Go to YouTube. Search “Nirvana Reading 1992 Smells Teen Spirit”. Watch the first 30 seconds and you’ll see where Kurt borrowed the cords. He jokes about it.

Hint: “More than a feeeeling!!!”

Edit: by the way, the Reading 92 show is one of the all time great rock recordings. There is no denying Kurt and companies brilliance.

Definitely check out the opening. Kurt was “reportedly” near death due to heroin (which was true) and Nirvana was “reportedly” gonna cancel the gig, so Kurt played along and entered the stage in a wheelchair. Incredible!!!

2nd edit: Yes that is a wig. Why wouldn’t Kurt wear a wig with his hospital gown?

Ah okay, I found the "More than a feeling" reference/sample. The songs sound very similar in the way the notes were played. Thanks for letting me know!
