Kurt Cobain: The Paradox of a Generational Icon 

The first version of this video got age-restricted but this one is CLEARED 🙏

One of the hardest things I ever had to hear was a suicidal person saying the pressure of staying alive to avoid hurting others was the heaviest burden they carried.

I was 22 when he died in 1994. You’d be surprised how many Black people like me loved Nirvana, a lot of rappers liked and respected him, and hip-hop artists as well. He significantly changed music the way the Beatles, Elvis, Leadbelly, Coltrane, Muddy Waters, Jimi Hendrix, and many more did. RIP Kurt.

I like how you explained the complexities of Kurt Cobain instead of trying glamorize him. It’s so tempting to paint him as the coolest apathetic person in the world

When Kurt died, I hung myself from a tree. The branch broke . I later got married and have two boys, now 16 and 17. Life does change, and it does get better.

"I'm not gay but I wish I was just to piss off the homophobes" What a legend lmao. Nirvana was my childhood, I was only 8 when Kurt died so vaguely remember his death but his music had a big impact on my life.

"Kurt wasn't just an icon for generation X. Every single generation, and person has their own unique relationship with him."

I'm 85 years old and just now connecting with Kurt Cobain. This is a remarkable film and engrossing beyond measure. Thank you. I love Nirvana's music and Kurt Cobain's story reflects a soul we know all so well. Genuine peace and love.

Kurt was absolutely a renaissance man. His art is mind blowing. So talented and under rated regarding his paintings and sculpture.

I really like how you’ve realistically portrayed Kurt. Most people just see the blasé, disinterested, accidental rockstar who hates the mainstream. What you’ve done in this video is shown him from all angles, not just the fantastical romanticised angle most people paint him with. Well done, sir.

I miss someone I never met.

I’m always in awe of Kurt. Both his bad and good sides. He was one of the last true artists to be able to achieve recognition. I also appreciate that your documentary didn’t blame Courtney. She’s gotten way too much hate for being flawed.

As a kid, I couldn't understand how could this guy look like a complete slacker, play just three chords and be amazing all at the same time. Then, I woke up after unplugged. It became completely clear that he was completely calculating and well practiced. He was a hard working genius who hussled until his body was taken over from the drugs.

Age restricting a video like this is to not only deny the general public a great piece of art. But to discourage younger generations to discover the importance of mental health. A kid might sit in class and roll their eyes when a teacher brings it up, but youtube is a community where a whole generation is finding the voices they understand and respect. Keep up the great work Soulr!

How exhausting it must've been to have two sides of your mind constantly battling each other to no end. That on top of relationship issues, past family trauma, drug problems, self destructive thought patterns and pressing controversies within the media, this man needed an escape and peace. Unfortunately he felt as if his escape and peace would never exist in this world. RIP Kurt you will live on in our hearts forever. Touching souls within the riveting music you created alongside Dave and Krist.

I was 16 going on 17 when i heard that he passed. I found out at school and i remember looking out the window of my art class not wanting to believe it. Nirvana was why i started playing music and playing in bands all the way to my 40s. They will always have a place in my heart. Listening to them is like getting in a time machine now days. Even though a frown eventually comes on my face because of what happened in the end. The smile it puts on definitely outweighs the frown. Im so glad i got to come of age with so many great bands. Now im the old guy reminiscing on the good ol days. lol. I wouldn't have it any other way 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂

Born in Aberdeen and living in the area his influence never left. This place still lives and breathes Kurt Cobain, whether it’s by choice or just the culture.

This is probably one of my favorite Kurt videos. Many of them demonize Courtney or focus on his drug use. I loved how he stood up for women at a time that it wasn't as popular.

At this point, it is safe to say that Kurt has achieved rock-and-roll immortality alongside the Beatles and Elvis

Rewatching this film for 4 or 5th time, and it is still one of the best documentaries about him. We have a great pleasure to watch it for free. Huge thanks for you man, spectacular work

One thing that baffles me to this day, is that there were two people actually present in the house. Courtney asked them to stay there in case he showed up, which he did and they heard him come in, but they were too high on H to move out of the room they were in. If they weren't high, they may have been able to prevent his death. Crazy

Nirvana had to happen. Something was brewing in the underground and Nirvana were the first band that distilled the angst and anger of an entire generation into perfect songs. Bands like Hüsker Dü, Sonic Youth, The Melvins, Soundgarden, R.E.M. and many, many more had laid the foundation, but Nirvana marked the spot when all of 80s indie / rock converged into something bigger. The jump from "Bleach" to "Nevermind" is astounding. "Bleach" is cool, but still super rough and clearly influenced by other bands from the scene. "Nevermind" is paradoxical in itself: It's aggressive and vulnerable, it's harsh and beautiful. And "In utero" is exactly the album it had to be. It's a giant "fuck you" to the music industry, but still so catchy, even stuff like "Milk it", which is borderline insane. Nirvana meant so much to me when I was a teenager. They were the first band that really got to me.

Trauma is what ties us to this guy. He resonates with a lot of people who hurt inside. It sucks to have a hole in your heart, it really does RIP and get to therapy when you can, shit will change your life

Thank you for not undercutting Courtney Love’s impact on Kurt. I think people tend to skip over the way she impacted his life and artistry just because of personal bias, but you’re exactly right; they made each other better artists, even if they weren’t good for each other in other ways. For the record, I don’t believe that she had any direct involvement with his death. He wanted to die, and sadly, succeeded. I hate that he never got the help he needed because he deserved better from life. I hope that his sensitive soul is at peace, and that he can feel the genuine love that so many people have for him, in some way.

“We are all alone in this together” never a truer sentence ever muttered. Great perspective on kurt and being human in general. Thank you.❤

Have been a Nirvana fan since the 90's and this is one of the best Kurt documentaries I've seen. It's refreshing to have someone look at him from an artistic perspective rather than all the drama.

I'm Kurt's age, remember clearly the moment his death was announced on the radio. It was devastating, it felt like an entire era had ended in many ways.

i think this is the most beautiful documentary i’ve ever seen on kurt cobain. everything from the music to the photos/clips used was so well done

I belive Kurt was an introspective person who had a great inner world, which is probably why he was so creative and a perfectionist. Drugs distorted that world and that makes me very sad. Finding people with an open mind and vision of themselves is not so common, and I think it is a very good quality to make art and make meaninful connections with others. I really like your documentary. Great content and message. Thank you for your work! :)

The acoustic pieces in the background really highlights the sense of melody in Kurt's songwriting and its phenomenal. Best documentary about Kurt and Nirvana I've seen so far

I can't believe this video is free. This is top quality content. Your perspective was well informed and carefully researched. You made very clear the duplicity of Kurt Cobain that you don't hear another documentaries. Good shit man. I'm very impressed

56:45 is in my opinion the most spot on thing when it comes to his suicide. Once again in my opinion, this is exactly what Kurt was going through and no doubt led to his suicide. The mind is a dangerous place, try to stay out of it.

I believe that Kurt's constant state of duality may be due to his untreated bipolar disorder. I have bipolar 1 disorder and I feel like my beliefs and opinions are almost entirely dependent on what my current mood is. Kurt's addiction is also most likely due to bipolar disorder. Around two out of three people who have bipolar disorder also develop a drug addiction. One out of five people with bipolar disorder die by suicide and almost half will try. Untreated bipolar is no joke. I think that Kurt's life is a textbook example of how untreated bipolar disorder can damage someone's life

As someone who has spent way too much time watching documentaries of Kurt online, this one is by far the best I have ever seen. You approached this beautifully. The way in which you examined Kurt's life from beginning to end and made logical assumptions on the effects of major life events (such as parents' divorce, a few breakups with long term girlfriends, the desire to be the greatest band in the world, etc...) while ultimately understanding that we can never know what Kurt was TRULY experiencing, as is the case for all humans, was superb. Many documentaries tend to overplay Kurt's drug addiction and Courtney's negative influence on him while underplaying the trauma of his parent's divorce and the pressures of being the frontman of the most famous band on the planet who GENUINELY WANTED TO BE FAMOUS until he achieved it and realized that the responsibility entailed was much more than he ever could have imagined but he he could never go back. You navigated these areas very well. As mentioned before, I appreciate the emphasis you placed on his parent's divorce. As we see in the psychological literature, divorce has life-long negative effects on children and this certainly had a massive impact on Kurt's life. Facts such as Kurt living in 10 homes in the span of roughly four years after leaving his Dad's place and frequently skipping class and hanging with delinquents in high school emphasized this. Perhaps the most impressive aspect of this documentary is that you did what almost NO OTHER DOCUMENTARY HAS DONE: delve into the REALITY of Kurt Cobain rather than the icon he presented to the world. Using various journal entries and certain interviews as evidence, you revealed that Kurt was not as apathetic about fame as he often claimed to be. Kurt DID want to be the most successful band on the planet. This is evident in the fact that after Bleach sold over 40,000 copies with an indie label, he was not satisfied. He wanted his music so sell more. Also by the fact that if he did not see Nirvana on MTV after a certain amount of time, he became upset as he believed people should see his music more. This is hardly ever mentioned in documentaries on Kurt, but you brought them in and it changed the entire piece. It shows that Kurt was much more complex than he is often portrayed (and that is saying something because he is already portrayed as one of the most complex artists of all time) and he had motivations that many of his die-hard fans would be made uneasy to find out. I also appreciated the focus on Kurt's non-musical art. This is also rarely mentioned in other documentaries, or at least not in the way that it was here. When we observe his painting and doodles, we can see that raw pain that we experience sonically in his music visually through images. It adds a deeper layer into the suffering that was so central to Kurts experience of life and his artistic expression. The clips and soundtrack for this piece were incredible. You chose clips that accurately highlighted the given aspect of Kurt's life that was explained and there was not a single clip that felt out of place. I appreciated that besides brief clips of from concerts, you did not use any original nirvana songs. Instead you mainly used Nirvana covers by Justice Der which were unlike anything I have ever heard and set the tone for the entire doc. I do wish you included some snippets from the "blank on blank" interview in which Kurt talked about the divorce and its its negative effects on him (I believe he said something along the lines of "everything was going great in life until the divorce") as well as his chronic stomach pain as I believe it would have added tremendous value to the doc Overall this was a masterpiece. It is better done than some Netflix documentaries. THANK YOU! From now on when someone asks me what is the best documentary on Kurt Cobain, THIS IS IT!

Kurt's death was really the death of my childhood. I graduated high school/turned 18 in 1994. I can't explain how much impact Nirvana and Kurt had on my life. I loved the outlook on life you gave at the end. I often get an angry feeling when I think of Kurt's death and wish he would have continued on past whatever was going on with him at that time. I've dealt with depression all my life, and at times thought of ending it all, but I'm glad I didn't because things have happened in my life that I wouldn't want to not experience. This was excellent, and the guitar covers were amazing as well!

3:14 when she says he looks so comfortable with himself...you can look closely and see his facial expression in reaponse. No words needed to communicate that thought.

i’ve come back to this video now for the 10th time i think. i can’t stop rewatching this because of how well the video was put together. the music, the script, everything. i’ve liked nirvanas music for a bit now, and this video has helped me quench my curiosity on why the band was so short-lived, and what was going on from within. it’s a very sad story about kurt and nirvanas journey, but one that'll stick with us for many years to come.

I saw Nirvana 4 months before Cobain died. It was one of the greatest nights of my life - I was 26 at the time. I even have the first edition of the Book "The Story of Nirvana," written while he was alive. This is a great video that brings up a lot of important points. Learning about how he came up with so little, one can see why he was so unbalanced. I really feel for than man. I had major problems with alcohol, so I can relate to some of his troubles.

I couldn’t help but cry at the end of the video. Kurt and his mentality has always aligned with me and because of him I know I’m not the only person dealing with dark thoughts. Thank you Kurt, for everything. you have saved my life and many others.

Kurt didn't know what he wanted. He was A walking contradiction. He was truly A great artist.

Major props on the soundtrack and audio you used to really push each section of this doc. You’re massively talented bro.

one of the most destructive feelings are self hate and self loath. if see someone and think to yourself "that person is worthless" that person feels the same about themselves hundreds of times more and believe me, when you feel like that, you don't know how NOT to feel like it. it's not as easy as someone saying "don't hate yourself you're fine and great and blah blah" you have to show them the love with care and passion, with your actions not just words. just please don't abandon them you'll regret it

i wasn't even born when Kurt died. i listened to nirvana years later. and i still listen to their songs. forever my fav band.

As a 44 year old, the most interesting part was listening to you describe how we used to procure music... I did definitely trade in my Christmas CDs, but the first one I ever got was Aerosmith. My brother got Nirvana, and we used to share Cds. The struggle was real. I really enjoyed your documentary. Thanks!

The way you interpreted Cobain’s death is why I keep going back to this video. Really powerful stuff, despite me being born after all these events.

Damn…I just cried my eyes out…the most heartbreaking and yet the most beautiful documentary I've ever seen

You’ve really produced one of the best tributes to Kurt there is on RU-vid. Amazing work.

Talented journalism here, folks. This guy has done his research and has a refined and poignant portrait of Kurt. Very impressed. Oh..and thank you for your work.

This is just perfection. The video editing was fantastic and it made me think about drugs and suicide like i never did. Thanks for making this video, thanks kurt for letting us take such a perfect example of rock star and at the same time a second life as a suicidal and drug abusing person

I'm not from Aberdeen but I am from the peninsula, the surrounding region. It's scary and sad how many lives the people I grew up with reflects Kurt's early life. As Soulr mentioned earlier, the internet has changed our part of the world as much as any other, but it's become our drug of choice to combat the isolation. It's crazy how a place can be so beautiful and yet so isolated and economically depressed

No one who is a celebrity became a celebrity "by accident". 4 minutes and 30 seconds into this documentary and I love how you are highlighting the hypocrisies and contradictions of Kurt Cobain, and how he talked out of both sides of his mouth.

Total coincident I watched this video on April 5th 2024. 30 years since Kurt’s been gone, his memory and music lives on.

Dealing with fentenyl addiction right now. I love you Kurt.

Having a child while being in such a destructive suicidal state with addiction problems and perpetual emotional baggage will never not be strange personally. But I'm glad the daughter grew up well.

Man I didn't get big into Nirvana until a close friend in my life introduced me to their music but I understand a lot of where Cobain was and why she enjoyed the band but this hits really hard it's sad that we lost Kurt when we did

Honestly to the person who made this video this message is for you “Thank you so much for making this video I literally cannot stop watching it and it had me in tears every time yes sad tears but dude I never felt so emotionally changed after documentaries until this one this is a true master piece of art in my eyes just outstanding editing and I can tell you did your heavy heavy research like I can tell hard work was put into this I always loved Nirvana but hated them at one point because idk but I got my love for them resparked a while ago and seeing this video has moved me in such a way I can’t describe thank you”

I just realised Cobain was only a year older than me when he died, and he achieved that much

I hope you realize how fucking awesome the content you create is. In a world full of absolute garbage being pumped out everywhere you turn, I frequently watch videos of yours on people that I had absolutely zero interest in going into it. The way you tell the stories of these peoples lives is so inspiring and genuine that every time I end up coming out of it with an entirely new level of respect and interest in the subject of the video that I would have before just dismissed as another random famous person before. What you’ve done, and continue to do here is truly special.

I’ve watched numerous documentaries on Kurt Cobain but this one is by far the best I’ve seen.

Dude, I know my comment is late and you won't prob notice it but your selection of the band Kryzys for the background music moved me. Both Nirvana and Kryzys - bands that displayed a sense of unique sound and melancholy to me when I discovered them in the same year. You put the exact Kryzys songs on the exact moments and emotions of the video as I had organised them in my head! |Thank you!

I’m a huge nirvana fan and this is the best documentary I have seen on Kurt. The information is accurate and it really captured the struggles Kurt had at the end of his life. Lots of people think Courtney killed him, but if you look at everything happening, it’s clear she didn’t. His drug addiction was taking over, he no longer found joy playing music (it became a chore), the band was about to dissolve, his marriage was on the rocks and he felt like a shitty father. I think just about anyone would be suicidal at that point. It’s so sad the only thing left of him is his music 😢 I’ve never related to anyone more than him. Reading his journals was like reading my own thoughts!

Thank you for such a superb and genuinely well-researched doc on one of my teenage icons. The fact that chronic stomach pain was a big reason for his heroin addiction, the correct portrayal of Courtney (that she was already successful independent of Kurt and that he found her intelligent and bold, which he admired), his paradoxical view of life. I’ve read all the books/biographies and seen all the docs and truly dude, excellent work.

This is so well-done. Thank you for taking the time to make a beautiful piece on Kurt. Rare gem.

I’ve seen just about all Kurt Cobain documentary’s, and this one was extremely well made - the closing remarks were super powerful; thanks bro !

This video truly touched me. Brought a tear to my eye. Beautifully done. Growing up he was the only celebrity i could actually identify with. We shared a lot of the same experiences and mental issues as well. I did some pretty self destructive things in my early twenties. Came close to death way too many times for my liking. Came out of it with a son that motivated me to get my shit together. ive been getting help for a couple of years now and have been sober since april of 2021. Ill be 30 next June

There was a real relatable aspect to Cobain, especially if you look at stars before or since. If you were a teen at that time, you really felt the music and that hey, here is a star just like us. He was a huge factor in my generation playing guitar, as unlike the virtuoso playing of the 80s, this was attainable playing, and tons of teens learned because of them. If anything, I always describe the 90s as the decade in music where being really, really different still could mean you would be successful. I can't imagine any other time where bands as diverse as soundgarden, Smashing Pumpkins, beck and soul coughing were getting regular play on MTV and radio. And nirvana were a big part in getting huge exposure to a pile of bands, many on very small record labels. And because the artists were so diverse, and getting exposure, you ended up with a ton of teens and young adults who had wide interests in music... a fella could go on about this. It was a unique seven or eight years in music from 91-98 or so.

I don’t know why, but when I feel down or alone or sad I come back to this video every time.I feel comfort in it for some strange reason but it helps so,thank you

I was 10 years old when he died, at that time I was just getting into music and learning guitar, I had shirts, posters, Nirvana was everything to me at that age. When the day came and the news broke, I was shattered... I remember crying and feeling like I lost a friend. I'm 40 now and I still think about his music and his legacy, what could have been if he been able to get the help he needed.

I think the reason Kurt had different view points is his bi polar disorder. You change your mind and perspective a lot on your past present and future with severe mood changes. It’s a rollercoaster ride of emotions, memories and sensations

Loved this video! A balanced and researched video that didn’t just paint cobain as a brooding, depressed icon. Rather as a real person who had a range of emotions and was wresting with life.

Nirvana was one of the first bands I really loved listening to. He died when I was 12 and I credit them for my love of music. RIP Kurt! Can't believe it's been 30 years since you've gone.

i still come back to this documentary, it’s made with so much love and thoughtfulness

This actually made cry, especially at the end. Nirvana is one of the bands that changed my view on music, and I listen to them almost everyday now. I currently have anxiety and don't have much friends. But when I put on bands like Queen and Nirvana, it feels like heaven. I know my life is still a long way to go. I want to bypass all this and be free from this. After watching this, I know more about Kurt's struggles. This is way I will stay clear of drugs because it took away many legends that died too soon. I hope when I'm on my death bed with my kids and wife beside me, I can take one final breath and remember all that music has done to get me through life and all the memories good or bad. RIP Kurt Kobain.

Hearing Kurt talk about his stomach issues and hearing his experiences with being put on hard prescription as a kid is wild having dealt with and still deal with the same things. I knew I’d relate to him the same way many of his fans relate to his struggles with mental illness but those two things have had massive impacts on my life and health and while common aren’t quite as common

I think this is the greatest RU-vid video I’ve ever watched

30 years ago today , we will miss you for an eternity Kurt.

It’s currently 2am and I was contemplating undoing my life 2day. But you enflamed a fire in me. Thank you

That was fantastic, thank you!! As a generation x’er I lived to experience the beginning of Nirvana and mourned it’s demise. The world lost a beautiful, sensitive and gentle soul when Kurt died. It was a real tragedy. Thankfully, Kurt lives on through his music and through people like you who devote the time to make these documentaries. The 80s and 90s were an amazing time for music and Nirvana was at the top of the music revolution. They forever changed the trajectory by removing the glam rock hair bands and replacing them with a realness that could only be felt at the time. Kurt was who we looked to to feel normal in a world where a lot of us felt we didn’t fit in. What scares me is that we’ve lost so many incredible musicians and artists from my generation way too soon. We need to bubble wrap Dave Grohl and Eddie Vedder…keep them safe.

I was a young teen at that time, now on a bit of a nostalgia kick the last few days. I can still remember the exact moment of first hearing Smells Like Teen Spirit on the radio while stuck in traffic like my first kiss or first hit of weed. Only 8 minutes in I can already tell this is going to be the best video I've seen thus far on the subject. You can really explain how life was back then to a younger generation. Bravo, man.

Kurt Cobain and Prince are the two musicians that I literally feel their soul sing when I listen to their music. I don't know any other way to explain it.

Personally i think kurt crumbled under the pressure from trying to live with "two different personalities" which he created himself.

I was 20 in my parent's kitchen listening to one of the local radio rock stations when one of the DJs announced he was gone...I still miss him and wonder what things would be like if he had been able to keep going. Incesticide is still my favourite Nirvana album, hands down.

I was born in 2003. Music has always been my thing. My family was never perfect and on top of that, I was having a hard time in school and I was struggling with my self worth. I was always the weird kid, I had different interests from everyone around me and this caused me to basically lose almost every friend I'd made up to that point. I was 12, and that was when I found out about Nirvana: Kurt was mentioned in a book I was reading and I had no idea who he was, so I looked him up on youtube. The first Nirvana song I ever listened to was All Apologies. I remember the feeling it gave me so clearly. It was raw, unapologetic, but most of all, it spoke to me. Nirvana really was freedom to me, they channeled all the love I'd always had for the sheer energy of music, and I used their songs to excape from my everyday life. I was never the same after that day and I really do believe that I would be a completely different person now if Kurt's music hadn't helped me so much back then. I'll always be grateful for him for everything that he did for music in general but especially for what he did for people like me. This documentary is probably the best I've ever watched and I love how it doesn't romanticize his personality, instead it emphasizes how we will never really know who he truly was. Despite that, we can still all agree that his loss was tragic: it seems as if he'd never known a single day of peace in his life. And it pains me to know he never really understood how much he really meant to people. He bore the weight of the entire world on his shoulders and he eventually couldn't take it anymore. I love you Kurt, I'll always look up to you. Thank you for everything. I hope you've finally found peace wherever you are. ❤️

Excellent video, editing, pacing, storytelling, music, and message.

57:25 Kurt's mom didn't file a missing person report-that was Courtney pretending to be Wendy. Also, several people DID see Kurt: Francis' nanny, Cali DeWitt, and his girlfriend were staying at the house and said they saw him come inside and talk with him in their bedroom. They also heard him walking around upstairs.

I am thirty seven now. When Kurt's story ended, I was but an eight year old boy. I started learning guitar when I was 14. I have been playing Nirvana songs for 23 years. It is entirely possible that I have been playing them longer than he had. I think he wanted to teach us to play music, no matter where we were at in life. The songs sound so simple, but there's so much depth and nuance behind the riffage. It gives me hope when I find folks who weren't around in his lifetime learning and sharing about what he was about. Thanks for making this video.

I’ve been obsessed with Kurt my whole life and I literally know everything about him and you did a great job on this!

56:00 what an incredible passage and the animation fits perfectly, my favorite part of this video.

Courtney, posed as Kurt’s mother, made the missing person’s report to the police. Great video, great work. The fact that you touched on Kurt’s contradiction’s I think is so important. Especially when it comes to his stomach problem’s and his heroin addiction. Addiction and mental health issues weren’t dealt with back then like they are now. If Kurt lived in this time maybe things would have been different. There is so much more help and understanding for people now. People back then would say “suck it up and get over it!” It’s just not that easy.

I grew up in an analog world and now I have a deep curiosity of obscure media. I absolutely adore cover art, specifically laser discs as they are the LP of home cinema

The way you bring us back to the time of the 80s and 90s with the second intro is amazing, got me already happy with the video before even watching the content. You sir make great videos and know how to make REAL content that doesn’t leave you as empty when you leave as when you started. Thank you for that.

What a crazy good documentary. Nirvana was and still is always a part of so many of us. ❤ Rest Easy Kurt

The most important artist of my childhood. Now I know why. His story is almost exactly my story. I had a spiritual connection to him I felt but didn't know completely why...it devastated me when he died. I was 12. I remember exactly where I was standing.

Generation X Very much a lost generation between boomers and millennials. I graduated high school as the Seattle scene popped and took over. I was only 5 years younger than Kurt and yet he felt like he was aged for beyond his years. So many musicians of my era have died to drugs or depression, but as you said, they all left a lasting mark on millions of lives. I will forever be indebted to these people who gave me a voice, when I was afraid to have one, or thought I didn’t deserve one. You have to ready to fight, for your life sometimes because life will never take a day off. Even now, as I fight cancer I find comfort in the words and melodies of my youth and they gave me strength to keep fighting. I wish it did the same for them.

i love this video so much!!! its so stylistic, extremely researched, well put together and truly real

Thank you for this beautiful biographic video essay. Kurt died a month before I was born so I only remember hearing his music on the radio and then later in my early 20s when I was struggling with finding myself and navigating the world on my own I listened to his music religiously and read Heavier than Heaven. Kurt and Nirvana was and is a huge inspiration in my life and art. Life can be hard but without the hard parts we can't appreciate the good parts! ❤ If you're struggling, hang in there and something good will happen!

Kurt will always hold a special place in my heart as I thank him so much for sweeping all the posers under the carpet and making authentic music and art at that time a main focus again...his melodic sense was pure natural genius whether he knew it or not and took great care in creating it.he never wrote a bad song in my opinion...I miss him being on this planet every day

Kurt’s music has kept people alive, something he could not achieve by himself. I think he knew that what he left behind was going to be the best version of himself, in his music.

A beautifully sensitive video on a man who touched the lives of millions.

I like the narration here you capture my attention in a poetic way.
