    To Patience? I can think of several.

    Lithium, Something in the Way, In Bloom, Stay Away, Breed, Lounge Act.

    I mean, that's like half of Nevermind.

    If you're going to come with a GNR song, come with something better than Patience. Estranged is better than Patience. Don't Cry is better than Patience. Civil War is better than Patience.

    Damn near everything on Nevermind and In Utero is better than "Patience." And I like G'n'R..

    I love GNR. But Patience ain't it.

    Nirvana doing “Where did you sleep?” destroys patience.

    I didn't list that or Man Who Sold the World because those aren't Nirvana songs.

    fair point, but can you imagine GNR even trying to so an Appalachian folk song? Let alone make it sound that haunting?

    Kurt was so talented he wrote a hit album for his talentless wife's hack band.

    Patience is barely a top 10 G&R song, and Nirvana has at least 10 songs better than it.

    You're being kind. "Appetite For Destruction" has ten songs better than "Patience." I'm not sure it's top 20.

    Dude I know what I’m criticizing. I am a big Billy Joel fan and I know the background to all those songs. Just my opinion that he’s being maudlin with those pieces.
