Cool little known fact the guitar used for the unplugged show is the highest selling guitar ever sold at auction it sold for 6 million and the cardigan sweater he wore sold for $250k

Giving the proper headphones to his friend, i respect that.

A reaction to the whole performance would be awesome. But yeah as a 41 yr old dude, that breath and stare at the end of Where Did You Sleep Last Night affected an entire generation of music lovers.

Alex: Have you heard this song? Everyone in Unison: Have I heard All Apologies by NIRVANA?!?!! 😂💚

Kurt Cobain was ahead of the curve. I remember watching that live on TV. I was so excited. I was glued to the TV. Unplugged was an institution. This particular unplugged is one of the most perfect performances ever! Also, Kurt designed the set from the first lily to the last light. Just a fun fact. And yes, that’s Dave Grohl. It’s where he started.

Through all his demons he was brilliant, the whole band was.

Ohh yes we need more reactions with "the other Alex"! You two vibe off each other well.. from the look he gives you over the Marilyn comment and the priceless reaction to the Grohl comment...I have a feeling y'all are pretty entertaining....😆 btw...I'm going to completely embrace the delusion you were trolling about Dave Grohl... because...well, I'm older than both of you and it's gonna help me sleep better at night. 😂😜

Whatever opinion you have about courtney, I also think Hole's mtv unplugged is worth from start to finish.

This was a fun one. Alex "Anthony Kiedis" Koby is such a treat to watch, you both are. My man's had a full on existential crisis when you said he was almost 40 😆😆😆 talm 'bout 👁👄👁 I do agree with him though... while I know you've seen quite a few of the songs performed, thos whole set start to finish is an experience (and I own it on DVD too, so I guess I'm older than George Burns as well). The look he gave you after the Dave Grohl question was priceless.... BUT... it took me until like 10th grade to make that connection so... everyone learns at their own pace. Hope your neck feels better, a stiff neck is no bueno. Also... now that HE showed you NIRVANA... maybe Koby should get some... takos... you know, with a banana, cheese, chocolate syrup, and some ketchup... topped with a bagel.... 😉😏

Did Alex K2 chop his hair off? Y’all crack me UP! Love it and LOVE some Nirvana!

"Have I heard 'All Apologies' by Nirvana?" eyes conveying the ridiculousness of the question. I love it. The look of Dave Grohl confusion! Nirvana Unplugged in New York is hands down the best album released in the 1990s live or otherwise

I believe this is a song message to his daughter. The album this song is from is called “In Utero”; which means this whole album was dedicated to his child. In this song he’s apologizing for all of the mess ups he has done and (in his own right) wishes he could be as innocent as her. Hence the lyrics “I wish I was like you; Easily amused.” You gotta hand it to Kurt for admitting his faults and wishes he could be better. That takes legit gonads to admit.

Dave is precious adorable crazy talented (Prince covered "best of you!") And he cooks a pretty mean brisket. 😂

I remember seeing the original airing of this unplugged. I had plans that night, and didn't go. I was in awe, and sat on my couch, jaw on the floor, and watched it instead!

I saw Nirvana live in concert in 1993. It was a small venue. So it was like you were right there on stage with them. Best concert ever...

This song and video still gives me chill small these years later the pain on voice can be clearly hear Kurt was in a deep depression here he designed the stage said he wanted it to look like his funeral he died not to long after this

How have you not seen this.?? The whole unplugged session is gold!

Such a beautiful artist and singer Wish kurt was here to witness how he is still appreciated still to this day.

Have I heard all apologies by nirvana? They're on!

That was the funniest reaction video I've seen! Not sure who the guy with you is but he's swag as fuck and you two work well together. You should do them together more often. 🤟🏼🔥

100% this whole set is one of the greatest unplugged performances of all time, absolutely amazing when watched nonstop from start to finish

Please react more with Bonus Alex, he was awesome! (His reaction to you finding out Dave Grohl is the drummer was priceless🤣) And he’s right you should definitely watch Nirvana’s entire Unplugged show.

Seen these guys live, Portland Meadows back in the early 90's (Portland Oregon)

Your friend should be in more videos he's cool

I've just finished binging like 10 of these on a call in to work day and realized how young you are. I now feel obligated to suggest things I haven't yet seen on here, if for no other reason than the betterment of humanity and the future of the planet. Chevelle, 10 Years After, Concrete Blonde, Temple of the Dog, STP, Primative Radio Gods, I gotta' find the recommendations area...

His voice was so shredded during this performance. They almost cancelled this due his voice being strained from their massive touring schedule. They didn't and it gave us this unforgettable sound.

Kurt adored his little sister and I would assume since she's a lesbian their relationship inspired his acceptance and support for the LGBTQ community and he even said as much in one of their shows when before they stared playing he said if there's anyone here who doesn't like black people or gay people get the fuck out!!

You should have your “dad” with you more often! He could school you in while you watch.

That dude looks A LOT like FRANK GRILLO. 😍YUMMY!

I love that "dad" is looking at you that way because of all the legal shit marilyn manson is in right now. You should research it.

I need more of this Alex, too.

The blank stare and shouting here man 1:29

The first time the "dad" heard this song he probably listened 5 times on a loop on a Walkman without a break, cut to the next generation, can't make it through 25 seconds without pausing, this psychologically is super interesting in 2 generations

I love nirvana plz do more

The guitarist looks like one of the guitarists in the Foo Fighters

Definitely do a live of this whole recording and Alice in chains unplugged (one of the greatest performances ever recorded)

You should check out some MELVINS. They're responsible for Nirvana. One of Kurt's biggest influences. And the guys who introduced Nirvana to Dave Grohl when they needed a drummer. Also. The melvins drummer was the original nirvana drummer

You need to react some live Nirvana video, for example live&loud Seattle 93, or Reading 92.

No way that's your dad!

This is grundge soul at it's greatest. Kurt understood pain.Kurt understood love. Kurt understood disappointment. Kurt understood the human condition .Nirvana translated it all.

This concert cemented the unplugged concept

wow. this is a good song and it sounds amazing here.😌 Keep being awesome😁

The producers said this was their favorite Unplugged performance. Nirvana unplugged from their own music and did a ton of covers

Dad's adorable, of course you have awesome friends 💚🤘✨

Alex needs to bring Another Alex more often to these reactions to teach Alex about metal scene! This was good!

He was what? Like 10 when this song hit? 😂😂😂 I was 17...and the "In Utero' album was our Anthem! The 80s and early 90s produced THE BEST music period...GEN X ROCKED!

I agree with ya boy, old man Alex. It's a classic. IDK about owning a DVD tho, let alone an actual DVD player. That's... classic in a different way.

That guitar went for the most a guitar has ever gone for in auction history. Like 6 mill or something crazy.

I've mentioned about Dave Grohl in comments to a past freshly uploaded Foo Fighters reaction video by joking, "He's the drummer?? (of Nirvana)." I'm surprised by this reaction or that enough people haven't commented about his past for you to take notice.

Hey Alex really enjoy your reactions especially to my favorite band metallica keep up the great work dave London ontario Canada 🇨🇦 👍

Best MTV unplugged ever 👊😎

Liking the new delivery of content.

"I own this on DVD" - That's the difference between where we were with music and where we are now with music streaming. I get the convenience thing but....

You need to watch the entire show! It is in my opinion the best overall Unplugged show of any artist. The pain and emotion is right there with Eddie and Layne.

no offense to Nirvana but Robert Palmer kicks ass too 🤘

nice weezer at the beginning XD👍

It finally hit me today who you remind me of!!!! Edward Snowden 😆 anyway love your channel. Luv from Australia 🇦🇺

Being from near Seattle, growing up with this band and all the others that came out in the 80s , they played Nirvana too much on the radio at the time that I got sick of them , but I had what I felt was a lot better options to choose from like Alice In Chains, Queensryche, Pearl Jam, Sound Garden
