MUSIC AND MOVIES - DUMB

There are few individuals who are now a part of our subconscious or they symbolise genre fro us.
Lady Diana for beauty n Grace.
Che Guevara for rebellion & independence.
Gandhi for peace.
There are many....

& the Enigmatic Seattle genius KURT COBAIN for his destructive & crazy streaks.
Cobain has been remembered as one of the most iconic rock musicians in the history of alternative music. He was the lead singer and guitarist of the rock band Nirvana.

Cobain groundbreaking influence endures to this day. Out of the great hits of Nirvana I would like to talk about the song DUMB.

I'll let the lyrics talk.
======================
I'm not like them
But I can pretend
The sun is gone,
But I have a light
The day is done,
I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb
Or maybe just happy

Think I'm just happy (x3)
=======================
It tells the despair of an individual who's a misfit amidst the crowd & herd, but he starts to think he's Dumb trying to pretend .. But maybe tht's the way it should be so he is just confused & in a state of dilemma.
( Intoxicated Dilemma : PS - A homage to Cobain's heroine addiction ).
================
Why So Special ?
================
Nirvana was considered the "flagship band" of "Generation X", and Cobain, as its frontman, found himself anointed by the media as the generation's "spokesman". I think this song is one of the brilliant compostions of Cobain.

Whenever I hear the words "I am not like them , But I can pretend !! " .
=====================================================
I just smile :)
Maybe I am Happy or just another Dumb
But for sure I am not like them !!
=====================================================
Thanks Mr Cobain for the song & words.
