It’s a well established fact (read: not actually a “fact”, but you know what I mean) that Courtney Love had Kurt Cobain murdered is a bit of a money grubber, slightly selfish, highly overrated and a generally all around awesome person.
So it should really come as no surprise that the image you see above, from Rolling Stone’s website, is her official ballot for “100 Greatest Singers”. In case you can’t read through her heroin induced chicken scratch, she originally had Kurt Cobain at 1 and herself at 2 … but then apparently decided that Kurt’s contribution to the world of music (you know, changing the entire f’ing face of a generation and helping to navigate a change away from 80’s glam rock) wasn’t really up to snuff with producing one hit single and becoming the modern day Yoko. So she swapped herself out into first and bumped Kurt back to second. But it’s okay, she’s got Patsi Springfield and John Lennon tied at 15 … just six spots behind Billy Corgan.
Awesome lady that Courtney Love.
