Considering they were a terrible band it's not really surprising that their only good song is their best song.

If it's the only one you know... then it probably is.

Aneurysm is my favourite.

Man Who Sold The World is Bowie... but their cover is a better version.

What makes them so bad?

Because they sound like they're playing instruments for the first time and Cobain sounds like he lost all control of his lower jaw.

I'm more of a "Territorial Pissings" kind of guy although I prefer the various live versions of it over the studio album version.

No, actually it is the worst. I don't doubt Cobain killed himself because their poorest song was the most popular.

It's their most generic song, it's their most hyped song, and it's up there with Freebird for most overplayed songs ever. I don't think so many people would hate them if radio stations actually played some of their songs other than SLTS.

Edit: But going back to your first point, I've heard enough of them to know they are a terrible band - of course that comes with a high desgree of subjectivity (but I'm sure you knew that).

Breed, Lithium, Territorial Pissings, and Serve The Servants are my personal favorites. Smells Like Teen Spirit is a good song, but it's overrated.

I'd have to say Lithium or Heart Shaped Box as their best, definitely not Smells Like Teen Spirit.

It's a good song, but it doesn't capture the TRUE nirvana experience. Kurt even started to hate that song because of it being so overplayed.

Personally, I think Lithium is a classic Nirvana song everyone should hear.
