"Aneurysm" is a song by the American rock band Nirvana, written by vocalist and guitarist Kurt Cobain, bassist Krist Novoselic, and drummer Dave Grohl. It first appeared as a B-side on the band's breakthrough "Smells Like Teen Spirit" single in September 1991. A second studio version was released on the rarities compilation Incesticide in December 1992.

The song is believed to be about Cobain's relationship with Tobi Vail of the American punk rock band Bikini Kill. It is also one of the few Nirvana songs to directly reference drug use.

A live version, recorded on December 28, 1991, at Del Mar Fairgrounds in Del Mar, California, was released as the first promotional single from the live compilation From the Muddy Banks of the Wishkah in November 1996. It reached number 11 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart and number 13 on its Modern Rock Tracks chart. Its music video, featuring a medley of two other live versions from the 1994 home movie Live! Tonight! Sold Out!!, reached number one on the MuchMusic Countdown in Canada in November 1996.
