FIRST AND FOREMOST, Dave Grohl is an extremely talented musician and singer and he does a wonderful job with this cover, but for some reason i just cant find myself grooving to it like i do when i here Freddie belt it out
@bott14 because those are some extremely big shoes to fill.... as much as I love Dave and Foo Fighters, there's no way he could sing like Freddie in fact very few people can....
@mrzaremba123 I believe it's called a guitar fill, he's played the song with just 1 guitar for ages so when adding another guitar it makes it sound weird, but it is a prelude to a guitar solo. If it was just him on guitar then it would sound better.
He's not trying to be as great as Freddy he's just singing his heart out Grohl's not the type of singer that tries to out do someone and besides mercury Grohl's my second favorite vocalist tied with Kurt Cobain and he was awesome thats why the remaining Queen members asked him to do it.
@Nevermind900426 Who cares where they are - if frikken Queen is present you best pay them the rocking respect they deserve - and you do that by getting up to your feet and destroying the place lol
I love Dave Grohl and the Foo's but he's just not up to stepping into Freddie's shoes vocally. Check out George Michael doing Somebody to Love Live at Wembley......he nails it!
Dave Grohl did a pretty good job! I thought, no offense to Dave (I look up to him as a musician) but, I thought it would be a bit worse. Really great job. Would have made Freddie proud.
soet ur head out grohl is a better musician than any queen member , no disrespect to rodgers or may im a fan myself but ur talkin crap my friend sorry t say
I have to disagree. Dont get me wrong...foo fighters are talented and all,their music is good,it rocks...but queen is LEGENDARY, have packed tens of thousands into stadiums on a regular basis(almost 500,000 in South America,for one show)...arguably one of the top ten biggest rock bands in history,with total album sales exceeding 300 million...with the foos selling about 8 million to date...obviously queen has been around much longer, but they are on two different levels
are you on drugs!? queen is legendary! hahaha! no need to argue to that dumbass! hahaha! queen is legendary....aight!? freddie mercury died.....is he remembered `til now? no! some might but not all! aight!? so u don't need to spit out non-sense........we all know that Queen is LEGENDARY as u say so.....we're not dumb as u! if u don't appreciate the foo's then shut up! not worthy? hahaha! then tell it to rodger and may! not to us! we don't need crap statement from a stupid guy like u!
@salamagogo "arguably one of the top ten biggest rock bands in history" (Queen)
WHAT ? arguably ? You then go on to mention album sales, if this is your basis, then Queen are I believe second only to the beatles in terms of album sales ! If you did not mean in terms of album sales then it is still a fair assumption to say that they are definately considered in the top 10 and actually vying for top spot ! For me, the talent of all members puts them at number 1....
Oh, no charm in his voice. Tough is a little curious to see this mix. The brutality and lack of finesse in Grohl's voice gives the song a different feel... Proving that Queen melodies are timeless. It feels fresh.
With the people sitting down having dinner in a somewhat conservative and reserved manner, im sure these guys got a real boost in performance with a kinda newfound punk aspect to it.
I remember seeing that show. It was horrible that the crowd was so dead. This was an amazing performance, it should get played more often on VH1.
I think its cause the crowd was filled with a bunch of singer-songwriter-loving-prudes. They wouldn't know rock or how to show excitement, cause they don't like messing up their fancy clothes.
It was an awesome performance filled with pure unadulterated joy and energy. Freddie Mercury would've been so proud.
OMF, it's a bunch of people at tables for a sit down audience. I was expecting to see a whole bunch of mad as sh*t people going crazy in the mosh pit! LOL
Wrong dude. when the foo's first started, He had long hair and no beard, like it was in nirvana. This video is probably 1999, witch is 4 years after the first foo's record.
Best collaboration Queen did post Freddie Mercury. EVAR!!
Dave's voice isn't up to Freddie standards but he goes a long way as far as energy, stage presence and passion goes.
The thing I like about him is that he respects and honours all the great classic rock bands instead of being influenced by shitty metal bands like most rockers today are
Freddie's voice helps as does having Brian slamming out an awesome riff on the red special but without the energy and passion I guess even Queen would be just your average band with a good singer
I like this version better than the Hyde Park version. Dave Grohl is just a fantastic frontman! Taylor is a good singer but it looks like he's just a little uncomfortable jumping around the stage.
OK, now imagine Freddie Mercury singing Headwires.."Better Than A Bullet Being Fired!" in Freddie style backed by FF...that would knock your socks off!
@lovequeen2111 two drummers are good. Taylor and Taylor, haha... at his age, I'm not so sure if Rog would be able to power this on his own.. Hawkins does a great supporting job.
@etolpygo from what I could see Hawkins looked more like the drummer in The Muppets Show rather than he carried the finer art of drumming through. I think Rog have no problems drumming by his own, neither has Hawkins. I hold both drummers with all respect, actually any musician at this level deserve that. Age is just a number, talent goes beyond that. Great to see this constellation, love to see more of it. I pay big bucks to see them live.
wow, thats some performance. You would think that a partnership of Queen and the Foo Fighters would be weird as hell, but its so energenic and awesome. Somehow it works.
Dave, Taylor, Brian May, and Roger Taylor singing at once = fucking orgasm
