"Tearjerker" was partly a tribute to Kurt Cobain and Anthony Kiedis' reaction to his death.

The video, but not so much the song itself, for "Dani California" also makes a reference to Kurt Cobain and Nirvana.

The hit song "Californication" has a line that says "And Cobain can you hear the spheres singing songs off station to station"
RIP Kurt Cobain...you touched a generation and a world like no other man ever did or ever will...though your death was officially ruled a suicide, i know in my heart somebody killed you. Your music and legacy will live on forever.

" Californication " mentions Kurt Cobain.

Space may be the final frontier, but it's made in a Hollywood basement
And Cobain can you hear the spheres singing songs off station to station
