No Picture KING KEVIN Average	#4 by KING KEVIN BLAIR at Nov 22, 1989 at 8:49 PM EST
	i agree with zeroglitter. thats a cool name, by the way. like the record companies, or whomever, take their innocence and then screw them over, and then they become apathetic, bored, and cynical...and rightfully so.

No Picture -Jessica- Average	#5 by -Jessica- at Sep 8, 1996 at 2:40 AM EST
	yep about nirvana being sold out and kurt not being happy with that?? i guess...

No Picture Herold Wanna Be	#6 by Herold Beddingfield at Jan 12, 1997 at 11:59 AM EST
	It's about over-commercialisation of music (hence the 'mall' reference) and how greedy record company execs take music and dehumanise what it stands for. I mean, you only have to look at how Smells Like Teen Spirit has become an almost corny corporate logo for misguided teens (thanks to the media) to see what Love is talking about here. She's saying that these bands and these songs used to be REAL and actually mean things to people, but the over-use of them has meant they've become empty and meaningless.

No Picture Mike Lead Player	#7 by Mike Adams at May 29, 1998 at 12:01 PM EST
	ilikefood, malibu was referring to the Hole lyric in 'reasons to be beautiful' (where courtney says "rise", not "burn out")... why do you have to be so rude on this forum???

No Picture bootsy's Average	#8 by bootsy's lovechili at May 31, 1998 at 10:00 PM EST
	I think think she's saying that he killed himself before he could sell out but it didn't matter because the media sold him out.

No Picture Adam Average	#9 by Adam Favro at Jan 10, 2003 at 1:22 PM EST
	I love Courtney Love, and i love Kurt Cobain - and altho I think he was incredibly talented, beautiful and had 2 put up with incredible sh**, he shouldn't ever have killed himself. it makes suicide look 2 attractive 2 teenagers. its a great song tho... and blatantly about kurt. Rock In Peace.

No Picture beast Average	#10 by beast at Feb 14, 2003 at 4:50 PM EST
	why the hell is every song she sings automaticlly about kurt ?!

No Picture Ian Average	#11 by Ian at Aug 20, 2005 at 6:25 AM EST
	People keep telling me that this song is about how Hole thinks that they are better than Nirvana but that's obviously that's untrue. but it's about how in '98 all these new bands starting coming out and all the old bands starting selling out (pearl jam's yield, mariyn manson's mechanical animals; i could go on forever) and how the record industry sold them out to become that. listening to the actual song makes you think that courtney is actually yelling at dave (grohl) because it's so up front (which is rare on celebrity skin) and she says stuff that she always says in public to him.. ps. if you play any hole song live, you have to play this song, (i play bass) and its so fun and if you see anyone in the audience that you hate you just point at them and scream the lyrics at the, :-)
