MUSIC THAT MATTERS – “Lyric of the Day”

(Music Cut 1 — opening riff of “Heart-Shaped Box”)

The day after Valentine’s Day, 1994
this song was moving up the charts.

Nirvana and their

“Heart-Shaped Box.”

(Music Cut 2 — verse settles in)

Kurt Cobain was exhausted
by how the media portrayed him —
as a grumpy, ungrateful rock star.

So originally,
he titled this song
“New Complaint.”

(Music Cut 3 – “Hey, wait – I have a new complaint.)

And in a haunting bit of history —

this became the last song
Nirvana ever performed live,
just weeks before Kurt Cobain’s death in April 1994.

(Final Song clip)

LYRIC OF THE DAY:
