been a foo fan kinda since it all started with FECAL MATTER(yes there is no grohl there i know).no sense argueing my statment lol, i know what i mean, but this song is a perfect reason why you must see the foos to kno the foos. live is where its at...checkout HEY JOHNNY PARK on the EVERYWHERE BUT HOME DVD, its on youtube...thats the true version of the song....powerful!!!! and its filmed in my hometown...TORONTO CANADA peace...eh
@BeZerker3000 and he still does it to this day (not all tracks of course). Grohl recorded drums on better off (wasting light bonus track). he did some drum tracks for TINLTL too.
@JordMcDrummer as kids, Grohl was mates with a kid in his street called John Park. Dave has mentioned this song was a mash up of so many different ideas (lyrically), he couldnt think of one name to sum up the song so instead, having long since lost touch with his childhood friend, he would call it 'Hey, Johnny Park,' in the hope he would hear it and get in touch. Never heard whether the plan worked or not but it was a clever idea!
although he's the lead guitarist and vocals, dave had to do the drums on most of the songs on this album because there former drummer had left and taylor had not joined the foo fighters a bit after the album was released
@skoi87 You think they're narrow-minded for not knowing English? Not everybody lives in English speaking countries, you are the one that is narrow-minded. You don't know the language very well yourself, either; try some punctuation some time.
@09jpark this song is about dave grohl's childhood friend called johnny park, last time he saw him was when he was 14, he made this song hoping johnny park would call him, :)
@ROONTANG 2 years ago and someone replies for the first time..in 2 years most people have not used youtube in a year..the point DO NOT REPLY TO OLD COMMENTS...and yeah...93k views..when its by a kick ass band and has been us for 4 years..yeah..popular..
@lunarpking I know plenty of people who have used YouTube for 6+ years, myself included. Point being I'll reply to what ever comment I please, thanks. No need to be an arsehole about it.
This song reminds me back to my 7th Grade year, back when I had to stay home because of strep throat, and at the time this was like my most favorite song, so I was playing non-stop, while coughing myself to death. lol
This is one of my favorite foo fighters songs, and its not very popular, and i can't understand why. Excellent vocals, kick ass guitar riff, and great lyrics. What more could you ask for? Btw my favorite line in the song "eyes that can change from blind to blue", absolutely brilliant.
I don't think Dave Grohl needs to rip off Jon Bon Jovi in order to write a song. I think Grohl is a few steps above on the musicianship pecking order.
Love the song, I remember this was one of the first covers i learned with my last band. Reminded me of Weezer for some reason, not really the verse but the rest did. I'd definitely put this on the top 10 of the best FF song's so far.
nah, dont think we will shut the fuck up im a stupid fag that dont know shit, thats your new name by the way and do us all a favour and fuck off u reject
