It was in the UK but it never got officially released in the States. The more widely-circulated one is the cut from the Live Through This sessions which has different lyrics and a slightly different chord progression-a lot slower and more funereal. The Unplugged version is probably the most well-known though. I honestly yprefer this version--the lyrics and the images she evokes in it are way more interesting.
Yes, there is an official release of it, the single is called ' 'Beautiful Son ' ' . If you have it read the back of it and see where it was produced at, and the year. Hole was in the UK at the time. ( Owner of the CD & Vinyl )
My fourth favorite original version of this song!! "its ok to kill your idols, just pretend you have no rials" sup dude lifes been hard so I decided to move to Seattle in September to study Web dev, this way will compete the festering and control of the fat cats. To provide accurate lyrics and chord progression as well as tabs for all future musicians to get a head start and be inspired.
Who was she speaking to in the lyrics to this song? At first I thought it was Billy, since most all the songs she wrote during this time were about him and their breakup. But the "go back to rehab" line would not fit, as he never had substance abuse issues.
Novelselic is butthurt that he’s not getting royalties for this song because it’s a half-written and played Kurt song, therefore a Nirvana song, therefore Khrist should be receiving royalties for it. Yeah. Seeing as how Courtney and Kurt lived together as lovers, both had there own very successful rock bands there was a lot of creative mixing, like perhaps Kurt has a song that is half written he’s got some of the music a title but no words. Courtney picks up her guitar and fleshes it out with some great lyrics. And either one or both say “hey that should be a B-side for Holes’ next single” and they both agree, no big deal. God or Khrist or the devil is not involved creatively or even in the writing of coattails. It’s a Whole song now stop your crying and deal!
Yes, I think Courtney reworked the lyrics though because I don't think there ever was a lyric sheet so she likely did what most of us did with Kurt's words... let the mystery create lyrics in our own way.
Kurts version>>>> Call me an asshole, idgaf Courntey didn't have any involvement in the writing of this song, as the early kurt demo was in early 91, and kurt didnt actually meet courtney until october 91 (even billy corgan confirmed this)
@@carlyanne8428 No they didn't, theres demos of this song before he even met Courtney. He wrote the music and gave her the song to which she added her own lyrics.
She manage to butcher several of his (Kurt Cobain) songs, I unfortunately saw Hole play live. I can say with the most honest opinion… Worst $35 I’ve ever spent.🤷🏼♂️
It was not stolen....Kurt gave it to her as a gift...but I agree completely, yes, it is a total fail as a song. Kurt's original, even only half finished is completely brilliant. Courtney's version is very very poor.
@@riannadohertyy7246 Because I enjoyed Live Through This & Because I give things a fair hearing/viewing/reading, then I shape my opinion of the quality. Because Ioved the version Kurt wrote, I figured I'd give this a fair chance to see if i liked it as much. Which I did not. Would you prefer I *NOT* listen to it & just proclaim that "I have not heard it & it sucks!" "Live Through This" is an excellent album by Hole. I Think its great. "Celebrity Skin" is an average album. I think it's nowhere close to "Live Through This". For the same reason I listened to Live Through This & Celebrity Skin I listened to this. TO judge if it is something i like & will want to listen to again That is why I "bothered" to listen to it. Same as the reasons why all people listen to music...to see if it is something they will like/love that they can enjoy forever. It is not exactly complex.
Actually they wrote it between the two of them - Kurt gave it to Courtney and she reworked the lyrics. Don't know what you're trying to get at - he literally asked her to do what she wanted with it
It would just be very good without the horrible voice of Courtney Love, and if Kurt Cobain was the singer, with Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic Ah… it would just be the very good original version of this song, from Nirvana made on 1991😜 and not this shit…
Then why are you listening to it and bothered enough to comment this shit when you could listen to Kurt's version what you've said is practically irrelevant and useless to say the least don't be immature it's not a good look:)
How could anyone expect this woman to take Kurts beautiful melody and match him? Name one singer that could do it today!! I can think of one on the top of my head an it isn't love! I think Maynard James Keenan could or maybe Corey Taylor. But not like Kurt or as good....
Yeah, I'm sorry but Courtney made the song better. And then sang it to him on Hole's unplugged. Which is one of the most cathartic performances from the 90s.
I love how fresh this sounds, like she recorded it yesterday. Love.
Her lyrics, though, right? Best version, in my opinion. Xoxox❤❤❤
Definitely. Best rock singer, ever.
Love this song 😻 makes me realize I am no beauty queen but what the heck I can just stay in this group home
I'm from the UK and Seattle is legendary, I loved my grunge years and still visit them from time to time...always helps me cope with my angst.
Also from the UK. Quite envious of the bands who were able to be a part of the grunge movement.!
I also have this on a promo CD called "Grunge is dead" I picked up for a few cents around 1996 I think :)
Do you miss that era?
@@clay_freespirit Yes I do, I have to say.
Thanks for sharing, I’m going to have to find it now!
I had "courtney act". There were a few. All for sale at the local headshop/music store. $50 each. "Hole lotta love" was another.
@clay_freespiriit i know i do
Favourite hole ...late 40s...Courtney, Kirsten, Caroline and of course eric....BRISTOL BLEW MY HEAD XXX
very rare some pics in your video for me! love the audio and lyrics!
yessss I was so confused how all the other uploads on TH-cam sounded different. I have this version on vinyl c:
amo questa versione è bellissima Hole Forever
People are assholes...thanks for this rare version
sounds more similar to Kurts version.
Lyrics aren't
Kurt’s version is literally just mumbled non-sensical lyrics and a basic melody.
you can’t always go back to rehab.. :/
this is the best version
kurts version is better imo but this is still legendary!
I agree, this is the best version, especially lyrically.
Beautiful. "The"couple.
My favourite
Best version 💜
Yes, it's
Nirvana has the best version
@@jailbreak4814 kurt has the best version, by himself. Just him an acoustic
Worst version. She butchered this and you know your right. Kurt obviously wrote her best album
Better than Kurt’s version
Never shall I reach it.
Why is this a rare version? It was on an official release. #holefanproblems

It was on a single/B side in the US. Limited release. I didn’t know until the TH-cam that it was a ripped off multiply. Good stuff.
Kurt made the melody and Courtney gave it lyrics both versions are great

Old forgotten concubine
"Is that your best Eric, you want me to do a.."-Courtney.
Is no one gonna talk about that lol
She actually said "Was that too fast Eric?"
What a waste of sperm and eggs
Just falls off his family leg
You can’t always go back to rehab
its bambi legs... like baby deer x

kurt wrote this one,there’s a chance she’s singing it still talking about herself

cope and seethe
does anyone know if there’s a live version on TH-cam with this version?
hahahaha said everything ^ ^
🌹💖🙏💋☘🦅
cool channel name ... like name of band
Essa música é triste
The comments aren't disabled?
Why do you sound surprised at this?
Instrumentation is better than Kurt's... His lyrics were better though
cause you can actually understand what he is mumbling ?
Grace Johnson ya
Are you sure that it's Courtney's playing? I'm not actually. Those lyrics are kinda female lyrics, it's about girl feelings
That’s not her playing lol
@@gracejohnson3386 you’re talking about the Nevermind outtakes, the old age/bed of thorns demo actually had coherent lyrics
this song is from Nirvana or Hole? i confused
Kurt wrote it but Nirvana didn’t end up using it so he gave it to Courtney & Hole reworked it
Didnt kurt write this?
Yes, I think Courtney reworked the lyrics though because I don't think there ever was a lyric sheet so she likely did what most of us did with Kurt's words... let the mystery create lyrics in our own way.
@@caseycbenn beautiful choice of wording
It’s his melody but lyrics are hers
Aww, and now she is old!!
I wouldnt consider 54 old. When you reach 60 thats when you are considered "old" imho
Exactly, she’s talking to herself in the future as a sole survivor.
She once wrote prophet profit
@@Anthonybchannel 65 is when one collects social security in the U.S. and becomes eligible for senior citizen discounts. She has a few more years.
@@tree-huggersans-cur4371 wasn’t the intent of the original version of the song written by Kurt
everyone gets old ???
I know I’m going to get hate and I’m a fan of both but Courtney > Kurt
He literally wrote this song
She's racist, an ab&ser, transphobic, blamed r/p3 victims, homophobic, and more. How could you possibly prefer her? geez
Kurts version>>>>
Call me an asshole, idgaf
Courntey didn't have any involvement in the writing of this song, as the early kurt demo was in early 91, and kurt didnt actually meet courtney until october 91 (even billy corgan confirmed this)
Overall, Courtney butchered the whole song.
did Kristen write this?
The song was written by Kurt Cobain in 1991.
Sara Sharpe The song was written by Cobain. She altered a song written by someone else. That doesn’t mean you’re the songwriter lol
@Sara Sharpe I like both versions.
@@carlyanne8428 No they didn't, theres demos of this song before he even met Courtney. He wrote the music and gave her the song to which she added her own lyrics.

I can say with the most honest opinion…

This Is fucking Awful
I like it.
Man shut the hell up
This is Kurt’s song
It was not stolen....Kurt gave it to her as a gift...but I agree completely, yes, it is a total fail as a song.
Kurt's original, even only half finished is completely brilliant.
Courtney's version is very very poor.
Like several other songs he gifted her
@@ajevans4802 what songs?
Then why did you bother to listen to it?
@@riannadohertyy7246
Because I enjoyed Live Through This &

A fail?! I love it!
Hole is better than Nirvana, now stop talking about Nirvana here
Suck it. Nirvana is better.
Damn near clickbait this was an official release, ain’t nothing rare about it, thumbs down
It wasnt released in the states. It was only released in the UK. Its the lesser common version to the other version
this is kurt cobain songs
A song he let her use when he was alive, melody only lyrics are hers
Wow she really ruined an amazing song
This song is the perfect example of Love being a Scumbag. Stealing her husbands work. Classy.
Actually they wrote it between the two of them - Kurt gave it to Courtney and she reworked the lyrics. Don't know what you're trying to get at - he literally asked her to do what she wanted with it
If you want to talk about her “stealing” songs why don’t you go talk about “you’ve got no right”. This song isn’t stolen.
@@inmyrestlessdreams. Isn't it called "You know you're right"?
@@bludwigfam Nirvanas version is called that. When Courtney covered it she changed some lyrics and renamed it.
@@inmyrestlessdreams. Oh, i didn't know that.

JUST FUCK OFF
Yes! Love is no match to a wonderful melody by Kurt.
Yeah, I'm sorry but Courtney made the song better. And then sang it to him on Hole's unplugged. Which is one of the most cathartic performances from the 90s.
I think kurt would have respectfully disagreed with you considering he gave and reworked this version with courtney
