I think there should be some mention of the song being recorded with Cobain laying on a couch in the control room of the recording studio. This was discussed in the VH1 Classic Albums special about Nevermind. - ZEROpumpkins 11:42, 21 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Article clean up

[edit]

Cites no sources and doesn't read like an enclyclopaedic entry. ScarianTalk 04:25, 13 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Consensus"

[edit]

Is there some reason not to have an article on this particular song? — CharlotteWebb 01:34, 11 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Members of Wikipedia:WikiProject Alternative music and its Nirvana taskforce decided to redircect song articles that did not fulfill notability guidelines to warrant separate articles. WesleyDodds (talk) 01:40, 11 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I would argue that appearing on the soundtrack of two major films, being released as a B-side of a Nirvana single, and being covered by seven other bands are by themselves sufficient assertions of the song's "notability". — CharlotteWebb 01:56, 11 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
No, not really. It was never released as a single (thus having no commercial impact), and commentary by critical sources is low. Your points basically just establish "it's been used places". There's nothing inherently notable about that. WesleyDodds (talk) 01:58, 11 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It was released as the B-side of About a Girl, not that it matters. An article about a song recorded by eight bands (what's that, about one every other year?) ought to be kept as a navigational route between the pages about said bands and their albums, even the article itself is a stub, which this obviously isn't. We may agree to disagree about how much is lost by redirecting it, but I shall maintain the belief that nothing is gained by doing so. — CharlotteWebb 02:25, 11 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Seriously 8 bands is a lot of covers.... keep it up, add it to it, but don't delete it! --Mrmoustache14 (talk) 17:51, 15 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Eight covers does not constitute notability. WesleyDodds (talk) 13:25, 23 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"Mark Lanegan" co-writer?

[edit]

There's not more evidence besides the recent biography that he co-wrote it, but we might not ever be able to confirm it. Should Lanegan stay in the "writers" section on the infobox? Crazyeditor23 (talk) 16:10, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I would say Lanegan should be removed from the info box because Oliveri is not necessarily reliable and could be biased. Why haven't we heard this information before ? QuintusPetillius (talk) 18:42, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No, Lanegan should not stay in the "writers" section on the infobox. Shouldn't the infobox only list the writers who were actually credited on the album as the songwriter? If you want to add a section in the article about who else should have been credited fine, but the infobox should contain who is actually credited.
