This song reminds me of being 16 years old and listening to this crazy band with the nastiest, most catchiest tracks I’d ever heard. I first heard Nirvana on cassette in the summer of 1992 at North Arm Cove. My friend got the tape off his older sister and I can remember listening to it on the floor of a bedroom on a shitty cassette machine, really, really close to the speakers. I was instantly taken with it. This started an ongoing Love affair with the band that continues to this day. Nevermind remains both my proud and guilty pleasure. Of course, In Utero is a far more challenging and, in many ways, caustic and clever piece of Songwriting and Engineering. However, notwithstanding the slick and thin Andy Wallace sheen on this album that makes it immediately playable and recognisable on any radio or Stereo system, this album still packs a mighty punch and is a mean machine. “I love myself better than you, I know it’s wrong but what should I do?”... That about sums it up really.
