CLASSIC TRACK
NIRVANA LITHIUM
TG takes a look at Kurt Cobain’s powerchordfuelled anthem for the dispossessed in this month’s easy Classic Track
Seemingly written through the eyes of a character, Lithium is a song that evolved lyrically to reflect Cobain’s own dark feelings. It was “some of my personal experiences, like breaking up with girlfriends and having bad relationships, feeling that death void that the person in the song is feeling – very lonely, sick,” the frontman related to Musician magazine.
