Nirvana

noun: A Seattle-based band that came to the forefront of popular music with it's 1991 smash-hit Smells Like Teen Spirit. The song became so huge that Kurt Cobain himself began to hate the song and the fame it brought him. Throughout the band's lifespan, Cobain and bassist Krist Novoselic were the core members, going through a few drummers before joining up with Dave Grohl before recording Nevermind, and sticking with Grohl for the rest of the band's career. The group was disbanded in 1994 after Cobain's death, an apparent suicide, though to this day there are many people who believe Cobain was murdered.

verb: to smash something to the point where it is no longer completely functional (to Nirvana something)
noun: Nirvana remains today one of the most inspirational bands to many teenagers and young people.

verb: "Haha, we Nirvana'd Gavin's guitar other night, it was great."

NirvanaSpawn

A "self-taught" guitar "player" who only knows how to play the opening four chords to Smells Like Teen Spirit and will play them over and over again and refuse to learn anything else.

Rarely a Nirvanaspawn can have success, but only if they expand.

Nirvana

One of the best bands known to man. It was grunge back in the late 80's and early 90's. The lead singer was Kurt Cobain, and they were from Seattle, and most of everybody enjoyed their music. Their music was pretty pointless, and didn't make any sense in most songs. But it was very enjoyable. Still today people mourn over Kurt Cobain's suicide(April 5th, 1994)
Kurt Cobain is the shit, he rocks in the band Nirvana.


Man I love Nirvana.

Since all you retarted people out there who say I can't name names are so mentally retarted, I'll give you a REAL definition for once.OK, so there is a girl at my school named Nirvana Almon. She is the girl I mentioned in the 39th definition of "crush." As you can tell if you are not fucking disabled, I got a serious crush on this girl. But guess what? She doesn't know I'm THERE! And when she does she probably thinks I'm a stalker. This whole ordeal got me cutting.
