Cobain o toj "legendarnoj pjesmi":
Citiraj:
I was trying to write the ultimate pop song. I was basically trying to rip off the Pixies. I have to admit it. When I heard the Pixies for the first time, I connected with that band so heavily that I should have been in that band—or at least a Pixies cover band. We used their sense of dynamics, being soft and quiet and then loud and hard.
Pa dalje:
"Cobain came up with the song's title when his friend Kathleen Hanna, at the time the lead singer of the riot grrrl punk band Bikini Kill, spray painted "Kurt Smells Like Teen Spirit" on his wall. Since they had been discussing anarchism, punk rock, and similar topics, Cobain interpreted the slogan as having a revolutionary meaning. What Hanna actually meant, however, was that Cobain smelled like the deodorant Teen Spirit, which his then-girlfriend Tobi Vail wore."
Sve grdje od grdjeg.I ovo jedna od najboljih pjesama svih vremena???
Ajme meniii...
Dovoljno je primijetiti glavnu rijec u naslovu pjesme a to je TEEN da bi se odmah shvatilo zbog cega je ta pjesma tako popularna...
