Today on Dave Grohl’s Birthday Foo Fighters have unleashed new track ‘Waiting On A War’. The track is from the band’s new album Medicine at Midnight which is set for release on the 5th February 2021.
The track shows an insight into how some of us are feeling at the start of 2021 and since the start of the pandemic. Grohl tells us;
“Last fall, as I was driving my daughter to school, she turned to me and asked, ‘Daddy, is there going to be a war?’ My heart sank as I realized that she was now living under the same dark cloud 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.“
