See this is the difference between bands who have singers like Courtney Love, Ann Wilson, ane Brody Dalle. Their gender becomes completely irrelevant in their music. They don't sound like women singing rock n roll music. They sound like rock stars.
The song is Kurt's. Eric told me one night he was drunk. Didnt suprise me. Im sure she didnt have any talent to create such a masterpiece. U guys wanna know another one Kurt wrote for her? I wonder why he was shot.
Gotta admit she sings quite well in this one. But nothing special except that. She didnt deserve all that publicity. She sucked upon. This is the face of music industry. A nobody.
True diamonds out there wont have the same success. Marketing+management rules r way ahead of the 60s era
@freakhood bull fuckin shit, you are probably 15 and have nirvana patches on your backpack. stop with the stupid comments. hole kicked ass. stop with this bullshit about kurt writing her material. you know she wrote pennyroyal tea right?
:-) This song always reminds me my Michelle, thanks both of you for living life I love and will love more and more. Sorry girls at least 12 years to marriage and familly; I´ve got lot of problems and load of things to do ... I´ve real credit in the straight world, ;-) sorry for quotation. Tomáš
man, whatever was moving through her for those few years . . . it was awesome! maybe it will come back through someone else, if she is finished with it.
I was at this show way back in the day... They really put on an awesome show.. Courtney Love really used to look great to.. its a shame she let herself and her career go..
Probably the best 'female vocal' rock song of the 90's. This is one of the only live versions i really like. It's definitely the only live performance where Courtney looks pretty good. :)
people who hate courtney are usually shit head nirvana fans who cant cope with the fact that cobain killed himself due to having shit head fans like the ones that they are, so they pretend this crazed junkie rocker managed to kill him and get away with it.
Incredible song and performance, though it breaks my heart that Kristen Pfaff died. She was an incredible bassist and vocalist (and played piano and cello too).
why does someone so gorgeous, so talented, have to be such a nutcase? Drugs destroy so many people. Nearly killed me too. In reto, a hole/nirvana concert woulda been awesome. i cna see 'em joining at the closing. Now that woulda been IT.
Maybe it's just because it was the first live stuff I was exposed to, but Reverb was the best show. Hole, Kid Rock, and Marvelous 3 are some of the bands that were on there. Does anyone remember this show on HBO? Some of the best shit from Hole on there. Going to search it now.
spoukas and rammatramzi you are both idiots you fucking wankers.you never read kurt and have no fucking idea how he felt. people like you are the real killers,you pulled that trigger long time ago and you are so dumb that you dont even know it.
and spoukas, what would hole do without a rockstar husband? hole never needed a rockstar husband, never cared for one.Courtney and Kurt met long before they were famous.
Lo que veo es que cuando la canción les gusta dicen que la escribió Kurt, y cuando no, que fue ella la que compuso ¡qué manga de putos! se nota lo poco que escucharon Nirvana, esto no tiene nada que ver con Nirvana, nada de nada. ¿Se imaginan a Kurt cantando esto? Casualmente ella ejecuta sin problemas las canciones de Nirvana, pero a él no me lo imagino cantando Violet. ¡Cómprense un oído y un criterio manga de come mierda!
courtney and hole are the best

If you ever listened to Cobain's suicide note read by Courtney during the memorial you can easily feel the anger and desolation in her voice.
