Who Knew?! Songs With Surprising Meanings Part 2
Nirvana – “Heart Shaped Box”
From hipsters to posers to gangsters, there’s a good amount of people who still like Kurt Cobain. Nirvana is still pretty relevant today, so when Lana Del Rey did a cover of this popular Nirvana song, she got a shock of a lifetime from Courtney Love.
Courtney Love, who was married to Kurt Cobain before his death, tweeted at Lana: “You know the song is about my Vagina right?”
Telltale lyrics: “Cut my hair on angel’s hair and baby’s breath / Broken hymen on your highness I’m left back / Throw down your umbilical cord so I can climb back in.”
So if you pick this song to sing for karaoke just know that you’re singing an ode to Courtney Love’s nether region.
