  • love this song. first heard it on guitar hero II. the game made me admire the way they use the instruments.

  • dose any one get the feeling his talking about god?

  • It's a love song." Heart Shaped box"-like a Valentines day box . Yeah, it's about Courtney.

  • NoooO!!! Noo!!! you got it all wong he's talking about death. The heart-shaped ox is the coffin. Actually the original name was heart-shaped coff

  • I'm 35 years old. I have all the books. Trust me, I know.

  • Okayy whatever. iknow your still wrong

  • "locked inside your heart shaped box for weeks"

    He is saying he is completely in love with her.

  • "I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn black" Figure it out!!

  • yeah, He wants to to take away her pain because he loves her so much.

  • Ummm loves herr? Yeahh right. Anyways we all have opinions on what a song is about

  • yeah, I aint gonna argue about a song.

  • I'm saying that not everybody who plays those games are like that. There's probably just as many people who say they love nirvana that don't know a thing about them who don't play those games as the people who do.

    Stop being so sensitive about them, I'm a linkin park fan, and I don't piss and moan about how people only know about them through transformers. If anything I like that people begin to find out about them so I can show them some more stuff by them.

  • great band...i just dont like this kind of sick vids... no,men he was brain-sick, on drugs n in a moment of some starge LSD trip killed himself... probably. but,songs rocks really awesome.

  • i dont like narvana much but i like this song, its awesome.

  • courtney love didnt shoot him stupids . . . it was someone else . . . courtney was in russia . . dumb kids . haha .

  • she hired not did so herself

  • go curt

  • how many people believe that Cortney Love is the one who shot him.

  • people dont believe SHE shot him they believe she HIRED someone to shoot him

  • one of Nirvana's sickest songs

    LONG LIVE KURT!!!

  • On one of the original Guitar Hero games did they extend the guitar solo in the game?

  • Petteway23: If you know Nirvana through Guitar Hero, I want you to go fuck yourself and get the hell out of grunge. RIGHT NOW.

  • @Plozen yea i hate when people only know bands from guitar hero

  • How's it any different finding out a band on a video game then finding out about them on the radio? or if a friend told you? If someone finds a band they like, why would it matter how they found out about them? You're just being ignorant.

  • Oh shut up, it's awful. Alternative music is becoming mainstream *AGAIN*.

    You go ask Kurt, right now (sarcasm in paranthesis) if he would mind his memory being defiled by being put into what I believe is the 5th fucking guitar hero game.

    But of course, you obviously don't like Nirvana or you'd be as pissed as we are. You're just another asshole that "learns" about rock through games.

    Also hearing a song on the radio generally means it isn't very good (search "radio friendly song")

  • I agree with you that his character in the game was borderline dumb, but that doesn't change the fact that it doesn't matter how you discover bands. And I am a Nirvana fan, and no I didn't discover them through rock band/guitar hero. I'm just not a whiney little girl, like you, who likes to blindly complain about such dumb things. I find if more people start to like music that I enjoy, then all the power too them.

    Also, it depends which station you listen too. (p.s. jon lajoie is the shit.)

  • People who hear music on guitar hero assume that they know about classic rock. The song "stricken" sadly was thrown onto Guitar hero and now you get these pussies who assume Disturbed is just about making "good catchy music" as opposed to exposing the mind of someone who is truly fucked in the head (David Draiman, though I'm nearly sure I've misspelled his name)

    The game breeds arrogant little pricks who don't know shit about shit. It needs to be dealt with like the Spanish Inquisition.

  • You're just stereotyping people who play the games. Obviously there would be people who hear one song, like it and choose not to see what the band's all about, (there's even people who do that outside of people who play rock band) but there's more people who would research a group after hearing something.

    I just think that if you think you're a better fan by discovering them a different way, then you're an idiot.

  • I'm not a better fan, I'm a *real* fan.

    Maybe you've heard of Linkin Park; they were originally a fairly underground band with little mainstream credibility, but then they started selling their songs to movie trailers. All of a sudden you can't say Linkin Park without some guy mentioning Transformers, or some girl talking about Twilight. They claim to listen to the band, but they don't actually "listen" to the band, and they never will.

  • what a stupid elitist way of thinking. Do you think you were the first to discover nirvana? It doesnt matter how a song is spread or discovered. Some people didnt grow up in the same era as others did idiot. Music isnt made to be kept in some little box only shared with select people, granted some are dumber than others(i.e. you), isnt the point. By the way nirvana has been broadcasted on the radio for a long time and still is if i remember correctly.

  • I don't think I'm the first to discover Nirvana. I wouldn't even classify myself as a big fan. Hell, Kurt died about a year before I was born.

    The fact of the matter is that 90 percent of guitar hero players think that being good at guitar hero translates to being good at guitar, or having any sort of musical ability whatsoever. This translates to being retarded.

    And yes, Nirvana was played during the 90's alot (haven't heard them lately on the radio) back when music was decent.

  • @Plozen that really wasn't the argument I was trying to defend that guitar hero players think it translates to being musically inclined. And personally I've never met anyone that said or think they can play guitar because they know how to play guitar hero. Ive played piano for 8 years and i can see why there can be a relation to playing an instrument and guitar hero: hand-eye coordination and rhythm.

  • Yeahh dudee but Guitar hero is so freakkin' diffirent that the real thing. People who find out bands from guitar hero need to get a lifee!!

  • @Plozen , also just seeing how you think the radio automatically renders a song 'not very good' shows how narrow minded and contradicting your own logic is.

  • uh, KURT hated the term "Grunge". That was a media term,so i wouldnt use that if you are claiming to be a REAL fan.

  • @ilovejourney1 what else to call it i mean id call it the greates music created but id rather not get into a huge argument

  • well, at least you are listening to it. My bad.

  • Rofl, say what you want about it, it's Grunge music. That's what it is.

    Just like how something like say, the Jonas Brothers will always be pop, not rock.

  • @Plozen If anyone does think that, yes that does sound retarded.

  • yea i just played it last night (its GH2) and im glad they use the real songs now not covers

  • :D Whoooooooooooo ... :D Thanks Kurt ...

  • this song is fuckin awesome

    cant get it out of my head!

    nirvana forever!!!!

  • Can somone pleasseee explain the music video to me please?? Like what each person and such represents?? PleasE?

  • do you have messenger ?:D

  • a dam good song who is with me

  • man i am a dude and i say that i sometimes cry wen i hear kurts voice i wasnt even alive then bt i stll miss him so much he is the master of rock

  • grunge dude

  • Just looking into Kurt's eyes makes me want to cry:(

  • youre fucking stupid it doesnt say hate or haight\ RETARD

  • can you or anyone tell me what this song means???

  • I heard he wrote it about people/kids with cancer but i could be wrong

  • Your sooooo wrong!!! It's about death Just read my other comment on the video

  • Why you so angry?

  • idk i shouldnt have blown up it was a simple mistake i just get bitchy with lyrics DX

  • this wasnt random or confusing at all ^_^

  • is the little girl in this video his daughter??

  • no it isnt

  • Okay, because Kurt died-may his soul rest peacefully-no body can really know what the song is about, but personally i have found so many meanings out of each individual verse its amazing, sometimes it takes something thats going on in your life to find out the way Nirvana's song can be taken... personally i take it as being in love so much, that you cant repay them and as they fade away you dont know how to do without them and you wish you could just relive it all, its all opinion though

  • Great point man

  • i dont understand this song at all i only listened to it because my x-boifrend loves it could someone please explain the meanin to me please???

  • Is it just me or does kurt look hottest live. and im a dude btw, and your all probably gonna thumbs me down <_< but he does imo.

  • there best video and song i reckon

  • brilliant

  • LindseyWay sorry to break it to you but your wrong, it was always heart shaped box, he wrote the song after buying Courtney Love a Heart shaped box when they first started going out

  • actually your wrong, the lyrics were different for a while, but courtney bought him the box, not the other way around.

  • You just hate me cuz I'm black!!!!!!111

  • i dont understand the words well.. but i feel this to the bone

  • Kurt looks hot in this video :D

  • kurt looks hot in every video

  • the santa jesus is hotter rofl

  • i think kurt is hotter partly cos i dnt know what the santa jesus is lol

  • You're into a dead guy btw...

  • I now but he does i cant help it

  • yea..no blaming you. too bad he was married too..well someone who thought it would be just fine to share his diary with the world. :/

  • Yeah i agree i think sharing kurts diary to world was a shity thing to do something as personsal as his diary should be kept private. :l

  • if he was still alive dave grohl prob wid of stayed at nirvanna

  • Grunge Rock, started and ended with Kurt Cobain. End of story. Nirvana is something I want to reach.

  • Its not Hate and then Haight. Its just Hey, Wait twice. lol

    Still a good song. No, a great song. Even better, its an amazing song.

  • do you know the band seether? listen to them dude ;)

  • This song is so creepy...But is very Emotional too...

    Nirvana Are The Best...

    1.) yummy

    2.) amazingly talented

  • I am very perplexed by that comment. I agree with 2.) though.

  • Simply Fuc*ing Brilliant...

    (Censored myself so as not to give Youtube the satisfaction!)

    Check out my Nirvana cover versions and comment...

    + Peace +

  • this is the best song ever because i like the cool rift and the chourus ROCK ON Kurt!

  • This is an awesome song so FUCK YOU one biggo sammich!!!

  • i heard this song was supposed to be called "heart shaved box" (Vaginaaaa hells yeah) but the record company made them change it.

  • The record company made them change alotta things. Take the original lyrics for "rape me"....

  • they made him change the lyrics to rape me?

  • Comment removed

  • that brings the lyric ''I've been locked inside your Heart Shaped box, for weeks''

    to a whole new level

  • Nu Uh, Retard it was supposed to be called "Heart Shaped Coffin".

  • you fyuckin idiot it was supposed to be called 'heart shaved box' but the suits made them change it and 'heart shaped coffin' was just one of the many names they were playing around with as a possible substitute. get a fuckin brain you faggot.

  • it was called heart shaped coffin courtney said it would sound better as heart shaped box says in heavier then heaven any hoo

  • yeah it was heart shaped coffin

  • i memorized this song

  • Congrats Fag

  • god kurt is so handsome.

  • kurt isnt gone to me....

    he lives on in his music

  • what does the video mean

  • I think it has something to do with a drug trip. Im not sure though. I think the red flowers are poppies....and Opium is made from poppy seeds, and Heroin is an opioid. Thats just my take on the video though, everyone interprets things differently. I think this video has something to do with his relationship with courtney and then him finding out she was pregnant, hence the "umbilical noose" and "baby's breath" but thats just what I think anyways.

  • awwh thnaks :)

  • i just love how he looks stoned in this vid... of course should it surprise me if he actually was? no probably not.

  • i luvv Kurt Coz hes so retarded.lmao

    jkz...

    its a shame that a rock legend iz no longer in this world.

    R.I.P

    Kurt Cobain. xxx

  • i just want to say one thing stop pretending to like music because u play guitar hero play a real instrument start a real band guitar hero takes no talent just extreme boredom and alotta time

  • so uv played it then lol...

  • Exactly what I think!!

  • i wish he wouldnt have died, so bad, he could still be making amazing music. when i ,isten to these guys im calm and i understand what he's saying everything is forcive medaphor`

  • i've read it was some dude called Allen Wrench. All i can say is that if i ever run into him ever in my life...i will kick him square in the nuts.

  • a few mistakes in the lyrics :P theirs the "eat your cancer when you turn black"

    its back and the "Hate Haight" its Hey Wait again.

  • you guys this is someones family that you guys are talking about. he was a human like the rest of us, he made mistakes like the rest of us so i would apretiate if you would stop talking shit about my family members

  • Comment removed

  • All of a sudden this song has a brand new meaning... and I love it even more.

  • vid's kinda creppy but i love the song

  • the shots of kurt out of focus look so cool

  • its gay some people only know this song only through gh2

  • I dunno what gh2 is, but I've known this song for a LONG time... I suppose it doesn't matter who learns it from where so long as good music is still appreciated. Guitar Hero? DUH. Okay... still... standing by my comment.

  • hes not stupid. ok dude... if thats what he wanted let it be. back the heck off of him. would you?

    you cant judge a person by if they kill themselfs.

    nothing was wrong with him. and he wasnt stupid.

    he got what he wanted.. problem solved!

  • omg kurt why did u OD or kill yourself your stupid for that but ur music rocks!

  • Actually he didn't overdose is what I heard, but he had enough heroine in him to kill a horse. As far as his death there are two rumors I know of. 1. He shot himself because Nirvana got to corporate. 2. His wife shot him.

  • 1. He shot himself 2. His wife shot him/payed someone to kill him 3. Some people say he overdosed before someone shot him, obviously this ties back to theory 2, since he could not overdose and then kill himself.

  • Oh all right. Oh and it wasn't a horse it was a Rhino is what I heard on a documentary. But yeah I never heard that he overdosed but it wouldn't surprise me.

  • Duude.

    Courtney did not kill nor pay someone to kill Kurt.

  • You Dont Know That For Sure... Prove It.

  • ACTUALLY!!

  • I did a HUGE research paper about this last year. What is documented is shot up ALOT of heroine, and then killed himself with a 12 gage. But the amount of heroine he shot up was enough to leave him in a coma within seconds. This was not enough time to clean off the needle and put it in a case across the room (as it was found) and THEN kill himself. With This along with MANY other things, i have proven without a doubt in my mind, that he was murdered. If you want more info message me on here...

  • Hey man, I respect the information you have shared with me, and I will not say it's not true, because it may be. Do you think I could read your paper somehow? I would really enjoy to read your opinion on the subject. I have always been on middle ground on this subject, because both theories make sense, this is the first time I hear that after he took heroin (which i knew) he set it in a case and then killed himself. Thanks.

  • WOW if you could attach your paper as an attachment for an email I'd love to read it thanks!!!

  • oh id love to read it to!

  • I would have to agree with you that I think he was murdered. Obviously I dont know for sure but Ive done a bit of research myself and a person with that much heroin this their system couldnt have been capable of anything really. Im sure he had quite high tolerance, but seriously! It was like four times the amount that would kill you.

  • welll maybe he died on an overdose or herion and then came back to life and blew his head off with a shotgun,which is more badass tha chuck norris im just kidding yeh i think he was murderded

  • so what if he killed himself its none of ur buisnes so shut the fuck up

  • No need to get protective about it. It goes to show that this world is still not ready to accept its gifts. Maybe one day, but not as of late.

  • CAn somebody tell me whats wrong with my computer? I clicked on another video for "heart shaped box" and it says something like a group of highly trained monkeys is dealing with the situation. I dont know what to do. Is there a virus?

  • no its just fags trying to waste your time

  • I hate time wasting fags!

    Damnit.

    O.o

  • no not a virus. its happened to me before on youtube. its stupid. i dont know what it is though

  • dave grohl went on to make the foo fighters

  • from what i hear krist went on to be a politician o.O

  • R.I.P Kurt Cobain use Nrivana fans will always love u bro

  • i really like this song

    i love it so good

  • If the organ woman with wings was Courtney Love instead, it would have been better and a bit more specific, even though it wasn't Cobain's idea.

  • kurt has killde himself with a shotgun, because of drugs! he (and all the other guys) destroyed their life with drugs, that is uncool. but i still like the music they played. R.I.P Kurt, have a nice death, i love your music!

  • just to let you all know he might not have killed himself they dont really know... it might have been an accidental overdose.. i believe it was. love you kurt <3

  • Kurt <3

  • man its so sad such a good singer killed himself man kurt i salute u

  • OMG i love this song my band is about to start doing it:D

  • i only wish people today knew what real music is. unlike todays music nirvanas had meaning and feeling in it

  • "zajebisty" teledysk taki trochę straszny...

  • see this is awsome music unlike that gay scrotm boi (solja boi)

  • I would have worded it differently, but I feel the same way. Real music is dead, any shitface with a computer can crank out a shitty beat and make a million bucks off shallow, tasteless kids these days.

  • dude thats music it has no point thats why they call it music and why should we judge weather or not they have bad taste man

  • I finally know what this song is about, after finally reading the lyrics...what a trip. Kurt was singing, "I got a new complaint".

  • The song is about Heroin - hence poppy fiels - magnet tar pit trap etc etc

  • That's what I gathered. I also noticed the flowers (poppy field) in the video.

  • and the heart shaped box courtney gave him... filled with creepy looking dolls O.o

  • yes that is true but also they collected heart shaped boxes for a first date kurt gave cortney love a heart shaped box their house waz full of them

  • yeah i know but the first time courtney heard nirvana play , she sent him a box the next day filled with dolls and rose peddles. cause kurt had this creepy obbession with bald dolls and she liked him. it's how it all came about lol. it's in his journal, and the book heavyer then heaven

  • yes but kurt waz a kinda of a liar that waz caught up in his own world check out kurt cobain unseen and yes kurt waz upseesed with doll heads and crap like that but he waz mostly upssed or however u spell that fucking word waz aliens and female parts like um down their

  • he wasnt ubsessed with female parts he made collages or howver u spelled it with disease vagiana's and such and raw meat and all that stuff i've read alot of biographies of him and stuff but yah.. im no speller btw

  • add-vice

  • I love that :D

  • hey if you listen very closely starting at 3:02 till the chorus begins you can hear someone singing along with him, david grohl im guessing?
