"I saw Miley's cover of 'Teen Spirit' in South America. The crowd just went crazy. And I thought, How beautiful, man, because I do believe Kurt's spirit is very much still on this earth, through his fans and his music. I did have a very surreal moment watching my little girl do their song, realizing, Wow, these kids are singing along to this in English, every word. And I'm sure that Kurt loves it."

- Bill Ray Cyrus, in Spin's August issue (interview by yours truly)
