Compared to all the other fake hair metal and soft rock that was out at the time. This was like a color movie showing up when everything else was black and white. Still sounds great to me too, that song holds up, doesn't sound dated at all.

(several years before the Simpsons made it a meme). No one knew just what the hell had happened but it changed everything.

While this song got a bit overexposed, it's a fun jam and a good introduction to an absolutely iconic musical artist (Kurt Cobain)

    Some songs bring back VERY specific memories to me. This is one of them. This song came out in late 1991 and was a HUGE hit. It was my friend Keith's favorite song. We were both 27 yrs old at the time. The following 4th of July (1992), we all went to Keith's house for a BBQ. He lived on a quiet, private dirt road. He was married and had two small children. So after sundown, he went and did fireworks in the road for his kids to see. We were all on the yard in lawnchairs watching. Then some drunk driver, fleeing the police, came speeding down this private dirt road at about 80mph and hit and killed Keith. Right in front of us. Right in front of his children. As this was his favorite song, his widow had it played at his memorial service. So when I hear this song, it doesn't bring back any happy memories. It just makes me think of watching my friend Keith being killed.

    Don't you just love it when you come across a tune you've "kind of heard" for years, but don't know a thing about, then get to actually sit still and LISTEN to it? I'm 58 years old and have been a huge music fan since I was old enough to sit up on my own, and I still run into tunes like that on occasion (although it's becoming harder to do with each passing year.) That's one reason I love your channel and your videos so much. Not only are your reactions so real, but you genuinely enjoy the musical journey you're on. There are a ton of reaction channels out there, but you're #1 in my book because you look like you're having just as much fun as I am. I have an absolute blast watching you discover the music I love (I think I've watched your SRV reactions a hundred times apiece - easily 100 times apiece,) and kind of re-live that feeling of discovery through you. Keep doing what you're doing, and keep being you. Peace to you and yours, my friend, and may God bless you all.

    I was 10 years old when this song released. At the time I had only heard 80's pop and lite rock or adult contemporary that my mom listened to on the radio and thought that I just didn't like music. I didn't have a favorite song, I didn't like any bands, I didn't listen to anything. Until I changed schools and the bus driver played a rock station. Then I heard this song and it blew my little 10 year old mind. I didn't know music could sound like this and it influenced me greatly. After I heard this song, I began to listen to so much 90's rock and I found so many bands to love, all because of this song. (then 15-20 years later I would discover my dad's music and fall in love with classic rock once I was done being a teenager.)

    To really understand the impact of this song, you would have to go back in time to the days of MTV where rockers all had big huge hair and wore make up. Then, out of the blue, this shows up on MTV... Its not just the look, the sound was just as different and this song right here changed our society and our culture very quickly.

    After Kurt died, the drummer Dave went on to form and sing for The Foo Fighters. Definitely worth checking out. Hard to believe he stepped out from behind the drums to become one of the biggest rock stars in one of the biggest rock bands of our time. You’d think he was already a big enough legend for being in Nirvana, but he upped the ante.
