Print Page - Το Μωρό από το Εξώφυλλο του Nevermind Mηνύει τους Nirvana

:D :D ;D
Εντάξει, τραβηγμένο απ τα μαλλιά αλλά καλά κάνει για να πάρει όσα φράγκα μπορέσει. Ούτε ο ίδιος δε τα πιστεύει αυτά που λέει.
Με την ίδια λογική κι εμείς όλοι μπορούμε να κάνουμε μήνυση τους γονείς μας και τους κουμπάρους μας και τον παππά που μας βάφτισε ολόγυμνους μπροστά σε τόσο κόσμο να ουμε.
Και τα περί παιδικής πορνογραφίας αστεία. Σιγά να μη περίμεναν το εξώφυλλο του άλμπουμ για να δουν "γυμνό" όσοι αρρωστημένοι είναι του σπορ.
Επίσης δεν έγινε επιτυχία ο δίσκος από το εξώφυλλο που δεν είχε δει κανείς τότε, παρά μόνο αν πήγαινε να πάρει τον δίσκο στα δισκάδικα (που δεν υπήρχε παρά μέρες μετά, όσες ελάχιστες κόπιες ερχόταν εξαφανιζόταν άμεσα, επιτυχία έγινε γιατί το έπαιξε ο Dave Kendall του MTV στην Κυριακάτικη εκπομπή του MTV 120 (διάρκειας 120 λεπτών) στην οποία έβαζαν τα καλύτερα της Indie/ Alternative/ BritPop μέχρι και μερικά Rave. Μέχρι τότε δε τους ήξερε κανείς και ξαφνικά έπαθαν όλοι πλάκα με αυτό το πορωτικό κομμάτι και το πορωτικό βίντεο:

Music video

The music video for "Smells Like Teen Spirit" was the first for director Samuel Bayer. Bayer believed he was hired because his test reel was so poor the band anticipated his production would be "punk" and "not corporate".[24] The video is based on the concept of a school concert which ends in anarchy and riot, inspired by Jonathan Kaplan's 1979 film Over the Edge and the Ramones' film Rock 'n' Roll High School.[85] It had an estimated budget between $30,000 and $50,000.[86]

The video was filmed on August 17, 1991[87] on Stage 6 of GMT Studios in Culver City. The music video features Nirvana playing at a pep rally in a high school gym to an audience of apathetic students on bleachers, and cheerleaders wearing black dresses with the Circle-A anarchist symbol. The video features an appearance by Burton C. Bell, later known as frontman of heavy metal band Fear Factory.[88] Occasionally, the scene cuts to a janitor (played by Tony De La Rosa) wearing a navy blue jumpsuit and dancing with a push broom handle. The video ends with the students destroying the set and the band's gear. The discontent was genuine; the extras that filled the bleachers had been forced to stay seated through numerous replays of the song for an entire afternoon of filming. Cobain convinced Bayer to allow the extras to mosh, and the set became a scene of chaos. "Once the kids came out dancing they just said 'fuck you', because they were so tired of his shit throughout the day," Cobain said.[89] Cobain disliked Bayer's final edit and oversaw a re-edit of the video, creating the final version.[36] One of Cobain's major additions was the penultimate shot, a close-up of his face after it had been obscured for most of the video.[89] Another major change involved two sequences of a principal standing next to a loudspeaker and getting sprayed with confetti, and a teacher dressed like a nerd dancing to the song with a "Dunce" cap before being tied to a basketball hoop pole. Cobain had the principal's footage entirely removed as well as most of the teacher's footage, aside from the ending scene which shows the teacher tied to the pole as the janitor sweeps the floor nearby.[90] Bayer said that unlike subsequent artists he worked with, Cobain was not vain, and was more interested that "the video had something that was truly about what they were about".[85]

Like the song itself, the music video for "Smells Like Teen Spirit" received positive reviews. Rolling Stone writer David Fricke described the video as looking like "the greatest gig you could ever imagine".[24] In addition to a number-one placing in the singles category, "Teen Spirit" also topped the music video category in the Village Voice's 1991 "Pazz & Jop" poll.[91] The video won Nirvana the Best New Artist and Best Alternative Group awards at the 1992 MTV Video Music Awards,[92] and in 2000 the Guinness World Records named "Teen Spirit" the Most Played Video on MTV Europe.[93] In subsequent years Amy Finnerty, formerly of MTV's Programming department, claimed the video "changed the entire look of MTV" by giving them "a whole new generation to sell to".[24] Rolling Stone placed the music video for "Smells Like Teen Spirit" at number two on their 1993 list of "The 100 Top Music Videos".[94] MTV ranked the song's music video at number three on its "100 Greatest Music Videos Ever Made" list in 1999.[95] VH1 placed the debut of the "Teen Spirit" video at number eighteen on its 2000 list of "100 Greatest Rock & Roll Moments on TV", noting that it made alternative rock "a commercial and pop culture force".[96] In 2001, VH1 named it the fourth greatest videos.[97] The video was parodied in "Weird Al" Yankovic's music video for "Smells Like Nirvana"[98] and in Bob Sinclar's 2006 music video for "Rock This Party (Everybody Dance Now)".[citation needed] By December 25, 2019, the video had been viewed 1 billion times on YouTube.[99]

Κυριακή βράδυ το άκουσα στο MTV 120 Minutes, Δευτέρα πρωί ήμουν στο κασσετάδικο που υπήρχε έξω από το κυλικείο :P Στην κασσέτα ήταν κομμένο το εξώφυλλο λόγω διαστάσεων και δε φαινόταν καν το τσουτσουνάκι του τότε μωρού στην ασπρόμαυρη φωτοτυπία που είχαν στις κασσέτες. Πως κάνει έτσι αυτός μωρέ. Δεν τον είπε και κανείς μικροτσούτσουνο :D ;D Καλά κάνει και ας πάρει όσα μπορέσει ;)
