  • me gusta ;D

  • HAPPY BITRTHDAY KURT!!!!! (sorry i am psting this two days after kurts original birtday but my computer was being a pop so HAPPY BELATED BIIRTHDAY KURT WE MISS YOU!

  • My guess is, it's about a greater authority like a God or even the government. He'll treat you like shit but as long as you're happy it's all fine. :/

  • Happy Birthdayy Kurt<3 we all love you!! Your legacy will live on forever!!! carried on by every generation! R.I.P.

  • happy birthday kurt <3 :)

  • Amazing song.Amazing band

  • KURT IS G O D  !!!!!!!

  • We're lucky that God made us, to be like his pets. nice enough to give me breathing holes in the jar he put me in. This fucking laundrey room I'm trapped in sucks. Very few people actually are tearing away at the fabric, and pulling the curtain down as directly as Kurt does here. It's all bullshit, and it's bad for ya, the clue just came to me. Fool yourself, serve him, it's all to fuck with your head... wallow in shit, God loves you... <3

  • @TheDistortedViews I think this song is about him and selling his soul to the Illuminati. Not god.

  • actually Kurt never died

  • Amazing and strong.

  • a very well written and musically sound song... let's leave it at that

  • Sick of people talking about genres of music. That's such a limited conversation, and it always ends the same way, with everyone agreed that everyone else is a dumbass.

  • im the hamster

  • @Erieskies im the walrus!

  • Should change the description. "Verse Chorus Verse" is not the same song as "Sappy". "Verse Chorus Verse" is another name for what was known in bootleg circles as "In His Hands". Two different songs.

  • I feel like crying listening to this song,its so beautiful.

  • Grunge 4ever!!

    

  • I CUMPLEATLY UNDERSTAND THIS SONG!!! ITS AMAZING!!!!

  • I love classic rock/grunge. I refuse to let them die!

  • when I was 14 or 15 I couldn't find this one in any store, youtube didn't exist but I knew from books about Nirvana about this song.

    I waited 1 year and then Napster came out and I could finally listen to this masterpiece.1 fucking year waiting.

    This was when I realized how revolutionary internet was

  • This is seriously the best song I've ever heard. Can't believe I overlooked it for so many years.

  • kurt is one of coolest guy ever

  • one word...repeat ^__^

  • Lol I just watched the episode of Arrested Development where Buster has a turtle and then the turtles eats a bunch of weed and dies.

  • \m/

    [*]

  • @allyoucanjcam Ok but it's not the same version, it's just a demo. This one seems to be " official " or something.

  • my god these cornflakes are fresh

  • Name of the album? Because in the 5 outcesticide there isn't this version...

  • @DeclyDecly no album wasn't released until they disbanded

  • @mrspiky56 I didn't say it was.

  • <3

  • My favourite Nirvana song. I'll never forget seeing them on "The Word" in 1990. It was like being hit by a truck!! When he killed himself I cried like a baby.....

  • TEENAGE MUTANT EMO TURTLES

    Kurt said this was his favorite Nirvana tune. I can definitely see why.

  • at first ithought this song was about a person being held hostage, a turtle would make sense but a grasshopper would make even more sense. either way it would make sense though...... :-/

  • @samruiz0000 makes sense......

  • @samruiz0000 makes sense......

  • @GirlPeaceMaker I heard it's about a grasshopper, that kurt kept in a jar and smoked when it died.

  • @GirlPeaceMaker i know dave grohl said kurt had these turtles that dave thought were really sad cus they banged their heads on the glass, and i guess its to do with that

  • I think, honestly, it should've been "And if you fuck yourself" because I seem to recall hearing it that way once and it just clicked a lot more for me.

  • It's actually about abuse. A marriage between a controller and a victim. Much like capturing an animal and appeasing it with an unnatural environment, using it up and then forgetting about it in a "laundry room." If he had said basement it would have made the song much creepier.

  • @GirlPeaceMaker Well, let's look at the lyrics:

    "He'll keep you in a jar, and you'll think you're happy

    He'll give you breathing holes, and you'll think you're happy

    He'll cover you with grass, and you'll think you're happy."

    Sounds like it's about a turtle to me.

  • @extinctlyville How does a turtle cut itself lol 

  • @Frallon personification

  • @Frallon emo turtle lol.

  • @extinctlyville I heard it was about a grasshopper Kurt took and put it in a jar o.o

  • Punk never dies, grunge will never die as long as the music is there... 

  • @redheartbox "grunge"...of ourse it's not dead, it was never "alive" . it doesnt exist. "grunge" was a lame marketing term used to exploit bands from seattle. if you go to seattle and say somthing about "grunge", everything will go black and you'll wake up in the ER.

  • @StraytRayzorSymphony I agree, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, and Alice In Chains have very little in common except some similar influences in the 80's underground scene. Grunge was made up by the media and, in the words of the Melvins, "is corporate garbage." However, I use the term to describe the Seattle scene just because people will know what I'm talking about.

  • @GirlPeaceMaker its about his pet turtles that lived in his laundry room, "you live in a laundry room!" is one of the lyrics

  • 0:15

    

  • 0:05

    

  • @GirlPeaceMaker ROFLMAO!

  • @GirlPeaceMaker kurt liked to keep turtles as pets, but because courtney thought they smelled she made him keep them in a box in their laundry room

  • what does sappy mean?

  • @GiveMeMyWhammy It mean Sad+Happy=Sapyy

  • the first man to play like a HUMAN....self expression at it's finest.

  • Well...are You sappy or had?

  • bass

  • F.T.H

  • Sappy was One The Best Song In Nervana set List!!!!

  • We all know Courtney Love killed Kurt Cobain...

  • @KeeGan1926 We all know dumbasses think this way.

  • @OlympiaMusicTV Well i guess i'm the "Dumbass" considering Kurt Cobain really didnt have a reason to kill himself. And dont tell me some bullshit about him not wanting his music to become part of mainstream media, because he wouldnt have tried to get singed on a contract of whatever but i digress im sure i dont know anything.

  • @KeeGan1926 you are seriously narrow minded...life is not black and white...plenty of gray area...Kurt seemed to live in the gray area...don't profess to KNOW what he was thinking and feeling...that's ignorant. and yes, you are a "dumbass".

  • I am not happy at all by the fact God fucking killed Kurt! Son of a bitch, I WANT NIRVANA!!!!!!

  • Well...

    htt p:// soundcloud.c om/bennjordan/kurt-cobain-chai­nsaw-voice

  • I will take Grunge back to this fucking generation

  • Its great, i love his voice..

  • PUNK/Grunge is not dead. it just went back to the underground where it belongs. the media been trying soo hard for years to get punk out of the dark. in the 90's it happened. looked what happened... RIP buddy.

  • @crazy4baseball47 yeah grunge died

    pop punk sold out

    and emo became whatever the fuck a plain white t is

  • @systemofachemicalnir grunge aint dead. mudhoney still performs. so does aic, soundgarden, and pearl jam.

  • @The90srockfan Bush too

  • @MrPhilliesfan18 true true. their new record is pretty good btw. nice screen name too. Go Phillies!!!

  • @The90srockfan Thats what i hear. yea i hope the Phillies make it father than last year

  • @The90srockfan of course new music like hip hop and pop and things like that have come out but there are still people who are all for grunge like me! btw to anyone who is reading this this video is not here so we can talk about kurt cobain dying its not here to talk about spros its not here to talk about anything else except the song!! NIRVANA 4EVER..just becaus one band mite hav ended doesnt make the whole genre a ffail!! soundgarden still rocks so does alice in chains, mudhoney and audislave

  • @iamthewalrus604 yeah i agree with ya but the only reason we were talking sports was cuz i complimented his user name. 

  • @The90srockfan sorry i ust assumed... i agree with u about the phillies......but still this vid is awesome and kurt lives 4ever in my hart.

  • @iamthewalrus604 It's cool. Just enjoying listening to my favorite band of all time. Rock on brother

  • @The90srockfan koool nirvana is my fav 2 i have at least 5 nirvana t shirts in my closet right now! ROCK ON to you to ! but do u honestly think that i am a guy?

  • @iamthewalrus604 Well how am I suppose to know if you're a guy or not? I just assumed. Sorry.

  • @The90srockfan o my goodness i said " i just assumed" to you when yu were talking about sports! dont apologize its my fault IM sorry! lets change the subject and talk about nirvana and the music. two days ago was kurt cobains birthday i shuld have posted something about it on his birthday but my computer was being a poop so HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY KURT or shuld i say happy UNbirthday today!!

  • @iamthewalrus604 I was saying sorry about assuming you were a guy. It's all good. Peace

  • @crazy4baseball47 Punk and Grunge are completely different. All punk is, is a relativley good message with shitty musical talent.

  • @Algonquin81 Both are anti-authority, greed, etc. so what they stand for is similar. Musicwise they are different but what they do to people and aim to do is similar.

  • @crazy4baseball47  yeah that has nothing to do with Cobain killing himself. Where do you get this?

  • perspective is relative

    -me

    shut the fuck up and listen

    -also me

  • i <3 turtles

  • this song is completely and 200% about Cobain and God

  • i heard dis song from a friend!!!!!LOVe it da first time i heard it!!!!!!!!!!

  • I was once told that all humans are gods experiment, and if you think that while listening to this the lyrics kind of make sense. Like if we pray and ignore our real feelings and suck up to God you'll think you're happy.

  • 4 people don't have breathing holes

  • pretty sure turtles don't cut themselves

  • @1023JPG im pretty sure when he says "and if you cut youself" i think he means the turtle hiding in his shell and pretty much being emo and keeping to himself. then he will think hes happy because hes in his zone where noone can hurt him, and using the word "cut" to sum it all up. you gatta remember how sarcastic kurt is with his lyrics.

  • @crazy4baseball47 i think it's more of a metaphor, that no matter what you do to yourself, that other person won't love you. this person owns you and still doesnt love you and you'll do whatever they say

  • 4 ppl thought they were in a laundry room, but found out it was a closet...

  • About a turtle WOW... :)

  • @123nonm I do..Need an eye to lend hahahaha get it???

  • Think we're all in a laundry room....

  • i thought myself this song on drums :)

  • It's so fitting that this song has a McDonald's ad on the video.

  • @WhatsReallyGoingOn84 Sappy meals? lol

  • @GirlPeaceMaker Kurt had a couple of turtles living in a jar with breathing holes in a laundry room, so it's about them.

  • Comment removed

  • i had a turtle once. it died. now im sappy

  • the turtle isnt really a turtle its a girl with a controling boyfriend

  • @big3wheeler28 no...its a turtle

  • 4 people never had a turtle

  • I'm not crazy about Nirvana, but this song is VERY good!

    Kinda sounds like trashy Redd Kross!!

  • my mom said Kurt was a sick crazy mother fucking drug addict and thats why she doesn't like Nirvana i said "Well your in love with Mick Jagger and he was addicted to herion AND lsd... are you new at this?"  fuckyoumom

  • @thecandymansprowl lol good said except fuckyoumom

  • @uzickimajmunac not like i really said that too her she just doesn't know good music...

  • idk is there 2 versions of verse chorus verse?? cuz the other one is a Nevermind outtake (completely different than this one) and this is sappy but different (without the "and if you FUCK yourself" line... and clean guitar on verse and dont start with distortion) honestly in my opinion i think the other version of Sappy is better than this version!! this one pisses me off... its TOO clean

  • @junkhead27 Yeah...this song was an older Nirvana song that Kurt had from the days that Chad was in the band, and it went by the name Sappy. They performed it live a bunch, and I think they recorded a few different versions of it over the years. This particular version is an outtake from the In Utero sessions. For whatever reason, he decided to change the title to Verse Chorus Verse, not to be confused with the unfinished Nevermind outtake of the same name :)

  • SAPPY !!! 

  • from wich album is this?

  • this song was a remake of his 1st version, he wrote about God when he was going to church

  • this is verse course verse from the album no alternative and i dont thinks its about a turtle HIPH HOP WOULD BE DEAD IF NIRVANA WAS STILL GOING

  • @yourhighnessss maybe but ironically snoop dogg was signed to the same record label after leaving death row records lol gotdamn geffen records

  • @jimmefoxx lol thanks for the info i dident no

  • @yourhighnessss What are you talking about? Hip Hop is pretty much dead. Nirvana slaughtered it with joy.

  • i had always thought this song was calld verse chorus verse

  • Even if this song was written about a pet turtle, there is so much emotion and im sure so much symbolism to this song. all in all this is such a powerful song.

  • You can tell the greatness of a band by the quality of their rarities and b-sides, like The Beatles, Nirvana's rarer songs are better than most band's singles

  • @HokaYona Indeed

  • @HokaYona So true

  • why is it that so much people dis on nirvana even though they probably bought nevermind

  • @ThePunkjeff

    Resentment of how things ended....

  • best nirvana song ive heard

    and ive heard alot

  • @systemofachemicalnir what does that mean?

  • @JTsunshine i love nirvana i love alt rock i love grunge and i love this song

  • i often wonder how music would be affected today if kurt was still alive...

  • 4 people don't think their happy

  • /watch?v=jn1wxSuTZHQ

    Very fuckin alternative version!

  • sad + happy = sappy

  • @atuel2010 is that really true that sad+happy=sappy??

  • @utero94 yep :)

  • @atuel2010 Then I'm Sappy.....

  • @BlvrsNvrDThGrtstHts me too :S

  • @atuel2010 jaja I think everybody here is Sappy

  • @atuel2010 Holy shit!! Thats exactly what it is!!

  • @atuel2010 youre a smart cookie

  • I'm pretty sure its youre in a locked room.

  • @zakzero123 No...It's definitely laundry room. :]

  • @StantonJordan haha kurt really had some weird lyrics.

  • Kurt wrote this about his pet turtle.

  • way back 1994 verse chorus verse

  • Your in a laundry room.

  • i like this song... my favorite song... noooowwwwwww you're in loundry room, you're in loundry room, the true came to you ann.... And this solo then... I like

  • One of Cobain's best....Happy...Sappy.

  • I FRICKIN LOVE THIS!!!

  • in the mist kurt rises from the dead and kills the anti

  • Anyone Remember when this was Verse Chorus Verse Chorus, back when Napster was "illegal?"

  • That solo at 1:46 is straight filthy.

  • nowww ;P

  • who the fuck can write a song about a turtle and make it so fucking good?

    kurt cobain can, mother fucker

  • @trappedunderice24 A turtle? LOL It's about an abusive and controlling relationship. A fucking turtle hahahahahaha.....

  • @meph1975 dude calm down, is it that funny? did you read that on the internet and assume it's true? 'he' in the song is kurt, and the person he's talking about is his pet turtle which he kept in his laundry room. he thks the turtle might be sick, but he can't work out if is or if it's actually happy, so the songs called sappy. just my opinion, but if you look at it my way the lyrics make a hell of alot more sence compared to your definition haha. kurt can be pretty simple, don't dig too deep

  • @trappedunderice24 Seeing the song being about an abusive and controlling relationship is a lot simpler that making up some story about a friggin turtle. lol You're opinion is fine, I just don't see it. But to each their own.

  • @trappedunderice24 I actually like your theory that the lyrics were, at least in part, inspired by his pet turtles :) "He'll give you breathing holes, then you'll think you're happy/You're living in a laundry room" - It makes sense to me. I think that a lot of his lyrics were probably more about the people, places and things in his life than he cared to admit in interviews, but that's just my personal theory. I think I like the song even MORE now, regardless of whether it's true or not :)

  • @trappedunderice24 I like turtles

  • @trappedunderice24 never new it was about a turtle tuntill now and now that i think about it, it makes sence...

  • @trappedunderice24 I'm pretty sure it's a metaphor for overbearing personal relationships.

  • @Mextazectaces *whispers* shhh, let him dream, Mexazectaces, let him dream...

  • @trappedunderice24 This song isn't about a real turtle it's about an abusive relationship

    SIr if you want a good song about turtle, go take a look at Red Hot Chili Peppers Yertle the Turtle

  • @trappedunderice24 Its about death being in a jar/urn

  • @trappedunderice24 jajaja is true freaking awsome¡¡¡¡¡¡
