That's the implied point of the thread you fucking idiot.
It's a pretty shit song so I'm not surprised he was young.
>Mike Oldfield wrote Tubular Bells when he was 17
>you're 24 and don't even play an instrument
>>28969232

>>28969205

>>28969205
It shows, anon. It shows.

He didn't just write it, he played every single instrument as well.

>idolizing musicians
Out of all the worthies, you choose musicians. Shows how normie you are.

It's not like it was a well written song or anything. I love Nirvana but their lyrical content was usually just grungy shit that sounded nice.

This. Also take into account he was doing what he enjoyed. Chances are if he had the same passion for music that you do then he wouldn't have written a damn thing.
>Goethe wrote Werther at 24.

>tfw I'm 20 years old and can only do simple chords
and I've been playing almost everyday since I was 16 with my cheapo acoustic that my parents bought me. I just learned the basics and just kept playing that and never progressed. I hunger to play but I guess not to learn more

>>28970814

Shit, he doesn't even say smells like teen spirit or anything close to it in the lyrics
