i dont think so....dave didnt want to give up music after nirvana. dave is a foo fighter now..i dont think dave wants to be remembered on kurt every time he plays a foo fighters song. the song let it die is about kurt...thats all.
@DannySmithThe the problem is for the most people is cobain a hero, and dave play with him in a band. I think the most people wish that this song is for his old friend kurt.
Sorry, this song isn't about Kurt Cobain. It's about the regular people who are heroes, like a single parent that works long hours to provide for their kids, or a teacher or mentor who helps a someone reach their potential in life...this song is about the ordinary heroes that are in everyone's lives. For Dave, Kurt might have been that person, but this song isn't about him.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
you guys are retarded it was writen for kurt. he taught him how to play guitar he was his hero if you dont know that you shouldn't even listen to foo fighters this band is for kurt retards
i want to know why u think that, kurt wasn't ordinary he was a great musician and dave said it was about people who are firemen or policemen those were his heroes, but u are a stubborn ass and probably think that every song is about kurt. Only one song was about kurt nd tht is Friend of a Friend and thts it so get over it
Songs are meant to be written so anybody can put their own thoughts and interpretations on it and relate to it in their own way, so you're a fuckin idiot for saying that its wrong to think its about kurt cobain. So shut the fuck up
Stop making stuff up. This is a DIRECT quote from Grohl....MY HERO
"That's my way of saying that when I was young, I didn't have big rock heroes, I didn't want to grow up and be some big sporting hero. My heroes were ordinary people and the people that I have a lot of respect for are just solid everyday people - people you can rely on."
@aimonaali it was a cut and paste - the part of my post that says DAVE GROHL - MY HERO - is simply the name of the person who made the quote, and the subject. I'm not saying Dave Grohl is my hero. I like him as a pop/rock star, but he's not a personal hero of mine i'm afraid, so, no, no irony there.....
@DYLANAPPLEJUICE2 My bad for not being a sad, sorry fuckstain like you who has nothing better to do than Wiki-search rock stars and watch all their interviews. I'm simply one in a million peole who picked up the wrong message from this song, and who can blame me? What you need to do is go fuck yourself and keep your childish comments to yourself, you momentous runaway train of undeniably irritating bullshit that's of use to nobody.
@boylebhoy2007 Umad? ... just saying your comment is wrong and your a dumbass...nobig...calm down..and hows it a childish comment if it just says that the song wasn't for kurt cobain...if anybody is childish its you because you get mad over a comment on youtube...
im not positive on whos its about but its not about kurt, friend of a friend is about kurt this song is just great saw em in sydney do an acoustic one of this was amazing.
Funny story about me and this version of the song. Stern was about to leave regular radio in 05 so he did a segment on the best musical performances on his show and on that same day I was scheduled to have my braces removed. I wanted nothing more than to have my braces taken off but when he played this song, I sat in the parking lot of my orthodontists office and waited a few more minutes so that I could finish the song!
imdb shows 2 appearances on the Howard stern show----1999 and 2002. I saw this on the E! network Howard Stern show but I don't remember if it was 99 or 02. I'm thinkin 02 but whatever.
There's definitely some video footage of it in the E! archives.(Yeah that's Howard and Robin yappin at the end).
