Seen this song selling in Pasa Malam. it supposed to be banned , correct?
Nice song though. Love it listening to it now.Woo, brings back the good days of Grunge musik````

For those who have never heard of Kurt Cobain, He was the greatest grunge singer-song writer-musician to have graced this earth. Rock's last great star . poster boy for the punk-metal hybrid known as 'grunge'. Nirvana, a power trio, had broken through with the incendiary anthem 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' . The album the track was taken from, Nevermind, had sold millions of copies in 1991.

Even though he committed suicide in 1994, there are still books and news about him. Google for sites.

Grunge is alive and it smells like teen spirit.

I bought all their bootlegs when i was still schooling...not cheap....becos it is imported and not official release, i pay up to $32 for a CD that may contain 6 songs, sometimes unreleased or their very first demos.....

I love Nirvana. They are never the best musicians you can find. Kurt once said that he uses lousy korean guitars during his live shows becos he can trash as many as he wants. He also said that he never likes to tune his guitar during his shows. But Kurt writes mean lyrics. I have yet to find a lyricist that convey his tots as well as Kurt does. The emotions he brings out thru his songs and his words.

Nirvana signals the the rise of GRUNGE and with Kurt's death, GRUNGE died. Grunge was never about the music. Grunge was about the attitude and doing things for ourselves. Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam once said something like that during the era where Grunge was at its peak "These young people look at us (nirvana and the other grunge bands) as role models but we hate it. We never wanted to be that"

In the end, Kurt died becos he is caught in between being famous and his refusal to be famous. His fame is the direct contradiction of what Grunge was all about. But he is great. He will always be great and I will always remember him as a music hero who shaped my life.

8 April 1994 - The day the world lost a genuine hero.

Should I curse or bless him? Nirvana was the band at the turn of the begining of 90's to set this grunge music trend going. It basically create a new phenonmenon that sort of cause the death of heavymetal music arena that were the rage back in the 80's with bands like Metallica,Megadeth,Iron Maiden,Judas Priest,Sepultura etc etc.

The songs are short and catchy and not as noisy (heheheh) but somehow the style reminds me of punk music like Ramones style. I like Ramones a lot and when Nirvana came along, it sort of re-ignite my interest in short and catchy and slightly noisy song again.

Ppl told me Nirvana may not be the first in this grunge business as Pearl Jam was there first? Nirvana gain world fame first. Anyone wanna confirm on that?

Nirvana are in a different league to Pearl Jam and Metalica.

#1 But the most single factor which ruled was Nirvana defined a generation. The 90s Gen X.

#2 Nirvana showed a disullisoned generation that you too can be a rockstar with three cords and some cool grungy clothes. It was very inspiring for young aspiring grunge rockers , Nirvana helped break the illusion that only the best can be up there on the stage when in fact if u do things differently , u can also become famous

#3 Nirvana also showed If you can't take the pressure blow your head off and you will forever be immortilized as a rock icon.Nirvana was down to earth and able to connect more with the common man with its themes of depression, drug use and suicide

#4 Some may also relate Nirvana's themes with a very important drug discovery of the 90s called Prozac which was used to treat depression.

Everyone's was captivated by Nirvana's 4 marketing techniques.

If you really love NIRVANA, u should know KURT never wanted to be FAMOUS. he gives a HOOT about being a role model to others.

#3 Nirvana also showed If you can't take the pressure blow your head off and you will forever be immortilized as a rock icon.

He was not idolised becos he blew his head off but becos of his attitude and wonderful lyrics. It is true that he could not take the pressure and that is becos again, he did not care about being an icon. The world made him an icon, not him.

Codename V SG

yes Kurt was not intentional, but circumstances and the world which percieved kurt made him famous. Fame is all about this. How the world percieves u.

Codename V SG

He blew his head off and became an icon. He did exactly what he preached - sadistic themes
Because of this, he became famous

can't classify Pearl Jam as grunge, can you?

they played damned well, their hooks, riffs and everything were amazing... and also Vedder could really sing! just as Chris Cornell in Soundgarden could never be called "grunge" either...

my fave Nirvana album remains Bleach..

there was something really raw and immediate about it which the subsequent albums didn't have..

but single tracks, i still have to go with Unplugged.. "The Man Who Sold The World"

"Wishkah"... makes me i wish i saw them when they were still around...

btw, what were you guys listening to at that time? i was listening to Pearl Jam, Nine Inch Nails, Soundgarden and THAT album, Temple of the Dog...
