Hole :: Doll Parts :: 1994
The subject matter of "Doll Parts" is love and rejection. Band leader Courtney Love penned the song in 1991 after meeting her future husband Kurt Cobain, and thinking he wasn't interested in her. The lyrics convey this 'He only loves those things because he loves to see them break... and someday you will ache like I ache.' It was first performed in concerts under the title of "Dissed" and featured entirely different lyrics. The song took on new, more tragic meaning after Cobain died, with Love giving anguished performances of the song on tour.
