Just found out what Heart Shaped Box was about

Post by BroSlinger »

I thought he was just getting a box of chocolates for Courtney for Valentine's day. And then singing a bunch of jibberish about body parts and shit.

But no. It's about vaginas. :hi5:

In Utero was one of two albums my dad actually destroyed, the other being Blood Sugar Sex Magic. "You are NOT listening to this shit in my house" he said as he removed the disc. In his defense, he did replace them with Jimi Hendrix and the Who albums... :idk:

The heart shaped box was only the tip of the iceberg.... I didn't know that John was into symbolism.
Once, when we were in San Francisco, John took me to a bar with upside down stools; the four legged kind and there were four in our group.
