Life and Death of Kurt Cobain (Nirvana) - From 1 to 27 Years Old

- Kurt Cobain, in full Kurt Donald Cobain, (born February 20, 1967, Aberdeen, Washington, U.S.-died April 5, 1994, Seattle, Washington), American rock musician who rose to fame as the lead singer, guitarist, and primary songwriter for the seminal grunge band Nirvana. Cobain had a generally happy childhood until his parents divorced when he was nine years old. After that event, he was frequently troubled and angry, and his emotional pain became a subject of, and catalyst for, much of his later music. As a teenager, he moved between various relatives’ houses, stayed with friends’ parents, and occasionally slept under bridges while he began to use drugs and take part in petty vandalism as forms of teenage rebellion. Cobain was musically inclined from an early age, and in the mid-1980s he began to play with members of the local “sludge rock” band the Melvins (who would themselves go on to earn a measure of national fame in the 1990s). In 1985 he created a homemade tape of some songs with the drummer of the Melvins that later caught the attention of local bassist Krist Novoselic. Cobain and Novoselic formed Nirvana in 1987 and thereafter recruited a series of drummers to record demo tapes with them and play small shows throughout the Northwest.
One of the group’s demo tapes found its way to Jonathan Poneman of the Seattle independent record label Sub Pop, which signed the band to produce its first single, “Love Buzz,” in 1988 and its first album, Bleach, in 1989. The album had a unique (and soon-to-be signature) sound that mixed the rawness of punk rock with pop hooks, and the group soon became a target of major record labels. With new drummer Dave Grohl (who joined the band in 1990) Nirvana released its major-label debut, Nevermind (1991), which featured the hit single “Smells like Teen Spirit”; it became the first alternative-rock album to achieve widespread popularity with a mainstream audience. Nevermind catapulted Nirvana to worldwide fame, and Cobain came to be hailed as the voice of his generation, a title that he was never comfortable with.
In 1992 Cobain married Courtney Love, then the leader of the band Hole, and the couple had a daughter that same year. The following year Nirvana released its final studio album, In Utero, in which Cobain railed against his fame. Cobain had long suffered from depression and chronic stomach pain. He treated his issues with drugs: Cobain was a frequent user of heroin in the years after Nirvana’s breakthrough, and he took a variety of painkillers in an attempt to numb his constant stomach agony. In March 1994 he was hospitalized in Rome after overdosing and slipping into a coma in what was later characterized as a failed suicide attempt. One month later he snuck out of a Los Angeles-area drug treatment centre and returned to his Seattle home, where he shot and killed himself.
Cobain’s death marked, in many ways, the end of the brief grunge movement and was a signature event for many music fans of Generation X. He remained an icon of the era after his death and was the subject of a number of posthumous works, including the book Heavier than Heaven: A Biography of Kurt Cobain (2001) by Charles R. Cross and the documentaries Kurt & Courtney (1998) and Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck (2015).

''I'm so ugly, but that's ok 'cause so are you'' -Kurt Cobain in Lithium. Rest in Peace. Legend.
Lithium was a great a** song
He was far from it..
He maintained his good looks throught his child and adult years unlike poor culkin.
She was so handsome
you can literally see and feel the happiness fading in his eyes as the years went on
From 8 years it began to fade
Yeah man it fucking fades
Terra Realm wow no, you do not EVER compare peoples experiences. What’s happened to you has NOTHING to do with how YOU react to it. No one needs a reason to be depressed it’s not something we control, so never degrade someone for feeling something because you can’t tell anyone how THEY are supposed to feel.
@Terra Realm He went through divorce, he was homeless, he had chronic depression, he had chronic Bronchitis, he had an undiagnosed stomach problem. He went through a lot. Also dont compare people experiences with another person
Yeah😔
Its so crazy to see this child with a huge smile, cheerful , everything seems great... just growing up with potential of at very least a normal life. And then its just a tragedy . Food for thought .
I know😭😭😭😭
That’s what happens when you join the luciferian drug addicts child molesting Hollywood
Life is fucked up, people get and feel messed up... shit happens.
He was killed i belive as well he had overdosed
Every child is like that at first
Born with ADS, wrong medication, wrong parents, left behind by everyone as a teen, illness, drugs...quite a sad story and despite everything, his music will last for ever
What's ADS?
He need all those bad things for his music

1:49 This is when Kurt cobain started being Kurt cobain
Bruh. 😂.
An early and quick learner he was.
Oh no! I watched it 3 times before I caught that finger. Then the mom (?) putting her hands around his neck pretending to strangle him...not ok even just joking. My kids are no angels but I could never imagine them doing that so young. As a parent I wouldn't be just filming it and laughing either.
It's nice that his parents took so many home videos.
He did soo much in his short life we all miss him everyday
@@Rowanbows he killed himself due to the pressure on his family and himself you dickehead. Kurt was a great man. Who made THE BEST music in the world.
Very true...
I think he doesn‘t suicided
I think Courtney Love killed him
@@daviddagnall5931 ehh.. best music? no
It's hurts me that this video is playing a bad cover
Sanic Sped SAME
What do you mean? I thoroughly enjoyed the covers on this vid. Never heard em before it sounds a tad German it’s groovy.
@@harrisonbovington729 the lyrics bro
SAMEE
Like u guys could do better
It hit kinda hard how at the age of 12 and after there were less and less pictures. It just kinda shows how your parents excitement and love dies down, and it gets to the point where you’re just kinda there, living with them.
I never really thought about it that way before…now I’m rethinking my whole life
When he was 17:
Kurt: Wants to print sticks
Kurt: IT DOESNT WORK
Kurt: [*Kills it*]
My parents named me Kurt thanks to him 🤗
Why
@@mr.guitar8572 let me guess you're Gen Z, and your parents are Gen X, who were major Nirvana fans in their youths
you lucky bastard lol
Sadly you change it becomes Captain
Whait wut
I'm not crying. You are crying.

Such a beautiful soul cut short. He seems like one of the most genuine and caring people in interviews. Rest Easy.
Guys dont be sad that he is gone be glad it existed.
GS F “it”
Absolutely... "it" couldn't sing for shlt ! 🤮

@@napicoyote2348 don't be a dickhead.
I can sing this song better.
He gave people the middle finger since he was 4 wtf lol
Lol saw that too
Saw that tooo :D
My lil brother is 3😂. We are a big family and he is the last one though..
wut
still love kurt
Wacth again somebody teach him to do that..
I hate this everyone around him treated him like shit because they were jealous and knew he was special
LITTLE HORN that what the world does to real legends
Yeah very special 🌟
i dont think that was the case but you got the spirit and thats all that counts
Kurt Cobain ...you were a unique and talented human soul. I'm so sad that we couldn't watch you morph into an even more unique and seasoned musician and composer. I guess that sounds selfish doesn't it??
Whatever it was that made you believe that your only way out was that... then I'm going to respect that and only dream of what could have been.... xoxo
Yeah
Kurt: **Sticks out tongue**
His mom: *_no_*
After 8 years old he doesn't smile.
when he's 24 he smiles
I don't either
@@harmen4844 I think he smile but smile with sad look inside his eyes
@@gxzaaable that's true
I noticed the same. Grief, confusion and some other seriousness began to live in his face instead of the child's natural joy.
I'm crying!!!! I wish Kurt was still alive
Why do people do this to themselves? Like, self destruct?
Emma Battista same here with me😢
Give Thanks And Praise To The Father - Yes Him A De Heaven An De Earth Rightful Rula (?)
Me too
Everybody wish it
The smiles that faded through the years...he had the most beautiful, expressive windows to the soul.
yes.
When he’s 27 he looks so rough from the heroin, poor guy. I feel bad for him, he wasn’t ready for the fame
It all was because of Courtney, not popularity
@o o o o that wasn't a suicide letter, it was quiting music letter. It was Courtney, he made that very clean in many songs like You Know You're Right
@o o o o yeah he said "fame will kill me" he wasn't must be so popularity, it was be grunge and he said "this isn't grunge, grunge is a word for the commerciants, this is just the music of nirvana" he had gone commercial and he hated this
@o o o o paper chromatographic proved that Kurt's "suicide letter" was written in two different time periods by two different handwriting. Also, the Seattle Police Department won't release the pictures taken during the investigation, which is kinda weird because according to law they have to. Courtney Killed him, its very clear.
@@GoodTimesWithHO the note started off as a letter to fans about quiting the band/music scene. He then resumed the letter at a later date turning it into a suicide note.
Seeing him when he was young makes me smile.
Seeing him when he was a teen makes me smile.
Seeing him in his 20s makes me smile.
Seeing him... In heaven makes me smile.
Can we talk abt how hot this man was at 19🥵
Ik, I'm actually screaming
There a millions of men just as good looking. Put your best outfit on and they might take an interest in you if your lucky.
And at 21 and 22...😍
Can we talk about how awful this smells like teen spirit cover is??
dang, why wasn’t I alive when Kurt was 19
Can you not play the worst smells like teen spirit cover ever?
Ikr
kurt hated that song...
@@sofianielsen4949 he didnt hate the song he hated the attention it got
'Moo-lay-doe" Ugh.
I like original song
He gets less and less of a smile in every picture
0:24
In his songs when you read the lyrics, they’re all about death he also said in an interview that he was interested in life, death and rebirth. But in my opinion, he was really interested in death, (obviously).
I really hate this smells like teen spirit cover
Rosie Nigri me too
It’s booty
Me too
It's horrible
Sounds very Birdy similar....
He only lived for 27 years.... He's such a Talented and blessed Angel... I just read his biography and he's like professional in everything but he ended his life too young.
@Gelenn eh?... ok
@Gelenn he wasn't murdered. That movie of course makes you think that. And I use to think his pig wife had him killed but truth is.. He just didn't want to be a rockstar anymore. He hated everything that came with it. He just wanted to be left alone to get high and not be bothered and not be pulled in every direction. When they forced that intervention that was it. He knew there was only one way out. And he took it. From the gun he got Dylan Carlson to buy a month before he shot himself.
Courtney hired a assassin to kill kurt :(
He was NOT murdered. A lot of obsessed fans are Just naive. They don't wanna believe that he would kill himself.
The sad truth is kurt killed himself, ive followed this for around 15 years and as sad as it is the truth hurts kurt wanted to be left alone and he new that it wouldnt happen so he killed himself. such a shame ..
rest in peace my little sun.
i will always miss you.

To day the 5. April 2019. It is 25 years ago since Kurt Cobain die, Much to young, in a age of only 27years old.
He, his music, the Band,will Always been apart of my younger days...!!!
🙏🙏🎸🎙🎶🎵
Sorry butttttt *died
at least he is forever young,I couldn‘t stand seeing him bald,fat and old,I guess!
HISairness so you’re glad he died young because you don’t wanna see him bald? Are you actually joking?
Karina Johnson Skogemann i was not even Born yet
He’d be 52 years old
The first cover was fine but the second one made me wanna do the ‘Kurt Cobain’
lmao same
:/
What does doing the Kurt Cobain mean?
@Aytch and Gigi yeah of course
@@Cy93 it’s a dance move Kurt did
Lesson: be careful who you get married to.
Interesting how Courtney kicked her addiction to heroin before meeting Kurt. So who's worse?
@Aytch and Gigi Courtney may very well be lying. However, I still think it's pathetic to self medicate with heroin for a stomach condition. He really should have been smarter about his health and although he's a perfect musician, the drugs that he chose were self destructive by his own volition
@Aytch and Gigi I spent 10 years recovering from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome in my 20s. I felt like killing myself everyday but I put in effort to solve my health problems without resorting to drugs and suicide. Next.
Jeli Jones ok yea ur right don’t marry a drug addict
@Aytch and Gigi well,if you maintain no-one uses it to party on,then you DONT know shit about heroin.Everyone that rattles on about it uses the "numbs the pain" meme to excuse their use of it-fucking bullshit-of course it has long claws and captures almost everybody;but a lot of the users begin by enjoying its effects...only a really lengthy user can talk confidently about this phenomenon;and if you arent-you just sound like a wanker.
That smells like teen spirit’s cover is awful

Asfuck
I love KURT COBAIN
Same
Ja też ❤️
I love Kurt i love Nirvana
Omg Polska xDD
Who doesnt
Who chose this music play the real song that’s horrible
Why so many singers die at 27 years old
Slender Man, jimi Hendrix died 27 years old (best guitar ever)
My personal opinion is because that is the average age we start to understand things more clearly, think about the future more and understand ourselves more. I was about 27-28 when I began to understand things more clearly and gained some perspective, the switch from being over confident, arrogant and thinking I knew everything to realising I was nothing, a small cog in an endless wheel happened overnight. I have noticed this same change in many males mostly but this is my own personal opinion.
At the age of 28/29 we all will have our first Saturn return...its a life changing time for many of us...some chose to leave 💜
It’s a curse
Search for club 27 on the internet
He was a genius at age 2. Anyone who hasn't watch it yet. Watch Montage of heck !!!
I believe u.
i can't find where to watch it
@@fuego1336 I have the DVD. CZcams doesn't have just the whole movie it has a bunch of clips. You might want to check Netflix if you have access to it. You have to watch it tho. Sheds light on how really f'd up his childhood was and towards the end you see how Courtney bullied him. Truly amazing
@@chrishamre9408 man i tried, it's on Netflix but not in italy
@@fuego1336 Damn man that sucks. I don't know where else except for the DVD. Sorry bud good luck finding it tho. Definitely worth it
Watching this makes me want to hug my sons.
Yep going into the next room as we speak! Going to read him a story, a kiss and off to dreamland we go.
This video broke my heart. Thank you
This is so sad, God rest his soul. He seemed like a happy beautiful kid. Just had to many internal battles 😥 we all can relate to that.
He looked pretty rough in that year 27 picture
I feel like he would have eventually ended up going the Layne Staley route had he not ended himself. I think he would have ended up with the abscesses and the missing teeth and a general crackhead/junkie aesthetic
The soul is gone from the eyes in that pic dope or not,check Jimi Hendrix’s last photos same thing cause of death makes no difference these were tortured souls.A lot of people have talent and creativity but for some they go to the deepest part of them to extract it and when the pressure is on by the vultures for more they loose the freedom of creativity and then themselves
Who's the kid in the picture and why is Kurt holding a pistol to his head
@@Iwannagethighrightno a fan in France one of the last photos
Who else was left in tears while watching this 😭
6:52 his face... just makes me cry
If we can see the soul from people's eyes, we would cry when seeing kurt's smile
Lmaoo Cobain already learned how to annoy people at 4. 😂😂😂
Yeah he was certainly a bratty kid at that age. Makes my kids look like angels! Definitely picked it up from his parents being so young.
Miss you Kurt Cobain
Little Kurt is so happy than me. Oh, Kurt!:(
Peasce🤗🌹🎭
Bro... He was hella cute.
6:57 is anyone not going to question the gun he’s pointing to his friends head ?
That's only toy
haelmy 'Z' : Still it’s kind of spooky to see him pointing a gun to his friends head while realizing he killed himself with a shot to the head
probably a photo for a fan!
@@joaquingonzalez5006 he didnt killed him self
he stops smiling at 10 yrs old. he maybe very famous but i dont feel happiness in his aura.
He said that: I had a really good childhood until I was 9, then a classic case of divorce came up
Really affected instead of came up* sorry
Something happened from age 7 to 8 if you look. But difference in the way he was.
Yes
Ive reconised this aswell. Poor kid...he never managed to make that sad little boy happy again
1:49 you see from first he is rockstar
Yeah man
thank you a lot for posting this
I'm glad it was a respectful tribute. Thank you for showing us the happy stages of his short life. My daughter died on her 27th birthday in 2017. It doesn't get easier with time, she left a son who is 8 years old now.
Thank you for being here Kurt I always love you...
Such a happy kid in pic,s but after 8 years old you can see the smiles get less and lesser.What a brilliant music artist and his music will always live on, R.I.P KURT
i like watching kurt related videos at night till it’s morning and feeling kinda sad and nostalgic, truly a masochist
Thanks for sharing this.
It hurts my soul that this video exists.
R.I.P Kurt Cobain.I hope you are now happy and free of the demons, you will always be badly missed.
He was such a talented young man. He voice will live on forever 🌹 Good Too Soon. R.I.P. Kurt🙏🏽🕊
R.I.p Kurt Cobain😢
You know when he died im crying like my true elder brother
Forever in our heart
What a pretty boy
He was so happy when he was kid as he grow older he stared feeling depressed you can clearly see
This video is ALMOST perfect you ruined it when you decided to let this girl sing
Is about Kurt Cubain it should have just the piano playing in background
I didn't see his best friend Dylan Carlson. I wander who his is true friend or friends. I would have pointed him to Jesus and I would have been a good friend to him
Such a Tragedy especially how he left a family behind GREAT VIDEO!..
A beautiful video of a great artist and torture soul , I love Kurt he was a great artist it is so sad he ended his life so young.
I have no words .. The little boy videos are really touching ... :'(
RIP I can't believe he' s gone .
i watch the video for 5 for times and cry when i watch it
i can found somebody like me who love kurt from his heart
6:48 he looks kind of happy in this
„it's better to burn out, than to fade away"
Rest in piece.. 🖤🎸
idk why i feel the need to consistently watch this & make myself cry. we miss & love you kurt ): ❤️
Love the covers!
Today it's his death anniversary... we love you Kurt, keep always an eye on us, on a world where you left your songs, your voice, your passion and your soul.👑

Appreciated all the good music that helped combat emotional times!
Bellissimo video
Seeing him so happy playing with 3 years old is a blessing for all of us❤
6:57 Kurt depressed 😢
Yeah he wasnt looking to good...
@Lucy Fur666 Depression is a double edged sword.From the pain comes wisdom,creativity and self growth,while suffering and being eaten alive from the inside out. RIP Kurt
Lucy Fur666 damn chill
@Lucy Fur666 alright dude chill out, we all love him. He was a good looking dude, but he looked rly fucked up there and that's okay. Everyone looks more and less fucked up sometimes. We are humans, We aren't perfect.
:(
i literally cried thx
Thanks for being born, kurt. Your songs are amazing. You were deserved to live.

And it's dain egous
The black and white photo @ 1:04.
What a joy! Big smile and a happy boy that one day all fell apart.
Its still so sad what happend. So much talent, the voice of my generation. I can remember that the Rotterdam show was canceled, but we all hoped it took place real soon. It was a week after my 16 birthday and I was watching the news before I went to bed just to hear Kurt died. It was like a friend, a relative that died. Rip Kurt, I and so many still love you and your music. tnx buddy x.
He went from such a very happy child to a sad child around age 9. I googled when his parents got divorced, and sure enough, it happened when the happiness faded. Poor kid. He was never the same.
Parabéns pelo vídeo ❤️
Belíssima homenagem .
Lindinho qdo criança....parecia bem feliz.....mas foi crescendo e se perdeu infelizmente com as drogas....
Tinha mto a oferecer....outros foram tbm ....como CHRIS CORNELL... CHESTER...e mtos outros foram mto cedo .....
Mas deixaram um grande legado....isso ninguém jamais vai tirar deles e nem de nós ❤️
Descansem em paz ❤️❤️

All Apologize..!!!.. Non è smell like teen spirit
I was 14 when Nirvana was big. I was very sad when he killed himself. Pls kids, stay away from drugs. The sensitive destroy themselfs with it. It is such a gift to be sensitive in a world of numb people. But , you need ti learn to use this tool for yourself. Never do it with drugs. Even weed does harm you, specially your brain when its still growing. Better go for a video game, when you want dive into another world, or get into outdoor adventures. Just always express to your parents and loved ones when you are in need of a hug, or an ear that listens to you. And always realise, when these intense phases of first love loss, or difficoulties in the school or jobs become heavy, there are so many people that love you. Never take the exit Kurt took. Life is precious. And Iam sure, hes hurt his child and many people that loved him very much. May god rest his soul. If he only would have accepted help
Nurul Waheeda I found it awesome how yk who Kurt Cobain is at the age of 9
Smells like kiddo spirit
