Smells Like Teen Spirit was a strange case, it was never thought to be the hit. DGC released it as the first single more as hype for Come as You Are, which they predicted was going to be the big smash hit and SLTS would just be the appetizer to the main course.

I am guessing you mean Rick Beato, and his series What Makes This Song Great, where he looks at a song and breaks it down. That one was pretty decent.

I preferred the one he did on Heart-Shaped Box

If it were just the guitar hook it would transcend
If it were just the vocals it would transcend
It it were just the lyrics in the form of a poem it would transcend

Two seconds into that song and it is game over. Game the **** over.

Then from the first line “load up on guns...”

It’s the ****ing anthem. It’s the ****ing genius. It’s bigger than the sum of its parts. It’s bigger than Nirvana. It’s bigger than Kurt’s suicide. It’s pure energy. Perfectly defines a time and place and is eternal.
ok gen-x-er

The influence of this on post-punk (and the 80's in general) can't be understated.
