Despite my general feelings about bleach, About a Girl is a marvelous little song and Wash has never been a favorite.

Fun fact, about a girl is the first song i learned to play on guitar.

Only on a Pearl Jam based board would a throwaway piece of junk like Wash actually compete with About A Girl.

Wash is fantastic. About a Girl is middling. Nirvana would do this idea much better in the future.

I was about to click About a Girl on instinct, but your post swayed me. Wash is a song I don't think about often, but it's very good.

I love Wash but About a Girl is iconic. Once again, my vote is for sale.

Maybe Eddie's best vocal performance?

Maybe. The atmosphere on that song plays so well alongside the voice. Everything about it actually feels like a barrage of water to me.

Yep. About a Girl is a nice little indie rock song that sticks out in Nirvana's largely abrasive catalog; but Wash is something very special...

This one is super close for me. I listened to both and I am leaning About a Girl.

Wash for me. Ten era PJ is seldom wrong.
