Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love’s daughter Frances Bean Cobain has released a teaser of a haunting new song where she touches on themes of loss and suicide.
She posted lyrics and a description of her voice in the song:
“No one told me
How I should love myself
Damn near killed me
Damn near killed myself
I’ve been stuck inside your time capsule
Don’t you think you
Ought to let me
Go go
Go go
Go go
Don’t chyu think you
Ought to let me go
If I could keep the raspiness in my voice from being sick without getting sick … I would.”
You can call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255.
In 2015, photographer Charles Peterson said Kurt Cobain wanted to move to Scotland before he died.
He recalled, “I remember late one evening I was working with Kurt for a magazine in Manhattan.
“He was just sitting, talking about life with me, then out of the blue he said, ‘I want to buy a castle in Scotland’. Kurt really did want to make his home there.”
“It was maybe a pipe-dream but he wanted to make it a reality. He was serious when he said it. He was enamoured with Scotland and the music scene in Glasgow especially.”
He told the Daily Record newspaper: “I ran into him about a week before his death, right around the time he was supposed to be playing in Glasgow.
“There was no way he looked like he could be playing a gig in Scotland.”
“People were shocked by how he died – I automatically assumed it was a drug overdose.”
“That seemed like it would have just been par for the course. But it was devastating.”
“There won’t be another figure like Kurt – the world has changed and he’s the last music mystery.”
Courtney Love and Frances Bean Cobain recently were in Scotland for Thanksgiving. Cobain had Irish and Scottish ancestry.
