I'm probably the only one) that Nirvana is a lot like

Marilyn Manson in many ways. They completely

cult followings. Nirvana totally brought grunge to the

world, and Manson brought us Alternative Music.

Real ALTERNATIVE, as in the other choice.

just wants to stop performing, and go home and

forget about all his fame, his money, his somewhat

disturbing lyrics, and all of his touring. Heart Shaped

Box is the second most popular Nirvana Song ever

released. Although Kurt only really used 3 simple

chords in all of his songs, that would make him that

much more of a creative guy. He managed to come

up with 5 or 6 CD's full of original stuff with only 3

chords. He was an amazing guitarist, he just never

felt like going nutz and
