We passed upon the stairs We spoke of was and when Although I wasn't there He said I was his friend Which came as a surprise I spoke into his eyes I thought you died alone A long, long time ago Oh, no, not me We never lost control You're face to face With the man who sold the world I laughed and shook his hand And made my way back home I searched from form and land For years and years I roamed I gazed the gazeless stare We walked a millions hills I must have died alone A long, long time ago Who knows? Not me I never lost control You're face to face With the man who sold the world Who knows? Not me We never lost control You're face to face With the man who sold the world

A versão acústica da banda de grunge americana Nirvana foi gravada em 1993 durante sua aparição no programa MTV Unplugged.
A faixa foi posteriormente lançada no álbum MTV Unplugged in New York, que saiu no ano seguinte à gravação ao vivo.
Após a memorável apresentação acústica, a banda tocava a música regularmente em shows até a morte do vocalista Kurt Cobain em 1994.
A canção foi lançada como um single promocional do álbum e recebeu grande destaque nas rádios de rock alternativo.
O videoclipe entrou em rotação pesada em canais de música, como a própria MTV, impulsionando o alcance da versão do Nirvana.
O compositor original, David Bowie, chegou a reclamar de fãs que, ao vê-lo interprentar a música, diziam que era legal ele tocar uma "música do Nirvana".
