Waiting On A War
I've been waiting on a war since I was young
Since I was a little boy with a toy gun
Never really wanted to be number one
Just wanted to love everyone
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this than
Just waiting on a war?
Everyday waiting for the sky to fall
Big crash on a world that's so small
Just a boy with nowhere left to go
Fell in love with a voice on the radio
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this than
Just waiting on a war?
Just waiting on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
Just waiting on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
I've been waiting on a war since I was young
Since I was a little boy with a toy gun
Is there more to this than just waiting on a war?
Just waiting on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
Just waiting on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
Just waiting on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
Just waiting on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
Because I need more
Yeah, I need more
Than just waiting on a war

You can divide the Foo Fighters entire discography by songs Dave wrote with his glasses on and songs Dave wrote with his glasses off. Both are good. This is a glasses on song.
That’s hilarious
perfect!
Yoooo 😂
my dude just described something I never could
As a long time Foo Fighters fan this made 100% perfect sense to me haha
"Fell in love with a voice on the radio".
I felt that.
As long as it wasn´t rush limbaughs.🤣
Nikki Omen!
Mr. New Vegas
This reminds me of something from Echoes silence patience & Grace
But, honestly!
Exactly my thoughts when I heard it. Still my favorite album. Amazing song btw.
And I'm kinda reminded of New Way Home's ending. It's a noticeable Foo Fighters style and it's great!
I tought the same
Like Come Alive. Yes
Just realised from 3:32 how much talent that takes as a drummer. Holy shit we really have just lost the best, that is some extreme talent right there. God I’m gonna miss Taylor, this is going to take some getting over.
Absolutely adore and agree with you about Taylor ❤
He will be remembered as one of the best drummers in the World when alive
As a child growing up in the suburbs of Washington DC, I was always afraid of war. I had nightmares of missiles in the sky and soldiers in my backyard, most likely brought upon by the political tension of the early 1980’s and my proximity to the Nation’s Capitol. My youth was spent under the dark cloud of a hopeless future.
Last fall, as I was driving my 11 year old daughter to school, she turned to me and asked, “Daddy, is there going to be a war?” My heart sank in my chest as I looked into her innocent eyes, because I realized that she was now living under that same dark cloud of a hopeless future that I had felt 40 years ago.
I wrote “Waiting On a War” that day.
Everyday waiting for the sky to fall. Is there more to this than that? Is there more to this than just waiting on a war? Because I need more. We all do.
This song was written for my daughter, Harper, who deserves a future, just as every child does.
Dave
Love you Dave. I grew up in the Valley, CA in the early 60's next to Lockheed. I was 4. The first time we heard the sonic booms, it scared us to death. Then in school we would Practice for a nuclear bomb by sitting under our desks, scared as hell. What a joke. Isn't it sad our kids are still scared of war. The irony of this, I ended working at VA for 16 yrs. To see the carnage of war is
Something awful , heartless we do to our men. Please no more
Everybody. Love you Dave and FOOS. Peace and happiness to
You and your family, and the world. Linda
Love all your music, this album & song. Love you on the drums
The most. Lol peace
No i am not crying you are
I live in Ukraine. Russia attacked Ukraine in 2014, annexed the Crimean peninsula and unleashed a war in eastern Ukraine by capturing part of Donbass. When in 2007 I told my colleagues at work that the only country that could attack Ukraine is Russia, most of them considered me an idiot. Because many residents of Ukraine considered Russia a friendly country, almost every resident of Ukraine has relatives who live in Russia. Unfortunately, my assumption that Russia would attack Ukraine came true and I was right. "War never changes".
You aren't writing to Dave I hope you know that lol But who knows, maybe he'll read it.
@@strangewayfaringstranger I was just writing my thoughts. Anyone can read. Peace to you
Times Like These and But Honestly's lovechild.
Haha AWESOME comment!! Perfect! 🍻
👏👏👏
Great observation!
Exactly
Great songs
Dave is just like wine, the older the better.
Amen
Like Eddie Vedder :)
@Krackatini I disagree. Wasting Light is my favorite album by a longshot.
@Justin Iverson f
Kkkkkk geeeenious
Me after listening to the first 3 minutes: "oh this is one of those warm and fuzzy Foo Fighters songs"
Dave: "hold my pots"
My feelings exactly
Fresh paahhhts!
@@sonofamachinegun8568 someone had to do it 🤣
why? It's literally a song about wanting to fight/die in a war in order to give life meaning. Not exactly warm and fuzzy, even for actual collapsists
*Just imagine how many people are listening to this with you right now* 🎧
And for the 1st time too
Just me. Truly alone. But I guess in a way, i'm not.
Genuinely believe Dave Grohl has the greatest rock history of any modern musician. From Scream to Nirvana to Foo Fighters, QotSA, Vultures, Tenacious D, Bill & Ted the list goes on forever
The ending was:
Unexpected
Needed
Enjoyed
yes yes and yes except for the part at 4:13
Congrats to Dave
Right? That whole D - A# - G chord thing pretty killer. Good build to the end of the track, as mentioned to the; unexpected, needed, enjoyed.

🙂
Prefer to be woke up towards the start
'Times Like These' + 'But, Honestly' = 'Waiting On A War'
I like your analogy. I love the song too.
Maybe not (but honestly)..
Maybe: Statues....
Like always. And that's why it has to be more than that
Gonna leave this region
✌🏻
Feel this is going to be one of those epic LIVE songs, everyone waiting for the ending to go mental. Rock on foos, Keep safe everyone 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
I was imaging the same situation when I listened to it!
The roof will fly off the building for that part. Or the sky will fly off (if outside).
I can’t wait to see them live once again. I still have my ticket on hold for the cancelled concert last June 2020 in Milan. Fuck you Covid
Yes!! Can't wait for the extended live version!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Yep, this song live will be great! I was thinking the same when I heard it (one minute ago, that is) 😁
I wonder how live rock music will be after covid ... 🙊 Going to a gig be like ..
Keys, cellphone, mask, alcohol, water. Personal Bubble !! 😅
Maybe we'll be able to bounce btw each other -in our bubbles- instead of rocking out the usual way. That would be fun to watch from the band's point of view I guess. LOL.
This is a mix if "Echos, silence, patience and grace" and " In your Honor"
AND ITS A PURE GOLD
My FF is BACK
it's will be crazy in a show!!!
Yeah, great vibe
And TINLTL
Kinda reminds me of their song "But honestly. Acoustics in the early and rock n roll in the end. I hope they made the end part a lil longer
Yessss
I was thinking the same thing, I love that song.
The absolute KINGS of the “build-up” - always have been.
0:57 yeah
Pink floy
@@blackwing1996 and foo fighters and TØP
But, honestly, I have to admit this song sounds a lot like another Foo's song. Love it!
I thought that too with the build
Yeah for sure, (New Way Home, Come Alive, Let It Die) all songs that build up to something but i love it too
Come on, there must be someone out there who heard "Territorial Pissings" after 03:35 and specially after 03:47 (Listen to the melody the lead guitar is playing) LOL I love it
I heard it 🖤🖤🖤
@@alicek.7194 So do I ❤️🖤
I hear it
i heard it too, and an also the "new way home" reference. this is another true foo fighters song :D
It’s exactly the same. 👍👍👍
What a start of 2021!! Let’s hope it will all get better soon. This release is a start! Who agrees with me?
By the way, we are an upcoming band who are very inspired by the music of the Foo Fighters. If you are interested, head over there 👈 and let us know what you think of our songs. Especially now, it is very hard for new bands to let people hear their music. Your support would help us a lot!
It's going to get worse alot worse
Foo's keeping the music alive. You can always hear their passion for music in the tunes. Btw. Checked your music out as well. U guys are good! Keep doing what youre doing!
@@dangerousbeans8067 already is getting a lot worse here in the UK, however I do see it getting a lot better globally this year
Yeah definitely worse, especially with the new strains of covid😂
ESSA FICOU BOA DEMAIS, HEIN!!!!! 😳
Crifra Club por aqui 😳😳😳
Aoo eita 😳
O bom gosto, meu pai!!!!
Video aula😳
Oloco olha o Cifra aqui kkkkkk
Reminds me on but honestly, from the album echoes, silence, patience and grace. Am I the only one?
HELL YESSSSS
Spot on 👍
I want Let it Die 2.0
Nope not the only one love this
I like how he’s finally using pleasing melodies again. Has a very subtle nirvana unplugged vibe with classic FF buildup.
at the end the solo guitar plays notes from territorrial pissings :D
Nothing better than waking up and seeing that your favorite band released new music
No one else finds it incredible to think that more people will come in the future because the entire album was released. And to those people of the future a greeting of those of us who enjoy the single.
shame shame was special
No some of mine was incredible, yet not quite the usual Foo
This, this is the perfect blend of old and new, a true banger
I thought that shame shame was nothing new; really nothing special. It was long, dragging and a disappointing first single. Idk I guess it just didnt speak to me. No son of mine was great and completely different than shame shame. It really got me excited for the new album because I thought I could finally see the heavy side of FF that dave talks about frequently. Then, waiting on a war kindda disappointed me again. It is unnecessarily long and repetitive and follows the typical foo fighters formula - it was kindda predictable from the beggining that it would elevate gradually and end with big guitars and drums. And the sudden ending of the instruments while dave gives his last breath is not new also. So I got my hopes back down.
@@Ajo7a agree
@@Ajo7a no son of mine is a shit - song definitely. it has no beautiful or interesting to sing and read lyrics, the majority of sounds isn’t opened, there is no normal dynamics in this song because it starts with one riff and it ends with the same one. it is like Mötorhead and i think you will agree with the fact that all Motörhead songs are same
@@Ajo7a speaking about shane shame - well, this song is absolutely unusual for FF because there is no culmination in Shame Shame. this song has no parts where you see the difference with the other parts of the song. it is all SAME. but to tell the truth i liked it. i don’t listen it more than twice a day, but it feels as a tasty kind of rock thing
@@Ajo7a At first I really disliked shame shame, but then it grew on me pretty hard, especially the refrain.
No son of mine is nothing special yet entertaining, kinda borrows from motorhead and/or Rammstein (especially in the drums side of things). A song that's probably really great live
This song is as you say,closer to typical foo fighters (wich is kinda what i like, ngl), yet it has a mood I don't find in other FF songs, and still sounds good, But hey, taste and colors.
I don't think you should give up your hopes on the album yet, so far we got 3 really different songs, so if there's as much variety in the whole album then it will probably have great stuff :)
We ARE at war!!! & NOT against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers of darkness in heavenly places. The Lord's soldiers are regularly on their knees in God's presence, doing battle against the devil's that work to mark you
love the art direction of this music video.
Fucking illuminati sign again.
its just fucking symbolism
@@KeloRL_ Symbolism is a powerful weapon.
@@borismilojevic1052 it indeed is, used on so many things blinded people cant even see it anymore
@@KeloRL_ Take a chill pill dude.
New Way Home vibes at the end there 🔥🔥🔥💯
There’s a sprinkling of “but, honestly” in there too. It’s fuckin great
Agreed. Which has always been one of my favourites because of the build and the climax
Agree !!! I was wondeing which song it reminded me
You who reads this. You're going the right way, be proud to be one of the first to listen to this super song.
Good to know that there are good people left on this Earth 👍
I've been enjoying the trippy cartoon thing, keep on!
Also, really appreciated the ending, totally unexpected and unapologetically foo
Yesss I love the art in this and no son of mine
love it
You love that eye in triangle? That is cute?
I would honestly prefer a still image to listen to the song. The constantly looping images for me are just a shallow eyecatcher that I can't quite wrench my eyes away from to the point where I just scroll down instead and look at comments.
"Just waiting on a war?" Yep, it`s very close now. In 2022 i was here..
Well, they waited for a war and lo and behold, it f*cking came!
Another banger. This one's going to be good, front to back
HAAAAAH!!! Yeah, sure...
Glu
Yeah cause you just know the whole thing couldn’t be good
I bet it’s nothing but bangers on this album like ..wasting light
UUUH, yes, Wasting Light... all bangers........
And 13 years later, i'm Still that teenager discovering their music and traveling to a world that is only mine.
Your music saves me every day. Thanks from here to eternity guys, you rock!
Shame Shame really didn't do this album any favours. No Son Of Mine and Waiting On A War are GREAT songs.
I LOVE sham shame. It’s got such a cool groove to it. I can’t wait to hear the album back to back.
It does have a great drum pattern though
@@dinglevondingus you're right but as the first single/ song to promote an album?
@@HughezyEntertainment for sure! It set the tone for the album perfectly so far.
@@HughezyEntertainment I think Shame Shame was a good choice for a lead single since it sets up what to expect. This time is something unique imo. Still it is my least favourite lead single but I imagine it will sound better listened to with all the other songs from the album. In other words, it's good that it informs us what to expect but it isn't that great of a song.
no more waiting
Who knows. Putin's a fucking MANIAC man
[Verse 1]
I've been waiting on a war since I was young
Since I was a little boy with a toy gun
Never really wanted to be number one
Just wanted to love everyone
[Chorus]
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this
More to this, more to this than
Just waiting on a war?
Just waiting on a war?
[Verse 2]
Every day waiting for the sky to fall
Big crash on a world that's so small
Just a boy with nowhere left to go
Fell in love with a voice on the radio
[Chorus]
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this
More to this, more to this than
Just waiting on a war?
Just waiting on a war?
[Post-Chorus]
Just waiting on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
Just waiting on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
[Bridge]
I've been waiting on a war since I was young
Since I was a little boy with a toy gun
[Chorus]
Is there more to this
More to this, more to this than
Just waiting on a war?
Just waiting on a war?
[Post-Chorus]
Just waiting on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
Just waiting on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
Just waiting on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
Just waiting on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
[Outro]
Because I need more
Yeah, I need more
Just waiting on a war
Just waiting on a war
Yeah, I need more
(For this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
Just waiting on a war)
Yeah, I need more
(For this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
Just waiting on a war)

Thanks
Rest in peace taylor. Your war is over, but we remain to recollect and enjoy what you gave us in the short time we had you.
The ending 🤘🥁looking forward to hear that live
Hello, How are you doing today? Nice meeting you here.
I LOVE FOO FIGHTERS
The build is pure, the lyrics poignant for the times. Thanks for keeping it real, DG!
Now make sure you all love and take care of each other, there is definitely more to this than that if you catch the drift ❤️💙
Nirvana starting peeking out of the grave at 3:08 and then said fuck it I'ma just play Territorial Pissings at 3:35 #changemymind
Yeeeees. This makes the song even better. I love it!
Defo Psissings tribute, Songs are about the same thing.
Just came to check out if anyone else got it, and here you are. Cookie to you! [:
You're right they're the same chords i think
The build up at 3:09 just perfect!
This will sound awesome when live! Can't wait to see a concert! Just come to Brazil already!!!
Rock in Rio 2021? De ser así, nos veremos allí. Saludos desde Argentina, hermano!
Shame Shame was a new air; No Son Of Mine was brutal. But this has really excited me more about what's coming up on this new album. It has that Foo Fighters essence.
We’re the first 2000 people to listen this song, holy shit! 🤘🏻😎
I'm putting my comment here to record this moment
@ same here
Truly an honor
this is the first song foos have released since wasting light that has really made my heart sing. so espg inspired
Hello, How are you doing today? Nice meeting you here.
To everyone who's birthday is in January... cheers to you my friend
Thanks
Perfect. ✨✨✨ If only people, would hear this Correctly. Peace, Thank You Guys. ✨✨✨
Hello, How are you doing today? Nice meeting you here.
This album's really showing off how versatile they are... by the way, happy birthday Dave!🎂
To be fair, in this track's case, it sounds pretty reminiscent of 90's/early 2000's Foo-- so it's kinda them showing off how versatile they still CAN be 😅 The first single showed that they can be unpredictable, the 2nd track showed that they can be extremely predictable with their sound, and this one shows that they can still sound similar to how they used to. It's pretty interesting, actually
One of the best songs i have heard ever 🙏♥️. Happy Birthday Dave🎂🎁🎈🎉
Something interesting about the video is the child is skipping, the punk is walking, and the soldier is running. I’m not sure what significance it has to the song but they make for interesting visuals. Also, if anyone is reading this and hasn’t, look up Dave Grohl’s statement on the song he released alongside the video. It gives a lot more meaning to it IMO.
Thank you so much
It's a nice gift for us. Happy Birthday Mr Grohl!
Grunge was cool, and this is cool too. May the Gods of rock bestow their blessings upon thee.
"Hey, Billy, what was your favourite Foo Fighters song?"
"I really liked the one where Dave talks about waiting on a war for a looooong time."
Waiting eternity on a good Foo Fighter's song.
Finally...
it's here.
Surely this isn't implying that their other songs are bad or anything, right?
@@littleonion216 Kind of, I wasn't too happy with their latest releases.
Their first albums are evergreens with no single filler for sure.
@@wickedhyperstyler Fair enough, no person's gotta like everything from a creator after all
*This album is just going to be insane I know*
Bingo
I really hope so
I almost lost faith in good music. Been a fan of foo since foo was worth fighting for. This gives me hope.
Without bands like Foo Fighters still making new music, rock would be completely dead today.
Lmfao what??
Happy Birthday dear Dave!!! thanks for all music and inspiration, thanks to you I´m musician. you´re like a father on music to me. thsnks to be at all times
with the music. thanks!!!
I absolutely LOVE it..But there isn't a Foo Fighters song I don't like..🎶 I love you guys so much..❤ And Happy Birthday Dave I hope you have an awesome day..🥳
Hello, How are you doing today? Nice meeting you here.
I cant stop my imagination from picturing live version of this song, cant wait for it!!!
That Album will give 2021 a good beginning!
If let it die and come alive had a baby. Unbelievable song!
I love how diverse this album has been so far
I love listening to the sad songs of the foo fighters, hopefully you too
Just when I thought I wouldn't get to hear a signature Taylor Hawkins drum part... Brilliant.
This song reminds me of this person I used to know we started hanging around dec 2020 n back in January this song kept playing on the radio while we hangout together n now we r strangers to each other
Hello, How are you doing today? Nice meeting you here.
Very insightful to male psychology. The drive for conflict does ease up with age.
Nobody gonna go to war with the Foo!!! Your wait gonna be eternity
Awesome. Sounds like a Beatles kind of song, only with a twist of Foo.
This song gives me hope in life, faith in humanity
Happy Birthday Dave ! Happy Birthday Our Hero.
Hello, How are you doing today? Nice meeting you here.
Imagine opening a gig with this song!
Still one of the greatest memories in music I have is seeing them at Slane Castle in Ireland. 80,000+ people going mental in the mud, what a day :)
This has such a classic Foo Fighters vibe and I love it!
Happy birthday to me and Dave! Its a pleasure to make birthday in the same day as the legend! 🤘
HAPPIEST BIRTHDAY DAVE!!!🥳 and thank you for spoiling us the ways you do!!!
Yeah I like it a lot. Wouldn't have gone out of my way to listen to it but they played this last week at my best friends funeral.
Its amazing that every Foo Fighters album just gets better and better
You genuinely think this is better than their earlier stuff?
Rick Beato, thanks for sending me here! Love it!
Hello, How are you doing today? Nice meeting you here.
this song is amazing, i can't wait for the album 🥺
also happy birthday dave grohl
Happy birthday Dave
This is their Wonderwall.
Calm down sparky....
What a great evening now, with Dave and Foo Fighters!
I can picture the crowds singing parts of this.
Hello, How are you doing today? Nice meeting you here.
OH WOW I Can't WAIT to Hear this LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hello how are you doing today 💝
damn the part where it really picks up at around 3:20 is so tight i love it
it's Dave's Birthday today and what a great gift he gave us
JUST WAITING ON A (February 5th for this album)
Best Foo Fighters song ever!
I'm getting massive But Honestly vibes from this song
I have to say Dave
Everyone loves you for sticking to the punk rock routes. I’m not sure what has happened your music is very different now and that’s ok I guess. I’m not sure what I’m going on about anyways happy birthday Dave
Hello, How are you doing today? Nice meeting you here.
best song from the new album so far
I agree Kevin 😂
Can't wait to sing to this in the car
Can't wait for the album!
Same dude
I’m doing a tutorial of this, check my channel for the video :)
Happy Birthday dear Dave! I met you once in a drugstore. You and your sweet daughter were behind me in line. You were holding a Valentine's balloon for her. I see your baby is a wonderful drummer too. I wish you and your family a wonderful, happy, safe and fulfilling 2021. Thank you for your Hanukkah songs too. Happy Birthday!
Rip Taylor. For ever in our spirits
Goodbye Taylor Hawkins, you were amazing. Rest in piece.
This is really beautiful. Almost makes me feel hopeful, deep down inside. Almost...
Thanks Dave for the great Gift! Happy birthday you beautiful human!
3:10 onward had me hyped to the same level as the first time I heard the free bird solo. Now I'm just sad that it didn't last as long
I bet they’ll eventually extend the ending when playing live. It’s definitely setup for it!
@@jamezason yeah, when I listen to it I can visualise Dave singing the verse & the crowd replying with the chorus. This is definitely gonna be one for the setlist
A tried and tested Foo Fighters formula. Perfect!
Me encantó :D
Hola
Mi favorita hasta ahora
Hola! :D
