Nirvana's biggest song of all time is, of course, "Smells Like Teen Spirit" — there is no contesting that. Even though the late frontman, Kurt Cobain, had grown to loathe the song for its eventual mainstream popularity and mainstream exposure, the 1991 grunge anthem has remained not only their biggest, but the entire grunge genre's most celebrated track. It has gotten so big (even becoming Nirvana's signature hit) and is credited with bringing grunge into the mainstream consciousness. It is no secret that the song was intended to be the band's closest thing to a pop song, a fact that Cobain himself had publicly stated. But did you know that the song, considered the band's most successful, is actually a rip-off? Even Cobain himself admitted so.
