The life of a rock star starts out with just a few
lyrics scribbled on a piece of paper. With the added help of a
good voice, sound, hard work, and determination, someone can
become very successful in the competitive rock industry. Among
the successful, hardworking artists in this industry are Little
Richard, Elvis Presley, the Beatles, and the Sex Pistols. Kurt
Cobain also can be included with these rock legends. Kurt
Cobain's life in music is supported by great talent, hardship,
and tragedy.
Kurt Cobain was born on the 20th of Febuary 1967 in
Abertine, Washington. When Kurt was only seven years old his
mother and father divorced. Following the divorce, Kurt was
moved between various family members and friends. As this
constant moving got to be unbearable, he started to spend the

created for her. Tracy was said to be Kurt's "only true
love"("The Life").
Then Kurt met Courtney Love, who quickly became an important
part of Cobain's life. They married 24 January 1992 in Wakiki,
Hawaii. Six months later their daughter Frances Bean was born
("Biography"). Their relationship seemed to be great, but people
who where much closer to them said the relationship was
troublesome. It was obvious to them that Courtney was "playing
on his [Kurt's] sensitvity" ("The Life").
