Wake Up Song: Nirvana - Breed

Easily the second-most exciting song on Nevermind at first listen.

Wake Up Song: Nirvana - On a Plain

Cover Songs Worth Examining: Nirvana - Molly's Lips

Pay close atention to the chord progression of this song. That's right, there's just two of them, played over and over again. Proof that, in the right hands, the simplest works can be the most effective.

For comparison's sake, here's the original:

Nirvana - Jesus Don't want Me for a Sunbeam

The electric version of this blows away the acoustic one on the unplugged album. My favorite moment is when Dave Grohl plays so hard the cymbal stand collapses.
