Nirvana - Imodium Lyrics

This is the smart studios session from 1989

This version is actually better than the album version I think... it’s more grittier and the drums are better

Raw version this is how never mind was meant to sound like

Bravo, félicitations pour ton frère!!!

This is heaven for old drug addicts.

what if he had a secret song called pepto bismol...lol

Maybe another secret song called Ipecac LOL

Stoned Canines and I call this gay song of Courtney’s rohypnol
Courtney: *THE FUCKTER*

For people wondering about the title, the song is about anal sex.

Doctor Feelfunny what really

Yes. The alternate title is "Breed" (as in "we don't have to").

It's named after a diarrhea medicine, he's clearly singing to a lover, but suggests planting his tree without breeding (he jumbles "tree" and "house", further suggesting a break from the "norm").

I'm not dismissing your "It's so not" counter-argument out of hand, but maybe you can flesh it out a little?

I like this version

so fucking raw. loperamide anyone?

Kurt, you could of took like 30-40 Imodium tablets and it would of helped your withdraws. You might still be here damn it.

people that mega dose lope have heart problems all the fucking time, doubt he would've made it much longer.

Fucking hate that shit, much rather use painkillers to get high.

Much rather use heroin. Actually just did a shot of it (well some bullshit fentanyl/heroin mix) 5 minutes ago.

Haven't done scag for a while, little short on money to systematically inject, pills are very cheap where I live, you can get fucked up on couple of coins.

Considering he was murdered, it wouldn't have made a difference.

The drums on this version are more powerful sounding. I like it.

Because it’s not Dave Grohl on drums

isnt this the released version but different pitch ?

isnt this the released version but different pitch ?

+Craig Campbell Nope, completely different studio session. You can find the session (with some unnecessary edits, sadly) on the Deluxe version of Nevermind (Disc 2). Also you can hear Kurt mess up some lines here "I don't even care, we could have a tree" "I don't mind, I don't care, I don't care"

The junkie's secret OTC Methadone/Suboxone.

over the counter?

Yep.. Imodium aka loperamide(the actual drug name). Its an opiate derivative, used primarily for diarrhea or IBS(irritable bowel syndrome), that can also be used to keep an opiate/opioid addict from going through withdrawls or being "dope sick", if they take enough of it...

@Da snOOk King I wonder how much you'd need to take. If you have a screaming habit, there's not enough Imodium in the world that's going to keep you well.

its usually about 90 mg or more of imodium if youre dopesick

I personally took the bupe route.. and it got me off opis.. but I know many people who have taken almost a full bottle of Imodium in one day, just to get "well".. until their next fix... I always felt good taking bupe though, but you cant do opis for a good 8-12 hrs after, and if your on opiates and take bupe too soon. precipitated withdrawls will fuck you up, but if you aren't planning on stopping opis like I did and relapsed over and over... and over until finally just sticking with it, Imodium will work. just in stupidly high doses only will it really keep wd's at bay.. 

wow. this is the first time i'm hearing this. i actually like this version better than the new version of Breed.

the lyrics are different. no need to be rude. kurt, krist and dave would be so disappointed to have you as a nirvana fan

oh wow youre on a first name basis with these guys? you must know everything about them. ....dumbass

Oh Marc.. You're just a shame of a fan..

+Marc Dogwood so.you'd rather have them called Mr Cobain Mr Novoselic and Mr Grohl like we're in the early 20th century? you're laughable

Marc Dogwood Calling someone a dumbass, which in reality, they’re the dumbass themselves.

like some of the early lyrics to this song apposed to the one released

Loperamide

Kurt was funny as Hell. Naming a song after a medication used to treat diarrhea. Hahaha.

and diarrhea is a side effect when getting sober/not having a fix for some time

It's because it's a song about bum-fucking.

It's actually because he was on tour with another band and the lead singer had the shits. Look it up

Pennyroyal Tea he was with TAD, it says in the description

@Pennyroyal Tea aight but he named it Imodium before he even toured with TAD

it sounds litle bit beter than Breed!

Why was the title changed to Breed?

Immodium is a trademarked product. Also, this song is about ass-fucking and that's less obvious when it's called "Breed"

Doctor Feelfunny ass-fucking lmao
