  • probably my favorite song ever. Its so amazing, how is it not more famous?!?

  • this song touches me so deeply inside

  • hole is better than nirvana.

  • @sugarstone69

    That's how I am. I get so much flack for liking Hole, but it doesn't phase me.

  • @sugarstore69

    I am the same way. I love Hole and I get so much flack for it, but it doesn't phase me.

  • People don't realize that Hole had an album before Courtney and Kurt were together.. Anyway, i always liked Hole and only ever met a couple of people who admitted to liking them. I still listen to them and have all the albums. I do like Nirvana as well

  • Theres no D in garbage.

  • Wasn't there talk somewhere that around the time POTI came out, MTV was doing an interview with Iggy Pop and asked him to pick a song to play and he chose this one? I might have dreamt it also hahaha

    I think one of the aspects for which Hole were greatly underappreciated (along with the AMAZING LYRICS..) was their visuals - they always had finely made videos accompanying the songs. This one, Violet, Doll Parts, Celebrity Skin - i'm serious, it's a shame

  • I love this song. I love how raw and edgy her voice is. Hole fucking rocks and Courtney Love is a great frontwoman. As for all the haters who bring up Cobain, I thought Hole were great BEFORE Cobain entered the picture as on evidence here!

  • i was listening to Garbadge man when the garbage truck came to pick up the trash and i was like oi DICKNAIL you forgot to take mine, so i chased after him in my BEST SUNDAY DRESS and he was like VIOLET with embarassment, so anyway he was like.. is that a used tampon in your bin? and i was like, yea, i used it twice and he said USE ONCE AND DESTROY and i was like SHEESH, okay, calm down, i'll use it once next time. i didnt think it was skanky using a tampon twice

  • Courtney Love is my queen of rock!

  • I think its interesting how Hole changes their sounds depending on who Courtney Hung around with at time

    Pretty on the Inside sounds very Sonic Youth- Kim Gordon was her producer. They were also SY fans.

    Live Through This sounds very Nirvana- she was married to Kurt

    Celebrity Skin has sounds more pop, prehaps because of Billy Corgan's influence.

  • I used to not like this song that much but now I love it

  • Did you know this video was only aired twice

  • This was the most amazing band....they reached me so deeply and I related on every level with the lyrics, the voice and the sound. It had as much to do with Eric as it did with Courtney. So everyone out there who thinks that Kurt wrote her music, SUCK IT.

  • @sugarstore69

    Yeah,every true fan,such as myself,knows that Courtney Love IS the song writer in Hole.

  • i fucking love courtney fucking love!!

     SHUT THE FUCK UP AND LOVE HER!!!

  • Thank you for spelling it the way it should be!

  • i love pretty on the inside it is the best album ever

  • She is my hero!!!!!

  • i want her vagina in bed next to me

  • i love hole and garbage man and courtney love

  • i love courtneys face it looks hot

  • i want to fuck courtneys vagina

  • i love courtney love so much

  • i love this song

  • i love hole

  • i love celebrity skin low its a awesome album

  • i like this song more then anything on celebrity skin

  • i love this song courtney looks so cute i want to lick her oh

  • My favorite Hole song. They were so great in the beginning.

  • It pisses me off how people say Hole was completely unknown when Courtney started dating Kurt, which, from european perspective, is utter bollocks. Check UK's indie charts. They were pretty big in the UK/Europe.

    And I can understand why, while listening to this song. I love early Hole to bits!

  • yup, classic Hole when there werent all GUYS in the band,, Courtney if youre reading this without Eric the band sucks and Ive seen ya live to proooooove it.

  • i loe this song and video and album and singer courtneys so hot

    I WANT COURTNEY'S VOICE AND TALENT

  • i want to fuck her face and suck on her breast y she sings this song

  • i love garbage man so much courtney is so pretty most people dont like it but i love it its the 2 best hole song the 1 is teenage whore garbage man sounds so 90s i love it god i miss the 1990s so much it was a good gen x

  • courtney looks so pretty garbage man is so cool courtney is so great looking

  • This album was ahead of it's time. A masterpiece.

  • classic, fuckin love courtney, shes amazin and sooo not afraid of doin n sayin what she thinks.

  • courtney love looks good i love the song more the anyone in the world

  • I learned to play this on geeeeee-tar!

  • courtney love is pretty

  • Hole<3

  • @danfredi You're just jealous, because Courtney is beautiful, talented, and famous.

  • @allsecretsknown ha ha, good joke, I like it!

  • @danfredi Whatever, obviously you just don't know talent! So, I'm done. :)

  • @danfredi yeah she married cobain for fame because when they first met she was more famous than he was ...

  • ♥♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ love♥this♥song♥forever♥

  • BEST song. one of teh best songs in her entire work of art. :))) love this grungyness..FEW FEMALES disappointly fail to bring in. psh! <3

  • I like this song and Hole's first two records. Fuck what everyone else thinks about that.

  • This is amazing, the best music video ever to be created.

  • One of Hole's best songs ever. I dont know why they never played it live after 1992. I read they also looked real hard to find the director who did it, some dude who did a Fleetwood Mac video This record was so underrated. I love Pretty On The Inside and Live Through This.

  • @fattymeats Hey tell me more. I/ve always wondered about the video and who helped them make it because i think it looks really cool

  • @bobbybobbinson It was some guy that Courtney had to track down in Colorado.. he did some Fleetwood Mac video and they wanted him to do it, thats all I know. If anyone has this song on video bootleg of Hole doing this song in 1993 with Kristen Pfaff, let me know I really want to hear the version with her and Patty Schemel playing

  • @fattymeats Weird. Thanks for the info!

  • / cult /

  • i just looked today and "Pretty on the inside" isnt on itunes any more WTF is there a reason for this HATE CRIME !!?!?!!

  • I think both nirvana and hole are great :)

    I just think all this arguing is plain stupid, why cant we just enjoy and listen to this awsome song?

  • This song is NOT "garbadge" man. It's "garbage man," like the guy who picks up your trash.

  • @andrewdancing It's spelled "Garbadge" on the CD.

  • @melfaery I just went to Amazon and it is spelled "Garbage Man" on their official song listing for this CD. Then looked at my CD and saw that in the hand-written song listing on the back of the CD the word "Garbadge Man" is scribbled. That is likely Courtney's hand-writing on the CD listing, and it's likely that she misspelled it on accident. When I entered this CD into my computer to rip it to my Media Player, it transferred the song as "Garbage Man." Interesting point, though.

  • @andrewdancing-- you're right, but the rest of the story is this: Courtney corrected her misspelling when the copyright was renewed in the early 2000s... however, i consider this just her being a revisionist. When I bought this album on vinyl in '91, whatever the hell someone scrawled on their handwritten liner notes was all there was to go on.

  • @synthetikboi It still says "Garbadge Man" on the CD liner notes. But when that CD is put in a computer, the listing of songs on my Windows music player lists the song as "Garbage Man." So, you basically get two different spellings of this song. Take your pick, I guess.

  • @andrewdancing I think it's a pun; like "badge" as in police with the concept of a garbage man.

  • @andrewdancing look on the record, it's spelled exactly GARBADGE MAN. Sorry andrewdancing....you are wrong. <3 clover.

  • @sugarstore69 as I mentioned before, it's spelled with a "d" on the artwork (which is Courtney's hand writing) and without one on the official track listing which shows up in your media player. Simply put, Courtney spelled it wrong -- likely on accident. Have you ever corresponded with her? I have. (Search for the video "Chanting for Courtney Love at Hillcrest juvenile hall in Salem Oregon") She is well known among fans to spell things wrong.

  • @andrewdancing I was a member of the old old old blog she had called kittyradio in the 90's, and yes I am well aware that she spelled things wrong. She is also a HUGE fan of double-entendre's and uses them quite frequently in her lyrics. I am a Hole fan from waaay back. So I'm inclined to disagree with you about the misspelling. Unless of course you heard it from her own mouth that she did it on accident then I think it was intentional. ;-)

  • @sugarstore69 That's the forum I was a member of too. We probably "knew" each other back then. All I can tell you is there are two different spellings on the CD. That's all I know. To be honest, not a major issue for me. :)

  • @andrewdancing I honestly am glad to meet other Hole fans, and I am fiercely protective of the fact they were AWESOME. Am currently debating with some other guy online about stupid shit I shouldn't have even commented on...(look up Hole's version on Unplugged of You Know You're Right) I just can't help posting in defense of Courtney. I'm a huge fan and have been for a long long time. I miss the kittyradio forum! I loved reading her posts on there!

  • i recommend petals, burn black, baby doll

  • Best hole song

  • shes amazing , giving u ur props Cort

  • yeah , i love old Hole , not a fan of the new stuff

  • this song is awesome. pretty on the inside is my fave hole album

  • This version is different than the album version...?

  • still the best Hole song of all time. BEST.

  • @opiumpoppy It realy is

  • this song reminds of the dark days of drugs depression and loneliness FUCK YEAH can't wait to see hole July

  • favorite hole song and i never even knew there was a video. bitchin

    many thanks to kurt for writing her albums

  • My favorite track off of Pretty On The Inside.

    Damn they don't make em like that anymore.

    Raunchy and loud... awesome. RIOT GRRRLS!

  • It sounds like a completely new vocal track was recorded for this video. Besides the obvious edit of a certain word, its sounds distinctly different from the album version.

  • @johnlovesbridge I'm with you--it's not like they just bleeped out the "fuck" in "where the fuck were you when my lights went out." She's singing the line differently.

  • i'll keep it simple: fucking amazing. live through this is obviously amazing, but my favorite hole sound was their first 2 singles and pretty on the inside.

  • Fuck Yeah

  • the last real female rockstar

    one of my favourite bands ever :)

    I LOVE YOU COURTNEY

  • great amazing song.

    her voice

    the lyrics

  • omg. memories!!!

  • didn't know this song has a video, which is awesome btw

  • I don't care what they say Caroline Rue had a big part in Hole's early sound. That girl could play some drums!!!!

  • I think this is one of there best songs. Pretty on the inside doesn't get enough credit for how good it is. All anyone gives a shit about is Live through this because it was released in 94 after Kurt died and he sang on the fourth track but its edited out on the album!

    I'm sick of people giving her stick! They can go suck a fat one!

  • live through this is their best record that's why. bleach is a good nirvana album and that gets overlooked because of nevermind but you don't hear me fucking bitching and complaining. relax!

  • @Ruddlebop88 Giving her "stick"? lolz

  • That wont be Hole...that will be just Courtney..I miss the old Hole and old Courtney, but we cant stop the time or turn it back :/

  • @openskyopenether i totally agree with you. I wasn't into her before, but then again when live through this came out i was 4... It's funny i knew she was a singer but didn't know about this. I just remember her being in the news for trouble with the law

  • nirvana retards? what are you talking about clown? don't call fans of a band retards because the only one here that sounds like a retard is you.

  • @Tigerlily21 Hey now I love Courtney as much as Kurt....no need to call Nirvana fans Retards....I think a couple people may agree with me....Kurt and Courtney Forever

  • @Tigerlily21 Although I guess I am a "Nirvana Retard" because I ritualistically listen to Nirvana and Hole\Courtney at almost all times of the day, I definately agree about the raw anguish in her voice...I love em both :-}

  • awesome!!

  • You know there's underground music nowadays too, right? Listen to some stuff by Pidgeon Religion, Divorce, Noe Venable... there are so many good bands out, I only named a few that are off the top of my head.

  • New Hole album's being released next year :)

  • It's not Hole without Eric. Quit kidding yourself.

  • lets just wait and see what the album is going to be like before assuming it's gonna be bad.

    yeah it'll sound different, doesn't mean it's not gonna be good.

  • I LOVE her.

  • i remember iggy pop requesting this video on an mtv appearance, about the time she forst started dating kurt and people were just becoming conscious of who she was. i remember iggy saying, 'she's a great-looking lady and her name reminds me of a porn star.'

  • He's got good tastes. This reminds me of the Stooges very much in spirit.

  • I remember seeing this one MTV's show120 minutes, believe it or not.

  • I remember that... She was sitting there with Kim Gordon when they premiered it...

  • that,s rock n roll,babe!emotions anger etc who cares about her voice !onesty !

  • <3 Love Love! Sexy voice! She is the Goddess! <3

  • if i know 1 thing it is that Courtney wouldn't want anyone's pity she kinda chose to act out. yeah her awful childhood had something to do with it but also she wanted to be rebellious. but i love this song & will always love courtney/hole

  • whai lol

  • she has amazing voice,and this video is really cool so dark i like it *_*

  • T_T Poor Courtney. She had a rough childhood, that's why she has always been writing these dark songs, screaming, doing drugs, acting like a prostitute, etc.

    Oh, and not to mention all the critisim she has been getting.

  • LOV THIS SONG

  • she is amazing always will be.

  • great song

  • With or Without a Doubt c'mon and let me out! i loved courtney more when she was young now she's wearing fashion models clothing *sigh* nothing makes sense

  • shes been wearing "fashion model" clothes since 1995 its 2009 now. haha its nothing new. And grunge was a fashion.

  • Yeah but it wasn't originally.

  • Love this song,!

  • Sorry but this isn't Kurt Cobain. This is Hole.

    courtney is the best, She has an unique voice. She really knows how to express feeling in her songs.... she's really good at it. Love it!

  • brilliant song, love courtney's screams (:
