I was basically trying to rip off the Pixies. I have to admit it. When I heard the Pixies for the first 5me, I connected with that band so heavily that I should have been in that band— or at least a Pixies cover band. We used their sense of dynamics, being soq and quiet and then loud and hard.” – Kurt Cobain. “Smell like teen Spirit” • Original • Nevermind • 1991 • Fa5, Sib5, • Lab5, Reb5 Smell like teen spirit Guitar Riff Smell like teen spirit “Smell like teen Spirit” • Our arrangement • 7/4 • Demo (Piano and Voice) Smell like teen spirit Nirvana Luis Regidor, José Carra Em A m7 G maj C maj Voice 4 ! 3 ! 4 ! 3 ! . 4 & 4 1 4 2 4 3 4 4 . 4 C maj D maj Em7 D 7/F# 4 ! ! ! ! & 4 5 6 7 8 G maj A m7 G maj/B C ! ! ! ! & 9 10 11 12 D 7 Em7 D 7/F# G maj ! ! ! ! & 13 14 15 16 A m7 G 7/B C D 7 ! ! ! ! . & 17 18 19 20 . © Black Hole Sun • Original Song composed by Soundgarden in 1994.
