totally with you on that. Sometimes it feels like he could have been your friend who accidentally went famous, or sth...

[michellek]

Accidently?! He planned it, that motherfucker..*starts mumbling rant*

[Frances]

hey! watch the language! I meant that he still seems real and normal, unlike other celebrities :P

[michellek]

Yea..i know what you meant. it's just, i hate that he planned his rock star thing. i mean, it gets me cranky. Sometimes, i even think he planned to commit suicide, so that he would leave a bigger impact. or that he planned to get his journals seen.

[Frances]

no, I can't beloeve that. I mean, if you get famous and you keep a diary of some sort, you do want it to be read, you ndo want to be known for the real you, even if you're just a regular person. And I don't think he expected that degree of fame, he wanted to be well-known, but I think he was cought by surprise by the whole phenomenon that he started...

[michellek]

I think that he wanted to be famous, but he didn't know what sort of baggage came with fame.

[Frances]

I still believe that he would have been ok with fame and with its baggage and all if only he had had love, real love.

Courntey didn't take him away. She had Kurt's daughter and would've wanted Kurt to be there.

I think that Kurt's a legend. I see him as being a very strong person to make it through his childhood, with what happened to him. And he came out the other side as a very creative, intelligent, inspiring young man. He's a musical genius. Sad he's not still playing.

I agree with one of michellek's quotes that maybe he did want to be famous, I mean for recognition of his troubled childhood, but he didn't want all the baggage that comes with fame.
