The siiiiickest performance that night hands down

Kurt would have fucking hated this. That pro shot to the fake audience looking like they thought they new what Nirvana was about. I don't blame Dave Pat and Krist. Just what happens with aging and what they changed as young musicians.

Tab porfavor

I would have preferred it if she had sung it in the original key. But hey, when Sonic Youth cover your songs it is always going to be a bit different and Kim definitely captured the essence of Kurt's energy, pain and passion

she's 61 in this. Yet that voice is just amazing

YESswSS

People talking about Pat, who is a legend but Kim Gordon was Kurt's idol. Nirvana fans are very sexist, kind of people Kurt hated.

True artists never try to replicate the original. They make it their own. And that's what we love about them. Thank you, Kim. You killed it and Kurt would've appreciated it :D

90% of that audience is fkin numb!!!!! Literally can not move

Sonic nirvana

Kim Gordon is the only woman that sounds like she's got a fist fight going on in her throat, and its freaking awesome!

Think she's had an aneurysm, but kurt liked her but horrible vocals, she captured Kurt's energy

People were saying in the comments of teen spirit with Joan Jett that Kurt would’ve loved her singing it but I personally think he would’ve loved this more

Hated this when it aired, love it now. What happened to me

Herculean. ♥️ Pat on guitar. Pat looks so, so ecstatic . And I always prefer Dave on drums. ♥️ Kim Gordon, iconic cool. See you soon on the East Coast.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Cannot stop replaying this for the scream. Bow to the queen of punk.

<3

Smear 🔥🎸

I love Nirvana, and I love Sonic Youth even more. Having said that, I dont understand where all the praise is coming from...every song they played at this performance just sounded straight up bad. The guy from Deer Tick was a FAR better fit.

Kim + Nirvana = Nirvana (absolutely nailed the feel)

First time seeing this, as referenced in today's NYT piece on Kim's most recent solo record and it's one of the best things I've seen online in quite a long time. Just brilliant.

What da fck

I 100000% forgot this existed.

Awesome ..

Can we please all bow to THAT DRESS? She wore a similar dress to the one she wore to the tour with Nirvana. Kurt would have loved a woman replacing him, especially such a close friend and such a great person and musician.

Can I get rid of her voice She sounds like crap band sounds great

always come back to this - Kim Gordon did so so good. really captured Nirvana. Kurt would’ve loved it.

TOLGOIGOO SAVAAC TENEG ALUUUDAAAAA RAAHHHHHHHHH

Great song, awful singer out of tone

Nobody talking about that retched, disgusting, putrid, rancid singing?

Somebody has changed Pat’s guitar mistake on 2nd chapter 🎉

Pat ate

If Courtney isn’t guilty of anything, regarding Kurt’s death, it seems like she should be up there in Kim Gordon‘s place. j/s

Joan Jett, St.Vincent, but it takes a gen Xer Like Kim Gordon to do it right.

Well.. this rendition, when i actually hear the lyrical intention, . Makes me wonder. ? Kurt. In that much pain. Courtney an enabler. The times were chaotic however not like now. Best part is their daughter 🙂

Thank you uploading man... I love how they used to sound

Her voice is so crack, sloppy too :))

Wtf

This is the single greatest HoF performance of them all. Ferocious, fearless and fucking monumental. Kurt would have loved it.

What a perfect person to cover this song.

God, she rules. I don’t even care that she didn’t sing a note of this on key. She brought the energy and spirit of Nirvana with this performance.

Another disaster, not even close to the original

this fuckin rocked

❤

Absolutely awful

Superamazing...Hardcoreversionofteenagekicks?

This woman... She is just perfect, in her imperfection. I could not choose a better singer for this song, she not only nailed it, she even added her soul on it.

This is nirvana's spirit! Kim did it and understood it
