to those who dont understand the concept of songmeanings:

i dont go here to talk about the greatest songs and bands im come here to get some fucking knowledge on music and get help interpreting songs. if youre gonna offer a comment can you at least try to write some kind of meaning????? nobody cares about who's favorite song this is. if youre gonna say something like that though..try not to make it sound like a damn fact. it offends many people as you are making it seem like what you say goes. once someone says "this song sucks," those who disagree will attack you, calling you musically challenged or some crap like that. im not ragging on the people who leave a comment saying its their fave song. im pissed at the people who think theyre the shit casting insults on songs which a lot of people may like PLUS MAKING IT A STATEMENT, not opinion. and i realize i said "nobody cares about who's favorite song this is" i didnt quite mean that---i just get annoyed when im looking through 5 pgs of 'good song" over and over again when the purpose of this site is for posting possible meanings to songs.

excuse my thoughts all over the place, when i get mad i speak out of order and bizarrely

OH YEAH!! the person who said nirvana was barely musically average on the first page: GO TO HELL!!! its comments like that that anger me so. nirvana must have been good--they turned rock into an entirely new direction. its fine if you dnt like them and think theyre terrible--im just saying that nothing below average can be so popular. what a stupid thing to say! dnt fucking diss any band like that i could go on a completely different rant on this but i think ppl reading this are prolly getting mad at me :p

whatever-- just dnt be ignorant ppl

and thank you "ill stylie" you made an OPINION and made an effort to INTERPRETATION

Guitar player especially rag on Nirvana because practically all the guitar work on their albums was very simple and easy to learn. Anyone with a brain however will be aware that difficulty has no real bearing on the quality of the music. Nirvana was good, they were somewhat catchy, just accept it. And speaking as someone who has A) chronic depression they're whole life, and B) kicked heroin/opiates repeatedly... (and also C for someone who hates identifying themselves by their issues)...uh, what was my point? Oh yeah, he totally killed himself. If there truly is a god up there and he...

You must be from the snowflake generation. That is, considering how easily you got your little feelings hurt. Run to momma and suckle her/his titty, but for God's sake shut the fuck up. @writtenspikes
