Tearjerker is a song off of the Red Hot Chili Peppers record ‘One Hot Minute’. The song is about fellow musician Kurt Cobain, the lead singer of Nirvana. In the song, Anthony Kiedis is heard singing about Cobain’s “pale blue eyes” and “whiskers”. Kiedis also references the night that he met Cobain, whom was backstage wearing a dress (typical).
