There was a woman who had an alabaster box of very precious ointment and she poured it on the head of Jesus. We need to honour the King. The Lord God. ”that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.“ John 3:15 KJV. The Lord Jesus Christ. Repent means change, change from sin. Turn away from sin. Love and fear God. Call on the name of Jesus Christ. Draw nigh to God and he will draw nigh to you. He saved me. There is the lake of fire which is burning for eternity and there is heaven.

I actually knew her a little bit when I lived in Boston- I would see her playing on the subway platforms (most often on the Red Line, at Park Street) and in Harvard Square on Friday and Saturday nights. My friend Kevin had a crush on her. We were not close friends, but we were friendly, and would chat here and there. If anyone is questioning whether Mary Lou is putting on an act here, she isn't. She is an authentically nice person.

Hello anyone reading. There was MUCH more to this interview than just this short piece. I hope that someday they release the whole thing because it was the only time I actually ever told this story with anyone. (ON camera, anyway)..... I talked about the loss of my dear friend Elliott Smith (who was a little brother to me, and how I looked out for him, and how we shared time on the road, and our friendsip.....), Elliott also passed away....And I talked about the fact that, if Kurt had the chance to have met Elliott (the window of time between them meeting each other was tiny) -Maybe 5 months. Kurt would have adored Elliott. If they had gotten the chance to meet, I honestly think they would have made music together, and quite possibly, saved each other's lives through the love of music, and what they could have balanced out, and given each other. But alas, it never happened. But my God, I SO wish Kurt had hung on long enough to have met, befriended, and ultimately made music with Elliott. In the "extended" interview (that you do NOT see here), I told that story as well. Elliott was in Portland after finishing College at Hampshire, and Kurt died just a couple months before. Man, if they had ONLY gotten the chance to meet. It should have happened, and it would have been amazing for both of them. For Kurt to find Elliott. It quite possibly could have saved him. Just saying. Someday I hope this entire interview (not just THIS clip) will be shown. There was SOOO much more to it, and so much more I said about those first few months of Nirvana's breaking, etc.......anyway, It meant a lot to me, and I THOUGHT they were going to run the whole story about everything I said. But, they cut is short. ANyway.....In my mind, Kurt and Elliott are together and finally met. I miss them both SO very much.

I don’t think kurt dating mary lou. I feel she just side chick. Kurt always on the road. They’re know just 4 week. And Obviously kurt want Courtney bc he met Courtney since 89. And kurt and Courtney started talked each other in may 91. Before Kurt dating Courtney. she have relationship with billy corgan so kurt don’t dare into her bc he thinks he doesn’t attracted to her.

OOOMMMGGGG i was searching for it! She's the girl cited on Heavier Than Heaven! Oh Mary, you are awensome 💙💙💙💙💙

She seems really nice! Cool of her to come out and share these stories.

nobody would know who she was if she didn't come out and name drop about her one night stand with a famous guy who was just using her.

This is such a fascinating story! We’re is the rest of it?

Wow this is great I luv learning new things about Kurt or the band an the plp around them but same time it hurts my heart that he's gone.

My freshman year in college was the first year The Ratt was closed. My dorm was a few blocks away. I remember seeing the front of the place closed up and the whole city was in mourning.

Wow. That actually made me cry.

I cry happy tears for this woman's life experiences that she wasn't even aware at the time would impact her as a human being in such a profoundly beautiful way. Nothing can take those moments from her heart...nothing.

why? he was just using her for a quickie, as was his usual. This wasn't a romance or a love story at all, she is trying to make it into that but it's 100000% bogus. it's getting her a lot of attention though.

RIP Kurt Cobain. Can't believe it's been 27 years and you're still gone.

Based on her story on how she met Kurt, it seemed that he was a very respectful guy. He didn't try to get into her pants by being a sleazeball... he was humble and knew how to say thank you. It was clear how she respected Kurt as a human being on this clip.

He LOVED music. He loved Daniel Johnston. He loved the Misfit music that no one cared about at the time. I ALREADY knew the bands he loved, and I think he loved me for loving them, without having been turned on to them BY him. I already knew.

Imagine being friends with both Kurt Cobain and Elliott Smith. Jesus, she was so lucky.

So cool to hear her memories. I used to go to The Rat all the time when I lived in Boston, so many great bands! I also used to ride the red line constantly, I may have even seen her there and just don’t remember. My fondest memory of that time is seeing Throwing Muses live.

She reminds me of Tara Reid.

Music is not dead. Your mind is. Kurt was all about expressionism, no matter how it's done. Maybe in a perfect world you get rid of modern music. And all bands/music sound how you want them to sound then what would that be? That would get boring and bland real quick. Learn to be more open minded. Just imagine how your parents felt when they first heard you listen to Nirvana. That's why this generation is annoyed by "old heads" you guys still have your bitter 90's cynicism in uuuuuu

Wow! Such a great story!

Absolutely beautiful memories for you. Did it feel surreal? When I met Jimmy Miller he was sat with primal scream and the drummer from queen, I didn’t recognise them because they looked way older than in magazines

Toooo bad a certain someone came into Kurts life shortly after this. Mary seems so very genuine and cool. All about the art vs. all about the fame and money.

Seems like a nice lady, lucky one too to have met Kurt Cobain!

Tracy Marander was the most important of Kurt's ex-girlfriends because she was the one who was behind his creative genius by giving him some emotional security and financial support for about 2 years that allowed him to concentrate ONLY on his music and have the freedom to write almost all of the songs from Bleach, Incesticide and part of Nevermind during the period they were together as a couple (Kurt lived at her house for a time where he also did some paintings and artwork)!

True that.

I remember the day I first saw them on MTV. I had just gotten home from school. I used to have a small tv propped up next to my bed. I was laying on my stomach and saw their video. I was at the mall buying "Nevermind" that week....possibly the next day after school. I vaguely remember riding my bike to the mall which was less than a mile from the school. Not too long after that I was with my church group w the Unitarian Church out in the mountains at some place you can rent a whole camp area. There was a band that played.....the kids from other Unitarian CHrich's from other cities were really into the flannel shirt attire and just dressing freaky. That was the first time I'd seen "moshing" and also the first time I'd heard Eddie Vedder's voice. The song "Black" was playing between sets and I remember being really transfixed by this song. That was quite a weekend. Never seen anything like it my whole life.

Mary has a lovely singing voice.

Wow what could've been. Kurt met Courtney at a Portland show. He himself said he had never met anyone so outspoken and charismatic. He loved the excitement she brought to their relationship. Courtney was like a version of him he could never bring himself to be. He was more shy and introverted. That's probably why he was so attracted to her more than any other chick in that era. Their drug abuse brought them closer together unfortunately, but even with Frances and his rise to fame, he couldn't handle it. It's such a shame to see someone like that go. We have lost too many people to addiction and suicide. It's not fair for people to blame Courtney for his death when he was an adult that made his own decisions. She tried to help him even when she was battling with her own addictions. For their marriage, Frances, and the band. Because he wanted to end it all. And he did. Tragically.

He cheated normal girls all for Courtney. He have double dippin. Obviously He never want stability life. I believe Courtney give sex, drugs and raw him. kurt outspoken and raw more bc Courtney influenced him. I mean Courtney many guy want slept with her too. 90s she beautiful and sexier. Great body. Back then he have many girls for chooses it. But the end he chose Courtney

man, if he was with her for the next few albums, they would be WAY different! we would probably still have him and multiple other records.

Personally I think Kurt would have been much better off with her

I like to think that we all have a soulmate where for one night there's magic and a beautiful connection that's remembered forever. It happened to me in November of 08, the Saturday before Thanksgiving. Beautiful that it happens but tragic that it doesn't last forever.

Oh this is so sad, she was/is in love with him. Too bad this didn't work out as she seems like a great woman.
