]

So cool dude. Can i request for Precious Declaration by Collective Soul. Thanks.

[@RyanLendt]

[@gregsamarael1753]

Ryan Lendt awesome! will wait for it, thanks \.../

[@tiorio9551]

Hey Ryan, do you think you could do a guitar lesson on 2112's "lessons" by Rush? Great work as always!

[@RyanLendt]

oh boy some rush... i feel daunted!

[@starchtrek7263]

[@evillittlegoat8338]

I kind of let myself waaaay down when it took me exactly 30 long seconds to fully appreciate 4:31, and only because I was singing ahead by then. :( Guess it's a slow brain kinda day. Great lesson though, thank you! (also for the Mixolydian fun fact)

[@RyanLendt]

cheers goat :)

[@richardbladehartstewart8675]

Hey Ryan I was wondering with the scale and the intro, if you were campfiring this track would you just play those cord progression or would you do something different? I just feel on a solo guitar it feels empty when doing those segments. Hope that makes sense

[@RyanLendt]

While I agree with you that it sounds empty, i'd still do it. it's pretty signature and there's no real way around it

[@richardbladehartstewart8675]

That’s cool. Thanks for taking the time to answer 👍

[@diogofonseca3161]

KKKKKKK(brazilian's laugh) AS LONG YOU WANNA KNOW THE MAN WHO SOLD THE WORLD. I simple love this channel.
