Hole’s most commercially successful single, being the only one to reach #1 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart. The lyrics contain references to Dante Gabriel Rossetti’s poem “A Superscription”, and Shakespeare’s “Merchant of Venice,” as well as the song sharing the name of an American pornographic magazine. It is co-written by Billy Corgan.

RyanIsVacant is right about them being in love, but she was in Japan when he shot himself, and if you read Kurt's(or as he spelled his name in them, Kurdt) journals you can see that suicide was totally justified to him. I'm about to be 18, and I look at all my generation talking about the whole thing like they weren't shitting their pants at that age, like they really comprehended it, and it pisses me off. I was like 2 or 3, and now I have done my research and watched the court tapes, and now do I know that she was waved as a suspect just a wee bit into the investigation. People: do your research, be real fans. I've been wearin' Nirvana concert T's and Osh-Kosh denim overalls since birth(I have the baby photos), and his saga was fed to me in a sippy-cup, I know there are others like me, and I salute thee. - Jonny, Out.

People should shut up about Courtney killing Kurt. At first I thought maybe she did, but if you look at pictures of them together you could tell they were really in love and that changed my opinion.

tryxee - you and sp1984 are not alone with this theory. I've thought this for years too. Watch a documentary called Kurt and Courtney. There's a bloke on there that states that she paid him $50k to kill Kurt. The man died not long after filming... he was hit by a train. Hmmmm... Courtney also tried (obviously) -and failed - to have this banned before it was released. Good to see Frances Bean has been taken to the family members who actually care about her, namely Kurt's mother and sister.
