@@msglimmertwin52 I’m so sorry. I also lost my dad about a year ago now and I was only 14. It really hurts. I hope you’re doing well ❤️ we can get through this together ❤️
It captures the emotion almost perfectly. Every time I hear that line, the memory of picking out clothes to give to the funeral director surfaces. I flash back a little bit to when I was cleaning out my Dad's home. I had just laid out the suit and tie my Dad was to be buried in when I kinda froze up and paused for a minute, feeling once again the weight of what was going on. It's a feeling you never forget.
I lost my wife about 3 months ago, at 45, after a 4 year battle with breast cancer and this whole album resonates with me…this song just absolutely crushes me, although it says exactly how I feel after my wife fought so hard for so long. My absolute favorite band, my wife was supposed to see them for the first time last summer in Saratoga Springs. I played this for her today when I visited her grave. Thank you Foo Fighters for sharing this with us!
This is the best album since 2011, and for sure the most honest one. It's not just another rock album for touring with random songs. Its a moment in life.
@@justaguyig8720 Seventeen going under isn’t really a rock album and I don’t think it is better. The first 9 songs in Hypersonic Missiles barring white privilege were all single worthy and all but one was. Seventeen Going Under is more cohesive but I don’t think the songs are as strong, the lyrics aren’t as inventive and the choruses aren’t as big. It sold way more but that’s only because of Seventeen Going Under - a pop song
This really feels like dave is digging down deep into his soul with this one, after losing a best friend and your mother in the same year. Truly heartwrenching!
The album feels like an emotional journey, the different stages experienced in grief and then in the end finally accepting reality and laying them to rest and moving on
The heavy use of distortion in the second chorus, combined with the simple repeating lyrics, really sets that part of the song up for breaking down emotionally. The distortion makes the sound frayed, damaged, and _hurt_ , while the lyrics give you room to reflect on your grief. Amazing song. It's not even been two months... Rest in peace, dad, you can rest now 🖤
Wow. This song is breathtaking. Cried like a baby to every second of it. Brought back how I felt when my Mother passed away. Dave’s voice, the lyrics and the music all blend together beautifully in such a raw emotion, you feel every moment of that song. I am so glad the foo fighters have continued on this musical journey. RIP Virginia & Taylor. ❤😢
This song is not only the best song in the entire album-it is the most important song. The way it just shows Dave's and the band's heart....wow. I can't stop hearing it, can't stop crying. Every second of this song is a masterpiece. "Rest, you can rest now. Rest, you will be safe now" never hurt so much to hear....Best album. Ever.
I wonder if I’ll ever be able to listen to this without tears falling when he sings “you will be saved now” at 4:22. What an epic and brutally beautiful song.
I don’t consider myself a fan of the Foo Fighters. I occasionally follow Dave’s music career because I’m a die-hard fan of Nirvana but I think this is the best song Dave has ever written, and perhaps this will be the first time I buy a Foo Fighters record. Very emotional tribute when you realize his mom raised him by herself and supported him all the way in his journey of becoming a musician.
Anyone else notice the subtle nod to "Congregation" in the acoustic lead part and then when it gets big and bombastic? I view it as a celebration of the lives of Virginia and Taylor. Either way, tearjerker of a track and a beautiful way to end the album. Best album of theirs since Wasting Light hands down.
This honestly may go down as one of the all time greatest foo songs ever. I don’t know if I’ve ever felt more emotionally impacted by a song so instantaneously. The emotion of the chord progression combined with Dave’s vocals and the absolutely superb build up into the big second chorus are all fantastic displays of musicianship that really show why Foo’s are the best band of the last 30 years.
'Laying in your favourite clothes... Chosen just for you'...'Rest...You can rest now...Rest...You will be safe now'... Having very recently lost my father, this song resonates so much. Listening and typing with tears, what a beautifully sad, touching and somehow uplifting song. My father absolutely loved music and whilst heartbroken, I know through music the process of coming to terms with loss, for me, will help me through my grief. Music, sounds and vibrations continue forever. This whole album is amazing. Dave, fellow foos and all involved have created a piece of magic and I will be forever thankful and grateful to them in sharing it to the world and I hope it brings solace, hope, peace and love to all who listen ❤
What an emotional album. We’re fortunate to be fans of such a band. While this album reflects Dave’s personal feelings it also feels so relatable and allows us to all grieve and remember those we’ve loved and lost over the years. Thanks to all who crafted this album.
Oh, Dave...we know how close you and your mom were. This song is what a lot of us need right now with our own recent, personal losses. Thank you for being so vulnerable with us. I hope this music helps you as much as it is helping me. Thank you, Virginia, for sharing your David with us.
After the first half or so of listening to this album, I was thinking "alright, cool that they were able to put this together after everything, but I'm not really blown away by the music." Then after "The Teacher," I thought "okay this actually might be some of the best work they've ever done." And then after this... this is the best rock album in 20 years. The Foos have NEVER been known as a concept album band, for as great as they are. To put out something like this that's completely different from anything they've ever done before under such unthinkable circumstances... the way it all builds up and the way you can feel the mood shift from denial/numbness to just pure, emotional grieving (I'd say starting with "Show Me How" there's a noticeable change) and then finally acceptance, it's just unbelievable. Who knows how much recognition it'll get since good music isn't allowed to be popular anymore today, but if this had come out in the 90s it would be career-defining. Take a motherfucking bow Dave, you absolute king.
What a beautiful love letter to his Mother. To lose both of his best friends in one year. It just seems so unfair. Much love and good vibes to the FF family
Dave has written his best song. And to me it’s a full circle because his best song is about the person who support him in his pursuit of becoming a musician.
You can rest now mum was what I said to my mum before she passed away. This song has me in floods of tears every I listen to it. Seeing the mighty Foos in Manchester is helping me deal with the loss.
I can’t listen to this without crying. I lost my mom at a young age almost ten years ago and it seems major life events have always been marked by Dave’s music. I am so grateful that from such tragedy, a beautiful song was created. If nothing else, this song is a masterpiece and captures something that transcends anything that words could ever describe. If you’ve ever lost someone close to you, this song will feel like validation and understanding that you are not alone. It’s worth noting too that in order for someone to bring you that much grief, at some point they brought you tremendous amounts of joy. That is invaluable.
Lost both of mine in two year span as well. I hang on to the many good memories from the years we had together instead of focusing on the loss. Guess that's my way to deal with it.
This is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever heard. The guitars were enough to bring me to tears, even if the words weren’t there. But the words ARE there, and thank you so much Dave for writing them. It couldn’t have been easy but you’ve shared something truly special with the world.
this song is straight out from the 90s. Memorable intro, very melancholic lyrics filled with very heavy shoegazy guitar. One of the greatest song they ever written
I've listened to this album 3 times since last night and I've cried 3 times thanks to this song. I'm blown away with how great this album is. Seriously, guys, I'm speechless.
Your Music has gotten me through everything life has thrown at me. Since I was 10 years old. I first saw you Live 3 months after my Dad passed away, back in 2015. That was the happiest night of my life. I finally got to see you again, this past Sunday. I've never sung as loudly as I did that night, with You. Love You Dave, Love You Guys. Thank You for Everything.
Dave, You're such a good soul, you're so cool. You're such a badass, you're so deep. You're such a simple man, dude, I feel you and I know you're a really good guy. Thanks for rockin us and being Dave Grohl, Mr Rock and Rohl! Long live the Foo Fighters!
To see your favorite band release an album after your birthday, thinking they'll never release new music after Taylor's passing, it's a powerful thing. So grateful to hear this new album, specially this new song. Truly great material.
To think about the loss and pain Dave and Foo have endured over the years. They never roll over and die on the hill and always keep moving forward. One of the best bands ever, and still the best show I’ve ever been to. Stay strong guys! Come back to Tulsa!
This hit home. My parents passed away recently 10 months apart to the day. This song, these lyrics, these raw emotions. A beautiful and everlasting song
Great song to end the album. Cant wait to hear a live version. Dave hats off, when most musicians lose their creative abilities in their 30s, you give us this beauty, which will be played forever. 🙏
I somehow think they'll never do this live. It was the same with I am a River. Epic ending to an album that never saw the stage. But this one is even bigger because I don't know how would he able to make it through the song without breaking
There is no way Dave could sing this live. Even if he somehow could, the rest of us would be puddles of tears; and as Dave has said: he wants their shows to bring the party UP…not down.
It’s been a good 30 minutes since finishing my listen through of the album. This song broke me and I cannot stop crying….this whole album is beautiful! The heart and soul these guys put out there is gut wrenching to listen to. FOOS FOREVER! 🤟
I've lost both my folks a while ago. My best friend and the love of my life last year, this song had me crying like it just happened. Dave and Co,, what an amazing song. Thank you.
This one hits home big time. “In the warm Virginia sun, there I will meet you.” My parents’ dream was to build a retirement home near the shores of the Chesapeake Bay in Virginia, particularly because of the incredible summer sunset on a summer afternoon they used to view from a relatives’ house close by. They had to sell the piece of land they bought for it after my father got diagnosed with cancer. He died 5 years later, then my mother followed after her own cancer battle a decade later. Every time I go back to that area I watch that sunset in their honor, and I know this line would resonate with them if they were here. Thank you Dave and Foos for this. I know this setting is where I will meet my parents again when my time comes.
I lost my dad this past February after a 3 year battle with lung cancer, and hearing the words rest you can rest now hits so much in the feels that I know he is resting and no longer suffering. Thank you Foos for giving me a song that I know will always make me remember my dad no matter how many times it makes me cry I will forever love this song.
My mum passed away a month ago from cancer. I'd cried a little in the lead up to her passing, but because I felt I needed to be strong for the rest of my family I was quite stoic. I listened to this song for the first time yesterday, and the tears flowed.
This is perhaps the most beautiful song foo fighters have ever released. Ending the most beautiful album the band has ever released. This is without a doubt some of their best work throughout their entire career. God damn.
I love the acoustics and how soft Dave is singing in the beginning of this one. Then the sudden jump of bringing in the sound! Such a beautiful song through and through🥲
My Dad passed on 10th February 2023, my mum was diagnosed with terminal cancer on 28th April and I cared for her until she passed away 28th June. I heard this song and the grief of losing both of them hit me at once. Never has a song provoked such emotions in me before.
I am currently listening to this during Ketamine Treatment for treatment resistant post traumatic stress disorder. My doctor told me about the new album from a conversation we were having. I have to see Foo Fighters in Louisville Kentucky in September. This was so beautiful I’ve gotta physically see them now.
😢❤ A masterful tribute to Virginia. This song is so deep it not only touch our souls, but I'm sure it reached Momma Grohl's soul somewhere in the afterlife.
I lost my grandma in April. She was more like my mum. This song speaks to me. When the distortion hits it shocked me but i realised that shock was like the shock i felt when she suddenly passed away. This communicates more than i ever could. Dave and the foos you guys are the GOAT.
Couldn't do anything else but sob throughout this one. What a vulnerable and also brutal way to express your pain, guys. And what an incredibly beautiful way to make us face our deepest ones. ❤🩹
This is, from now on, my favourite Foos song of all time. Thank you Dave for letting your soul pieces come out as master-ones. I'm sure I'll never meet you but, I love you!
This is the most beautiful song I’ve heard in 15 years… I’m at a loss for words. Anybody who lost a loved one, this song will tug at your heart strings. Thank you Dave and the Foos for a beautiful masterpiece ❤️
The first time I heard this song, I was in my car; I started crying halfway through it as I realized how much I resonated with the lyrics. I lost my grandmother a year ago, and it still hurts to this day. I had to take care of her every day as she slowly withered away on her death bed. I picked out her clothes, fed her whatever she could manage to eat, and did my best to laugh with her in her last days so she wouldn't be scared. During her last few days, I knew she was about to pass. I prayed for God to come take her; to end her suffering. The one thing I kept thinking when she finally passed...was "Rest." I miss her dearly, but I am overjoyed that she can finally just...rest. My love goes out to all that have lost someone close to you
I just finished listening to this album a few minutes ago... this is the No. 1 best record of this year and one of the best records of this decade so far...
This is the most I've cried listening to a song, this is heartbreaking and insanely beautiful at the same time. This is probably one of the best Foo Fighters' songs ever, it just hits so hard. What an amazing way of portraying their grief and love for Taylor and Virginia🤍. The beggining of the song is beautiful but the second half is a complete contrast with the music's intesity and Dave's voice. I´m truly amazed, can't wait to live these songs live.
I love that there's something about the tone created by this song, that makes it sound really... nostalgic. From the very start, it reminds you of a lullaby from when you were a child. It makes you think of warmth and sunlight... yet in a way that feels distant, long gone, never to return. Fuck, this song makes me feel things. Absolutely beautiful.
Lost a mate of mine earlier this year, only 18, from cancer. Everyday I think about him more and more. This song made me think of the memories we had in his last few years together in high school. The lyrics “you can rest now, rest you will be safe now” really make me sob thinking of ot
My father's father, and my friend's father have both passed away, one week after the other, while i was listening to the album. This album taught me that everything and everyone i love would eventually die. This time it was their turn to go, but next time It'd be siblings, friends, parents, or close partners. We can do whatever in our power to delay their passing, but eventually it'll happen. So i learned that i need to cherish every moment i have left with them. As Dave said in the previous track - "Try to make good with the air that's left, counting every minute living breath by breath". If this chain of events didn't happen, i would've learned that lesson way later in life, when a loss I'd have would be way more painful. Thank you Groul for this precious piece of knowledge that'd change my life, and rest in peace Taylor, Virginia, Pépé, and Rafi.
I’m at work listening and the last few minutes I find myself getting emotional and feeling deep down what he is saying over and over “goodbye” ugh Dave you are so loved.
My dad passed away when I'd heard half of this album, I decided last night to play the rest of the album and ran into this song ❤ this ones for him. Rip Dad ❤️🙏
Like many others on here - this song is hard for me to listen too. My mom was very sick when I first heard this song. I would get that lump in my throat. My mom died last October. I couldn’t listen to this song. I would weep when I listened to it… Dave expressed feelings that I share. I still break down listening to it. It speaks the truth on how I feel about my mom’s death… she fought and suffered for almost 7yrs. Now she is at peace and can rest. This will be my first Mother’s Day without her. I miss you mom - may you be at peace and rest now.
I am so sorry, I could never imagine what you're going through, but in a way I relate to the first part. My mom is in the hospital currently, fighting through cancer, I only found this song a few days ago, but the first time I heard it I sobbed harder than ever because I kept thinking of her. Stay strong man.
This album is bittersweet. Without Taylor and Virginia’s passing, this album would have been completely different. Because of these tragedies, we have been blessed with something that is truly amazing. Something we all can relate to in some way and cope with our own losses. Dave’s expressions of loss and sadness are something we can all embrace in our own lives, in our own way, and in our own hearts. I hate and love that this album exists but am thankful we all get to experience it.

Virginia, what a fine son you raised....
Respectful condolences to her daughter...Dave's sister as well ❤️🩹 💕
Boy you said it.
True . may she rest in peace 🕊️
My mom's name is Virginia. She died in December, three days after Christmas. This song felt like it was written for us.
No mother could be more prouder x
You never realize how bad it hurts to lose a parent until you experience it yourself. This song really hits hard.
I never knew real grief until my amazing Dad passed away 18 months ago. Pain I never knew. This new album is poignant and beautiful.
Didn't know the context, but now I do man this hits home
I'm sorry❤❤ hugs
@@msglimmertwin52 I’m so sorry. I also lost my dad about a year ago now and I was only 14. It really hurts. I hope you’re doing well ❤️ we can get through this together ❤️
That depends on whether your parents are good people or not. Sorry for your loss, but I'm counting the days till my parents take a dirt nap.
The delivery of the line "Laying in your favorite clothes, chosen just for you" is heart-breaking. Emotional overload.
It captures the emotion almost perfectly. Every time I hear that line, the memory of picking out clothes to give to the funeral director surfaces. I flash back a little bit to when I was cleaning out my Dad's home. I had just laid out the suit and tie my Dad was to be buried in when I kinda froze up and paused for a minute, feeling once again the weight of what was going on. It's a feeling you never forget.
The 2/4 time signature really helps with the emphasis.
2:40
That distortion makes it sound like the guitar is crying, screaming in grief, or both. Devastating.
I lost my wife about 3 months ago, at 45, after a 4 year battle with breast cancer and this whole album resonates with me…this song just absolutely crushes me, although it says exactly how I feel after my wife fought so hard for so long. My absolute favorite band, my wife was supposed to see them for the first time last summer in Saratoga Springs. I played this for her today when I visited her grave.

So sorry for your loss...
Gut wrenching, man. Glad you shared it with her. Her spirit heard it for sure.
Sorry for your loss.
@@hakant3240 thank you
@@jamezason thank you
Jesus Christ sorry
Sobbing uncontrollably. What a beautiful ending to a beautiful record. Rest, Virginia and Taylor. You are safe now.
This is the best album since 2011, and for sure the most honest one.
It's not just another rock album for touring with random songs.
Its a moment in life.
and the sadest one
Hypersonic Missiles was better, came out in 2019.
@@badgasaurus4211 wouldn’t say, seventeen going under is better, and this new foo fighters album is probably the best in years

I think it’s their best album period. Some of these songs sit with Lennon McCartney and Gilmoure. Did not think Foo had this in them honestly
Never cried so hard to any song ever. Thank you Foo Fighters for carrying on through everything.
I sobbed my heart out too! Having lost my partner prematurely aged 38, brought everything back, What an absolute class album!
Yeah, i cried too :(
Truth!!
This really feels like dave is digging down deep into his soul with this one, after losing a best friend and your mother
in the same year. Truly heartwrenching!
Didn't know his mother passed. I know Dave's going through it :/

Recently I lost my mom in a traffic accident. She was still young, full of life and dreams. This song says so much in little phrases. Thanks, FF
I'm so sorry for the tragic loss of your mother. Take care. ❤
I wonder if I’ll ever be able to listen to this without tears falling when he sings “you will be saved now” at 4:22.

Great song to end the album. Cant wait to hear a live version. Dave hats off, when most musicians lose their creative abilities in their 30s, you give us this beauty, which will be played forever. 🙏
I somehow think they'll never do this live. It was the same with I am a River. Epic ending to an album that never saw the stage. But this one is even bigger because I don't know how would he able to make it through the song without breaking
There is no way Dave could sing this live. Even if he somehow could, the rest of us would be puddles of tears; and as Dave has said: he wants their shows to bring the party UP…not down.
@@davidhurtado2725 neither could the thousands of fans, every listen I'm moved to near tears, I'm a 6ft 51yr old Scotsman ;)
This is one of my favorites since on the mend
It’s been a good 30 minutes since finishing my listen through of the album. This song broke me and I cannot stop crying….this whole album is beautiful! The heart and soul these guys put out there is gut wrenching to listen to. FOOS FOREVER! 🤟
I've lost both my folks a while ago. My best friend and the love of my life last year, this song had me crying like it just happened. Dave and Co,, what an amazing song. Thank you.
Sorry for your losses Roshan.
Best sad song out there. Even though its not exactly the normal sound of sober songs this is unique and rings in your ears with power and greatness
Walk, Run and now Rest. Beautiful, and such a bittersweet album
Hits on another level. Musical masterpiece.
There's no words to express how perfect this album is
This song just hits on a completely harder level after hearing about my grandmothers passing this morning.
Kicks in just the way it should. Cheers!🥨
I'm not crying, you are.... 😭.... 🤍. Brilliant song. All the feels. Love it! 🫶🏻
LOL this is a song which you love but you skip most of the time because you don't want to cry.
This one hits home big time. “In the warm Virginia sun, there I will meet you.” My parents’ dream was to build a retirement home near the shores of the Chesapeake Bay in Virginia, particularly because of the incredible summer sunset on a summer afternoon they used to view from a relatives’ house close by. They had to sell the piece of land they bought for it after my father got diagnosed with cancer. He died 5 years later, then my mother followed after her own cancer battle a decade later. Every time I go back to that area I watch that sunset in their honor, and I know this line would resonate with them if they were here. Thank you Dave and Foos for this. I know this setting is where I will meet my parents again when my time comes.
I lost my dad this past February after a 3 year battle with lung cancer, and hearing the words rest you can rest now hits so much in the feels that I know he is resting and no longer suffering. Thank you Foos for giving me a song that I know will always make me remember my dad no matter how many times it makes me cry I will forever love this song.
This is as beautiful as it gets. Bravo boys, you have quite a few guardian angels on your shoulders ❤️
My mum passed away a month ago from cancer. I'd cried a little in the lead up to her passing, but because I felt I needed to be strong for the rest of my family I was quite stoic. I listened to this song for the first time yesterday, and the tears flowed.
This is perhaps the most beautiful song foo fighters have ever released. Ending the most beautiful album the band has ever released. This is without a doubt some of their best work throughout their entire career. God damn.
Dave, I’m so sorry for the pain of all the loss you have suffered. Much love to you 💔❤️😢
I lost my mom in October 2021, this song is so relatable. Thank you Dave and Foo Fighters for this album, it’s so healing ❤️🩹
I love the acoustics and how soft Dave is singing in the beginning of this one. Then the sudden jump of bringing in the sound! Such a beautiful song through and through🥲
Wow... just wow! Amazing ending for a perfect album. Another Grammy winner 100%
There's hope! The Earth will be a paradise! There's angels all around!
this song makes me cry each time I hear it.... and I can hear it five times in a row....
The best song of the album.
this is one of the most beautiful songs i have ever heard. cried a lot
My Dad passed on 10th February 2023, my mum was diagnosed with terminal cancer on 28th April and I cared for her until she passed away 28th June. I heard this song and the grief of losing both of them hit me at once. Never has a song provoked such emotions in me before.
Tears just roll down naturally.
This is a very powerful ending to a very emotionally charged record.
I really want to see this played live london 20th June next year. I absolutely love and relate to this song xx
Heart wrenching and so raw
Its so genuine and it’s so beautiful
I am currently listening to this during Ketamine Treatment for treatment resistant post traumatic stress disorder. My doctor told me about the new album from a conversation we were having. I have to see Foo Fighters in Louisville Kentucky in September. This was so beautiful I’ve gotta physically see them now.
😢❤ A masterful tribute to Virginia. This song is so deep it not only touch our souls, but I'm sure it reached Momma Grohl's soul somewhere in the afterlife.
I lost my grandma in April. She was more like my mum. This song speaks to me. When the distortion hits it shocked me but i realised that shock was like the shock i felt when she suddenly passed away. This communicates more than i ever could. Dave and the foos you guys are the GOAT.
Back on October 17, 2023 I lost my Father. I love this song.
Sorry for your loss
Crying feels good eventually. Thanks, Dave. I needed one.
Lost my dad a few weeks ago......Not only does this song hit hard, but the whole album hits hard! Goodnight dad i love and miss you!
Raw emotion, right there … I lost my husband just before Christmas and this got to me 😭
I'm so sorry for your loss, Nikki. ❤
Couldn't do anything else but sob throughout this one. What a vulnerable and also brutal way to express your pain, guys. And what an incredibly beautiful way to make us face our deepest ones. ❤🩹
Thank You Dave... for this song... for this album.... for making us cry in such a beautiful way....
This is, from now on, my favourite Foos song of all time. Thank you Dave for letting your soul pieces come out as master-ones. I'm sure I'll never meet you but, I love you!
What an incredible song this is...
This is the most beautiful song I’ve heard in 15 years… I’m at a loss for words. Anybody who lost a loved one, this song will tug at your heart strings. Thank you Dave and the Foos for a beautiful masterpiece ❤️
1:21 "Open your eyes, step into the light" (Congregation) with these lyrics was just perfect.
The first time I heard this song, I was in my car; I started crying halfway through it as I realized how much I resonated with the lyrics. I lost my grandmother a year ago, and it still hurts to this day. I had to take care of her every day as she slowly withered away on her death bed. I picked out her clothes, fed her whatever she could manage to eat, and did my best to laugh with her in her last days so she wouldn't be scared. During her last few days, I knew she was about to pass. I prayed for God to come take her; to end her suffering. The one thing I kept thinking when she finally passed...was "Rest." I miss her dearly, but I am overjoyed that she can finally just...rest. My love goes out to all that have lost someone close to you
I just finished listening to this album a few minutes ago... this is the No. 1 best record of this year and one of the best records of this decade so far...
agreee
This is the most I've cried listening to a song, this is heartbreaking and insanely beautiful at the same time. This is probably one of the best Foo Fighters' songs ever, it just hits so hard. What an amazing way of portraying their grief and love for Taylor and Virginia🤍. The beggining of the song is beautiful but the second half is a complete contrast with the music's intesity and Dave's voice. I´m truly amazed, can't wait to live these songs live.
I lost my dad ten years ago today. I found this song a couple days ago and it's just still an open wound.
I feel you brother. I found this song when it came out. If you know you know. God is love
This song hits me really deeply to the point of crying. But, I've listened to it 15 times in a row.
Superb.
Rest in Peace Virginia
I love that there's something about the tone created by this song, that makes it sound really... nostalgic. From the very start, it reminds you of a lullaby from when you were a child. It makes you think of warmth and sunlight... yet in a way that feels distant, long gone, never to return.
Fuck, this song makes me feel things. Absolutely beautiful.
Lost a mate of mine earlier this year, only 18, from cancer. Everyday I think about him more and more. This song made me think of the memories we had in his last few years together in high school. The lyrics “you can rest now, rest you will be safe now” really make me sob thinking of ot
So sorry for your loss, sending love ❤
I've never heard Dave's voice quite like this.
Then you have to listen "How I Miss You" it's basically this song but for a lover instead of her mother.
@@fcallo it definitely did take me back to the early days. How I Miss You is a classic!
Thank you so much for this album and this song. My dad passed two weeks ago and your music has been my crutch to make it through this time.
I'm sorry for your loss, Michael.
Also sorry for your loss Michael, i dread the day i lose my best friend, my mum aged now 74. Dave and co have excelled with this album. x
I just lost my mom today, July 30, 2024.
Listening to this song in repeat.
I'm hurting...
My father's father, and my friend's father have both passed away, one week after the other, while i was listening to the album.
This album taught me that everything and everyone i love would eventually die. This time it was their turn to go, but next time It'd be siblings, friends, parents, or close partners.
We can do whatever in our power to delay their passing, but eventually it'll happen.
So i learned that i need to cherish every moment i have left with them. As Dave said in the previous track - "Try to make good with the air that's left, counting every minute living breath by breath".
If this chain of events didn't happen, i would've learned that lesson way later in life, when a loss I'd have would be way more painful.
Thank you Groul for this precious piece of knowledge that'd change my life, and rest in peace Taylor, Virginia, Pépé, and Rafi.
the raw acoustic sound from the beginning of this song is something ive missed so much from them
yeah right?, this is right with everlong acoustic or on the mend.,..
It does. It sounded like “doll” from color and the shape when it first started playing.
What a way to close out the album. This song is fantastic.
I’m at work listening and the last few minutes I find myself getting emotional and feeling deep down what he is saying over and over “goodbye” ugh Dave you are so loved.
Larga vida Foo Fighters 🤘🏻
Siiii; LARGA VIDA para TODOS y cada uno de los integrantes de los Fighters, son TREMENDOS. 💯🍷
My dad passed away when I'd heard half of this album, I decided last night to play the rest of the album and ran into this song ❤ this ones for him. Rip Dad ❤️🙏
Like many others on here - this song is hard for me to listen too. My mom was very sick when I first heard this song. I would get that lump in my throat. My mom died last October. I couldn’t listen to this song. I would weep when I listened to it… Dave expressed feelings that I share. I still break down listening to it. It speaks the truth on how I feel about my mom’s death… she fought and suffered for almost 7yrs. Now she is at peace and can rest. This will be my first Mother’s Day without her. I miss you mom - may you be at peace and rest now.
I am so sorry, I could never imagine what you're going through, but in a way I relate to the first part. My mom is in the hospital currently, fighting through cancer, I only found this song a few days ago, but the first time I heard it I sobbed harder than ever because I kept thinking of her.
Stay strong man.
THIS SONG perfectly encapsulates a moment in time - a moment in Dave’s life- a moment in any of our lives who have experience deep loss. I cried.
Sobbing uncontrollably listening to this. What a beautiful song ❤
This album is bittersweet. Without Taylor and Virginia’s passing, this album would have been completely different. Because of these tragedies, we have been blessed with something that is truly amazing. Something we all can relate to in some way and cope with our own losses. Dave’s expressions of loss and sadness are something we can all embrace in our own lives, in our own way, and in our own hearts. I hate and love that this album exists but am thankful we all get to experience it.
