  • DAAAAAY AFTEEER DAAAAY!!!...

  • 1:08 Shut up bitch!

  • @woodsybkk hahahaha..... ur right m8, this doesnt look like a kitchen,

  • Good god that song is infinitely better live and I love it normally

  • love it. PUNT UIT.

  • sweet!!

    awesome!

    love the song!

  • Is his guitar a Gibson Songwriter Studio?

  • how does this song have less then 1000 likes?

  • It's really a shame this music doesn't continue after that amazing part at the end to an enormous rock. Still one of my favorites!

  • Foofighters Sacramento 2011...see you there !!!!

  • my uncle died at the age of 49 by a terrible disease called a.l.s. this was his favorite song, and whenever i listen to it it reminds me of him and all the things we did. he gave me my first electric "razor". haha. but to all of you haters. if you dont like it dont put hate comments, you try playin this song, or just dont listen to it! thats all i have to say.

  • The FF is the best concert I have ever attended. Can't wait to see them on October 16th in Phoenix. Anyone else going?

  • what a beautiful song, wish I could play like that... this is a fine example of how an amazing rocker such as Dave Grohl can perform such an incredibly relaxing piece...

  • I think that this song could be about whatever you want it to be about. I don't think that he's specifically said that it's about shaving or self-harm. That's the awesome thing about music. It could have a different interpretation for every person, it's just what that person thinks about it.

  • Dave Grohl is one beautiful being. He makes my heart expand and ache.

  • omg goosebumps. this was incredible! thank you for posting.

  • Beautiful

    

  • On my first day of guitar lessons my teacher asked me, "Who do you listen to." In my answer was Foo Fighters, he then picked up his guitar and started playing this, it was pretty awesome!

  • gotta love the build up at the end

  • Fuck jou!

    hertog jan..

    met je kut reclame...

  • @dudy555 WTF? ik snap et nie :p

  • Lovely song!!!

  • Yeah, pretty awesome, and that's just the first track of the Skin and Bones DVD. And it gets better - somehow. Great concert DVD; best two hours plus you'll spend.

  • i love this song

  • Guys, this song isn't about a literal razor or shaving... It's a metaphor...

  • i love that this song is about shaving and hes had facial hair since nirvana

  • Nine people hate shaving apparently

  • That build toward the end is just brilliant! :)

  • this is the best song .

  • I've never heard this before, but it sounds lovely!

  • Only Dave Grohl could write an epic song about the morning shave...

  • If this song makes you want sex with Dave, you must also include Josh Homme as a threesome, cuz he kinda helped create this masterpiece lol.

  • @WMackbd josh homme is sexy so it's all good

  • This song makes me weep.

  • if you want to impress a girl,learn this song.it helped me

  • @LMFAOKIDISHERE If you really want to impress a girl, write an even better song than this one. One song, one girl. With your own songs you can have all the girls.

  • @LMFAOKIDISHERE i would imagine!

  • @LMFAOKIDISHERE I think bigger problem would be to learn to play the guitar :)

  • Love the Gibson acoustic!

  • @kevinbesler They are cool but I really dont like the sound hes getting.

  • Just bought the Skin and Bones dvd yesterday

  • HONKY! THE POOS!!! TERRIBLE!!!

  • bahahaha. best song about shaving iv ever herd! Damn Grohl you mae everything soo perfect and beautiful.

  • Amazing song! Lyrics and all!!! Love the way he starts alone and the band joins in to just kill it! Ugh! Wish they brought their acoustic tour to SoFlo!

  • its so beautiful, u just listen and get blown away

  • this is way random, but one of the most psychedelic, lucid dreams I ever had had this song playing in the background

  • WAIT a tic. I definantly hear some Baba O' Riley influence at the end. yup. Complete with the accelerando and the viola/violin.

  • this song has helped me through some of the worst times in my life and i could not be more grateful to the fighters for writing it thank you!!!

  • i love this song. i know its about a razor but it makes me think of my niece everytime i hear it.

  • No doubt in my mind. Dave Grohl gets artist of the decade for the 00's. He gets it by a mile. No other artist compares.

  • @MKHutchencelick i wish that was true, he's definately the most talented, but i have no doubt in my mind that some no talent auto-tuned mainstream singer like usher or bieber or someone will get it. it's a shame.

  • @AwesomeRob365 Hey, Grohl is gold. Don't care what others think. I'm sure society has it's own idea of pop sensations for the 00's. Musically, Grohl gets my vote for the decade. Aint studying usher or bieber.

  • @MKHutchencelick i'm not saying i disagree that dave should get it, it's just he probably wouldn't get the majority vote among the fans. that's because all of the fans are mostly mainstream pop teens who don't know true talent. yes, dave SHOULD get it, i just have a dissapointing feeling that he won't.

  • I am extremely jealous of those gifted enough to not have to have learned to read or write music and have as much natural talent as Grohl, a natural musician. For those who fail to accept his talent, are truly depriving themselves of something special. I refuse to refer to anyone as a "god", but one of the most gifted musicians of our time suits well. I find it inspiring.

  • @bassEADG Amen

  • @bassEADG I agree with you in mostly everything, although I believe that what really gave him his "talent" was practice and creativity (although creativity is sometimes considered talent...).

    :)

  • esta cancion es demasiafo buena...

  • dave " god " grohl !!

  • i hope heaven is as good as this song

  • I play alot of foo fighter songs and for some reason this is the most difficult song to learn!!!!

  • This song is great I love anything that Dave and Joshua Homme do together

  • *__* so Beautiful

  • One of the most beautiful songs ever written and certainly the most beautiful song written by a rock artist. Dave Grohls finger work here is really good as well may not be the hardest thing to play if you've been playing for a little while but certainly is a great guitar part and one that must have taken time to come up with because this is the best and most original guitar part I've ever heard

  • *headbangs along with dave*

  • I'm not a huge fan of IYH, but I think this is one of the Foos' most brilliant songs. It's the plainest song about a guy shaving every day, yet those simple lyrics can be misconstrued for so many other things. I'm not sure if creating these parallels was intentional or not, but the fact that waking up and shaving every morning can be so easily mistaken for physical harm or an allegory about relationships is really telling about how people read into things. It's really cool, and a little freaky.

  • This is insanely beautiful.

  • I need you know I need you know tonight...

  • Comment removed

  • reminds me of nick drake :)

  • Dave's song writing abilities make me want to walk up to anybody and everybody and tell them everything I know about him (which is a lot of stuff), because he is so underrated. But then again, that's also what makes him so great, his group of true fans that love everything he does! I need to shake this man's hand at least once before I die.

  • Sick

  • 1:44 Patience, my dear; we could spend a lifetime waiting here.

  • Comment removed

  • maybe even sadder is that it has to be huge to be validated

  • if only i could have been there... best concert of all time!

  • love it!!!

  • i covered this tune.. didnt think i did too bad.. check it out!

  • that buildup is sick

  • One of the most underated songs, this song is amazing

  • if you want it dave, and you love it like so may others, it'll be there be it razor or pick let it eat you and it will...

  • anyone else think the occasional screaming/whistling in the background is annoying?

    yeah... we're all stoked he's killing it, shut your mouth and enjoy the song.

  • Dave Grohl speaks from my soul.

  • I seriously get goosebumps everytime I watch this... just amazing.

  • @4:11 love that look

  • He's such a talented bastard.

  • god, i love dave and foo fighters!!!!!

  • this song sounds really complicated but i learned it in 3 minutes

  • @TheAndrewandMark where did you get the tabs?

  • @TheAndrewandMark

    How do you learn a 6 minute song in 3 minutes?

  • @Aviator42009 because the whole song is repeating itself haha

  • everyone prepare to hate me. This is an amazing song don't get me wrong but IN MY OPINION Dave should stick to the drums even though he's drumming his ass off in them crooked vultures (far superior to the foo fighters IN MY OPINION)

  • YOURE RIGHT JASONA GF!!

  • when he sings sweet and divine...

  • @ImaCactusHugMe what about it? does it make you cumm in your pants

  • thumbs up for dave looking like jesus?

  • @JenkinsxD dave is jesus and god

  • this song became not huge, BUT that's the way it has to be, this song is for the real music lovers

  • Dave is the MAN!!

  • Epic, Kurt could never had written something like this.

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, good one

  • @mongolbarn123 just curious, how come you think kurt could never write a song like razor from the foos? do you think the guitar would have been too complicated for him?

  • how does this at all sound like the studio performance?

  • Dave Grohl is a LEGEND!!! Absolutely brilliant performance!

  • HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!! YEAH!!! That's how it is done!! Brilliant as always...Dave is a LEGEND!!

  • i just love this song!

  • i love when the live performance sounds just like the studio version

  • Y is daev Grohl so good?!!

  • The real question is why not.

  • 4:33 dave's face

  • hahahahahahaha!!!! funny

  • No, it's a song about how wonderful Sweden is.

  • @reallyjolle SWEEEDEEEN DIVINEE

  • dang i love how he just goes off in his little world at 4:33 makes it so much epic!

  • Never heard music for shaving=)

  • lol

  • LMAO night tow. but man foo fighters are so awesome. cant wait for the next album

  • its actually a dramatic song about shaving. :)

  • this is so easy to play

  • love this tune

  • FUCKING AWESOME!

  • this could be a metaphor of the sharp blade that they walk as being iconic heros to todays youth. they could go too far one way and be a bad example or too far the other and end up loosing fans

  • OR, maybe Dave is a cutter. he refers to his lucky scars in another song, and "another reason to bleed, one by one hidden up my sleeve"... hmmm??

  • @lemmiwinks79 That's exactly what I was thinking

  • The only song ff made about killing or harming yourself is Still Imho.

  • day after day, cutting away... but anyway

  • he could be talking about some one as being like a razor or if you think of him as being half way through the line the first time he sings it, the full line could be "razor blade shine" which is actually quite a nice description of a person, but with an edge! dunno just an opinion

  • SO the girl is a metaphoric razor? That does make plenty of sense, ty

  • I really dont believe its about self-harm at all. Maybe its cocaine, the verses don't really point toward self-mutalation.

  • he is referring the "razor" towards a girl. who is cutting away at him

  • I love how it goes all epic at the end, a lot of bands tend to over do it. Grohl and the gang nail it everytime.

  • Comment removed

  • If Dave Grohl inflicted self-harm, he would just shrug it off and then scream Best Of You.

  • this song never did become HUGE like I assumed it would. I think most people forgot about it. sad.

  • I know...I really love it. I have ppl listen to it and they can't believe it's FF

  • @Jasonagf yeaaaaahhhh ur completely right man! this is a very good song, quite simple and soo enchanting :)

  • @Jasonagf. I didn't! I think it's the best track of the FF! So much power and yet so sensitive
