Grunge & Nirvana were not about being happy so how is that entertainment?



In your opinion, music is supposed to be fun and anything other than fun is a negative deviation.

To me, music is a form of expression, and includes any and all emotions the musician wants to convey. Just like any form of art and entertainment. Some of the greatest movies and paintings of all time are also the darkest and most depressing. By your standards, that sort of thing isn't entertaining, but that's only because you've got a narrower definition than pretty much everybody else in that regard.

I personally think Nirvana's music is extremely entertaining. I also don't get angry or depressed while listening to it, so maybe I'm just weird or something.


I said music is entertainment & entertain means to make happy!
Now how can miserable music be happy?
Fun & happy are mutually exclusive!

Music & entertainment should be a distraction from the ills of life not wallow in it so we should "relate" to it!
I look at most of these kids today who still wear their Kurt Cobain t-shirts or their Nirvana sweatshirts etc & they all look so moody & start saying shit like "Kurt understood what we are going through!" & stuff like that.
Bullshit,Kurt was just miserable plain & simple & let out all his inner depresion thru his music,he didnt care if it meant it would bring anyone else down to his level,just like he didnt care that by comitting suicide he was leaving behind a wife (ok so she was a bitch from hell),a very young child & any other family members.
All Kurt Cobain cared about was Kurt Cobain!

Music is a huge affecting factor on the youth,we currently have all these kids going round thinking its cool to be ganstas & hanging in gangs because thats what Eminem or NWO tells them its cool in their lyrics.
Grunge was expecially affecting for making a disenfranchised generation who think that nothing any good will come in this world.

I couldnt give two shits that Cobain killed himself,it was probably the best thing he ever did!

Snarf is shit. His death will be rejoiced!
