This shows Dave's genuine love for a friend. Good for him for standing up for his personal feelings. There are things that should be kept private, and this is one. He doesn't need to talk about it if he doesn't want to and everyone should back off and just leave it be. No matter what happened between them, you can tell he still deeply cares and misses his friend. RIP Kurt. A true legend.
I always thought of kurt as a womanizer, behind the scenes, but i was surprised that he had only 3 gf's in his whole life, and his depression and life reminds me so much of mine because he is the only person in the world i could relate to, and the only person who showed that they have flaws and are not invincible as the media portrays them to be. God i miss him
Hell I remember this day like it was yesterday, and I was only 10 yrs. old. Personally I think it was all about the drugs...Nirvana was bigger than anything Kurt had imagined, and I bet he just felt as if it was easier to die than to kick his heroin habit.
dave was disconnected from kurt towards the end, he stated this in another interview,the main reason was kurt was on heroin ,your in that world or your not, there know halfway point.
he also said nirvana were heading for a split,or a break of some kind for sure.kurt had his drug life and drug friends, dave and krist were not apart of that .
@MrCol52 theres a video on youtube of Kurt rolling a joint and then smoking it with Krist, ya your right he didnt do heroin with him but he did smoke pot
He got kinda harsh towards the end. Makes me believe they had a falling out or at least parted badly before he died that he doesn't wanna talk about. Probably a lot more went down than we'll ever know. A lot of regret, anger and confusion still I'm sure. Courtney love says cobain and grohl were really disconnected in the end and there was a lot of anger there and krist says he was disconnected with Him also. It seems like he's trying to not show that ugliness that went might have went down. Kin
@Mattie1599 well yeah kurt could be a little passive aggressive bitch. i'm sure he meant well but i think he had trouble dealing with the fact that even though he knew how pointless the industry was that people would still continue in participating in it. (dave grohl)
I dont think that Dave getting a bit upset at the end has anything to do with him and Kurt being disconnected towards the end.Btw I dont think that its a secret that Kurt had kinda fallen out with a lot of people at this point, including courtney.Its simply a normal,human reaction on Daves part to kind of protect himself and his feelings when getting ask such a personal question. I think he wouldve reacted the same way even if Dave and Kurt wouldve been best freind before he died.
Is that person in the brown jacket Krist? (he has short hair) and his hand is on Lori Goldston? And is that Dave with short hair? jw. (at the end of the video, the last picture)
I've read two books on Nirvana/Kurt Cobain, and remember reading up on his stomach problems, him being bipolar, and his mom/dad's divorce and it's very sad. Like Krist said, "Kurt didn't have to do that, he could've been anything, he could've been a painter, an actor." From what I've read, Nirvana may have disbanded the same year he died. I think that may have been best rather than what he chose. It's sooo sad. RIP Kurt.
@niggaids Whether it was bi-polar or depression, Kurt definitely had been suffering from some kind of mental illness for most of his life. I've had depression myself and it destroys everything. I lost interest in all the things I liked, couldn't enjoy music, read books or watch films any more, didn't want to meet my friends etc. So I think Kurt either ignored his problems or just chose to self-medicate with drugs which was always going to make things worse.
@niggaids I've always had the theory his stomach problems were a somatoform disorder from being sexually abused as a kid. I can't prove it, of course, but he had all the symptoms of sexual abuse.
@sorenkierkegaard2008 i agree it was a somatoform disorder, but probably stemmed from childhood neglect, not sexual abuse.. from reading his journals and hearing interviews, i never got the impression he was sexually abused
@starsweet4 Absolutely, it could have been from other forms of abuse, like neglect and emotional abuse. I get the impression from several of his songs about rape ("Rape Me", "Polly", and the line "Don't rape me" in "Do, Re, Mi"), along with what he said about gender and orientation confusion in his teen years that he may have been. I could just be projecting my own experience of being sexually abused on him, though. Regardless, he never said one way or another if he was, nor anyone else.
That was about 7 years ago, I was 14, had no friends and couldn't relate to anybody...now I'm much better, have a few best friends, and feel great... but looking back at songs like "Something in the way," or "All Apologies," I go back into that deep, dark world that Kurt lived in and want to dive in and help him and say "it's gonna be alright man...be as happy as you were in Hawaii, on your wedding night." I go through stages where I love what he did musically but then hate what he did (suicide)
So depressing. Kurt's loss is a big loss to me personally. I could relate to Nirvana so much...when i was down the old saying "misery loves company," would be so true to me. I'd listen to Nirvana as company to my sadness. Just like "Frances Farmer" (song on In Utero) said "comfort in feeling sad." That's the way it is, there is a comfort in saying to yourself "your not the only one sad, this guy is too [Kurt]" But what's even more sad is I've gotten out of my depression.
