  • Dear Dave, You will never succeed in gettting your hair out of your face. No matter how hard you try. Deal with it.

  • Why does Dave Grohl ALWAYS gay this song up?? Look at the "are" parts and you'll know what I mean. Also the chorus is abysmal; he's taking the piss, talking it rather than put in his heart and soul like in the music video. The drummer tries all the time and puts Dave to shame. Pathetic. I love the official video though, and it proves that Dave is either 1) lazy as fuck, or 2) computers are only reason that he sounds good.

  • @chrisgonatakethepiss Dude, first of all you ARE entitled to your opinion but I just want to state some quick facts here. Dave Grohl is not "gaying up the song", he's not talking he's singing and if you listen to the studio recording of the pretender, there's a backing track where he sings there too. my guess for why Dave sings the backing track live is so he doesn't blow his voice out before the other acts. And trust me dude, Dave Grohl is a naturally talented dude.

  • @jydx55 - He DOESN'T gay it up?? 1:41, 1:50, 5:52, 6:03 and once or twice more usually, if not for the orchestra here. I'm no homophobe, in case some clown uses says that shit, but it's totally unnecessary, what Davo does, and it kinda ruins his performances. He IS talking (how can you seriously think otherwise) and in the studio recording, doesn't his backing track only play right at the end??

  • @jydx55 -(Sorry, long reply- supreme ownage here) As for the blowing out his voice part of your comment, why would he create a song that he had no intention of ever singing live?! Does that make sense to you, even as in denial as you've shown yourself to be? Maybe he should just play it last then.You know what I'm sayin'. You can't even deny it.

  • Fuckin rocks hard!

  • Why is that he always looks like he is trying to get the hair of his face, but never succeeds?

  • love you taylor :)

  • It's nice to see FF on the Grammeys but it's sad though that rock just seems dead. Most shows like this I don't know ANYBODY performing. Rock is still there, just needs a better outlet. Long live rock.

  • John Paul Effin Jones!!!

  • These guys don't ever, ever half ass it, do they? I mean damn. I think this guy and this band is gonna be like Springsteen and E street. Relevant and around for ever making great songs that are hits. If you see em live, every fucking song in their set is "yr favorite". They have soooo many.

  • 1:23 click here :D

  • wait... why is Jason Bateman there? I mean he's great and all but...

  • I hope they perform at this years Grammys. Hell, they have 6 nominations including Album of the Year.

  • @SwiftVideoSource When are this years grammy awards broadcasted and on what channel?

  • @vikkce February 12th at 8/7c on CBS.

  • If Dave gets any hotter, I may have to gouge my eyes out to focus on how much I love the music.

  • the string & horn section interlude is the sexiest part of this performance

  • The orchestral arrangements are very poor ... after see METALLICA with michael kamen ,john paul jones the only thing that can do well is play bass ... as F.F. are very awesome

    THE GREAT ERICK SARDINAS

    (major sardine)

  • @ericksardinas1

    why poor?

  • This would have made a kick ass Bond theme

  • hahahah dave still does that thing with her feet, like if he was playing drums

  • What can't John Paul Jones do? He can not only play almost every instrument but can also conduct an orchestra.

  • Anyone else getting really sick of these kronenbourg adverts?

  • Trumpet player looks like a chubby Jesus!

  • @Olopez113 he looks nothing like dave grohl...?

  • The have to put Taylor's mic louder...

  • that riff under the rhythm guitar is a bitch to play... :L fair play

  • bitch still aint as lucky as the double bassist!

  • they have plenty of violinists...no need for Ann Marie Calhoun

  • @Ragavelov you honestly must be dumb, you don't make much sense. just quit, i win, you lose.

  • This is my fav song. When I get mad at the state of Florida for making the state workers suffer ( like me ) I play this song!!!!

  • foo fighters and jason bateman at once? YES!

  • when he said creepy guy over there, he was pointing to me

  • @dennison1094 im talking about 3:22

  • @Alberto465100 that's PAT fuckin SMEAR you're talkin about! cmon!!

  • This dude isnt even playing his guitar! The camera zooms in then switches really fast to another one! Lol by the way great performance by foo fighters

  • @Alberto465100 they have three guitarists :L not including bass

  • Watch Grohl get angry with fan at iTunes festival last night on my channel!

  • John Paul Jones is incredible! My favorite band of all time is Led Zeppelin and Foo Fighters now continues the legacy of excellence! Hope Foo Fighters plays the south east. We would love to see them in Orlando.

  • Dave Grohl looks like 90's version of John Petrucci haha...

  • God that audio is horribly mixed, all I hear is vocals.

  • im so excited they are coming to my city!! taking my nephew who is a killer guitarist!

    we are going to freak! smash!!

  • Live at Wembley, a much better and much more rocking version!!! This one is good though.

  • one of the best performances ever...!!!

  • He has a beautiful voice

  • No... Jesus like Dave..

  • tumbs up for ''the creapy guy over there''

  • that orchestra at the end was a good intention but it suck ass

  • you're all , f*ckin pretender

  • man they had john paul jones with them again?!?!?!?! gosh he is my favorite4 bass player EVER!!!!!!!!!

  • dave grohl looks like jesus xD

    

  • @salvikidfabian god did make jesus in his image

  • GOD D*NM! I love this.. STUNNING.. That orchestra thing as well..

  • Got to admit, I came here for John Paul Jones more so than Foo Fighters.

  • brilliant

    Metallica did it first tho

  • @Corcaigh93 except foo fighters did it better

  • And that is exactly what kind of performance should be at the Grammy's. Bands who can sing just as good live as they can on their album = ] This is the song that got me back into the Foo Fighters. They are so talented! Loved the little orchestra bit.

  • What can make the Foo Fighters better? An orchestra. What can make the orchestra better? Fucking John Paul Jones!

  • @MurphyMonster What can make John Paul Jones better? MOAR COWBELL!!!

  • The Foo Fighters Orchestra :D

  • Pat Smear!

  • kurt would be proud

  • up the orchestra some more and this could be a james bond opening theme song! best of both worlds. (4:40 after)

  • I don't see why everyone thinks Dave kicks Taylor's ass at drumming...

  • Wasting Light is definitely one of their better albums.

  • how can you actually say that? dave can sing, act, play guitar, drums, bass, allsorts, dave kicks taylors ass at drumming, the only reason why he doesnt drum is he prefers to sing. theres a video of taylor even saying ' dave kicks my ass, lol, but im still better looking!'

  • dave grohl is a better drummer than taylor, but still he's great

  • @fearonification no he's not =)

  • dave looks a bit different. i know it was way back when in 08, but it wouldn't surprise me if this was just a dave look-alike.

  • @James24884 yep it was Dave wyndorf

  • I love the thing he foes with his foot. I would do that If I was performing also

  • PAT SMEAR IS BACK LADIES AND GENTLEMEN....!!!!!!!

  • how funny the hottest chick one. what a surprise

  • @TonyOnlyandFriends How funny that the ONLY ASIAN won.

  • HONKY! THE POOS!!! TERRIBLE!!!

  • pat smear!!!!

  • Foo Fighters should play the Superbowl next year. They'd actually have a good band play there in such a long time.

  • @MooseOfReason I couldn't agree more...they need to stop bringing all the shitty mainstream bands and bring a legendary band like Foo Fighters for super bowl... tired of NFL bringing lame pop musicians every year. FUCK!!!

  • foo fighters is the best rock band just all around awsome

  • ladies and gentleman and the creepy guy walking over there.. :L

  • I belive Dave Grohl is like jesus,except more talented and insperational.

  • foo fighters show us what rock is all about ;D

  • Hey! That guy was in Teen Wolf Too!

  • is the my grammy moment winner tina guo?

  • i bet most of the crowd does not even know who Mr. John Paul Jones is..

  • @jdu6 seriously, i probably would've cried and freaked the fuck out

  • @jdu6 haha yeah hes the drummer for led zeppelin right? lol

  • @PJPeepKiller no he plays the guitar but sadly the drummer John Bonham died he was a bit of an alchohalic

  • @PJPeepKiller no he is the bassist the drummer died sadly 30 years ago

  • @ang131000 already got it preordered. been listening to the streaming version all the time.

  • I know that. I was only funnin. He's a great drummer

  • Thats WWEs Edge on Drums LOL!!

  • @ericcraig5150 no its taylor hawkins you dumbass

  • FOO FIGHTERS 50TH GRAMMY MOMENT

  • foo fighter live forever

  • One of the best live performances on this award shows..

  • Im buying it!!!

  • they are just terrible live.

  • @EvertonJLima Don't know how you came to that conclusion, but whatever.

  • @gogglygogol45 What? Not enough teen angst for you?

  • underwhelming

  • 1:14 to skip all the gayness

  • Nirvana for life, good job Dave!

  • foo zeppelin! john paul jones the most underrated bass of all times

  • Well said by Ang131000 above. I love the Foo Fighters and Led Zep but I'm sick and tired of my favorite bands using these string sections. Rock 'n roll is supposed to be bare bones and rebellion. Guitar, drums, bass, piano, horns, etc. Send these violin players back to the orchestra pit to play classical music with their MFA's. R 'n R is the people's music.

  • @1379crisG is that like the charlie sheen winning? or did you not notice that the foo fighters are way better than nickelback?

  • @pyromaniarules nickelback is shit compare to foo figherts...

  • holy crap john paul jones is the conductor!

  • I remember this performance.

  • @rubyhaleybenjamin exactly my sentiments!

  • doing drums while doing the second voice(which is usually on a much higher note) is such epic.

  • @BurnYerself Well, Dave Grohl(Vocalist) used to be the drummer for Nirvana.

  • @blackblade128 Okay captain obvious...what's the rest of your point? I'm just curious to know what you think that has to do with Taylor Hawkins?

  • @BurnYerself i agree ! few drummers are able to perform like this .. Hawkings IS A FAKING ANIMAL !!

  • @BurnYerself Totally agree with you, a great drummer = a great multitasker :p

  • foo fighters r a truly current rock n roll band. there r not too many of them left. LIVE ON!

  • "When I was your age, girls used to actually take off their shirts at rock concerts. Fans nowadays are either prostitots, or boring as f***"

  • Well i like rap,rock,metal and a few other but it's just all about the person.So tell me if you're friend like's rap will you hate him if you dont like rap.Answer that question and think it over.

  • DAVE!....TAYLOR! ....too much awesome right there.

  • Epic, Dave Grohl is the real shizz !

  • who's the chick playin the Double-Bass with a bow? or is that a cello? couldnt get a good look

  • @dubyajay13 Jesse Greene

  • This sounds like it could be a James Bond theme with the orchestra

  •  super song...!!!

  • Dave has a peculiar resemblence to jesus...

  • @Sloth55Chunk Dave is Jesus...der

  • @Sloth55Chunk that's because he IS Jesus

  • What song will they be performing at next year's Grammys? It's going to be the summer of Foo! 

  • @ang131000 they still havent revived rock like nirvana. dave grohl was the drummer.kurt cobain was the man. beside nirvana is more famous than the foo fighters

  • @killamoss81 Some of the shit Nirvana did was just noise. I cant think of anything The Foo Fighters have done that was just noise.

  • @WhichOnesPink777 but like 90% of what nirvana did was nothing but pure genius!

  • @pyromaniarules more like 50%. They had A LOT of random noise. but they are still better than 90% of music anyway

  • @killamoss81 Nirvana gave us Kings of Leon and Maroon 5. If that was reviving rock, we'd all be better off if it had died.

  • @ang131000 Hell, I'm going the extra 1/2 mile, I'm gonna pre-order it with the cd pre-order package (The deluxe package is sold out, unfortunately)

  • @ang131000

    implying all rock stations started playing rap

  • @ang131000 Best comment I've seen in my life!
