I've decided to post this on most of the Nirvana song's pages.
I've read most of the posts regarding the songs and stuff. I think everyone should stop arguing about the meanings and telling others to "Fuck Off and Die and Burn In Hell" and just post what you think the song means. Kurt Cobain said to not over analyze his songs, and most of you are. Some songs are meant to be analyzed and studied, but not all. To me, many songs mean many things. For example, 'Heart-Shaped Box', 'Rape Me', 'Dumb', and 'Pennyroyal Tea' all have multiple meanings for me. I think Kurt either wrote about things that were happening at the time, things he was remembering, or he took older songs and added to them since new things had happened. Or maybe I'm wrong. That's just a theory. I have many others, but I'm not going to waste my time explaining them because for all I know he just wrote whatever came to him. I just think Nirvana was THE Ultimate band and revolutionized music. 'Rape Me' is my favorite song by them. It means so many things to me, and not just sexual rape. I think you should all stop this fighting shit and get over it. Different people have different views, and everyone is entitled to their opinion, but fighting about it is stupid and an insult to the music. Some of you all yourself 'hard-core' Nirvana fans and say you worship him and love him and would die to bring him back. If you WERE worshipping him, you'd stop all this pointless fighting because he wouldn't have liked it and you'd look like an idiot if the person you thought was God would call you a dumbass or something. And people are bringing up whether Kurt loved Courtney and whether he was murdered or not. That has nothing to do with this. And no one should opinionate whether he loved her or not, because even though it looked one way, it might have been another. And stop commenting on his suicide/murder/death if you just hear it and believe it. I've spent about 7 hours reading about his death, and have come to my own conclusion, and I'm not going to post it because it's a self-contradiction. But even if someone spent a HUNDRED hours reading about it, they wouldn't know if he loved her. Only he did, and he's dead. Now, if you maybe WANT to get your facts straight, go to www.JusticeForKurt.com or www.CobainCase.com, because it's pretty interesting, and if you're such a 'hard-core', you'd read about it. And saying All Apologies was placed last on the album because it was his farewell to the world without any proof is unbelievable. For all you know, he was murdered, and that's an insult to his memory. Some 'hard-core' fan you are, eh? Don't opinionate without knowing the facts, and don't start arguments over something so meaningless. If you listen to Nirvana, do it because you like the songs, do it because they mean something to you, do it for the music, but don't argue over what the lyrics mean. I belive Kurt once said the lyrics were the least important things in his songs. To me they're the most important, but for the 'hard-core's they shouldn't mean anything, since they worship the ground he spat on. I don't mean to sound like some Nirvana-wannabe-know-it-all, I've only been into the band for about a year, and I've just started getting into the era of when they were together and reading about his death, the bands success, and after his death, but from what I feel, this needs to stop. It's disgusting. Don't put others down over something like this. It's an insult to everyone who reads the posts, to everyone who listens to Nirvana, and to Kurt Cobain.
If you wanna go ahead and bash me and argue about this, go ahead. My AIM is in my profile. But if you're just going to say "BURN IN HEL U LUSUR" or something retarded like that or even worse, don't bother. I'll just ignore it. But I will talk to people who have common sense, and ignore some little 12 year old who doesn't know what the bloody fuck they're talking about and want to look cool in front of the older people.
