At the 1 min mark onwards in this trailer... the strings sound epic, still a monster of a song too.

 

I missed this acoustic version of "Mother."

I mean for Courtney Love in 2020, it sounds fantastic. I know her voice has suffered a lot in recent years, but it works here. It's actually emotional, especially when you consider how lucky we are to even have her here.

 

Sounds very 'America's Sweetheart' vocal.

 

Nice interview with Courtney in the NME today.

Key takeout: she seems to be into making music again - the solo album is coming along nicely, and she leaves the door open to more Hole at some point.

Fuck me, but Malibu was that moment.

 

Me to me after buying the Malibu CD single for £3.99 from Virgin Megastore:

Spoiler

 

One of the most perfect songs of the 90s for me. Fiery, devastating, and perfectly produced.

'I can't be near you, the light just radiates...'

Great interview! Thanks!

 

Still waiting on the Hole box set that Eric has been working on for years now...

 

The Celebrity Skin era b-sides are being done a massive disrespect by not being on a deluxe edition by now. "Drag" and "Best Sunday Dress" deserve more love.

How long have we been waiting on the Courtney autobiography now?

 

She signed the deal in 2011 I think, with an early 2014 release date so...

From the Celebrity Skin era I love this cover:
