The Reviews about Pennyroyal Tea (page 2/ 6)
------ performed by Nirvana


nirvana | Reviewer: Heather | 5/8/09

This song is, to me, about withdrawals. yall are all right though. A song means a certain thing to the person who writes it, and that message can be conveyed to those who listen, or it might cause a different reaction. THAT is what a skilled song writer does. Writes a song using SYMBOLISM. pennyroyal tea is about withdrawal, abortion, anemia, or if you have no imagination or feelings, nothing.

ok this song is defiantly about his life with addiction and its symptoms it also is kindof about courtney love who he was planning on getting a divorce with even though she helped write the song a bit



kurt's lyrics | Reviewer: blah | 3/7/09

Every song that kurt made, i think, were influenced by past experiences, only he knew what the songs meant, only he knew what experiences or memories he was referring to. My point is that even if he just wrote random words, like many say that Kurt made random songs with no meaning, the words he was thinking of while writing a song, they all connected to the song he was creating at the moment.
Anyway, Nirvana is an amazing band and this is one of many great songs Nirvana made.

Not saying that I know the answers for sure...
but have any of you every detoxed? This describes it very well. "i'm so tired i can't sleep"... it sucks, completely exhausted but unable to sleep, can't shit, and you hurt all fucking over but stomach worst than most. And you're really, really fucking cold. No matter how many blankets/whatever you have. Hot drinks and showers are only way to warm up. So believe whatever you want, but there is no part of this song that doesn't fit in very well with drug withdrawals and regret.



Cobain | Reviewer: beneath | 1/29/09

maybe he said that he didnt meant anything with his lyrics... but every one word which is in his songs had to come to his mind because of some reason... its like when you use some hallucinogen and youre doing/saying things that came to your subconscious mind... things about you have never thought before knowingly but they are comeing upon some of your experiences

kurt and courtney wrote this in one of kurts notebooks. they would leave it out And each of them would take turns writing lines. this song has lots of ideas and meanings, but the main idea was about an abortion.. pennyroyal tea has a history w tht.. its clear in the chorus. lol all u fucks r so dumb, saying kurt just wrote random shit and it is over analyzed. maybe it is over analyzed, but by saying his lyrics r mostly random just show how noone understood him and u obviously dont get his lyrics. i cant even even begin to explain myself or y cause its too long and its pointless, since noone will take it into consideration. lol im so fucking obsessed and educated on everyhing about him. kurt cobain is jesusszz and my fucking epic hero



It was Cobain after all... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/15/09

And Kurt always stated he didn't mean shit with his songs, he wrote some of them while on the way to the studio, only a few minutes before he actually sang what he just wrote.
I've read millions of articles about his lyrics, because I could never really figure them out and after reading all those things, I really am sure he just made his lyrics sound good, wrote down whatever just came to his mind and had a good laugh at people who spent hours and hours trying to figure out what the song was about.
I remember a statement about Pennyroyal tea he made, when being asked about its meaning "It's herbal abortion, but it doesn't work you hippy." I think that makes pretty clear that he was annoyed about people asking him about the meanings of his songs.



Blah, Blah, Blah | Reviewer: What? | 1/14/09

The lyrics seem right. But why do people have to go on and on about crap on the internet? I mean, everybody has to fight about something, whether it's on Youtube or anything, there's always people debating about something. Why does everyone have to fight about their own theories for something, and then get mad at everyone who disagrees? Geez.

You, who have to btch at others, just so funny. Nirvana, not just Kurt, was great. In my opinion, a "great" band, is in the rare case, that every member excels at the instrument that they are playing. Not just a great lead singer, in this case, Nirvana, is a great band, in their own right anyhow.



pennyroyal tea | Reviewer: crystal | 11/2/08

truthfully. it doesn't matter what he "really" meant when he wrote the song. you can tell he meant something that was important to him cuz there is a great amount of feeling in the song. i'm sure many people can find lots of things that mean different things to them. i love this song... and oddly enough after being hospitialized three times recently for anemia i can see a lot of references to that too.

take what you want from it... but love it none the less... it's an awesome song.
