I'm not saying I don't like the song, but in my opinion the only reason this gets called grunge is because it's nirvana. Example: "The man who sold the world" could never be called a grunge song in it's original form, nor this song. It was their style and attitude that afforded them the name.
@leancuervo08 I know, that's the point I was making, just because the song involved Kurt and grungey clothes doesn't make it grunge, the song was never grunge and even when they did it, it wasn't grunge, a great song, but not grunge.
All I'm saying is that grunge when it comes to Nirvana was a term that described the mood and feel of the band and image rather than a description of their music.
33 people are spitting on one the best covers of one of the greatest Folk songs ever composed by man. shame on you for being ignorant towards music that paved the way for the bullshit bureaucratic processed crap you call music.
@Nariz2000 there are good bands today. :) there are SOAD, metallica (still around, ya know. just don't listen to lulu) radiohead, rise against the foo fighter's, RHCP, avenged sevenfold . . . yes, there were some super awesome bands in the past, and some terrible musicians around today. but that doesn't mean that there are no good bands at all :)
@Nariz2000 sorry dude .. but how can you put metallica with grunge legends .. metallica is nothing .. compared to them .. and specially the vocals .. metallica live sucks .. Chris cornell .. LIVE KURT live .. EDDIE !??! ... james is nothing compared to those voices .. and metallica is the most overrated thing in metal ..
In the 90's everything was better. All musicians were depressed junkies and they still played great music and made hundreds of gigs. In these days musicians are spoiled teenagers and still their music suck and they can play one gig but then comes some fucking "burnout"....
If i was there i would have light up a Dutchie puff it 3 times like nothing happened and stand up and personlly hand it to Kurt so he´d give us a extra song after this one :D
@flip2512 You had no memory before you were born God allowed you to exist he created you there is a beginning and an end in life therefor there is a creator of the universe.
I have notice one thing and that is that anyone who's good at guitar has to do 2 things: flip your right handed guitar lefty and die at the age of 27.
I'll get shit on for this, but Mark Lanegan performed this song much better, as an homage of course, but it's just a lot more dark, reflecting the lyrical content.
People need to know this was Leadbelly's song. A slave's son wrote this. Kurt channelled the pain and curiosity here. This cover is beautiful and honest.
