Samantha

in a uk interview, love said samantha was a prostitute, hence "Leave your money by the bed In the gutter where you live" but in reality, it could have been love insulting this girl she detests further by calling her a whore on national tv. then again, im sure in courntey's fall she would have been hanging around people like that in the streets during a drug addiciton and would have been fucked over a lot.

In another interview Courtney stated that she is not sure who "Samantha" is, and that is may very well be her and how she sees herself sometimes. However, when Love writes music she stated that she sometimes personifies the protagonist of the song - she further stated that it was similar to Stevie Nicks' Rhiannon.

About a girl that loved her Brother and Mother, a Mother that was hooked on Heroin and Cocaine that had 4 kids. The first one to be giving away, ask of the father the mother would say a mistake a sin i will pay for this one was the icon i gave away... The second not long after the first A lost soul with a family and a dad of fame in one hand and a Dad of mystery in the other??? Hooked on heroin young in life with cocaine, speed and pills with this he dies before his time. He lived a good life a fight till the end for love and understanding from a good friend. Along comes the third a girl so blond with daddy on coke and mommy spoon in hand of heroin. Born, of foul creation Born, of sour milk Coke and filth Samantha with kids of her own most of time she is in jail and working the escort papers to pay for speed. With a hunger for money Watch her wrap her legs around this world. A girl sad over her brother dying while she was in Jail So you think that you could save him And we know that someone died Oh, an unkindness of ravens And we know that Mary lied the mother of the 4 kids so many lies... So dare she speak out Samantha you swore You never turned that trick before Keep waiting for a war You'll never win You'll lose again So dare she speak out And if you were on fire I would just throw kerosene Cause I love so much I hate And I hate what you have seen in me Lets not for get the 4th a boy in jail always in jail not much to speak of...

That's alot of posts, there. Hehe.

My sentiments is that it is a song about Kristen Pfaff and what she (Love) truly thinks / feels about her. She was crazy jealous and pissed Kurt and Kristian got along so well. She hooked her on heroin. She's quoted saying don't F with me. She's quoted saying what about your gf that died referring to Kristian? and in and on if you do your due diligence. Frame it with this perspective and listen to the gutteral lyrics and how she States she loves so much she hates... Doesn't it all add up like a criminal making a sideways confession ? Her singing is realistic, genuine, and authentic because she knows what she's singing about and she's still pissed !!! Or maybe not... what do you think those that know the available facts around Kristian's death ??? It struck me today after listening to this song for years off and on... but today watching a few documentaries on the topic of Pfaff's death...well, it speaks for itself... does it not ? Praying for their souls... ALL.

I listened to this song in the car with my mom the other day... "People like you fuck people like me" Boy, that was a long trip... XP Great song anyway though. :)
