I didn't appreciate this cover and the distorted vocals until I sorta broke up with a guy I adore who has pale blue eyes. The way she screamed out "pale blue eyes" just was the perfect accompanient to my pain. and now I love this cover.

This song means a lot to me. It reminds me of someone who i used to love, and who used to love me. He had blue eyes...and everything Courtney sings about seems relevant. I have a relationship with someone else now and some of the lines still apply to me. I love it when you can relate to songs. I didn't know this was a cover but i love the words.

yes this is a Velvet Underground cover meaning that courtney did not create it, except change some of the words. im learning this song in my voice lessons and i know it on guitar and everytime i get fucking tears in my eyes. because i love(d?) someone who has pale(?) blue eyes and i thought of this song as just forgeting about them completely and suicide sometimes. nice cover, but it can get annoying. VU version is nice though. Linger on, your pale blue eyes Kurt 1
