Great song. "Aurora" is named after Aurora Ave in Seattle. Kurt Cobain used to go to a motel on Aurora to shoot up. Though that's not what the song is about. One of my favorite songs is "Stacked Actors" 🍻
While Colour And The Shape is the legendary Foo Fighters album I think that their best album is Echoes, Silence, Patience, And Grace. I’ve been a fan of the Foos literally since the first album, but I wasn’t a hardcore fan until Echoes. I never thought of them really as very capable musicians until then. They were just fun. Echoes, Silence, Patience, And Grace changed all of that for me. That album was a masterpiece. All of the songs are crafted so well. It was no longer punk rock dynamics. It wasn’t just about the energy. The songs would build up progressively with layers of instrumentation. There was a real fine art to it. And after all of that I see a change in the Foo Fighters with no longer writing a bunch of songs, but writing a whole album. Every album from Echoes and after is written more as a complete album.
I loved watching him play the drums...he was always SO into it!! I would get amped up just watching him play...you could FEEL his energy! He will be greatly missed...😢
Love how Dave said you couldn't find a better drummer when he himself is a drummer any band would love to have. One of the must level handed ppl. In music
Foo Fighters wasn't Foo Fighters without Taylor: the first record is pretty much Dave Grohls' demos recorded all by himself and "The Colour and the Shape" has Dave's caveman pounding style of drumming from his Nirvana days all over it. Foo Fighters stepped out of grunge's shadows on their next album. Aside from the drums, Taylor brought a sense of humility on a group dynamic where Dave was always at the top of hierarchy. Now my personal opinion is that Taylor is a more complex drummer than Dave and he was soon to leave a bigger mark outside the band, musically speaking. And without Taylor, Foo Fighters is just Dave Grohl's solo career/project like Probot. Unfortunately, Taylor's gone too soon.
You know what I've come to hate the term grunge, I listened to nevermind for the first time in 20 years yesterday that shits just straight up rock n roll they're the only band from that era I can listen to and actually feel good afterward which is why I stopped listening to AIC Soundgarden and all that lot because it just bummed me out.

I hope to God Dave is well… I have a lot of friends that have passed this way as well, i felt bad watching the show. When he did times like these, Taylor’s son can really play well too
Taylor and Dave were so tight. You always saw that at every show and during interviews. It’s not easy to play drums for a guy like Dave Grohl who could very easily cut his own parts. Taylor took that role seriously and with such passion. Dave didn’t have to worry about it. Dave Grohl is more passionate about drums than guitar. But Dave only had to focus on guitar with Taylor playing drums. It’s a huge load taken off him. If the Foo Fighters disband after this I understand it. It’s not likely that Dave Grohl will get this type of camaraderie for drums again with someone else.
@@danevertt3210 haha, personally I guess I don’t. But he has mentioned several times in interviews that he’s not really a guitar player. Somewhere if you can find a video where he explains how he wrote the song “Everlong” he mentions that he approaches playing guitar as if it were a drum set. So he plays lower strings in the place of the kick and upper strings in the place of snare and cymbals. It could be a misnomer for me to make that as a definitive statement of Grohl being more passionate about drums, but that is 100% what I get from him.
Taylor Hawkins is one of my biggest inspirations as a drummer, I want to play like he did with all that energy and nuance but with my own twists, with this tattoo on my shoulder I plan to honour him and remember him every time I play, he is a legend now and forever. Rest in Piece Taylor
Dave must feel cursed. Losing two friends who were also awesome musicians and band mates. It's not his fault. But I know he has to feel like it sometimes
@@samod7550 Imagine if he told the media “well we were estranged by that point and when he died it was a thousand pond weight off my shoulders and a relief, wasn’t sad”. Not saying that’s how he feels but its very narrow and limited insofar as acceptability in what he could say. Imagine the backlash if he said anything else. It’s cute how you believe whatever a public figures tells you to believe though. Even in other interviews he has hinted he has never disclosed how he felt and that he will never share the real story. By all accounts Nirvana was about to break up and Dave was on bad terms with Kurt.
@stevensherrier I'm not going to guess on what you have or haven't done in your life, because even I met Taylor Hawkins really really briefly and got a drumstick from him at end Fest in 1997 or 98 (need to look through old stuff of mine) seeing them live after they got done playing they shook hands with myself and people in the front same with Dave Grohl and the rest of the band we met also they all seemed really nice. And really rocked!!
@@ssherrierable Taylor Hawkins was an extremely accessible person. He was always out and about, and would often stop and have actual conversations with his fans. I'm sorry that nothing like that has ever happened for you (maybe it's your negative vibe?) but many of us had the opportunity to meet Taylor, and he was very much a friendly guy who seemed to enjoy talking to people.
I live in Bogota, this was a total shock for everyone, people were waiting for the Foo to take the stage when they were told Taylor died. He also had cocaine on his blood at the time of death and was at an even better hotel than the Four Seasons, it's safe to say he had a pretty good time
@@pamelapalmer239 what makes you think he wouldn't have died from cocaine (or crack cocaine-i mean if it were crack there's an even higher chance of heart trouble because of the route of administration but a toxicology report would only show up as cocaine) if he definitely did have it in his bloodstream? More likely that than benzos and heroin if we're speculating it was definitely drugs that killed him seeing as he called to say he had chest pain-benzo and opiate overdoses rarely give a person to even reach a phone when they overdose, I can attest to that unfortunately-its far more likely to cause death by your breathing slowing then stopping which takes a little while. Although I may be missing something because I don't know what you mean by "jab resistant"-ive never heard that phrase before
Well I'm not sure about "good time", I get why your saying that but getting high doesn't necessarily mean your having fun -if he had been clean for a while there's a good chance something may have been bothering him personally before he went back to using again 😔 at least he's left a legacy though and kids through the years will pick up Foo Fighters albums and be inspired by him 👍

It was daves fault Taylor is dead for pushing the jab. did dave come out and clear his so-called friend's name? no, he did not. dave is not some great guy as all these comments say. He is a POS and he knows it. He will have that over him for the rest of his life. (which if he took the jab won't be that long)
Tragic loss of a killer musician. Nobody dares to mention the shots he had to take to travel with the band. COVID Shots and an enlarged heart, coincidence? I wonder
Man, that shit broke my heart when I heard that news… I can’t even begin to imagine the pain the Dave was dealing with. This being the second time he’s lost a close friend and an important band member. That kind of trauma leave your heart scarred .
He was an awesome drummer, but I want to see a video on pat. Pat smear is so underrated. Even in the germs when he was much younger, he played on stage the same skill level as Lorna, Don and darby, but he could play all the queen and yes songs. I just love the germs.
That was well researched. Gave a thumbs up. As for Taylor I have to wonder what exactly happened? He was in recovery and being an active drug addict myself I could only wonder what was going thru his mind in Bogota Columbia(coke capital of the world). I don't believe the tox screen results at time of death. He had an enlarged heart(me too from years of smoking coke). Maybe relapsed but idk, nevertheless he was a great drummer and many things but most of all he was a great human being. God bless. And just for today do not do drugs, especially you children, you have no idea how bad drugs are, please don't even try. Marijuana is ok but the powders(coke, heroin, cystal meth). Beware of alcohol, get you physically addicted and that is bad!!!!!! You will suffer while kicking booze.

Did you just you didn’t believe a fact i.e. toxicology report? What a world we live in today where people are suspicious of experts and facts yet love lies
So tired of this Taylor Hawkins crap the guy basically killed himself with the drug overdose and he gets memorialized like he was some type of hero while Eddie Van Halen died of cancer after he valiantly fought it and he doesn't even get anything
Taylor Hawkins is one of the top 10 best drummers of all time. I feel sorry for Dave Grohl since Dave lost two iconic friends in the rock industry (one being Taylor and the other being Kurt Cobain). Speaking of icons, I can't wait until next month when R N' R Stories covers the 2-year anniversary of Eddie Van Halen's passing.
I don't feel bad for Dave, I feel bad for Taylor, the guy who admitted of having a troubled relationship with drugs in the past and unfortunately relapsed. This didn't help either: "Even though friends say Hawkins told Grohl and Foo Fighters’ management he wanted to scale back, they believe he agreed to continue touring with them to be a team player. '[A band like that] is a big machine [with] a lot of people on the payroll,' Cameron says. 'So you’ve got to really be cognizant of the business side of something when it’s that big and that has inherent pressure, just like any business.' (...) Foo Fighters staged roughly 40 shows last year, and already had nearly 60 more on the books for 2022." (Rolling Stone, May 16, 2022) It doesn't really matter who said what, the fact is Foo Fighters had one of the most brutal tour schedules in today's music/entertainment.
He was a decent drummer,. not even close to being in the top ten though. Money doesn't equal talent,. Sorry. I could name 10 drummer's/drummers that you probably have never even heard of before? All of them drummers that Taylor would bow to himself.
he was a cool dude. Not much of a fan of Foo but when he was the drummer for Alanis Morisette I thought he was smoking. That song "you oughta know" he's ruling those drums. He's missed. Was shocked when i heard he passed. Only the good die young, and the evil that men do lives on and on . . .RIP Taylor ain't gotta bad word to say about you.
I remember when "The Colour and the Shape" came out when I was 14 or 15, skipping school with my partner of (it ended up being) 3yrs, good times. I know Hawkins didn't really (if at all, I'm not sure) play on that album but nevertheless it's brought back good memories to think of it and those days again. If I'm honest I kinda fell out of listening to them a couple years afterwards though but RIP Mr Taylor, I get what he might have been going through, I stopped benzos and heroin a while ago and thank goodness for that because that shit doesn't discriminate 😔 But he's left a huge legacy so while it's disastrous what's happened there will be kids picking up Foo Fighters albums for years and years and being inspired by his drumming and I'm sure that would make him happier than ever
Dude. A 15 minute video titled "Taylor Hawkins' Tragic Death" should, maybe, do more than mention that death in passing... You act like there's going to be new information, and there is hardly any information at all. VERY disappointing.
He got that clotshot under extreme pressure from his so called "best friend". If that was true Dave would have allowed him to choose what he put in his body and not force him to take a dangerous untested injection.
he asked Dave to cut down on the number of shows and instead Dave increased the number of shows. Dave KNEW Taylor was having problems, and ignored them.
Unfortunately he didn't learn and was a victim of his vices... It's a shame as he was a very gifted musician But more importantly was a very gifted and genuine person who was loved by many... It's amazing when he accomplished and how many people you touched but sadder how much he left behind...
of course, I'm sad when anyone dies, but when people are around a drug addicted rocker for 25yrs how in the hell can any of them say that they were "...surprised by their death."? BY DRUGS! Taylor, hopefully you've found the peace that you have been looking for and are able to rest in it.
he wasn't in active addiction anymore. He wasn't getting high. A lot of people are on a cocktail to help them stay alive. You don't know anything. Don't tell me you never used any ''crutch'', whether it's a person or a substance or whatever.
A majority of the things in the autopsy was prescribed by a doctor and at moderate levels do some research oh the heart failure was from an enlarged heart he has had for years his doctor said aside from that he was healthy

Interesting....I saw A Morrisett at a club in Hollywood on her birthday before she was famous. It was pretty much right after the radio started playing her hit song. It was half full. Now i wish I could remember the name of that club. I don't think it was Club Lingerie - my memory is hazy bc of all of the ___.
It was a beautiful club back in the days where you could smoke cigarettes even though I believe it had a back patio. Oh well - California is ruined now thanks to Governor Gavin Newsom (Nuisance).

Great song. "Aurora" is named after Aurora Ave in Seattle. Kurt Cobain used to go to a motel on Aurora to shoot up. Though that's not what the song is about. One of my favorite songs is "Stacked Actors" 🍻

RIP musical angels of the earth
That says it all.
You're a fool.
Dave is the head of Foo but Taylor was the heart. The first tribute show was beautiful and seeing his son play like his dad got me in the feels.
It's so sad, he was such a badass of a drummer
can't agree more sad he is gone
And he seemed like mostly a positive type of guy. We needed more of that.

Stoic philosophy was a major tool that I used to make myself better.
Good luck,. the only one that can save you,... is you!
I'm here if you need support.
Did you just you didn’t believe a fact i.e. toxicology report? What a world we live in today where people are suspicious of experts and facts yet love lies

Taylor Hawkins death from Charlie Vector 0019, forced to choose or leave the band by ORDER of Dave Grohl
So tired of this Taylor Hawkins crap the guy basically killed himself with the drug overdose and he gets memorialized like he was some type of hero while Eddie Van Halen died of cancer after he valiantly fought it and he doesn't even get anything
Safe, and effective.
Taylor Hawkins is one of the top 10 best drummers of all time. I feel sorry for Dave Grohl since Dave lost two iconic friends in the rock industry (one being Taylor and the other being Kurt Cobain).
Speaking of icons, I can't wait until next month when R N' R Stories covers the 2-year anniversary of Eddie Van Halen's passing.
I don't feel bad for Dave, I feel bad for Taylor, the guy who admitted of having a troubled relationship with drugs in the past and unfortunately relapsed. This didn't help either:
"Even though friends say Hawkins told Grohl and Foo Fighters’ management he wanted to scale back, they believe he agreed to continue touring with them to be a team player. '[A band like that] is a big machine [with] a lot of people on the payroll,' Cameron says. 'So you’ve got to really be cognizant of the business side of something when it’s that big and that has inherent pressure, just like any business.'
(...) Foo Fighters staged roughly 40 shows last year, and already had nearly 60 more on the books for 2022." (Rolling Stone, May 16, 2022)
It doesn't really matter who said what, the fact is Foo Fighters had one of the most brutal tour schedules in today's music/entertainment.
He was a good drummer, but definitely wasn't in "the top 10 best drummers of all time". He wasn't even the best drummer in Foo Fighters.
🤣🤣🤣
He was a decent drummer,. not even close to being in the top ten though.
Money doesn't equal talent,. Sorry.
I could name 10 drummer's/drummers that you probably have never even heard of before?
All of them drummers that Taylor would bow to himself.
His mom just died too.
Tragic!?
Really??
He did this to himself, he died using his favorite drug... There's no tragedy there ...
Every knee will bend, every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is lord.
he was a cool dude. Not much of a fan of Foo but when he was the drummer for Alanis Morisette I thought he was smoking. That song "you oughta know" he's ruling those drums. He's missed. Was shocked when i heard he passed. Only the good die young, and the evil that men do lives on and on . . .RIP Taylor ain't gotta bad word to say about you.
Everything you said David is 100% the same thoughts I have on Mr Hawkins from start to finish sir. It's the perfect comment 💯🤝
Great video.
So sad, I was shocked when I heard of this .
We miss you Taylor!
I remember when "The Colour and the Shape" came out when I was 14 or 15, skipping school with my partner of (it ended up being) 3yrs, good times. I know Hawkins didn't really (if at all, I'm not sure) play on that album but nevertheless it's brought back good memories to think of it and those days again. If I'm honest I kinda fell out of listening to them a couple years afterwards though but RIP Mr Taylor, I get what he might have been going through, I stopped benzos and heroin a while ago and thank goodness for that because that shit doesn't discriminate 😔 But he's left a huge legacy so while it's disastrous what's happened there will be kids picking up Foo Fighters albums for years and years and being inspired by his drumming and I'm sure that would make him happier than ever
Enlarged heart? Hmm...no idea what would cause that.
Lots of hate and nuts in comments.
Dude. A 15 minute video titled "Taylor Hawkins' Tragic Death" should, maybe, do more than mention that death in passing... You act like there's going to be new information, and there is hardly any information at all. VERY disappointing.
I can sum it up for ya. 🎼👈🔑💉👉☠️
@@latentsea My mind knows that... But deep in my heart I want it to be a freak aneurysm or something.
Favorite album - First Album
Favorite song - Hey Johnny Park
Your heart exploding just means it's working. Trust the $cience guys.
Just a little pin prick, it’s mixed with love
i feel for dave first kurt and now taylor
He got that clotshot under extreme pressure from his so called "best friend". If that was true Dave would have allowed him to choose what he put in his body and not force him to take a dangerous untested injection.
It's crazy how much bullshit you Trumpers get brainwashed with
first thing that went thru my mind when I heard he called the front desk complaining of chest pain
He needs Justice
he asked Dave to cut down on the number of shows and instead Dave increased the number of shows. Dave KNEW Taylor was having problems, and ignored them.
Why does the narrator of these videos always end his videos with upward intonation?
Miss you so much bro.❤😢🙊🙉🙈
His death was so quiet I barely heard people talk about it, just like Neil Peart's death
Did you have to post this today of all days?
Rip💖👏👍😎
Unfortunately he didn't learn and was a victim of his vices... It's a shame as he was a very gifted musician But more importantly was a very gifted and genuine person who was loved by many... It's amazing when he accomplished and how many people you touched but sadder how much he left behind...
Enlarged 💛
Why all the good dudes. Heavens rocking man
R.I.P.🥁🤘
Do not roll up your sleeve for Fow-Chee.
God bless
of course, I'm sad when anyone dies, but when people are around a drug addicted rocker for 25yrs how in the hell can any of them say that they were "...surprised by their death."? BY DRUGS!
Taylor, hopefully you've found the peace that you have been looking for and are able to rest in it.
he wasn't in active addiction anymore. He wasn't getting high. A lot of people are on a cocktail to help them stay alive. You don't know anything. Don't tell me you never used any ''crutch'', whether it's a person or a substance or whatever.
@@sebp400 the autopsy makes it pretty clear that he had some level of addiction dude.
@@sebp400 He died of heart failure due to a drug overdose. He had a cocktail of drugs in his system. He was active.
A majority of the things in the autopsy was prescribed by a doctor and at moderate levels do some research oh the heart failure was from an enlarged heart he has had for years his doctor said aside from that he was healthy
@@sebp400 💯

It was lovely seeing Taylor’s son Shane play the drums w them
Taylor enjoyed the Colombian and went out that way. He had a great life. Taylor had a cool van Chexy Metal
Hey. Did you ever talk about Tina Bell?
Soo sad😢
I wonder how many
It kind of seems like Taylor Hawkins is becoming the nipsey hustle of alternative rock
RIP....
Terribly sad
Don’t take drugs
But some are so good!
Especially those from phizer
Also, don't become a Trumper
Safe and effective
If your not a junkie, probably is
@@IamGalvatron make sure to get your booster!
@@flhxri I’m not a heroin junkie so I’m not worried.
Like thalidomide
Interesting....I saw A Morrisett at a club in Hollywood on her birthday before she was famous. It was pretty much right after the radio started playing her hit song. It was half full. Now i wish I could remember the name of that club.
I don't think it was Club Lingerie - my memory is hazy bc of all of the ___.
It was a beautiful club back in the days where you could smoke cigarettes even though I believe it had a back patio. Oh well -
California is ruined now thanks to Governor Gavin Newsom (Nuisance).
Rip god 🙏🙏 bless
