Hey! My sister and I are having a huge argument over who's better. She thinks Miley has a better voice and that Kurt Cobain had a terrible voice, boring music, and is overall overdone and not that big of a deal! She claims that in 20 years Miley Cyrus is going to be bigger than Nirvana! What do you think of all this? I tell her to never compare kurt to someone like MILEY! I told her to compare to Jimi Hendrix and other legends and she claims that he's not a legend, and that he shouldn't be compared to other music icons! Can you believe that?! Tell me what you think.

You are right, right, and more right. Kurt completely defined a generation. That other "thing" you mentioned (won't even call her a human at this point) is merely famous so America has something to talk about. Kurt was exactly just like Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, or Bob Dylan. He gave the 90's a voice when they had none. No offense to Eddie Vedder or Alex Band, but they weren't up to the task. He made his own life tragic, and what's so sad is that he was completely unprepared for the tasks of being constantly scrutinized. Never in a million years could an insane, attention-craving weasel like her even hope to have an impact on the same level as Kurt's. There will never be another artist like him. Nirvana was the last truly great rock band, and Miley Cyrus is an embarrassment to us all. Tell your sister she may never understand it, but Kurt will ALWAYS be superior in every possible way.

LOOK OK. I am a huge Nirvana fan. HUGE. And I dont listen to Miley or Justin, they're just not my type, but they are talented, regardless. But because Nirvana and Kurt Cobain were so Iconic, their song material is never touched. I mean have you ever heard a cover since they ended? No, of course not. Covering any of their songs is like covering a Beatles or Jimi Hendrix song. Their music was original and their own style, so for someone to copy it is stupid. And Bieber thinking hes the next Kurt Cobain? No where close.

Kurt Cobain was part of a grunge band called Nirvana, Miley Cyrus is a current pop artist.



Really, there's nothing to compare, they produce(d) two completely different types of music.



But really, you're both being immature. Everyone has different tastes, and just because you like and appreciate Kurt Cobain, doesn't mean your sister has to, and you should respect that. Not everyone is gonna agree with you all the time, and just because you think Kurt Cobain and Nirvana are very important, they're not important to everyone..

Miley Cyrus is an attention seeking little brat. She will never be as good as Kurt Cobain. Kurt helped invent a new genre. Miley just exists in a genre that is so generic its unbelievable.

Kurt Cobain is WAAY better than Miley Cyrus. Kurt Cobain is a legend whose music will live on forever, whereas Miley Cyrus is just an average pop singer that will be forgotten in a few years.

Kurt Cobain is a legend and far more talented than Miley Cyrus.

Kurt Cobain was absolutely amazing, Miley does not even begin to compare to him. Kurt was a hero and an inspiration to many. Miley is good in her own way, but definitely does not compare to this musical legend, this musical hero.

Miley is terrible!

I really hope that people don't look up to Miley Cyrus because she is a terrible influence and a horrible role model.

I've heard some of Nirvana's music and I love them :)

Miley...UGH.

you win, Kurt Cobain is way better



but it's pretty obvious people are gonna be choosing Kurt Cobain on here :P You don't need to try and prove her wrong by posting this... just stick to what you like and let her listen to what she wants. Nirvana is definitely better, though xD

You already know the answer, and you're just looking for a reason to gloat over your sister.



Some battles are best left alone. Grow up. This question blows btw

Compare them? I think both make (made) boring, generic pop music for kids too lazy to find something better. They both dress(ed) like morons and make (made) asses of themselves on television. And the biggest thing they have in common is the fact that people won't shut the hell up about them even though they are dead, commercially in Miley's case and literally in Kurt's case.
