Paj! Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 She was behind the murder..? I lol'd. If she was, as she has been accused of by so many pissed off Cobain fans, why would she try and continue having a career? She had 3 albums after he died (with Hole, and solo). Her next one's coming out soon. The attention would just put more speculation of her, as it has. It's just ridiculous what people think sometimes.
Wesley Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 I think it's pretty obvious about Kurt. He was a selfish and stupid lyrical genius with serious depression. He killed himself. He rocked hard.
Emasher Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 Not as bad as when a person's head went missing out of a funeral home the day before the funeral a few years back in my city.

Surely thats pretty damn obvious why she'd continue her music career even if she did kill Kurt? Money. Was your entire argument about her *not* killing Kurt purely because she'd hate what people thought of her if she persued a music career? She wants money. The attention that this whole news story will attract the media which she can turn into paid interviews etc. Surely this was obvious? But ofcourse, this conflicting opinion of ours was bound to happen. As I stated, I hate her. As you stated earlier, you love her.
Jimbob Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 Makes me laugh a bit, but at the same time why steal the ashes?. Makes me feel sick really.
Chris the great Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 maybe some guy thought it was milkshake powder and drank it.
EEVILMURRAY Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 I think it's pretty obvious about Kurt. He was a selfish and stupid lyrical genius with serious depression. He killed himself. He rocked hard. Lyrical genius?
Roostophe Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 Lyrical genius? You wouldn't understand. To you, what defines a "lyrical genius" is putting Arnie quotes in their music. And the theme to Ghostbusters. Not that there's anything wrong with that, mind.

I'd understand more if Amy Winehouse/Lindsay Lohan were his widow, people constantly in the press and doing nothing with their lives. She's been really stupid with drugs and stuff, but even so. I don't understand why people need to draw conclusions on things. Anyway, i'm over it. Except I just have to add that Elvis is still alive, he just faked his own death.

Not that there's anything wrong with that, mind. Just because I like songs that have the previously mentioned qualities, doesn't mean I don't appreciate good lyrics. I find the works of Billy Joel and Elton John to be quite genius in the lyrical department.

I find the works of Billy Joel and Elton John to be quite genius in the lyrical department. Heh. I was only joking. I know you're a fan of "Hallelujah" (John Cale's version, yes?) that song's got some amazing lyrics. I'll also agree with the Elton John and Billy Joel bit, although I'm the last person besides Mark Lamarr to be a fan of both.
EEVILMURRAY Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 I'll also agree with the Elton John and Billy Joel bit, although I'm the last person besides Mark Lamarr to be a fan of both. How dare j00! O_o Where are those genius lyrics I've heard so much about though.
Roostophe Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 How dare j00! O_o Where are those genius lyrics I've heard so much about though. I dunno. You're the one that said it. Although, "Candle in the Wind" has just snuck into my mind...
EEVILMURRAY Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 I dunno. You're the one that said it. I mean from Cobain.
Roostophe Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 I mean from Cobain. Oh, erm... Well. There's "Sliver". Who else could make a song about staying around your grandparent's house and make it sound good? Everybody likes the overrated "Smells Like Teen Spirit". Probably some good lyrics in there, but I can't find them. (I hate that song, anyway.) Actually, I think it's best if you ask a proper die-hard Nirvana fan. Preferably someone who knows where they were when they learnt that Kurt Cobain was dead. : peace:

Christ that song is shit.
Roostophe Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 Asking one of those would probably get Smells Like Teen Spirit as a response... Christ that song is shit. Okay. Your best bet is to find somebody who owns and has actually listened to their first album (which wasn't Nevermind.). They're probably harder to find, but they are definitely more easy to approach...
EEVILMURRAY Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 I think one of my ex's might be someone to ask about that.
Roostophe Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 I think one of my ex's might be someone to ask about that. Ah, there you are then. Ask them and see what they say. : peace:
Iun Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 Hooray! Thank the Lord Of All Bananas that there are other people who hate "Smells Like Teen Spirit".
Jamba Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Murray, Something in the Way has pretty good lyrics. Have a gander at In Utero in general some nice little bits in that but I guess its all about what you like really though isn't it? And to add to the flames, I'm anti-Courtney. On top of her horrendousness both while Cobain was alive and afterwards, she constantly fucked Dave Grohl around about the Nirvana right so they couldn't release any other stuff. Nobody heard Stacked Dead Actors then?
Noodleman Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 I don't get why people dislike Courtney Love... Becasue she was the Yoko Ono of Nirvana. Edit: have a read of this http://www.buzzle.com/editorials/12-14-2001-8636.asp Love the fact she thinks Dave Grohl is doing it to make a quick a buck. He clearly needs the cash after all. I've never met a proper Nirvana fan who thinks smells like teen spirit is their best song. Hell even Nirvana hated it in the end. Best Nirvana songs clearly: About a Girl Sliver Heart Shaped Box Drain you Aneurysm
Mr_Odwin Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Best Nirvana songs clearly: About a Girl Sliver Heart Shaped Box Drain you Aneurysm Smells Like Teen Spirit was awesome because the first time you heard it it was like nothing else that was being played on the radio. The music of the early 90s was not great but Teen Spirit changed the whole music scene. But yeah, it's been overplayed. My favourite Nirvana songs are: Big Cheese Rape Me Very Ape Mexican Seafood Breed Drain You Kurt wrote lyrics that were pretty nonsensical but sounded nice when he sang them. I don't look for deep meaning in lyrics so his approach is fine by me.
