yeah sappy is key!

 

How about: i hate myself and want to die, verse chorus verse.

lithium.

i'm also a sucker for aneurysm, too.

but lithium's the one that i will always, always love. (if only i hadn't heard matthew sweet cover it acoustically a while back, which made it sound like my dad doing it; i love matt sweet almost as much as i love my dad, but i didn't need to hear someone who sounded like them singing that song)...

There's sort of a weird thing about Nirvana.

Especially if you were old enough to be a music snob when they were big.

As a rule, music snobs shun the mainstream as sell out crap, and seek the obscure, under the impression that the true talent is incomprehensible by the masses, and thus exists only in the shadows.

So I remember the way Nirvana was slammed by the music snobs of the day, meanwhile more obscure bands of the time were held up to the light as superior.

Dinosaur Junior, I remember, being one of them. I remember a lot of people telling me that DJ was so much better than Nirvana. Though I never really got in to Dino that much, I just sort of accepted that it was the opinion of those who were "in the know" or whatever.

But now, over a decade later, it seems obvious that with Nirvana, the mainstream actually got it right for a change.

And with disasterous results.

So maybe it really is better for everyone involved if the artists stay out of the spotlight.

Dude, my old band used to have a {censored}ing blast playing Negative Creep.

Thats like the only song I can think of where the sloppier you play it, the better it sounds. You can actually play it while falling backwards on to a drum set without screwing it up.
