Plateau (song)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Plateau is a song written by alternative rock band the Meat Puppets, which first appeared on their 1983 album Meat Puppets II.
The song was popularized (or re-popularized) when brothers Curt and Cris Kirkwood (of the Meat Puppets) performed it with the grunge band Nirvana during their 1993 MTV Unplugged appearance. This version appears on Nirvana's 1994 album MTV Unplugged in New York.
Rapper Plan B named his debut album Who Needs Actions When You Got Words, taken from a lyric in this song, and sampled the Nirvana collaboration on his 2007 mixtape Paint it Blacker.
