Most of those who followed his rise and fall will tell you that Kurt Cobain of Nirvana was a mystery wrapped inside a riddle wrapped inside an enigma wrapped inside a stiff flannel shirt. Somehow, he managed to be both overrated and underrated at the same time. I never bought into the commonly held belief that he was the voice of Generation X (I think he would laugh at that if he were alive today ... and then throw up), but I also feel that he remains one of the most misunderstood and underrated musicians of the past generation.
Anyway, here is "Smells Like Teen Spirit" played backwards. The lyrics can be interpreted in a variety of ways. Some observers look at Cobain's fascination with his own death and use that to derive some truth, clue or meaning about his suicide in these words. Be your own judge.
