Foo Fighters live @ Yahoo Live Sets 2007 - My Hero

[winnetouch]

This must be the most epic performace of this song of all time :D. You can see the fun they are having on stage and off stage. The arangement is simply amazing too :D

[himjill]

Anyone that would unlike this, has no taste

[trulynot]

Fantastic, love the emotion that Taylor puts into his playing, and great to see Pat back.

[RockFonsy]

FUCK!! that's pat smear!!!

[trulynot]

@RockFonsy Yeah, great to see him up there.

[blindbrowneyes]

you know my hero,

the one that's on.

Dave.

[Snoopa90]

whats up with that yahoo shit at the end

[speakingincolor]

@Snoopa90 its a Yahoo video

[TearsOfWar1]

I got their Skin and Bones album. One of the best albums EVER. That is all.

[JakobSanogo]

Könnte ich den ganzen tag hören :)

[soccerguitarman90]

that little piano solo kills me every time..im tryna learn that

[001001011010]

taylor here reminds me of a younger dave on drums

[x2badx56]

That was absolutely amazing! Wasen't this writen for Kurt after he died?

[Dope999]

No definitely not. No Foo Fighters song is about Kurt, although Friend of A Friend was written during the time of Nirvana.

[Vader9]

At Nirvana's last studio session, I heard that Kurt drummed on some of Dave's songs that supposedly eventually ended up on the Foo Fighters first self-titled album.

[GodOfWahr]

E to C#m9

GREAT CHORDS

[buknoy101482]

Sorry to correct you man it's actually E to G#m7 not C#m9:-) then F#m then Am

[footluke]

i think its better wiv electric guitars but dis 1 is still class

[maleproz]

I want to know where Jessie Greene (the violinist) drinks at weekends ;-)

[crashsmash01]

FOO FIGHTERS ARE AWESOME WOO HOO XP

[MrDrRock]

You gotta love The Colour and Shape album.

[tenatiousd123]

thts y dave is such a great guy cause he did it pretty much himself apart from nate on bass

[emoisxitdud]

fuckin awesome!

[hint0458]

DAMN YOU DAVE GROHL!!! you are so talented, i cannot help but to envy your skills. acoustic or not, you are a magician!

[leahpar1234567]

paramore has a version of this too ryt??

[Guitarloonatic]

Yeah.

[Nevermind900426]

yepp and it stinks :)

[Vixxtorious]

Another great performance by the Foo Fighters... Dave Grohl cannot ever step a foot wrong as an artist. Love his work!!! ROCK ON!!!

[pipandrew]

wow foo fighters are my faverouite band but daves voice is rlly messed up in this song

[Skoog13]

maby a little bit, but I think it sounds good anyways;-)

[Kevo216666]

This needs to be performed with the London Philharmonic. It would be awesome.

This is a nice version though.

[paulengelking]

can anybody hear the bass at all?

[Ritaliation]

i could

[Skoog13]

ofcourse i can

[bobbymilner123]

im not tryin to take away from nivana but i think that if kurt never shot himself people would not of known about nirvana.. im not tryin to take anything away though there a fukin nasty band.. i think the foo fighters are way better though. ROCK ON!!!

[justcaz9971]

everyone new about nirvana before though

[Cyclonicbox]

Dude wtf?

Nirvana and Foo fighters are both great bands

Also there is a little thing to be said

if Dave was never in Nirvana he probably never would have had made Foo Fighters. Before Dave join nirvana he was in punk stuff. so he probably would have never choose this road.

[sharty5000]

no he definetly would have, he was in a band called scream before this, and he did some demos with him singing, and he just happened to be in nirvana that made him famous. even before nirvana was famous he wrote a couple songs you hear on foo fighters records like "friend of a friend, big me, and marigold." although nirvana helped him get out in the music world more, he still would be just as famous as he is right now

[jonesismyname]

Who gives a fuck which bands better. They are two totally different bands! Just because Dave was in both bands doesnt mean you have to compare them. You dont compare Alanis Morissette to Foo Fighters just because they had the same drummer...do you??

[erickvilla19]

finally!!! a comment that makes sense...

the comparisons will never end though, the world is filled with idiots who will try to find differences and similarities between the 2 bands and "decide" which band is better. Having said that, in my opinion dave has acoomplishes much more than kurt ever did.

[mattawesome10]

we all miss u KuRT! -Our Hero-

[kurdtbryan]

dude nirvana and foo fighters are both amazing in almost completely different ways foo fighters are are a happier sounding band dave grohl, music wise, wrote better songs than nirvana. and on a different note nirvana would have never gotten famous if it wasnt for daves drumming. listen to old nirvana and u can hear an emptiness to the sound dave made nirvana way better u guys wouldnt even care if it wasnt for dave so shut foos are better

[Hardway91]

good song

[harlemner]

Kurt

[dash1988]

i agree grohl is a fucking legend and i prefer foo's to nirvana foo fighters RHCP and QOTSA top 3 bands on earth in my oppinion.

[harlemner]

nirvana all day you suck cock foo boy..this song is great though

[redhotxxchili]

dude foos beat the shit out of nirvana, they have so much more talent

[jeffey02]

best version of my hero

[rammsfan4145]

Foo Fighters have to be my favorite band of all time....no offense to Nirvana fans but, Foo Fighter songs a broader range of emotion, where grunge was so self hating....Well anyways funny about the Paramore comment cause I had some Emo kid tell me the Foo Fighters stole "My Hero" from Paramore,...Paramore and other newer bands should hope and pray they become this high a quality of band and be able to stay at the top for 13 years!!! and there still not done!!! Dave Grohl is my Hero!!!

[marccrowther]

here here

[crazedfan7589]

i agree with everything that you just said.

[iquierodover]

@rammsfan4145 hell ya dude

[speakingincolor]

@rammsfan4145 I'm am a huge fan, but Paramore isn't really an emo band...

[theunderscoresheep]

god i love this video...

i have watched this soooo many times haha

dave grohl is the best!

i love him

but ya gotta admit that he is a better drummer than guitarist...

not saying he is a bad guitarist

he fuckin rocks!!!

but he is just an awesome drummer!!!

Foo Fighters are the BEST!

[leftyguitarman27]

The name's dave. Kurt is dead. (RIP). And, although it is your opinion that he is a better drummer than guitarist, it is his opinion that he is a better guitarist than drummer.

[jcentertainment92]

lol

that's not Kurt!

That's Dave Grohl!!!

haha

what an idiot

[Muglezz]

dammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm­nnnnnnnn i love 'em

[Fookid606]

i was front row at red rocks best night of my life

[Iamallamafarmer]

Great song!

[Meteors916]

oh you did not just call him Kurt.

[SirHuckenden]

nice rugs

[bubblegummonky]

Really good bril live!

[richichi]

many thanks for posting this!

[MarcS4R]

this is just so goood....sooo fucking good...

[flammablice]

haha, there are some weird carpets on stage

[cdNirvanafooFighters]

hey i don't know if kurt and dave were very good friends probably yeah but seriously i never hear dave saying that he miss kurt in public.

sorry for my bad english i'm from quebec

[flammablice]

omg, there are so many videos of him talkin about kurt on youtube

[cdNirvanafooFighters]

yes i know but i never heard dave saying that he miss kurt and u?

[borkborkborkonurmom]

i saw this video called the evolution of rock or something like that where dave said if he could have one thing it would be that kurt was still alive

[cdNirvanafooFighters]

yeah it's a great thing cause when i see dave talking about kurt he seems like he have no emotion

[zero88777]

god im sick of people saying EVERY SONG BY THE FOO'S IS ABOUT FUCKING KURT COBAIN!!! they arnt god cant a song JUST be a song?

[TXrangers93]

amen to that brotha..

amen to that

[mcziggyjake23]

just to piss zero88777 off...tribute to kurt.

roflmao! :)

[roamablucac]

RHCPfanRyan, the comment "hahahaha" was a reaction on straightup69's "die NOW" coz i asked "who the hell said that paramore wrote this song?"..well anyway, before you say anything read the comments below you dumbshit!

[roamablucac]

hahahaha

[roamablucac]

who the hell said paramore wrote this song?!?

[griffinsilver216]

yo guys im sooooooo sry about the "comment". i had gotten up to take a massive piss. and then my asshole little brother came on (i had paused it during the intro) and he thinks he knows everything about ff. hes an idiot. srry guys.

[colin911111]

This has to be the best version of my hero I've heard.

[Tyranny82]

ive written this on many videos, but I'd have to say this is the best acoustic song I've ever heard. Sounds like a damn orchestra and I love it.

[KnightsHuSayNee]

I think the acoustic version is great, but I wish that they would do the rock version more often live. Only times that I've heard them do the rock version live was at live earth and the hyde park show, besides that i've just heard this version live

[RandRproductions777]

i think its better acoustic! this rocks!

[Chubzdoomer]

This song reminds me a lot of how, when I was younger, I highly admired local athletes - on high school football teams, mostly - as if they were superheroes. I'm not sure if anyone can relate, but this song brings up a lot of those emotions for me.

[southernlovin85]

Funny that you should say that. During the time we had a minor league hockey team in town, this song would play whenever the team "hardass" would be ejected after receiving a fighting major.

[Chubzdoomer]

Which moron chose this song for that purpose? They should have played something like the COPS theme song (just to ridicule the hardass) or something along those lines. :P

[southernlovin85]

The music selection was really lacking.

[fuckinfuck2312]

beautiful

[PaulaMoon0]

Muito bom!

[tdz92]

i think this version is better than the original song

[badmagick1234]

les pauls? do you know kurt cobain. he never played a les paul.

[sharty5000]

yea he liked stratocasters

[JMA9179]

stratocasters suck

[sharty5000]

i hate them too, but kurt loved them

[foofightin1112]

Other than my husband, Dave Grohl is my hero.

[xlxkaylaxlx]

this is amazing

i love when they're all singing on mass

[ninaderanja]

epic

[ninaderanja]

beautiful song

sound so great in this version

[freeebirdd]

this song has all the perfect elments and this video shows it

[MistaGent]

No this song is about ordinary people such as firefighters, police, etc. Dave Grohl didn't have any BIG heroes as a child and wrote this about the REAL heros of everyday life.

[thebung123]

right on, mistagent.

[lazy347]

noo.... he wrote it for kurt! =/

[fetisov02]

wow this sounded great acoustic style.

[victorchalegre93]

yahOOOOOOOOOOooooO

[67191703]

is true that this song is dedicated to Kurt Cobain, sorry for my english.

[cuda440]

it's better english than most americans

[lazy347]

true, true.. =)

[LarryM032]

holy shit that was amazing

[00BlueMonday]

THIS IS MUSIC.

This song is great, I love 2.13.

[gijsers]

i dont like pat

but its a opinion

[YourDogIsCatNow]

i think hes pretty cool.

[mallussionist]

does anyone have this song in mp3 yet?

[smnpdrgl]

Pat is in the house

[Badmotorfinger8]

Hurray for Pat Smear!

[mapleleafsrock13]

music at its best.

[danilomistake]

man

its so crazy

like dave is pouring his heart out and they are the words i look for when i do the same

talented

good shit

oh happy thanksgiving all

[turbopippip]

This song and the way it is done here... It's just wonderful.

Foo Fighters at it's best!

[feuerfuchs8]

saw them in Munich on October 30th...they're so great

[paulspursman]

cant wait to see them live 2 weeks and 2 days to go lol

[Collegelovr]

I LOVEEEEEEEEEE it when they have the piano in this song!!!!

[dave1x1]

what a great song. A classic. FF best band in the last decade

[ItsJustMeAndTheMusic]

i totally agree.

[77GUITARHERO77]

best band ever!

[MasterCheffing]

why lol it wasent his song it was the leader of nervana

[griffinsilver216]

its about kurt cobain cos he was dave grohls hero. and this is about when he died... may there be white clouds and les pauls in heaven Kurt R.i.p

[Collegelovr]

what?? I thought it was about how Dave always looked up to "ordinary people who did extraudinary things." And particularly, I thought it was about a bunch of firefighters who died during a fire(hence the idea for the video)

Not about Kurt.

[gomster1111]

Thats what ive read as well, its about everyday people who are the "quiet" heros of our society

[AunitProductions]

im tired of people saying the foo fighters songs are all about cobain

[dazzerd]

According to Grohl, the song is dedicated to ordinary, everyday heroes, as he himself never had musical or sports heroes growing up as a child.

[YourDogIsCatNow]

except led zep

[korvlada]

its not about kurt

[sharty5000]

yea its just regular people that are fucking awesome

[hooley182]

Hit the nail on the head there :)

[OblivionKBB44]

while that could be a nice statement, unfortunately it is not true. It is about everyday people who do extraordinary things.

[lukemc2]

who really cares its a good song

[KnightsHuSayNee]

I've heard dave said that he gets sick of people saying that all of the foos songs are about kurt because it gives the message that kurt was the only important person in his life

[redhotxxchili]

ive heard that hes also a little ashamed about nirvana, not necessarily about kurt, but the things that they got into. if you look at the foos myspace nirvana isnt even on the influence list

[stedyedy23]

What do you mean? Like drugs and the bad life they were living kinda thing?

[loathingh3rmit]

dude, paramore covered this song o_O

[bubblegummonky]

soz my m8z always tell me stuff and that was one of those things soz

[syracuse9898]

you should check out some more foo fighter stuff, if you think paramore is good, foo fighter stuff will blow you away. also listen to the rock version of this song. better than any version

[straightup69]

die

NOW

[RHCPfanRyan]

your comment rates in the top 3 stupidest things ever said on youtube.

[roamablucac]

RHCPfanRyan, the comment "hahahaha" was a reaction on straightup69's "die NOW" coz i asked "who the hell said that paramore wrote this song?"..well anyway, before you say anything read the comments below you dumbshit!

[RHCPfanRyan]

Damn, I don't know what to say because that was over a month ago, and Im sure had you have said that back then as well, i still woul have said I dont care. Im sorry i dont spend my life checking the backrounds on all the comments. I have a life to attend to beyond youtube comments.

[fila365]

OMG u didnt not just say paramore wrote that! OMG bubblegummonky u really should never EVER listen to music again! Seriously!

[bubblegummonky]

look im sorry i didnt relise

[NorthernIrish]

LOL, retardation 1 - 0 humanity.

[empiresellscrack]

dave needs to do an acoustic version of rape me

[mahgiublin]

yahoo's been doing a great job :D

[RockinRowdyRoberto]
