well.. what am I supposed to say?

you listen to it on repeat for hours: um, okay.

perhaps I should ask how many hours exactly you listen to it
on repeat?

it's fucking good.

when i was first learning guitar, i bought a phaser pedal
specifically to emulate that one song.

only if you will jam with me!

i try not to listen to any song on repeat, though. it's
dangerous!

very good song! : )

though my favourite Nirvana b-side so far has to be Aero
Zeppelin... (oh wait, it's on Incesticide... but it's still
a b-side right?)

so thats where that name came from...a friend of mine calls
himself curmudgeon man sometimes, thats pretty much the
extent of the character.

listening now for the first time.. hope it's good.. it's
following zappa's blessed relief so i don't think it'll get
into my good books tbh

i know its in the box set, but i cant remember which
"nevermind" single it was on, and currently my nirvana cds
are at the bottom of ................hold the check

its on the "Lithium" single w/"Been a son (live)"

also what qrter said "it's a good song"

p.s. the Lithium "compact disc maxi-single Includes complete
lyrics to every song on NEVERMIND"

if you really like nirvana a whole lot, you might like this
song. otherwise, you probably will strongly dislike it.

rarities.

the box set is the best thing ever released by nirvana..i
just love the rough production!!

unmastered and or live music does add charm sometimes

in my case it isn't the charm really, it's the rough harsh
sound of it that i love :)

yes, two people posted that they didn't like the song after
hearing it the first time. and i was pointing out that it
isn't one of nirvana's more accessible songs. it's more of
a challenging/weirdo-freak-out than, say, "about a girl".
so in my estimation, it would be not as easy a song to get
into for the average person who isn't huge into the band and
very familiar with them.

ah is see! yes i agree on that..that was another of their
qulaities - not to be affraid of playing very different
stuff.

when i was 9 years old and ill and coudnt sleep i listened
to this song on repeat from 1 o' clock at night to 6 o'
clock in the morning.
a few days before i had chewed on some type of plastic and
then my whole body started to itch for a week or two.

well, that was 10 years ago ... it didnt actually cure me
but it indeed made me forget about the itching

i'm very very familiar with them though, apart from their
b-sides (at least the stuff that didn't appear on
incesticide)

just don't see what the fuss, or the muss is about. i
like the phaser on the guitar though, christ he has that
thing cranked up.. to eleven..

well come on if you were a kid while nirvana was around you
must have liked them or else you were probably a loser

"apart from their b-sides (at least the stuff that didn't
appear on incesticide)"

with all due respect, that's not very very familiar. i grew
up listening to half the shit in the box set... it's really
relative.

I grew up in the countryside of Ireland, where the nearest
shop was a 10 minute drive away, and the "next-door"
neighbour's house was a 5 minute walk.

Nobody listened to music, let alone good music. It really
is all relative.

did you have family get togethers with sing songs around the
piano?

no, but on st stephen's day we'd go up to the house of some
family friends where there'd be like a gathering of 60-odd
drunken irish and scottish people, and there'd be plenty of
songs sung and guitar and piano playing.

it was a nice childhood to be honest. safe from mtv. nothing
can compare to being 6 years old lying on a huge lawn during
summer, staring up at the sky with peaches en regalia
*blasting* out of our hifi. (probably the best thing about
living out there was being able to listen to music as loud
as you want)

i'm rambling. it's good to reminisce sometimes though.
