    And you know nothing about slander, evidence, or copyright laws, do you?

    I am not interested in this at all. You have no case of any kind based on what you've written here.

    If YOU are seriously interested in pursuing this, you're going to need to spend some serious money on a lawyer. "Proving" your case, if you don't have a LOT more evidence than you've indicated here, is going to cost many, many, many thousands of dollars.

    Your not a music listener are you. Before we go any further I suggest if your seriously interested in this go watch some live nirvana on you tube or bootlegs and really listen to the band and the crowd.
    Aw, bless your delusional little heart.

    Run along, dear.

    shit boy, I come from the time of Aerosmith, Black Sabbath, AC/DC. I was "into" music before Nirvana thought about being a band.

    and I just listened to Smells like Teen Spirit (although I have heard or watched it hundreds of times before). Who else, other than cobain sang on the song?



    and a little funny bit of useless knowledge;

    Cobain had no idea Teen Spirit was a deodorant when he named the song and that the source of the title was because of the deodorant.

    But for shits and giggles, let's say you wrote every one of their songs, every single word. For a court to rule in your favor, you have to prove your claim so,


    prove your claim.



    and again, give up on the slander. There is no slander here, no way, no how.

    Note you gave those letters to her. You did not formally retain copyrights. Contact her so she can sue.

    come on dis. You're better than that:


    § 202 . Ownership of copyright as distinct from ownership of material object

    Ownership of a copyright, or of any of the exclusive rights under a copyright, is distinct from ownership of any material object in which the work is embodied. Transfer of ownership of any material object, including the copy or phonorecord in which the work is first fixed, does not of itself convey any rights in the copyrighted work embodied in the object; nor, in the absence of an agreement, does transfer of ownership of a copyright or of any exclusive rights under a copyright convey property rights in any material object.

    § 204 . Execution of transfers of copyright ownership

    (a) A transfer of copyright ownership, other than by operation of law, is not valid unless an instrument of conveyance, or a note or memorandum of the transfer, is in writing and signed by the owner of the rights conveyed or such owner's duly authorized agent.

    Even if I accept that your seventh grade girlfriend shared your love notes with various bands, and that they were so thrilled with the phrases contained therein that they just couldn't keep themselves from using them in song lyrics, this dates back to the early 1990's. The statute of limitations on a federal copyright infringement claim is three years from when the cause of action accrued.
