Nirvana Lyrics

    ------ About the song Lithium performed by Nirvana

well, for me this song really strikes me and i don't know why. i just feel this hard. damn! they're all great. they really love music and they got it all. it's not the sounds that sometimes others didn't like to hear coz its too noisy for them but when you try to put yourself into it you just realize how they felt about the music they've made. you can feel the saddest part of their emotions well. i can feel kurt cobain PAIN dying inside. And maybe just listen carefully, feel the rhythm of the music, take time. we'll sure do love the music that fits our emotions and feelings. yeah.sorry for my bad english.

    ------ About the song Lake Of Fire performed by Nirvana

Ok, yes Nirvana performed it and therefore they are the singers. Obviously they gave credit to the Meat Puppets at the and so... yeah.
And People at least spell Kurt's Name right...!

    ------ About the song Scentless Apprentice performed by Nirvana

Kurt wrote this song from one of his favorite books, "Perfume." It is a beautiful book of a man born with a nose that smells everything in the world quite profoundly and his journey and choices of what to do with that gift ... which turns into a murder mystery. I think Kurt mostly channeled his writing from deep within. This song was his attempt to give his fans a "song meaning." I highly recommend the book. Then the lyrics are crystal! ; )

    ------ About the song Tourette's performed by Nirvana

First off to the outstanding collegiate who talks about on a plain. On a plain pertains to opiates, which makes you scratch till you bleed. He hadn't even known Courtney at this point. Most of Nevermind is about the girl from bikini kill who dumped him. Just read a little more and do your research before you claim to be an expert on someone else's lyrics. Nobody knows the true meaning behind these songs except the man himself. Im sure he would tell you that there's no big mystical explanation and to stop analysing and just dig the music. Don't be pretentious, be adventurous.

    ------ About the song Dive performed by Nirvana

these lyrics refer to the witnessing of an entire collapse of all definition and measurement - to the point at which they are no longer relevant and the only thing that is left is... the ever changing moment

    ------ About the song Smells Like Teen Spirit performed by Nirvana

The fact that people try to analyse art is a joke. They've completely missed the point. Nobody knows what it means not even Kurt. That's the point is to "Choose your own adventure." There's no right or wrong answer. The real fact is he was kind of lazy with lyrics because "Lyrics are secondary, Music comes first." Art is not meant to be broken down and dissected. Feelings are conveyed through music and expression. Not someone else's opinion. Stop trying and just listen. As a musician I as well get irritated when people speak for me and ask "What does it mean?" Think for yourself and keep it to yourself. That's what makes it special and personal. By the way he didn't kill himself. Peace, Love and Empathy. MM

    ------ About the song Sifting performed by Nirvana

Its interesting to hear your views on what these songs are about. However know that most of your opinions are just speculation. Again most of what people presume to know about Kurt from what they've read or heard is just exaggerated or fabricated. Nobody can possibly know what any of these songs mean. Most of his songs were bits of poetry or stories thrown together at the last minute. That's how song writing goes. There's nothing mystical about it. John Lennon and Kurt both admitted this yet people still try to complicate things by defining or over analysing lyrics because they feel they need an answer. The fact remains that only he knows what these words mean, and I don't think he's going to tell us anytime soon. Nor would he feel he has to give a reason for making art. Just listen and find your own meaning in beauty.

    ------ About the song All Apologies performed by Nirvana

To the person below, shame for your unbelief. Please don't take my comment lightly, i completely reject all religion and love Jesus Christ.
If you are a nonbeliever in God and Heaven and Hell shame for you. People for ages and ages made up MESSED UP religions either rejecting and blaspheming God or making up false ways to 'enter Heaven'. No one is righteous and everyone deserves hell as no one is 'good' enough to enter Heaven, but there IS A WAY OUT...
YES - it's the DESPISED, HATED, BUT LOVED BY A CERTAINLY LESS NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO OBEY HIM AND HIS FREE SALVATION GIFT OF LIFE - Jesus Christ, who is our God, our bridge between man and God, our Lord and Saviour!
The Way to Heaven is admitting you are a sinner, deserving hell, and believing on this Gospel (good news TO BE BELIEVED AND TRUSTED) and trusting Jesus Christ as your salvation alone...
Jesus Christ paid the price of hell for our sins - he DIED on the cross FOR ME, SHEDDING HIS BLOOD FOR ALL MY SINS, he got BURIED, and was RESURRECTED 3 days later...

    ------ About the song All Apologies performed by Nirvana

What he lacked is truly love. Was living a life of evil instead of Jesus Christ. He wanted his parents love but got destroyed by his parents divorce. His mentality became destroying and he decided to worship satan and love all things - hanged dolls of little babies, complete drug worshipping. It didn't get him anything no matter how much whores,alcohol,drugs,heroin he took in, it would never fill his hole in heart. He first saw love from his parents. They started divorcing. He already as a child imagined a "Buddah" so he was already believing in devils, and his parents's divorce definitely shattered him. He sold his soul to the devil for "good-sounding music". and rejected Jesus Christ in his lyrics and believed his life was only a 'Hindu Nirvana' an illusion but the illusion was that he believed this was true... But even the Bible calls Allah the 'greatest deceiver' all religions are messed up. He sold his soul and unhappily burned away and went to hell. Some would call him a 'legend' for me I was listening to his music because I knew my brother was listening and wanted to see what it was. Well it only sounded good, the guitars etc. screeching it's all worthless and it is not-so-good music of satan. All it did was make me almost destroy my life in teenage rebellion, with problems because of demon posssession already (i got healed thanks to Jesus Christ) and i didn't get a morale - i knew i wouldn't want to ever follow Kurt Cobain... It's a shame how he destroyed himself. If my belief in Jesus Christ is true Cobain is sadly burning in hell for rejecting God. I used to say "peace" to such souls but... really stupid what you did. flajerace@o2.pl

    ------ About the song Pennyroyal Tea performed by Nirvana

Yes Kurt was depressed, but lyrics dont always have to have some deep ceited meaning, some lyrics are simply lyrics about a random issue that somebody feels like talking about at the time. Kurt was anemic and he did have stomach problems. Symptoms of anemia include loss of energy, fatigue and insomnia (Im so tired I cant sleep)and depending on which deficiency is causing the anemia, symptoms can include hallucinations, paranoia schizophrenia and constipation (im on warm milk and laxatives). Perhaps he was "anemic royalty" because he had nearly all of the symptoms asscoiated with this illness. Either way his lyrics/songs still rock and will be forever timeless. RIP Kurt
