AHem, in the words of Tom Waits, "you start off making bad impressions and you eventually get your ideas out the way you want", paraphrased. But you still have to have original ideas to begin with. I'm not one to say I don't try and cop people off, but it's often is exercise. One week I was really really into of montreal and wrote a song in their style (spoken word about strange things such as dogs chewing bubblegum set to sudden chord changes and such), but it was a known action and i didn;'t try taking a melody or lyrics from them, I just kicked my own out on that side.
This guy has similar facial structure to cobain, but if you took down the hair and the nirvanabe aspects he could be himself. He obviously loves ht guy, but any one who's had anything bad happen to them in their life can realte to nirvana (paraphrase bitchdork), this guy's bad thing is a complete loss of identity... no one likes matt, but everyone loves cobain- one day a girl said "hey you look like kurt, so cute" (i get napolean dynamite, thru voice, thus making my famous relation an agitation) and he already had a standing love for the guy, then it blew up to this shit. I'm sure one day he'll pass out of it, one day he'll get laid and loved for himself and he won't need the shell of someone elses skin- that's my hopes for him.
