I, coincidentally, had been trying to reach [Kurt Cobain] through our offices to tell him that I thought he was great and he should do exactly what he thought he should do and fuck everybody else… So when he died and left that note [quoting Young’s ‘It’s better to burn out / than to fade away’ lyric], it struck a deep chord inside of me. It fucked with me.
