If you mean the definition of the word nirvana, as in; 1 : nirvana, the final beatitude that transcends suffering, karma, and samsara and is sought especially in Buddhism through the extinction of desire and individual consciousness.

Then no.

Or; 2 nirvana a : a place or state of oblivion to care, pain, or external reality.

Again, no.

Or 3 nirvana BLISS, HEAVEN Or even 4 nirvana, a goal hoped for but apparently unattainable :

Then no... & no.

However, if you mean the band Nirvana...


then it's still no.

I think it definitely has grungey undertones. The vocal style is definitely not your usual BJ-fare.

it is just listen to it on headphones and youll see the comparisons maybe its just me but the guitar is almost identical to the nirvana style (the band nob head thats why i put kurt cobain)

plus the lyrics seem to be in the same territory

Ooooh, I love it when hard rock and alternative collide .... like Save A Prayer, sounds a bit like Soundgarden at times to me

I must get this song from somewhere

I really like the song and it sounds a bit like nirvana... The song is on the wonderful "this aint a love song" maxi CD and it contains 4 B-sides!! I mean its like an EP

The B-sides
