I had a similar experience to andersons,while I was at my cousins birthday and heard nirvana for the first time.
I dont remember how old I was ,but its a loong time ago

he played smells like teen spirit and the song just blew my mind,I still havent found another song to make me feel like that.
after that I went on to listen to all there other songs

to me nirvana is one of the greatest bands ever
but I can see what you guys mean,nirvana probably wouldnt have been so big today if he didnt shoot himself

sometimes the little poserbitches from around my time piss me off ,
like one day while I was walking home from school I saw this 14 year old girl with a spiked collar and a nirvana t-shirt who said she was going to a nirvana concert next summer

Nirvana, Nirvana, Nirvana... I discovered Nirvana at the young age of 11. I was sitting on the couch watching Vh1 with one of my friends and “Smells Like Teen Spirit” came on, honestly it was the greatest thing I’d ever heard. No song has ever really gave me that same feeling, but I was fucking 11. My mom wouldn’t let me buy the album because she knew Kurt Cobain hat shot himself, so until 8th grade when I bought every album, starting with “Nevermind” of course, I had only known “Teen Spirit”, but it was the greatest album I had ever listened to. Every song was amazing. I didn’t watch TV or play video games, all I did was listen to that album and all the other albums. I thought Kurt Cobain was a genius and a tragic hero, I worshiped him and thought suicide had to be the coolest thing ever. Fortunately when you get older, you’re not as retarded.

Everyone goes on about how Kurt Cobain is the best lyricist ever and he was the leader of “Generation X”, when really he was just a decent musician, his lyrics really aren’t anything more than things that sound deep, but really don’t mean anything, just strange little one-liners that he put into songs, but that’s what the people made him, I don’t know if he held himself in such high-esteem.

Nirvana was like a stepping stone to not liking just any old music, it made me laugh at hair metal, and hate rap music not only because it sounded shitty, but because of what it stood for. Kurt Cobain taught me to hate things like the  homophobic macho-man, and the KKK. I still like Nirvana’s music I guess, I don’t really listen to it much, but I’m not really in a “omg I couldn’t live without music” stage right now. So, yes Kurt Cobain and Nirvana are overrated, but I still love them because even though I’ve broadened my musical taste and learned to love other bands, I just don’t like them as much as I liked Nirvana.

I think he is a Legend. The thing with him is that you cant juge him now because his type of music is everywhere now and so many people are inspired by him.

To understand where people are coming from you need to go and buy "Best of the 80s" and listen to that. Because thats all the music that was around at the time. There was nothing like him before this.

He changed music into what it is now

I also love his music because it shows how he never wanted the fame... he hated it. you should watch the docs on him because they can show what he did also.
