  • Chaz from Trenton, Nj"Zero from Nowhere, Nj
    Does anyone know if Chad Channing played double bass on this album? I can hear it in this song as well as "School", "Negative Creep" and a few other songs."

    Yes.
  • Camdensucks from DillsburgI think scoff is about a bad father and son relationship and the son wants recognition from his father like the verses go to kurt's perspective to his dad's. (my eyes, your eyes."
  • Zero from Nowhere, NjDoes anyone know if Chad Channing played double bass on this album? I can hear it in this song as well as "School", "Negative Creep" and a few other songs.
  • Sheeberson from Wrightsville Beach, Nci would guess since this song's drum beat was inspired by "My Sharona"- The Knack. They sound EXACTLY the same
  • Echo from Normalville, Madrums=Chopped up rat beat
    drums=awesome
  • Sheen from Dallas, TxI think one day a long time ago when I was in school there was this retarded kid who took a book I was reading from me and I said to him "Gimme back my alcohol". Ah, I loved school.
    Fantastic song.
  • Spencer from Equinunk, PaI wouldn't say this is their best song, but one of the best on "Bleach".
  • Nick from Kingston, Australiableach is an under reated album
    but i guess if bleach was sucesful he would have killed him self sooner
  • Seph from Pittsburgh, PaThis is one of Nirvana's best songs. I think this song is about people judging kurt and telling him that he is never going to be anything.
  • Jordan from Victoria, CanadaThe drum beat is cool. I think Kurt wants his alcohol back.
