nirvana - hormoaning ep [liner notes] lyrics

in billboard, the magazine published december 14, 1991, nevermind was #6 in the cd hit ranking and the single smells like teen spirit was #23 in the single ranking. nirvana used to be described as the hopeful band from seattle before they produced the first record. however, nirvana is now one of the most popular bands in the us. the music they play doesn’t stick to any formalities and leads heavy metal in the new generation, therefore it is called alternative heavy rock. i will neither write more details about alternative heavy rock, nor investigate their music from professional eyes. anyway, all i can say is that the music of nirvana influences a lot of teenagers today

nirvana’s commercial success is the biggest mystery in the music scene. i don’t want you to misunderstand. i didn’t say nirvana did not have enough ability to get ‘platinum disk prize,’ but n0body could expect they would be such a famous band. the reason people think nirvana’s success is a mystery is that geffen (the record label that nirvana and some other popular bands – such as guns n’ roses – belong to), sold only a few nevermind [cd’s] at first but a lot of young people bought it and nirvana got big money even then. but i think nirvana themselves are very surprised about this incident. actually, i had a chance to interview kurt cobain (vocals, guitar) during english concert tours (their supporting acts were their favorite groups, shonen knife and captain america, by the way). he said the following:

“i didn’t expect we would be so famous. i didn’t even expect that our cd would be in the top 100 ranking in billboard. you see, we had been in europe before the great fuss. i don’t want to relate with this fuss because i hate that a lot of fans are waiting for us at the airport.”

kurt cobain seemed like he was saying “don’t lose your mind” to himself during the interview. (personal opinion) maybe they know a lot of musicians who lost their thoughts and became the toy of m-ss media. so kurt cobain is protecting himself before he goes the same way. nirvana will come to j-pan pretty soon so that you will be able to understand what i am trying to say. because they will come to j-pan, i will advise you about their concert. first thing i have to tell is that the concert is always unsociable. and also they are easily influenced by the environment so it depends on your luck whether the concert is very nice or boring

this cd is released just for j-pan [and australia]. i’d like to introduce each song on this mini-album, but we don’t even know what songs will be on the cd. by one j-panese record company’s information, two of the songs from the smells like teen spirit cd single, which are even in his youth and aneurysm. it may also include some songs which were broadcast by bbc radio-1 in england. it may be just a rumor, but one of them may be their favorite song by the vaselines

i think that most of the people who bought this mini-cd have nevermind too. but if it is the first time to buy nirvana’s cd for you, i recommend you to experience nevermind. i’m sure you’ll like it too
