I see lots of comments about how the lyrics are silly/simplistic, but it's actually quite impressive to create such an authentic voice/POV of a young child. Idk exactly why this song always hits me so hard...I guess it's because Kurt just actually transports me back to being a small child and the way it FELT. I always choke up and my eyes well with tears at the line "woke up in my mother's arms." Like I'm smiling, too. It's not sadness but just this huge rush of raw emotion.

Others may find the lyrics shallow and simply written, but I think it's clever. For me, this is a POV of a kid with nonexistent parents and was always left with someone else to take care of them (in this case, the grandma). In that sense, the words doesn't have to be too articulate. It's simple, realistic, and behind the happy tunes, lies the a sad truth that's happening to most kids. My interpretation only. I might be wrong, but this is how I see it.

Kurt actually fealt nervous by the release of, "about a girl" because it deviated more from his punk rock style. The reason he was experimenting with pop is because he knew that it drew in audiences. He never wanted the massive audience he ended up receiving, but wanted an audience nonetheless. The track was raw, not overly produced like sliver or the tracks on nevermind. The session to record all the songs on bleach took 30 hours in 2-3 takes. Sliver was the track that pivoted the band into the pop charts because of the amount of polishing and further emphasis on pop melodies and rifts. This was kurts baby to decide whether or not the band should go full pop. This is more clear when you realise tht sliver was released as a non-album single.

Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home! [Verse 4] Well, after dinner I had ice cream I fell asleep and watched TV I woke up in my mother's arms!

without even trying this song is so deep and relatable on so many levels, its really about the absolute chaos of being a child, wanting safety, and having no control at a young age over your life. a formerly sensitive child knows exactly the scenario he is describing in this song. its seemingly funny but so amazingly universal at the same time. we all just want safety and love!

Nirvana es una de las pocas bandas que no son sobrevaloradas. Casi todas tienen una o 2 canciones buenas y eso es todo, Nirvana tiene un muy buen repertorio

His eyes are beautiful. He was too good for this world. I remember my 1st nirvana concert i went with my friends and we sat front row! It was the best experience ive ever had.. i met him he gave me a hug and gave his autograph.. i remember just crying.. I have his autograph hanging on my wall... will never forget that day.... Bless you Kurt.. hope your having your well deserved rest up there xx

I’ve been a Nirvana fan since 1991 when I was 15 and absolutely love how raw and unpolished this video is. You can tell the band was having a good time doing it.

The style was definitely of the era. The other style was skate videos. I miss that era. It had a certain feel to it. Too old to fit in with hippies. Too young to fit in with technology. Lots of angst and lots of kids running around unmanaged by their parents. Kind of felt like we were all on our own.

That whole album was made secretly. They didn't do no press for it they just released it in 92. Kurt said he wanted the real fans to just discover it on their own. Even though it was an album full of B-sides, some even written back in the bleach days, Geffen records knew it would sell because nevermind had sold so many. And they were right Incesticide went gold with no advertising and only this one video.

This came out when I was 4 years old. All these years later, I listen to this song like it was written about me. I remember being small and waking up to my mom carrying me to the car from my grandmas house. I listen to this shit now and it makes me cry because my parents and grandparents are all gone, but it’s still one of my all time favorites. 🎶💔

This song gives me the crazy vibes (In a good way). It’s the beat of the song and the drums and the electric guitar. Love it!

I think this song has a meaning “Mom and dad went to a show, they dropped me off at grandpa joes”- Parents dripped Kurt off at his grandparents while they went off. Grandma take me home” he wants to go home to mom and dad. He then stays with his grandparents for a while. “I woke up in my mother’s arms” he was back with his parents and he is still saying “grandma take me home” he now considers his grandparents “home”

This is probably the most iconic song to ever exist. But who else thought the song was called Silver ? 😂

Never would have thought that Kurt had this filmed in his garage of his Seattle home. The song was dedicated to Danny Peter, the old drummer of Mud Honey. This was Kurt's way of saying thanks, man. With baby Frances dancing, it made it even better. Kurt had everything you see in this video in storage for 2 years, then he pulled it all out and set it up like his Olympia apartment and made the sliver video. Kurt's will never be forgotten. What a brilliant guy
