			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Nirvana albums include 3 studio, 3 live, and 3 compilation albums. This award winning American grunge rock band. Original members of the rock band included singer/guitarist Kurt Cobain and Krist Noveselic the bassist. The group ran through a good number of drummers. The drummer who lasted the longest was Dave Grohl who became a member of the band in 1990. Nirvana experienced unforeseen success and was constantly referred to as the flagship band of Generation X. The group disbanded after the death of Kurt Cobain in 1994.</p>
<p>The first of Nirvana Albums was Bleach, released in 1989 by independent record label Sub Pop. Following that was Nevermind, released by DGC Records. The lead single, &#8220;Smells Like Teen Spirit&#8221; from the album was a huge hit, plunging the group into mainstream. The third studio album, Utero, out in 1983, further established the group&#8217;s audience. Live albums include MTV Unplugged in New York (1994), From the Muddy Banks of the Wishkah (1996), and Live at Reading in 2009.</p>
<p>Nirvana received a total of five Grammy nominations before finally receiving an award for Best Alternative Music Performance award for MTV Unplugged in New York in 1996. Several albums were released after Cobain&#8217;s untimely death. The two surviving band members painstakingly sorted through Nirvana recordings to compile albums for release. Nirvana Albums that are compilations are Incesticide (1992), The Best Of Nirvana (2002), With the Lights Out Box Set (2004) and Silver: The Best of the Box released in 2005. With the lights out was a mixture of early Cobain demos, live tracks that were recorded throughout the band&#8217;s history and uncut rehearsal recordings. So far, Nirvana has sold more than fifty million albums worldwide.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the many favorite Weird Al Yankovic songs of all times is the Smells like Nirvana song which rips off the lyrics of the song from Nirvana, Smells like teen spirit.  This melody hit single was in the top of the charts for many months but the real song from the Nirvana boys was in the charts for several years.  With Weird Al you might say he has this mix of one hit wonders even though he has a few of them.  Weird AL Yankovic is a multi award winning singer and song writer who takes songs from other bands and turns their lyrics into a funny musical melody.  Some of the songs that hit the MTV generation where his version of Thriller, the Smells like teen spirit knock off, and Fat after Michael Jacksons Bad song.</p>
<p>Weird Al has the funny lyrics and the comical styling&#8217;s of somebody that can turn an everyday song into one that is funny for all levels of the family.  The costumes and expense that Weird Al goes to in order to replicate the songs like Smells like Nirvana is amazing which is why he has won so many different awards.  His versions of you can&#8217;t touch this called I can&#8217;t touch this is one of the most funny songs he has put to air.  The song lyrics take the fun out of the Nirvana song which is difficult to hear and the words sound like mumbling.  So Weird Al goes around saying that he does not know what the words are about or what the singer is talking about and generally making fun of everything in the film clip too.  His film clips are the master pieces of his work which is why you need to see them to really appreciate all of the lyrics as well as at least knowing what the other songs are about.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Nirvana was a great band back in the late 1990s when they first came out and all the band members still could not grow a beard.  Back in those days around 5 to 10 years ago now this group came smashing out of America from the city of Seattle where grunge rock was the main stream music for the next generation.  True to classic hard rock style these guys never lost a beat and where a huge success making one great album after another until they had endless songs that rose through the charts.  At just about every function you go to and all of the pubs, clubs and other establishments you will be bound to here a Nirvana song like smells like teen spirit or one of the many other hits by the end of the night.</p>
<p>Nirvana as a band have had to go through some major problems here and there when their lead singer got sick and the bands plane was in an accident.  Just like the good times you all go through our bad times which are a part of the rock industry as well as an unwritten law of the world.  Nirvana is still selling albums today which are amazing for such a young band even though their songs have made it to the number one spots in more countries around the world then mast bands ever will.  Weird Al Wank Yankovic is another song writer who makes parodies of the real bands and plays music which rips them off.  He has done several songs of Michael Jackson and the song Smells like Nirvana which is absolutely hilarious.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>“Smells Like Nirvana” is a song that was written and performed by Yankovic. The song was one of Yankovic’s best, having been nominated for a “Best Male Video” in the 1992 MTV Video Awards. It debuted at number 35 on Billboard’s top 100 as well as the Mainstream Rock Tracks. This song is a spoof of parody the song “Smells Like Teen Spirit” that was produced and sung by the band, Nirvana.</p>
<p>The music video for this song was shot by Jay Levey, who also happens to be Yankovic’s manager. The video portrays the artistes performing at a high school concert which turns to chaos. Yankovic appears on guitar as Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain while Krist Novoselic is represented by Steve jay on bass and Jon Schwartz is on the drums as Dave Grohl. In this video all the three Yankovic band members have dressed to look exactly like Nirvana in “Smells Like Teen Spirit”.</p>
<p>The parody was produced with Cobain’s blessings. He had, however hoped that the song would be about food, but it turned out not to be about food, it was just another usual song, the only difference here being that it was a parody.</p>
<p>Though a little controversial, Yankovic’s “Smells Like Nirvana” has apparently been very helpful to suicidal teenagers. There have been reports that some children who were suffering from depression and were contemplating suicide got a respite from listening to Yankovic music. The song has also catapulted Yankovic’s musical career. The group still performs the song, even after Cobain’s death. Yankovic’s Smells Like Nirvana has the same sets and extras as the song it spoofs, but it still is a great hit among fans of both Yankovic and Nirvana. The video itself was even nominated for an MTV Video award which it failed to capture.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For a while, frequently updated sites are many that you can search and find just what you were looking for. Most probably, nirvana might be the word you want to know the meaning of. </p>
<p>But if you mention nirvana, you’d realize that it’s so much fraught with fun. The song “smells like Nirvana” forms an unrivaled humor centre. The song was drilled from “smells like teen Spirit” and its performance by Weird Al Yankovic was all of parody. But with all weirdo’s, Alfred, AKA Al, is already top. </p>
<p><a href="http://www.smellslikenirvana.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/smells_like_nirvana-001.jpg"><img src="http://www.smellslikenirvana.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/smells_like_nirvana-001.jpg" alt="" title="smells like nirvana" width="450" height="448" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-13" /></a></p>
<p>Such funny corrupted versions connect the singer with his fans. At least the songs help fans to run away from seriousness of life. These songs are released on his site at no cost and the pop expert is enjoying his career of many years.  However, Al has to seek consent from the artists he would love to parody in his songs. Sometimes Al fails with the plans especially if original singers feel that he is using corrupted versions to fight them.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.smellslikenirvana.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/smells_like_nirvana-002.jpg"><img src="http://www.smellslikenirvana.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/smells_like_nirvana-002.jpg" alt="" title="smells like nirvana" width="450" height="593" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-14" /></a></p>
<p>Well, Al’s is a group known for punk and Indie rock. Stories of Al and his parody songs are many that you can gather them at whatever place you visit, including the internet. </p>
<p>But still as it is in the entertainment scene, video clips of smells like Nirvana might not disappear anytime soon. When Yankovic wrote the lyrics and sang the Nirvana song, it unveiled capital talk of sorts across the digital world. You’ve probably seen these lyrics and even sang along them. But which words really touched your nerves? And what made the nirvana lyrics different from the rest? Nirvana thrived at a time when entertainment was all it was. Entertainment, particularly, Yankovic’s smells like nirvana is the bomb. Parody is perfect hit especially if it fulfills enthusiasm of every targeted fan.</p>
