I found the Nirvana version of "Where did you sleep last night" at a karaoke bar one night. As one of my favorite songs ever done by Nirvana, I had to sing it. Afterwards I had an old woman come up to me and start telling me the history of the song, I had no clue it was song nearly as old as dinosaurs! What a beautiful song.

Part V - In the Pines... in 1990 Mark Lanegan and Kurt Cobain enregistered In the Pines, and the last lyrics were "shiver night through".... so, there's a bit of speculation in here. Please confirm the winding sheet album in case of doubt.

The video states he was withdrawing DURING the rehearsals, which is the reason they couldn't rehearse as much as they wanted to. I never stated he was withdrawing during the performance itself. There is literally a line in the video stating that "[w]ithout heroin or a suitable replacement, he wouldn't have been able to get through the performance at all" The question is whether he got heroin or Valium, as some of the people involved with the performance have said. No one is claiming he was sober.

Pines is an old term for coffins, think about that. And to a heroin addict "black girl" would be associated with black, which is a term for heroin. The heroin addicts have all the code words, black, gold, Jesus, cross, death, dirt, gun, fly etc. It's all about heroin, the cover of In Utero is a needle 💉, the lyrics to alot of the songs such as the real In Bloom lyric "Sell TO kids for food", are about Heroin. Man in the Box by AIC is about heroin, Jesus Christ is the junkie, the box, like the one found next to Cobain when he died, is a dope kit, "he who tries will be wasted" means getting high. H songs are freaking everywhere. 'Quicksand Jesus' by Skid Row, and on and on. Don't ever do junk, it's a destroyer of worlds.

Love had a hand in Kurt’s death.

You did an incredible job with this. This song hit hard already, but now my ears hear it in an even darker way. It’s not often I get goosebumps, but this performance does it every time

God, does anyone else find this heartbreaking? Great video tho

There’s a moment at the end of the song when the music stops, he opens his eyes and exhales before finishing…and you really can see the pain he’s in in that split second. He’s emotional, but he’s not enjoying playing. Very sad and powerful. I always get goosebumps. Now i gotta listen to it again. Great video, very thorough. I didn’t know all the backstory of the song. Btw, if you watch the rehearsal, you can see Kurt is very high on Heroin. He’s mostly sobered up by the time the performance started. Not really high, but not in withdrawal either… just normal. Layne from Alice In Chains is so SOOO high during their show… both slowly dying of addiction and high as hell, both of them gave one of the best albums ever. Nirvanas my favorite and unplugged might be my favorite album. Tied with incesticide. Great video

Kurt made this song his own. Haunting and beautiful, gives me chills. I miss him so much 😢

How does this only have 2k views? This is incredibly edited and spoken, so interesting. Thankyou.

I’m so thankful that I got to see them play October 18 1993 here in Phoenix, it was awesome and me and my friends snuck in. I was 14 and it’s an awesome memory 👍

This is truely an amazing mini-doc. You made this perfectly. I hadn't connected the meaning of the song to real life. This is awesome.

this was such a tragic and chilling story and you did a phenomenal job at telling it from the script to the editing of the video

Wow, Dude. This was really good and definitely deserves way more views. I'd like to see more vids like this. It would be interesting to see a video about Alice in Chains doing unplugged and more specifically about the song Nutshell. I think because of where Layne was in life, the song became more haunting. That or a video about Johnny Cash performing at Folsom Prison and explore what it was about Cash that made his performance feel authentic compared to other people who attempted the same thing. Great Video!

For a while i was never really a fan of live albums/songs (i have no idea why), but this Unplugged album easily became not only one of my favourite live albums, but ALBUMS ever - for the same reasons mentioned in this video; I think the track list is perfectly selected, and the performance is phenomenal.

You need to fact check. Nirvana rehearsed on the road while playing shows, there is a version of man who sold the world where kurt plays even better than mtv, that was done live on tour, they knew what they where doing. Kurt was having problems with herion but nothing a couple of vicadin won't curb for an hour to get by. Kurt also didn't arrange the set, a guy who had the vision kept asking kurt and kurt just didn't give a shit and kept saying yeah go for it, the only thing he really arranged was he chose that office chair over everything else that was offered lol

amazing video and i’m not the type to comment but wow amazing editing job and amazing analysis and i loved every second. thank you. ❤ Rest in Peace, Kurt. your name will never die.

hey man, nirvana historian here. Great video, but just a few little things I noticed. number 1 is that he was no longer suffering heroin withdrawal during performance. The MTV staff went out and scored oxycontin for him, and while they were out getting it, he scored some H himself. So he had plenty of opiates to prevent further withdrawal. But he WAS withdrawing earlier in the day. Also Nirvana's final release was actually, You Know You're Right, which wasn't OFFICIALLY released until 10 years after his passing, though it had been floating around in bootlegs for a while. I also think it's kinda funny how kurt says "lead bellies estate wants to sell me lead bellies guitar for 500 thousand dollars" when the guitar he's holding would later sell for 6 million lol loved the video bro!!

I’ve always thought that the last song they performed had some hints to infidelity on Courtney’s part I just never found a way to form it. You nailed it. Great history checks and bringing it back to the present. Thank you. You did a great job.

So many opinions you stated as facts.... I agree about Courtney, she was the worst thing that could've ever happened to Kurt! But, Nirvana performed several more times after this! Several! I loved Kurts take on this song, I loved how the whole band pulled the performance together. There are facts documented, for real that Kurt and MTV thought that maybe with the drum banging Dave acoustically he might not be able to keep his sound low enough...so 1 of the producers gave Dave a couple sets of specialized drum sticks. It made the difference. Also, it was Kurts idea for those specific flowers and black candles but when the set director asked him what he meant he replied "not sure, just my vision" so she asked him "you mean like a funeral or something" and Kurt smiled and said "yea kinda like that!" This performance that night showed the world who Kurt really was..what Nirvana was capable of. Heart and soul shined through the withdrawals, anxiety and nerves. They~Nirvana made history that night and were finally given the respect they'd always struggled for. Acceptance.. RIP Kurt ✌❤
