Let it Die by the Foo Fighters
Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Is the Patti Smith song "About A Boy" about Cobain?
Yes.
I know I've seen a list of songs about Kurt and Courtney. There's a lot.
Courtney inspired "Bruise Violet" by Babes in Toyland, among other songs.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Huh. More than I'd thought there'd be.
Thanks.

Is the Patti Smith song "About A Boy" about Cobain?
Not on any of those lists: Mary Lou Lord's "Some Jingle Jangle Morning", which, oddly, was also originally titled "About a Boy".
(or maybe not so odd, given Nirvana's "About a Girl")

Mary Lou Lord's "Some Jingle Jangle Morning",
I love that song! I have that CD and an acoustic version on a 45 that I should digitize or find a digital copy of (as I like the acoustic version better).
Twice I was going to see her play Chicago, but both times she canceled to go back into rehab. Don't know what she's up to now....
eta: I loved that song for several years before I found out it was about Kurt. Also, she was the one that Courtney attacked on stage once, right?

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
That list left off the Go-Betweens' "When She Sang About Angels."

Lives in Salem, raising her tween daughter. She still performs occasionally, and was recently talked into booking a Wednesday night music series at a new venue in Somerville. I see her around.

Wouldn't surprise me.
