Foo Fighters The Colour & The Shape

[andrethefaivre]

definitely the biggest inspiration on the music i write

[CraftingWithCreepers]

what album, imma telling you there is no 19th track on the colour and the shape?

[GregThePanda]

@CraftingWithCreepers dude its a b-side off of the post-release version of 'colour and the shape.' it included baker street, requiem, down in the park, dear lover, and this song. the album these came on included all 13 track from the original second album with the other 5

[665885]

@GregThePanda B-side as in...buy another version of the same album? Turn the disc upside down??

[CraftingWithCreepers]

@GregThePanda thanks, ill have a look



[ilikedogschit92]

[crazidoode]

HARDCORE DISTORTION! THAT'S RIGHT!

[asdf852asdf]

and i though this kind of songs were death

[retroge]

THIS WILL BE MY FINAL BOSS THEME.

[MrShredFish]

I thought he was saying shit not shape =P

[MrShredFish]

For some reminds of breed and stay away idk =P

[lol1992ist]

argh....!!! Grohl Growl...!!!!

[0371998]

[Pierre2631]

This song makes me want to fight a whole army of bears.

[DrKlimax]

my god what a piece of song!! Never heard it ! this album rocks

[100528]

YOUR A RETARD ANYWAY

[Justeatmytoast]

@100528 Yeah, I'm a retard anyway, now I understand, thanks!

[TheReaperToast]

foo fighters' endless nameless

[Justeatmytoast]

@TheReaperToast It rather reminds me of 'Negative Creep'.

[TheReaperToast]

@Justeatmytoast It's a secret screaming song so endless nameless ;)

[Justeatmytoast]

@TheReaperToast Wow, really? I didn't listen to 'Colour and The Shape' CD, I only listened to some on YouTube. Thanks for explanation :)

[YewTiup]

thats what im talking about!!

[darkfarce]

Nirvana is NOT dead. Thanks to Dave and Krist for Foo Fighters and Sweet 75

[Justeatmytoast]

@darkfarce Oh, Nirvana is dead at all but all they without Kurt still alive. Nirvana is dead. Not Krist and Dave, and Chad, Pat, Lori, Melora and another full band members.

[PatricktheDoody]

Hot damn this is unlike the foo fighters to make a song like this but it's pretty dam awesome :D

[RyanSTH94]

First time I've heard this song! Damn, I've only heard the 13 tracks... Man, am I missin' out.

Lyrics are a bit harsh though, eh?

Hate the word 'retard'. Unless you say like in The Hangover!

[quanmandetil]

This is such a crazy song.

[Anonix123]

I don't know why I'm loving it. Is it because it sounds so much Nirvana? Is it because Dave sounds similiar to Kurt on guitar and vocals? Or is it just so fucking awesome?! I don't know, but fuck it! It's amazing and I love it!

[Groove228]

the intro sounds a bit like muse

[LfcJosh]

@Groove228 Do you mean Plug in Baby or Fury by any chance?

[Groove228]

@LfcJosh both :D

[Jackalos1]

@LfcJosh more like Hyper Music or Ashamed

[LfcJosh]

@Jackalos1 I'll give you that.

[Themovie16]

i've only got 13 tracks on the colour and the shape.....

[nyyguitar3387]

@Themovie16 the album was re-released a few years ago as a 10th anniversary kind of thing and there were bonus songs on it. this is one of them. also included is a brilliant cover of pink floyd's "baker street".

[expressmusicstore]

@nyyguitar3387 gerry rafferty's "baker street". they did "have a cigar" by floyd

[nyyguitar3387]

@expressmusicstore yup, you are correct sir. my bad, haha.

[Mr11MUSICMAN]

Impressive, most impressive.

[jjc19461]

new FF album is going to be ALOT heavier than this. WTF HOLY BALL SHIT!

[Bleach7Chelseafanx]

@jjc19461 I know I can't freakin wait! Dave says it will be the heaviest album yet and I'm imagining a whole album with songs like this; it blows my freakin mind!

[gheffty93]

@Bleach7Chelseafanx I wouldnt go that far. It will be heavy but dont expect every song to be like this. And besides why would you want that? This song is awesome but then you wouldnt get classics such as Walking After You or February Stars.

[Bleach7Chelseafanx]

@gheffty93 I'm not sayin I hate those, in fact I think February Stars and songs of that tone are the best (my favorite album is there is nothing left to lose cause of those types of songs), I'm just sayin I love their kickass music like this and wouldn't mind seeing more of it.

[gheffty93]

@Bleach7Chelseafanx yah I agree with that. I think there will be a nice balance. I wasnt too crazy about their last album. I am kind of a new fan. I really like Colour and The Shape and In Your Honor. I have Big Me from their debut, and Generator and Learn to fly from there is nothing left to lose...I wanna get more albums though.

[Bleach7Chelseafanx]

@gheffty93 yea I know, I've only been a fan for about a year, and the the majority of my discovering their songs occurred over summer, and I have to say you hit it right on the head with the albums, I'd just throw in theres nothing left to lose...

[gheffty93]

@Bleach7Chelseafanx yah I plan on completing the debut and There is Nothing Left to Lose. I actually got This is a Call and I'll Stick Around today from the debut. I will get One by One last...I have All My Life and Times Like These from the album, but not even Dave Grohl liked it that much, so ill hold off on that one for now.

[jjc19461]

sounds alot like a nirvana riff. and grohl

[Zethonring23]

i'd have to agree that foo fighters are underrated to be honest, sure in the rock industry people have heard of them and they're one of the biggest modern bands around, but in the general music world they aren't very popular at all, not that many people listen to them and heck in the UK they've never even had a #1 single, regardleess they're definitely one of my all time favourite bands

[GreenDayDookieDemos]

The dislike bar is as big as Justin Bieber's penis. lol

[juliethomas01]

@GreenDayDookieDemos hahaha youre so funny how old are you 10?

[GreenDayDookieDemos]

@juliethomas01 older.

[joselemexico]

wow , simply perfect!

[SmellsLikeNothing]

Color and colour are both right. It just matters which you want to use. Like, grey and gray or favorite and favourite.

[gheffty93]

@SmellsLikeNothing can you believe people actually try to make an argument for one or the other? look at marveldude, what a douche bag

[gardenclaw82]

I love this, Dave Grohl really knows how to rock like a bastard when he puts his mind to it. His Probot stuff and time with QOTSA showed a healthy heart for rock still beats withing him. Awesome!

[dioofotaku]

this song is currently  kicking my ass in Audiosurf

[japaneselilly]

I love this.

[gurujoe1985]

@mgnewageD479 TOTALLY AGREE!

[mario1136]

I never knew foo fighters had a song titled after the album

lol this sounds more like death metal than grunge/rock

[SoKrItIcAl]

@mario1136 sounds nothing like death metal

[mario1136]

@SoKrItIcAl yeah, thats not what i meant to say lol

I think this sounds more like heavy metal

[luc4metal]

my breakfast song :)

[GreyShadowUchiha]

is it just me or did any1 else shit themself after they heard this? AWESOME SONG

[monginator]

Oh my days. Reading the comments-pfft

They are NOT grunge or even post grunge! Just because they made one hardcore song doesn't prove anything

If they're grunge then how can you explain songs such as 'Walking After You', 'Dear Lover', 'Learn To Fly', 'Long Road To Ruin' etc etc which are totally NOT grunge

And I totally agree they are one of, if not the most underrated band ever

They are AMAZING and nobody can say they are not. If people say they are crap, they belong in a wheelchair

[wonderandwhisper]

@monginator you think the foo fighters are 1 of the most underrated bands ever? are you kidding me? they are one of the biggest bands in the world and groal is respected as an amazing musician. you have to give that title to bands that are actually underrated!!!!!

[monginator]

@wonderandwhisper I'm not denying the fact the are absolutely awesome. They're my favourite band and I truly respect them and Grohl. They are under-rated. They've sold around 15 million albums, I know that's good but they should sell more. Nirvana have sold around 50 million albums and arguably one could say Foo Fighters are as good as Nirvana, therefore making Foo Fighters under-rated.

[Jackalos1]

Reminds me of Muse's Ashamed: ridiculous and fantastic at the same time!

[hi5lo2]

Dave has vocal chords of steel

[Ondori412]

Thank god they actually spelled Colour correctly

[Zerstorer23]

@Ondori412 There are plenty of words that have been "American" and "English" spellings. Like, a lot. They're both right. Just depends on your origin and (in this case) your preference.

[Ondori412]

@Zerstorer23 Spelling it "Color" is just lazy and ignorant.

[monginator]

@Ondori412 It's spelt that way because the producer of the album, Gil Norton is English and it's a homage to him. Nothing about being ignorant, stupid or lazy.

Although that I do agree American-English is annoying. It is after all called English for a reason.

[MacKay1812]

Their best b-side

[gurujoe1985]

@MacKay1812 HELL YES!



[ChriyR]

Proof Foo Fighters aren't POP :D \m/

[gurujoe1985]

@ChriyR lol

[dubbly1]

@ChriyR Damn straight. They're alternative rock. The popular music of today is like country, rap and beiber.

[AJcheste]

This is badass. Kinda makes me think of negative creep by Nirvana...fuckin heavy

[ocsk8r14]

not gonna lie worst song they have bye far..... and calm downpeople that somehow like this song... i love the foo fighter just not this song at all

[ChriyR]

Dude,This reminds me of Nirvana,Proves that They are Real Grunge and not Post

[wuababa]

@ChriyR One single song doesn't prove anything and they're NOT grunge.

[mattplaysguitar1]

foo fighters need to write more songs like this and weenie beenie and wind up and new way home. all those are the sickest songs!

[0121ryanh117]

@UEGMindrip You suck, this song rules.

[UEGMindrip]

I have no idea what I even said. But no, It is the only song by them I don't like. Go listen to your screamo somewhere else.

[SoKrItIcAl]

@UEGMindrip this song is amazing

[jakewil103]

sadly, the last song

[daviedoe]

sorta like weenie beanie

[gameiroH]

HEAVIEST FOOS EVER!!

[MyFoofighters]

i see the foo fighters as a band that sounds like every song but this song but...its just an opinion.

[MyFoofighters]

this isnt like the foo fighters :[

[nikesb2406]

@MyFoofighters lol you must be a yougin........

[giga0524]

@MyFoofighters No, it isn't. But that's what makes it so awesome, because this shows that Dave knows how to stay true to his origins and make variable music, and not just the same as the rest of foo fighters songs, gotta keep it original ya-know what I'm saying?

[Xisdrummer]

Sounds like Nirvana!!

Wow Right!!!

[jem74]

Saw them open up with this in 1997 at the Strand Theatre, Providence!!

[AJFA1988]

kurts proud of this one. lol

[gurujoe1985]

Rock on Dave!

You kick ass!

[racingboyy321]

this is the best screamo song everr dave grohls letting it rip :L

[theaceofspades39]

not screamo, screamo is part screaming and emo(gay) this is just hard rock

[SoKrItIcAl]

@racingboyy321 this isnt screamo...

[ledzeppelin1199]

this song has one of the coolest guitar lines i've ever heard.

[gurujoe1985]

lol

[MultiErika123456789]

@M1ndGraffiti well damn right

[xxLAURSIExx]

I'm normally not into screamo but this is good ! :D The Foos are awesome - no doubt about it !

This song is so going to be my new angry song LOL :)

[calmlunatic]

It's not really screamo though, is it? Just a purely awesome aggressive song. Love it!

[xxLAURSIExx]

I guess not... he just likes to scream his balls off LOOL.

It is an awesome aggressive song - I totally agree :)

[calmlunatic]

That made me laugh (not out loud, just quitely to myself).

[xxLAURSIExx]

As long as you laughed

[jackmaster3000]

ok demetri martin xD

[Mottored]

Sounds kinda like Fu Manchu meets Dave Grohl when he's in a bad mood. lol. Kool song.

[RATMfan92]

Easily their best album. Old school Fighters are the shit. :P

[lolfearme]

I think this song, judging by the lyrics, is related to bullying. The reason the song is so loud and chaotic is to represent the fear a victim might feel.

[lolfearme]

Why the hell was I minused?

Small-minded idiots.

[raymonnr1]

@lolfearme

more like the hatred from that victim towards the bully then .

[iLLmaticV3]

Dave Grohl's voice in this song is amazing!

[newjerseywhip]

i hate screamo screamo grungey screamo is the most amazing thing in the world, sounds like Kurt left Dave a little gift before he died

[EverydayConvicts]

YES, they can deffinatley pull off screamo! i normally HATE it but they pull it off =D

[gameiroH]

WOW! SCREAMO!!!

[pollsayspaul]

this song remember me to nirvana

[somguy33]

Is thius the heaviest Foo Fighters song or WHAT?

[thethirdbro]

This or FFL

[subliminalcage]

the band chose to name the album the COLOUR and the shape in honour of the producer who was english and always wrote it down colour isntead of color he died shortly after recording and they did that in his memory

[thisusersuck]

Gil Norton still alive

[Evansharma]

We all need to get this into our old C.A.T.S. album

[YousickToo]

WHY DOES MY COPY OF THIS ALBUM HAVE NO GODDAMN BONUS TRACKS? THESE ARE AWESOME!!! I'm gonna have to YouTube Rip them...

[MrGafer9847]

now that's what i'm talking about! some real rock n roll right here not all that girly stuff

[Lancer790]

Dude, he was totally doing Kurt here. Its sounds like a sound Kurt would write/make

[suikogarden]

I wonder who's the drummer in this song. Either William Goldsmith or Grohl himself. Since this song came from the earlier sessions of TCATS, I would like to think it was Goldsmith who played the drums.

[jagcag123]

taylor hawkins i think

[Ian6178]

this song scared the living crap out of me!!!but now i like it :)

[foolsgoldsoma]

Quite possibly one of the best Foo songs besides Podunk and Weenie Beenie.

[jagcag123]

everlong, the pretender, watershed

[afroheaded12]

SWEET JESUS

[puma0927]

when i heard the beginning i thought it was stacked actors! LOL!

[thesoulman573]

i think this is the foo fighters best album, it's one of my favorite albums of all time. It's got so many good songs. Like this one, it's underrated. I think this whole album is kinda underrated. Still I love the song and album. Foo Fighters rock!

[Blazio95]

I agree. It's way underrated. That's because it's only now that they are getting commercial recognition. I think that's too bad, as it means that people are busy listening to Echoes instead of listening to this fantastic album.

[octavarium8818]

yeah, even though some of the biggest hits are from that album, (everlong, my hero, monkey wrench) the entire rest of the album is underrated. and espg is actually underrated too, cus everyones saying its terrible and the only good songs are the pretender and let it die or whatever.

[Joelovesmattias777]

you seem like a hardcore foo fan.

aren't you upset that their last two albums steered away from they normal sound?

[octavarium8818]

yeah, i love the foo fighters, always have. i only think of it as a new chapter in their career. some of my favorite songs of theirs are on the 2 most recent albums. theyve made some really great songs on these albums, and i was a bit upset at first, but i realised they were still great records. my favorite album is still colour and the shape but i still think the new ones are pretty rad.

[AsMhMoOt]

It has the same sound you just have to listen to them again. I really like there new stuff after i went back and gave it a chance. Check out erase/replace its amazing.

[jagcag123]

i know dude i like espg a lot i dont get why people dont like it

[octavarium8818]

i dont either, its a such a rad album. i personally think all Foo Fighters albums are totally killer.

[Joelovesmattias777]

fuck off, this band have been huge for ages!!!

[Blazio95]

Yeah, but for the hits. I'm a HUGE Foo Fighters fan, but even I know that they are most famous for their singles and videos.

Yo man, there's no need to swear. It doesn't really matter anwyay- it's all about the MUSIC.

[Joelovesmattias777]

yeah true there was no need for me to swear. but even you must know that...

what happened to this band!?

in your honor was ok but it was down hill.

and the new one....damn!

what happened!?

[AsMhMoOt]

Last album was great! Why don;t you like it.

[bleachfan7747]

u spelled color wrong dick face

[nastybastard21]

no he didnt thats the way foo fighters spelled it

[Telepothead]

you retard,that's the way it was spelled on the album.

[sandsunfoofighterbum]

not to mention its the Australian way of spelling it

[octavarium8818]

and British.

[JRFproductions]

yeah, I they spelled it colour because one of the producers or music directors was british. So it was a way of dedicating a bit of it to him.

[Ian6178]

dude thats how its spelled on the album retard

[JRFproductions]

No, colour is spelled that way on the album, dick face.

[gheffty93]

@marveldude162 dude shut up there is no right way between the two, just different versions

[marveldude162]

@gheffty93

I don't particularly want to get into some sort of battle on here, but for the sake of grammar, I will leave this comment. The correct spelling of colour is as I just wrote it. In the US, they spell it color. This is the incorrect way of spelling colour. There are other things that are also spelt incorrectly in the US, but lets not get into that.

[marveldude162]

@marveldude162

Also, particularly as I love the Foo Fighters and this song either way, I'm not going to have a fight about a U :)

[gheffty93]

@marveldude162 I really hate you. You are the epitome of the arrogant Englishman. here is something we spell the same...fuck you. That spelled correctly for you? Just like there are TWO types of French (France and Canada) and Spanish (Spain and Mexico) there are TWO types of English (US and British). Get out of your ignorant narrow minded little box and accept other things for what they are. EITHER way works, now stop acting like you are better than everyone else you asshole.

[marveldude162]

@gheffty93 Like I said, I really can't be bothered to get in a fight over a u. You spell it how you want.

I am not ignorant, I know that americans have decided to spell it differently, I thinkl it is incorrect. Nor do I think I'm better than everyone else, I know for a fact I'm not. So why don't you get the fuck off you high horse, stop acting like a twat and back off?

[gheffty93]

@marveldude162 whatever dude if u didnt want to get into an argument u shouldnt have responded...and u cant be bothered to? please get our head out of the clouds buddy. i really dont understand how u think a different take on spelling a word can be incorrect but w.e be arrogant.

[marveldude162]

@gheffty93 I'm trying to defend myself, rather than just roll over. Yes, I can't be bothered to, I'm not going to sit here for hours trying to defend the proper spelling of a word, like I said, I'm just trying to defend myslef here. Also, I think you should look up the word arrogant, because our definitions seem to differ. As to how I can think a different take is incorrect, well if I sat and wrote color spelt like that in an exam, I would definately lose marks.

[gheffty93]

@marveldude162 whatever dude i cant win an argument with someone so sure of their biased views. Oh well, don't try to pull this crap in America!

[lakajd]

sounds like scentless apprentice in a way...which dave partly wrote

[ojasb]

this is what a nirvana fan would've expected to be dave grohl's new band back in 95 :B

[Diomenesx]

Any idea on the lyrics meaning? My guess is a (a really fucked up) bully talking (screaming) to a defenseless kid. Any other ideas?

[PedrosProductions]

this reminds me of nirvana... too bad foo fighters evolved from their grunge roots

[X7NIRVANA7X]

god it sounds so much like nirvana

[tillison4304]

if anyone has this song plz nd it to me!! just msg me cheers:)

[jamithegreat]

i dunno why this missed out on the final cut when my poor brain and wind up made it. this fookin rocks.

[8174478159]

i know the music is similar and this song kicks ass plus the screaming is awesome to hear every now and then rock on foo fighters!

[tillison4304]

im guessin they dint put this on the final becasue the album isnt this type ov music but daymn is it one amazing song!!! id love 2 here this live hha that wud b sick!

[V3ND3TTA47]

i cant download this annyware, im kinda pissed off
