"Lovesick violinist grounds plane"
Please, could you tell me what this headline means?
Maybe it's easier than I think but I really can't get the point.
Thank you!

the plane was grounded means that the airport tower told the pilot that he could not take off.
The reason for this order not to depart was connected to a violinist who was sick with love for someone.

Much better than my explanation. I simply confused "grounded" with "forced to land" - I sometimes answer too quickly.
