In 2014, I recorded my thoughts about Nirvana’s Nevermind, song by song, and put them on YouTube.  Now those musings are on the Music, Movies, and More podcast so feast your ears on my thoughts about “Polly”.


I analyze the music, describe my very first reaction hearing the song in 1991, the true story of “Polly”, and some “what if Nirvana” questions.


Show notes:


-What I thought the song was about before actually listening to it


-What the song is really about


-What makes this unique


-Polly’s parallel to Slayer’s Angel of Death


-What I thought the purpose of songs were


-What this song does


-The melody and harmonies


-When the listener pays attention


-The emotions experienced when listening


-The true story of “Polly”


-Back to the melody and musicianship


-The music versus the lyrics


-How would Polly be received if released in 2014?


-Would Kurt Cobain have a Twitter account?


-If Nevermind were released in 2014, would Nirvana be as big?
