"Handwritten lyrics by KURT COBAIN and a wide range of other memorabilia
donated by NIRVANA, PEARL JAM, SOUNDGARDEN, MUDHONEY and Sub Pop will be
included in a new rock'n'roll museum opening in Seattle this summer. When
it opens its doors on June 23, the Experience Music Project (EMP) will dedicate
an entire exhibit area to the Seattle grunge scene, called Northwest Passage.
As well as a wide range of grunge artifacts, the fully interactive museum - the
brainchild of Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen - will also include videotaped
interviews with ex-Nirvana bassist Krist Novoselic, former Soundgarden guitarist
Kim Thayil, Pearl Jam's Mike McCready and Mudhoney's Mark Arm and Steve Turner."
This interesting story was courtesy of NME. As far back as late '98, this
site put up a bit of info about the museum in the interview with Chad Channing's
parents. You can find more info here.
For those who are interested; "Hi my name's Erv Felker and I play
in a rock band called Difuser. On April 8th (mainly because its a
Saturday & easily booked for us) we're doing a Nirvana tribute show,
complete with an In Utero stage, and video presentation from MTV
recorded April 8th 1994. Its in Tulsa, OK (21st & Garnett) at The
Crystal Nite Club. 18 & over only. [The show] starts at 9:30pm."
A couple of pictures from the band;
#1 and #2. Thanks to Erv.
Nitzan sent in this; "Some of the photos that were a part of the
Nirvana exhibit [in London] were brought to Israel and were put up as
a mini-exhibit. I went there yesterday [March 29] and it was amazing
seeing Kurt's face enlarged on 2 meter high photos, among other things.
Nirvana videos, shows and interviews were played on a big-screen TV,
and some fans sat infront of it singing along. Although there were less
then 30 photos, I enjoyed my visit and it was quite amusing seeing all
the people that came in to see other things, surprised by the mini-camp
all the Nirvana fans formed infront of the TV. Some Nirvana CDs were on
sale and will be till April 15th when the exhibit closes." This exhibit
in Isreal was briefly mentioned in an earlier update. When the exhibit
was on display in London, UK - several news stories were written about it.
For the 7 billion'th time, Comedy Central will be airing SNL featuring
Nirvana; "I just thought you might want to put it in the news that Comedy
Central will be airing the Saturday Night Live episode when Nirvana performs
HSB and Rape Me on April 19, 29, and May 16 at 1pm." Thanks to Lucas for
this story. I believe the timezone is Eastern/Pacific.
In the February 18 update it was mentioned that the owners of domains such
as hole.com and kurtcobain.com were being sued by, among others, Courtney
Love. Rolling Stone also wrote a snippet about the incident in the story
you can read here. Thanks to Shaun
for the transcript.
In Jack Endino's latest newsletter there is a little info on the
No-WTO thing; "Most strange was a project that fell into my lap a
few weeks ago. Back in December, during the WTO frenzy, Jello Biafra
came to Seattle and did a live show with Kim Thayil on guitar and Krist
Novoselic on bass, with Sweet 75's Gina Mainwal on drums. There was
about 20 minutes of WTO-related spoken word from Jello (good stuff,
too) and about a twenty-five minute set of music from the band. A
fellow taped the show on ADATs, and another fellow named 'TR' who
used to be in Sky Cries Mary converted the whole mess into Pro Tools
digital audio files. I was then hired to mix it! To do this I had to
take TR's 9 gig Cheetah SCSI drive down to Hanzsek Audio and plug it
into their Pro Tools rig and go from there. There was editing to be
done to take out some rather-too-pregnant pauses and other bad moments,
and to cut things down to LP length, but no re-recording was done. No
need for it. Still, the live recording conditions were not, um, 'optimal'
let us say, so making it sound good was a bit of a challenge. Probably
got a few new gray hairs from this one but even Jello seems to be happy
now. It's pretty cool. It should be out soon on Alternative Tentacles as
the 'Anti-WTO Combo Live from the Battle in Seattle', or something similar."

"Nirvana got a 'last we forget' mention and part of the Come As You Are Video
was shown on the UK Channel 4 Program T4 on 26/3/00". Thanks to Chris for this.
A lot of new WinAMP skins were added to the 'Nirvana for your PC' section.
All of these were made by Alex Haspel from nirvanafans.at. Thanks a lot
to Alex for these. Check them out here.
Here is a story that is a few days old, but interesting; "Spin
Turns 15 with Madonna, Nirvana, Beasties, and Biggie. Spin, the
nation's leading music and youth culture magazine, will mark its
15th year of publication with a special April anniversary issue
featuring an expansive look back at its greatest hits (and misses),
and a four-way split cover featuring famous cover images from
Spin's past. The issue, which hit newsstands on March 9th, was
released with four separate covers: Madonna, NIRVANA (1993), and
late rapper the Notorious B.I.G. (1997). Spin's special 15th
Anniversary issue takes an intrepid look back at a decade-and-a-half
of shining moments, of metalheads and riot grrrls and B-boys, of
politics and youth culture, outrageous admissions and compromising
positions, and all of the groundbreaking stories caught by Spin's
unflinching eye." This story was courtesy of Yahoo! News, March 3.
Thanks to Adam for the link. The issue also featured a nice article
on Nirvana that you can read
here. The transcript was courtesy of 'keibler'. You can also see
the cover here, courtesy of Alex.
"Channel [V] (Australia) will air a special on Nirvana on the 8th
of April, 2000. The Foxtel TV guide reads: 'Nirvana Teen spirit,
directors cut documentary and special clips' And its listed as
running for 3 hours. A rumour from a guy in Sydney who mailed me
about it says that the clips will be of their Australian tour! Or
big day out 92 footage ... very interesting ... and quite likely,
since they have shown big day out footage at nausium levels in the
last month!" Special thanks to Daniel for this info. Looks like you
folks down under should keep an eye on your VCR's record button this
day! The Teen Spirit documentary mentioned is most likely the docu
produced by Wienerworld Limited, offering some interviews and a tour
of Aberdeen. The director's cut edit of this documentary is only 74
minutes long, however, so additional Nirvana footage must be aired
as well if this Nirvana special is indeed going to last for three hours.
Wow, we made it to TV! Apparently earlier today, the popular Canadian
television channel MuchMusic was airing the "Smells Like Teen Spirit"
video by Nirvana, during their 'Go with the flow' show. Near the end
of the video, there was a caption naming the band's fansite or official
website and this one came up. Randy explained it further; "I live in
Canada. I was just watching tv on the Much Music Station and I came
across SLTS. It was on a show called 'Go With The Flow'. And at the
very end after the name comes up on the screen it had a caption that
said this: Nirvana's Fan Site - www.nirvanaclub.com" Thanks a bunch
to Randy and 'Gbrad85' for this. Would anyone happen to have a recording
of this particular moment? If so, please contact me as soon as possible.
NFC is also mentioned on MuchMusic's official website, at least at the
time being. Check it out here.
Kate Patten of the BBC sent in some interesting information about
a Nirvana special they are working on; "We are wanting to make a film
on Kurt Cobain as part of a series on music heroes talking to fans and
people who knew him about the legacy of the music and the musician.
The filming will take place in the Seattle/Aberdeen area around the
anniversary of Kurt's death. It is not a celebration of his death.
It is an exploration of what Kurt and his music meant to people."
Kate is interested in getting in touch with Nirvana fans from the
Seattle/Aberdeen area, who would be willing to contribute to the
film. So, if you match that criteria and want to contribute to the
project, e-mail me and
I will forward your letter to Kate of the BBC. Serious inquiries
only please. She added that; "If there are any fans in that area who
would be prepared to talk to us, at what I know is a very sensitive
time then that would be good, but any fans should get in touch with me
if they are interested. People can talk to me without committing to
anything so they don't need to be worried." She also wanted to point
out that; "[the film is about] Kurt through the eyes of the fans so
it is not a rehashing of all these previous documentaries." Thanks a
lot to Kate for this information. Remember to e-mail me if you can help.
As reported in the February 12 update, a CD of the December 1999
live concert by the 'WTO Band' will be released shortly. Here is
some more info; "On Dec. 1, 1999, as civilians were scuffling with
police on the streets of Seattle during the WTO convention, Jello
Biafra and a few select friends -- Krist Novoselic (ex-Nirvana,
Sweet 75), Kim Thayil (ex-Soundgarden), and Gina Mainwal (Sweet 75)
-- working under the name the No-WTO Combo, were delivering a message
of their own on the stage of Seattle's Showbox club to those plucky
music lovers who dared to breach the city's 'protest-free zone.'
It turns out that the show was recorded for posterity, and now the
Combo has decided to share it with you. The album, titled (what else?)
The Battle in Seattle, is set for release May 8 on Biafra's own
Alternative Tentacles label. Grungemeister Jack Endino (Nirvana,
Tad, Mudhoney) will handle the production chores." Special thanks
to AllStar News and Gillian G. Gaar for this story. Much more info
about the WTO band can be found in the December and February updates.
A Norwegian newspaper put up some information about an article,
apparently from Melody Maker, about the biggest trouble makers
in rock. On the top of the list is Kurt Cobain, followed by the
Happy Mondays and Black Grape member Shaun Ryder. Courtney Love
is also in the list, not surprisingly. The story was in Norwegian
so I'm not sure if "trouble maker" is the correct translation ;)
Nevertheless you can check out the article from the Norwegian "VG
Nett" here.
Thanks to Roar for the link & Verdens Gang AS for the story. Yahoo!
also put up the story, calling it a 'Rock 'N' Roll Mayhem Poll';
"When it comes to sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll, Kurt Cobain is the
King of Mayhem. The late lead singer of Nirvana, famed for his heroin
abuse, gravelly voice and 1994 suicide, Tuesday topped a chart composed
by Britain's Melody Maker magazine of rock 'n' roll hellraisers. The
magazine's editor Mark Sutherland, reviewing the list of the bad boys
and girls of an industry renowned for excess, said: 'Their antics
read like a litany of sexual deviance, drug-fuelled escapades, self-abuse
and mutilation.' Cobain tops the poll ahead of Shaun Ryder of Happy
Mondays and the late Keith Moon of The Who. Cobain's wife, Courtney Love,
upholds the family honor by taking the No. 8 slot." Read the full Yahoo!
story.
Thanks to Chad Paulson for the link, and Reuters Limited for the story.
A sought after Nirvana recording has now turned up, or info about it at
least. The recording in question is a show Nirvana did in Olympia, WA on
the 18th of January 1991. Someone who has a video of the show has put up
captures from it and a few clips, including "School" in mp3 format.
Here is some more info he provided on his page; "Below are a few video
captures from the rare 1-18-91 'War Protest' show with Nirvana, Helltrout,
Fitz of Depression and more. There are alot of rumors on the net about
this tape. As the owner of the original (and only full copy) I will use
this page to dispell these rumors. I will also be posting some MP3's
from the show." - "The original is on VHS, though it is the original,
it is almost ten years old. The recording process was not the greatest
either." What is in particular interesting about the show is the fact
that it opens with a speech from Krist about the gulf war and ends with
Kurt smashing his guitar with a hammer! While the show would be a nice
addition to any collection, the owner is unwilling to trade it at this
point. Fortunately, he did put up a few MP3's as mentioned and might
put up more eventually. The banner on the right and this information
was courtesy of Willie. If you want to check the MP3's and video shots,
go here. Note: The
mp3's are currently unavailable. We'll keep you posted on the situation.
Some time ago I put up my own 'improved' versions of the songs "Bambi
Kill" and "Clean up before she comes". The songs were improved in the
sense that noise and hiss was reduced, with other various fixes. Now it
has become sort of a hobby to turn old recordings in poor quality into
something that sounds a little better. Often it turns out bad, but I
think I have made some songs sound better than their original source.
The problem with noise reduction is mostly that it often produces an
odd "underwater/burbley" sounding signal, a "rolly" high end, or a
"computerish" mechanical sound. Though, fortunately this sound is not
always clearly audible and its often better to listen to than a constant
hiss. In any case I have compiled my own little experimental CD-R offering
30 tracks most of which were "improved" in some manor. I decided to put
up a couple of clips from the CD. My favorites are probably "Bambi Kill"
and "Clean up before she comes" so I put up some clips of those. Great
songs actually -- yet both remain officially unreleased. I also put up
a clip of the obscure song, labeled as "Seed" on a tracklist and "Misery
Loves Company" by bootleggers. This one is complemented by a clip of the
original, non-edited, noise-filled source I used to work with. It gives
you an impression of how terribly bad these recordings are. With most of
the tracks I just used whatever I had in my collection, thus I am sure
that a lot of the songs could be even better if I had a lower generation
copy. Anyway here are some clips. More will probably be put up soon. Even
if you don't like noise reduction these clips will give you an impression
of the gems that are unreleased - including a beautiful acoustic "Sappy".

Now that we're getting closer to April (the anniversary of Kurt's death), there
are a lot of people wanting to see Nirvana on MTV's show "Total Request" (for
some reason). Last year, there was a huge campaign to get as many Nirvana fans
as possible to vote for Nirvana on TRL. It was a failure, as they didn't play
Nirvana. So that is one of the reasons I get annoyed with all the "Vote for
Nirvana on TRL" hype. But if you are one of those who just have to vote for
Nirvana feel free to do so, on April 5 or 8, here.
Total Request airs on the US MTV every weekday at 3:30 PM, Eastern (2:30 PM, Central).
There was an interesting interview with Dave Grohl last night, when he
appeared in the Swedish talk show "Sen kväll med Luuk". They talked a
bit about Nirvana and Dave gave his standard answer concerning the box.
Some interesting excerpts: "Interviewer: Do you think you would be as
good a solo ... band ... leader, if you hadn't been in Nirvana? Dave:
Oh .. uhm, probably not. I mean, you know, there's no question that one
of the reasons why this band [Foo Fighters] gets so much attention is
because of Nirvana." Eat that, you Foo fanatics! - "Interviewer: We heard
rumours that maybe there would be a Nirvana box out .. is that true, you
know when? Dave: Probably this year. Late this year. Interviewer: Are there
any new tracks on there? Dave: There's a song on it that no one has ever
heard. I know that. That last song we ever recorded. So, uhh ... ". Again,
the song he's referring to is most likely the song known as 'You've Got
No Right' as mentioned in earlier news updates. After
the interview the band did a live performance of "Generator". Thanks to
John, Mattias, Ola, Jonas and several others for info about the show.
Colin Young sent in this; "The local radio station here, EDGE 102.1,
announced that the WTO Band [featuring Krist Novoselic] had gone into
the studio and recorded 5 songs. They didn't give anymore info."
Wall of Sound just published an interesting story with some info from Dave Grohl
about the upcoming Nirvana box; "A Nirvana box set is still on the horizon. Just
don't ask for details, says Dave Grohl, the group's former drummer and the current
leader of the Foo Fighters. 'It's going to happen at some point, but I'm not sure
exactly when,' says Grohl, who's currently at home in Virginia enjoying some time
off before the Foos start a tour with the Red Hot Chili Peppers March 21. 'My guess
is it'll probably come out before Christmas this year. They're just rounding up as
much material as they can to make it as interesting as possible, but I don't know
what's going to be on it. I don't know what it's going look like. I haven't talked
to Krist Novoselic in about a month and a half; the last time we spoke, he wasn't
entirely sure what was happening with it, either.' This story was courtesy of Gary
Graff, Wall of Sound.
Full story. Thanks to Dan for the link.
Well well, the poll announced yesterday is running like a charm. Within 24 hours
it's received about 500 unique votes! Way to go, people! If we keep going like this,
we will surely end up with a result representing a large number of Nirvana fans. So
a huge thanks to everyone who have voted so far. If you haven't voted yet, please do
so here. You can also view the current result of the 'Box
Poll' here. Currently, the 1/94 studio session has taken
a solid lead but the 3/94 session is on a steady 2nd place. It's important to note
that its still unknown whether this particular session took place at all. Anyway,
please keep spreading the word about the poll so we can keep up getting a bunch of
votes from Nirvana fans.
Something I've been toying with for about a week is now finished. I decided to
put up a comprehensive poll, where you can vote for the recording that you would
most like to see included with the forthcoming Nirvana boxed set. The poll will
run for several months so we can get a good impression of exactly which recordings
are most wanted by the Nirvana fans. When the poll has finished, I will forward
the result to some of the people responsible for actually compiling the box. Then,
in a perfect world, they would listen to the fans and include with the box, the
recordings that received the most votes - alas the most wanted recordings.
Of course they could just choose to ignore the fans, but if they decide not to,
this poll should hopefully give an indication of what's hot and what's not.
In any case it doesn't hurt to try and it will only take you two seconds to
vote. I know several other sites have put up similar polls, but none that were
as detailed and lengthy as this one. The goal is to get at least 10.000 votes
so please tell every Nirvana fan you know about it - or put up a link to it.
More information about that is available on the poll page. All votes are much
appreciated. Check the poll here or the current result
here. Note: The scripts handling the poll were entirely
written by me so I can not guarantee that they will work 100%. Though, all tests
so far have turned out perfect. Let me know if you encounter errors. Thanks, and don't forget to vote! :)
I just got a log of yesterday's online chat with the Foo Fighters, courtesy
of the host Planet Internet. The log is pretty easy to read as only questions
and the answers from the Foo's are included (and thus not all the comments
from the people in the chatroom). Special thanks once again to Jeroen for the
link. View the log here.
The log is supplemented by some nice photos of the band members during the chat.
The picture on the right is from the show they did in Amsterdam at the 'Melkweg'
last night. Special thanks to Sebastiaan for this one. Sorry for all the Foo
stuff but I thought this was somewhat interesting and there's been no Nirvana news!

Rich Cracknell sent in this story; "Gavin Rossdale, frontman of Bush
appeared on the 11 O'Clock show, a British 'news alternative'. They
mentioned the Melody Maker magazine poll where Kurt Cobain was #1
Hellraiser and Gavin said he thought Kurt was more of a Punk than
a hellraiser. The poll was also mentioned on the radio a couple of
days earlier." Thanks, Rich. The poll in question was discussed in
the March 21 update.
Mark from the Netherlands sent in this tidbit; "On April 5 [2000]
there will be a NIRVANA night on the dutch TMF
Leeza sent in this; "British Rock magazine Kerrang! is commemorating
Kurt in an issue that is released on April 5th. They have asked for
any drawings, poems, written tributes that anyone has that may be used
in that issue. The address [to Kerrang! magazine] is: Cobain Tribute,
Kerrang!, Mappin House, 4 Winsley Street, London W1N 7AR, United Kingdom."
The British Radio One will, like last year, be airing a Nirvana special
in April; "At midnight on the 4/5th of April, BBC Radio One are playing,
as a rememberance to Kurt, a top ten of listeners favorite songs. You can
vote for your favorite 5 Nirvana songs." Thanks to Robert for this story.
Steven sent in some information about a fraud on the auction part of Yahoo!,
offering rare Nirvana items. Here is the full
story. The person in question is calling himself "dmustaine83" at Yahoo's
auction site. Thanks to Steven Caldwell for this notice.
Not too Nirvana related, but Dave Grohl is featured on the latest album
by the band "earthlings?". The album, "Human Beans", was released March
10. Here is some more info about the
album, courtesy of 'Superstar 77'.
Yesterday, Dave Grohl and the Foo Fighters appeared on the US radio show
"Rockline". He was once again asked about the box; "A caller asked about
the Nirvana boxed set and Dave said that the last time he talked to Krist
Novoselic (about 2 months ago), Krist didn't even know what exactly would
be in it, apparently someone else is rounding up songs for it. Dave assumes
that the box will include live songs and rarities." Thanks to Jonathan for
this story. The 'other person' mentioned is most likely Gillian G. Gaar.
"On y-100, a local Philadelphia staion, Nirvana was the winner of their 'March

show will be aired again in the weekend. I think it is on a Saturday afternoon."
The official Hole website was updated with a new design and a lot of new
material. This includes an mp3 of the Kurt and Courtney duet of the song
"Asking for it". The song has been available through trading for a while
but it still a nice track. The site also offers several other MP3s by Hole.

I decided to end the latest NFC poll after about 500 votes as the
result was pretty clear. The poll "What is your favorite part of this
website?" received 494 votes, out of which 30% voted for this very news
section! The full result: Picture Gallery -- 127 votes (26%), Sound
Gallery -- 47 votes (10%), News Section -- 150 votes (30%), Discussion
Board -- 63 votes (13%), Movie Gallery -- 39 votes (8%), NFC FAQ - 9
votes (2%), Facts and Information section -- 39 votes (8%), Interviews
and Articles section -- 20 votes (4%). So, the definite winner was this
section while the Picture Gallery took a solid 2nd place. Interesting!
Speaking of polls, the 'Box Poll' has been up for a week now and received
more than 1.000 votes! Way to go! Thanks to everyone who voted. If you
haven't voted yet, please do so here. Don't vote twice.
AllStar put up a story about the first stop on the Spitfire tour, featuring
Krist Novoselic; "The spoken word Spitfire Tour kicked off its third year and
biggest run yet Thursday (March 9) in Portland, Ore. on the campus of the
West's most liberal institution, Reed College. Though billed as an enlightening,
intellectually challenging presentation of 'musicians, artists and activists
speaking out on global affairs,' the evening had the feel of a series of
loosely-rehearsed comedy routines." - "... Next up was former Nirvana bassist,
Krist Novoselic, who reflected on last year's tour, claiming that he received
the most grief for advocating democracy as a means of social change. The casual
Novoselic pumped his JAMPAC organization before discussing his reactions to the
WTO talks and resulting riots in his Seattle hometown. With a dry wit and apparent
awkwardness, the lanky Novoselic went through his journal of the historic events,
claiming that the experience was both exciting and akin to 'a political Mardi Gras' ".
This story was courtesy of AllStar news.
The latest album, "The Crybaby", by The Melvins contains a cover of Nirvana's
"Smells Like Teen Spirit" as mentioned several times before in this news section
and in NFC Newsletters. The album is now available over at CDnow. I have not yet
listened to the full cover but only a short soundclip. The SLTS cover has Lief Garrett
on vocals. The album is the final in a trilogy, consisting also of "Bootlicker" and "The Maggot" !
You can buy the album at CDnow here.
Thanks to Michael for the news.
The Nirvana photo exhibit that was displayed in London in January will also
be presented in Tel Aviv, Isreal starting March 29. The exhibit features rare
Nirvana photos by Steve Gullick, Marty Goodacre and Stephen Sweet. Much more
info about the exhibit is available in past news updates. Thanks to Tom for
this news.
Mitch sent in this warning; "You might want to warn your readers about
a Fake Aussie Hormoaning that appears to be circulating a LOT. Somebody
also mentioned a fake 'Blew' CD that was also well done. Check out the
thread on the topic here."
Some additional concert recordings were added to the 'Box Poll', announced a few days
ago. Unfortunately these were left out from the first revision of the document. If you
have not voted already, feel free to vote for one of "new" recordings, should they have
your interest. Check the updated poll here. Thanks to Matt Reeder
for some of the suggestions.
Florian wanted me to put up this warning: "I want to advise that the shop SISTER RAY
[located at] 91 Berwick Street, SOHO, LONDON [UK] sells counterfeits of the Nirvana
Love Buzz 7" single." Thanks for the warning.
Karla Sopp sent in the following story; "I have just bought a copy of Keith Caputo's
new album 'Died Laughing' and was surprised to see there was a song written about Kurt
Cobain called 'Cobain (Rainbow Deadhead)'. Caputo sings in the song 'Cobain was murdered
by you/ Rainbow deadhead knew nothing'. In a recent issue of Kerrang! the interviewer
asked 'Who's 'you' Keith?' Caputo replied 'Everyone, including myself. I wrote the song
after reading the book 'Who Killed Kurt Cobain?'. Maybe it was the fans. Maybe it was
the pressure of the business. This business ain't fun.' Caputo describes Cobain as 'a
very beautiful human being. Very sexy. His soul was so, so heavy. He did it for him, man.
He did it to give his rags and his ugliness to others. I feel like I do that same thing.' "
Hmm interesting. Thanks to Karla for the story.
Brandon sent in this: "Nirvana was just put on 1 of 4 covers for this months issue of
SPIN magazine. Check it out and let your page viewers know bout it.".
On the 7th March at 21:00 the UK VH1 will play a NIRVANA Special! The program is called
"Egos & Icons"
"I would just like to tell you that on the last 5 days leading up to 2000 the
national Irish Radio station had a program that lasted for 4 hours each day, with
the 500 greatest songs of all time and would you believe it? Nirvana were #5. They
beat of the likes of the Beatles and John Lennon." Thanks to Gary for this info.
"Well this is probably just another one of those b@llsh@t rumors but I heard
on my local Dallas Radio station 94.5 the edge that Dave Grohl said that
they were hoping for a release [of the box] this summer and that there would
be a never before heard song on it called 'Know Your Rights' ". Thanks to Adam
for this story. This release date is bogus, but the info about the song should
be correct, only the title may be different.
