I always loved about kurt that behind the rough rock monster exterior, the guy in his heart was an intellectual who had more of a love for works of the mind , than the superficial tidal wave that fame brought down on him. What a loss.
Shayne O'Neill it killed him,i have a theory Kurt knew exactly what he was gonna do once superstardom hit.......punk 101 ........your right,how fucking sad,a huge loss,but without the death of the creative force in a band,you won't become a legend,if hed lived would he off faded away like most??? who knows.....27 club.....Kurt was not a nieve person,i don't believe,and I don't really buy the murder angle,saying that Hendrix was (murdered)at 27 Kurt's had the same treatment......imo
+Maroon Blossom that's exactly what happened, you've been fooled. It's called putting on a front. People that are depressed and/or suicidal have good days and bad days just like everyone else. Clearly you don't deal with anything like this, and your very lucky.
Goggle products Holy shit dude you’re paranoid as babyshit what the hell.. and there is video of pregnant Courtney so there goes your whole theory that you wrote for shit. Just made a fool out of youself.
one of my uncles friends had the opportunity to interview him and get a pic with him in 1990 before teen spirit came out and they were still kinda underground. and he said Kurt was zoning out and obviously on drugs. but that's the only negative thing he said about Kurt.
I'm a guy and I've always been fascinated with him. I mean. He was full of contradiction. He drove the safest car in the world and under speed limit for fear of a wreck yet regularly he injected himself with heroin. That right there is interesting.
That's because the people who are actually smart inherently have a university within them. They're curious, observant, empathic, analytic, and more -- all on their own.
as someone who also dropped out..school doesn’t teach you social skills or how to be a wise person. that’s something you learn over time of being a human and going through experiences that make you wiser, some people make mistakes and dont learn from them and a some people do. school only teaches you how to be book smart to go along with your “built in” intelligence.
Kurt is a Kennedy Democrat, same as I was. He’d never agree with Progressives today, it’s not how we were raised. Him and me are the same age, we both grew up on the streets, we both know right from wrong, and were sympathetic to good people who get picked on for stupid reasons like the gay thing at the time. The bottom line is politically we support the working class and good people shouldn’t get messed with for dumb reasons, forget party.
School teaches you to be a functioning member of society , or rather an obedient member, doesn't teach you much else, except to pass certain tests and exams

+Mary Erre Actually she looks unprepared .. And i'm pretty sure she wasn't holding a paper or a bunch of questions on her mind .. Cause she always had that "eghhh" "eghh" in the beginning of the sentence wich makes the interview more enjoyable.

+Kiameri Fame was a poison to him. He wanted to keep it real (that's what his music was if anthing!) But unfortunately nothing distorts the world more then never ending fame without any pause from it.

It also helped she asked him other questions like about books and stuff like that cause his face lights up when he talked about a book he was obsessed with at the time lol
@@Takaichi666- yeah when they talk about the Patrick Suskind book Perfume and also when they discuss ‘new wave’ music.. you can see he’s genuinely excited to talk to her. After all, she had a wide knowledge of music working at Much music.
theres something so heartbreaking when kurt replies "I've always been a nice guy" when the interviewer asks about his "change in personality"... such a gentle and misunderstood human being, may he rest in peace
Its a common response to questions about the future! No one knows the future so of course you will get nervous when asked about the future since we don't now what's certain in the future....duh are you not gifted with common sense like me?
Alternativegamer99, I think i know what you mean because I feel a strange dark emotion or some sort of mass deep sadness. Is it because we know now that his life was about to be taken away I don't know. It's just so flipping sad and the sadness hasn't really change or got any less since the 90s. same as Tupac. 2 huge losses in my life. I believe he knew dark forces were coming for him and to know that will always make me sad inside when I think of this.
Beautiful. That man was physically beautiful and his heart was beautiful and I love how gentle he was when answering these question. Such a shame he's gone.
This is the best Kurt interview I have ever seen and I've seen them all. Great job Erica!! This guy was so intelligent and sweet it breaks your heart. Erica really asked interesting questions and got him to open up in a way that was sincere and genuine. I often wonder what the next Nirvana album would have been like and I think Kurts admission to new wave was quite revealing.
Firstly, he killed himself because he was a heroin addict. Being powerless over such drugs that grip you mind body and spirit would drive anyone insane. It affected him mentally and anything else is speculation. If he was clean, if he got clean... I doubt he would have been so unhappy. Secondly, Stephanie, what in the hell are you talking about? Nobody said anything about knowing the man. You don't have to know him personally to miss him. Derp.
The way he speaks about love is so beautiful, he’s heart was so pure , he would truly hate what this modern day world has come to. He was too good for this world.
He was so thoughtful and smart in that interview. I can see him having gone to college for some humanities degree like literature or art history. Such a sweetheart too
Her name is Erica Ehm and she was a great VJ for Muchmusic in the 80’s/90’s…perfect interview…almost seems like it was recorded on a high quality Handycam.
I love the part when they start talking about new wave right around 14:00. When the interviewer says how much she loved it and Kurt just simply says “me too”
The reason why this interview is so good is because the girl is not one of those normal mtv hosts, she is thoughtful and sweet and into books so I guess that made Kurt drop his guard.
I find it interesting how he blows his smoke away as to not get in the faces of the interviewers. Even then, he was trying to be polite and considerate.
Watching this makes me sad. i was born in 1999 so i never ever have a Chance to meet him in my damn life. He means SO much to me. i am aswell, as he was, Depressed, suicidal and anti-social. i really feel Connected to him, he is also the reason why i picked up the guitar. not being able to meet him finishes me really off. it's crazy. r.i.p. Kurt, you mean so much to many people.
i was born in 1999 too. it makes me so fucking sad that he took his life. he's so talented and unique. It just kills me that I never got to meet him. he's a legend.
Of all the interviews that Kurt has been through, this is the most I have ever seen him most comfortable and relaxed. Erica seemed genuine and real with her interview, and Kurt recognized that.
He was so ahead of his time. People still aren't where Kurt was 20 years ago. like gay marriage, sexism. people are still ignorant today about those things. he'd hate this place if alive today.
How can you not love Kurt? Even though he sounds so depressing and sad. I mean...there are somethings you can never explain. Unlike most "rockstars" he sounds so down to earth, and honestly...he is the ONE rockstar that I really believe when he says that he very uncomfortable with fame.
Always a mystical figure for me Kurt was. I was born in 93 so didn’t grow up with Nirvana until my teens when they were long gone so these videos are all I have. What an incredibly talented and beautiful person he was
I feel like Kurt really liked the first question she asked. Instead of getting right into the whole WHAT DOES YOUR MUSIC MEAN stuff right away, she simply asked a question that many interviewers don't ask. To me it seemed like he found that a refreshing, different, and somewhat nice question to ask. Anyone else agree? Just going off his body language of course.
This man has changed my entire life as weird as it sounds. I was born in 2004, I feel so sad that I will never get to see him, meet him, be alive at the same time as him. Rest in peace we miss you so damn much it hurts.
The more interviews I watch with Kurt the more I like about him. He's a really understanding, chill and kind guy. We need Kurt in our modern day world. R.I.P Kurt, everyone misses you.
Two Seattle Icons long gone, the Kingdome and Kurt. I was lucky enough to see them live at Key Arena in Seattle in 1993, that was a great time for music, I was a teenager just learning how to play guitar, I remember learning the Teen Spirit riff, I never heard anything like that before, a great time to be a teenager and a music fan. Heartbreaking that he couldn't work through his problems, life is hard for everybody, even money and success couldn't bring him happiness.
Wally Schroeder Smells like teen spirit drove me insane and I would guess after a while, it drove Kurt nuts. Imagine going from homeless, to a millionaire, then having to play that same fucking song over and over again. The man killed himself. End of story. Courtney made a load of money off it, and she knew she would. Her own Dad said the reason she was so good at playing Althea Flynt is because that was the real Courtney.
Le'Vin Moser I think most homeless people who pan handle play the exact same song everyday and the cool part is some actually make more than people getting paid 25$ an hour , so in their cases I don't think they get tired of the same song cause it feeds them , it's just that it's that fact that they are homeless and that this is how they make their living cause other wise I think they would all want a normal job making less money , cause at least they aren't looked at as homeless
I remember learning the teen spirit riff, I was about 15, I played it over and over, driving my parents nuts! Oh when I learned the solo I thought I was the shit! Hahah jumping around headbanging and shit
When ever I'm having a shitty day, I watch this. A lot of the time, Nirvana/Kurt interviews help me. It seems that in this video, Kurt is really open and comfortable with who he's talking to. It's beautiful.
Luc Power Oh, excuse me!!! hahahahahaha!!! No no it's not your name... I SWEAR, I read: "When ever I'm having a shit, I watch this." And I was like: What Tha Fuck??? And so, then I red, "A lot of the time, Nirvana/Kurt help me" but in my head was: help to shit. Like the face or the voice of Kurt Cobain help this guy to shit (for some reason), and finally "It's beautiful." and in my head I was figuring a big BIG SHIT... You understand now why I was laughing so so baaaaaddd... uahahahahahaahahahaha!!!!
He was so smart and he seemed in control of himself here. How everything spiraled out of control to the point of him ending it all is hard to believe. This is one of the best interviews I’ve seen with him. Such clarity in his words. Very perceptive guy and talented. Too sensitive to live? He seemed ok here. Whatever happened he made his contribution to music and will be remembered. RIP Kurt
two beautiful people talking. i can't get over this guy. he reminds me of my dad who i've lost, and the big brother i never had. i miss him every day, and i know that is sad, but he is so much like my dad i have this weird thing about him.
Wow what an interview, and interviewer. She's so calm, and calming to Kurt. He recognizes her intelligence, and he wants to talk. Think of all the interviews Kurt had to sit through. He's so honest and funny here, and yet there's a sadness, a dysthymia, that seems to dominate his persona.
I love how this video showed a human male express his feelings, before males were accepted like that. The typical male out of hollywood was normally the axl rose type, bang everything he could type male. I love how kurt hid his true intelligence and was an empath. Something most people do not know about.
Kurt really wasn't a total Beta Male like people think. Kurt was very vocal about being the leader of Nirvana and he wanted to do everything his way. He had total creative control from the songs to the Music Videos. He definitely was not a wimp. He was strong in his ideas.
@@dextermoore278he was a wimp who had tantrums now and then. He was a chief over his art and that was it. He barely confronted Dave face to face about firing him. It’s difficult to have a commanding presence when you’re strung out on H weighing 130lbs lol
3:31 Kurt Cobain got the pictures, props for the In Utero album etc. from a medical supply store at the Mall of America in 92-93 in Bloomington, MN. That's so cool. I remember that store I used to go in there myself but unfortunately it's not there anymore...
He was much too humble and real for super stardom. It consumed him. He was super talented but may have fared better behind the scenes or even as a struggling musician. No one since Kurt Cobain has ever come close to creating what he did. He was truly original. It's too bad he was so internally tortured. I am glad that the world received his gift before his departure.
Cobain was down to earth authentic to the bone. Music was his outlet for his pains. It worked for quite some time then it didn't fulfill him like it once did. He enjoyed the early days not so much the popular days at the end. It's kinda like opening the present was better than the present itself after opened.
Good interview-Two weeks ago we went to Aberdeen Wa. and saw his childhood home,, which looks like it did in the 70s,' shag carpet and ugly wood paneling. His mom is wanting 500k for it! It's worth around 60k. We went under the Young St. bridge and sat in the samll park the city made in his honor. Great day, and good way to say goodbye. Then we went to the Hendrix gravesite in Renton, Wa on the same day. Two great local musicians that never should have died so young-27 for both.
This man gave an honest interview while not only being real and absolutely correct he wins my vote for the best music, the best interviews, and best records especially on my birthday in January...@ 39 😆
I love how peaceful he was and even though it was an interview he made it seem like a conversation which I’m sure made it so much easier for her and him.
I just wonder how their future albums would of sounded like had he lived. How he said in utero was the final chapter in the trinity of three-cord grunge music. The were evolving and burning bright, not fading away.
The second he starts talking about finding love and how his perspective of the world has changed since the birth of his child, they change the subject. He lit up and seemed so happy talking about it and they "jokingly" change the subject. It's like people didn't want him to be happy, it wouldn't have worked for them.
He loved Courtney and he loved France's... Everyone has to get over the fact that there was rumours about Courtney even when he was alive, she made him happy. Rest in peace you fucking legendary beautiful person❤️
This is one of the coolest interviews he ever did. This shows what a normal guy he really was and what an artist he was and how he felt about things and the industry... God bless Kurt. 1994 was a terrible year for me personally... A couple of months after Kurt did what he did supposedly... My 21 year-old brother did the very same thing... The same way. It wasn't a copycat or anyting he had his own issues he didn't leave a note... But it was a devastating year of hell on Earth for me. You never get over it you have to learn to live with it but the thing about Kurt is.. and the same way I feel about my brother is that you have to keep them in your heart... And Kurt's music and his art left us behind with all the information and legacy that we can continuously learn from.
It is very interesting to see Kurt look like this. He seems like he is way past his depressive state and drug addiction. To think that he would commit suicide after numerous sources show that he seemed a lot happier, sober and more importantly, living for his daughter and coming to understand what he stood for. I find it so hard to believe that he would take his life, knowing that his daughter needed him, especially after watching so much raw footage of him closer to when he died. It just doesn't make sense.
JF Bruneau I've also always believed he committed suicide but it's so obvious that the case was handled poorly. I'm just keeping an open mind and looking forward to the new movie to shed some light on some other perspectives on this case. AKA the lawyer that was hired to help Courtney Love swears up and down that this case was completely mishandled and should be reopened.
JF Bruneau The Rome incident was NOT a suicide attempt. You are basically having faith in Courtney and not considering the actual facts and physical evidence. If you saw SIB , explain how the shotgun shell position was inaccurate. You can't use real logic to explain the facts they presented away. They mishandled that case. If you think they handled that case properly you are simply putting faith in a pathological liar. I've been learning about Kurt for 23 years. Everyone blows all his lyrics and his depression way out of proportion. Just like Courtney and some evil people would want you to.
Kurt was truly enlightened. His whole state of mind was miles above everyone else. It's sad to see what society is like today, so superficial and materialistic.
I wouldn’t say enlightened but he saw the world for what it is he’s a genius but most geniuses are tortured souls enlightenment is the same concept as ignorance is bliss kinda
Great interview. He was very sincere and cool with her. I didnt know he was so worldly in his scope. Impressive. I gained more respect for kurt from listening to his mind. Rest in power kurt. Much love.!!!☆☆♡♢

Child Exploitation was his undoing!

ive been scrolling so long and ive seen nothing but fangirls from a decade ago
@@knockthebackdoorbeforeleaving he was overrated. Is that better
@@Rebeltime94 no
@@Rebeltime94 He would have been the first to agree with you ;)
She is a great interviewer and Kurt is so perfectly patient and honest with her. Fabulous interview.
i watch this almost every night bc his soothing voice puts me to sleep.
haha I do exactly the same thing, I used to listen to the whole About a son documentary when it was updated on youtube every night.
+Simon Mijatovich Ik it is. most of my life is like this. dead musicians are there for me more than the people i love or know.
same!
You're So Tall I'm from
Kurt is so genuinely unaffected, honest, and sweet that it just pisses me off that he's gone.
He was so thoughtful and smart in that interview. I can see him having gone to college for some humanities degree like literature or art history. Such a sweetheart too
Her name is Erica Ehm and she was a great VJ for Muchmusic in the 80’s/90’s…perfect interview…almost seems like it was recorded on a high quality Handycam.
I love the part when they start talking about new wave right around 14:00. When the interviewer says how much she loved it and Kurt just simply says “me too”
There’s not an atom of dishonesty in him. Powerful intellect and original mind. I miss him immensely
The reason why this interview is so good is because the girl is not one of those normal mtv hosts, she is thoughtful and sweet and into books so I guess that made Kurt drop his guard.
Agreed, I think he recognized it was a genuine conversation and not a cash grab / shock value approach.
I find it interesting how he blows his smoke away as to not get in the faces of the interviewers. Even then, he was trying to be polite and considerate.
Kurt Cobain was an incredible songwriter.
Watching this makes me sad. i was born in 1999 so i never ever have a Chance to meet him in my damn life. He means SO much to me. i am aswell, as he was, Depressed, suicidal and anti-social. i really feel Connected to him, he is also the reason why i picked up the guitar. not being able to meet him finishes me really off. it's crazy. r.i.p. Kurt, you mean so much to many people.
Same reason I picked up guitar as well!
i was born in 1999 too. it makes me so fucking sad that he took his life. he's so talented and unique. It just kills me that I never got to meet him. he's a legend.
oh my gosh thank you.
You are very immature for saying that. Give me a reason why you are calling him names.
Yeah shoenice why are you acting immature towards everyone?
Of all the interviews that Kurt has been through, this is the most I have ever seen him most comfortable and relaxed. Erica seemed genuine and real with her interview, and Kurt recognized that.
the best points in this video were made by kurt himself when he explained that when you are poor you appreciate things more or better.
this is why people loved him
8:40 "we hired a hit man" gets me every time 😂
He was simply honest and he was a hero to many people
He died bro
@@varunshahvo-tv9854 that's why the comment said "was" and not "is" or something like that.
Rip
He was so ahead of his time. People still aren't where Kurt was 20 years ago. like gay marriage, sexism. people are still ignorant today about those things. he'd hate this place if alive today.
He also hated main stream media...
naaah...just a weak ass dope addict
He was so ahead of his time. And now his dead. Maybe, just maybe, this world would be better without people who lie just to get famous?
This is one of the very few interviews that Kurt felt comfortable. That interviewer talks like she is talking to a friend. She has done a great job.
He was *gorgeous* 🫠
How can you not love Kurt? Even though he sounds so depressing and sad. I mean...there are somethings you can never explain. Unlike most "rockstars" he sounds so down to earth, and honestly...he is the ONE rockstar that I really believe when he says that he very uncomfortable with fame.
Does he sounds depressing to you in this interview?
Such a fascinating man..... talented, handsome, intelligent, articulate, funny, empathetic.. and yet always in denial of his own virtues.
his laugh is literally so adorable, i miss him so much, i wish he could’ve stayed. he was an absolute angel.
i really wish we could have seen the evolution of his music career
Always a mystical figure for me Kurt was. I was born in 93 so didn’t grow up with Nirvana until my teens when they were long gone so these videos are all I have. What an incredibly talented and beautiful person he was
A great interview all around from both the interviewer and Kurt. He was so intelligent and self aware.
The female interviewer is great love her style
I feel like Kurt really liked the first question she asked. Instead of getting right into the whole WHAT DOES YOUR MUSIC MEAN stuff right away, she simply asked a question that many interviewers don't ask. To me it seemed like he found that a refreshing, different, and somewhat nice question to ask. Anyone else agree? Just going off his body language of course.
This is the cutest interview ever
Kurt is just giggling the whole time
This man has changed my entire life as weird as it sounds. I was born in 2004, I feel so sad that I will never get to see him, meet him, be alive at the same time as him. Rest in peace we miss you so damn much it hurts.
The more interviews I watch with Kurt the more I like about him. He's a really understanding, chill and kind guy. We need Kurt in our modern day world. R.I.P Kurt, everyone misses you.
Erica Ehm deserves more respect, she's so underrated and treated Kurt and the interview pretty good.
Kurt Cobain, the only person who could say "Cause I'm a hypochondriac" In a totally calm voice.
*slowly claps*
That woman is by far the best interviewer I’ve ever seen.
Thank you for this beautiful little window into this man’s heart and mind.
Two Seattle Icons long gone, the Kingdome and Kurt. I was lucky enough to see them live at Key Arena in Seattle in 1993, that was a great time for music, I was a teenager just learning how to play guitar, I remember learning the Teen Spirit riff, I never heard anything like that before, a great time to be a teenager and a music fan. Heartbreaking that he couldn't work through his problems, life is hard for everybody, even money and success couldn't bring him happiness.
Wally Schroeder Smells like teen spirit drove me insane and I would guess after a while, it drove Kurt nuts. Imagine going from homeless, to a millionaire, then having to play that same fucking song over and over again. The man killed himself. End of story. Courtney made a load of money off it, and she knew she would. Her own Dad said the reason she was so good at playing Althea Flynt is because that was the real Courtney.
Le'Vin Moser I think most homeless people who pan handle play the exact same song everyday and the cool part is some actually make more than people getting paid 25$ an hour , so in their cases I don't think they get tired of the same song cause it feeds them , it's just that it's that fact that they are homeless and that this is how they make their living cause other wise I think they would all want a normal job making less money , cause at least they aren't looked at as homeless
I remember learning the teen spirit riff, I was about 15, I played it over and over, driving my parents nuts! Oh when I learned the solo I thought I was the shit! Hahah jumping around headbanging and shit
When ever I'm having a shitty day, I watch this. A lot of the time, Nirvana/Kurt interviews help me. It seems that in this video, Kurt is really open and comfortable with who he's talking to. It's beautiful.
Luc Power uahahahahahahahahahahahah what the fuck?!?
What? Luc Powers my name?
Luc Power Oh, excuse me!!! hahahahahaha!!! No no it's not your name...
I SWEAR, I read:
"When ever I'm having a shit, I watch this."
And I was like: What Tha Fuck???
And so, then I red, "A lot of the time, Nirvana/Kurt help me" but in my head was: help to shit. Like the face or the voice of Kurt Cobain help this guy to shit (for some reason), and finally "It's beautiful." and in my head I was figuring a big BIG SHIT... You understand now why I was laughing so so baaaaaddd... uahahahahahaahahahaha!!!!
...........tell me more of your amazing wizardry..Hahahahahaha.
Luc Power wizardry???
You watch this interview and realize what a cool laid back guy kurt was...really was just like one of us. May he rest in peace.
He’s very relatable but he’s one of a kind pretty ironic
@@ozzystar3545 he only reminds me of Jimi Hendrix tbh
He was so smart and he seemed in control of himself here. How everything spiraled out of control to the point of him ending it all is hard to believe.
This is one of the best interviews I’ve seen with him. Such clarity in his words. Very perceptive guy and talented. Too sensitive to live?
He seemed ok here. Whatever happened he made his contribution to music and will be remembered.
RIP Kurt
I never saw kurt laugh, and this was beautiful ❤️
Seemed like a genuine kind guy
two beautiful people talking. i can't get over this guy. he reminds me of my dad who i've lost, and the big brother i never had. i miss him every day, and i know that is sad, but he is so much like my dad i have this weird thing about him.
@@Alex_student101 RIP to your dad
this interviewer is so amazing.
Wow what an interview, and interviewer. She's so calm, and calming to Kurt. He recognizes her intelligence, and he wants to talk. Think of all the interviews Kurt had to sit through. He's so honest and funny here, and yet there's a sadness, a dysthymia, that seems to dominate his persona.
I love how this video showed a human male express his feelings, before males were accepted like that.
The typical male out of hollywood was normally the axl rose type, bang everything he could type male.
I love how kurt hid his true intelligence and was an empath. Something most people do not know about.
Kurt really wasn't a total Beta Male like people think. Kurt was very vocal about being the leader of Nirvana and he wanted to do everything his way. He had total creative control from the songs to the Music Videos. He definitely was not a wimp. He was strong in his ideas.
@@dextermoore278 who tf think Kurt mf cobain is a beta male if you walked a mile in his shoes you’d be shitting yourself
@@dextermoore278he was a wimp who had tantrums now and then. He was a chief over his art and that was it. He barely confronted Dave face to face about firing him. It’s difficult to have a commanding presence when you’re strung out on H weighing 130lbs lol
@@AlfimAlves KURT WASN'T A WIMP AND HE IS DEFINITELY MORE TALENTED THAN YOU WILL EVER BE!!! YOU SOUND LIKE A JEALOUS BETA MALE!! 🤣🤣🤣
Just tragic. He was much too sensitive for this world.
said like someone who doesn't understand fucking suicide.
Fuck off loser.
How do you know Jerome Hunter isn't a professional on the subject? Or are you just assuming?
To Witczashit..................... Metallica Fan?
you're right, and somehow i can relate to him cause I'm sensitive too...
This might be the best interview
3:31 Kurt Cobain got the pictures, props for the In Utero album etc. from a medical supply store at the Mall of America in 92-93 in Bloomington, MN. That's so cool. I remember that store I used to go in there myself but unfortunately it's not there anymore...
He was much too humble and real for super stardom. It consumed him. He was super talented but may have fared better behind the scenes or even as a struggling musician. No one since Kurt Cobain has ever come close to creating what he did. He was truly original. It's too bad he was so internally tortured. I am glad that the world received his gift before his departure.
So true there’s probably so many great artists like Kurt that just don’t fit in that picture like Elliot smith
100 percent in a nutshell correct.
Thank You.
Cobain was down to earth authentic to the bone. Music was his outlet for his pains. It worked for quite some time then it didn't fulfill him like it once did. He enjoyed the early days not so much the popular days at the end. It's kinda like opening the present was better than the present itself after opened.
Perfectly said 👏
@@frisbeeshawn5356 thank you!
Good interview-Two weeks ago we went to Aberdeen Wa. and saw his childhood home,, which looks like it did in the 70s,' shag carpet and ugly wood paneling. His mom is wanting 500k for it! It's worth around 60k. We went under the Young St. bridge and sat in the samll park the city made in his honor. Great day, and good way to say goodbye. Then we went to the Hendrix gravesite in Renton, Wa on the same day. Two great local musicians that never should have died so young-27 for both.
I find myself coming back to this interview a lot. Man I miss Kurt, his voice was so nice to listen to
Honestly, one of the most intelligent people i've heard talk. I wish i met him, i can't imagine what else what in that mind of his
i love this interview. he seemed really comfortable and happy
He was so authentic. The music stars of the 90s really seemed relatable to the average person.
i read perfume because of kurt, and i very much enjoyed it. one of the best, most sophisticated books i’ve read.
He was so lovely... I'd like to hug him just for a few seconds... I can't stop to watch he trying to not laughing: 10:36
Ricardo A. Medeiros he said he would like to work in a cremation Factory, what do You find lovely about it.
Ricardo A Madeira...Besides holding Kurt tight..would you like to go down on him as well?
He is intelligent and really charismatic. I like the way he interviews well. He and Robert plant I adore. My favorite rock musicians.
@@juliancardona8269 shut up
i remember waiting to see this on muchmusic back in the day.......kurt u were an example of what to aspire to as an artist
"ya know" -Kurt Cobain
So deep
This man gave an honest interview while not only being real and absolutely correct he wins my vote for the best music, the best interviews, and best records especially on my birthday in January...@ 39 😆
He was so deep ..I wish he could've stayed in this world 🥺
I love how peaceful he was and even though it was an interview he made it seem like a conversation which I’m sure made it so much easier for her and him.
Wow, it's in high quality. Thank you for posting! xD
I just wonder how their future albums would of sounded like had he lived. How he said in utero was the final chapter in the trinity of three-cord grunge music. The were evolving and burning bright, not fading away.
i still wonder about that album that he's planning with Michael Stipe. It could be balls, shame it will never happened.
The second he starts talking about finding love and how his perspective of the world has changed since the birth of his child, they change the subject. He lit up and seemed so happy talking about it and they "jokingly" change the subject. It's like people didn't want him to be happy, it wouldn't have worked for them.
I was so sad at that part. I would have loved to hear him open up a bit more after he lit up.
Kurt was obviously in love with Courtney and in love with being a father.
@@dextermoore278 but he wanted a divorce ?? at the end of his life
@@maxstrayle589 it's because it couldn't work out anymore
it is such a shame that we lost such a bright man
So well spoken and smart this is fascinating such good quality
He loved Courtney and he loved France's... Everyone has to get over the fact that there was rumours about Courtney even when he was alive, she made him happy. Rest in peace you fucking legendary beautiful person❤️
Miss you Kurt. Thank you for the poetry, music and the memories
This is cool, the city is scenic and Kurt who’s usually not a fan of interviews opens up and has a conversation with this woman and it seems genuine
This is one of the coolest interviews he ever did. This shows what a normal guy he really was and what an artist he was and how he felt about things and the industry... God bless Kurt. 1994 was a terrible year for me personally... A couple of months after Kurt did what he did supposedly... My 21 year-old brother did the very same thing... The same way. It wasn't a copycat or anyting he had his own issues he didn't leave a note... But it was a devastating year of hell on Earth for me. You never get over it you have to learn to live with it but the thing about Kurt is.. and the same way I feel about my brother is that you have to keep them in your heart... And Kurt's music and his art left us behind with all the information and legacy that we can continuously learn from.
Sending love to you and your family
@@clarkconstantine9440 God bless your brother & thank you for explaining exactly the way it was & the what really happened!
It is very interesting to see Kurt look like this. He seems like he is way past his depressive state and drug addiction. To think that he would commit suicide after numerous sources show that he seemed a lot happier, sober and more importantly, living for his daughter and coming to understand what he stood for. I find it so hard to believe that he would take his life, knowing that his daughter needed him, especially after watching so much raw footage of him closer to when he died. It just doesn't make sense.
chucksbrain Me too, Soaked In Bleach comes out in a few days I think.
JF Bruneau I've also always believed he committed suicide but it's so obvious that the case was handled poorly. I'm just keeping an open mind and looking forward to the new movie to shed some light on some other perspectives on this case. AKA the lawyer that was hired to help Courtney Love swears up and down that this case was completely mishandled and should be reopened.
JF Bruneau But that is not evidence he pulled the trigger. Just watch Soaked In Bleach. It's not propaganda .. it's facts.
JF Bruneau The Rome incident was NOT a suicide attempt. You are basically having faith in Courtney and not considering the actual facts and physical evidence. If you saw SIB , explain how the shotgun shell position was inaccurate. You can't use real logic to explain the facts they presented away. They mishandled that case. If you think they handled that case properly you are simply putting faith in a pathological liar. I've been learning about Kurt for 23 years. Everyone blows all his lyrics and his depression way out of proportion. Just like Courtney and some evil people would want you to.
JF Bruneau And I don't believe you watched it , or maybe understood anything in that film. It is very obvious Kurt was being lied about.
Kurt was truly enlightened. His whole state of mind was miles above everyone else. It's sad to see what society is like today, so superficial and materialistic.
I wouldn’t say enlightened but he saw the world for what it is he’s a genius but most geniuses are tortured souls enlightenment is the same concept as ignorance is bliss kinda
The sweetest souls seem to be the ones in the most internal pain ❤ what a nice interview.
Great interview.
He was very sincere and cool with her. I didnt know he was so worldly in his scope. Impressive. I gained more respect for kurt from listening to his mind. Rest in power kurt. Much love.!!!☆☆♡♢
What an interview!!! First time to watch it!!!! ERICA CONGRATS
