Kurt Cobain Biography Kurt Donald Cobain was the leader of Nirvana, the multi-platinum grunge band that redefined the sound of the nineties. Cobain was born on the 20th of February 1967 in Hoquaim, a small town 140 kilometres south-west of Seattle. His mother was a cocktail waitress and his father was an auto mechanic. Cobain soon moved to nearby Aberdeen, a depressed and dying logging town. Cobain was for most his childhood a sickly bronchitic child. Matters were made worse when Cobain's parent's divorced when he was seven and by his own account Cobain said he never felt loved or secure again. He became increasingly difficult, anti-social and withdrawn after his parent's divorce. Cobain also said that his parent's traumatic split fueled a lot of the an More... (Submit New Nirvana Lyrics) (Submit New Nirvana Lyrics) Review about Nirvana There is a point. Drugged or not. | Reviewer: Z-P Hude ------ About the song Territorial Pissings performed by Nirvana We all know Kurt was drugged as all f*** when he wrote/played/dreamed this music up. Even so, there is a point. First off, these lyrics are an embodiment of anger at the system. Take them at face value. I know when I used to be a user, my conversations were more philisophical then when i was sober. Whether or not my views made any sense is another story altogether. But whatever you do, don't bring Stairway to Heaven into a conversation as an example of meaningless lyrics. The lyrics carry a great depth of meaning, even if the author (Kurt in this case or Plant in Stairway) intended them to or not. The music itself was drug induced, in both cases. So are we saying the music has no meaning? No deeper message? By the way - Beethoven was deaf, so his successes were just luck (sarcasm). meaning | Reviewer: Bart ------ About the song Rape Me performed by Nirvana I believe this song is representing Kurts anti-rape view. he mocks the rapist "Rape me, my friend", "Do it and do it again". "Your going to stin and burn", your going to die along and rot while your soul burns in hell. And "am i the only one" is am i the only one who feels this strongly. thats my opinion of the song, Cobain did say in an interview that this song represented his anti rape view blah | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Lake Of Fire performed by Nirvana It's not accurate to say that there are no people, that could relate to Kurt. I think many people relate to him on some level , but what Kurt had was special - he had a brilliant mind, a great poethic, musical gift and, perhaps most importantly, the charisma and voice to stand out from the crowd. That's what made him the spokesman of a generation. Sun course | Reviewer: nnsoxke ------ About the song Very Ape performed by Nirvana In my opinion this song lyrics talk about the course of the Sun (out of the sky into the ground means Sun set and finally ot comes to dirt). It's like the thought expressed in Dumb lyrics: "Skin the Sun fall asleep wish away soul is cheap ... I think I dumb or maybe just happy" Or that expressed in the Heart Shaped Box video: -Sun set -Universal Mother The Sun is the symbol of reason (like masonic meaning) and Universal Mother Utero is symbol of the first stage in spiritual growth (like masonic meaning too) (In Utero is the last album title) "Trow down your umbelical noose so I can climb right back" Oral | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Floyd The Barber performed by Nirvana This song is about a boy going to the barber named floyd and then floyd the barber made the boy give him head by barney strapping him to the chair and he couldn't see and unzipped his pants then "pee pee pressed against my lips" (oral sex) then Opey and Aunt Bee took turns getting oral from the boy. "They take turns and cut me up" I never realized how twisted this song was until just now. Its pretty fu*ked up. suicide | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Smells Like Teen Spirit performed by Nirvana There are meanings to this song and i don't know why all you people don't see that, it says it all in the lyrics like "Load up on guns Bring your friends It's fun to lose and to pretend She's overboard self assured" also "I'm worse at what I do best And for this gift I feel blessed Our little group has always been And always will until the end" the title is also saying something, it's trying to say "smells like teen spirit" as in so many teen are commiting suicide Is it really so strange? | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Territorial Pissings performed by Nirvana Look, I don't really think Nirvana's lyrics were about making a point. Cobain might've had a few points but heavy drug abuse makes the best lyrics. Stairway to heaven, for example, which everyone loves was written by Jimmy Page and Robert Plant, while stoned. the line "just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after you" for example. It has NO point, but it sounds great. NIRVANA KICKS ASS ,STILL !!!!!!! | Reviewer: BLACK J7414 ------ About artist/band Nirvana I am 30 years old and I was around when nirvana hit the seen with "smells like teen spirit".Back in those early 90's days (prior to on demand tv)all we really had was the juke box channel where you could call in and select the # of the video you wanted to see and it would be played and smells like teen spirit would be played at least 5 times in an hour , and thats huge.I was about 13 when those idiots that raped that young lady used nirvana songs as theme music to their stupidity.with that being said ,lets look at the present and make sure that something as beautiful as "In Bloom" doesn't get misused My Interpretation | Reviewer: Bob007 ------ About the song Frances Farmer Will Have Her Revenge On Seattle performed by Nirvana When I listen to this song, I think of like this: If it makes people relaxed, soothed, relieved--basically happy--to know that people in general are so money hungry and selfish; he misses the comfort in being sad. It's almost like the whole "ignorance is bliss" idea; you'll be happier than anyone if you're completely ignorant, but some people would rather be informed, and have knowledge even if it may make them sad... I don't know if that made sense to anyone else, I'm kind of bad at explaining things, but whatever. Oh, and sorry for the improper overusage of commas and semi-colons, it's a bad habit of mine. um, do you guys know what your really on about? | Reviewer: tony ------ About the song Jesus Doesn't want Me for a Sunbeam performed by Nirvana ya guys know, that this song is actually a cover for a vaselines song called jesus doesnt want me for a sunbeam. (though the original release name is jesus wants me for a sunbeam, check wikipedia for an explination). The song is self is actually a parody of a song called, ill be your sunbeam, which is a childrens him. dont belive me? go have a look at Nirvana Unplugged, listen to how kurt introduces the song. To each his (her) own | Reviewer: Oskar ------ About the song Rape Me performed by Nirvana You can think what you like about the qualities of the song, and whether or not he should have used the words Rape Me as he did. Fact is, the song is autobiographical. Kurt Cobain wrote it with the intention of describing how his constant stomache pains (which he had since his youth) ruled his life. He used the words Rape Me because that's what the pain was to him: an insult on his person. That the called the pain My Friend is because it was sometimes the only thing that acompanied him when he felt abandoned and lonely. Biographers link this information to his drugs abuse later in life: As a child, he had learned that pain can be treated with pills. When regular medicine were no longer sufficient, well.... Noob Stigma! | Reviewer: Zak ------ About the song Polly performed by Nirvana I've been listening to Nirvana for 4 days, I've known of them all my life and have been prompted to listen to them for just as long. So over 4 days I listened to 4 albums my Dad had and thought hey I change my mind they sound pretty cool. So at this point I decide i'm a 'fan', it seems loads of you would disagree, I read all the reveiws for this song and learned a lot about the fanbase of Nirvana, they are the most dedicated bunch ever! I'd just love to be a part of that but I forget who but people would describe me as a poser, it's written in such a way that suggests if you were not into Nirvana from a really young age you can never be a Nirvana fan, I don't know all the meanings to all the songs but this particular song I kind of got it straight away. I can tell that they have a lot to offer as a band. It's just a plea to people basically insulting the Nirvana Noobs, how do people expect them to live on if they make people feel like Idiots for not getting it straight away, I mean not everyone is super intelligent (Or mabye that's just me.). Not that there is anything wrong with being insulted, it's not like anything happens right? Pollys awesome as a song I could listen to it for ages everything about it is perfect, I love all of em' they are musicians among musicians. Man Kurt Cobains death (Suicide/Murder whatever I don't have all the facts.) such a shame, theres really no bands anymore that can connect with people, I don't mean 'Angst Ridden Teens' that terms offensive as hell, I mean everyone gets down right, it makes me feel like... When someone shares their sadness with you it balances you out. Dunno! Educated converstaion to benefit my understanding | Reviewer: Stephen ------ About the song Pennyroyal Tea performed by Nirvana To the person or persons who claim they don't have the time or want to explain kurts issues etc, I am very curious, very educated person and I have many things in common with the man who I knew nothing about untill very recently, if you would like to have an educated conversation about his lyrics his passions etc I would greatly Appreciate your time, I've been a fan of their music since I was a little kid but the media and parents blah blah made him out to be a monster, so I was "blind" to the truth due to the uneducTed, stupid people who are trully blind to the real world Thank you Polly | Reviewer: Ally ------ About the song Polly performed by Nirvana I’m 16 years old and I grow up listening to Nirvana (and all off those old-school bands to) because of my father (I can say that I’ve got a great music culture because of him). He has all Nirvana CD’s; it’s just amazing how a band could create so many great albums. Kurt was, and still is a genius (he’s eternal – Love you Kurt!). I remember that once in primary school, that without my father’s knowledge I brought “Nevermind” in my Discman to the class and started listening to it when the teacher begin to talk (she was a real pain in the ass). Then I think she must have heard some kind of background noise or something and she looked at me, and there I was listening to Polly. She just literally ran at me furious and she took my Discman and put me in detention. I remember that she just sad this: “Why are you listening to this? This isn’t music! What education are your parents given you? They must be crazy to let her daughter listen to this Stuff!” I went mad and started kicking her ankles because she was pulling my ear while she lead me to the detention room and also because she wouldn’t gave me my Discman. The next day my father went to school (I still don’t know what he have said to that bitch) and she brought my Discman back. Then he said something that marked me for life: “Be proud of being different and listening to what other people thinks that suck’s. Because if one day someone tells him to jump from a bridge, they will jump and you’ll just laugh at them from top.” And it’s the truth, I think that the youth of today has been brain washed, they don’t have any culture, they just want to be popular, cool and “In”. Well, I apologize if my English isn’t the best, I’m Portuguese. Peace! :) Pleas | Reviewer: Andra ------ About the song Jesus Doesn't want Me for a Sunbeam performed by Nirvana Do not confuse our perspective with Cobain perspective, the real meaning just he know it remains a work of art as each sees its own reflection point of view and not kurt view. However my perspective (I am not saying that is the reality) is that the message is clear, he lives in the indifference of their fellow, Christian and expectativy so do not expect to see crying, dying or lying for thee. How he gonna expect to be loved for someone (jesus) that insite the love and sacrifice?. I say what I think it is and what I think is just an interpretation that does not require knowing a little explored but did not urge kurt mix my feelings with him. what I think about the letter is very aside what that can mean. People and Cobain | Reviewer: Shade Nightfang ------ About the song Dumb performed by Nirvana You know it sorta ticks me off how people are just like ya this song is about such an such then they drag themselves into it trying to make themselves seem as imporatant now ill agree with some of you the lyrics are about drugs that is a given cobain had a very odd mind an ill drag myself into this just a lil to explain one little thing just cause say you do have ADD or your childhood was say close to that of cobains or perhaps you do the same drugs he did that does not mean that you will turn out like him in any way i do not wish to start a war i mearly wish to speak my mind i do understand that is what all you other people wished to do its just you do not really need to put yourself into certian things it merely makes you seem like an ass...sometimes i know i might get alot of negative feedback on this but i really dont care someone somewhere had to say something at one time. nirvana | Reviewer: Someone ------ About artist/band Nirvana i think his death makes his music and its message so much stronger. he was an artist. i think his death was a release for him, but at the same time the final line to his amazing piece of work and we can see it through his lirycs, his music and his life. if he wasnt dead, if he hadnt killed himself, i think nirvana would not mean wat it means today. u can feel his pain, his disappointment about life when u listen to him singing. i think we owe him that. Kurt Cobain ...AMAZING ROCK STAR ***********************************LIKE THIS | Reviewer: amit ------ About the song You Know You're Right performed by Nirvana Kurt Cobain was an amazing artist. Sometimes it really does seem as if his lyrics have some deep emotional roots. Although, I know at times he was known to make up lyrics on the spot in the studio. Case in point: On a Plane - "I'll start this off without any words..." That being said, this song, in my opinion, is one of Cobain's more emotionally charged pieces. For me, this song is the end of a relationship. The very end where the person who is usually at fault, is ready to take the blame, accept the consequences, and move on in life. I am at this point in my life, and, even though I've heard this song innumerable times on my iPod and on the radio, tonight it moved me to tears. It is worth noting that we will be very lucky to see this calibur of songwriting more than once in our lifetime. Jason's right | Reviewer: EpicNirvanaFan ------ About the song In Bloom performed by Nirvana Jason's right because this song is jsut all about how people are like sheep and follow the next thing that their friends move to. My friends are all into the new songs and stuff but I choose to stick with good music because i like it not because its "cool". the ironic thing about thwe meaning of this song is that once Nevermind was released and it became 1 of the greatest albums in history all the sheep just followed and listened to it which is why Kurt got really annoyed and threatened to jump off of a stage roof in one of his concerts. Glue | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Dumb performed by Nirvana "My heart is broke But I have some glue Help me inhale And mend it with you" ^ I'd say that's a pretty strong drugs reference right there, yeah? The drugs idea's got to have some credit. Sounds like a song from the perspective of an addict without a lot of self worth. BUUUT whatever. Lyrics usually aren't very precise, more a collection of ideas.
