Bowie's version is more authentic and sincere; Kurt's performance is more an afterthought.  In fact let me recommend the entire MwStW album, which includes Bowie's most ferocious heavy metal number "The Width of a Circle," the Cream-like raveup "She Shook Me Cold," a pathos-drenched meditation on insanity "All the Madmen," and a general aura of the fantastic from light to heavy.

Most say Bowie did this in 1966, though one or two people insist it was 1965. An exact date, with month and day? EXTREMELY difficult and I just couldn't find it. :-)

Have to agree with The Doors - Jim Morrison was as like a God to me growing up! And hey, People are Strange!!

no. people only like him cause he killed himself, and i don't understand why. but i respect him and his work with nirvana cause they opened the door for other grunge/alternative rock bands.

Just a guess, but I'd say Eric Clapton - for the Yardbirds, Cream, and either Blind Faith or as a solo artist.

I would say Elvis or John Lennon

Kurt Cobain is probably my all time favorite.  I like the way he hacked out his chords/solos.\n\nAs an FYI - I worked with a lady who grew up with Tom Morello.  She said he's a great guy.

I'd have to say Green Day. But I also like Gorillaz. The bad thing about Gorillaz is that you can never see them preform live...

I love Niel, but Dylan is a better Songwriter. Check out the lyrics to "tweeter and the monkey man" (a Wilbuys take) but a Dylan song. The best!

No to the buddhist concept of Nirvana.\n\nBy the way, I believe that there was a grunge band named Nirvana lead by the late Kurt Cobain.\n\nP/S: If Nirvana was true, you have nothing to worry, coz it just need your good deeds. So believing in it or not dosent make any difference. Also, I dont need a religion to tell me how to do good but I need a religion to tell me how to get rid of my sins!\n\nRegards

I would rather meet Mike Jones too. I do like Snoop Dog's music, but I dont really like him himself. Mike Jones has some hot beats, lyrics, and it seems like he ha a cool personality too.

Kurt was such a force in the band that to most people he literally was Nirvana.  In a way, it may have contributed to his suicide.  I'm sure he wasn't prepared for the intensity of interest in the band, the music, and him.  \n\nKurt's death at the height of the band's popularity further intensified people's interest in him.  I think the whole thing was totally ill-suited for him.  One day Kurt and Krist Novolesic were just a couple of kids in a poor logging town in Washington, and then they, along with Dave Grohl, became this musical phenomenon in a few years' time.
