Nirvana: Blew Meaning
Blew Lyrics
Blew
If you wouldn't mind I would like to blew
If you wouldn't care I would like to lose
If you wouldn't mind I would like to leave
If you wouldn't care I would like to breathe
Is there another reason for your stay
Could you...

#1 top rated interpretation:I felt really proud when I noticed this a few months ago.
here is another word that rhymes with shame:
COCAINE.
blew = cocaine.
ok, Nirvana is a grunge band. grunge often will half ass shit. there might not be any serious metaphorical meaning to each line in this song, but lets break it down as if there is anyways.
This song could definitely be about addiction and the guilt that comes with it. I'm not really sure what point of view, either the person with the addiction or a person helping an addict.
So if you insist on each line meaning something lets try this:
"I would like it loose"
deviated septum. if you're not sure what that is, go look it up. your nose can get pretty damn loose after a lot of coke.
"I would like to bleed"
people can get some gnarly nose bleeds after long term coke use.
"I would like to breathe"
maybe he's saying its a good alternative to smoking.
I'm having quite a bit of trouble with the rest of the song, but I'm tired, and I want to go to bed. so there's my take at it. Please add to it. -
I think this song is about hooking up
"I would like it blew" - he wants a blow job
"I would like it loose" - Loose pussy please
"If you wouldn't mind I would like to leave" - Since they're done he wants to leave
"If you wouldn't care I would like to breathe" - He's probably tired after oral
"Is there another reason for your stay" - Do they have anything in common, can she leave now? Is there actually a purpose to her stay? This also goes with him wanting to leave, the rest is pretty random. Again, it seems like he doesn't have much in common with this person so he's being sort of indirect, " if you wouldn't care" "If you wouldn't mind" He's definitely respecting her but at the end of the day doesn't see much reason for their hangout besides sex. -
I always thought "here is another word that rhymes with shame" had something to do with him. (Cobain) (Shame)
Because as a teenager I'd be jamming out to this song in the shower, and always Invision his last name rhymed with Shame, but then I'd replace his name with mine. (Chastain) idk.. lol what the fuck y'all looking at? -
It is probably about a blow-job, but not that he had one at the time..

This song is about Kurt's first experience with fame: on the road, looking for labels..."Here is another word that rhymes with shame"= fame.
Blew= past tense for blow= blow in Old High German= bluoen= to bloom.
Wishkah Lyrics
"If you wouldn't mind I would like to blew
If you wouldn't care I would like to lose
If you wouldn't mind I would like to leave
If you wouldn't mind I would like to breathe"= social awkwardness at a party
"Is there another reason for your staying?
Could you believe who we knew was such a stain?"= What Kurt thinks people think of him
"Here is another word that rhymes with shame..."= FAME
"You could do anything"= Kurt wanted to be a rockstar, but after he got a taste of what being a rockstar entailed, he thought to himself: You could do anything (except be a rockstar) -
A blow job? I went to nirvanalyrics.net, which interpreted it as themes of constriction and entrapment. What Wikipedia said was pretty similar, as well. And if you think aboot it,
"If you wouldn't care I would like to leave/
If you wouldn't mind I would like to breathe/
Is there another reason for your stain...
Here is another word that rhymes with shame....."
I would like to breath, sounds like he felt constricted, and couldn't metaphorically breathe. And stain, word that rhymes with shame, sounds like he's talking aboot how that person/those people were holding him back and shamed him. Besides, Kurt Cobain felt pretty held back in his life. The ex he wrote aboot in "About A Girl", the people who didn't believe in him in "Scoff", being under a bridge in a muddy swamp-like area in "Something in the Way", it's aboot entrapment, not blow jobs.... -
I've read from www.nirvanaclub.com that this is a song about a blow job. Kurt used "Blew" instead of "blow" or "blown" because it rhymes much easier.
The story goes: Kurt's girlfriend is on her rag, and kurt just wants some head.
