Audio/Video recording by Starman.

The video to accompany this song has been taken from clips of the film 'Last Days'. In some ways I feel the song lyrics and their meanings work quite well - as the video depicts the man through the effects of despair, depression and isolation - which ultimately lead to their own tragedy. Curt & Johnny (another two sadly missed icons)......

The video effect is best watched using the 'High Quality' option if your bandwidth allows.

During the last years of his life, Cobain struggled with drug addiction and the media pressures surrounding him and his wife, Courtney Love. On April 8, 1994, Cobain was found dead in his home in Seattle, the victim of what was officially ruled a self-inflicted shotgun wound to the head. In ensuing years, the circumstances of his death became a topic of fascination and debate. He was 27.

In 1997, Cash was diagnosed with the neurodegenerative disease Shy-Drager syndrome. The diagnosis was later altered to autonomic neuropathy associated with diabetes. This illness forced Cash to curtail his touring. He was hospitalized in 1998 with severe pneumonia, which damaged his lungs. Johnny Cash died less than four months after his wife, on September 12, 2003, while hospitalized at Baptist Hospital in Nashville, Tennessee. He was interred next to his wife in Hendersonville Memory Gardens near his home in Hendersonville, Tennessee. He was 71.

Vocally its a bit rough in places - Jesus I need a pop filter!!!

SIDE NOTE: Can anyone help me by recommending any VST/DX plugins for the following:

De'esser
Reverb (preferably one that specialises in vocal presets)

Thanks in advance for taking time out to listen to me.
