I was around/alive in this day, but was never aware of his death. I was too young.
However, the only thing I can remember seeing anything of Kurt Cobain and Nirvana back then, was witnessing MTV play "Smells Like Teen Spirit" on my television screen. As a kid, I just though it was the weirdest music video I've ever seen. It was so dark and unlike any music video in that time. With the fog; the cheerleaders; the way Nirvana looked and acted; the way I couldn't see Cobain's face with his hair covering it -- it was strange to me. Only if I would've known I was witnessing a revolution.
T'll this day, in 2013, nineteen years later, we see high school kids with Nirvana shirts, listening to their music and tweeting their lyrics... Seems like the Cobain mind will relate to many, in the future.
R.I.P Kurt.
