so its kurt cobain's would be birthday today. Probably one of the most understood song writers of the time. His songs at first glance may of just sounded gibbrtish, but there was always an underlining message to his songs.

Happy Birthday Kurt Donald Cobain, we still think about you and miss you.

God bless you Kurt. I like clever gibberish.

All too true. Even if you go back to things like Pen Chap Chew and If You Must - early stuff tossed off when they had some spare time in the studio during their first main recording sesion - there's just so much going on there..World of music would have been much poorer without them. What's your top Nirvana song Hayley - and indeed anyone else in this thread who ants to recognise the great one?

i love them all, but about a girl is my favourite

Happy birthday Kurt.

Although an above-par guitarist, I thought he was an over-rated musician, with mediocre lyrical skills.

well, you are entilted to your own oppinion even though its totally inaccurate. quite alot of the foo fighters songs were actually written by nirvana or atleast started by them. They haen't been many lyrasist over the years who can make a song at first sound gibberish but at closer inspection is actually quite deep and meaningful, which makes kurt a great lyrasist.

will have to concur with hayley on this one....


i have the same middle name as kurt..mwahaha

By and large, a stunning lyricist! In Utero for example. On here we've got him comparing his plight to that of 30s Seattle actresses, his marriage being a 'magnet tar pit trap', finally being able to openly convey his frustration at his upbring in Serve The Servants. There's some heavy stuff there, brilliantly conveyed

Fact: Alone + Easy Target and Exhausted from the the first Foo Fighters album was worked on 'as' Nirvana in late 93. This Is A Call had been knocking around from early 91, just after Grohl joined..

what standing alone said, he is a genious it seems. to the doubter dude, sorry but you just got pimped..LOL
