Nevermind

Meaning

A sarcastic anthem about apathy, rebellion, and the contradictions of youth culture. Cobain intended it as a satire of conformist teen angst, but it became the very anthem it mocked.

Trivia

The title came from Kathleen Hanna spray-painting 'Kurt smells like Teen Spirit' on his wall, referencing a deodorant his girlfriend used. Cobain didn't know it was a deodorant brand.

Lyric

With the lights out, it's less dangerous / Here we are now, entertain us
