For those who don't know, this is about a girl named Polly. She was kidnapped, starved and tortured with a blowtorch. I'm South African and possibly younger than the rest of you and I know that...yeah, times are changing...
Even tho I still love the original version of Polly, but this New Wave version is AWESOME!!!! I've played this song back over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over.... @__@
@misanthropicagenda1 how the hell would you know. your sentence wasnt even correct. nothing is real dumb. youre not a real dumbass, youre a very stupid dumbass.dumbass
FAGGGGG,,,,,you dont know good music...if i knew who you were id kick your fucking ass as im sure 1000s of others would...if you dont like it dont listen to it...go bleed emo
ps @TheAneurysm14 i fucked up wrong person lol sorry dude
FAGGGGG,,,,,you dont know good music...if i knew who you were id kick your fucking ass as im sure 1000s of others would...if you dont like it dont listen to it...go bleed emo
@jack00008 You know what? I have no idea why the hell it's called (New Wave) Polly; it just is. Yes, it's not New Wave; did you really expect Nirvana to write New Wave music? Also, don't be condescending to other people on Youtube just because you feel like trolling. I won't take this any further; say what you want, but from now on, I won't respond.
this is like the original soulless remix... way to ruin a deep, meaningful song. i like nirvanas heavier, sloppier side, but it should never have mixed with their meaningful side.
no its not there are 2 versions this is the one with Dave Grohl the one on polly was recorded with their old drummer then they made another one thats faster tempo witch is this one
yeah dude they wrote this song when they made bleach but they didn't put it on the album, and back then when they did about a girl live it was faster and heavier too.
hmm.. sorry... i was just going off a show they did in... 1988 i think it was.. its on youtube but they played about a girl pretty fast with distort on all through the song, instead of just after the solo.
if you hear the unplugged version first this one just sounds dirtier and in fast forward! i like unplugged, but i can see how that could work the other way.
You are fucking stupid. Just because someone prefers an acoustic version doesn't make them a poser. You, in fact are the poser for actually thinking your opinion means shit.
Almostguy, you're such an idiot. You really don't know much about Nirvana, right?
This song is about a rape victim, a girl abducted after a punkrock concert. She was tortured with a blowtorch ( thus the lyrics 'Maybe she'd like some water to put out the blow torch. ) and razor blades. She escaped by flirting with her abductor, and while he was tanking gas she escaped.
Nevermind collected dust on the shelf, incesticide rarely left the tape player...gosh, I bet it's sitting in a box somewhere in the garage. How time flies...
You were right, I never new about Incecticide. Its with the lights out that I thought was from 2000 or something. but In Utero was the third studio album, with all new songs and stuff, I never count complitation albums
1:32 scared the shit out of me. I thought it was a picture at first
