Musical opinions of a sane teenage girl.: Oh well, whatever, Nevermind.

Wanted more than I could steal - Nirvana - Lounge Act

Something pretty cool happened 20 years ago. Well, more than pretty cool. Freaking awesome. This week, 20 years ago, a 90s grunge rock band called Nirvana came up with one of the best albums in history. NEVERMIND. The album that included such songs as Smells Like Teen Spirit, Come As You Are, Lithium, and many more songs that still prove to put the wannabe soft-rock songs of today in their place.

So to celebrate, I shall post all the songs from the album onto this post, for you to enjoy and rock out to and yeah.

Smells Like Teen Spirit

The soundtrack of teen rebellion. I know that sounds cheesy, but it is. Don't lie. People don't like liars. If you don't like this song, which is highly unlikely, don't even bother to carry on reading.

I'm worse at what I do best

And for this gift I feel blessed.

In Bloom

The music video to this makes me laugh :) Great progression in this, a personal favourite to air drum along to. Although I have always thought the intro sounds like Grohl kicking his drum kit down the stairs... but in a good way.

And he likes to shoot his gun,

But he knows not what it means.

Come As You Are

Kurt Cobain has the most beautifully husky voice and that is one of the reasons I love this. So much. Brilliant guitar solo, and just general wowness.

Come, dowsed in mud, soaked in bleach

As I want you to be.

Breed

Took me a little while to get into this, but when I did, I loved it. Still do. Love the lyrics and the general noisiness of it and everything.

I don't mean to stare

We don't have to breed.

Lithium

One of my favourite Nirvana songs. I love the lyrics, how they kinda express Kurts feelings, and also the contrast between the mellow verse and then the freaking awesome chorus.

I'm so happy, cause today I found my friends

They're in my head.

I'm so ugly, thats OK cause so

are you

Broke our mirrors.

Polly

Truly chilling. I mean, it's amazing and all, and the guitar will stick in you head for days, but the story behind it when you listen to the lyrics is haunting. Based on a true story too. Just keep it in mind.

She caught me off my guard

Amazes me the will, of instinct.

Territorial Pissings

Like a big ball of Nirvana noise. Admittedly, not my favourite, but good all the same.

When I was an alien

Cultures weren't opinions.

Drain you

Just so legendary, I reckon it should have had a music video. Cannot express my love for this song in words, so instead I give you a strange face that will hopefully do the job for me. ^_^

With eyes so dilated, I've become your pupil

You've taught me everything about a poison apple.

Lounge Act

I love the lyrics to this. And the bass. And the guitar. Oh the guitar. Definitely listen to the lyrics next time, for some reason I love them. Maybe its just cause Kurt's singing them. Don't ask.

And I've got this friend, you see

Who makes me feel.
