      God is good. Repent and believe the gospel. Jesus Christ died for your sins and rose from the dead. You can be forgiven. You must be born again. There was a woman who had an alabaster box of very precious ointment and she poured it on the head of Jesus. We need to honour the King. The Lord God. ”that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.“
      John 3:15 KJV. The Lord Jesus Christ. Repent means change, change from sin. Turn away from sin. Love and fear God. Call on the name of Jesus Christ. Draw nigh to God and he will draw nigh to you. He saved me. There is the lake of fire which is burning for eternity and there is heaven. I have eternal life in heaven because of what the Lord has done. Be ready for the day of judgement.

    Hello anyone reading. There was MUCH more to this interview than just this short piece. I hope
    that someday they release the whole thing because it was the only time I actually ever told this story with anyone. (ON camera, anyway).....
    I talked about the loss of my dear friend Elliott Smith (who was a little brother to me, and how I looked out for him, and how we shared time on the road, and our friendsip.....), Elliott also passed away....And I talked
    about the fact that, if Kurt had the chance to have met Elliott (the window of time between them meeting each other was tiny) -Maybe 5 months.
    Kurt would have adored Elliott. If they had gotten the chance to meet, I honestly think they would have made music together, and
    quite possibly, saved each other's lives through the love of music, and what they could have balanced out, and given each other.
    But alas, it never happened. But my God, I SO wish Kurt had hung on long enough to have met, befriended, and ultimately made music with
    Elliott. In the "extended" interview (that you do NOT see here), I told that story as well. Elliott was in Portland after finishing College
    at Hampshire, and Kurt died just a couple months before. Man, if they had ONLY gotten the chance to meet. It should have happened, and it
    would have been amazing for both of them. For Kurt to find Elliott. It quite possibly could have saved him. Just saying. Someday
    I hope this entire interview (not just THIS clip) will be shown. There was SOOO much more to it, and so much more I said about those first few months of Nirvana's breaking, etc.......anyway, It meant a lot to me, and I THOUGHT they were going to run the whole
    story about everything I said. But, they cut is short. ANyway.....In my mind, Kurt and Elliott are together and finally met. I miss them both
    SO very much.

      Hey, Mary, thank you for sharing all of this. I'm sorry they disregarded so much of the interview. These large corporate media houses are awful, especially when it comes to deeply human things such as these.
      I highly recommend you reach out to Daniel Sarkissian here on UA-cam for an interview and an opportunity to speak about these things for posterity. He does a ton of Nirvana related interviews with people who knew and worked with the band, and I'm certain he would be thrilled to hear your stories about Kurt and Elliot. Most importantly, he wouldn't cut any of the interview out. Just something to consider. I think it's important for these stories to be told in full, and I would love to hear the details of what you've outlined here.

Besides, he made his choice knowing full well who she was, a former stripper with addiction and anger problems. He liked that. She had a bad reputation. He didn't care. Water seeks it's own level.

    Tracy Marander was the most important of Kurt's ex-girlfriends because she was the one who was behind his creative genius by giving him some emotional security and financial support for about 2 years that allowed him to concentrate ONLY on his music and have the freedom to write almost all of the songs from Bleach, Incesticide and part of Nevermind during the period they were together as a couple (Kurt lived at her house for a time where he also did some paintings and artwork)!

    Mary Lou Lord is a living legend. Been listening to her stuff since 1993. If anything I hope all the people who came here to read about Kurt go and check her music out. Start with Got No Shadow album or Martian Saints EP. Great stuff!!!

      no she isn't a living legend. she'd be unknown if it weren't for the fact she drops kurt's name all t he time. Disgusting .

    I remember the day I first saw them on MTV. I had just gotten home from school. I used to have a small tv propped up next to my bed. I was laying on my stomach and saw their video. I was at the mall buying "Nevermind" that week....possibly the next day after school. I vaguely remember riding my bike to the mall which was less than a mile from the school. Not too long after that I was with my church group w the Unitarian Church out in the mountains at some place you can rent a whole camp area. There was a band that played.....the kids from other Unitarian CHrich's from other cities were really into the flannel shirt attire and just dressing freaky. That was the first time I'd seen "moshing" and also the first time I'd heard Eddie Vedder's voice. The song "Black" was playing between sets and I remember being really transfixed by this song. That was quite a weekend. Never seen anything like it my whole life.

    Wow what could've been. Kurt met Courtney at a Portland show. He himself said he had never met anyone so outspoken and charismatic. He loved the excitement she brought to their relationship. Courtney was like a version of him he could never bring himself to be. He was more shy and introverted. That's probably why he was so attracted to her more than any other chick in that era. Their drug abuse brought them closer together unfortunately, but even with Frances and his rise to fame, he couldn't handle it. It's such a shame to see someone like that go. We have lost too many people to addiction and suicide. It's not fair for people to blame Courtney for his death when he was an adult that made his own decisions. She tried to help him even when she was battling with her own addictions. For their marriage, Frances, and the band. Because he wanted to end it all. And he did. Tragically.

      Right! He decided himself bc this is his life. people act like he is baby innocent. Kurt have sex with many girls like Courtney. Kurt have bad habit and selfish too. He cheated normal girls all for Courtney. He have double dippin. Obviously He never want stability life. I believe Courtney give sex, drugs and raw him.
      kurt outspoken and raw more bc Courtney influenced him. I mean Courtney many guy want slept with her too. 90s she beautiful and sexier. Great body.
      Back then he have many girls for chooses it. But the end he chose Courtney

    People say she's better than Courtney but what made Kurt what we know today was his relationship with Courtney too. People hate Courtney but Kurt loved her and that's what matters in the end.

    It's a shame he didn't end up with Mary Lou, instead of Courtney Love. Maybe he'd have never become a heroin addict and maybe he'd still be alive as well.
