Nirvana - The Man Who Sold The World | Singer Reacts & Musician Analysis (MTV Unplugged)

[@vincentvancraig]

“Where did u sleep last night” from this show, nirvana unplugged

[@Naheaal]

My left ear appreciated this moment

[@stevePsutton]

Dave said that he had to really keep his drum strokes light by concious effort and was also using drum "Rods", which are bound bunches of thin wooden dowls that can give a much softer sound. Somewhere between sticks and brushes. Dava is also visibly holding back on the arm action to reduce it even more. Very tricky to do for a whole song as the volume tends t keep creeping up as you play. It's actually more difficult to play softly than it is to be loud. It takes real skill to withold power and bring it it when needed

[@antivanti]

This entire show is great. I like how they were all like "We're not going to play ANY of our hits... let's do covers of songs we like instead" If you haven't seen the performance of Leadbelly's "Where did you sleep last night?" from this show yet you absolutely HAVE to 💔

[@jumperking368]

David Bowie was 19 when he wrote this. Bowie also did a version with Lulu where he sang backing vocals and played the sax. The B side of that record was another Bowie song called Watch That Man.

[@dinopharis2876]

Yeah there was always sadness in his voice even though he didn't write it the part of the song where it said I must have died alone was kind of chilling.

[@jamiemacdonald436]

Definitely listen to the original too. This cover did stay very true to the original. I love both versions.

[@vincentvancraig]

Exactly 30 years ago, December, Christmas time 1993, this show hit MTV rotation so hard…it was recorded in early November 1993, & i don’t remember when editing & post production on all the footage was completely put together & when it first aired but I know it was in HEAVY rotation on Mtv (the entire show, or every song’s video was played again & again that December), ….it was like a new nirvana album had dropped, so many new songs….it was my senior year of high school & partly because of this show, that era is burned into my brain forever…this really was the peak of the 90’s…i dont care what anyone says, but as far as rock was concerned, Kurt would be dead 4 months later & it was all downhill from here….but this…..his show is a historical gem of a moment frozen in time in all its glory, people who were lukewarm on nirvana saw the light this show was so iconic, thee zeitgeist, like the 90’s version of the summer of 1967……again, the peak…..every single song from this show is reaction worthy, epic af…i cant remember if you’ve done “where did u sleep last night”, Kurt’s genius swan song, I’ll have to check. Anyway, great reaction as always.

[@Bekka_Noyb]

such an amazing & eerie concert! ♥

THE ALLMAN BROTHERS - In Memory of Elizabeth Reed ( At Fillmore East, 1971 ) | FIRST TIME REACTION

[@ericanderson8886]

Love this one and the original, just a great song.

[@youtoo2233]

Chills when the cello comes in

[@pimpinpoker]

Millie... Your reactions are awesome and very genuine, keep up the good work!!!

[@SPOOKY.698]

Got to see them in concert It was awesome

[@WendyDarling1974]

This is a great, GREAT cover and I love Nirvana*, but credit for the riff, bass and genius melody is Bowie and his original crew. * In fact I listened to Nirvana Unplugged for probably the 150th time yesterday…

[@jimschlatman215]

Nirvana did a great job on this song, Kurt really made it his own! But you should also check out David Bowie's original, both amazing versions, it's just a great song!

[@sumonjamal1653]

Krist Novoselic (bass) of Nirvana never got enough credit for his talent in the band... After Nirvana ended in 1994, he did attempt musical projects like Sweet 75... Eyes Adrift ... Neither made a commercial impact, unfortunately. Novoselic did play bass & Accordion on a Foo Fighters album ('Wasting light' in 2011) on the track "I should have known"... Novoselic and Dave Grohl have stayed friends since Nirvana's end and the 2nd guitarist Pat Smear (who did the 'MTV Unplugged' set) rejoined Foo Fighters around 2007 (Smear did the first tour in 1995 and the 2nd album 'The color and the shape' in 1997 before leaving the band). David Bowie was very happy & flattered that this obscure song he had written became a classic covered by Nirvana.

[@krisfrederick5001]

“I was simply blown away when I found that Kurt Cobain liked my work, and have always wanted to talk to him about his reasons for covering ‘The Man Who Sold the World’” and that it was a good straight forward rendition and sounded somehow very honest. It would have been nice to have worked with him, but just talking with him would have been real cool.” -David Bowie P.S. Kurt does actually technically screw up the solo by one fret as he prophesized, but it just sounds cooler.

[@davidellis5141]

Nirvana meet Bowie = Heaven !

[@CarlosjavierDespo-jp4cg]

Aguante Nirvana🎉🎵🥁🎸❤️ 🇺🇸🇬🇧

[@vincentvancraig]

Yeah…that major scale bass line walk up …it was unusual for nirvana but just made perfect sense & worked so dam well.

[@gheaananda1047]

Curt Cobain my favorit since 1998

[@BasedBoosted88]

I discovered this channel from the Queen - Live Aid performance. Something about her energy made me click subscribe and here I am, looking at more reactions 😊

[@bite28]

I can't believe how underrated they are. They deserve way more recognition. One request. React to Dark by October Ends 😍

[@RCTPatriot75]

Nirvana underrated? Alice In Chains is underrated, in fact having been a teenager of this time, Nirvana was probably my least favorite.

[@IMWeblike]

I'm a fan of Nirvana and this song and performance are up there with my favorites, but it is too common place for reactors. Millie needs to be bold and break some new ground on her own and explore some of the music that is still undiscovered by reactors. Just a few suggestions from the late 80s to early 90s era that I think Millie would like... 10,000 Maniacs (Natalie Merchant), many songs to choose from, Blues Traveler, many songs to choose from, Mazzy Star, kinda a one hit wonder, Fade Into You...

[@justitia257]

Beautiful acoustic version.

[@ardalla535]

Got to do a Tina S reaction. Listen to her rendition of Moonlight Sonata -- blows everyone away. She has millions of views. She's beyond amazing. Also, no one does a reaction to Lisa Gerard of Dead Can Dance. I don't know why. Try ["Lisa Gerrard & Pieter Bourke "Sacrifice"]. You will not believe what you hear.

[@bayareathrasher666]

Cobain and Bowie in post mortem harmony, RIP

[@benhendricks570]

I love your reaction Millie

[@nature_nd]

Great reaction!!!

[@CardboardCollector22]

3:54 Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do

[@terryjagers2280]

David Grohl before Foo Fighters was on drums

[@manwithumbrella]

LOL ... why are you stating the obvious and something that everyone reading your words already knows? Do you think you're "educating" anyone? Get a grip, son.

[@Nolimitcam._]

@@manwithumbrellasum ppl still don’t know that I guess lol

[@79tazman]

This whole show is totally awesome when this came out on CD I had to get it but I was a big Kurt Cobain/Nirvana fan back in the early 90's

[@IamZoneStalkersalt]

Though it isn't related, if you haven't listened to it already you should check out Kamelot. The song in the link is Elizabeth 1, 2, and 3 live. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5TZeXWClsmUrq8

[@jessestonebarger1796]

Just curious but what country are you from? I like the accent. Love the videos.

[@biggie9817]

Millie, I love your reaction videos, but I want to point out your microphone is stereo and your voice is only coming in only on the left channel. Also when you comment during the performance, it lowers the sound on the video. Just wanted to let you know.

[@Warren-w7j]

Hi Millie, please react to the warning 21st century blood off their first album that really young in this one, but you'll be impressed by the level of the video. Thanks! For teenagers, it's a big message

[@Nolimitcam._]

She needs to react to all their stuff 😂

[@justitia257]

Let me know what you think

[@franksullivan1873]

So sad….poor Kurt.Such a talented young man to die so soon.

[@thomasbarr5940]

Lulu and Bowie version is soooooo goooood🎉

[@aldochristian3913]

“Where did u sleep last night”

[@humbertocastro8088]

Very nice and great tunes

[@bendancar]

Nice one! You should react to David Bowie's version from "Saturday Night Live" from 1979. Epic performance.

[@eziyac393]

its a david bowie masterpiece, another

[@abnerbugado]

Hello, I'm your fan who lives in Brazil, I wanted to suggest a Brazilian rock band called "Charlie Brown Jr." react to the song "zoio de lula" or the song "não deixe o mar te engolir". It's a very good band, it's worth just listening to them. greetings from Brazil!💛💚💙

[@JuanHernandez-qi2ck]

Saludos desde Nicaragua ❤

[@christopherschafer7675]

Please consider checking out the Margot Cotten cover of this cover. Three minutes of your own time well spent. You can thank me later. Oh, and your the only music reactor I pay attention to anymore!

[@daviddecobert8248]

Un des meilleurs hommages à David Bowie.

[@robcarr8505]

Have you listened to the song "broken" by Seether and Amy Lee?

[@ВаняЯрощук-э7х]

[@dolfin98]

A good copy of David Bowie’s hit and almost as good

[@Joulis]

Keep the great work Millie, incredible video

[@DarraghC]

Nice reaction, you should listen to Bowies original version :)

[@jacklee5807]

Nah, not really, the Nirvana version is way better, and I say that as someone who loves David Bowie

[@Steve-nf1tg]

Great Bowie cover!, please review The Warning if possible. Subscribed

[@ninja_tony]

Something’s wrong with the audio on this video, it’s only coming out of the left channel in sections.

[@geordiejohnston9815]

She does know. Says so at the very beginning. My favourite version of it was by Lulu.👍
