ok, i'm done quoting. but many people say he's an icon because nirvana had a sound that no one else did. their style of music was original when they first came out.


their style of 'grunge' music which happened in the 90's. but although grunge was somewhat popular with bands like nirvana and pearl jam, it obviously wasn't a good enough genre to win the ears of younger kids. the kids went to listen to backstreet boys and nsync during the 90's while grunge was born and died. kids these days have a lot of great music to listen to so that's why pop music isn't as popular anymore. i'm not dissing all grunge, but what nirvana started wasn't great.

you know, i don't think grunge officialy "died" and honestly i don't think it even officialy lived. The thing people don't seem to understand is that Nirvana didn't create grunge, they didn't even consider their music as grunge, they hated that label, it's just that before Nirvana, grunge was very underground and Nirvana brought it "overground"
there are still a few grunge bands today but they are not as trendy as they were in the 80's and 90's, a trend can die and it doesn't mean the music died

There was just a period of time when Grunge was big. Like now.. how Emo and Rap are big. That was what was big bakc then. They just happened to write music and got swept up and labled as grunge

Kurt hated his own music. He was always trying to make it sound louder and and harsher rougher. In a way its kinda sad. I mean he didn't want to just accept the fact that was the music he wrote. Yknow what I mena?

I think its kinda funny when people say they love Kurt's lyrics. I like some of them but half of them are contradicting.. but then I guess that's the beauty of it.

My fave Nirvana songs..

the cover of the Man Who Sold the World. That riff is fucking catchy. In Bloom, Old Age (any of you know that one it was one the CD thingy that came out this year or last year), All Apologies, Sliver, Lounge Act, On a Plain (Unplugged Version)

Yeah that's it. My top 3 are TMWSTW. In Bloom and Old Age. I learned how to play all 3 on my guitar. Cool As well as others

My fav. songs are Blandest, Heartbreaker (Live) Lounge Act. and Floyd The Barber.

My momma heard About A Girl (Home Demo) and said "Kurt even sings like a druggie..."

Akward, because I never even thought my mom knew about Nirvana, let alone the people in the band...

I know what you mean about his lyrics. Over half of them don't make sense to me. But I told that to my brother and he was like Shocked "HOW CAN THEY NOT MAKE SENSE? THEY SPEAK TO ME!" So I guess it's all in how you look at it.

I think Kurt has an amazing voice. He can scream on key and stuff. I love the screaming part in Lounge Act, Lithium and Wehere Did You Sleep LAst Night on Unplugged

The end of Where Did You Sleep Last Night is amazing. He screams that like it's the last thing he'll ever sing.

Which, I guess, it kind of was...

I just learned In Bloom on drums. WOOO.

I think music is amazing. It can change your emotions, your mind, your friends. Your Life.

Some bands, whether they liked it or not changed the world. Nirvana being one of them.

Bands inspire people everyday, they save lives everyday, I know that sounds drastic but I know a lot of people who are only here today because of the music.

Okay I've babbeled on enough now... Rolling Eyes Laughing

I remember when I first got Unplugged, I watched him sing the last part endlessly. I kept rewinding it and playing it.

I love when he opens his eyes for that brief second. ITs like.. Shocked

Cuz he mostly keeps his eyes lowered and closed. Ugh. I watched it tongiht I'm tempted to watch it again but i'm not sure.

I listened to the original version of the WDYSLN.It was kinda different. It was a lot faster and quicker. But I like Nirvana's version. And I fucknig love the accordian in Jesus Don't Want Me For a Sunbeam. Its a fun tune to hum along to
