Nirvana is MY favourite band because they mean a lot to ME.
I can't claim that they are the best band in the world because that's only MY opinion. Some other guy might come along and say: "Dude my favourite band is Good Charlotte!" and it's totally okay.
You're all a bit dumb, sorry. :-( It's totally relative.
Wheter you like NIrvana or not.

In my eyes they're one of the best bands ever. A band that changed the late eighties and early ninethies. It's a shame that they had to become so mainstream, but that's what happened.
I love Kurt Cobains voice and his lyrics, eventhough he said that most of them didn't mean much to him.
Officially, bandleader Kurt Cobain commited suicide in 1994, but there are a lot of rumours around his death.
Some fans hate his wife Courtney Love, some like her, some just don't know what to think about her. (So do I)

Nirvana is NOT better then bla bla bla or bla bla bla.
They're NOT over- or underrated.
They're (they were) only Nirvana, a much appreciated rockband.

Bla...
I sound like some weird hippie. Well perhaps I AM a weird hippie.

Get the nirvana mug.
An overrated but good rock band from the early 90's. Kurt Cobain and Co. reached an extreame amount of fame in the early 90's with the release of their album "Nevermind." Largly considered the nail in the coffin for 80's glam rock, these guys brought an anguished sound to the world with a cool mix of punk and alternative (i.e. Grunge).

The band's fame was immortalized when frontman Kurt Cobain blew his head off with a shotgun.
"Yeah Nirvana was good.. but Guns N' Roses was better"

"Damn im tired of people saying Nirvana is the best band in the world cuz they really didn't have much talent. People only like em cuz Kurt killed himself."

"All Nirvana did was open the floodgates for crappy alternative music"

A good band from the early 90's. Basically Kurt Cobain. Probably the best grunge band ever. Although in my opinion Grunge isn't all that good anyway. But for the people who claim that Nirvana are the greatest rock band of all time; ever heard of Led Zeppelin, The Who, Pink Floyd, Guns N' Roses etc? and yeh, Guns N' Roses are better.
Nirvana are overrated. This is mostly by people who don't know shit about music/Nirvana. The fans that actually know a lot about Nirvana, other than just hearing smells like teen spirit, are ok, as its not them that make Nirvana overrated.

Total stage of peace and elightenment
Total stage of littered instruments.
