Kurt Cobain sings Bon Jovi in ‘Guitar Hero 5′

In the new edition of ‘Guitar Hero 5′ - just released in America - you can unlock the character of Kurt Cobain and make him sing all sorts of hideously undignified songs, including Bon Jovi’s ‘You Give Love A Bad Name’, and songs from Megadeth, Public Enemy and Nirvana wannabes - Bush.

Needless to say, Nirvana fans are up in arms!

Courtney Love, who controls the rights to Cobain’s image, played a major role in putting Cobain’s image together for the game, Activision’s Vice President of Music Affairs Tim Riley told RollingStone.com. It is not clear whether Love had any opinion on what the unlockable Cobain character could perform, or just took the money and ran.
