NIRVANA: Bleach [visual] Album
Here are some picks for a live and visual rendition of NIRVANA's first album. The songs are in the order as played on the album and the lyrics I got from NIRVANAclub.com.
BLEW
floyd the barber
Bell on door clanks - come on in
Floyd observes my hairy chin
Sit down [in the] chair, don't be afraid
Steamed hot towel on my face
I'm ashamed
Barney ties me to the chair
I can't see, I'm really scared
Floyd breathes hard, I hear a zip
Pee-Pee pressed against my lips
I was shamedI sense others in the room
Opie Aunt Bee, I presume
They take turns and cut me up
I die smothered in Andy's clutch
I was shamed
ABOUT A GIRL
I need an easy friend
I do with an ear to lend
I don't think you fit this shoe
I do won't you have a clue
I'll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night
Free
I do
I'm standing in your line
I do hope you have the time
I do pick a number too
I do keep a date with you
I'll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night
Free
I need an easy friend
I do with an ear to lend
I do think you fit this shoe
I do won't you have a clue
I'll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night
No, I can't see you every night
Free
I do ...

ALBUM VERSION
school
this is my choice song that "should have been" on Bleach. SPANK THRU!!! the first recording was recorded for the Illiteracy Will Prevail demo in December 1985 when the band was called "Fecal Matter". krist novoselic (NIRVANA's bassist) says it was the "first" NIRVANA song. the second is a 1988 release with chad channing on drums. and finally, a comparison of live recordings of SPANK THRU with chad on drums and then dave grohl (Nevermind, In Utero, Foo Fighters, etc). chad and dave are both amazing drummers.
And here are some early performances during BLEACH:
School | Floyd The Barber | Love Buzz | Dive | Polly | Big Cheese | Spank Thru | Scoff | About A Girl | Mr. Moustache | Paper Cuts | Negative Creep | Blew
School | Floyd The Barber | Love Buzz | Big Cheese | About A Girl | Sifting | Spank Thru | Dive | Polly | Negative Creep | Blew
BLEW
If you wouldn't mind, I would like it blew
If you wouldn't mind, I would like to lose
If you wouldn't care, I would like to leave
If you wouldn't mind, I would like to breathe
Is there another reason for your stain
Could you believe who we knew was stress or strain?
Here is another word that rhymes with shame
If you wouldn't mind, I would like it blew
If you wouldn't mind, I would like to lose
If you wouldn't care, I would like to leave
If you wouldn't mind, I would like to breathe
Is there another reason for your stain
Could you believe who we knew was stress or strain?
Here is another word that rhymes with shame
You could do anything

school
Won't you believe it
It's just my luck
No recess
Won't you believe it
It's just my luck
No recess
You're in high school again
No recess
LOVE BUZZ
Would you believe me when I tell you
You are the queen of my heart
Please don't deceive me when I hurt you
Just ain't the way it seems
Can you feel my love buzz?
Would you believe me when I do you
You are the queen of my heart
Please don't deceive me when I hurt you
Just ain't the way it seems
Can you feel my love buzz?
Paper CUTSWhen I'm feeling tired
She pushed food through the door
And I crawl towards the crack of light
Sometimes I can't find my way
Newspapers spread around
Soaking all that they can
A cleaning is due again
- a good hosing down
The lady whom I feel maternal love for
Cannot look me in the eyes
But I see hers and they are blue
And they cock and twitch and masturbate!
I said so
Nirvana
Black windows of paint
I scratched with my nails
I see others just like me
Why do they not try to escape?
They bring out the older ones
They point in my way
They come with a flash of light
And take my family away
And very later I have learned
To accept some friends of ridicule
My whole existence is for your amusement
And that is why I'm here with you!
To take
Me with
You're right

WILDERNESSSSSSSSS
One of my favorite Joy Divisions!!!
This is the live version of "wilderness".
CHECK OUT THAT INTRO BASS LINE!! AND GUITAR RIFF
It's rock. It's punk. It's new wave.
And it's dark.
He was a great dancer too. xauxauxau

LITHIUM demo
Here is the demo of Kurt's "Lithium".
He sings this version's verse vocals in a way of contemplation.
Almost like each word has a moment of afterthought.
The first-chorus vocals are strong and raw,
and the second-chorus vocals double the thrust.
It's authentic.
Chad's drumming complements and pounds.
And Krist's bass solidifies.
A reverb, or a type of delay, seems to be on the guitar track.
Same with the vocals. It parallels the Lithium-afterthought.
I love the fade-out ending!!! It has to be my favorite version!

Gogol Bordello
I like this guy, kinda. I first heard him on a video game commercial
but my friend from the Ukraine
introduced his music to me just recently.
GYPSY-PUNK?! you tell me
Some call it that.
For me, it's more like GYPSY-POP
Listening to "Start Wearing Purple" reminds me of every
"Gypsy-Jewish-like" tune I've ever heard in movies
based on the regions and those cultures.
It's catchy but not original. Sing any lyrics you choose with it
and you've done it!
[It's fun anyway]
Gogol Bordello - start wearing purple
