Heaven Tonight

yeah britneylove is right - courtney said in an interview she walked in to the studio one day and told the band that they "werent going home until i have a song i can play to my daughter". eric then proceeded to write the music in about 45 minutes. this song makes me so happy evry time i hear it. its just one of those perfect feel-good songs. not realy sure of the exact subject matter - but a little clue for everyone...STOP THINKING EVERY HOLE SONG IS ABOUT KURT. sorry had to get that off my chest.

This song makes my "spirit" feel free, like i just want to run away and run through a golden field... it makes me want to fall asleep and never wake up again.

i've also heard that rumour about this song as well. it's about a girl driving down the pacific coast highway on the way to losing her virginity (to her love) but dies in an accident before she can reach him. i read it on a review a couple of months ago, and have also heard it from several other (non-official) sources (does anyone know if the meaning is written by a band member on a cd-sleeve or anything like that?). regardless, i think you can see it from that perspective (i'll give 'it' to you tonight) as well as simply a song about love and the innocent almost child-like happiness it invokes. although the tune is chirpy and cheerful, whenever i think about the former meaning of the song i do feel a little sad. so it's almost a bittersweet feeling.

its a sad pretty song about being happy and innocent and loving someone

hey some of these lyrics are wrong, like the first line is "here comes the sun in the form of a girl" and its "in the summer rain" not summer's end , and instead of "i dont know why" its "out on the winding road" and some other little changes

well i heard this song was written for frances at the last minute so she could have a song to sing to her, maybe it secretly means somethinga bout kurt, and then i also heard it was written for drew barrymore, her friend, its on one of drews movies..never been kissed i think or something like that.im not for sure which one.

I'm not sure which this is about, Kurt or Frances. It could be about both. Maybe it's about how she is finally learning to live without Kurt because Frances helps her to live again.

I can't remember where I heard this, but apparently it's based on the idea of a young girl who's decided she's ready to lose her virginity, but dies before she has a chance.

But I also think it could be about Frances, and Courtney telling her that as long as they have each other then things will always be in 'heaven'.

A really beautiful song, regardless of its subject.

This is about love and how you will go to heaven tonight metaphorically speaking just enjoying love. It is about fresh, innocent, wild love. This one of the most cheerful Hole songs, threre is no theme of death mixed in with that of love. This a very pop Hole song, with barely any rock or grunge in it. My favorite line of this song is ''Summer will come again, I can be happy''. It is winter, either real Winter or just a winter of the mind. This love with make that summer be happy, or perhaps will even make that summer happen. This song reminds me of a November night when I believed that ''Summer will come again, I can be happy''. That November night had nothing to do with love, it was just that I was really cheered up by someone from the depths of depression. It is amazing what kind words can do. The abandon of young love fills this song. My brother who hates Hole likes this song. Thiat says a lot for the appeal of this song.

How disgusting that a man (Courtney had a sex change, there is viable proof) claimed to be married to this icon, after they (the COG cult) murdered him in 1990. Geffen (and his boyfriend Pitt, who was snogging Love too) helped "it" steal Cobain's songs and record them with her group. It is a mockery of talent and goodness. Courtney Love, your life is in ruins and soon you will be dead. As will everyone involved in the sacrafice of Kurt Cobain.
