Starbelly your theory is so right and is so awesome. This song is so great and it was the first song my band, The Idol Whores,performed.

This song, along with Pretty On The Inside, Miss World, Seether, (By Veruca Salt, check it out it's a good one) Doll Parts, Teenage Whore, and many others inspired me to learn to play guitar, and to stop trying to sound like Amy Lee when I sing. I learned that my real, edgier, less prissy voice could be just as beautiful from Courtney and the comrades. So THANK YOU COURTNEY, KAT BJELLAND, MELISSA AUF DER MAUR, and most of all, KURT COBAIN!!!
Mwah! Grunge will never die, you cannot kill what you did not create.

Um I don't really know what it's really about, maybe you're right, I don't know, but anyways I like the lyrics and the comparisons
And besides the lyrics, the music is so cool, it's always stuck in my head and she has a great voice

i've no idea of the background of the song, but it seems to me she might be talking about that very boy thing to do (i'm a boy so i know!), to really be mad about a girl, pursuing her etc, but then, when you get her, losing the thrill. the thrill is sometimes in the chase. maybe that's how someone made her feel.
as for the colour-could violet be a distorted/lesser red (red being the colour of love)? i.e. it wasn't REAL passion, or REAL love.

i thought this was about Billy Corgan....i read somewhere he sent Courtney a letter saying "well you've got what you want, but will you ever want it again?", and this song was meant to be a kind of reply. I'm sure the pumpkins did a song about her actually along a similar line....

i abousulutly love this song it is so beautifully crafted with the rhythm and the lyrics maybe refer to kurt im not shure . but maybe "go on take everything"ment that she felt like she was gettting verything taken away from her with the murder theories and about kurt even the murder theory is very complelling inits own world .but anyway back to the topic courtney love is my role model so kurt cobain i owe them everythign they inspired me to play guitar (along with babes in toyland and many more)courtney loves voice is so raw in this song she hits everynote with such force its incredulous.me and my band."pretty girls like vinly" we played this song and we hope to do a cover of it . its simply to make a long story short FUCKING RADICAL MAN

That's an interesting theory, but I don't think everything Courtney Love does or sings about is related to Kurt. I think the song is about people that lust after something, and then when they get it, the novelty wears out instantly, or over a period of time. It's an amazing song and Courtney's voice is so passionate and beautiful., and I think everyone should just appreciate Courtney's music rather than disliking her because they think she fucked Kurt up. If you read the biography, Kurt got Courtney into drugs. Her music is great, and if you disliker her music because you dislike her than you're really ignorant. And we ALL know that Kurt Cobain just faked his death so he could join the Mafia... GOD! Anyway, love the song, and hope you all like it to.
