Nirvana Drain You lyrics

[markisbr]

My favorite Nirvana song. Totally underrated

[runertje]

That “I like you” at the end of the chorus is what makes me love this song, so amazingly sung

[agustinamansur]

"i don't care what you think unless it is about me". This is one of my quotes of life😥

[nathanielkemple]

Kurt Cobain actually stated that this was one of his favorite songs that he made

[andrewcriscione]

There's nothing more romantic than chewing each other's meat and passing it back and forth.

[mandersen]

This is one of Kurt's BEST lyrics imo !!!

[mewadays]

The most loved introvert of his generation.

[SoCalRegisteredNurse]

I was 17/18 when this came out. It was a great time to be a teen and see this music all unfold in real time. This is one of my favorites from them. This and “On a Plain.”

[thegloomining]

that breakdown at 1:50 gives me Pink Floyd vibes and i love it

[AGGROPDX]

Those 94 dislikes are probably nickelback fans

[crunkybrewster]

One thing i always loved about Nirvana's music was Kurt's execution of harmony. This song in particular displays good use of it.


Lyrics, I never knew what the hell this song was about as a teen until many years later. My guess was co-dependency in relationships. He had a way with words in this one. A lot of what sounds like dirty love making.

[waltuh]

Reminds me of summer days I didn't had with friends that did't exist

[nobodycares]

He's immortalize himself with his music

[eviemcweenie]

The whole “Chew your meat for you, Pass it back and forth, in a passionate kiss, from my mouth to yours, sloppy lips to lips, you’re my vitamins, i like you” is just one of the best lyrics ever like who else would write something as lovable as that.

[sonsofthewestredwhiteblue]

No one has ever come close to sounding the way these guys did. So much variety in their composition and ALL BOSS

[spellicup]

one thing i love about this song its ability to be interpreted differently for everyone. My interpretation of it is an experience with a toxic partner in a bad relationship. My fav lyric being “you taught me everything about a poison apple” what’s your guys’ interpretation??

[salmon_chan]

Man, I'm really sad this band is gone, I really wish that Kurt didn't die cause this band is lit, like its got the fashion sense and the music taste, Kurt was really inspiring and so was his band members Krist and Dave. Lets just say, RIP Kurt, King Of Grunge.

[rkburgess]

I like the scream towards the end of the bridge.

[danieladams]

He had a sqeeky toy and a hairspray bottle in the silent part of the song. Watch the drain you biography with butch vig

[steph]

one of my fav songs. it’s so underrated
