Foo Fighters - Learn To Fly (Live on Letterman)

[spikehammy2003]

You. Are. Gods!

[robogizmoe]

and love the sound of semi hollow guitars there sound more clear

[robogizmoe]

dang he tuned it quick too , it didn't sound out off tune to me but when its your own song you do hear it at least for me

[Segall1988]

Foo Fighters !!!! Kocham tą kapele :*:) Coś niesamowitego xD

[ELSKYO]

foo fighters really own life which most bands don't

[azhariwarman]

@ELSKYO Agreed. I hope all good bans out there can have the life Foo Fighters have!

[eddiestanley23]

love them

[martinsitow1411]

los mejoresss...........

[fatalbetrayal2011]

The irony in the top comments right now is just great :')

[sLyrokr]

the beatles were the foo fighters of the 60'

[AtomMoza]

เรียนรู้ที่จะบิน !

[retroge]

@AtomMoza agreed

[retardedyusra]

WOW why is my comment at the top? hahaha I'm shocked!

[delebru]

sing, play the guitar and tune it all at the same time without making any mistakes by Dave Grohl

[2912tato]

@delebru reference genius

[theLazyiestTurtle]

Love the beatle get up.

[pagepuh]

This particular song you choose is certainly spectacular!

[abismosonico]

Qué chingón es volver a ver a Foo Fighters con Pat Smear

[iloverizal]

the melody is similar to big me

[TheAlexiesi]

Fly along with me, I can't quite make it alone

Try to make this life my own

[mrBlakethesnake1991]

Does anybody care about the beatles joke they pulled on this i think its awesome classic foo... couldnt do their cartoonish antics so they settled for this

[monmon666]

The crowd is so fucking boring!!

[grkmylmz87]

2m38s MOM!!!

[heyysimone]

youtube, stop with the ads. i wanna watch the foos.

[AlejandroCespedes1]

@Crellin1000 relax man :S , Foo Fighters is amazing :D

[JuliaMissBrightside]

Guys, with your songs I learn to fly!

Thanks.

[g4dS]

FF is getting better and better over the years.. dave is awesome!

[AlejandroCespedes1]

haha 0:36 to 0:39 Dave tuning his guitar

[sealedforproctection]

9 people don't have wings

[MrGamerX101]

AH this was released on my birthday FUCK YEAH!!

[Neilfrozn]

The Foo Fighters suck live. I take the studio video, thanks.

[oweenacow]

@Neilfrozn fuck you

[jewvinile5454]

@Neilfrozn they suck? dude, are you kidding me? Sure, Dave's voice isn't as amazing as it is in studio, but I've never seen any other band have the exact same sound, so go figure. They are pretty damn good if you ask me musically.

[Neilfrozn]

@jewvinile5454 There are MANY bands who can reproduce their music live. The reason I would go and see a band live is because I like the way the studio version sounds. Just a few examples are Rush, Yes, Thousand Foot Krutch, The Moody Blues, Skillet, Journey, and there are many more.

[jewvinile5454]

@Neilfrozn You can't accept perfection from every performance. I saw them last May and he sounded great

[Heymcfly82]

@Neilfrozn You deaf fucker.. you try to go on tour and sing over and over and OVER again. and see how ya do.. you couldn't even hold Daves guitar pick so STFU!

[Neilfrozn]

@Heymcfly82 I don't get paid thousands of dollars to tour and play live. I if he can't do it, then he should stay home. And by the way, just because we differ in our opinions, try and be mature enough to leave out the name calling. There is plenty of music out there for all of us to enjoy.

[MrMrNelsonjr]

@Neilfrozn they're better than a lot of these bands nowadays, who can't sing for shit live. FF are badass.

[polypolyman]

@Neilfrozn Grohl's voice seems to be going for these sessions... I've heard these guys live before, and I can say they are wonderful. I'm sorry you have such a bad opinion

[Neilfrozn]

@polypolyman Thanks for the resonable response. We don't have to agree, but we can still have a good discussion.

[kero9rainbow]

0:38

WTF is Dave tuning his guitar and performing in the same time??

[SoFarNoGood]

@kero9rainbow yes when i saw them live he was sining bridge burning and tuning his guitar at the same time...pretty bad ass if you ask me..because most guitar players would throw their guitar to their tech and get another one.

[sethum999]

@kero9rainbow and pressing his effect without missing a beat.

[lifeplansvansdance]

@sethum999 he is pressing the tuner :)

[BlackdogScratch]

@kero9rainbow

YES! Briefly, then he went to an effect on the floor. Generally... if you have a tuner, it is ALWAYS on.

[AlejandroCespedes1]

@kero9rainbow That was my comment..

[sourboydrummer]

@kero9rainbow he tunes because he cares

[MrCrazedmaniac]

@kero9rainbow Following in the footsteps of kurt ;)

(kurt did it in the music video for smells like teen spirit)

[jeresbasso]

@kero9rainbow yep but thats not nothing awesome ! lol !

[RocomSocom]

@kero9rainbow there's two other guitarists you moron he stopped tuned up and started once the chorus went in (facepalm)

[DavisThe8th]

@RocomSocom facepalm ?! knee in your stupid face you mean !!!

Oh wait. He/She might be 6-8 yrs old.

@kero9rainbow we all know he's special

[spinkicker27]

tes

[ROCKINPURPLE9]

fly don't get high

[Acorporate3world]

both of the top comments are extremely gay

[negativewierdo]

@Acorporate3world yes your comment is pretty gay

[dev19971]

@Acorporate3world i was just gunna be liek JERK xDDDDDDDD

[Dodge12Fan]

One of the few bands left that can actually play awesome live

[Numbuh24]

hahahaha @0:36

I loved to watch him tune his guitar while singing xD

[retroge]

Kurt, you'll save Dave?

[soulevolving]

can't understand this, he is hiding behind his hair and not finishing the lyrics, it one of the most brilliant songs ever, think this performance is really below par for them :( but suppose being on letterman would put the frightners on anyone lol :D

[TheMrAwesomeDx]

@soulevolving he's losing his voice.

[polcooler]

where's the original music video!? :((

[spade827]

lol 0:09 bum note there!

[spade827]

lol 9:00 bum note there!

[ryanstuf]

lol 0:38 dave is tuning his guitar

[spade827]

/watch?v=_wN-KUH6HRo

CHECK THIS!!!!!!!!!!!

[Catalinplay]

from now on I'm gonna wear my suits "foo fighters" style

[oaxaca911]

i dont get why they have 3 guitarists!! ...i'm used to just 1

[SomeRandom90sGuy]

@oaxaca911 One for rhythm, one for lead, and another for fills and accents, and sometimes doubling up. Or in foos case, just that added extra on certain songs

[Jimmy116]

@SomeRandom90sGuy Why do they need a lead guitarist when to my knowledge none of their songs have solos? Surely Pat's just there to give Dave a break now and then?

[SomeRandom90sGuy]

@Jimmy116 I hope your kidding lol, loads of foo songs have solos, like half their songs! You clearly know nothing about guitars lol, if you just had one guitar playing, and going into solos alone, the songs would sound drab and empty

[pipezapatamusic]

Listen to my version of Learn To Fly by Foo Fighters.

[retardedyusra]

9 PEOPLE NEED TO LEARN TO WALK FIRST

[DeeTroll]

@retardedyusra THERES A FOO'S SONG FOR THAT!

[SilverFoo79]

@retardedyusra OMG!! Hilarious! I totally LOL'd outloud!

[retardedyusra]

@SilverFoo79 hehehe, cheers buddy!

[MisterBabyBlues]

[retardedyusra]

[LTdrumma]

[IPurpleDucks]

[tswars]

Fly!! along whit me.. i can´t quite make it alone... trying to make this life my own! .. :)

[turtlefanrecords]

run and tell the angels every thing's......ALLLL RIGHIT!!!!!!

[Dev0Tii97]

I hate it when people compare God To Dave Ghrol. I mean hes good, but hes no Dave Ghrol

[ludocrat]

@Dev0Tii97 lol

[ludocrat]

Very Beatley, right? Yeah, I perceive that was the concept. Oh dear.

Dave Grohl has got a very, very big fucking ego man. Great (truly great) song, but he ain't t no John, Paul or any of the real greats - and never will be.

[MikeysBlues24]

@ludocrat true. he ain't no John or Paul. that's because he's Dave Fucking Grohl.

it's asinine to go about comparing Dave to the Beatles. heck, even comparing any musician to another is completely stupid.

LOL :))

[ludocrat]

@MikeysBlues24

Grohl's the one being asinine. What do you think he meant dressing like that? Humble homage?? He meant "we're the new fucking Beatles - but better!" Like I said, BIG fucking ego!

But he wouldn't be a rock god if he didn't I s'pose. Very conflicting.

[MikeysBlues24]

@ludocrat oh, you're sure about that now?

did you pry open his head and analyzed his thoughts to figure that out?

sheesh. what's so fucking wrong about dressing up like the beatles?

In John Mayer's Where the Light is DVD, in the blues set, he wanted the trio to dress up beatles style. I suppose you'd think the same of Mayer because of that.

anywho, you could whine here all day while they're out there making a fuckload of cash.

have a nice life :P

LOL

[ludocrat]

@MikeysBlues24

Yah, I hear your points Mikey, but no one dresses up like Dave Grohl do they? Isn't that interesting?

Anyway, you have a damn nice life too, brother. And I mean that.

[MikeysBlues24]

@ludocrat I wish I could, "have a nice life too".

hard to find people that I could have decent conversation with. heck, even intelligent back and forths like this would suffice. a lot of these people in college are such big retards.

I haz a disappointing :))

[Kakurame]

WHERES MY TENACIOUS D?

[KyleAB5000]

@Kakurame

lolwut?

[Kakurame]

@KyleAB5000 The video of Learn to Fly features Tenacious D

[KyleAB5000]

@Kakurame

so, that doesnt mean their always gonna be with em everytime they perform this song -_-

[cenitri]

don`t you shiver?

[renatix89]

come mai un nuvo chitarrista? COMO ASI UN NUEVA GUITARRISTA?

[BassMasterMX]

3:23 - me da hueva, comere un flan.

[powercross]

Is it me or does Chris look like the guy from 500 Days of Summer?

[TheDimitraaaa]

@powercross hmm, i think it's just you. :)

[robpm9996]

I'm so glad Pat's back!

[forzamicha46]

Hell yeah now the whole world is learning to fly.... !

[RHCPACDCLZ]

9 people didn't learn how to fly

[snapascrew]

@RHCPACDCLZ GOOD ONE!!

[mrvern2u]

Live n concert all sounds like shit

[hurge3]

They created Green Day Rock Band but not Foo Fighters Rock Band.

Where the hell is going that world?

[ztiberiusd]

@hurge3 dude thats because the foos are good enough not to sell out like green day did!!

[ZombieMonkey742]

Foo Fighters Rock Band

[PumpkinsFan123]

Does this look like the Ed Sullivan Show where the Beatle's were on to anyone else?

[bchseenyah]

@PumpkinsFan123 i think that's more or less the point...check out taylor's kick drum. the letters are in the same design as the old beatles logo that was on ringo's kit.

[ZombieMonkey742]

Thumbs up if the foo fighters are ur favarite band

[AnalogBurnout]

How come My internet loads the dam ad all the way, but never the video...

[blenderhead14]

Lol he tuned his guitar. XD

[MrHimura92]

[cawcawcawkid]

pat smear is gettin old

[TADEU2121]

FOO FIGHTERS ON BEATLES!!!!!!!!!!

[feeren7]

9 people cant fly

[jimmyearl]

Dave got it wrong at 2:49, but he disguised his mistake with such grace... Theres nothing not to love about this awsome band!!!

[Dhamzzz6]

TAYLOR HAWKINS IS AMAZING !

[HairbrushIndustries1]

Dave Grohl. The only man who can headbang while singing coherently.

[lorreydrol]

They're all awesome. Not only Dave , everyone is always talking about Dave.

[lastass]

"Try to make this...AAAAHW YEEEAH!!!!"

[jonbajet]

@lastass hahaha i love it when he does that

[lastass]

@jonbajet yeah, that dude is pure fucking feeling up your ass...lol

Awesome!

[MattGuitLead]

xD i had about 40 answers "yeah it's the same guy" "you should die man"

"i'll found you and kill your family" "it's pat smear ! you fucker"

that was fucking funny thanls to all I was not sure that's all

[AnthonyDoesSOADcover]

Nirvana.........

[lamichoacana17jr]

jajajja..Cant see his face cuz he has a lots of hair... lol

[RavenSkyhhhhh]

I wonder if Dave ever just gets behind the drums every once in awhile and just jam out.

[dopewithabass]

@RavenSkyhhhhh Yup, he had a drum battle with Taylor once and last year he went on drums and Krist from Nirvana came on so Dave, Krist and Pat did Merigold live

[hurge3]

@RavenSkyhhhhh He did when he played TRIBUTE live with TENACIOUS D (Which im betting you know that its Jack Black's band, in which he appears in this very video clip, learn to fly. He and his guitar-partner Kyle Gass) lol

[rambodude19]

@RavenSkyhhhhh I'm sure he does. He drummed for Queens of the Stone Age. Check out the song No One Knows. I think that song shows his capabilities and they sure are glorious

[takerfan333]

Foo Fighters, think they're my new favorite band. Classy clothes, good guitars that aren't jacked up and just simple looking, and some of them got the big hair going. Everything about a truly great band :D

[drwaxxs]

@ju0ju45 Ahah ouais. personne ne sait sa.

[tswars]

tsss en letterman show!!... no maaaaaaa que buena canción!!!! =D

Momentos inspiradores

[villageboyak]

7 people haven't learned to fly.

[chavalit94]

my life suck without them and nirvana

[20sk]

Why are they dressed like the Beatles on Ed Sullivan show? Funny, but this music is very professional, bealtes would never be able to play something hard like that. !

[simonberton]

Pat ROCKS!!!

[TheDimitraaaa]

@simonberton all of them rock!

[darcass69]

@simonberton Amen Bro :)

[0520caucau]

[FishinGuitarMad]

[crimson00chin]

I'm nookie to the sky to save me

nookie for a sign of life

nookie for something to help me burn out bright

[WhiteFlashDrive]

Wtf. Why is there a dislike button?

[Beezaboy]

Pat smear shouldnt play in the verses. 2 Guitars isnt needed in that part. Chorus he can beef up the sound though :D

[DavidMark80s]

LONG LIVE FOO FIGHTERS \m/
