IKR! It's like I've said most of the things he did... I think that's why so many people idolize him, because people are not so different from each other but they are not being genuine enough but Kurt is. He is honest and genuine and he makes you feel like you are not the only one suffering and not knowing how to deal with some problems
I started fucking crying when he was talking about Frances growing up and his future. You know he thought about that shit all the time, growing up with her, having her in his life. So sad that she didn't have him as a father figure growing up.
Such an intelligent person underneath his dark side, he needed to let that beautiful part of him shine instead of letting that dark part of him blanket over him and suffer to the nth degree because of it. In his defense fame will either make you or break you and so very very tragically it broke him. He will always be missed. RIP Kurt Cobain thanks for all your music and inspiration.
As a youtube member mentioned below, I do think Kurt Cobain displays aspie traits with a little bi-polar. I should know because I have AS and can relate to every word Kurt says, especially, "I find myself falling asleep at times when I'm fed up with people or bored. If I don't want to socialize and I am stuck in a social situation, like back stage or being on tour in general, I just sleep all day. I would prefer being in a coma and just be woken up, then be wheeled out onto the stage and play and then go back into my own little world."
I'm AS, they can have pure chaotic energy or just choose to fall asleep when they feel tired of acting & following social norms, the times I have most fun is when I am breaking rules because hey how many corrupt rich politicians & bank execs follow laws, none! Laws only apply to poor people who can't afford fines
wow, I never heard this before, shows a whole different side of Kurt Cobain, everyone sees him as the media represents him, but they just don't know him.
you can tell so obvious he was severely depressed. i know bc ive been there. even his voice u can sense it and it comes out in his music. its too bad he didnt seek medical help. i still love their songs!
Hes the dude you never met but is so relatable you listen to him talk like..... Just one of the guys in the group. Insightful, thoughtful and chill. Thank you Kurt for the words of wisdom and great interviewers who did such wonderful interviews. Perfect
Kurt had a painful stomach condition related to a pinched nerve from scoliosis. He was prescribed medication in '93 and finally found relief from it. His mental attitude also improved after the birth of his daughter. He was a "changed man."
Kurt was a good guy. highly intelligent and sensitive. he didn't have the ability to recognize that he needed help though, which is common with people who have any type of addiction or mental health problem. the pressure of fame made him worse. he didn't know how to cope with it. I think he felt so alone and misunderstood. fame didn't really make him happy and having a family obviously didn't make him feel any better. I know a lot of people say he should have stuck around for his daughter, he should have tried to work things out with his wife or he should have tried to get help, but when you are in a dark place mentally and emotionally, its hard to see the upside to anything. and when people are suffering, they just want the pain to stop. given all the problems he had in his life, it's not a surprise really that his life ended the way it did
It was Michael Azerrad, who interviewed Kurt (and the rest of the band) for the definitive NIrvana biography "Come As You Are". They made a movie using tapes of the interviews he conducted with Kurt called "About A Son", which is where this audio came from.
"I just KNEW that I would eventually stop doing them and being married and having a baby is a really good incentive...and also Im a rich millionaire rock star..I have a lot of reasons to not do drugs...that's why I have to keep going." Sad.
Listening to this makes me sad,just to know that he's gone...every time I hear his voice in an interview or see a video of him it just makes me feel like he's still alive..then again,he still is alive,in my mind and heart..love you Kurt,R.I.P
He was used to promote depression in the 90s. Thats one of the reasons there are so many cases of ADHD now. And so many kids taking prescription drugs now. In the 90s we never even heard of such things. If you were hyper active, you'd get smacked and thrown into a corner. Now it's "take 2 of these and call me in the morning." He knew he was being used. Same with most 90s artists. That's why they're all dead. Think about it. Who out of the 90s that was MAJOR is still alive? Kurt, 2pac, Biggie, Lane Staley, etc. the list goes on and on. Because once they wake up from their youth, they're no good to major corporations anymore that need to sell you drugs. It sounds crazy, but check out prescription drug sales from then till now and tell me you don't see the difference.
"Promote depression." Some of these comments crack me up, honestly. But I'll reserve my harsher judgment. Most people with a mental illness would give anything to be in your shoes.
Only if he were still around.... I think if all of the music legends who died too young were still around, not just music, but the world would be a different place. Lennon, Hendrix, Cobain, Marley, I can't even list them all.
To me, this interview seemed to me much of what was in his suicide note. And it made me sad. It's very chilling to hear him talk. Great guy, he means so much to me. RIP Kurt, I can't wait to meet you.
I honestly DO NOT believe that he killed himself....not only here but also in Rolling Stone in 1994 (the year he dies) He talks about raising his daughter better than he was raised and the way in which he discusses it makes me feel that he never wanted to die, that and Part 1 of this video also...him saying that he IS a HAPPY person and that people misjudge him all the time.
And people around him truly did say he was leaving courtney, but then again did he think that was enough to be done, if his plan of raising his kid w his family is gone now... but there is so fuckin much strange shit w the case and it just pisses me off the PD up there didnt do shit AT ALL, fir them to say they dont investigate suicides is a joke, so every single "suicide" shouldnt be investigated as a homicide... so any serial murderer just has to set the gat in ther bodys hand, and they wo t investigate the trejectory of the bullet, little lone if its a FUCKIN ROCKSTAR! Courtneys a gold diggin bitch that wanted his shit so bad she caused termoil w the band by influencing kurt to take an even bigger piece, like 75% i wanna say r sum shit.... FUCK U COURTNEY
Actually if you listen carefully he is stating his case for suicide, he was in denial of his drug use, depression, he became disillusioned with his success and fame.
nearly all suicides are decided about an hour before it happens. God you're stupid. 99% of ppl don't think about it even days before, never mind weeks and months. also what do you expect him to say in a nationally public my interview "yeah I'm really depressed and thinking of blowing my skull off" what about France's? "yeah well whatever, I just want to die by shotgun"... "are we done"
I believe that my friends decision to kill herself was a sudden thing. Her husband found milk,,banana's and eggs laid out on the counter when he walked in the kitchen that evening. Like she was planning to bake something but changed her mind. We were next door neighbors and I spoke to her the day before she died and she was excited about going to Texas for the holidays to visit with her kids and grandkids. There was nothing in her demeanor that even suggested that she was depressed at all or at the end of her rope. The next day her husband came home from work and found her dead from a massive overdose. She gathered up every medication in the house and took it all. She put all the empty pill bottles in a small trashcan in their bedroom. I found out later on that she did have issues with depression off and on but the family never saw this coming. This happened in early Dec of 2002.
these are my favourite pieces so far that i've found on youtube about kurt......... and he just has so much to say that can't be explained; his words are the ones i've been trying to figure out how to say for years
I feel like Kurt had Asperger's or another autism spectrum disorder along with depression/bipolar. He often seemed nervous or uncomfortable in interviews despite being loaded on heroin (which is the most zen-like drug on earth lol). He was so sensitive it's like he was feeling everyone else's emotions, which autistic people experience sometimes. Myself included. I was 10 when he died but the death hit me hard. R.I.P. Kurt.
Brilliant...excellent photographs,thank you.. I loved listening to his voice+what he has to say,the pictures just make it so much better,as I've watched other clips/parts of interviews with whoever+Kurt+Im sitting watching,waiting for the photos,to find there's none.. Not that those clips of interviews aren't good,but with the photos it's a better experience!!
this interview is so mellowed and strange... "No matter... how clean we live our lives we won't survive this, because there are too many fucking enemies." this guy was so introspective, the stuff that must have gone through his mind.... RIP KURT COBAIN
These videos are so amazing, thanks for uploading. About his death i think the reason was obvious. Kurt always talked about people over-analysing his lyrics and i think its the same with his death, people are over analysing it when the answer is right there, i think he did commit suicide and he done it to escape which is why most people commit suicide. I think in the end it was too much pressure and he thought that was the only way - but who knows i guess.
I've thought the same before. But with the fiery approach he had in spreading good energy, anti- rape, anti evil basically, you really think he would just give up ? I don't. He was extremely smart, had already considered suicide because of his stomach problem and probably thought extensively about what it would be like if he did kill himself. I believe he understood how selfish it is to do so, and stuck it out through the pain because of what he believed in. Over time that got hard because of his shitty influences in life- Courtney- heroin use. But I still don't believe he would fully give up on what's important.
@@pervysage4531 a lot of smart people commit suicide. when your depression and addiction and everything else you're battling gets too strong, it's easy to break. i think all this speculation about whether he committed suicide or was murdered is bullshit; kurt was, sadly, not doing well at all. he lost control over his drug abuse, which made his mental health even worse, then felt cornered and helpless faced with all of the pressure put on him by his family, friends, the band, and fame, and in the end, he didn't see a way out that wasn't suicide.
For the people that are claiming that he didn't kill himself. Look at how he viewed himself. He deluded himself to escape reality. He had no sense of self-awareness. People don't ask you everyday "why are you so depressed", if you are happy.
I get asked all the time if I'm ok, am I mad, wtf do I have to be happy about, I feel his words, I can't tap out yet, he didn't tap out either, his own damn manager killed him!
Chris W don't mean shit! There is absolutely no FUCKING FUCKIMG FUCKING WAY, he could even speak let alone than put a shot gun in his mouth , you obs have fucking clue about IV OPIATES. the amount of heroin mixed with other chemicals. NO CHANCE IN HEEL
Actually Kurt was in pretty good shape in '94. He had found a perscription for his stomach problem and cut back on drug use. He adored his daughter and looked forward to raising her. It is a myth that he was suicidal.
Exactly its the worst most indescribable pain...physically you feel like ur skin is on fire and ice at the same time. Everything hurts that touches you. You cant lie in bed for more than 4 seconds without jolting and moving because ur so uncomfortable. And no sleep for 3/4 days. Your skin feels like it wants to crawl off you. Then after that you get the depression which lasts a lot longer. nothing in life seems worth doing, all the magic that was once in the world has gone. You feel soulless
Many of the people closest to Kurt have said that he seemed to be the happiest of his life in the months leading to his death. And many have said he wasn't suicidal at all. Courtney Love is the main one pushing all of the suicidal bullshit, but she obviously has an agenda for saying shit like that.
I watched "About a Son" the other day. If you listen to Kurt's voice you can tell he was not an overly emotional person. Really, rather down to earth and level-headed. Reasonable. If you listen to Courtney Love interviewed you can hear the intense mood swings in her voice. Kurt was not drowning in self-hate. That is a myth Courtney has been putting in the media for 15 years. In '94 Kurt was happier than he had ever been. And there is plenty of evidence Kurt had cut back on drug use in '94.
He was normal ,simple human being who just cope with stres the best he can. I dont know why here in comments people freaks out about drugs and depression...you people didnt had such problems? So you live in paradise maybe? And in this interview you can notice that he had spoke on looking for other way to express himself than in nirvana.Not everybody from his management could accept that... Maybe thats why they killed him?
Dude the end where he says he just wants to be asleep or in a coma then go play shows then go back is eerie considering his decent into the “big sleep”
Because he didn't. There's alot of proof that Kurt killed himself on UA-cam but people choose to ignore because he was depressed amd suicidal. Type in 'Kurt Cobain murdered.' 'Justice for Kurt.' 'Courtney killed Kurt.' Courtney had a practice sheet to copy Kurt's handwriting her ex-lawyer found it in her backpack that she forgot at her place. Courtney wrote the last four lines of the"suicide note."
doesn't sound suicidal at all, he sounds more optimistic than any other point at his life... he even talks around 2:34 about wanting to still be putting out records and living with his family in 10 years
tdogg65 peace fighter He says he finds himself falling asleep when talking to people because they just bore him so much or he just doesn't feel like socializing. He says he would prefer to sleep all day and stay in a coma. That is not a healthy state to be in. He seems to feel really alone and at the same time that he his pressured by everyone. Most of the time he doesn't want to deal with life, basically. Can't blame him.
Suicide isn't always something premeditated. As someone who has experienced depression firsthand for a long time, suicide attempts are often an impulsive thing.
I feel like I'm the only one who knows Nirvana and Kurt Cobain in today's generation and I'm 14. It's a tragedy that music is mostly about Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber, Kanye West, etc that no one even hears music from a legend like Kurt. I honestly think Kurt wasn't planning to commit suicide and was beginning to make changes in his life. He loved being a father and had plans to make music apart from Nirvana. I don't know if he was murdered or committed suicide, but that doesn't stop me from idolizing him. Next year, it's about to be 20 years since the world lost Kurt. Kurt, you'll always be the best fucking legend in my opinion. I miss you but we'll never forget you. +
he said about 99% of them stating there are a few exceptions. he also said its ok if they do other things and Henry Rollins is also an actor and musician. he doesn't ruin peoples lives like most journalists that only care about the story not the people.
2.) After El Duce slipped up and name dropped "Allen" in that "Kurt and Courtney" documentary, El Duce was killed days later, he was hit by a train. I came across an old article where it shows Allen Wrench at the train tracks and it says he was the last person to see his friend Eldon Hoke aka "El Duce" alive.
same. i personally believe that his 'suicide note' was actually a goodbye note to nirvana cuz he wanted to make records on his own (edit: or he wanted to quit music altogether)
@@hoi7183 that or he was quitting the music scene all together, I know he said here he would put records out himself but I think by the time he was killed he was thinking of mostly quitting.
Thank You, Kurt. Thank You for everything. You have changed me... changed me in a good way. I have learned from You that it's easy to be honest. It's easy to be myself. Thanks for that. You've made me happy.
@ChadRB88: Kurt was about to divorce Courtney for adultery. She had signed a prenup and would have gotten little from a divorce. "Live through This" was about to come out and many feel the songs were actually written by Kurt though she likes to take full credit. She was jealous of his talent. A lot of motive there.
That last part shook me because I sleep to avoid the pain too.... I think sleep is my drug of choice because I feel the best when I'm don't have to deal with anyone or anything.... better then any drug our there but just like any drug it's only a temporary high😒
Most people (aside from Courtney Love) don't believe the Rome OD was a suicide attempt. Courtney just started calling it that after his death, its part of the myth she created. Even the doctor who tended to Kurt after the OD has said it wasn't a suicide attempt.
That just shows how fed up he was with the media he went from being “woke feminist” to wanting to beat the shit out of a female reporter for talking about his wife and trying to get his kid taken away
I don't get it when people say shit like that. *If* he was murdered, the people responsible need to be brought to justice. Its not just a matter of "letting it be".
He's right about rugs, I've had problems with them. They're not 100% bad, they can help you open up to people, but if you get strung out on them they wil FUCK you up. And I feel him on the moodiness thing, I hate when people think you're depressed just cuz you're not smiling all the time.
Vanity Fair magazine did an article implying that Courtney was doing heroin while pregnant with Frances Bean. It almost caused them to lose custody of her.
I find it somewhat scary how much i can relate to him
Yeh the press are always bugging my family too :/
IKR! It's like I've said most of the things he did... I think that's why so many people idolize him, because people are not so different from each other but they are not being genuine enough but Kurt is. He is honest and genuine and he makes you feel like you are not the only one suffering and not knowing how to deal with some problems
AlternativeGamer99 And that's exactly what he wanted.
lol
AlternativeGamer99 *_CANNED BREAD!_*
Kurt was right about journalists, most of them are failed artists and take out their frustrations on people who have actually succeeded.
@@BlacklightSummerOfficial its actually pretty true...
What a sensitive, introspective, amazing human being he was...rest in peace Kurt
His voice was so soothing.
I started fucking crying when he was talking about Frances growing up and his future. You know he thought about that shit all the time, growing up with her, having her in his life. So sad that she didn't have him as a father figure growing up.
Is it odd that the sound of his voice calms me and could make me go to sleep? lol
fuck no man. To me Kurt is beautiful in every single way shape and form... oh course he wouldn't want us to think that haha
Bre his voice calms me down to I love hearing him talk I like his state of mind
i always watch interviews bc his voice relaxes me sm and makes me feel safe idk why
It's the old souls who are the most tortured.
I read the comments and I think Kurt would be happy of all his fans.
Such an intelligent person underneath his dark side, he needed to let that beautiful part of him shine instead of letting that dark part of him blanket over him and suffer to the nth degree because of it. In his defense fame will either make you or break you and so very very tragically it broke him. He will always be missed. RIP Kurt Cobain thanks for all your music and inspiration.
We love you kurt.
I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder 13 years ago and I recognize a lot of myself when I listen to Kurt.
he was such a good person. i admire him from the bottom of my heart and i wish all people would be like him.

Very kind, humble and amazing. The world will not be the same without you. I am 54, 22 when you started.
so sincere, he was most deff misunderstood!
He was a beautiful person inside and out. R. I. P Kurt

Now that I've become obsessed with Kurt Cobain, I don't see my life ever being fulfilled since I'll never be able to meet him or see him live.

that's so strange!plus we both love kurt :)

Chris W don't mean shit! There is absolutely no FUCKING FUCKIMG FUCKING WAY, he could even speak let alone than put a shot gun in his mouth , you obs have fucking clue about IV OPIATES. the amount of heroin mixed with other chemicals. NO CHANCE IN HEEL
This documentary never gets old. It's one of the greatest films I've seen.
And you never see Kurt or hear his music.
Masterpiece.
How can you not love this guy???
Actually Kurt was in pretty good shape in '94. He had found a perscription for his stomach problem and cut back on drug use. He adored his daughter and looked forward to raising her. It is a myth that he was suicidal.
I wish Kurt was still around 😭
Exactly its the worst most indescribable pain...physically you feel like ur skin is on fire and ice at the same time. Everything hurts that touches you. You cant lie in bed for more than 4 seconds without jolting and moving because ur so uncomfortable. And no sleep for 3/4 days. Your skin feels like it wants to crawl off you. Then after that you get the depression which lasts a lot longer. nothing in life seems worth doing, all the magic that was once in the world has gone. You feel soulless
Mark Byam yes
Best Interview ever !!!
Kurt himself admitted being a nihilistic jerk, and then the next moment being kind and sensitive. He even admitted to being a moody person.
Very good interview!
Many of the people closest to Kurt have said that he seemed to be the happiest of his life in the months leading to his death. And many have said he wasn't suicidal at all.
Courtney Love is the main one pushing all of the suicidal bullshit, but she obviously has an agenda for saying shit like that.
Clearly, very few people in this comments section understand that or refuse to accept it. So much confirmation bias. Sad really.
KICKING IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FUCKING HARD. DOPESICKNESS TRUELY IS HELL, AND THERE IS NO WAY OUT BUT THROUGH. THAT AND DEATH. YEAH, ITS A REAL DRAG.
johnnyarsonctXhc amen
You actually start to not care if you die
I watched "About a Son" the other day. If you listen to Kurt's voice you can tell he was not an overly emotional person. Really, rather down to earth and level-headed. Reasonable. If you listen to Courtney Love interviewed you can hear the intense mood swings in her voice.
Kurt was not drowning in self-hate. That is a myth Courtney has been putting in the media for 15 years. In '94 Kurt was happier than he had ever been. And there is plenty of evidence Kurt had cut back on drug use in '94.
These interviews were done with M. Azerrad in february and march 1993 at Lakeside Avenue, North-East 11301, Sand Point, Seattle, WA.
I totally feel for him when he talks about isolating himself
He was normal ,simple human being who just cope with stres the best he can.
I dont know why here in comments people freaks out about drugs and depression...you people didnt had such problems? So you live in paradise maybe?
And in this interview you can notice that he had spoke on looking for other way to express himself than in nirvana.Not everybody from his management could accept that...
Maybe thats why they killed him?
Dude the end where he says he just wants to be asleep or in a coma then go play shows then go back is eerie considering his decent into the “big sleep”
Its scary how much kurt is like me in many ways kurt was a sensitive humble beautiful man both on The outside and on The inside 🧍♂️🎸💋💋💋💋❤️❤️❤️❤️🌻🌸🍓💋💯
This doesn't sound like some one who will kill himself months later...
Because he didn't. There's alot of proof that Kurt killed himself on UA-cam but people choose to ignore because he was depressed amd suicidal. Type in 'Kurt Cobain murdered.' 'Justice for Kurt.' 'Courtney killed Kurt.' Courtney had a practice sheet to copy Kurt's handwriting her ex-lawyer found it in her backpack that she forgot at her place. Courtney wrote the last four lines of the"suicide note."
***** RIP ? lol
doesn't sound suicidal at all, he sounds more optimistic than any other point at his life... he even talks around 2:34 about wanting to still be putting out records and living with his family in 10 years
alldelicious2 Bipolar/Manic Depression specifically, which is what he had. Compounded with drug addiction. Serious mood swings.
tdogg65 peace fighter He says he finds himself falling asleep when talking to people because they just bore him so much or he just doesn't feel like socializing. He says he would prefer to sleep all day and stay in a coma. That is not a healthy state to be in. He seems to feel really alone and at the same time that he his pressured by everyone. Most of the time he doesn't want to deal with life, basically. Can't blame him.
Talking about "when Frances is 12 and asks me..." and "10 years down the line just putting out my own records..."
Sounds like future plans to me.
Suicide isn't always something premeditated. As someone who has experienced depression firsthand for a long time, suicide attempts are often an impulsive thing.
I feel like I'm the only one who knows Nirvana and Kurt Cobain in today's generation and I'm 14. It's a tragedy that music is mostly about Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber, Kanye West, etc that no one even hears music from a legend like Kurt. I honestly think Kurt wasn't planning to commit suicide and was beginning to make changes in his life. He loved being a father and had plans to make music apart from Nirvana. I don't know if he was murdered or committed suicide, but that doesn't stop me from idolizing him. Next year, it's about to be 20 years since the world lost Kurt. Kurt, you'll always be the best fucking legend in my opinion. I miss you but we'll never forget you. +
Finally someone who thinks like me.
same dude.
+Steve Guaman UH IM SO EDGY! IM ONLY 14 YEARS OLD! UH IM SO SPECIAL! fuck you, attention bitch....
Now that your 17 can you see how stupid and embarrassing this statement was?
Loll^^
I wish I could hear his music 10 yrs from this...imagine how it would be in the music industry if he was still here
i feel so sad when he talks about how he would have liked his future to be RIP Kurt
Some of those words he is saying are in the note that was left by Kurt
I know how he feels i currently sleep to avoid life and people it's like a drug addicted to the feeling of calmness and self control
Amen it's a common depression tactic I can sleep for 13 hours at a time
he pretty much says it all here. About "not being able to go on" etc etc..fascinating interview..
Did you hear Courtney lost custody of Frances once again, to Kurt's mom?
She's an adult. No one has custody of her.
good job bro, stay clean if you can. must be tough, cant imagine your pain.
he said about 99% of them stating there are a few exceptions. he also said its ok if they do other things and Henry Rollins is also an actor and musician. he doesn't ruin peoples lives like most journalists that only care about the story not the people.
2.) After El Duce slipped up and name dropped "Allen" in that "Kurt and Courtney" documentary, El Duce was killed days later, he was hit by a train. I came across an old article where it shows Allen Wrench at the train tracks and it says he was the last person to see his friend Eldon Hoke aka "El Duce" alive.
What's the background music?
Why do all of these revolutionary musician seem to go out the same way and sound even similar. Kurt Cobain, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix...
2:42
One of the reasons many reasons I don't think he killed himself.
same. i personally believe that his 'suicide note' was actually a goodbye note to nirvana cuz he wanted to make records on his own (edit: or he wanted to quit music altogether)
Add it to the list of hundreds. Yet people still think it was suicide smh
@@hoi7183 that or he was quitting the music scene all together, I know he said here he would put records out himself but I think by the time he was killed he was thinking of mostly quitting.
Sadie Adler yess exactly
Denial
Oh, okay. Didn't mean to sound condescending. Muddy Waters is a Blues legend who influenced many people including Jimi Hendrix, Chcuk Berry and others
i agree, listening to him talk about how he is going to explain his drug use to his daughter actually made me doubt whether it was a suicide.
We were originally talking about drug use, not Kurt's feelings about journalists. I repeat, no one saw Kurt shooting up in '94.
Kurt was an old Soul.
Thank You, Kurt. Thank You for everything. You have changed me... changed me in a good way. I have learned from You that it's easy to be honest. It's easy to be myself. Thanks for that. You've made me happy.
@ChadRB88: Kurt was about to divorce Courtney for adultery. She had signed a prenup and would have gotten little from a divorce. "Live through This" was about to come out and many feel the songs were actually written by Kurt though she likes to take full credit. She was jealous of his talent. A lot of motive there.
Kurt is my twin flame always ❤️❤️❤️❤️🎸🧍♂️
These interviews were done with M. Azerrad in february and march 1993.
an amazing legend.
one person i wish i can see live.
That last part shook me because I sleep to avoid the pain too.... I think sleep is my drug of choice because I feel the best when I'm don't have to deal with anyone or anything.... better then any drug our there but just like any drug it's only a temporary high😒
how he talks about nihilists in part 1 and about hating and judging everyone is literally what im going through right now
Most people (aside from Courtney Love) don't believe the Rome OD was a suicide attempt. Courtney just started calling it that after his death, its part of the myth she created. Even the doctor who tended to Kurt after the OD has said it wasn't a suicide attempt.
what is that song that starts at 1:19? please someone answer i love it so much, can’t make out the lyrics
That the thing about wanting to just be in a coma at the end. I have literally thought to myself one thousand times.
Wow kurt said he would put out albums under his own name in about 10 years damn wish he was still alive today R.I.P.
He actually said he would beat the shit out of a woman. That’s so un Kurt.
That just shows how fed up he was with the media he went from being “woke feminist” to wanting to beat the shit out of a female reporter for talking about his wife and trying to get his kid taken away
RIP
...something in the way...
I don't get it when people say shit like that. *If* he was murdered, the people responsible need to be brought to justice. Its not just a matter of "letting it be".
It's so sad that he is talking about what he would tell his daughter when she was 12 years old, and then he took his own life.. :(
He's right about rugs, I've had problems with them. They're not 100% bad, they can help you open up to people, but if you get strung out on them they wil FUCK you up. And I feel him on the moodiness thing, I hate when people think you're depressed just cuz you're not smiling all the time.
Vanity Fair magazine did an article implying that Courtney was doing heroin while pregnant with Frances Bean. It almost caused them to lose custody of her.
