Talk:Pennyroyal Tea

Untitled

It would be good if we could get the planned release date for various territories by reference to contemporary sources. Internet contains conflicting stories about this. Back issues of Music Week might be a good place to look for the UK. Morwen - Talk 12:25, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

I was reading the Abortifacient article which mentions "pennyroyal tea" and typed this into the search box - ended up here. Perhaps the article should have a disambiguation link at the top to the Pennyroyal article. PeepP 20:21, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

Does this mean Kurt Cobain was pro-life? That's very hard to believe. Anyway, the abortifacient is just called "pennyroyal," or "pennyroyal oil." --Macarion 04:34, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

How is is hard to believe?Nimrod1234 13:02, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Because Cobain was opnely, and Strongly in support in Womans Rights. He believed himself to be a bit femminst. I find it impossible to believe he was pro-life.

Create an article for Jeffery Plansker

Please, would somebody create an article of Jeffery Plansker and link it here?. It was linked, but it has been erased, and I had to erase the link. Please make a good article, because the last one was erased. If you don't consider Jeffery Plansker important, don't make an article. I'm just asking you to erase links that lead to nowhere.

Leonard cohen afterworld...

probably refers to the album "The Future" by Leonard Cohen in which the track "The Future" is about a totalitarian type of post-apocalyptic afterworld. Cohen also writes in a similar style as Kurt Cobain. I don't know where to add this, feel free to if you wish. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nnnudibranch (talk • contribs) 05:31, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

I would agree that both Leonard Cohen and Kurt Cobain have kind of pessimistic, depressing themes in their music, yeah.--Smocksmeagel (talk) 22:56, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

Small edits

I made a couple of very small edits. The article was well-done, in my opinion, but I noticed some grammatical things, which I changed. For instance, I added an apostrophe to the word "song's" in the following sentence:

Playing off the song's title, the sleeve pictures a cup of tea on a table...

Also, in the "Music video" section, I added a pair of commas:

Jeffery Plansker then signed on as the new director. With Cobain's death, though, this was ultimately scrapped.

I don't edit Wikipedia pages very often -- I think I've done it twice in the last year -- so I don't have a registered name or anything like that. I hope I went about this the right way. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.73.113.128 (talk) 21:11, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

I hate myself

What version of "I hate myself and I want to die" was featured as the B-Side: The one from the pre-In Utero sessions (featured on "With the lights out") or the one from the In Utero sessons (featured on the Beavis and Butthead sampler)? --amano 85.127.54.35 (talk) 01:17, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

The one from the Beavis and Butthead compilation album. Its also the best version. mjgm84 (talk) 07:29, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

The one from "With the Lights Out" is far superior to the Bevis and Butthead version. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.82.168.151 (talk) 23:03, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

Track listings - 7 inch single

No official 7 inch Pennyroyal Tea single has ever been found to exist. The only ones found are fakes not official copies. A few 7 inch sleeves were made in the UK bu not the actual record. So while a 7 inch release was planned I don't think we should be including the track listing for a 7 inch that has never existed. From the Nirvana discography at www.sliver.it [1] which has been extensively researched:

• UK 7 inch test pressing - it's not known if test pressings have ever been made.
• UK retail 7 inch - unreleased "vinyl 7" were planned but probably never made. picture sleeves were printed, but only a few copies survived destruction".
• Germany test pressing - Unconfirmed Authenticy - its authenticity is not confirmed, the matrix doesn't follow the standard pattern used in german 7"s.

Single

Hmmm, why is this in the singles chronology? It says it was supposed to be released as a single, but was canceled due to Kurt's death. K0R0M0 (talk) 18:46, 16 January 2013 (UTC)

It was actually released, in some places, just in very small numbers as most copies were recalled by the record company - after it was released in a few European countries.

Cover art

Perhaps someone could find a better quality image of the cover art for this article now that the single has been re-released.QuintusPetillius (talk) 17:37, 19 April 2014 (UTC)

Charts

In guidelines at Wikipedia:Record charts/Billboard charts guide it states that: If a song has not charted on Billboard Hot 100 you may add Hot Singles Sales. Updated article accordingly. QuintusPetillius (talk) 13:15, 25 April 2014 (UTC)
