Nirvana - Sappy (MTV Unplugged Mockup)

Photo by Frank Micelotta
RIOT EARTH's video inspired this audio edit. The MTV Unplugged Rock Band stems were used to put this together. Also, I used an RVC model of Kurt's Unplugged voice that I trained myself.

"Sappy" or "Sloppy"?

Never heard someone get the Unplugged Guitar sound right. This is great!

[@coatedslushie1667]

His studio vocals actually fit the unplugged style very well

[@dtmcbride]

And then Dave would say “that was really nice” to which Kurdt would reply “Shut Up”

[@NeverSaid]

Which is actually a missed opportunity on my part, I enjoyed that bit when I first heard it

[@abubruno]

Man. This is really impressive. Fells like Nirvana.

[@dreammachinedesign]

This has quickly become one of my favorite videos on KZbin. The skills you used to create this are unparalleled. Excellent work!

[@NeverSaid]

Thank you very much!

[@IggyB-Music]

This is exactly what I would expect it to sound like Sappys a great song! This would be my favorite on the album if they really did perform it

[@acmemasteri]

This one (another acoustic version) I heard just 2004. Ten years Geffen released this Nov 1993 gig, those sounds are very wonderfully together. These Unplugged In NY -drums are so regognizable. That live version is that where we learned to play this I have had now 27 years on cassette. Thanks about this.

[@shinobu5338]

this is fire dude, i didn't expect that, but it's just as good as riot earth versions. keep it up bro

[@TheLockdownKidNYC]

Very nice. Very nice. Even 5 years ago it's hard to believe this could ever exist in a believable format but the guitar, the dynamics, the voice - all extremely authentic.

[@NeverSaid]

Thank you. Looks like the usage of video game multitracks really helped to get that feeling

[@krisfrederick5001]

God they should have done this. It's my favorite Nirvana song in existence.

[@user-pu1oc3nq6h]

Привет из России. Прекрасная композиция получилась. Хочется слушать и слушать. Огромное спасибо.

[@jesus0801e]

It looked great on you man! I had never heard something so similar to the tone of Nirvana in its unplugged, could you make more songs? Some suggestions I give you are: Serve The Servants, Rape me and Sliver

[@elpiibemaravilla]

Please for the love of god, add Lounge Act

[@nirvanaaa1989]

yesss

[@kylereece1979]

This song should definitley have been on either Nevermind or In Utero. I know an earlier version of it goes back pre-Bleach days, and I always wondered why it just didnt make the final lineup on an album overall. Its one of their best. The "Nevermind" demo of it is my favourite. Melody and meloncholy together, with a really emotive solo from Kurt. This new "Unplugged" version from you once again highlights the songs ability to blend into any Nirvana era. It works wonders here, it sounds like yes, it easily could have made the original recording and have it officially stamped into the album list.

[@NeverSaid]

I like how the song has kinda always been there in different eras, it's so cool that we are able to experience its transition from early years till In Utero sessions. (I like the "Nevermind" version very much myself, this one and other outtakes is a great inside look into the process of this record's creation)

[@kylereece1979]

@@NeverSaid I first heard the Nevermind version just over 30 years ago, on a CD Bootleg called "Rough Tapes". It was a collection of BBC radio sessions, and some rough and unready renditions of Nevermind songs like In Bloom, along with Sappy (titled "Another Rule" on the disc), and "D7". The Nevermind Sappy- Imagine it on Nevermind right after Drain You. It sounds totally suited and perfect. After the double rush of Territorial Pissings and Drain You, Sappys mournful melodies are amazing. As much as I love Lounge Act and think its pacings and tempo also follows Drain You nicely- Sappy is almost too good to be true. Like Come as you Are on side 1, it offers a chorus pedal effected reflection, lush lull midway, before Stay Away crashes in and down. When listening to Nevermind nxt time mate- listen to the Nevermind Sappy right after Drain You. Its perfect!!

[@clintjones9848]

Beautiful

[@uikuik06]

My favorite song !!! Magnifique !!! ❤

[@AccordingToKat-fn6mv]

This is amazing! Would love to hear more.

[@ScratchedDVDhelp]

this is REALLY WELL DONE, holy crap, i've been working on something like this for like a month now and you beat me to it :(

[@spamcahntent]

This is so great--I love that D minor was used, makes it a little extra sad

[@Surepeacooler]

This is actually amazing! It sounds so close to the actual mtv unplugged sound! Can you do Do Ri Mi or Serve The Servants in this style?

[@papasitoman]

This is sooo well-made.

[@forceghostrecon1894]

fantastic work! now we just need Opinion and Talk to Me like this.. 😊 keep up the awesome work!

[@NeverSaid]

Thank you

[@israelson2]

Impresionante te quedó la raja

[@gmt7936]

[@nocturnallsnake4228]

Very authentic. I like the double guitars during the solo.

[@Dojasc]

This is incredible.

[@condor.67]

[@thomasbjorkstrand1943]

[@guilhermea.9415]

[@user-um9td5lh3t]

You nailed the solo i'm hearing this in repeat mode❤❤❤❤

[@antoniojesusfernandezjuare2905]

Una de mis canciones favoritas de Nirvana,como lo son todas,saludos

[@jeanphilippechappes9009]

Wow, fantastic ! One of my fav version of this song, thank you for that. I'd really want to know with more details how you managed to nail the unplugged tone

[@MakerAlanMusic]

Great Model!

[@HayabusaCrimsonShadow]

very well made, thanks.

[@Cleberslk]

Bro this is so good

[@NeverSaid]

Thanks brotha

[@blazeminio5683]

[@luiggizucchi6718]

[@mikeharris6722]

[@NoOne-yr9lz]

This one is really good! Keep it up man!

[@NeverSaid]

Thanks man, I appreciate it

[@bluesrpink]

Wow! Great work!

[@NeverSaid]

Thanks a lot!

[@mattdaniel2395]

Well done

[@victortexis4279]

Excelente 👍

[@Kurdt94]

Fkn Awesome! Thanks!

[@luisparedes5303]

Mindblowing. 😍😵

[@sebastienfayemendie2514]

😳😳😳 GREAT! PERFECT!

[@Anevrisme]

well done !

[@Miguel-wb9gl]

OMG! thank you!!!

[@Astarcalledthesun]

Its fucking awesome! Good job!

[@ianhale4466]

Damn man you really nailed that guitar tone

[@Hawkball-zm9dd]

Thankyou , they should’ve done it. Could’ve been a huge release

[@paulalexander6156]

Good job on the guitar tone 👍

[@ianherron1895]

That was a truly Cobain-esque solo for sure..!

[@fernando99]

Caralho, gostei demais. Pat usando o acorde Dm dá uma dissonância muito foda, parabéns pelo ótimo trabalho, você usou a base de pennyroyal Tea para o violão do kurt, não é? Percebo pela força no ataque às cordas. Seria legal você fazer as musicas que foram cogitadas pro concerto e acabaram ficando de fora, serve The Servants, screen, old age, etc...

[@fnafizi]

wow😮

[@nerdytall]

OMG THIS IS PEAK MAN!!! W YOU!!!

[@NeverSaid]

THANK YOU!1!!

[@blazeminio5683]

Wats up nerdtall

[@peanutdom]

Think this is my favourite version of this song. Amazing idea to train the voice to a different Kurt. Think all the AO models out there are based of Nevermind Kurt, which doesn't suit everything. Would like to hear this with accordion and cello on parts too

[@rockguy299]

fxcking luv u man

[@MaggieMyth242]

please make more omg

[@n.s.2690]

Broooooooo how'd you do this? He sounds exactly the same as the show. Can you do Serve The Servants?

[@NeverSaid]

I'll keep that & other suggestions in mind

[@nirvanaaa1989]

❤❤❤

[@user-my4wt4fh5p]

I really wish they performed it, but this’ll do

[@DistribucionesInvergonSa-ou3vn]

Sappy

[@user-um9td5lh3t]

👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@-LetMeSleep-]

Woah this is so cool, can you maybe do heart-shaped box?

[@JohaNixMad]

Please man , do talk to me in a Nevermind way

[@NeverSaid]

I'll get to that in a short while

[@ryanrobinson4072]

Yeah this is scary

[@enoc1138]

Fuese un super acustico si lo hubiesen tocado

[@aje9930]

This is sounds so real! How did you do it??

[@NeverSaid]

It was only possible thanks to MTV Unplugged multitracks from video games. Only a few songs are available, but even then, the files were good enough to choose the best audio bits (in my mind) from each instrument track.

[@beastbee0118]

What video games? ​@@NeverSaid

[@user-dodokdok24]

how to made it. great

[@danielschmidt427]

Funny 🎉

[@Astrozombies22]

Old age please!

[@InmarcesiblePodcast]

Please....teach how you to do that

[@recreatorband]

We’re a New Grunge band bringing back the big early 90’s sound, check our channel out!

[@NeverSaid]

I think what you're doing is cool. In a way, it's also refreshing. Way to go!

[@callumwarren3342]

HOW THE FUCK-

[@lennoncoimbra4856]

Cool,someone put only a real vocal from studio record and use the same instruments to play the record❤

[@Blueberrythegreat]

This ai ? Even in his youth would be a good one Also annuerisym

[@tela2168]

How the fuck did you do that! It seems original asf

[@NeverSaid]

I used different MTV Unplugged multitrack files from videogames like Rock Band/Guitar Hero & pieced stuff together the way I thought would fit the Unplugged version of this song (in reality the band would've done a far better job, but I still wanted to know if anything can be done to make this idea more than just a "what if")

[@Blueberrythegreat]

Solo needs a little tweaking

[@BP2UTV]

The voice is AI?

[@FlawlessVictory2.0]

На куплете чето замедлились😢
