10 Perfect Anti Rock Star Songs

As soon as Nevermind hit it big, fame was always a bit of a mixed blessing for Kurt Cobain. While he loved the idea of writing songs that could speak to a lot of people, all of his problems were still intact when he made it to the top of the world, still feeling emotionally hollow after being from a divorced family and that pain only growing deeper. When we finally got the follow up to Nevermind, Kurt didn't even try to sugarcoat what he was feeling.

Opening with a barrage of noise from his guitar, Serve the Servants is one of the more pointed songs Kurt would ever write, saying that he feels like a shell of himself since the last record blew up. Starting with "teenage angst has paid off well, now I'm bored and old," this is clearly a man that has gone through his fair share of emotional turmoil in the wake of Teen Spirit being played into the ground.

While the chorus has the same kind of catchy melody that you'd find in most Nirvana classics, that line of serving the servants is a lot more sarcastic than most would have wanted to believe. Since Kurt was slowly losing touch with reality and giving in to his suicidal tendencies, this was no longer the voice of a generation that we wanted. In his eyes, all he was now was a dancing monkey entertaining the masses and looking to do anything to get back to his old life.
