Courtney Love Has Written A Song Called "Justice For Kurt"
"I do not need Kurt ruining more of my shit, okay?"
Courtney Love has been working on a new album and one song that will NOT be featured on it is called “Justice For Kurt.” This is sort of weird considering it’s been years since her late husband, Kurt Cobain, committed “suicide”. She explains on the WTF Podcast to host Marc Maron, why the song might not ever see the light of day…or at least not be included in her next album.
Love said the song would overshadow the rest of the music on the album and notes that fans might be "too stupid" not to focus on it.
Let’s be real here, the song is of course in reference to some fans believing Love killed the Nirvana front man. There have been books written and movies made stating such for years, yet no solid proof of this has ever come forward.
"We wrote a secret song that we can't put on [the album] 'cause it's only two minutes and 24 seconds, but it's a rock song," said Love. When asked why she couldn't put it on the record, she responded "It's called 'Justice for Kurt,' and it's great, but we're like, 'Okay, they're too stupid.' It would swallow the entire narrative. Rock does not stream."
"It's not worth it. It's 2:24, it's an earworm and a half. Okay, if I'm going to write a fucking song called 'Justice for Kurt,' it's going to be a fucking earworm. But I am not putting it on that record to ruin my record, right? Like, I do not need Kurt ruining more of my shit, okay? Thank you. Love you, but no."
Love later noted that "it's still [circulating] that I'm this psychopath that killed him" and also mentions that "When I go online, I have to see that. My daughter has to see that too." Still, Love seems like she wants to release the song, adding that it might come out eight months or so after the record.
We’ll see how it sounds when and if it drops.
