Episode Details

In 1995, Hole stunned MTV Unplugged with a raw, emotional set packed with hits from Live Through This, plus surprise covers—including two haunting songs penned by Kurt Cobain, one of which became the epicenter of a legal battle. You Know You’re Right, Nirvana’s final recorded track, was written during a dark, chaotic year for the band, with Cobain battling addiction and creative stagnation. The song’s haunting beauty, described by Dave Grohl as “disturbing,” was recorded in a single take on January 30, 1994, before Kurt’s death. When Courtney Love sued Grohl and Novoselic in 2001 over its release, the dispute revealed deeper tensions: Love wanted it on a greatest hits album for maximum commercial impact, while the band pushed for a box set. The song’s legacy? A haunting reminder of Nirvana’s final moments—and the power of music to outlive its creator.
