Cobain forgot about the song for a while, but began working on it again when he and his wife, Courtney Love, moved to a house in the Hollywood Hills. In a 1994 Rolling Stone interview, Love said she overheard him working on the song's riff in a closet. She said she asked him if she could use the riff for one of her songs, to which he replied, \"F++k you!\" and closed the closet door. \"He was trying to be so sneaky\", said Love. \"I could hear that one from downstairs.\"", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
