This may be a naive question, but since first learning homology I considered it as a tool which counts appropriate holes in your space (on top of orientation and torsion phenomena). Then I was introduced to homology of groups and now Floer/Morse homologies. Do these homologies still count "holes" in some fashion?
In the case of group homology, $H_\ast(G)\cong H_\ast(BG)$, so we can view this homology as a count of holes in the Milnor construction (CW-complex assembled from points in the discrete group with the group structure).
In Floer homology we're counting holomorphic curves (flow-lines in Morse homology), but it isn't viewed as having these curves "wrap around holes", so I am not sure if this hole-detecting view of homology breaks down.

[[Edit]]: In light of Andy Putman's remark, I will try to narrow down my question. Are there instances where I can treat $HF_\ast$ as $H_\ast$ of a particular space.
