[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]SLTS is overrated rubbish. A one hit wonder if Cobain never died.[/quote]

It's fine if you don't like it/them but it was a massively popular song and they had 2 successful albums with a number of hits.[/quote]

Right, and I’ll add, I’m not a nirvana fan, but it’s not just the success of the albums.[b] It’s that they fundamentally were part of the culture shift with music and in terms of the whole grunge scene. They weren’t the only part of that culture shift, but they were a big part of it.[/b]

I don’t think that people are saying that SLTS is a song we should all automatically love. It was more that this song, the video, the other albums, Nirvana in general, and the grunge movement was definitive for GenX and that song sort of represented that more than any other.

The song and video was parodied by weird Al so it definitely had a cultural impact. [/quote]

NP and + 1 million. I wonder if that PP was even alive back then? It was like Mariah Carey and Madonna and a bunch of cheesy hair bands and soft rock and then suddenly…Nirvana/grunge. It was a huge cultural shift.[/quote]

This is a website for middle aged moms.  Of course it's mostly pop and soft rock hits here.[/quote]
