1:50 2) Is it hard write new material in a short timeframe after having had your entire life to the write the material for your first two albums?

  1. Fucking toxic, stupid and disgusting hypocrite, not even worth listening to 1 word coming from his mouth.
    He was supposed to have anti-mainstream and anti-commercial attitude but Nirvana's albums were released in Geffen and SubPop, one of the biggest labels in the US. Since he was so anti-mainstream, why did he take part of interviews? Fucking idiot.
    Nirvana is the most overrated shit of the nineties, horrible cheerless music. Glad it was destroyed by Oasis, Blur and other britpop bands. It's like emo of the nineties.

  2. So sad He was so beautiful talented and humble….He was lonely but found a real winner ..she was not earthy and wanted all his money and got it…he did not spend to her liking so…Now the tbing can afford to get her hidious face fixed everyday
