Nirvana - Come As You Are - Kurt's Voice Change 1991-1994 (Live Mix)

[@manualofalternativemusic]

Krist said he had a very good technique to sing, he could push it as far as he wanted and he was a great vocalist. He said it might have changed because Kurt was a smoker. I'm a vocalist ,and the first thing my teacher said was "Never smoke a fucking cigarette, it destroys your voice completely". But even in 1994 his vocals were awesome, he was a real great singer

[@mariomikulic9876]

hey I wanna learn how to sing like kurt but I'm a fucking terrible singer. Like, really terrible, my voice breaks too often. From what I see, Kurts technique is basically exhaling and sounding bored/irritated but the fuck do I know, I'm not educated in that field. How do I pull it off, any tips or guidelines?

[@manualofalternativemusic]

I'm still learning ,but I used to think the same thing about myself. Everyone can sing, you just have to learn it in a healthy way. He has a physical technique,it's not just about expressing yourself, but it's very important to put emotion in the songs. Get a teacher and be patient, you'll be singing like him soon

[@mariomikulic9876]

I'd love to get a teacher but those are hard to come by where I live and even those that are here are too expensive.. It sucks tbh I'm trying my best to put my ideas into reality. I've got a few music projects that I'm working on and one of them is grunge so I want to learn to sing. I mean I don't want to be Pavarotti or Bocelli but I'd like to learn Kurts technique and sound at least decent

[@manualofalternativemusic]

I had the same problem to find a teacher near me too, so I started taking classes through Internet. There are plenty of sites and most of them are really good, and by learning through them ,you can sing much more stuff than Kurt ,or even sound like Pavarotti if you want also hahaha I was told that was possible. Don't give up on your ideas, and that's the most important thing. There's no feeling like making music off of your head into reality. Good luck bro

[@berenebairona4839]

It's good to find YOUR own voice though, like Kurt said "Wanting to be someone else is a waste of the person you are."

[@icbm777]

Although he was great even until the end, The screaming caught up with him. I read a long time ago (right before the unplugged came out) that he was going to blow his voice, and the doctors were like " stop screaming". He was definitely a great vocalist seeing how he was amazing during that unplugged session. When he died, music sort of took a dive for a long while.

[@Coolkidkarateman]

icbm777 tell that to death metal singers.

[@dustra5000]

CyanideSurprise Well they scream in the way that won't destroy your vocal cords

[@thecannaviking]

Kurt blew his voice. Thats why he had to take a break from tpuring when he caught a serious throat infection wich had been there for a while building up.

[@dantemack88]

@@Coolkidkarateman Death metal is fine, Kurt didn't have any classical training so he would scream engaging the wrong muscles

[@xxmelxx523]

All of the years were great, he will be always be missed.

[@marc8828]

I honestly don't think he had a huge voice change through these 4 years. Some concerts you could just tell he was purposefully singing it differently. That's just who he was. I don't know... But I love Kurt so much.

thanks I really appreciate you taking the time to do this for everybody. One of my favorite songs. I think one day a movie will be made a bout Cobain and Nirvana called either Come as you are, or All apologies. Kind of like Johnny Cash's Walk the Line.

[@Exile_d]

By 1993 he was nailing the controlled voice cracks that really perfected everything. You can see it especially on their unplugged performance. It's too bad his life spiraled down in that time. RIP Kurt.

It improved every year, if you ask me.

[@steverainingagain7956]

Please tell me people are joking when they say the 2nd one is the best? As much as I appreciate this man that is straight up screaming. Screaming can sound good but when its screaming for the sake of it like the 1992 version seems to be, Im sorry but doesnt do it for me.

[@Nopper23]

He was tuning it wrong right before they started the song on purpose....but tuned it back to normal again when it came to the "well i swear that i don't have a gun"

[@RONVK]

This is stupid...Anyone that has been in a band or is a singer knows why he sounds different from show to show...1. Nobody sounds exactly the same every performance unless you have a backing track playing and or you have a ton of effects in the mix of the vocal channel...2. Singers learn to sing better over time (They know how to control their voice better) 3. The early recordings that are in this video sound like Bootleg recording whereas the Unplugged Concert was remixed in a studio before it was released and the last few years kurt was alive,he used a lot of reverb,chorus and EQ on his vocal mix. He was a genius and Courtney had him murdered.If you really care about Kurt and Nirvana you will spend your time putting pressure on Law Enforcement to do something about that rather than chit chat about which year he sounded better.

1995?

[@acidrain.cobain]

1991

[@Nihlistpunk_CM]

Yeah... voice change... or maybe he started playing his music a half step down since it was more comfortable to sing in a slightly lower register. On neverminds album come as you are and lithium are both 2 steps down for the tuning, so theres that, the remainder of the album it was standard e, -endless nameless. then in utero comes in with everything 1/2 step down besides the drop d songs but regardless he made the right move going a half step down, he was losing momentum in some of his performance when it was stand tuning
