Nirvana - Nevermind

“Let’s start this off without any words” .

Words from the now-immortal @kurtcobain Kurt Cobain. He has always been a figure who intrigued me. He reached success purposefully, yet was not able to find happiness within it. He took many deliberate steps out of love, yet was not able to give enough to himself. .

Cobain’s lyric writing style blends with the anger that the rest of his @nirvana.official.band Nirvana bandmates channeled through their instruments. I did start this video off with a segment from the vinyl without words, and then used the quote above as the first words heard. The opening music is quite angry! However, Kurt’s lyrics were often just collections of phrases he thought sounded cool but didn’t necessarily assign them much meaning during his writing process. The lyrics of the classic “Smells Like Teen Spirit” exemplify this to the T. Together, you c an dissect a million possible meanings. Yet, alone, each line kind of is just that...something that Kurt thought of that sounded cool. .

This record is from a @target Target store from Sandy Springs, Georgia, which is right outside of Atlanta. .

I am curious, though: at what times do you start something off without any words? .
