My Hero: This song is almost certainly about Kurt Cobain. 'There goes my
hero, he's ordinary'. Kurt was like a hero to Dave but he was also ordinary
because he knew him. It also says 'too alarming now to talk about....
(kurt's death) take your pictures down (like after someone dies)' and 'kudos
my hero, leaving all the best (kurt left his legacy)'.

How I miss You: This song is almost certainly about Kurt Cobain. He
obviously misses Kurt and so wrote a song about him, it was very soon after
Kurt's death when this was released so it is not suprising that this is
about Kurt.

Friend of A Friend: This song is almost certainly about Kurt Cobain. 'he
thinks he drinks too much' (kurt's addiction to cough syrup) 'He's never
been in love' (kurt's dead-end marriage to Courtney) 'He says
'Nevermind'.....and no-one speaks' (kurt suggests the title of their new
album and Krist and Dave are dumbfounded)

Everlong: This song is almost certainly about Kurt Cobain. He wonders, as he
sings along with Kurt (during Nirvana jamming sessions), if everything would
feel this real forever..if anything would ever be this good again. He also
invites Kurt to come down and waste away with him (heroin reference)

February Stars: This song is almost certainly about Kurt Cobain. Kurt's
birthday was in February, and he was a star.

I'll Stick Around: This song is almost certainly about Kurt Cobain. Kurt
will always 'stick around' and be with him in spirit. But of course, Dave
doesn't owe him anything (refering to Nirvana's arguments over money).

Walking After You: This song is almost certainly about Kurt Cobain, because
it is sad and Kurt is dead and Dave is sad about Kurt being dead, you do the
math.

Doll: This song is almost certainly about Kurt Cobain. 'Doll' was Pat
Smear's pet name for Kurt.

Monkey Wrench: This song is almost certainly about Kurt Cobain. Kurt chose
the picture of the monkey on the back of Nevermind. And Courtney is a wench.
Hence, 'Monkey Wench'. But the name 'monkey wrench' was a typo.

My Poor Brain: This song is almost certainly about Kurt Cobain. It is
written from Kurt's point of view, quite clearly Kurt's brain bore the brunt
of the shotgun shell hence it is 'poor'. Kurt feels sorry for his brain.

Stacked Actors: This song is about Courtney Love.

Umm... you are reading WAY too much into the lyrics. Most of those songs are
not about Kurt, and that's a fact.

Kurt one time.

Well, at least not ALL of Dave's songs were about Kurt.

No, no, you've got it all wrong! *Kurt* wrote all his songs about
*Dave*!

"All Apologies" was Kurt's apology to Dave for killing himself and
ruining Dave's spot in the limelight as Nirvana's drummer.

"Rape Me" was an inside joke between Kurt and Dave about the time Kurt
showed up for a gig all jacked up and wearing a frilly, flowery dress,
and Dave said, "What, do you expect me to rape you now?"

"Smells Like Teen Spirit" was a reference to Dave's preference for
wearing the short-lived deodorant. Kurt was somewhat impressed, but
also somewhat annoyed at the way Dave smelled so flowery and *he*
smelled kind of nasty. But hey, that's punk ethics for ya.

"In Bloom" was how he admired Dave's eternal pubescent look, and how
much he wished he could have railed his ass as a teenager. (Kurt was
very high at the time.)

"Lithium" was another inside joke between Kurt and Dave, about the
time Kurt showed up for a gig all jacked up and wearing a frilly,
flowery dress. Kurt started bitching at Dave for smelling better than
he did, but his mood suddenly swung to a manic euphoria when Krist
belched in the background. Dave said, "Jesus Christ, man, should I
get you some fucking lithium?"

"Heart-Shaped Box" was about this little locket Dave wore around his
neck with a picture of Butch Vig in one half, and Danny DeVito in the
other half. Nobody really understands why.

"Know Your Rights" is yet another inside joke between the two merry
pranksters, about the time Kurt showed up for a gig all jacked up and
wearing a shirt that read, "FUK EVERYTHING". This gig was in Salt
Lake City, not known for its liberal attitudes toward things, and the
police showed up to haul his punk-ethic ass off for a cold night in
the cold slammer on charges of disturbing the peace. Dave yelled
mockingly at him, on the way out, "Hey, you better know your rights!"

I could go on for hours, but it's all really very obvious if you think
about it. :)

"We should take all drugs developed with taxpayer dollars --
that includes most AIDS drugs, on which the drug companies
are getting windfall profits -- and put price restraints on
them. And instead of giving a monopoly on these drugs to
just one company, multiple licenses should be issued to any
company that wants to sell them. That would create com-
petition and bring down prices. If there’s any opposition
by the drug companies to this, government should say to them,
'If you’re going to engage in profiteering, we’ll make them
ourselves -- and more cheaply than you.'" - Ralph Nader

I sort of see it as saying, "You left, but I'm sticking around."

Isn't there another Foo Fighters song alledgedy about Courtney?

The song was written in late '89 (I'm guessing September/October) when
Nirvana were playing a bunch of shows in the UK. In order to "get
hip" with the crowd there, they (or Kurt, rather) sang with what they
thought was a british accent, and that's why "Dave" is sounding like
"Dive".

You can even hear it in "the first Nirvana song", "Spank Thru". Kurt
is clearly singing "I've been looking for Dave Grohl". The song deals
with the fact that they could never find Dave when they needed him the
most (such as when they jammed, played shows or were recording in a
studio). I could also go on for hours, but really, some things are so
clear that I shouldn't have to tell you.

Hahahahahahahah!!!!!!!!! For YEARS I have been jokingly saying that that's what
he's singing. My reasoning was that Kurt was psychic, you see, and knew that
what the band sorely needed to achieve world wide fame was Dave Grohl.
What's funny is that the line really DOES sound like that, particularly in the
Muddy Banks version, which Dave played on. So I have to wonder if, in that
version at least, or occasionally, Kurt changed the words to "I've been
looking for Dave Grohl"? He had to have known it sounded like that...
