Foo Fighters have a new greatest hits album out now. Lead singer Dave Grohl answers reader questions here. For more with Dave, check out: bit.ly/6OLFxT
No need, not really the style of rock I prefer. Too poppy for my tastes. Excellent for what it is, but not to my liking. I'd rather listen to something else.
Dave Grohl is a good example on how to live life, yes he was in a huge band Nirvana. When it ended he moved on, kept going, never gave up. Despite the tragic end and hardship. Look at yourself, you can achieve more than you ever though possible. Dave proved this is true
Dave is a grounded Dude, always has been. He did a guitar clinic that I attended I think in 02', and he was so freaking cool. About 15 of us who knew the Music Store owner hung out for a couple of hours with Nate and Dave drinking beers and we were laughing so hard and just talking guy stuff. Great dude.
Dave is possibly the sanest individual on earth. Been a rock star for 22 years and never done drugs in all that time, just been the most incredibly rounded, grounded, down-to-earth and simply LIKEABLE person around... to maintain that sanity and lack of ego in the most ego-driven, insane business you can be in takes something special. What's more, while not all of us are born to be musicians, Dave's dedication to pursuing his dreams against a lack of skills and formal training plus making it pay off really is an inspiration, helps keep me going in my own entirely non-musical endeavours.
seriously? "never done drugs in all that time"? what,have you been with him or something? i mean the man literally said "im not the poster boy for sobriety" and that his friends have died due to drugs, please for the love of god put 2 and fuckin' 2 together
cobaltSP1D3R Dave never did coke or heroin at any point, only ever did LSD and weed, and he packed those in at the age of 20 and has been clean ever since...
***** right? you said "he's never done DRUGS in all that time" "DRUGS" that means all the drugs,if you expected me to just infer that you meant just heroin and coke then thats...thats just lame dude, oh and i aint rippin on dave here,i love dave grohl,he's fuckin awesome
@@smittenthekitteninmittens2679 do you know that Kurt tried to suicide himself before the 5 April 1994, and who saved him each Time, Courtney, even if she might be the reason why, she is not the murderer
@@goatoki2849 ...Kurt tried to commit suicide in Rome.....according to Courtney.....everybody said it was an accidental overdose ...until he actually died..then she came out saying Rome was a suicide attempt...and i didnt say she murdered him herself..
Has i ever dawned on you guys that if Courtney did kill him, she probably could get away with it knowing he would be looked at as suicidal from the press?
I love how Dave says, "I don't like being away from my kids, I don't like being away from them for more than 12 days" - what a devoted father to his family and is one of the greatest rock musicians. Wonderful man!
I just watched an interview with Dave from a small radio station in the 90's. And now TIME magazine. Grohl hasn't changed and that much and fame never got to him. Was expecting TIME to deliver something special but that 90's radio station gave the better interview.
It's pretty cool that Kurt Cobain and Dave Grohl have the same outlook on their rock 'n' roll careers; that their children would stop them from being in the industry, if anything.
how can he be one of the most talented drummer-singer-guitarist-actor and also be so kind and warm at the same time. not everyone can be like him you know. most of the people can't handle that much talent.
It's so good to see so many good comments about someone who really deserves it and is just a full on nice guy! Some kids met him at a festival while he was eating his lunch so they went and said hello, and he didn't get all up tight he actually sat and spoke with him for a while :) Awesome guy!
Great interview with a great, truly eclectic artist. Even cooler that he's so grounded. I saw an interview a long time ago, early in his marriage. The interviewer refused to believe he wasn't a wild crazy party animal. Finally he said that for he & his wife, a wild weekend was buying tons of junk food, renting like a dozen movies & never leaving their bedroom. Anyone so detached from trying to be cool or front the right R&R attitude is the epitome of artistic integrity & anti-mtv commercialism!

Dave is so easy to relate to. Im a drummer and in fifth grade when I started playing I was having a hard time my dad showed me avideo of Dave drumming and it inspired the shit out of me. I'm in 7th grade now and a pretty good drummer. Dave inspired me to start to teach myself guitar and start a band. Dave Grohl If your are reading this Thank You. You are my hero.
If this guy isn't THE rock idol of the new age. If all musictians dissapear and only dave and the foo fighters remain I'd be happy. He has an amazing attitude. Not just twards rock but to music as a whole.
''I have two daughters that are gonna grow up with... A Rock musician as a father... Here in Los Angeles... Two beautiful girls on the valley... *Rethinks about life, universe and his whole existence* I'M FUCKED MAN''.
Dave Grohl seems to be very well rounded person. He has always been a great musician, an NOW we can see that he is a great dad and likely a great husband.
dude he is an amazing dude. he has learned so many great lessons over the years. He is going to be a great dad no matter where he is. I wish I had half the talent, and insight he has. Its just not fair. Can't wait for their new stuff to come out its going to be amazing
I love Aurora. I started playing it every night after I played it one night after my son had brain surgery. It calmed him down and he just relaxed and fell asleep. so it is my little david's lullaby.
I love Dave in this interview. This is a great interview. I love Dave's comment on the new bands, it's so true. Foo Fighters are my alltime favorite band ever. One of the best interviews by the Foo's I've heard.
I would love to invite Dave to one of my family's Saturday night game nights, the way we get would be augmented having him there, we could swap stories of life past and present
He has an amazing way of connecting to people I think he should run for president or be my personal life coach he is so fuckn awesome we need more people with the same approach of life as fuckn DAVE GROHL !!
his son is so lucky. not only is he a fan of his dad, but when his friends listen to Foo Fighters or watch old Nirvana vids he gets to say "thats my dad" :)
I love that he's avoided the pitfalls of the music world. Its nice to hear a musician who doesn't think you have to snort coke or shoot heroin to belong in that world.
"As a parent with a teenager, who is a drummer..." "Hm." "..and is now interested in both Nirvana and the Foo Fighters..." "Hm." I have no idea why, but those "Hm"'s made me laugh.

I wouldn't exactly call myself a fan of his band, but my respect for Dave is massive.
+DaemoniumCC I like the Foo Fighters. I don't love them. But damn Dave is the coolest, nicest person ever.
Listen to the Colour and the Shape from start to finish and you'll be a fan. Trust me
I have.
Then listen to it again, its legendary
No need, not really the style of rock I prefer. Too poppy for my tastes. Excellent for what it is, but not to my liking. I'd rather listen to something else.
3:00 just another reason of many why I love Dave

"the most important thing in my life are my kids". beautiful. love ya dave.
hes such a good well rounded guy.
So Dave was in one of the greatest rock bands to ever exist, he changed rock history and all he wanted to do was buy a bigger grill 😂
Dave Grohl is possibly the greatest human being ever. I absolutely love him

This man’s shenanigans and this entire band has SAVED MY LIFE. 😪☮️🌞
BlissfullyAware he definitely gives out good, positive vibes;
Oh, you poor creature...
Wow a good dad with life priorities of love and a kick ass musician.

cobaltSP1D3R in all the years Dave has been a rock star, he has never touched drugs of any description.
***** Dave packed those in at 20, which is why I said he's never taken drugs in all his years as a rock star (he was 21 when he first achieved fame).
Dave is such a humble guy.
dave grohl is a sweetheart!!!
I love how Dave never singles out Kurt for drug abuse
...or were murdered
@@smittenthekitteninmittens2679 do you know that Kurt tried to suicide himself before the 5 April 1994, and who saved him each Time, Courtney, even if she might be the reason why, she is not the murderer

@@smittenthekitteninmittens2679 well, I agree that is suspicious, but we can't reallly know, too much clues on both sides.
Has i ever dawned on you guys that if Courtney did kill him, she probably could get away with it knowing he would be looked at as suicidal from the press?
7 and a half minutes of this isn't nearly enough
"oh my god i can get a bigger grill!!"
haha dave rocks so much
"one of the things that saved me when i first became successful was that i was always close to my family n friends" WOW!
"Ladies" *goofy seductive look*
Omg I was dying laughing!!!!
4:48
i'm officially in love with this man.
I wish i could meet Dave. He is just amazing.

"I can chance a diaper in 10 secs" That is some serious shit ı can tell you that
Enes Karaytuğ was he on an F1 pit crew or something?
It's so good to see so many good comments about someone who really deserves it and is just a full on nice guy!

he looks so much different than he did in his Nirvana days
Dave is my role model when it comes to his attitude towards music.
So true about supporting your families, I love that part of his interview.
"they (kids) are in charge of my career" love it
I love this guy!
0:42 ...i've been searching for something, something never comes never leads to nothing
nothing satisfies but I'm getting close, closer to the prize at the end of the rope

Dave is one of the nicest guys in rock music. Would love to have the chance to just sit down and have a beer or two with the guy.
There was an error in the first video. Dave was talking about his song "All My Life," not "Aurora."
Dave Grohl. What an all around nice guy, just wow.
I love Dave he seems so down to earth and nice
7:21 Now that's a down to earth statement
LOVE HIM!!!
2:58 biggest centrist moment ever
I would love to invite Dave to one of my family's Saturday night game nights, the way we get would be augmented having him there, we could swap stories of life past and present
He has an amazing way of connecting to people I think he should run for president or be my personal life coach he is so fuckn awesome we need more people with the same approach of life as fuckn DAVE GROHL !!
The first question - he said he loved Aurora!!
Aurora to me is a very personal song as well! And one of my favourites!!
Oh, I can buy a bigger grill, this is great!
He's such a down to earth, great guy.
fuck, dave grohl has to be the most down to earth guy ever.
he's pretty much my inspiration for everything i do, i swear.
his son is so lucky. not only is he a fan of his dad, but when his friends listen to Foo Fighters or watch old Nirvana vids he gets to say "thats my dad" :)
Dave Grohl is the BEST Singer, guitar player, and drummer out there. The Foo Fighters will never die!
I'm not even lying, before this video, I got a Dave Grohl ad from when he was talking about Seattle😂
I think this is the first time I actually heard him talk and I didn't not expect his voice to sound like that! So different from his singing voice.
TIME is becoming Rolling Stone.
The only drug someone like Dave needs is music, and he's pretty much got a lifetime supply of it.
dave grohl, i love you.
dave is great with th sticks and in front of the mic.. he's awesome
i absolutely love that he named it foo fighters hah :P
I love that he's avoided the pitfalls of the music world. Its nice to hear a musician who doesn't think you have to snort coke or shoot heroin to belong in that world.
3:35 is so true! Amen to that! :)
"As a parent with a teenager, who is a drummer..."
"Hm."
"..and is now interested in both Nirvana and the Foo Fighters..."
"Hm."
I have no idea why, but those "Hm"'s made me laugh.
Dave is such a lovely man!
This is either an extremely dedicated actor or the greates man in the music industry.
he is truly such a great guy. he is not only talented, but also he is really nice and he always makes me laugh! i love you dave!
I think it's really cool he gave a shout out to Deerhoof. They are an amazing band.
"I'm Brian Alexander from time dot co-"
"HI BRIAN!"
