I love this song. Every time i hear it, I have flashbacks of the 2200 mile roadtrip my Uncle and I took back when I was 17. Went to get my cousin in Texas and he needed a wingman.
One by One isn't a bad album so much as it is an inconsistent album. What's good on it is some of their best work; what's bad is some of their worst. This song is one of the very best they've ever done.
I feel like this song is about a person that has been pushed to the edge. whether from pain, anger, or loss. This person has decided that he won't stand for it any longer, and COMES BACK a Warrior, ready to take down the very obstacle that defeated him in the first place.
I like to think that this song is about dying, and how it is not over when we die. We all come back in spirit, and live forever. As long as you believe that is.
@stbukre .. You know, that's exaclty what I thought. I said to my friend "Hey, you wanna hear what song will be played in my funeral?" And I clicked this, read the newest comments, and what do you know, I have a funeralsongmate!
@Becken95 Yea, funerals are expensive these days so if ya wanna coordinate yours with mine we could play this song and save some green....wait I really wouldnt care cause I'll be dead. Good luck in the afterlife!
I had to root through a bunch of their albums to find this diamond! Totally worth it, I had always been a fan, but this really made me excited about their music again. Thanks guys!
Thanks for the comments guys. I'm not much of a Foo Fighters fan but I felt this song was always in the shadows when it should've been on the forefront.
I don't know if I've commented already, but holy shit, I can't help but to love this song. I've listened to it since I was young(er), and it still give me the shivers. The beginning is gasmic. I don't know why I haven't drawn anything dedicated to this yet. It's so bloody brilliant.
dave didn't like it because he felt they didn't spend enough time on it. but yeah, i agree, it's an awesome album, not sure why he's so hard on himself...
Sounds like a bit of a rip off of everything... Can't quite find myself in One By One. All My Life is good though. They 've become softer, more distant from what Nirvana used to be.
I think I find a little Come Alive, The Pretender, All My Life and But Honestly in this song. It's a great song to listen to. I always imagine the fall of or a loss(like a loved one) of a hero during the acoustic breakdown, after which the hero gathers strength and beats the bad guy once and for all. But I'm weird like that.
I do pity they didn't end with the same "For YOOOOOOOU" they do before the acoustic breakdown, cause that bit is fantastic.
this is my one of favorites on the album, if not for halo, lonely as you, have it all and times like these this would easily be my number one favorite.
This song is one of the best FF have... but as all you say... is not a song that everyone have listened... Along with everlong... these two are my favs!
I found myself listening to this song for a twelfth time right after I found it on my dads hardrive.I am going to post up a guitar video, if any of you want to learn the guitar part for this song.
One of their best songs, yet not many people have even heard it. I just bought the one by one cd and I heard it and I was like, wow, this is awesome why haven't I heard it yet?
fuck me! humans made this song, its to amazing to have been anything of this earth. Dave Grohl must be alien dudes. i really liked the video, the picture is very striking. Furious Riot you kick Ass. I will come back for more videos lol, see what i did there, anyway cheers dude; really enjoyed it. 5 stars.
