YMMV / MTV Unplugged in New York

---

• Awesome Music: It's Nirvana, so every bit of it. But the best one is "Where Did You Sleep Last Night?".
• Covered Up: The covers of David Bowie's "The Man Who Sold the World" and Lead Belly's "In the Pines" as "Where Did You Sleep Last Night?" are the best known versions. Bowie himself expressed annoyance with this, though he considered the cover itself a huge honor.
• Harsher in Hindsight: Read down to Nightmare Fuel. Then remember that this would air after Kurt Cobain committed suicide.
• Memetic Mutation: Kurt's green sweater is arguably one, if not especially the final shots of "Where Did You Sleep Last Night" where Kurt has his eyes closed and then opening before he belts out the last note.
• Nightmare Fuel: The entire atmosphere of the concert: candles and stuff was intentional. Kurt wanted it to look like "a funeral".
