All bands are overrated by their most passionate fans. Beautiful AND talented people in the music industry are overrated all the time considering that ugly and talented people aren't as popular. Dead artists' creations are also easily overrated due to the limited production possibilities among other things.
But just because KURT COBAIN may be an artist who is so easy to overrate doesn't mean that he wasn't an EXTREMELY good songwriter, musician and artist. The fact that he died under such tragic circumstances (whatever the reason was) naturally lead to publicity which meant that even more people got to know of Nirvana's existence but publicity alone creates no new fans. The music actually has to be good for people to listen to it. People who have NOT listened to Kurt's music have no right or possibility to know exactly WHY others do listen to Nirvana but to assume it's because of the "coolness-factor", which many seem to do, is really naive. Nirvana has not been "cool" for a very long time because according to mainstream-belief mainstream-music cannot possibly be neither cool nor good. And I'd say that Nirvana, despite its non-mainstream genre and image, can be classified as quite a mainstream-band (thinking of numbers, hits, sold albums etc). Only insecure, unopinionated, dumb people listen to music to achieve some certain kind of status.
The reasons for loving or hating Kurt himself (or even worse: Courtney Love) on the other hand, seem much more superficial and badly argued than those for loving the music and are often based only on the image of him/her created by the media.
Hey! Wait!
I've got a new complaint:
Let those who have heard only "Smells like teen spirit" and "Come as you are" love them if they want to. Why should it bother people, it's that person who is missing out on the best music that the 90's had to offer, and that's punishment enough.
2 Kurt Cobain: Your music will live forever. I love it. I love it.

If people say theres only one wise man he was it.
Smells like teen spirit is the single handily the greatest song in the world listen to it urself and buy the box set i did

Kurt Cobain completely revolutionized Grunge with his inspirational music style and hit singles such as "Smells like Teen Spirit", "Lithium", and "Come as you are". Alongside Krist Novoselic (bassist) and Dave Grohl (drummer), he formed the band Nirvana. You will Never see or hear of any band like Nirvana. They were one of a kind. Kurt Cobain was one of a kind. Some even consider him to be God.
To this day he lives on in his eternal legacy as one of history's greatest singers/songwriters.
R.I.P. Kurt Cobain
1967-1994
You will live on in our hearts and minds forever
Guy 1: Dude, Nirvana is on tour and their coming here tonight! I have an extra ticket to their concert and your coming with me.

the greatest singer/songwriter the world has ever seen. born in poverty and raised by terrible parents, he was very anguished. he formed the band nirvana adn let out his frustration through brilliant lyrics. he met and later married courtney love, which would ultimitly prove to be a horrible choice. kurt was murdered on april 5, 1994 by that skank courtney
Kurt Cobain is god
Rest in Peace

one of the greatest musicians of all time, whos life was cut WAY too short because of his wife Courtney Love, who was mad because he was divorcing her and taking her out of his will. She should have been the one to die, shes worthless anyways.
