1) Nirvana was a popular and highly influential American grunge band. The band formed in Aberdeen, Washington in 1987, and it was part of the Seattle grunge scene of the late 80s, alongside bands like Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains and Soundgarden. As their popularity rose, alternative rock became a dominant genre on American and Canadian radio and music television during the early-to-mid '90s.

In late 1987, Cobain and Novoselic recruited drummer Aaron Burckhard (1987–1988).The three practiced material from Cobain's Fecal Matter tape. After losing contact with Burckhard, the pair instead practised with Dale Crover of the Melvins, and Nirvana recorded its first demos in January 1988. Their first single, a cover version of "Love Buzz", a song by Dutch group 'Shocking Blue', was released in November 1988 on the Seattle independent record label Sub Pop. Their debut album, 'Bleach', was produced by Jack Endino and released in June 1989. Later that year, the band recorded the 'Blew EP' with producer Steve Fisk.

At the start of the new decade, the band commenced their first recording sessions to the follow-up album with producer Butch Vig, substituted their drummer by Dave Grohl and signed to DGC Records. The result, 'Nevermind', would eventually sell over seven million copies in the United States, and over 30 million worldwide.

In early 1993, Nirvana released "Puss"/"Oh, the Guilt", a split single with The Jesus Lizard, on the independent label Touch & Go. Meanwhile, the group chose Steve Albini as the producer to record its third album. 'In Utero' debuted at number one on the Billboard album chart in September the same year.

As Nirvana's frontman, Cobain found himself referred to in the media as the "spokesman of a generation", with Nirvana the "flagship band" of "Generation X", their third studio album 'In Utero' was considered to be a conscious attempt to shed their audience. While Nirvana's mainstream popularity waned in the months following its release, their core audience cherished the band's dark interior, particularly after their 1993 performance on MTV Unplugged with the Meat Puppets, a band that Cobain had always idolised, performing with them the songs Oh, Me, Plateau and Lake of Fire. It was later released and topped the charts in 1994.

Nirvana's brief run ended with the suicide of Cobain in 1994, but the band's popularity expanded in the years that followed. Eight years after Cobain's death, "You Know You're Right", an unfinished demo that the band recorded two months prior to Cobain's death, topped radio playlists around the world. Since their debut, the band has sold more than fifty million albums worldwide, including more than ten million copies of Nevermind in the US alone. Nirvana remains a consistent presence on radio stations worldwide.

In 2004, the box set "With the Lights Out", a collection of radio sessions, home demos, studio demos and outtakes, was released. A year later, "Sliver: The Best Of The Box" was released, a compilation of selected "WTLO" tracks, but with 3 new tracks including a track from the famous "Fecal Matter" demo.

Band members: Kurt Cobain - vocals, guitar (1987–1994), Krist Novoselic - bass (1987–1994) Dave Grohl - drums, vocals (1990–1994)

Prior members:Aaron Burckhard - drums (1987–1988), Dale Crover - drums (1988, 1990), Dave Foster - drums (1988), Chad Channing - drums (1988–1990), Jason Everman - guitar (1989), Dan Peters - drums (1990)

Touring members: Pat Smear - guitar (1993–1994), Lori Goldston - cello (1993–1994), Melora Creager - cello (1994)

2) Nirvana is a UK-based progressive rock band formed in 1967, primarily active in the late 1960s and early 1970s - and still sporadically active to the present day.

The band was formed in the summer of 1967 in an era when melodic pop/rock music with baroque and chamber arrangements and instrumentation was highly-prized. The band, consisted of two songwriter/performers - Greek-born Alex Spyropoulos and Irish-born Patrick Campbell-Lyons who met in London. They produced a number of singles (notably "Rainbow Chaser", "Pentecost Hotel", and "Tiny Goddess") for the fledgling Island Records label.

The band was signed by Island Records' founder Chris Blackwell in the era when he also signed the bands Traffic and Free.

In October 1967 the band released its first album - a concept album produced by Blackwell titled The Story of Simon Simopath. The album was probably the first narrative concept album ever released - predating story-driven concept albums such as The Pretty Things' S.F. Sorrow (December 1968), The Who's Tommy (April 1969) and The Kinks' Arthur (September 1969).

Musically, the group blended myriad musical styles including rock, pop, folk, jazz, Latin rhythms and classical music - primarily augmented by baroque chamber-style arrangements to create a unique entity.

The next year 1968 their follow-up album, All Of Us, featured a similar broad range of musical styles. Their third album To Markos III was released on the Pye label in 1969.

In 1971 the duo amicably separated for a while, with Campbell-Lyons the primary contributor to the next two Nirvana albums, Local Anaesthetic 1971, and Songs Of Love And Praise 1972. Campbell-Lyons subsequently worked as a solo artist and issued further albums: Me And My Friend 1973, Electric Plough 1981, and The Hero I Might Have Been 1983 though these did not enjoy commercial success.

The band reunited in 1985, successfully touring Europe and releasing a compilation album Black Flower 1987 containing some new material. (Black Flower had been the provisional title of their third album.) In the 1990s two further albums were released. Secret Theatre 1994 compiled rare tracks and demos, while Orange And Blue 1996 contained previously unreleased material including a tongue-in-cheek cover of the song "Lithium" originally recorded by the American grunge band Nirvana who released its first album in 1989, and who the band had successfully sued over use of the name Nirvana. The undisclosed terms of the settlement has apparently allowed the original Nirvana to continue using its name and issuing new recordings.

In 1999 the band released a three-disc CD anthology titled "Chemistry" including several previously-unreleased tracks and some new material.

Top musicians who played on Nirvana sessions include: Lesley Duncan, Herbie Flowers, Billy Bremner (later of Rockpile/Dave Edmunds fame), Luther Grosvenor, Wynder K. Frogg, Clem Cattini and the full lineup of rock band Spooky Tooth.

The group was in the school of baroque-flavored, melodic pop-rock music typified by The Beatles of "Rubber Soul" and "Revolver", The Beach Boys of Pet Sounds and God Only Knows, the Zombies of Odessey and Oracle and Time Of The Season, the Procol Harum of A Whiter Shade Of Pale, the Moody Blues of Days of Future Passed and Nights In White Satin and The Kinks of Waterloo Sunset. The majority of the tracks on Nirvana's albums fall into that broad genre of contemporary popular music - not easily categorized - but perhaps best described as the baroque or chamber strand of "progressive rock, soft rock or "orchestral pop".

Their first three albums were reissued on CD by Universal in 2003 and received critical acclaim. In 2005 Universal (Japan) reissued Local Anaesthetic and Songs Of Love And Praise.

As of late 2005 the founding members Alex Spyropoulos and Patrick Campbell-Lyons are still sporadically writing and recording.

3) Nirvana was a short-lived Finnish punk band formed in 1980, whose sole release was a 7" vinyl with tracks "Kielletyt leikit" and "Kuljen kaupungilla" with 200 pressings.

---

4) Nirvana was a Dutch pop group, formed in 1985 by producers Bernard Oattes and Rob van Schaik. The group consisted of Anthony Moendir, Frits Broekrits and Annie Alberti and have released one single, "Say When", which became a big hit. The group split up in 1987.

---

5) Nirvana is a side project of The Skaters' James Ferraro. Primitive droning drum beats and swirling synthesizers.

---

6) Nirvana was a Slovenian hard-rock band in the early seventies. They appear on several collections (YU Record Collector Dream, Boom Festival 72).

Dumb
Nirvana Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm not like them
But I can pretend
The sun is gone
But I have a light
The day is done
But I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb

Or maybe just happy
Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy

My heart is broke
But I have some glue
Help me inhale
And mend it with you
We'll float around
And hang out on clouds
Then we'll come down

And have a hangover
Have a hangover
Have a hangover
Have a hangover

Skin the sun
Fall asleep
Wish away
The soul is cheap
Lesson learned
Wish me luck
Soothe the burn
Wake me up

I'm not like them
But I can pretend
The sun is gone
But I have a light
The day is done
But I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb

Maybe just happy
Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy

I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Nirvana's "Dumb" suggest a complex emotional state of the singer. The singer begins by stating that they are not like the people they are surrounded by, but they can pretend. This suggests a sort of alienation or disconnect from the singer's environment or society. The line "The sun is gone, but I have a light" can be interpreted as the singer feeling a sense of self-sufficiency, despite lacking the light the sun provides. The following line "The day is done, but I'm having fun" suggests that the singer is enjoying their life, even in the face of adversity.

The pre-chorus of the song changes the tone, introducing the idea that the singer's heart is broken. They ask for someone to help them mend it using glue and to inhale with them. This could suggest that the singer is dealing with drug addiction as a way of coping with their emotional pain. The chorus reiterates the idea of the singer feeling dumb but potentially happy. The repetition of "Think I'm just happy" could suggest that the singer is trying to convince themselves that they are happy despite their struggles.

The bridge of the song suggests a kind of listlessness and desire to escape. The imagery of skinning the sun and falling asleep could suggest a kind of dream state, a wish fulfillment. The soul being cheap could imply that the singer is grappling with their own sense of worthlessness. The line "Soothe the burn, wake me up" could suggest that the singer is experimenting with drugs to alleviate their emotional pain.

Line by Line Meaning

I'm not like them
I am different from others

But I can pretend
I can put on a facade

The sun is gone
The happiness in my life is gone

But I have a light
But I still have some hope

The day is done
The day is over

But I'm having fun
But I am enjoying myself

I think I'm dumb
I believe I am not intelligent

Or maybe just happy
Or maybe I'm just content with my life

Think I'm just happy
I feel like I'm only happy

My heart is broke
My heart is broken

But I have some glue
But I have a way to fix it

Help me inhale
Help me breathe

And mend it with you
And fix it with your help

We'll float around
We'll be carefree and happy

And hang out on clouds
And be above all the troubles

Then we'll come down
But eventually, we'll have to come back to reality

And have a hangover
And face the consequences of our actions

Skin the sun
Peel away the brightness of the day

Fall asleep
Go to sleep

Wish away
Wish to escape reality

The soul is cheap
My soul feels worthless

Lesson learned
I have learned my lesson

Wish me luck
Hope for success in my future endeavors

Soothe the burn
Soothe the emotional pain and hurt

Wake me up
Help me come out of this trance-like state

I think I'm dumb
I still believe I'm not intelligent

Maybe just happy
Or maybe I am just content with who I am

Think I'm just happy
I feel like I am only happy

I think I'm dumb
I still think that I am unintelligent

I think I'm dumb
I think that intelligence is not my strong suit

I think I'm dumb
I feel like I am not capable of succeeding

I think I'm dumb
I am still unsure of my worth and intelligence

I think I'm dumb
I am still struggling with my perception of myself

I think I'm dumb
I cannot help but feel like I lack intelligence

I think I'm dumb
I doubt my intelligence and abilities

@michaelinglis567

50w↑13

I dont at all. The artist more than anything wants creative control of their art. How would you feel if you poured everything you had into art that people loved then you died and everyone and their dog decided to post videos with your art mixed into their art and present it as "Your band name" leading people to belive its directly from you? Kids these days idea of Nirvana isnt what my idea of Nirvana is because kids these days think the t shirts at walmart and marshalls are authentic Nirvana artwork which it isnt at all. The most disgusting thing you can do as a fan of a band with deceased members is put out your art under thier name. Kurt and other artists like him put a lot of time and effort into presenting their work in the way in which they wanted it to be viewed so posting shit like this is pathetic. If you want to make art thats great! Just do it under your own fucking name. Its really really really lame to use other people work to promote your art in any way, shape or form. Thats not an opinion its a fact that this generation was way too spoiled to ever understand.

This is very wonderful. Due to Nirvana’s short career we never got to see the full potential that the band and Kurt had (music video wise) but I think that this is a beautiful depiction of what could have been as I have always wondered what Kurt’s visual adaptions to his music would have been for many of the bands other songs. Extremely beautiful work and kudos to the creator. It captures Kurt’s abstract artistic style perfectly ❤

@@thebudanderson Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think that's true. Kurt was a very artistic person, he loved fleshing his ideas out musically and visually, which can be seen in his paintings. The music video for Heart Shaped Box came straight out of Kurt's mind, only a couple ideas were added by the director.
