most of nevermind is about equally good to me. maybe I like that one track "he likes our pretty songs and he likes to sing along" etc less than the others since it's slightly pretentious. |

great to see (almost) everyone picking a different song... |

heh, this is great...looks like the poll for the most likeable nirvana song will end up with 2 votes :) |
||||||||

with 2 votes in favour of heart shaped box. |

you mean "in bloom". Cobain always said his lyrics had no meaning whatsoever, so that would make it hard to be pretentious. on the other hand, for example "scentless apprentice" is about Patrick Süskind's book "Das Parfum/Perfume".. so.. it would seem he used fragments to start him writing lyrics, but I don't think they have one central theme. even "all apologies", which would seem to be about wanting to apologize for EVERYTHING, has plenty of lyrics that bear no visible reference to that theme. on a sidenote - "all apologies" also has one of the best lines in any song ever: "aqua seafoam shame". it means absolutely nothing (to me at least), but the way it sounds when you say it, the rhythm..! :) |

oh man all these votes are boring. everything is slammed down to simple lists, all nuance gone. |
||||||||
|

"aqua seafoam shame" no idea what could it mean? cuz i don't have a clue :) |

the complete lyrics of "all apologies", to place the line in context: What else should I be All apologies What else could I say Everyone is gay What else could I write I don't have the right What else should I be All apologies In the sun In the sun I feel as one In the sun In the sun I'm married buried I wish I was like you Easily amused Find my nest of salt Everything is my fault I'll take all the blame Aqua seafoam shame Sunburn with freezerburn Choking on the ashes of her enemy In the sun In the sun I feel as one In the sun In the sun I'm married buried married buried Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah All in all is all we all are [X19] All in all is all we are |

hehe, i just wanted to see how easy would it be to pick a favourite song... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so.. um.. I have no idea. :) and I don't mind! |
||||||||

aqua seafoam is actually one of the two colors the jagstang (a guitar kurt designed for fender) comes in |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
was taht guitar named like so after the song or before? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
..well I never.. but then he named the colour himself. |
||||||||

"In 1993, Cobain came to Fender with some cut-up photographs of his two favorite guitars – stuck together. And, in the end – what transpired was an amazing guitar featuring a basswood body and a 24” short-scale maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard." doesn't say anything about the exact year the guitar went into production, though. |

it would seem Fender calls the colours "fiesta red" and "sonic blue".. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha...i made a little research myself :) and there's a whole series of aqua guitars...so maybe he was refering to a guitar in all apologies |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha somehow i accidentally opened EXHIBITA.jpg that shit never gets old |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I know.. it's fucking hypnotic. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, owners do call the colour "aqua seafoam". so then he's referring to the colour. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well it's probably true that you don't gain as much insight as you would if we all tried to elaborate on something about the song that makes it the best... (or talk about aqua seafoam shame)... and probably we should... but just by listing your favourite song, i think a lot is said, simply because a song has such a multiplicity of meanings to which it can be attached, it is one (or two) word that stands for much much more... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh but I don't mind the lists of favourite songs - I also like to see what everybody likes, because they do most probably say something about the person in question. I just don't like then trying to make one universal list, with one 'most voted for' song coming out. to me that takes away the whole charm. |
||||||||

#1 Nirvana song: THE SECRET SONG! I believe the Jag-Stang is no longer being made, or they just changed the name to something else... I had one, played like shit, so I returned back it. It didn't even produce good feedback (which was my original inspiration for buying it). Although it had that typical Nirvana-ratty sound when combined with the orange Boss Distortion box. |

on a plain drain you |

exillion: the secret song has a name you know.. its called "endless/nameless" not everyone knows that though... |

I can't believe noone mentioned 'Negative Creep' yet, that was the first Nirvana song I ever heard. Shortly afterwards, very drunk i feel down some slippery concrete steps at the party. This did not tarnish my happy musical memory. |

oh god yes I used to have that song on repeat. and just growled along. or tried to. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I just found the lyrics, and they're not at all what i thought, for all these years, they were. Oh well. I believe i got the gist. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
verse chorus verse, and though they are covers, "where did you slep lastnight" and "the man who sold the world" from unplugged |
||||||||
|
|

|

'Milk it' is pure brilliance... |

nirvana did LOTS of covers.. most of which were never recorded on offical means. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've got the 'Hard to Believe' album of Kiss Covers, where they do Lotta Love. Frikkin aces. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
