She said: ” don’t really like Nirvana that much [grins]. Sorry, promotional people, Universal. I’m more into Mercury Rev, Oasis, Brian Jonestown Massacre [laughs]. The grunge scene is not what I’m interested in. But “Territorial Pissings” [on Nevermind] is a f**king great song. And “Dumb” [on In Utero] – I cry every time I hear that song. It’s a stripped-down version of Kurt’s perception of himself – of himself on drugs, off drugs, feeling inadequate to be titled the voice of a generation.”
While Frances could not spend a lot of time with Kurt, she still cherishes the songs he has left behind.
Kurt Cobain’s marriage to Courtney Love
As per Far Out Magazine, Kurt and Courtney started dating in 1991. After dating for a year, the pair got married in 1992. This was also the time when Courtney found out that she was pregnant with their first child.
Just a c couple of months after their marriage, Frances was born. Their relationship had been through ups and downs for a long time and their fans had been aware of it.
Since the two had a public romance, it was hard to keep anything under the blanket. The two stayed married until Kurt died in 1994.

Kurt Cobain’s battle with addiction
Kurt and Courtney had been vocal about their drug use. In fact, many of Kurt’s songs also described the same. In 1993, when the singer was preparing for his New York concert, he overdosed on heroin. This was not the first time it had happened.
Luckily, Courtney was quick and revived him herself with naloxone. Again, in 1994, when Kurt was in Rome, he overdosed on a combination of Rohypnol and champagne.
While Kurt later said that it was a mistake, Courtney had stated that it might have been his first attempt at suicide. In April 1994, Kurt committed suicide and his body was found three days later.
