Foo Fighters - Have A Cigar

(IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ)
-Taylor Hawkins the drummer is singing - NOT Dave Grohl.
-I put this video up for people who wanted to hear it.
-If you do or don't like it I DON'T CARE - its your opinion
-There is no use bitching to me if you think it sucks because I didn't make the song - take it up with the band if you care so much

AND - why don't all the haters of this version do their own cover and everybody can insult them on the slightest detail because the solo is exactly spot on?

ALSO if like so many people think Pink Floyd is "untouchable" why do you have such high expectations of the song, also a cover version is your own version, if they did exactly the same thing people would just bitch about that too - So...

Shut Up - watch the video if you like it, if u don't please leave constructive critism - instead of "this sux :("

Thank You :)

Lyrics

Come in here, dear boy, have a cigar. youre gonna go far, fly high,
Youre never gonna die, youre gonna make it if you try;theyre gonna love you.
Well Ive always had a deep respect, and I mean that most sincerely.
The band is just fantastic, that is really what I think. oh by the way,
Which ones pink?
And did we tell you the name of the game, boy, we call it riding the
Gravy train.

Were just knocked out. we heard about the sell out. you gotta get an
Album out,
You owe it to the people. were so happy we can hardly count.
Everybody else is just green, have you seen the chart?
Its a helluva start, it could be made into a monster if we all pull together
As a team.
And did we tell you the name of the game, boy, we call it riding the
Gravy train.

Pink isn't well he stayed back at the hotel and he sent the FF along as a surrogate band, we're gonna find out where you fans really stand...

The video description is priceless. It tells the trolls to shut the fuck up before they can even start! I totally agree, though. If I didn't WANT to hear the cover, I wouldn't have SEARCHED for the cover. Pink Floyd is awesome, the original of this song is awesome, and the cover by the Foo is its own unique form of, you guessed it, awesome.

[TheBeatlesRUL3]

Great cover, but as always... the original is better.

[HLandEM]

These guys can do everything right. EVERYTHING.

[sebsrv]

[Fl0yDian86]

I am a super, mega, hyper, whatever, fan of Pink Floyd and I hardly like covers from Pink Floyd but I like this one, congratz Foo Fighters

[DyerOfTheCentury]

BEST COVER EVER.

[TehMountainMan]

@TehMountainMan The new pace, I'd argue, doesn't seem to have any chemistry with the composition, particularly those four motifs played throughout the song with a synthesizer in the original. Overall, the mood set by this version doesn't lend itself well to the subject matter, nor the song composition.

[TehMountainMan]

Certainly, covering is a sign of respect, but it doesn't mean anyone is obliged to ignore any problems they have with the song. Most probably couldn't explain it, but their problem is likely the mere fact that isn't Pink Floyd. Here are my problems: the way it's sung here misses the idea in the original of portraying a music industry executive, forgoing that and replacing it with an unremarkable voice and tone. It also feels rushed. Damned comment limit.

this is ok but too fast and the guitar just doesnt fit floyd

the primus cover I prefer
