  • Plainly three guitars and you get why the Foo Fighters are just as good as they are. Oh yeah, and add a killer rythm section.

  • To my wife. X

  • Chris mistake =)  4:14

  • two months ago, one of my best friends commited suicide. this song helps me

    RIP DANIELLE!

  • Such a beautiful acoustic song was happy to see Pat glance over smiling at Dave feeling the connection incredible song can't ask for a better group of people in a band!

  • The 7 guys who disliked has serious problems

  • I hope heaven is like 4:10, all the time

  • Pat Smear + Dave Grohll = Awesome

  • Dave Grohl wrote this song for Taylor Hawkins when Taylor overdosed and went into a coma. But Dave had never told Taylor that he wrote this song for him. A love song to a dying friend.

  • @Rockdude147 true, but you copied that almost word for word from the back and forth dvd :/

    

  • @Mattme83 and I care why

  • Just another nonsense comment non-related to the video. No need to repeat what's clear.

  • Just amazing

  • this is FAR better than Skin and Bones. don't get me wrong, i love Skin and Bones, but this si just better

  • This is the last great band of the last century. Fuck this whole autotuned hip hop music scene. 

  • I hope they play this when I see them. I happen to have a physics midterm the same day as the Foo Fighters concert, so I'ma ace that shit and go rock out!!! They probably won't play it though because its a rock show.

  • wow

  • Great great!

  • I don't understand… how can they be this good! Are they from another planet? I've reflected on it for two years and that's the best I could come up with.

  • So much better than the album version! Listened to that song a thousand times and it still touches me every single time!

  • @Poolboy884 i dont think so, the album version is much better, i think

  • la canzone fa godere, l'orgasmo arriva a 3:44 con le chitarre...

    capolavoro.

  • one of my best friends since 2nd grade died this last summer. he was an incredible person, amazing friend, and the nicest/kindest person everybody had ever met. after the funeral, this was the first song that made me feel at all better about the situation. thank you for posting this, thank you dave for writing this beautiful song when you were worried about your friend, and i will always love you kory. -Stephen

  • Sumblime

  • Holy SHIT! This Live Version... Man.. Its soo amplified! Its like a beefed up 10x's Version of the Album Version..

    Beautiful..

  • absolutely perfect! how melodic

  • Anyone else hear the melody of the chorus of "Petrol CB" from the Pocketwatch demos in here?

  • anyone the chords to play this fantastic song??? i love it !!!

  • @kratis999 please, say something if u get the chords! =)

  • @RuiJorgeFooFighters F#, E for the verse and prechorus. then try Bbm and G for the chorus.

  • @kratis999 I can tell you that it is basically 4 chords. F# with the top two strings open, E, G#m and G. The last two get used very little.

  • Any one else notice the violinist looks a bit like Mary-Louise Parker?

  • @HallaHalla367 I think she was in The Decemberists, dunno?

  • GOD I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!

  • Someone buy me this album for teh Xmas please. Lol

  • 4:10 - 4:48 I've listened to this song about 1 000 000 times and this part still gives me the chills...

  • I love this song. The end is absolutely amazing.

  • Beautiful :)

  • I have commented on this page before,but every time i come back to this song i am amazed how fucking good they are ! I have grown up listening to the Foo's and they still leave me wanting to learn how to play an instrument.

  • Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwweome­! Dave Grohl is god, and this is amazing!

  • Instrumentally brilliant song , this song will hold a place in my heart forever .

    The look on Pat's face near the end .....looking at Dave , he knows they just did something special ......

    I think i could listen to the last minute of the song looped , and just let it ride all day .

  • The Foo Fighters are just amazingly GREAT live. It takes a very good band to be like that. Enough said

  • This is a perfect example of instruments coming togther to make harmony, live.

  • love dave and pat's guitars at the end of the song awesome

  • the album version was amazing. but this straight up like a waterfall of music. it makes you feel THAT good

  • This is one of their greatest songs...ever!

  • dave is made for rockin us !!!!

  • Love this version. Nothing beats it!

  • Love watching Grohl. No one is more giving and grateful of their musical talent. Here is a man who sings, drums, writes, and everything else for the pure love of music and not for fortune or fame - that's just a bonus. Can't get enough.

  • rock and grohl

  • good song, good performance :D

    love it and ill never get tired of it

  • oh shit! this is their best live performance!! 5 out of 5

  • Everything They do is simply amazing to me! It has so much raw emotion and heartfelt lyrics too that make it hard not to be overcome at times by your own emotions....Simply awesome!!!

  • what a performance

    outro is just perfect

  • Truly. Fucking. Awesome.

  • is there a cd/dvd in which i could find this version?

  • @skamour Don't know if you have had a reply to this, but you might want to invest in the Skin and Bones DVD. It's magic. There is also a Skin and Bones CD and the song (non live) is also on Disc 2 of In Your Honour. All brilliant!!

  • @mrvassa yeah, i was looking for this version, but in an mp3 format..so that i could listen to it while jogging :) but i can't find this live (just audio) anywhere.

    anyway thank you :D

  • @skamour the dvd is skin and bones :)

  • wonder if theres a connection between "On the MEND" and Nate MENDel.... hmm...

    anyways great performance, everyone up there seems to be groovin in their own world

  • dave is so used to be a drummer that when he's playin guitar he's always moving his leg up and down

  • @EugenioNS Drumming or not, he's like clockwork. He's always on time, never misses a beat. His performances show that.

  • pay no mind im doing fine

    im breathing on my own... this hits me straight to the heart...god the foos are amazing

  • Word!

    Only 4 Chords that make such a wonderful song...

  • 4 chords of pure brilliance

  • foofighters are certainly one of a kinda no one can produce that amazing sound but them

  • i love this song.

  • it is nice to see pat smear up there.

  • i bought "skin & bones" live in hollywood from a cash-converters and it only had one disc in it.........worth it for this song alone, fuckin LOVE IT!!!!

  • @cliveinessex1 there is only one disc for that dvd.

  • I luv this song soo much its the best song ever !!

  • the outro is possibly the greatest thing since and pre-dating sliced bread.

  • I like how each musician, no matter how big or small a part they are playing, looks totally in their own world, enjoying it. Good vibes.

  • @Mantrousers They put their soul into their play of this song that day.

    EPIC

  • i absolutely love this song... I've been listening to it nonstop all day

  • amazing

  • beautiful song!

  • For me the Foo Fighters are perpetual Brilliance !!! Dave Grohl has put together a band of quality musicians,and continues to produce amazing music. They are the pick of the crop,without compromise.

  • uh, CREED is way better! just playin, creed sucks monkey nuts

  • Haha! That joke was so relative to people who know what Dave has talked a fair amount Creed in is interviews so far.

  • amazing, they sound just like on the album

  • Just ass-kicking BRILLIANT! Someone PLEASE tell me another band who's capable of this today. Just one!

  • it took me 5 min to figure out that there isnt... i feel stupid lol

  • Thank you... and don't feel stupid.

    I guess the way I look at it, I wish that people watching this would envision themselves on stage - and what they would HOPE to be able to produce, in terms of music. For a live, acoustic performance, this is pure brilliance... in every sense of the word. This just HAPPENED, regardless of how much they prepared. It just happened, as it was supposed to happen.

  • PEARL FUCKIN JAM BABY!!!!!

  • AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @BBCater the foos are the best live band i have ever seen

  • well the thing is i think the reason they are so great is they really just love the music.

    most other bands are in it as a fashion show.

    your exactly you won't find any great artists like them, I am glad there are still people that appreciate the beauty of the foo =]

  • Pink Floyd...when they tour :p

  • AWESOME!!!!!!!!!

  • Absolutely great stuff!

  • Brilliant...absolutely brilliant.

  • Pat smear cant half play that guitar!!!!

  • I love this song, one of my favourites off the 2nd disc. two thumbs way way up!

  • dave and the ff's are everything thats great about todays rock bands even toned down they are f'kin brilliant

    i'm going out tomorrow to get this dvd

  • love it

  • This sounds so much better then the recording on "IYH". Wish disc 2 sounded like this really, would of been so much of an better album.

  • my favorite part is 4:11 when its just the guitars playing. Just completely amazing.

  • Amazing!

  • The Foos need to have another acoustic tour, their songs are amazing on acoustic, especially Everlong.

  • Comment removed

  • Im not into much acoustic at all, usually the vocals are lacking, or the the melody is lacking too much. This however, is absolutely and utterly amazing. You fall right into the track. The use of two guitars is awesome, and the the violin is beautiful. I can't say much more.

  • Song amazing!!! But... this song played two guitar...

  • now im not a huge fan of the acoustic foo fighters but i LOVE this

  • I love that Dave puts so much meaning into each song. He really gets into it... <3

  • the greatest song ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i bet taylors mouth was fucking sore after this show lol

  • such a simple song yet so powerful and amazing in so many ways! pure acoustic genious!

  • Music just doesn't get any better than this. Brilliant! And most people haven't ever - and won't ever hear it. Because it's not commercialized.

  • Closest thing to musical perfection -touches the soul. Amazing!!!

  • damn, this is pure musical genious. i mean its like an exposion of great acoustic sounds man

  • I love it when a song can actually move me! I am so glad I came across this. And the end guitar solo(s) are perfection - I love Pat Smear's smile at the end. You can tell they genuinely were in "the zone". Love it!

  • pat smear's always smiling lol
