[felipegourgan]

[EternalPerfektion]

@felipegourgan If you're being serious, yes it is. It's on WTLO, you stupid dummy.

[eduardyveronika]

no es kurt ._.

[DianeLindo]

This always gives me chills <3

[SilentFartBomb]

I was brought here by XxNirvanaSMMxX

[hughesvenice]

This raises the bar. Match that all you musician poseurs.

[profaneoneohone]

So great.

[BradnDillon]

Nirvanaa!<3

[amboz224]

o god im so sorry i just realized it :O 0.0

[amboz224]

this is NOT kurt cobain man

[Moscalicious]

@amboz224 yes it is

[Pomz44]

@amboz224 yeah it is dumbshit

[Pomz44]

Respond to this video... oh nvm just saw your other comment

[deanfrannerdoyle]

@amboz224 It is man its on the with the lights out C.D this is the first version of the son and it was later changed i think this version is better though

[deanfrannerdoyle]

Respond to this video... Love this

[rEdZHuN]

i need a pistol, and six bullets

[steeltoto]

Ok, it took me forever to find any good tab for this song, so if you want help, im here.

To play this song- strum down 2 times on an A chord, and down, up, down, up on a C chord then 2 times down on an E chord (but Eminor sounds cool) and down, up, down, up on a G chord. Up to you whether you use power chords. I think it sounds a bit better with full chords. BUT ITS UP TO U! RIP KURT! WE LOVE YOU!

[iDavidBee]

It doesn't sound like Kurt.

[steeltoto]

@iDavidBee oh, dont be such a smart-ass. IT IS HIM!

[iDavidBee]

@steeltoto Fuck You!

[steeltoto]

@iDavidBee Oh great, here comes another one of my famous youtube arguments. Do you want more? I've got plent from where the first one come from.

[iDavidBee]

@steeltoto Yeah!

[steeltoto]

@iDavidBee :D Aww, I would, but now your to sweet. :P but if you really want it HERE IT IS YOUR FUCKER! DONT DISCRIMINATE KURT COBAIN COZ I'LL FUCKING GET YOU! :D ROCK ON!

[iDavidBee]

@steeltoto Uhh? Lol.

[steeltoto]

@iDavidBee Ugghhhh, seriosuly. And please dont use the term "LOL" with anything in regard with Kurt Cobain. It isn't apropreate in this context. :) .... U must be confused....

[iDavidBee]

@steeltoto That's the most stupid thing I've ever heard. Your acting like i don't like Nirvana or Kurt Cobain? I am probably a bigger fan of them then you. So stop acting like your some kind of expert.

[steeltoto]

@iDavidBee Oh just fuck off ok? I've had enough of you! I adore Kurt, hes amazing. I seriously look up to him.

[iDavidBee]

@steeltoto Good for you? I don't give a shit.

[steeltoto]

@iDavidBee Wow, thats nice. Anyway, I'm sorry for being such a bitch. I just wanna get over this argument now. It was all my fault. I tend to do this...... Im very sorry for annoying you.

[JaneLame]

Are those different lyrics than the usual ones?

[InstantFilmBooth]

i play this song on my guitar along with him :)

[JoTrres]

6 people do not raped!!

[MrEeqqee]

beautiful song :)

[XxbmoxX88]

Kurt embodies the natural human instinct to evolve and fight conformity. He chose to create HIS sound and that is what is fascinating. The idea of something purely self-made in a society that is overly structured and industrialized we tend to become mechanized. Nirvana is what makes us believe in alternative. Freedom come as you are.

[augginator123]

@XxbmoxX88 actually the natural human way IS to conform. If it weren't there would be no such thing as societies.

[zackfair73195]

@augginator123 Ah, but there is such a thing as over conforming.

[ChebbsMastaFlex]

@zackfair73195 no, that is unconventional and preprogammed as part of your new environment. To perform is divine

[ChebbsMastaFlex]

@augginator123 bunch of psychopaths, living in little boxes, close to eachotherHAHA that is not society my friend

[ChebbsMastaFlex]

@XxbmoxX88 Kurt Cobain, straight forward with 2 doses of Death LOL

[AugustRushmoreism]

I find that the acoustics are a bit better then the originals, but there all still amazing either way. thumbs up if you agree.

[BigBugBuzz]

I wonder why Kurt Cobain has such an affect on people. I used to think people who admired Presley the way they do, were idiots, and I thought I would never admire anyone I had never met in that way. And here I am, being fascinated by Cobain. I think it boils down to his music. It was just different, it was surprising, yet made perfect sense as soon as he struck the next chord. Like a progression of surprise, typically looped into something that had perpetual energy.

[judyleasugar97]

@BigBugBuzz: It hits you in a place nothing else does!

[somedouchebagonline]

@BigBugBuzz You are a shy, timid and untrustworthy homosexual.

[ChebbsMastaFlex]

@somedouchebagonline thats fucking funny

[Mrhulyegyerekek]

Kurt, please come back!

[pinkicecube3]

definitely better than the other version. you can feel the emotion through his voice.

[DrFodi]

Can We Take Kurt Back ?? R.I.P Kurt Cobain 1967-1994

[YoshiokaSeijuro]

@DrFodi if only...such a pity to lose such great talent too early.

[previousname]

there will most likely never be another person like kurt cobain. when people think of kurt, they think of the awesome rock star that had great songs. what most do not see is the guy that he really was. he was just like everyone else, he was just more "in tune" with the world. he had something to sing about. i (along with millions) wanted to hang with this guy. his music is fuckin awesome

[supernaturalforces]

an out of tune guitar never sounded so good :D

[bogie5464]

i love this version. much better than the lp version everyone knows. i love the difference in the lyrics in almost every stanza. i love his emotion, and as a guitar player i love the difference in the riff. if you listen closely it's not the same every time he plays it like the album. he makes this song so much better... and now.. he isn't here to finish it! WTF?? i wanted this on an actual album, recorded, and refined!

[tylerdude1995]

like jim cary would say B.E.A.U.T,ful

[NeuroticRiot]

@tylerdude1995 Haha

[ajaxrulzz]

at some points he sounds like Dave

[bogie5464]

@ewd31989 who are you talking to? kurt's been dead for 16 years. this is him, it's not a "take," it's the effing song. i don't listen to the acoustic version of lithium with a friend and look at him and say... i like your take on this... ???

[jasamaha8]

@ewd31989 Its Kurt on vocals lol

[lu770]

kurt the best in the world

[xbenxskiverx]

nirvana is the biggest influence on my band Stories Never Told...if anyone is interested we have a song posted on my page and we'd be grateful for anyone to come tell us what they think...thank you

[blabber69]

kurdt said he wanted to be a classical guitarist, imagine what he would have made if he didnt do grunge

[RebelThoughts]

This is so amazing. The man was so talented. It's a shame he's gone.

[colashanacogh]

god give us back kurt cobain and the rev, in return we will give you justin bieber and lady gaga

[loganator112]

@colashanacogh ROFL thats awesome. i would sacrifice one million Lady Gagas for Kurt

[luisazavich]

@loganator112 HELL YES.

[delabre12]

@colashanacogh well not a fan if lady gaga. but you know she is very socially active for a lot of cause. 

[delabre12]

@delabre12 of*

[Kballa112]

And never once I said Fall Fall into his nest Oh Wake me Make me do it again Save me Save me young friend Soon I have found recourse Hey On my life and more Say I'm not alike anymore Hey I'm not a country horse

[Kballa112]

Here are the lyrics people "Check, check, check, check, check..." Rape me Rape me and then Father just take me Rape me again Son As soon as my embarrassment's my gone Free I'm not a lonely one See Must mean I meant to you Free He was a nasty guest

[Ursonmory]

i havent seen a single band with so many good songs..

[stfuem]

SEEEEEEEXXXXX.

[YouFuckenConformists]

lol he changed all the lyrics to just pretty much rape me lol

[jacktheman007]

anyone wanna post the lyrics for me? :)

[thee1andonlyme]

i fucking hate kurt cobain for killing himself. god damn still pisses me off to this day. bitterness is eating out my kindness

[TheTruthMusicDoubleT]

@thee1andonlyme he didint kill his self u cant be so sure of that and even if he did recpect his decision no one lives forever better to pick your time then to stay around and burn out

[abrahamct6]

@TheTruthMusicDoubleT its better to burn out than fade away!!!

[srekazinskas]

wish i had creativity to write such songs.

[GodofAcheron]

This kind of makes me sad that Kurt is Dead.

R.I.P.

[pedskon]

Kurt sounds so different on this one...

[DJGame11]

RIP Kurt Cobain

you will be alive in our hearts

NIRVANA ROCKS

[slashofdeath]

@DJGame11 What the fuck dude? Kurt Cobain is still alive, didn't you press the play button? :D

[KingGingerbread5O]

Does anyone else catch the "I'm not alive anymore.." at the end?Weird,hearing it after he's gone.

[puto1337]

@KingGingerbread5O

Hey its "I'm not alike anymore" i founded solo acoustic lyrics it was in 1992 ;p

[KingGingerbread5O]

@puto1337 you never know,he could've been planning it for years in advance...

[judyleasugar97]

@KingGingerbread5O: Kurt was actually honest about the anger and pain he felt unlike a lot of people who bottle it up (we all feel it, admit). That doesn't mean he was depressed.

[grungerocks5055]

Does anyone have the lyrics to this?

[nirvanaaddict8989]

NO NO NO!!! the meaning of the song rape me is if someone rapes someone they are going to eventually get caught, go to prison and get raped in there so yeah your going to get what you want so go ahead and rape me cause your going to get yours. that is what kurt meant but this song

[judyleasugar97]

I agree there is the sense of *rape me, but I'm going to get even with you* in the song.

[KuNGFoOCHaRLiE]

@nirvanaaddict8989 your wrong mate, its a spiritual thing

[nirvanaaddict8989]

well i heard him explain it in himself in an interview and in micheal azzerands come as you says so too =) im not saying your wrong cause the song can mean whatever you want it to mean, but that is what he means by the song so do your research and if you got proof thats what he means then prove me wrong sir-

[death666sex]

dude, do your research, this isn't about rape or anti rape!! that's all i'm saying you wanna know find out yourself cos i'm sick of seeing idiotic comments on Nirvana vids (not that your comment is too idiotic it's quite justifiable if you know nothing about Nirvana/Kurt Cobain no offence intended)

[cawthorne8]

kurt said in an interview it was an anti rape song.

[corvettels9]

with Spin magazine.

[thee1andonlyme]

@death666sex its actually an anti rape song

[KJ0012]

@11reeses yeah, me 2

[card144]

This are others lyricis

[dtw8686]

You're a tool. No self-respecting 'artist' would ever be on that whore-mongering show. This music and the music of it's contemperaries are the antithesis of that stupid-assed show.

[pelinette]

@JackHauss Oooh no, you suck!

[joemusiclover]

true, but thats just proof u dont need the so called perfect voice they seek for.

[joemusiclover]

and dont forget he fucked the king of pop right off the charts

[mastrcheeeef]

@JackHauss your a gay ass twat

[apscence]

luv hm 2..!!!

[judyleasugar97]

I love you Kurt Cobain.

[satanistanarchy]

i love Kurt Cobain. he is my hero. i literally worship everything he created. this is no doubt my favorite version of Rape Me. when i first got With The Lights Out and heard this version i cried because you could feel all the pain in his voice.

[ricardomelvipk]

i cried when i listened to kurts old age acoustic demo :'(

[satanistanarchy]

i personally love Kurt. hes my life hero. hes what got me to pick up guitar and start writing lyrics. i think he put more emotion into his music than any other musician out there even today. theres only one great musician every so often and Kurt excelled that. he was better than great.

[thee1andonlyme]

@satanistanarchy what pain? he was an average guy but all these fuck journalists made him out to be some depressed shit. he was a fun/funny guy his music is just very soulful. wait is that contradictory? oh whatever you get the idea. hopefully.

[raccoonman14]

...idk if its the microphone or what....but he sounds really depressed...kinda sounds like he's crying.

[LemurDeCatta]

I think he didn't care about it, he was probaly made to do this song. Who knows.

[ajsledzep]

i get a bad feeling about kurt cobain

he was such a mess , i pitty him why do people worship and idolize him,,, he was a great visionary

but his life i would not idolize

[kingddd133]

@ajsledzep he was amazing...i dont think anyone really idolizes his lifestyle? it kinda blows

[macskasegg]

His suffering inside can be heard out from his voice. Poor guy. It's a great version.

[superstratomaster]

best version hands down

[becoeira]

Kurt = God , hay que saber disfrutrar de las cosas sencillas de la vida ...

[mendosa10]

its cobain in a demo :) :X:X

[skullebrity]

a masterpiece....R.I.P.kurt cobain...

[marc69cram96marc]

actually lilc2012 it wasnt lol... it was about watever kurt said in an interview the media would twist his words to mean something else... hence the line '' our favourite inside sorce''

[lithium2370]

man u sound like a deucebag

[kurdtisgod1]

this version is so fuckin awesome!!! i shit when i heard it for the first time

[EternalPerfektion]

It's Kurt Cobain. This version is on a certified Nirvana boxset called With The Lights Out.

[omgimeinafire]

@EternalPerfektion i have that :D

[lithium2370]

well u would think wrong...

[IveyMae]

shadygrove- Kurt's voice sounded a bit higher/had a different timbre in these home made recordings. It is him, though. I find these recordings to be the most emotional ones he did. Amazing stuff. You feel like you're there with him and he's singing to you (I wish!).

[Utero24]

@IveyMae I so agree with you!

[LilC2012]

for those who don't know, this song is about what was going on in Indonesia at the time

lots of wemon were getting raped, and Nirvana members want to stick up 4 them

[lithium2370]

where did u get this info?

[pvthansen1234]

@LilC2012 This song is about how everyone was fucking him over in the media. Even then, we never know what the hell kurt is talking about because the meaning is in his tone and music.

[LilC2012]

the media? he made this song before Nevermind even came out

[pvthansen1234]

@LilC2012 Okay... But guaranteed, it's not about girls getting raped.

[LilC2012]

I think hes made this song as if he was standing up for rape victims, like he couldve got pissed after hearing someone got raped, and said try to rape me bitch " rape me!" idk thats my my opinion

[judyleasugar97]

@LilC2012, physical rape, sure, but the meaning of this song can reflect any way that people feel raped. Recently I was thinking about it in terms of how corporate America is raping the middle class. It's such a great song.

[LilC2012]

yeah,

[pvthansen1234]

@LilC2012 Yeah, I guess their songs really are how people percieve them. But I don't know what he intended for Rape Me. But I know Polly was an anti-rape song.

[REC0802]

@LilC2012 The song your looking for is more along the lines of polly

[squelettedelicieux]

ah my favorite nirvana song. brings back memories. :)

[Hatton08]

of rape?

[tonipjr]

Lol xD

[U2rock55]

i laugh at how major record labels and Itunes are commercializing music recorded from a boombox and how they will sue you hosting this.

If only Nirvana were still around (and Courtney Love didn't claim all the music)...

And i couldn't help noticing how Kurt is wearing a jawbreaker shirt at 3:03

(if you haven't heard of Jawbreaker,you have now so go look them up).Awesome.

[NanoReef14]

in my opinon, this is the pure essance of what makes nirvana nirvana

[childofthesun314]

Rape me, father just take me. rape me agian" .... "wake me, make me do it agian" (father knows) my god this song is dark. way better, sader and more powerful then the version on in utero. it makes me want to learn to play this song and combine the lyrics from this version and the in utero one. maybe add or change a few lyrics while keeping the mood of this song.

[GOHABSGO125]

this version has better lyrics, well melody...but both versions are aweome, like the studio one he has the bridge ect. depends on u!

[MisterAtoms]

LOL I love how he "dusts off his hands" before playing , I mean come on, who needs to dust off their hands before playing guitar? - for some reason that just makes me feel like he KNOWS this is a bangin song and that people will be listening to his demo of it for years because it's THAT good.

[floydthebarber2112]

dispite the misleading lyrics it is the only thing now that can neerly reduce my to tears.

[killhannahINT]

my friend sings this version of the song all the time. it is so beautiful and in my opinion its hands down better than the other version.

[itsboutfreakintimeee]

yeah except in the other version i love at the end where he screams rape me.

[mcrgd64]

wow i love this version, and the lyrics!!

[xxpoisonxgrrlxx]

I can explan how beautiful this is

Definatly golden ,

I wish i could download it

[SMILEK55]

itunes has it

yes it is the acoustic solo

[SpicyDonuts]

use audacity

[thee1andonlyme]

@xxpoisonxgrrlxx its on itunes

[18Scarecrow]

best version..best lyrics

[djpokki]

AHAHHAHAAHHAHA TY

[klas2djdw]

lol, 1:18 Krist has a Sonic Youth shirt xD

[NanoReef14]

Best Version!

[Gothicfaeiry3]

Love it I own almost all NIrvana CDs except one which is the first one. I better go to Best Buy and see if they have it there.

[ATFrez]

You mean Bleach? Definitely worth it! Best Buy most likely won't have it though....... Mine didn't......

Best bet is Wal-Mart. :-)

[EverybodyLoveUs]

I LOVE KURT COBAIN !

he's so cute

[Machinehead45]

Man I love this lyrics alot more in this version. I love the other one ofcourse but I think these are a lot more clear of the point he's trying to get across

[headache888]

its like a completly other song =)

[555gina666]

i love kurt cobain so much....he has a beautiful voice.....to bad he had to die

[dan144x]

both versions are haunting, it's amazing to see how it developed from brutal soft, to screaming loud! and the lyrics change is interesting. especially the verses, and chorus area! Nirvana fan since age 10 (April 5th, 1994)the day Cobain died, but his music lived on forever and always will.

[voltronmax45]

Beautiful song by one of the greatest artists ever.

[11r14l92s]

totally agree

[marcogeometra]

very very nice !!
