I wouldn't really call Nevermind soft but I think it does sound a bit like power pop cleverly hidden under all of that distortion and angst.
And Tourette's is definitely not a bad song, Rape Me is probably my least favorite track on In Utero but that doesn't mean I don't like it.

The clever power pop hidden away in Nevermind was probably the key to its success. I know a lot of people that dislike heavy metal and hard rock in general, BUT love Nirvana and state them as one of their all-time favourite bands!!! if I put on Soundgarden, Alice in Chains or Stone Temple Pilots all huge grunge bands of the era they equally dislike these bands as well, accusing them of being noisy and heavy, its seems like Nirvana and especially Nevermind transcends all this, with its hidden pop melodies. Or maybe its just the myth of Cobain that has been entrenched into their minds.....
By the way, these same people love Pearl Jam, Bon Jovi, 80`s and 90`s Aerosmith.......
