Listening to Nevermind, fip? Interesting choice, but you definitely chose the right Nirvana album. That album has some fantastic tracks on it.

I'm not a very big Nirvana fan, but I felt like listening to it somehow. Definitely not a bad album, but Nirvana aren't really my thing.

Here's what happens when you badly translate a moshkito post:
"Hi, I'm the worst to ask this ... but I would make sure that I would put one "musical element" down or two that will probably get a reaction ... 1. It's improvised, and he adjusts as he goes along. As such, a lot of what he does MIGHT never be based on music anything, anymore than he might think ... what happens if I add this effect on top of all this ... 2. The feeling ... he adjust the music for the feeling, and concentrating merely on the musical elements, in the end, means one thing ... you are not listening to the music, or let it flow through you and take you for a trip ... Those should be your 2 "last" concepts on your paper. Because otherwise, your idea is totally off key and is not what Robert does at all ... and a lot of it is incidental and accidental, and not musically defined. However, he is also a very knowledgeable person in music, and he might better be able to disguise it, but people like him spend more time "deconstructing" music and its precepts than he does worrying about "music"." ...20 translations later we get: "Hi, I am the worst ... would, however, to "musical elements" in the two possible reactions such as, or ... 1. Improvisation for the first time. That is why most of them do not imagine the music you are based ... What do I do if my destiny to do ... especially 2. This indicates a different meaning ... Music, emotion and focus on the elements of music and the result of something ... do not listen to music, or a power outage ... If the project of "end" of various nationalities. Otherwise they are very different ideas, but many things ... Robert is a necessary and accidental, but the team. But it is a good education, popular music, to hide more, but people wanted more time for the "old" music, and decided to play the music."
The man makes more sense after translation. Also, I had to translate the phrases separately to get the whole thing going.

I like Nirvana a lot, in particular the first half of that album is excellent, but they're definitely not my favorite grunge band. Alice in Chains and the Stone Temple Pilots are much, much better.
