Same thing happened when Stadium Arcadium came out. It was immediately obvious to me when that album came out that the intro to Wet Sand was influenced by Over the Hills and Far Away by Led Zeppelin. I remember a couple of my friends not hearing the similarities and thinking I was crazy at the time. Fast forward a year or two later and Frusciante did an intro medley of Over the Hills and Far Away before Wet Sand at one of their Japan shows.

kurt talked about it being adapted from more than a feeling’s chord progression - he sped it up and changed the order of 2 of the chords. it is documented in the book “heavier than heaven” if i remember correctly. the title is from a brand of girl’s deodorant called “teen spirit”. someone said, “kurt smells like teen spirit”. inspiration can come from anywhere if you don’t blind yourself to it. also, when geffen was bitching about there “not being another teen spirit” (a hit, in other words) on in utero he wrote “rape me” using a further altered version of the same chord pattern.
