Why doesn't anyone know about or mention "You Know

>>75121217
I like that song and it has a lot of views on youtube

>>75121217
You know you're wrong, mate.

>>75121217
honestly one of my favorites by them

>>75121217
It's weird listening to You Know You're Right and then listening to Kurt's Fecal matter material.

it came out way too late after the fact, so it was basically doomed to be fan service instead of a hit with mass popularity

also, the way they released it was such a lame cash grab, and yes i did buy that greatest hits

>>75121289

not familiar with them. explain

>>75121311
Kurt was the godfather of sludge punk go listen to Bambi Slaughter by Fecal Matter it's Kurt and Dale Crover

it sounds like Sober by Tool

That song got played all the time in 2002. It's not a bad song but it's pretty forgettable.

>>75121217
Because it was released in 2002. The zeitgeist hadn't quite hit peak yet.

It's a wonderful song.

When I first heard this song I was just getting to know Nirvana as a 12 year old and I immediately assumed it must have been a big hit just because of memorable the HEEEEEEEEEYEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYEEEEEAAAAAAAAYEEAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH was.

>>75121327
meh. might not have been the right song. heavy bassline throughout and yeeeaaaah?

>>75121327
>sludge punk
that's black flag and the melvins

>>75121308
>it was basically doomed to be fan service instead of a hit with mass popularity
>#45 on Hot 100
>#43 on Radio Songs
>#1 on Mainstream Rock radio
>#1 on Alternative Rock radio

>>75121289
Why is it weird?
Because you don't listen to any artists who evolve later in their careers?

>>75121308
Are you high? You Know You're Right got huge radio play, so did Aneurysm.

>>75121338
Wtf not even close?

>>75121327
this borders on death metal at times

the things you both mention only reinforce my point. note how well they did in the rock charts/radio (ie a huge group of mostly Nirvana fans), and how comparatively mediocre the overall success was on the pop charts. and this was with a lot of airplay and retail push.

the point i was making was that it didn't get the broader popular appeal of Nirvana in their primes, don't know why that's so hard to pick up on.

Why do the pop charts matter?
It isn't a pop song?

>>75121916
nirvana are a pop band they use pop chords and verse chorus verse. They just added some noisey elements and circuit bent their pedals.

>>75121943
I could write a horrendous song with pop chords and put it in verse chorus verse. Those two things to not dictate the genre a song / band is.

>>75121648
the vocal absolutely does

>>75121916
By "pop charts" I'm referring to something like the Billboard Hot 100 listed above, sorry if that stirred some semantic confusion. it's a common generic term as far as i know it.

Yes, Nirvana is not a "pop" band. but at point in time they were arguably the most popular band, extending beyond the rock audience into a more general one, and this songs release did not match that level of success.

>>75121217

Overproduced frankenstein of a song engineered from a dozen works in progress.

You have to be mentally retarded to believe kurt et. al. wrote a song in 92 that sounded exactly like the other pop bullshit on the radio in 2002.

>>75121628
I listen to plenty it's just weird to see the direction Cobain was going in and where he started.

>>75122004
.....yes it does.

>>75121943
>circuit bent their pedals
this is weak bait
