She deserves more hate than serial killers, child molesters, dictators, wife beaters, murderers (no she didn't as there isn't any proof), drunk drivers who kill people, Hitler, Pol Pot, rapists, etc. Do you see where I am going with this? I don't love her, and I don't hate her. I am quite honestly ambivalent about her. Until I watched this video, I hadn't thought about her in years, but apparently she lives in people's heads. I don't get it. She hasn't done anything to anyone in the KZfaq comments personally, but she gets all of the bandwagon hate. She hasn't even been in the news for years. She was clearly a drug addict and has borderline personality disorder. Anyone wonder if she had an abusive childhood? Kurt was a drug addict and was depressed. Do you think it was easy to be married to him? There are always two sides to a story. Dave Grohl wasn't in the marriage, so whatever he says doesn't matter. Men say things to other people all the time - like when they tell the other woman their marriage is basically over. So when Dave says Kurt said this, it doesn't make it true. In fact, it doesn't even mean Kurt said it at all. I get the impression Dave is more of a drama queen than Courtney. Sorry for the overly long rant, but geez, people, let it go. Move on. Courtney has.

Another good one is "Miracle Man" by Ozzy. For those who don't know, it's aimed at televangelist Jimmy Swaggart, who spent the better part of the 80s slandering rock music and especially Ozzy before being exposed as an adulterer.

"Silly Love Songs" by Paul McCartney One of the cheerier diss tracks in music history, this song was a direct response to comments from McCartney's former bandmate John Lennon, who derided McCartney's song "Yesterday" as nothing more than a silly love song. Paul decided to fire back in song, with the thesis of the entire song being 'So what? There's nothing wrong with love songs and I'm going to keep writing them.' And then that song became the highest-charting song of 1976.

"Go your own way" by Fleetwood Mac is Lynsey Buckingham taking a shot at Stevie Nicks after their break up. She's gone on record several times saying that she found the lyrics "Packing up. Shacking up is all you wanna do" very hurtful and disrespectful. She also says that she wrote the song "Dreams" as a counterpoint of sorts, acknowledging that things were bad at the time but she could see a day in the future were they would get past all the pain and hurt and be OK.
@CSXIV Жыл бұрын
Those songs are from Rumors, which is practically a whole album of insult songs. "Go your own way" wasn't the only "I hate you Stevie" song on that album, and Dreams wasn't the only "bite me Lindsey" song on that album (Gold Dust Woman is more biting in my opinion). "You make loving fun" is Christine telling John "my new bf is so much better then you," and The Chain is every member of the band screaming at each other. On the flip side, Don't Stop is "this drama will blow over eventually," which considering that Fleetwood Mac managed to stay together was kinda true.

A couple other rock diss tracks that come to mind Guns N Roses infamous “Get In the Ring” where Axl straight up rants for like a whole minute “Caught Like A Fly” by Falling In Reverse. A song where Ronnie Radke, after feeling betrayed by Max Green, mentions the abuse Max’s father gave him (“you have left my heart black and blue/just like your father did to you”), says that Max’s late grandfather would’ve been ashamed of him, addresses his drug addictions, and tells Max that when he dies, he will be smiling and will have sex with his girl. Funny enough, Ronnie and Max buried the hatchet later on and Max played bass for Falling In Reverse for a while years later. “Life Lessons Learned The Hard Way” by A Day To Remember is a very scathing diss aimed at Hunter Moore that heavily implies that the band members of ADTR at one point parked a van out by his hotel garage with the intentions of beating the shit out of Hunter with a tire iron. “Coattails of a Dead Man” by Primus hasn’t been outright stated, but seems very heavily implied to be about……Courtney Love, of course “Starfuckers Inc” by Nine Inch Nails, also aimed at…..Courtney Love! (And Marilyn Manson) “Aesthetics of Hate” by Machine Head is a very brutal tirade against a journalist/music critic who said disgusting and disrespectful things about Dimebag Darrel after he was killed

I think you should." -"Insane, should be put inside." All this on the opening song of Night at the Opera, the album that, by most accounts, is Queen's masterpiece.

For all the difficulties she may or may not have been a part of and the struggles after, one is never left feeling like Yoko Ono doesn't truly care about John or his legacy and she's made strides to not destroy completely relationships with the other Beatles. I honestly don't think that I can feel Courtney Love even truly cares about Nirvana or Kurt's legacy. She cares about being noticed as part of it.

One interesting note about 'Bye Bye Beautiful'- Nightwish were aware of the danger of having Annette sing an attack song about Tarja, so she doesn't. The vocals alternate between Marko and Annette, and all Annette's lines are very abstract and deal with the subject only very loosely, whereas Marko sings all the lines that are obviously a direct attack on Tarja's perceived actions and attitude. Of course Annette herself would go on to leave in acrimonious circumstances, though exactly who was truly to blame for that is debatable.

@@mkjk1564 Speaking about what the song is about, Pantera's drummer Vinnie Paul said: "The story behind this song is we were opening for Megadeth, and there was a guy that was flipping us off the whole show and so we stopped the show. And I was like, 'Listen, in case you haven't noticed there's 18,000 people who really dig what we're doing. You're the only one doing that stupid shit without even having to egg the crowd on.' Ten guys just jumped the guy and beat the shit out of him. His dad called the manager after all the lawsuits and this and that, and basically said, 'Give me five minutes with that Phil Anselmo guy. I want to whup his ass.' "[1] Pantera's vocalist Phil Anselmo spoke about what the song is about saying: "There are always gold-diggers out there. The way I remember it was there was this kid that swore that I jumped off the stage and beat him up. Well, that was bullshit. That did not happen at all. When the father asked for five minutes alone with me, our manager responded aptly and perfectly: 'No, you don't.' [Laughs] 'I really doubt that,' and basically hung up on the guy. But once that story was conveyed to me, it actually made me angry because it wasn't fucking true. I basically plucked out those words from my agitator's mouth and yeah, man, 'five minutes alone,' fucking bring it."[1]

Alestorm once went on tour with Gravedigger, and the two bands hated each other. In one interview, Chris Boltendahl -- the lead singer of Gravedigger -- called Alestorm a "rumpelkombo". As far as anyone can tell, he made up the German word to describe Alestorm as a bunch of clowns. So Alestorm wrote a song called "Rumpelkombo". It's only two seconds long, comprised of a brief keytar riff and shouting "Rumpelkombo!" And Boltendahl was credited as a writer on "Rumpelkombo", meaning Boltendahl was entitled to royalties every time that song is played in recording or in concert. The amount of the royalties depends on the length of the song, and the song is literally two seconds long. The upshot is that Alestorm plays "Rumpelkombo" in literally every single one of their concerts. And every time they do, they send Gravedigger a royalty check worth less than the paper it's printed on. That's some god-tier trolling right there.

Neil later admitted that “I don’t like my words when I listen to it. They are accusatory and condescending, not fully thought out, and too easy to misconstrue.”
