Free Music Notes for Smells Like Teen Spirit
Free Music Review: Even in His Youth
Hit: 4 Stars
I have never been a Nirvana fan, so this is not a bias review. I grew up listening to the mellower end of alternative (Siouxsie & the Banshees, The Cure, etc.) so the "Nevermind" album never did anything for me.
My sister bought this single back in 91, and after I heard the b-side "Even in His Youth" I was blown away and had to own it. It's a heavy rocker with a catchy melody. The rest of the songs on the disc are disposable. Get this single for "Even in His Youth". You won't be disappointed.
Free Music Review: Even in his youth + Smells like teen spirit + Aneurysm = THE BEST
Hit: 5 Stars
Let me start off by saying, I am a die-hard Nirvana fan like most of you (you must be if your looking at their singles). This CD contains 4 of THE BEST Nirvana songs, they are pure musical genius. I have run across these songs and they are, dare I say, my favorite Nirvana songs. To find that they are all on one single, wow. Every day I regret being only 352 days old when this CD came out. I was born 10 or 15 years too late. If you are tinking of buying this, JUST DO IT! You can only find "Even In His Youth" on the Hormoaning EP from Australia for $10 and up, IF YOU'RE LUCKY. Aneurysm, well, it simply OWNS. You'll see what I mean when you buy it, and you know you will buy it. Because I said so.Free Music Review: if he didn't have a gun....how did he shoot himself?
Hit: 1 Stars
If this is not THE most over rated CD ever, then it is certainly a contender for the title. If it wasn't for Cobain's suicide, no one would care about Nirvana today. But, just like Jim Morrison has kept the Doors on the "cult following" list, Cobain's death will keep everyone wanna-be emo child wistful of shooting themselves.
As for the music, I could only say that shooting yourself doesn't make someone a "great writer" or a "great musician" and Nirvana proves this though and though. On this particular CD, Cobain mumbles his way though at least 1/3 of the lyrics while making absolutely no sense during the other 2/3 that are intelligible. In one particular song he outright lies when he sings the lyrics "no, I don't have a gun"...and I think we all know now that he in fact did have a gun.
Free Music Review: Mmmmmm, Smells Good!!!
Hit: 5 Stars
Theres one word I have to sum up this single - 'classic'. You gotta have it if you're into this kinda music!!!Free Music Review: Wow this is unparalleled
Hit: 5 Stars
Short and sweet - this is a great single. One of the best ever, probably. Teen Spirit was a teenage anthem with good reason, it had amazing sound, the supreme rocking riff, deep relatable lyrics, and passion. Following Teen Spirit is another one of Nirvana's best works ever Even In His Youth. Kurt wrote pain songs like other people would write love songs, and they're incredible. I can't imagine why Even In His Youth isn't on the greatest hits album, it has the same passion as YKYR and the same groove as Floyd the Barber. After that is Aneurysm, I think the live version is a bit better but it's still a great Nirvana song with brilliant vocal yelling.
Nirvana's got tons of worth while material and this is one part of it.
