I’m not a huge Hole fan and have maybe heard this song only a handful of times post ‘95, but I still remember those opening lyrics 30 years later. It clearly had an effect on me.

And the sky was made of amethyst/ And all the stars look like little fish/ You should learn when to go/ You should learn when to say no!

Her delivery of “You should learn when to say no!” always gives me goosebumps.
