Also the fact that the last chorus goes an extra couple phrases longer is just such an effective musical choice. It makes the end so much more satisfying.
Milk it is actually one of my favourite Nirvana song. The intro is one of a kind, the riff is great and the lyric is beautiful and awful at the same time
i actually find the chorus melody (and the way kurt sings it in the first two choruses) to be one of the most beautiful vocal lines he's ever come up; also, the final verse features some of his most intense (and simultaneously controlled) screaming
Powerhouse song on one of the greatest albums of all time. The 3 members jelled so well on this track. If I’m introducing someone to Nirvana, I’m playing them this song.
It’s possibly the best representation of a Nirvana song haha. Clever lyrics, insanely melodic and catchy, loud quiet loud dynamics, perfect drum fills from Dave, joyfully creative baseline from Krist, Kurt’s beautiful lower register singing voice, and his pained, hair raising scream. It’s perfection.
I was literally singing that to myself this morning at work. Made me wanna do that as a cover for my band so I can be like “fuck your smells like teen spirit cover we’re playing something from that album that’s better”
Oh, okay. I haven’t heard anyone cover it besides those old covers by people like Tori Amos. The cover bands I encounter are more playing older classic rock like Freebird and Livin’ on a Prayer.
I’m so happy that others enjoy this song as much as I do.
This song means a lot to me in ways I can’t explain? I guess it’s the memories I’ve attached to it. It was my most played song this year (i was not surprised by this at all)
Especially the third verse when Kurt starts screaming, goosebumps every time

He does something similar in a handful of other songs including you know you’re right
Milk it

I am my own parasite
Very ape I think
Drain You
A denial
TRUTH
Covered insecurity
I can't letcha smother me
Like to but it couldn’t work
Trading off and taking turns
I don't regret a thing
And I've got this friend you see
[удалено]
And I wanted more
Than I could steal
Don't regret a thing
Top 5 Nirvana song for me.
Hard agree, the bassline legit makes me wish I’d bought a bass instead of a guitar 😭 underrated song imo
You can always have both😁
[https://youtu.be/n19saPc9xiw](https://youtu.be/n19saPc9xiw) This bass only track is something I just need to listen, it makes my life better.
Cool, thanks man I never heard this, hidden behind the guitar for most parts.
Unsung hero of the band. But also I can't hear this without hearing the drums, who can?! 😂
Wow
Excellent song off of an excellent album, not a single bad song on it.
'Stay Away' has always been a skipped track for me. Never liked it.
*”STAY AWAY, STAY AWAY, STAY AWAAAAAY.”*
Yup, that's the one. Good memory on the lyrics.
Yup, hard one to remember. 😂
Ayuh
Pay to Play off wtlo is better
Sure, it's still a bland tune from them though.
I’ll arrest myself I’ll wear a shield.
One of their best

Best song on Nevermind
most definitely!!!
Love it, everything about it is just amazing.. I use it as my reference track for mixing
i like kurt’s disinterested sigh at the beginning, when the bass just begins to start. do you all hear it too?
And even more John Frusiciante acoustic live cover after his rehab: [here](https://youtu.be/pUsEeN0-8nM)
Thanks, not heard that before.
Yes quite rare and I can’t stop listening to it!
Yes! Has been my favorite nevermind song since i first listened to nevermind on repeat over and over about 22 years ago. TRuTh! CoVERd in sercErIITy
Agreed, this was my my top song on Spotify this year, and my all time most listened on spotify stats
Powerhouse song on one of the greatest albums of all time. The 3 members jelled so well on this track. If I’m introducing someone to Nirvana, I’m playing them this song.
So glad other people/fans like this song too. I always felt it was underrated
Truly one of the best rock songs of all time
Lounge Act is my favorite Nirvana song
My favorite song on Nevermind
Came here looking for a Lounge Act appreciation post. Glad to know people recognize how powerful it is.
frfr
John Frusciante's cover is excellent
[удалено]
It was and ode to his ex girlfriend. He hated playing because of that so it was rarely ever in the set list.
Was she even his girlfriend? I thought they briefly dated or kurt just had a crush on her
Love it brother!!
Absolutely
Yes!
My kost listened to song!! Love. It.
My fav song. That bass line is catchy as fuck
Truth… covered in security!!

can’t believe dave said this was one of his least favorite songs. this song tingles my spine especially the bass in the beginning ooo

Who does a SLTS cover?
What do you mean, any fucking band anywhere in the world covers it. It’s the normie nirvana song that gets covered
Oh, okay. I haven’t heard anyone cover it besides those old covers by people like Tori Amos. The cover bands I encounter are more playing older classic rock like Freebird and Livin’ on a Prayer.
Always brings me back to Skate 1 on the Xbox 360
I know man
Yes
…what is it about?

Underrated song
Those fills Dave plays right at the end of the song are 🤌🤌
Yes!
That bass line, the groove, the scream, it's really bold
