kurt kobain was a pure genius artist. every song on every album nirvana did is truely great. they are so pure, dave grohl's drumming is amazing. their music moves me, it really rocks, it has such pure beautiful, visceral, intensity within the simplicity, i luv trios n guitar music
This is by far the best performance of Drain You in Half step Tuning. Ive listened to this song more than any other in my entire life. If i had one chance to play guitar and sing in fron of a crowd, this would be the song R.I.P K.C
It was ozzy who said, "I love Nirvana- it was heavy metal meets the beatles". Every band comes from some background- I like to think of the foo fighters for example as a couple of bored kids who discover the pixies at a trailer park bbq
its been stated more times than everything else that alot of this song he had said himself didnt mean anything. tThis song like most of Nevermind was supposedly, and again more times than most been told has been written about tobi vail. though i tend to agree that this song is about drug use, as to be talking directly to ms/ Heroin herself
i think Nevermind's lyrics were just full of nonsense dont get wrong the music on Nevermind kicks major ass but i think In Utero was a more well thought out lyrics compare to nevermind
yea on nevermind i think kurt was a lot happier, and the lyrics are more happy(ish) than in utero obviously. the lyrics to in utero are almost scary, it is like a long suicide note!
I hate to post again so soon only after 2 weeks, but this is one of those things in my life i think about alot, this song is like a paradox to me. Does anyone else have a problem with theis song not being too far from their thoughts, not in a bad way, i never tire over it.
Mad cool. You don't usually hear Nirvana mixed this well live, I guess the techs across the pond do better work. It's tough to make something as chaotic as this sound beautiful live (especially since on the album it was tracked six times w/ mesa overdubs and the like), but it does.
I love this version... I notice in some of the later live clips of this song, Kurt speeds it up a bit, but that little bit of tempo change really affects the feel of the song. I love the energy :-)
me and my mate were at reading 92,nirvana were awesome as you can see,at the end kurt gave his guitar 2 sumbody about 10 foot away from me and as he left the stage the shithead security took it from the kid,i would never of let go of kurts guitar,....
Nirvana was my zeitgeist when I was 26, this songs rocks, Brings back memories of a difficult time in my life anybody doing it tuff can get through it with songs like these you know you are not alone. Nirvana is a indian word that means heaven. So much emotion so much feeling in those days. I was so alive.
haha yup shane's right kurt kinda slacked a lot of their songs but this was always a knockout live, one of my very favorite Nirvana songs. oddly enough the Nevermind version sucked elephant cock...
it is now my duty to completely drain you kurt was an amazing lyrisist he wrote all nirvana songs exept for 2 ibelieve i miss him so much heroin fucking sucks it takes and takes and it took kurt rip bro your truly missed
Krist looks awesome here.....and Kurt and Dave are rocking out.....pure rock n' roll.....no fancy pansy frontman stuff from Kurt...rocking with a vengeance, wish more bands did that these days..
watch seether cover this song type in seether drain you it is pretty good about the best cover you are gonna get nirvana is not the easy to cover cause well the kick some fucking ass

nirvana was a small essense.. but if u emphasize on it, it becomes bigger than anything.
Like krist says.. the people came to nirvana.
