I'm just a person who happens to be a musician. I'm not a rock star. I don't want to be a rock star.

More from Kurt Cobain
"I was always a really happy kid. I was a class clown. But then my parents got divorced, and I turned into a really shy, withdrawn person."
"There's good in all of us and I think I simply love people too much, so much that it makes me feel too fucking sad."
"I'm not a very good person to be associated with."
"I was looking for something that was as genuine as the Sex Pistols and The Clash."
"I'm a product of a spoiled, materialistic, success-driven environment, but I have no capacity to live up to those expectations."
About Kurt Cobain (1967-1994)
American singer-songwriter and Nirvana frontman whose Nevermind (1991) ended the hair-metal era; died of suicide April 5, 1994. Closely associated with Eddie Vedder (Pearl Jam frontman and grunge contemporary) and Layne Staley (Alice in Chains frontman). For an intellectual contrast, see Axl Rose, Guns N' Roses frontman — Nevermind toppled GNR's Use Your Illusion II from #1 in January 1992, ending the late-80s Sunset Strip excess Cobain's grunge austerity was specifically reacting against. The cleanest single moment in late-20th-century rock — the literal generational pivot from hair-metal excess to flannel-shirt anti-rock-star authenticity.
