4. He tried many times to get off heroin, he was never successful.
5. Heroin addiction + his dread of being famous/in the public eye + stomach pain basically drove him off the deep end.

Those of you arguing opinions: keep going, you'll get real far in your arguments.

1) if he had a illness/disease then he should have found a better doctor. heck millions have such crap and NEVER turn to heroin.
2) no he turned to heroin because he was weak. he didn't have the courage to continue living life as "bad" as he had it.
3) yes heroin is bad.
4) again who cares? he tried but failed. he should have never started in the first place.
5) ahh poor rich/famous person hates it! fricken druggy.


he is a loser. he had everything many aspire to but will never achieve. He was not strong enough to handle it and turned to drugs and offed himself. thats what makes him a loser.

blaming it on a stomach illness is just a out and a crappy one at that.




on a slightly different subject. did Courtney love ever win ownership over his music? or what happened?

Well, his music had an impact on me. Being in Seattle at this time was great, the music scene was busting at the seams. Loved the OK Hotel.

RIP

the music may have "touched a lot of people" and sort of changed the direction popular music was heading....
but those people who go to the park every day to mourn....wow...those people have no lives

Why do they have no lives? Maybe Nirvana touched them in a way you couldn't imagine. Are you religious? Do you pray? If so, why? At least Nirvana was a physical manifestation that may have touched people on another level instead of some invisible god.

*disclaimer* In no am I saying Nirvana touched me deeply, but I do respect them very much.

It must be easy to calculate someone elses weaknesses 10 years after the fact and then call said person a loser based on a 10 year later evalution.

naa i figured that out 10 years ago when he blew his brains out. He was hooked on drugs then killed himself that makes him a loser. It does not matter who he was. he was still a loser.

It's easy to judge people you've never even known from the comfort of your chair, isn't it?

sure. people that do heroine and commit suicide are losers. It does not matter that the guy was a star or whatever. he couldn't handle life and turned to drugs. when they weren't enough he blew his brains out.

I agree. I don't know about going there every day, but it's definitely a place that I want to go to a some point in my life, just to pay my respects to his spirit. sorta like all the people who go to visit Jim Morrison's grave.

You can hit Bruce Lee's grave as well if you make it up here.

He's a loser because he offed himself. His music was influential and creative.

going to have to agree with red on this one, granted i am not a fan of his music, but if you truly are someone that enjoys and understands music you can not sit there and say that nirvanas music wasen't influentual. imho, they were one of the more influentual rock bands of the 90's.

dang, i didn't think it was 10 years already...

Well don't feel bad, I'm right there myself.

To this day if I think about it I get sad :-(

But on the flip side, I still to this day can be put into an instant good mood if a Nirvana song comes on the radio.

You're my hero!! He was a dumbass and I count the day that he offed himself as one of the better days in my life.

Ponder this, for a no talent junky ass Motherfscker he was able to achieve success and wealth that you and I only could dream of.

Yeah, but so did Dave Matthews, so what does that really mean?

One could argue that he singlehandedly almost ended rock&roll as a viable musical genre. Piss on grunge, a useless and depressing form of music.

Exactly. I mean, the same rehashed hair metal that was so prevalent at the time was never going to get old. While we're at it, let's try to figure out what we can pin on Jimi.

The same "rehashed hair metal" was not the totality of rock&roll, not by a long shot. However, grunge did pretty much kill off album rock as a radio format.

It did? How's that?

Also, of course hair metal wasn't all there was. But who's place did Nirvana, and grunge in general, take? A fresh sound is never bad for music. Elvis wasn't bad for music. Neither was Hendrix, neither was Nirvana, neither was Floyd, neither were any of the other bands I'm forgetting to mention.

It's because I liked the stuff that came before grunge a LOT better than grunge itself. You know I'm right... ;)

Nirvana, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains. Nuff said ;) That being said, Nirvana is the weakest of the bunch imo. They do get all the credit, though. Rightly so to some extent. *shrugs*

As far as the stuff before grunge being better... There's more good music pre-grunge, but not necessarily better quality music. Post-grunge era is where rock really died. Rock can only exist on Blink 182 and Offspring for so long. Then we got the fvcking nu-metal whiners. *sigh* :(

Listen to European metal instead :)

There is little else worth listening to...

LOL, if that constitutes one ot the better days of your life maybe you should consider checking out;)

I like their "Nevermind" album. I don't care about deep lyrics, as long as the song is cool or catchy, which most of the songs on that album were.

um, layne staley died 2 years ago yesterday and nobody seems to give a shti about that? alice in chains was infinitely more talented in every way than nirvana.
