>There has been a run on Nirvana's albums since Mr. Cobain's death. For the week ending April 10, Nirvana's "In Utero" rebounded from No. 72 to No. 27 on the Billboard charts, only three days after his suicide became news.

>Coincidence?
yes
>>73379024
No, people tend to buy the albums of recently deceased popular musicians

Don't you think it's strange that not only did it rise to No. 27 (the age of Kurt's death) but it was originally No. 72 which is 27 reversed?

seems legit

So you do agree that it is perhaps a bit strange? Perhaps the universe was stating that he was originally to die when he was 72 but he instead opted out thus altering the albums position to a place that reflected that.

that was 100% ironic. nothing new that a depressed junkie musican killed himself
>>73379848
I'm not arguing whether he killed himself. I just don't understand how the chart positions could possibly land on those two numbers.

Pack it up everyone, it's bait.
>releases album about six months before he died
>already went 72
Nirvana were already finished.

What do I have to gain from baiting? I just really find it weird is all.
