Sure they were a buncha high school drop-out glue-sniffing losers who made a hellacious garage noise with instruments they could barely play, but they had something to say. Basically: "screw you, I am human and alive and can hurt myself more than you can ever hurt me so do what you want." Which is pretty much which most great art says, if you think about it.

Gore has explicitly said he's "throwing away" his prepared text. To broadcast his soul searching, he has released his Vietnam letters. His campaign has even leaked Gore's handwritten text of an ad to show he's not consultant...
...explain it this way," he continues. "When I was living in the woods, there was sort of an undertone, an underlying feeling that things were basically right with my life. That is, I might have a bad day, I might screw something up, I might break my ax handle and do something else and everything would go wrong. But...I was able to fall back on the fact that I was a free man in the mountains, surrounded by forests and wild animals and so forth...
