  • Foo Fighters..YEAHHHHHHHHHH

  • Pat smear is the best guitarist of all time! Eddie van halen who? Jake e lee what? George lynch? yeah right! NOBODY is better That mr pat smear!

  • " Re-freezz sucker head from sucker day..."

  • Best grunge band ever :)

  • Love Dave Ghrol, Just another Ohio Boy like me!!! Yes he was origianally from Warren Ohio not Seattle!!! So dont get all pissy with me its a fact.

  • @MrTwatmasterfleX I'm from cool part of Ohio N.E.. it changed then and sucks like COlumbus,, Akron and Cleve is Okayyy. I left that state, I can only take Ohio by doses,, few day stay at the most to visit. Great bands and artists came out of N.E. part of the state.. Warren 30 miles east of the Akron. Marlyn Manson from south of Akron in Canton.. Devo, Black Keys, Pretenders,, Akron..NIN from Cleve.. I hope I will be archived too.if I go national.

  • Love the Foo Fighters but Dave Grohl looks like a male version of Sarah Silverman when hes was in his younger years. Not so much anymore. I know Im prob gunna get crucified for that statement but whatever

  • Comment removed

  • He doesn't owe that tentacle meatball anything.

  • Love this song.. and mtv does equal shit these days.

  • Hey Just want take this opportunity to have a bit of an open forum. I love DG and the foos but even after they have put out heaps of albums I still think their 95 self titled is the best. Maybe i'm biased because I'm a bigger nirvana fan than foo but i wanted to ask everyone out there what they thought. New foo better than old or vicsa versa?

  • @nirvjam121

    I would definetly say that they have evolved.......personally my favorite album in In your Honor, I'm just thankful that bands like them are around to appreciate.

  • @nirvjam121 personally i like their new stuff just as good because i feel like they are more mature and have evolved as musicians thats just me though...and i am a HUGE Foo fan btw but I like their new stuff better right now because its new and fresh haha

  • DAMN!!!

  • also noted he kinda looks like he could be Tom Petty's twin just different hair color...you know he does especially without the stache...he's still hot!

  • I fuggin love this song...Dave is the mutha-fuggin MAN!!!! and he's freaking hot here...(still is) sexcellent!

  • I havent heard this song in ages. Still a great fucking song.

  • their first single and their 5th best song

  • @justinorr1700 their first single was 'this is a call'

  • @starsweet4 actually it was exhuasted but it never charted

  • @valeo1993 thanks, i never knew that (confirmed on wikipedia)

  • dvae grohl is fine :)

  • Yeah man, Dave doesn't owe that Spore ANYTHING!!!!

  • open forum question ...maybe i feel this way cause im a huge nirvana fan but wasnt this first foo album the best...

  • Dave Grohl.

  • damn my speakers are all the way up but it still needs to be louder to enjoy the awesome of this song. damn you limited spekers! i need to see them live.

  • this is a total must-crank!

  • Man that first album is goooood!

  • My favorite foo fighter song, wish they had more like this...

  • dave looks so much younger here...

  • Thei best song.

    ROCK ON!

  • Definatley one of their best songs!

  • I really love this video!!!

  • Some time after the album's release, Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl confirmed that was song was indeed written about Love in an exclusive interview with Mojo magazine.

  • Way to quote word for word from Wikipedia

  • @billymert

    Actually, this was written by Dave Grohl, and it's about Courtney Love.

  • this is one of the best Foo Fighters songs of all time

  • yes

  • it was written by kurt cobain

  • Very good song

  • sounds like nirvana

  • very nirvanaish

  • haha thats exactly what i said lol

  • is this about Courtney Love?

  • @birdy47 I'm pretty sure it's about Courtney. She's a stupid bitch and will never hold a candle to Kurt or Dave!

  • yes it is

  • Yes. The blob is supposed to be Courtney. I do have a source for this but.. I do not want to burn any bridges... and my source is excellent.

  • Ahhhh, it's The Langoliers!

  • nice. i think i still have this cassette laying around somewhere...lol. fuckin' love these guys! they put on such an awesome live show.

  • foo fighters are the shit!!!!

  • I forgot mainstream music used to be good

  • Fuck you MTV. Play some Foo Fighter's.

  • Check out some of my songs. I miss stuff like this old school Foo Fighters. Fuck Lady CACA, Rhianna, and all that pop shit. They can do what they want but I WANT TO BURN THEIR MUSIC.

  • @Alluskillus ohhhhhhhhhhhh YEEEHHH

  • You want to burn a CD of their music? How sad. :)

  • Hahaha. Yeah and put it on my ipod and computer and ringtones.

    XD

  • This was when MTV was cool

    to watch!

  • @jtshape78 MTV was cool in the 80s, this video is from mid 1990s, was on MTV show called 120 minutes. MTV categories this band as alternative music that only can be played on 120 minutes show, such as Radiohead, Bjork, and Talking Heads. Only rap and pop, like Back Street Boys were on MTV in the 1990s. I watched Canadian music station called Much Music they played bands I like, that some MTV would never played. I was there to witness, now MTV changed again since then. again.

  • Horrible video, good song!

  • i second that. lol

  • Hard to believe this was actually recorded 15 years ago in january 1995. man i feel old i remember this playing on the radio when i was in middle school. too bad this did'nt make their recent greatest hits CD. at least it's on the DVD included with the deluxe version of it. just an amazing song. good times...good times...

  • ++ to fender0613 comments.. \m/

  • @nachoattorney1980 yeah you have right man, i don't remeber clearly this times but i remember this song and this is important :D

  • Great band!

  • Love this video and the whole Foo Fighters 1st album. Reminds me of Fall '95, living on the houseboat in Sausalito.

  • I think,its the first music video of the Foo Fighters.

  • this was a great freakin era in music

  • He's brushing his teeth lol

  • @amillionminutes Except that's not a toothbrush...

  • amazing

  • Sound's so much like what Nirvana use to play.Dave rule's.

  • Probably one of their better Anti-Courtney Love songs ;)

  • hey drummers,is it me or is that rack tom abnormally huge?????????//

  • omg that rack tom is actually pretty big!

  • It looks like someone has put a floor tom there by accident.

  • Yeah, it is kinda big.

  • I still remember listening to this song back in 1995 !!!! MTV=shit this days.

    Foo 4 Ever!!!!!!!!

  • what ever happened to good music?  such as this track from 1990 something

  • haha go for it man!!! lol

  • lol go for it dude good luck!!!

  • lols. thats a good one.

  • Is the stuff leaving Dave's mouth a tribute to Weird Al?

  • Funny thing is, Dave played all the instruments by himself.. they just made a video with the bandcolleagues later on.

  • foo fighters the best!!!!

  • awesome song

  • Ca c dla sé sic!!!

  • the video is kinda suppose to suck... IT WAS 1995! lol

  • Video is shit, but the song is great.

  • Had this song stuck in my head for the last two days in college. I think bands should make more songs like this.

  • Good song.

    N.a.M. Just the title.

  • coming to rock band 2 this week =]

  • i bought this the day it came out. loved this song, then realized most of the record wasn't like this song. it's not a bad record by any means, just not grungy.

  • Yeah this is awesome!!!

  • Good one.. =)

  • Good song, it's catchy

  • today is 15 yrs since foo fighters first album cam out!!

  • you mean 14,becouse foo first album came out in 1995 =S

  • sound's like nirvana but it's a fucking good song

  • Well, this band was formed RIGHT after Nirvana disbanded, and this album was made in that same year.

  • gr8 song dis is da only song of foo which i like

  • this is my theme song that plays in my head when I walk down the street andit puts a little skip in my step. I love whole song but fav. part is 2:58 to the end of song :D

  • i agree i has a good ending. yeeaaaahhhhhhh!!!!! foooooooo!!!!!!!

  • kurt wrote this...read heavier than heaven and it says so i think.....

  • No, he didn't.

    'Heavier Than Heaven' was written by a guy called Charles Cross, a gossip who romanticized every little detail about Cobain's life.

    Him and Courtney Love are responsible for things like Kurt Cobain's diary being published; which in my opinion, is a shocking invasion of privacy - whether you're dead OR alive.

    Anything that comes from 'Heavier Than Heaven' should be ignored by anyone with any common sense. Very few of the facts in it can be backed up by anyone else.

  • yea thats wut i kinda been figuring out about cross.....ur right

  • Yeah, you can make your own decision about him - but If you ask me, the guy's a total phoney.

    He always comes out of the woodwork when he can smell a documentary about "Grunge" being made. You can tell by the way he speaks in interviews that he's in love with the story about how tragic Cobain was - and never seems to comment on the music.

  • are you talking about dave? is so fuck off and die wanker

  • Firstly, even if I was talking about Dave (Who I wasn't because I think he's a class act) - it would still be my own opinion and not yours. So for that alone, you can go get fucked.

    Secondly, I wasn't talking about Dave - I was talking about Charles R. Cross; something you would have known If you'd actually read the comment you were swearing at.

    Lastly, picking fights over the internet doesn't make you a tough person. Speak to me like that in real life and I'll fucking bury you.

  • come on guys, lets just enjoy the music

  • I was. Nice post.

  • exactly :D the riffs really catchy isn't it :D

  • Whenever I hear the riff, I'm mumbling it for the rest of the day.

  • So true, im glad im not the only one who hates charles cross. And in every interview about Kurt i've seen him in he always talks about kurt like hes a movie character rather than a real person.

  • no dave wrote this about courtney love sueing him chris for the rights to nirvana's music.

  • It doesn't mean that part of the video isn't a nod to weird al's video, Nirvana thought that video was a riot so who knows?

  • You guys know how somehow every religious, theological, or political conversation eventually leads to someone mentioning "Nazis?"

    Well someone should make a rule about how all rock conversations somehow eventually bring up Jonas Brothers.

  • LOL you just did,

    And a more truthful rule I could not think of.

  • where's Pat??

  • Foo Fighters are the best band in the world!!

  • They've been around for over twenty years!

  • jonas brothers? who's that? lol :-D

  • pezao son la gente comparando bandas con esa cagada de banda como es jonas brothers, es materialista esa banda

  • i just don't get how the jonas brothers keep coming up in conversations about decent rock bands. am i missing something? the jonas brothers. wtf?

  • this pretty much sums up courtney love

  • Dave's gain, Courtney's loss, ours too. Glad to hear a final Nirvana song, for the record my favorite song on earth is Learn to Fly... Grateful am I!!!

  • Awesome!

  • such a kwl song! My Hero is not written bout Kurt bt Friend of A Friend is

  • exelente!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • the Jonas Brothers are a Mickey Mouse group that was put together so that Disney could make more money because their shows suck!!!

    Putting them on the same level as the Foo Fighters and Nirvana is a slap in the face to both bands!!!

    Jonas Brothers= Disney

    so to all the teen preps and posers please shut up and stop trying to make them bigger than what they are

  • nicely said man

  • thanks and thanks for putting up the video

  • you said it best brother.

  • Who would even contemplate thinking that garbage?

  • hell yea man nicely said man i hate jonas brothers i have a lil brother thats eight and drums and hates jonas but he luves foo fighters and nirvana and i took him 2 a concert for the foo fighters la invasion and he was happy im glad he likes good music not disney music trash

  • kick ass dude!!!

    we need more kids like him!!!

  • this is my favourite Foo Fighters song of all time ^__^

  • That jumo he does when he plays looks wierd.

    I'm glad he doesn't do it anymore.

  • bc2187--Are you serious???? The Foo Fighters aren't great??? I tend to heavily agree w/darthmoop. I respect Nirvana in that the band was instrumental in bringing Grunge into, and rock back into, the limelight, but the music is just kinda....meh. Foo Fighters music just grabs ahold of my senses and runs with them. Nirvana, however, could never even get 'em off the ground. But that's just me tho. To each his/her own....

  • Have to disagree with you there, Alicia. I'm not a huge fan of either group, but Nirvana was definitely a way better band than Foo Fighters. Kurt's lyrics were just on a way deeper level than Dave's. No disrespect to Dave, but Smells Like Teen Spirit was a song that pretty much defined a generation and launched a movement. Nevermind is an all-time classic album, and the Foo, while great in their own right, will never be able to match that.

  • We will just have to agree to disagree. I can't stand Nirvana's music, but I had already previously acknowledged that they were largely responsible for the Grunge Era. Which is cool. You're view that Nirvana is, quote, "way better" than Nirvana is merely YOUR opinion, and, again as I previously stated, to each his own. And Dave has, in fact, "stuck around", and Kurt, sadly, just could not hack it. His tragic depression shone through in his music, which was poignant. No singing voice to speakof

  • This song was in Bevis and Butthead haha.

  • the drumming sounds great. I wonder if Dave was the one who played the drums when they recorded this song. Plus thats not even Taylor Hawkins.

  • i read somewhere that Dave

    did everything for this song ;

    guitars, vocals, bass, drums

  • thats effin cool then man. Dave is a one man band. He rocks.

  • dave wrote and recorded this entire album himself...then he got a band to play it

  • Love it!

  • he wrote this song just a little bit after Kurt Cobain's death

  • This song is great if you have a frustrating relationship. It gets my anger out-Love It!!

  • I dont care how much the Foo Fighters music changes it will always be great cause Dave Grohl is a great artist. Comparing bands is a waste of time and energy.Everyone has their own opinion of what they like. Nirvana was great but I think Foo could be one of the greatest if Dave stays true to his feeling for music.

  • a bunch of bitches have posted comments on this link....Never, ever compare Foo Fighters or Nirvana to the Jonas Brothers!!! I've done some heroin in my lifetime (Im 21 yrs old)...The Jonas bros could never see my point of view, nor Kurt Cobains for that matter! This song is clearly about Cobain and it's intense because of it...The Foo Fighters aren't great, but they sure are good. No need to knock talent, assholes

  • this song isnt about kurt, trust me im a HUGE ASS foo fan, every song that comes out people start saying is about kurt, its not, dave has said its not, and they are great, theyre amazing..

  • u're right, its not about kurt, it is however, about courtney love(in result of the hardships her and kurt went thru and dave being brought in the middle time after time) fact

  • My Hero was the song Grohl wrote about Kurt. Man, this is a good album.

  • hrrm maybe the one most people thing is about courtney love is stacked actors which would make sense but isnt true

  • HOLY SHIT this is an awesome song nothing wrong with it imo

  • curto pra caralho essa musica, ela ainda soa bem Grunge, ela poderia até ter saido na discografia do Nirvana, se Kurt tivesse deixado é claro , i love Foo, please come back yet!!!

  • People can support whoever the fuck they want to support. Free country.

    Nirvana isn't nearly overrated anymore, I hate that played out line. The Jonas Brothers has clearly taken it's place, keep up with the times.

  • I used to love the Foo Fighters until they started to support idiots like John Kerry and other liberal politics. They've backed off a bit, which is good. At least they're not as Liberal as Bruce Springsteen.

  • you're a moron!

  • if you mean better by as in more overrated then yes

  • yea,gimme thumbs down cuz you wanna deny the turth,Nirvanas awesome but smells like teen spirit is overrated,not better than anything the foo fighters did

  • I have been listening to this song since it first came out when I was in college, and I have to say, it NEVER get's old. This song is a perfectly crafted, catchy song. It is perfect. Dave Grohl's simple, pop song writing skills really came across on this beast.

  • AMAZING song.

  • I miss these Foo Fighters

  • HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!
