This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Load up on guns, bring your friends
It's fun to lose and to pretend
She's over-bored and self assured
Oh no, I know a dirty word
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello
With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino, a mosquito, my libido
Yeah, hey, yay
I'm worse at what I do best
And for this gift I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello
With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino, a mosquito, my libido
Yeah, hey, yay
And I forget just why I taste
Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard, it's hard to find
Oh well, whatever, never mind
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello
With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino, a mosquito, my libido
A denial, a denial, a denial, a denial, a denial
A denial, a denial, a denial, a denial
It's fun to lose and to pretend
She's over-bored and self assured

Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
The greatest and most influencial song ever written. The song was aimed at the people the band didn't want to listen to their music (jocks/preps) who wound up listening to the music anyways.
Let me first say, before I get bashed. That I am a HUGE Nirvana fan. I own every CD/DVD/Book.<br /> <br /> Smells Like Teen Spirit is Nirvana's sell out song. Yeah, here it comes. I know right. <br /> Smells Like Teen Spirit is in fact probably one of Nirvana's worst songs. Yet, people who hear this song on the radio, and then download Nevermind think it's the best thing since sliced bread. It's not. It's a fucking joke. Dont get me wrong. I love Nirvana, and I love Kurt. But this is a shit song. There are so many better songs by Nirvana, and people always say this is the best. It's not. You want some fucking talent. You go out and buy the Boxset. Buy fucking Bleach, buy everything they have. This song is a stab at Jocks, and preps, although they didnt have preps back then. You were right about that. But it is most certainly not the best Nirvana song. And it is definetley not the most influential song ever written. And it wasn't written. if you know anything about Nirvana/Kurt, you'd know he never really wrote songs until the last minute, often when they were in the studio about to record. The same can be said for SLTS. There are atleast 3 different versions, and lyrical wording to this song.<br /> <br /> Let the bashing begin. Cmon then.
Yeah, look at you being a cunt. This is the comments section, I can express whatever I feel here, aslong as it's related to the song. And that is related to the song. And yes, People do care, obviously if there's 1314 comments on this song alone. How's about you shut the fuck up.
Wow, look at you being cool using your cuss words. I see where this argument will lead to and I don't feel like dealing with it.
"how is about you shut the fuck up?"<br /> Illiterate AND a wanker. Congratulations, I mean it.
Everyone is entitled his or her own opinion. I'm not making a judgment as to whether the song is good or bad. Rolling Stone magazine considers it essential Nirvana listening: rollingstone.com/news/story/5937559/the_100_greatest_guitarists_of_all_time/11. If anyone was bashing, it was ZeroCoolCrashOverRyd.
you might want to check that your facts are straight before you go posting comments. preps have been around since the 1970's. if you got that wrong, who knows what else you got wrong.
i like how zero was like "well before i get bashed" and "i am a huge nirvana fan" and then five seconds after someone puts something up in reply he just spouts curses. very intelligent dude. good comeback!
I'm taking zerocoolcrashoverryd's side even tho I think the song is pretty good it's seriously overrated.
2nd favorite nirvana,Kobain was the best singer songwriter, in my eyes, ever, its a sahme of what happened but you can still listen to them so thats cool i guess!<br />
Ha. Yeah, it's a great song. Seriously, though, most influential song ever written? That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Not even close. Not even a little. That's off base, off the reservation, out of town, overseas, and out in space. <br /> <br /> I like how this entire reply section somehow didn't even begin until like 8 years after the original comment. And the first reply was from a guy going by a username that references a movie that's 6 years older than even that (Hackers). Good movie though. Totally a tech-gen classic.

I'll Give Credit As To Smells Like Teen Spirit Being A Good Song, But I Think It Should Be Looked At As Nirvana's Most Influential Song...Not Their Best, But Either Way It Is Still Good. That Is My Opinion, I Respect All Of Yours And Know You Each Have A Right To One, But I Do Ask You To Stop Having Virtual Disputes Trying To Prove Who's Opinion Is The Right One.

Before I get bashed, I would like to say I love Nirvana. Probalbly if I made a list they would be in the top 10 or 20. I have listened to over 500 bands so that is pretty high. Anyways, I would like to say this song is overatted. It is not one of the best in the 90s, but would I guess be better than a lot of songs. I would like to say that many people think Nirvana was the most influential in the 90s, but for me it is Modest Mouse. They were so underrated, and had many songs better than this one, but as I said before, this is a great band. Definetely one of my favorites.
ok first ZeroCoolCrashOverRyd this ISN'T a sell out this is how he was feeling after he got dumped and wrote from his heart and soul, so please tell me how writing from your heart and soul (which is how they did all the songs) is a sell out?<br /> <br /> second waitingtornever go fck yourself people have depression and bipolar and shit if it's not taken care of you can have a bad episode and kill yourself (a psychologist diagnosed me with both) and when you have depression like he did it's a happy then bam kill and whatever can get rid of the pain<br /> <br /> I LOVE KURT COBAIN he wrote from his heart and soul did whatever he had to for his music and I think he was murdered R.I.P. kurt cobain your daughter will remind us of you
Hey, MUSICorDEATH...I Don't Know What The Hell You Are Talking About...I Have Nothing Against Kurt Cobain. I Know About Bipolar And Depression But I'm Not Talking About Either Of Them...I'm Talking About The Song. I Respect Your Opinion And Only Stated What I Felt...As For The Little Jingle...I Was Just Fucking Around. I Make Fun Of Celebrities In General Whether They're Dead Or Not. I'm Waitingtornever Incase You Didn't Know...Just Had To Change My Account.
yo blogger et, well-spotted. i liked the Hackers reference too. Sick movie. I would also like to say that this song is quite overrated... but still pretty fun to play and sing. Cobain was one of the greatest songwriters ever.
waitingtornever: That was hilarious, dude!
tired of nirvana snobs crying about how smells like teen spirit is their worst song...i agree its not their best but come on its really good. its not a sell out song because kurt didnt write it to be famous. just happened that way. sorry nirvana couldnt be the indie band you wish it was.
@slashess I think it is about a social gathering, where the visitors ask the host(s) to entertain them, among other stuff.
Maybe it was Kurt that said "Here we are now, entertain us", hehe, but the lyricist wrote it down in his "poem".
