My freshman year in HS (last year lol) science teacher is 68, 69 now I guess lol but she's shared so many stories from the Cold War era and we ask her about bands and whatnot and she remembers The Beatles (when she was a teenager) and Nirvana, but she was an adult during Nirvana's era so she didn't really listen to them but she remembered all the hype. Pretty cool. She told us about how during the Cold War era, and the Cuban missile crisis, people thought the soviets were gonna nuke us (I live in Rhode Island USA btw) and they thought the world was gonna end litterally...scary time but interesting. My favorite era in history.

WAIT.... what song is that! " and hes like smells like teen spirit by nirvana and that was the start of it aoways new there was this dope band out there and i loved that sound and riff but couldnt figure out who it was or the song name untill he played it fell in love with the band almost immediately

+CHUCKYLOSTIT Nirvana has the power to change many people's lives in many different ways. Few bands can do that. It changed my life. Before, I just listened to and played music (I only played piano) to relax, and move on to another world for a little while. But when I heard Nirvana, evertthing changed. They inspired me to play the guitar, the first full song of theirs that I played was Lithium. I also began to consider music as a possible career. I started taking my guitar to school, playin gn at lunch. Now, music was not just a temporary escape. No... now it was a way of life, it took a tenacious grip of my heart. I breathe music now. My past self would not understand what I'm talking about if weren't for Nirvana. Nirvana literally changed my whole life.

This band singlehandedly kept actual, good rock music afloat from the mid 90's until today. As a rock listener, their albums have been unusually solid with an amazing 1-3 hits per release. They did great guitar and drum music during the shitty late 90's modern rock era, the shitty Metallica 2000's, mallcore and Nu Metal garbage, and up to this day. You have bands like the Killers and Black Keys taking up their own reigns in the genre, but Nirvana have created a seamless blend of punk roots, 90's indie rock and early 80's Nirvana successfully created a kingdom for themselves that defined a generation of guitar music that I'd feel proud to expose my kid to. Dave was and still incredibly under-rated. -Thanks nirvana, I wish you were still here.

Krist is vastly underrated. Totally agree, really great, hooky basslines. Melodic, almost beatle-esque. Kurt and eventually Dave Grohl were more popular, but he was key in that band. Apparently he was the one who came up with the final Teen Spirit arrangement when Kurt brought the riff to rehearsal (all of them co-wrote the track).

It was just a normal saturday night in my hometown. Go to the pub, drink, go to the club, take pills, get fucked up. Sister knocks on my door at 10am "wanna go and see Nirvana at Reading?" no i just wanna sleep for a thousand years. Missed the best gig ever. My sister loved it. Reading 92 is my favourite Nirvana gig.

In 8th grade at a Catholic school a few friends & I convinced the school to do a talent show. They made us call this song Happy instead of Lithium. They tried stopping us on the "I kill you" line but it was sure fun watching a few nuns trying to stop the feedback in a gym when I walked off with the guitar leaning on the amp. We had to turn in lyrics prior but I'm pretty sure they didn't read past "cause I found god".

I remember it being 2012. I was born in 2000. My older brother showed me Nirvana and I became obsessed. I found this a bit later and showed my Mom, who still recalls where she was when Kurt died. Her and I were dead silent until I quietly asked, "can you hear-" and she cut me off with awh, "the crowd singing along?" Amazing. I love you, Kurt. Here I am. 2022 crying for a friend who's favorite song was Lithium. RIP Sierra

It must have made Kurt feel amazing to hear all the people singing along with his lyrics I grew up in elementary school, junior high and high school listening to Nirvana The very first rock song I ever heard was smells like teen spirit when I was a kid, I remember listening to nevermind on CD over and over during my childhood in the 90s i was always mystified by how one man could form songs like this intense and deep in meaning We miss you Kurt.

i love this song so much, it's so life affirming. for a lot of my life i felt like an outsider who is trying to find his place in the world (i still feel like this btw). whenever i listen to this song it reminds me that its ok to feel this way and that you shouldn't feel ashamed about being a loner and just try to enjoy the joys of life whilst you're still around to experience them :)
