Kurt is 1 of the only musicians to ever have gone through an entire MTV Unplugged in 1 take. Almost every other unplugged had to be edited and put together. He sat down and played the whole show in one shot. This is what he was capable of. RIP Kurt. We miss you

I always thought about this song being a story from the pov of Bowie. He has finally reached the height of his fame. After his performance, he walks backstage. He passes a figure in the shadows, one that he recognizes. It was that of a man whom he had heard rumors about in his circles in the depths of the music industry. The figure was a man who had reached the height of power and wealth. He made trillions off of the suffering and death of millions of people. He was the man who sold the world. Then, Bowie speaks with him. The song is about his brief, backstage, brush with a man so unbelievably powerful that no one even knows who he is.

@gamete43754 жыл бұрын
They're spitting and throwing things at his very expensive camera. There's another version I've seen which includes Narduar's entrance and more "respectful" behavior. Courtney apparently arranged the interview, I don't think the boys were on board. To be fair, Narduar takes shit from everyone. Still, having actually been around at this time, my memory of Kurt is not one of a respectful guy. More irreverent and borderline personality types of shit. Whatever you say, though. I really liked Nirvana back in the day, had all their studio records and a bunch of "bootleg" records. I'm not even mad that he was that way. I just would never characterize his behaviors as respectful. He was trying to shock you.

@@wurstfinger3289 Well "great musicians" is a subjective term and people like all kinds of different music. Some people don't like Bach. Doesn't mean he wasn't great. If somebody is really good at what they do I don't care what kind of music it is, I pay attention. Kurt was good at what he did. Musicians don't want to be categorized or stuck in a box of some kind, they want to be free to explore and experiment with new things. That's why I hate it when you're at a concert and some yahoo keeps yelling out for the band to do some old song. It's much more interesting to see where a band is going and what they're creating that's new. The only thing I find it hard to listen to is "dissonance" when the notes are not in harmony in any way. That's just noise. I like everything from "Iko Iko" by the Dixie Cups to "29 Palms" by Robert Plant.

There was a time during the '50s when some jazz musicians were experimenting with dissonance. The sound was quite chaotic/confused and not really pleasing to the human ear except as a curiosity and it didn't last long. But you can listen to the most intricate jazz and it harmonizes in some fashion no matter how obtusely. So I know the difference between harmony and dissonance. Even in ancient Africa the natives made drums that harmonized. And what is "cultural industrialized productions"?

@@johnallen2771 cultural industry in very short means enlightment as instrument of massdesception. culture in capitalistic societies has to follow the same dictation of capital, as the industrial production. most important is not the cultural aspect but the value-realization. its not about art, its about selling. so the product doesnt have to be cultural valuable, it has to be easy to consume, easy to understand. it has to have nothing challenging, nothing that could make the individual grow with it. it has to be that easy, that after a day of 8-10 hours work, you can just relax and do nothing, while this music is played. actually, you dont even really need to listen. you can do anything else parallel to it. so its not challenging products, its degenerative products. its a term not only usefull for music but also for movies, architecture, ... culture. you can see it everywhere, if you take a closer look. the theroy calls out 2 phases: before that, in the liberal days, art was used for progressive, emancipative, critical action with some impact. it was mostly about resistance. its been about free art and stuff. now, in the late capitalism, the art is not free anymore, because "freedom" doenst necessarily express itself in getting money. "free art" in the very most cases means poor artist. very poor artist. nowadays, art lost a lot of its substance. "under my umbrella ella ella e e e" (rihanna) or eric claptons always the same and not very various guitar"licks" as an example. he s not scofield, joscho stephan or david fiuzcinsky. the impact, that this has on society: the autonomous individual will be replaced by a hetereonomous one. thats what we can see all over the world. the "world of culture" becomes seperated in one very small part of real authentic arts and a big one, produced in an industrial way: mass production of easy things, no complex messages and so on. means: the art doesnt communicate or interact with the individual anymore, because the individual is degraded to a consumer. the topics will be only ... easy stuff, superficialities. cultural industry is massculture, as a weapon of assimilation. its as adorno and horckheimer said: "culture today is infecting everything with sameness".

there was nothing quite like the creative froth of the late 80's and early 90's as the Reagan era came to a close and alternative rock came to the mainstream sadly, we may not have another one of these eras. the digital music economy is a beast where the single dominates and is much a throwback to the corporate owned music economy of the previous decades . This revolution in the digital economy promised much but seems to have been a false promise, and it truly has been the last big revolution in music since Nirvana and the emergence and recognition of hip hop after his death which was a long time coming. the true next revolution may be in free sharing of music created and shared outside of it that allows for true genuine growth and experimentation
