Nirvana - If You Must Lyrics

This is the song from the hilarious Radio Shack video

Those screams are worth the price of admission right there.

3:16 When theres no more choccy milk left in the fridge

Kurt: We Need A Better Drummer
Chad: *._. **0:01** - **0:06*

Kurt Cobain's tips to making a song:

1. Write some words
2. Make them rhyme

Wish Kurt never met Courtney we still would have him now and Nirvana

Great vid! If you gents decide to come back to Nirvana, check out either Very Ape or If You Must. I feel those songs get close to capturing what Nirvana was, in terms of lyrics, music and vibe.
PS. Kurt said that he hated If You Must. And that is true Nirvana! :-)

89 shits

Kurt hated his old slow songs (If you must, big long now, etc) and I really don't know why

that opening drum line has some serious dale crover vibes

Great Song, Great Band, One of the Greatest 3 person bands ever!!!

Best Kurt Screams if you ask me

I don't see why he didn't like it tho

The Shaggs, for that drum beat?

I will cover this song soon. Keep watching my channel where I have amazing Alice in Chains vocal covers.

I dont like to take ideas from "The Journals". I wonder why he felt this was evil like bon jovi & whitesnake? Why?

Plus de20ans quej'ecouteenvraifan , je neconnaissais pascettetrack qui a ete enregistré pendant nevermind vers 91. Mais en tout cas c'est un trais bel rnreqistrement,a posseder pour tout collectioneur qui ce respect....... Car use de differents ton musiquaux et de timbres de voies proprement realises donne un beau pannel de la voie de kurt quand il etat sobre et joyeux......... rest in peace mon freress, mesf freres ,e 1er mort apres avoir achete a un anglais qu'on avait jamais a d'autres soiress n'y aux notres. Sauf que leclient c'etait un pur un dure il avait la casquetttte de travers le regard saillant par la consommation deja realise sur d'autre transactions (en clair un mec qui etait avec ses potes 3 ou 4 voitures garee a chaque coin du tekos, Pour, cadriller le maximum de terrain et d'achateur potentiel.....) tout le monde savait ou ce disait entre nous les vrais, les racailles v'est de merde

Needs far more bass, would be the heaviest song ever if it was mixed better.

"I speak to hear my voice"
This song is for all those who want, a few days of fame criticizing and trying to go against the grunge, of Nirvana and Kurt

Its funny how kurt hated this song but it's absolutely one of my favorites

Brain Sault,head orz,physical mind and humor

woah bowser theme music alert

Underrated as hell song

The b- sides these lads had recorded would of made a fantastic LP. In my opinion.

1988? I thought it was 1990 and i have a 1987 tape of this

sound quality is great

Fuckyeah

Je retrouve mon adolescence ... Que je n’ai jamais vraiment quittée

only proves how talented kurt was.....to not like this song! GENIUS

..got 'em .....lolz

btw #astronomy

Click clack

Did anyone else first hear this on Outcesticide? I ordered it through Guitar World back in the day. It was like $25 and came on a burned cd with a photocopied label. But this song, there’s something so powerful about it, like every bad thing that happens in your adolescence channeled into one song.

Anime, Dire Straits, Dire Straits...

Dave Grohl may have been one of the most underrated drummers... Every song he just brings it.. Especially on Incesticide, and Bleach

Also dave did not drum on bleach Chad Channing did

@Novaneal fuck.. yeah you're right... i totally forgot about him.. just like the rock n roll hall of fame.. lol

any way dave is still an amazing drummer

@Justin Poole agreed

Старая Добрая Нирвана

Kurt may have not liked this song, but it’s still my favorite Nirvana song.

bleach lml

My all time favorite Nirvana track!!
🤘👽🤘

i wonder what kurt cobain smelled like

Im so sick of people with Nirvana t shirts that don't even listen to the music. Its wrong.

This song is 32 years old

1:22
"Anime!"

musica fodaaaaaaaaaa

I can't decide which Nirvana song is my favorite :(( They're all my favorite!

i've been listening to nirvana since 2013. suck on that newbies

soundeagle

loL

been listening to nirvana since 91

suck on that you 'newbie'

This track was always great. Nothing like what he was self criticizing.

song its veri goooooooooooooooooooooooooooood

HE SOUNDS JUST LIKE JACK FROM THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE HALLOWEEN KINDA CREEPY

Also, I feel like Junkyard should have been on bleach somewhere, it was stronger ( my phone tried to say stroganoff) but I guess it didn't flow. There are a couple weak songs but, I guess they fit in sequence. Sifting should have been cut

This should have been the first song on bleach, just my opinion. They knew what they had and chose what they did

think if you heard this on some TV series. if they used it as score. take you to credits. it would be better than 95% of the indie music they use now.

insomnia-niil?

The guy in the back KINDA looks like Dave Grohl. Only kinda..

Amanda Sheep he's actually the singer for Nickleback

I've been a hardcore nirvana fan for many years and this song is awesome damn Kurt u had talent 🙄

Its my attitude -
☝
🔊🎵🎵🎵🎸🎛

Can totally see why would he hated it..

Holy shit I remember that part of _Journals._

Shit any of kurts music was nothing short of a master piece

2:35
Just this.

Agree 100% bleach closer

To me it has all the perfect elements of the nirvana formula i always come back to this song

Yeah I agree. Wouldve been great on Bleach.

Kurt didn't like it? Who said that????Seriously such a satisfying song.....!!!! GGGGGGGARRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!

Thanks again Daniel

It's amazing that this dude is the same dude that did Unplugged. So much range.

Angry Beard Man yeah, he was a great musician.

My favorite song. Morning Soundtrack and I'm using this for my workout music

There's a live recording of this on youtube somewhere where they play this in a RadioShack

Heavy!!! He didt like it Cuz it was to heavy, not enough poppy

How do we go from a song like this to the shit Cardi B puts out

I throw things at Jews listening to this

You are Ignorant. But then again ur Kidding

Cindy Urena you are very correct on both accounts

1988 folks. Wrap your best scream around that. It still won't touch it.
Is it me or my Ego?

Thanks! Why I have never heard this song before today...

If Kurt got lost in a Jungle somewhere .. lol

This song sound like metal stuff to me, as whole bleach

Write some words make them rythme thesis or storyline? Set the mood, something new, is it me? Or my attitude?

You’re just an idea

I see what he meen he hated this song to much reality in the words n me I wouldn't say

Absolutely incredible song

I don't know if it's quite finished but it's fucking amazing.

so far ahead of its time then... NOSIMEAN!

*I bet kurt loved this song*

I like the tracks where Kurt explodes

Suena como Alice In Chains :o

Was it ahead of it's time - or are we just catching up?
Love Dave and Co. , but Poo Fighting is not even close.

This was always one of my favs from the boxset!!

I can see why it didn't make the cut

DALE CROVER IN DRUMS!!

That scream at 3:15 Is exactly how I feel

Only 404K watchs...

I think he didn't like this song because the lyrics are too personal and honest to him.

For some reason Everytime I hear this song I think of Cry Of Fear

why 43 dislikes

Solo un verdadero fan le gusta este tema tan desgarradora la voz

Why haven’t I listened to this earlier ? It’s like bleach and kinda incesticide

The guitar and drums in the harder parts of the song remind me so much of Black Sabbath
