I still don't understand what was the appeal of SLTS over all the other better songs on the album. Now this is a very stupid guess, but I think it was the fact that you couldn't really hear what Cobain was saying. When I heard that song for the first time it was kind of haunting, like a dying mans last breaths. Then it kicks into the chorus and you're like holy ****. It's basically the same as most other popular Nirvana songs, only the sound is worse.
