[@monicajean37]

The lyrics, "Come doused in mud, soaked in bleach" were taken from a campaign in Seattle that encouraged heroin users to soak their needles in bleach after injecting to reduce the risk of spreading HIV. The phrase for the campaign was actually "If doused in mud, soak in bleach."

[@ianh6845]

Wow, that is crazy.

[@danielleblais3658]

That's awesome to know. Terrible campaign slogan but still thanks for sharing that. I was always a Soundgarden guy

[@shiningwizard9017]

I always took it as a reference to the Bleach album, but this clears it up.

[@bambinorg045]

I learned something today. 👍

[@TheRubyG]

Wow, thanks for the info...never knew that 😉👌

[@JJ_957]

Check out "You Know You're Right", it's one of the last songs the band recorded before Kurt's death in April '94

[@cameronrobertson7197]

"You Know You're Right" was there last recording session

[@pugshorty9852]

That is a most excellent suggestion.

[@copaxan]

it IS the last recorded song

[@metaphoria3]

The last vox at Robert lang down st in Richmond beach I drop by frequently from my honeymoon in Edmonds we recorded our unreleased debut album there Riparadise Kurt

[@markmcdonnell]

Cobain was full of contradictions in his lyrics. He was very good at that. Consider "afraid of never knowing fear" from their song "Lounge Act " is a good example of that.

[@neilpavao7348]

Lounge act is my favorite song ever, not just by them, in general

[@eldonedecoburza]

Kurt was a genius on using oxymorons and homonyms, all of his songs are full of those tipes of rhetorical devices, on nevermind, al most every song have those.

[@macgibbon]

Memoria is latin, can basically translate it as memory. Back when I was a kid I just thought he said memory and added an 'ah' on there for effect

[@elenamorales812]

I thought the same... I know Spanish, memoria is also Spanish for memory and it never occurred to me that it can be one word.🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️

[@metaphoria3]

Whats metaphoria mean then? (asking for a friend 😅)

[@dirkdiggler6316]

This is one of my favorite 90’s songs; some of its nostalgia but it was a great track. He was so deceptively brilliant as a writer.

[@TimmiejaneCarter]

I believe the whole song is about heroine. The friend is heroine.

[@four4twenty]

[@metaphoria3]

The chorus might be a premonition

[@ayeewtasko2601]

Nirvana - You Know You're Right!!

[@ayeewtasko2601]

Kurt recorded this song 2 weeks before he killed himself. It's essentially a suicide letter.

[@crownmithrix]

The “You Know You’re Right” session was in January.

[@metaphoria3]

Dave recorded his first foo fighters album there and we recorded our debut album we haven’t rehearsed yet I’m in edmonds

[@metaphoria3]

@@crownmithrixhe mayve tracked final vox later

[@totalprocall6894]

It simply comes over as a song about the pressure to conform...beautifully concise to be honest too.

[@Themartinezjoeshow]

I still a huge fan of nirvana. Saw them in Massachusetts 6 months before he died. Have a pic and my ticket framed in my house. They did MTV unplugged with some great covers . Where did you sleep last night. That's a leadbelly cover is Amazing with a haunting stare at the end of the song. Have to check it out . Great reaction thanks so much.

[@Blizzard0fHope]

his vocals in that song were spectacular too. . that whole night was amazing

[@francovicidomini6725]

How was see Nirvana live?

[@alanmena9837]

I think you alluded to it near the end Vin, but Kurt does not get enough credit as a vocalist. His vocals touch my soul. They can be raw, aggressive, dirty, but also vulnerable and melodic. He had a fantastic sense of melody and tone and was more concerned with conveying specific emotions. He is often compared to John Lennon in that facet.

[@cremetangerine82]

If you want to hear bad singing, check out Puddle of Mudd’s cover of “About a Girl”. It’s horrible! kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYXMmpWYaJmDrdE

[@milesparker557]

I've only watched 2 of your videos but I really like how you explain these songs. You have really interesting perspectives. I wish there were more youtubers like you guys

[@animalwillopus79]

When Kurt sings "I dont gave a gun", i think he's saying he'll accept and will not hurt anyone who is being themselves. Just my take on it. More Nirvana songs please: Lithium, Rape Me, All Apologies.

[@metaphoria3]

I think it could also be telling us from beyond he didn’t kill himself

[@Tuesdays_Gone]

The backdrop to my 20s. Love Nirvana!

[@jamiedavis5549]

Don’t tell me you haven’t heard Come As You Are.

[@antondzajajurca7797]

I truly doubt they heard any music at all, but they are improving :)

[@El_Bartto]

Sori maybe haven't

[@jesusguerra1093]

Exactly hard to believe they havent heard this song or any other nirvana song, i mean the band was everywhere in the 90's every radio station, around the world. Respect to Kurt, one thing people needs to be clear: Kurt never took his lyrics too seriously those were written in the last moment before going to the studio, for him the music and melody was the most important thing.

[@dougmott8926]

Kinda hard to believe

[@dougmott8926]

As soon as they start misinterpreting the lyrics i get bored

[@acy2004]

Another great reaction guys 👏🏼🙌🏼👍🏼👋🏼💜🇨🇦

Guitar riff was taken from Killing Joke's song 80s

[@ryankm4056]

one of the best nirvana songs. i can listen to this song over and over.

[@rhyswatkins2689]

Do a reaction to “come as you are” and “lake of fire” unplugged and you’ll see how talented he really was

[@Cairo98_]

He couldn't sit still in Lake of Fire without having a guitar to strum lol.

[@Cairo98_]

@novax Yeah.

[@metaphoria3]

Great idea repeating the song in the background after in the background

[@noot6230]

Nirvana is my favorite band of all time, I love all three of their albums and all of their songs. The thing with Kurt and the idea of the grunge scene was that they were seemingly simple songs that anyone could play cuz that was the point. And a lot of the times the meaning behind lyrics was known only to Kurt unless he outright said it or you started like really grasping at straws to find a hidden meaning. This is extremely evident in the song “on a plain” he mostly wrote the music first then just wrote whatever lyrics sounded good to him and used them unless he wanted there to be an exact meaning to the song.

[@entropyfun]

you gots to watch nirvana unplugged - the best acoustic concert ever played.

[@rafaelcabralwilliams]

Kurt Cobain was, and still is one of the most intriguing songwriters i've ever heard, his approach to writing in my opinion is similar in process to that of David Lynch making films.

[@amyamiss9667]

Wow, this is a very dark song now that I really disect it with you guys. Interesting. Great video😊

[@donnysanders5518]

Love Nirvana. Ill never forget what I was doing when the the news came out. RIP Cobain

Nirvana's "Where did you sleep last night" (Ledbelly cover) from MTV Unplugged is exceptional listening. Worth your time.

I still remember growing up during peak Nirvana in 1992 and 1993, Kurt was omnipresent as a musician could get. There was hardly a day where I didn't listen to Nevermind at least five times. Drain You would be a fantastic choice next, or Serve the Servants from the album In Utero.

He did sign an album for me, tho. They are ppl with emotions. Maybe David just had a bad day. Great show, tho. I fell and wound up under the mosh pit somehow, I SURVIVED

[@markmcdonnell]

"soaked in bleach" is a reference to their first album Bleach from 1989, but it's a double meaning too. Cobain loved abstract lyrics.

[@CORNELL-di3ej]

This is one of the most important and recognisable song of Rock (Grunge) in history' not to mention it's awesome af..!

They play this song 10 times a day on every rock radio station in the country. it's like that "song that never ends" from that one kids show with the sheep puppet.

[@rx7dude2006]

Memoria means memory in spanish.It can also be broken down in two words “me” and “moria” which means I was dying.

A couple Nirvana songs I would really recommend are Where did you sleep last night or Lake of Fire. They're both on the MTV unplugged album

[@athopesend2015]

This song played all the time back when it came out, almost over played like most songs being pushed as hits. The 3 main Nirvana songs for me are: Lithium In Bloom All Apologies Song Request: For Today - Break the Cycle

[@Blizzard0fHope]

i would hope you guys try some of nirvanas 'unplugged' performance . where did you sleep last night. . about a girl .. . the man who solf the world. . . something in the way. . lake of fire. . any songs from that night . . i still love so much that they chose not to do any of their major radio hits for the show. . even doing alot of covers of their favortie bands

You need to react to "You Know You're Right" by Nirvana. Released posthumously, filled with raw emotion!

[@quasardude]

Hey guys, I think you should do grunge reactions more regularly. Bands like Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots and more Alice In Chains would be awesome!

Alice in Chains - Down In a Hole from MTV Unplugged!!!!

[@rupe82]

For sure. Soundgarden would be great, they've done Audioslave so it makes sense to do Soundgarden.

[@tsho6131]

I was in 7th grade social studies when a kid who I would have generally considered a tough guy walked into class just bawling. The teacher asked him what’s wrong and he said “Kurt Cobain killed himself.” I remember thinking...who’s that? I was just getting into Metallica and Megadeth at the time. When he told me who he was, I didn’t really have a response. It was kind of a whatever moment. Within the next couple of years, however, I really got into Nirvana and there was always this profound emotional response to a number of their songs, knowing what had happened. I can’t even imagine what people who were huge fans before he took his life must feel. There was a time I enjoyed Linkin Park and I was definitely a fan of Soundgarden and Audioslave back in the day, but Bennington and Cornell had achieved so much and were in their 40’s and 50’s, respectively. Nirvana was at peak popularity and Cobain was 27 years old. To lose a hero in that particular way when they are still so young and successful must have been very difficult to come to terms with.

[@leeunited633]

[@rippedtorn2310]

[@olubcs44]

Great choice guys, I lost count how many times I listened to this song, and the whole Nevermind album for that matter, when I was 12 - 16 years old, thanks a lot. Please react to "Nothing Is Not" by Morbid Angel and "In Their Darkened Shrines" by Nile.

Born of Osiris - Follow the Signs After the Burial - Lost in the Static Also, Christians reacting to Terence McKenna talking about DMT would be highly entertaining and interesting... as there is a book about how DMT may have played a role in the mystical visions Moses had near the burning bush. If you don't know what DMT is, now is the time to learn. Btw, love your channel and hope that my recommendations (if you decide to use them) progresses you towards whatever goals you may have.

Nirvana was a really good band when you had been out drinking a bit to much and just wanted to sit around and chat. But never really thought about the lyrics. I have kept myself from knowing the lyrics of Versailles - Faith and decision (for example) because just the voice and the music says so much in it self.

[@hanparker9752]

I’ve always thought it was about people being who they are, no matter what people believe them to be and how they judge you.

[@onionsssplays9095]

The song is about Kurt's relationship with heroin. 'Come as you are' because heroin doesn't care how f*cked up you are or how you come, it's got you however you are. 'take your time, hurry up, choice is yours don't be late' because either way it knows you will end up coming to it. 'I swear that I don't have a gun' meaning it's not forcing you to use but you can't help it and if you do you are staring down a loaded gun.
