The beginning of "Grunge." When Nirvana performed this song on Saturday Night Live, that was the death of the 80's hair bands. They were buried.

80's hair bands had a 10 year reign on the charts, it was time for something new. At this point rock was on it's way out anyway, with rap starting to take over the charts. I do not even think grunge lasted as long as disco. People can only take so much of self loathing and being depressed and miserable all the time.

I still get chills when I hear " With the lights out". Such a powerful song. I was a teenager in the 70's and had given up on Rock music by the mid 80's (hair-metal was not my thing). This woke me right up. I love how the solo is just the melody of the song. Went out and got the album as soon as I found out who it was. I was in my early/mid 30's. My wife couldn't stand them! The marriage didn't last, but my love for Nirvana has...
One thing I loved about Kurt was his use of sarcasm. 90s was definitely the decade of sarcasm lol.

@@Hexon66 It was never called hair rock or hair bands at the time. That was a name given around a decade later. I know, because I’m from that time. That’s why I purposely avoided calling it that.

Kurt often mocked the industry. He proved his point with this song.

This song isn't really about the industry. "Often asked to explain the meaning of the song that made him a household name, Cobain generally acknowledged that it was meant to be a call to arms. "It has revolutionary themes, but I don't really mean it in a militant [light]," he said in a fall 1991 interview. "The generation's apathy is getting out of hand. [I'm] pleading to the kids, 'Wake up!'"

He began refusing to play "Smells Like Teen Spirit" live, or "purposefully performing it sloppily, just to mess with the audiences he cynically saw as flocking to Nirvana shows just to hear that song while it was flavour of the month," Al Horner wrote for NME

This song changed the music industry and popular culture.
The phrase "smells like teen spirit" had been scrawled on the wall of his apartment by Katherine Hanna, the lead singer of the band Bikini Kill. Hanna wrote this as a joke because her bandmate Tobi Vail, who happened to be Cobain's girlfriend at the time, was a fan of the Teen Spirit deodorant.

I was 18 & it changed my life. Hair rock died & this spoke. It was more real then parties & girls.
I always perceived the line "With the lights out, its less dangerous" - as being about anonymity, the self-permission to act without fear of repercussion
I actually seen the first time they played this on MTV on accident late one night after coming home from the club next day I was telling everyone you got to hear this band Nirvana
They changed rock. Their sound was so groundbreaking.
Look how young Dave Groll looks in these photos. They were just kids, amazing!
"Oh well,whatever, never mind* NEVERMIND is the name of the album.

This song will live forever, no doubt! 🔥
Exactly! I would also add, in regards to symbolism, on the cheerleaders shirts you'll see the symbol for anarchy; which, sums up teen spirits, the 90s and the Grunge Movement...
The song that killed "Hair Rock" of the 80s & I couldn't have been ducking happier about it.
I miss the 90's,Good Times and Great Music!!
Nirvana come as you are and heart shaped box
It was the ultimate feel reckless, feel sexy/feel ugly, feel invincible, feel invisible, opposite - opposite - opposite confusion of teenager-hood.
This song came out in 1992 and it changed my generation. Generation X got their voice heard and it gave us hope.
My husband was in a metal band at the time, just got done laying tracks, soon as they heard nirvana, metal was dead , grunge just took over .
Was in HS when this came out! Man ...feel old. lol Rap, grunge, punk, alt rock was blowing up in the early '90s. Kinda killed off the corny '80s hair bands. Most of us (GenX) were coming of age.
It feels like this song is about young angst and pain. Teens feeling awkward and misunderstood- like untouchables. It’s how I felt in my family.
Nirvana changed my life!🤘
Rest in peace Kurt, never forgotten
More Nirvana!! My fav band when I was in high school
This song is absolutely forever! I'm 22 and a mother! Raised my boys on this! Poetry and angst!!
I was 30 when this album came out. Very powerful. I think it shot me right back into puberty.
Please react to Nirvana live...its a whole new experience. One of the greatest live proformers of all time
The Nevermind album is a classic. Drain You is a great cut too
I've always liked this song since the first time i heard it. The former drummer for nirvana went on to form and be the front man for the foo fighters check them outif you haven't and jay z quoted some of the lyrics from smells like teen spirit in one of his songs. he said that when he heard it he knew it was big and would change the course of music for awhile and that it stopped the rise of hip hop for awhile. R.I.P kurt cobain🙏
OH HELL YES....He kicked the door open for grunge and brought Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam and SoundGarden with him......this is the ones who CHANGED IT ALL into the grunge scene...I remember it like yesterday....this song and NIRVANA took over ...overnight!!!! He spoke for generation X better than anyone did.

Billy Corgan from the smashing pumpkins said it best. Kurt Cobain was an assassin with his music. He wrote songs that are timeless. They spoke to a generation and beyond.
Dave G on the drums is awesome.
Gotta love the energy and lyrics of this song. RIP KC
The Smell of Teen Spirit spoke to every teenager in the 90’s! Thank you Kurt for creating an awesome free spirited song. R.I.P Kurt Cobain. Freakin genius!!
The drummer is Dave Grohl and he's the lead singer of Foo Fighters who were just inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame...check out their songs Everlong and The Pretender
They were incredible live, especially when playing this live!! Kurt’s whole body went rigid with tension/power........he put his all into the music
Lots of songs on the Nevermind album you need to check out, Drain you, In Bloom, Lithium, Polly, On a Plain, Something in the Way, there really isn't a bad song on the album!
The drummer for nirvana is dave grohl and he is and has been the lead singer for the band foo fighters, who are also a great band!
The best tribute to the Pixies ever written. ;)
Now do "Smells like Nirvana", Weird Al! HILARIOUS!
understanding the lyrics is more entertaining and yall are awesome
I like the fact that you guys don’t stick to one genre of music. You are equal opportunity listeners. I appreciate and love that about you ❤️
You guys are great because you actually read & listen to the advice in the comments! Just hit the sub button mainly because of that & hope you continue to do lyric versions as they really do help you catch what most miss the first few times they hear a great song like this!
Something in the way is a great song its about Heroin, very haunting song!
Foo Fighters, Dave Grolls( who was a drummer for Nirvana) continued tradition, check them out.
This came out my freshman year... the 90's were so much fun!
Kurt's nickname was mosquito, and the albino, etc. are friends in a group from childhood.
At 15 we used to live in an apartment. When my parents went to bed, I used to jump out the balcony, go to the club until it closed at 3 am, then climb back up and into my room, back to bed and be up for breakfast with the family like nothing happened.
You guys are great, watching and listening to all types and forms of music, FOR music. God bless you both.
Nirvana paved the way for grunge music❤ Miss Kurt❤😢
Listening to this song always brings a smile on my face ……. Tks Nirvana
Pleeez do Lithium...lyric version of teen spirit was a great call.....guys when this song broke.....was nothing good but GnR and Metallica...the rest was 80s hair bands....this song alone put em all out of work except for the two I just mentioned ...FACTS, and you can see how it and their style just came from left field out of nowhere compared to what was hot at the time

Underrated bar.. "I'm worst at what I do best..And for this gift, I feel blessed" 🔥🔥 I do so many other things but thank you!! 💯
Kurt Cobain was an amazing songwriter. That bass line is killer too. I think BJ loves the power in this song and I think he loves the guitar solos. Maybe he should pick up a guitar??
RIP Kurt, and thank you sir
Greatest song ever,
Please do Drain You. "Cobain cited "Drain You" as one of his favorite compositions, telling David Fricke in a 1993 Rolling Stone interview that he thought it was as good, if not better, than the band's biggest hit, "Smells Like Teen Spirit. I love the lyrics, and I never get tired of playing it," he said. "Maybe if it was as big as 'Teen Spirit', I wouldn’t like it as much." I suggest the Nevermind version first. Then watch it live at the mtv studio (kurt has red hair), and then in Paradiso, Amsterdam (the drummer breaks his stick during the song and swaps it mid song)
Love you two! So addicted to your reactions.
It gets Better the louder you play it. 🎵🎵🎵 Great song. Epic.

It's an ironic title. Dark band. Cobain died at age 27. Beginning of Grunge rock. Seattle
Hi you two, Kurt loved the Musical way of Soft - Loud - Soft style and the song, most likely, came from a wall where a girl wrote "Kurt smells like Teen Spirit", you should do the video in a school gym, and RIP Kurt
Nirvana, "You know you right" "Heart shaped box"
Glad you love that song!👍
You need to see the video. We never had cheer leaders like that at my high school.
This song was always number one in MTV top 100 all time every year thru the 90's
I was in foster care as a teenager, so there are tooooo many "Bad Kid" stories. lol
I'm not saying teenagers are stupid, absolutely not, but these lyrics could easily just be random thoughts from one of those 🤣 And I think that is exactly what Kurt went for.
I'll say it, there's a reason there's a saying young and stupid. We all were young and stupid once. Just meaning that teens haven't had alot of life experience yet, not that they're not intelligent. And that is some of the most tumultuous, emotional, fun, expressive times of our lives, especially w music. Another great song!
this song will forever give me goosebumps

I read it as mulatto (neither this nor that), albino (the absence of, apart from the rest), mosquito my libido (as in, my libido is tiny). All just expressions of alienation. That may just be me tho.

The biggest band in the U.K. in the 90s was Oasis. They had a huge cultural impact, not in the same grunge way, but start with their most popular song in america called ‘Wonderwall’. Keep up the great reactions 👍
