By FITSNews || We were raised on Kurt Cobain, but in the sixteen years (has it really been that long?) since his death we’ve come to view one of his former band mates with every bit as much respect.
And while Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters doesn’t have rock-n-roll martyr and “voice of a generation” on his resume, his band has emerged from the ashes of Nirvana to stake its claim as one of the most influential rock bands of the 2000s.
“Times Like These” is a cut from the band’s fourth album, One By One.
I, I’m a one way motorway
I’m a road that drives away, follows you back home
I, I’m a streetlight shining
I’m a white light blinding bright, burning off and on
(chorus)
It’s times like these you learn to live again
It’s times like these you give and give again
It’s times like these you learn to love again
It’s times like these time and time again
I, I’m a new day rising
I’m a brand new sky to hang the stars upon tonight
I, I’m a little divided
Do I stay or run away and leave it all behind
(chorus X4)

There is an unplugged version of this song is even better. When my father died tragically a few years back, this is one of the songs that got me through some dark days.
Rock on….
