Nirvana - Frances Farmer Will Have Her Revenge On Seattle (Guitar Cover)

[@Tomnedreb]

Full of jabs at Vanity Fair writer Lynn Hirschberg, who wrote a negative story about Courtney Love, this In Utero song also paid tribute to Seattle-born actress Frances Farmer, who was committed to an insane asylum against her will. "I guess that's my way of letting the world know that bureaucracy is everywhere and it can happen to anybody and it's a really evil thing," Cobain said. "The story of Frances Farmer is so sad and it can happen to anybody and it almost felt at a time that it was happening to us." But before Cobain had lyrics for it, it was an instrumental the trio jammed on in Dave Grohl's basement sometime before In Utero. "When I heard 'Frances Farmer,' I thought, 'Oh, my God, there's going to be another record,'" Grohl has said. Full of anger and pathos ("I miss the comfort in being sad," goes the chorus), the final song is one of In Utero's most primal -- right down to the toy piano Cobain played in the bridge Tuning: Detune a semitone down. Equipment used: Fender Kurt Cobain Jaguar, SansAmp Classic and Fender Mustang IV amp Lyrics: It's so relieving To know that you're leaving as soon as you get paid It's so relaxing To hear that you're asking whenever you get your way It's so soothing To know that you'll sue me, this is starting to sound the same I miss the comfort in being sad(x2) I miss the comfort in being saddd-aaaddd-aaaddd-aaaddd yeah.... In her false witness, we hope you're still with us, To see if they float or drown My favorite patient, a display of patience, Disease-covered Puget Sound She'll come back as fire, And burn all the liars, leave a blanket of ash on the ground I miss the comfort in being sad(x2) I miss the comfort in being saddd-aaaddd-aaaddd-aaaddd yeah.... It's so relieving To know that you're leaving as soon as you get paid It's so relaxing To know that you're asking wherever you get your way It's so soothing To know that you'll sue me, this is starting to sound the same I miss the comfort in being sad(x2) I miss the comfort in being saddd-aaaddd-aaaddd-aaaddd yeah....

It really is really underrated, i dont think it would if it had a different name to appeal to ppl tho

[@KingRiverVlogs]

@@chezzyritz99 the name sounds kinda dorky. I always thought it sounded like a parody by the name. Before I heard it for the first time, i thought it was about Francis Bean.

[@Fwuckle]

@@chezzyritz99 know this is a. Old thread, great cover to the dude on guitar. Taught me the song in 4 mins. It made me think while watching if this was released as the first single like Teen Spirit was it still would have been a number 1 single catchy as fk. Record company made Cobain bend on production and single releases.

[@rockybalboafreak]

Seriously underrated song by Nirvana. And it is one of my favorites. And you killed it. Amazing.

[@carfan7369]

He is killing it good job

[@heastoida8993]

Why underrated? All real nirvana fans love this song.. the ones that only know nirvanas "radio friendly" songs are'nt real nirvana fans.. they just weir nirvana t-shirts and say that they love axle rose.. xD

[@GuitarPlayer50011]

@@heastoida8993 people who know radio friendly know nirvana I’ll say smells like teen spirit instead of radio I barely met anyone who liked that song

[@Nirvana_1982]

2:25 when I’m standing up and playing this part I always rock the fuck out like there’s no tomorrow. Awesome cover, my favorite song of this album!

[@Ramertone]

This and drain you are my favorite nirvana songs. The little feedback part in this is sounds so cool

[@911Gameover]

it's so soothing to know that you'll sue me this is starting to sound the same. I miss the comfort in being sad.

[@nessman69]

I think the only way this could be more faithful is if you played guitar left-handed...Great job, just nailed it.

[@roday9212]

I'm left handed, I also play guitar left handed. Nirvana is one of my favorite bands. What a coincidence

[@scnovitsky]

I love these videos! Been a Nirvana fan since 13, and I love the way your distortion gives them new life and rawness. I had no idea about the piano in the bridge, so they are in informative to boot. Thank you!

[@Tomnedreb]

No problem, just happy to spread the Nirvana gospel.

[@darianbaxley8850]

I learned this song by watching your video!

[@Branabis]

This song is awesome. I always hear "Kickapoo" by tenacious d during he breakdown of this song lol. The jagstag is also a nice touch. Good cover, mate. Cheers.

[@marc8828]

its a jaguar actually

[@ThePsychicFish]

I had no idea what Kickapoo was, let's just say I am very pleasantly surprised lmao, and it does sound unnervingly similar lol

[@ee.gg.]

I get shivers listening to this

[@ee.gg.]

Love it

[@MM-kx5gg]

Hey Tom, amazing cover!!! Thanks a lot for sharing, one of my favorite songs! I wonder what settings you used for distortion layer, maybe you can advice me. Cheers from California!

[@mikemcneilly6428]

Hey, how do you get those screechy sounds when you at 0:40.Are those harmonics or something?

[@mooing7326]

Good question

[@rocketlaflare]

he didnt get them theyre in the song, i believe it's the same way billy corgan did the mayonaise whistle

[@ryanfutral964]

Hey Tom, been watching your videos for a while! Where could I find a backing track that has everything (including vocals) besides the guitar? Been looking for months

[@mahadeva6708]

great cover bro

[@ПавелБахарев-ф4с]

Sound- bomb!!!

[@bluemeadows40]

I have been playing this wrong... So many nuances

[@FelixIsMyName]

Great vid dude. I am curious what the Kurt Cobain Jaguar is like to play? I owned an 1995 Jag-Stang which I had as my only guitar from '96 to '14.

[@FRAGeditz]

Hey Tom, is it possible you could do the home recording of this song? I Absolutely love it and it was be awesome to see you play it on that classical

[@kot608]

Very cool man! Greetings from Ukraine!

[@franci5co]

Well Done !!!

[@1949bug]

[@Tomnedreb]

Pinky gone to heaven ;)

[@ash4952]

hey do have any tabs and tuning for this? great cover btw :)

[@stephendoran2690]

Great cover Tom.Question for you friend-What is the hardest song to play and which is your favourite?

[@Tomnedreb]

Hey, Stephen! Well, I find the solos the hardest to play, mostly because I find them boring to learn. So probably Love Buzz, Aero Zeppelin or Hairspray Queen. I find it really hard to pick a favorite as I love all of their songs but from the top of my head Blew, Breed, Aneurysm, caya, hsb, about a girl to mention a few. Probably forgot some..

[@stephendoran2690]

@@Tomnedreb there is a really good irish drummer who those nirvana covers on youtube called Colm Dowling: you guys would be awesome together!!

[@pierremagniat3637]

This cover is Amazing ! But I have a question. How you played this ? All the tab that I found are in Drop D. How Kurt played this music ? Like your cover or in Drop D like I saw. And Another question, why you made "slide" for the beginning of verses ? (PS : Sry for my English i'm french ^^)

[@isaacmagovero296]

hey Tom, I'm not sure if you take requests. but I wanted to know if you can upload a cover on the Rape Me live Paramount version. the solo in that song is amazing.

[@Tomnedreb]

+Isaac Magovero It's on my list ;)

[@Mistroable]

+Tomnedreb yes dude that would be amazing! that's the best version of rape me ever played in my opinion!

[@matteoinghilleri3559]

It is the best cover of this song! You're great, I have one quest, If you can do tutorial of some Nirvana songs 😊🍭

[@JoHo-q8g]

Bro for those that think nirvana is easy as a real fan I felt that solo I loved it even though that is not easy at all to mke jam hell yea brother rock on

[@eddieharman3650]

Well played mate. Once again I only ask you to turn your guitar up a little more to make it easier to hear your tone. Thanks

[@riverr9568]

i have that same shirt

[@eancasada7246]

What kind of settings do you have on your pedals/amp/guitars to get these sounds so close to the original songs?

[@nazzaa9054]

How I tune my guitar one semitone down :c?

[@jq.guitars]

Half step down Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Ee Semitone just means half step

[@screamrad218]

Dude, you should play Negative Creep, Breed, Heart Shaped Box.

[@Tomnedreb]

Already did all of them.

[@screamrad218]

+Tomnedreb Alright, i'll check it out!

[@AyeAjayy]

hey @tomnedreb are you and bloxsy the same person???

[@Tomnedreb]

Nope.

[@TheCamSays]

I've been noticing that you've been redoing some of your old covers. Are there anymore songs that you want to redo?

[@Tomnedreb]

+The Unstable Nerd Some of my older videos are not that good, so just wanted to do some new ones with better sound and picture. Yeah, I guess it's a few more I want to re-do, but I also have some new ones lined up when I can find some time.

[@михаилкаминский-д5е]

Круто!

[@simplenoise]

besides you cover, i love the shirt though!!!

[@mazumnoob3510]

A question: You do the power chords like Cobain? Hit the B string?

[@mazumnoob3510]

play 4 strings instead of 3?

[@Dylan-wi8bj]

Yes

[@ADTGuitars]

is the ds1 being used here?

[@Tomnedreb]

No, I use a SansAmp classic for distortion on this one.

[@ADTGuitars]

@@Tomnedreb do you use the ds1 tom?

[@skookum31]

Is that a Jag.?? (Fender, obviously).

[@Tomnedreb]

Kurt Cobain signature Jag

[@patriciosaldias1525]

El sonido de in utero se obtiene de mejor manera con una Fender Mustang y no Jaguar lo digo porque tengo los dos modelos

[@Tomnedreb]

Kurt usó tanto la Jaguar como la Mustang para grabar In Utero.

[@skookum31]

Kurts??

[@Tomnedreb]

yes

[@babyrakes]

You play guitar really weird with going down the neck, playing no notes then going all the way up to play the note. Never seen anyone play like that but good job man

[@GrungeVeins]

toy piano?

[@lucienlopez7327]

Detune a semitune down???
