    Growing up as a musician I was always trying to be the contrarian that hated Nirvana because they were so popular and their songs were so ‘simple’. I’ve since realized the error of my ways

      Yep, just because it’s simple doesn’t mean it isn’t good. The polar opposite is also true. Just because it’s complicated doesn’t make it good cough cough Tool cough cough

    I will never not click on that. I’ve probably heard this song a thousand times in my life and I still love it.

    Also, one of my proudest days as a parent was hearing both of my kids singing along to this song in the back seat of the car.

    Really enjoying that younger generations are still getting into this. Music is the bridge, you know? Intergenerational empathy.

    Also, if this is your gateway drug to the world of grunge, good times are heading your way. I’m in my old age and still finding bands from that era that passed me by.

      I agree with the sentiment completely, but I grew up with this 😆. Still enjoying it as much as I did back then. :)

      Definitely with you on finding bands of yore that I wasn’t aware of at the time. A few months ago, I was on a Pat Benatar kick having never really listened to anything of hers and only familiar with “Hit Me With Your Best Shot”.
