There’s incredible power in One More Time too though
TBH as much as Nirvana's music was ace as **** I think Kurt Cobain's vocals were actually the true star of Nirvana. I can literally think of no vocalist before or since who could express what he expressed. Who could link hardcore, alternative, and something inexpressibly... perfect in a way I can't describe. Something that was both perfectly 90s and perfectly ageless. I mean you could put ten out of ten of the most well respected hardcore or alternative vocalists of all time in front of Nirvana and they wouldn't have sold a tenth of what they did.
