Foo Fighters - The Last Song Lyrics






This is the sound
The here and the now
You got to talk the talk, the talk, the talk
To get it all out

I listen
I listen
I listen

But you're out of tune
You're so out of tune

This is the last song (This is the last song)
This is the last song
That I will dedicate to you

Something I've found
Yea, That want to turn around
You got to walk the walk, the walk, the walk
To make any ground

You're pushing
You're pushing
You're pushing

But there ain't no room
No there ain't no room

This is The last song (This is the last song)
This is the last song (This is the last song)
That I will dedicate to you
I made my peace
And now I'm trough
This is the last song
That I will dedicate to you

And yours is a name
I will never name again
I will never name again

We pretend it doesn't matter
We pretend it all away
We pretend it all away

We pretend
We pretend
We pretend

But it ain't no use
This is the last song (This is the last song)
This is the last song (This is the last song)
That I will dedicate to you
I made my peace
And now I'm through

This is the last song
That I will dedicate to you
To you
To you
To you

Foo Fighters The Last Song Comments
  1. J.... Z....

    This is the Last soooooooonggg!!!!!!!🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎶🎵🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

  2. J.... Z....

    In your honor ❤️

  3. I.... ....

    1:56 probably one of the best Foo fighters riffs in my opinion!

  4. E.... a....

    it might be funny if this was the last song lol

  5. I.... S....

    I remember for some reason, I thought of Diary of a Wimpy Kid when I heard this song... Probably because of a similar title, the last straw.

  6. D.... 9....

    1:56 best part

  7. K.... ....

    Fuck You Miley!

  8. J.... 0....

    Beginning also sounds like the beginning of wind up

  9. A.... M....

    *makes a song out an already used riff*

  10. J.... D....

    You'd think _The Last Song_ would be the last track on the album.

    J.... D....

    "The Last Song". Sixth in the album...

  11. G.... F....

    Sounds like Dave Smalley in Down by Law

  12. L.... W....

    Rip kurt cobain

  13. 1.... ....

    I swear I've heard that little chord riff that plays around the start (After the first 2 bars) from another foo fighter song. But like which one?!? Does anyone else hear it?

    Edit* It reminded me of the chord riff that plays in Breakout when he starts screaming. Not sure if it's the same or not.

    1.... ....

    Taylor has described this song as "what Breakout should've sounded like". They just straight up used the riff from Breakout.

  14. S.... T....

    Can definitely hear the Killing Joke.

    S.... T....

    Love KJ and Dave is a big fan but this always reminded me of Husker Du. Very Bob Mould sounding guitar.

  15. T.... ....

    ♫ This is the last song ♫

  16. j.... g....

    we sometimes gotta let go of people dear to us, and some of them are fuckin' gut wrenching. Dave is going straight to the point; there's no coming back this time.

  17. I.... ....

    That riff at 1:55 ...

    I.... ....

    yeah men, i think that's the single most wasted riff, and of course vocal part, in the entire world. i just need to hear it a couple more times.

  18. 1.... ....

    YOU'RE PUSHEEN
    YOU'RE PUSHEEN
    YOU'RE PUSHEEN

    AND YOU'RE JUST SO CUTE
    YOU'RE JUST SO DAMN CUTE

    THIS IS THE LAST CAT
    THIS IS THE LAST CAT

    AND I WILL DEDICATE TO IT
    BE A BITCH AND MAKE LOVE OOOHHH

    THIS IS THE LAST CAT
    AND I WILL DEDICATE TO IT

    1.... ....

    1.... ....

    lolno fuck cats. They make people crazy fun fact like seriously

  19. f.... c....

    great song!

  20. 8.... ....

    Dave Grohl sounds a little like Burton C. Bell in this song. :) Great song. 

  21. A.... C....

    seen them twice, they rock and/or roll

  22. T.... ....

    I've been listening to the Foo for years and years, but, I've only had one album (no cd .. wtf Lol) anyway, I just bought In Your Honor today, great great choice..

  23. P.... D....

    .Ok; thanks for yours comments, .. in their outlines, however../ ne'er'less, all state on a declinal XD ?, isn't it ?./ coz'i'm not a fine specialist and I'm neither not a real first'time'fan'..so./ Could you help, by either, by the sames responses ?./ private joke. [;p] .

  24. N.... M....

    well,the sound heared like breakout interluede

    N.... M....

    THANK YOU, couldnt figure it out what song it sounded like

    N.... M....

    I came here looking for this comment! I applaud you

  25. T.... F....

    && was written in 1990 :P

  26. D.... A....

    search Friend of a friend by F.F. it's a song for Kurt

  27. h.... ....

    Very misleading Mr. Grohl, putting this song halfway through the CD haha.

  28. L.... E....

    He had a hard time talking about Kurt and didnt want to anymore, in the first while after he died he didnt even want to answer any interviews about him. It is true though he hasnt written any more songs about him, even though the song "let it die" ,which is one of my favorites, made it sound like it was about him, he's never said it was and had a bad feeling when he published that song.

    L.... E....

    I should have known was about kurt cobain and him losing his friend jimmy to herion

  29. v.... ....

    Breakout #2.

  30. h.... i....

    That opening riff sounds damn familiar...

    h.... i....

    still a good song but you are right LOL

    h.... i....

    Sounds like breakout

    h.... i....

    Radio Friendly unit shifter? I feel like maybe because of the drums more than the riff.

  31. O.... ....

    its just a matter of timeeeeeeee

  32. E.... S....

    @Jayguevara1982 i think its about courtney.

  33. M.... T....

    @harobmx123 That sucks. Thought you were talking about the song.

  34. h.... ....

    @MattyTheTurner motorbike crash,loss of life/ job/friends im half paralyzed

  35. M.... T....

    0:00

    BREAKOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUT!
    BREAKOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUTTTTT!!!

    Lol. Both great songs.

  36. M.... T....

    @harobmx123 You died inside, that's what happened.

  37. h.... ....

    this is really shit, i expected better wtf happenned?

  38. E.... T....

    THIS IS THE LAST SONG!

  39. M.... T....

    One of my favourites from this album.

  40. H.... C....

    i love this song, it is an awesome song... PERIOD!!

  41. P.... M....

    Zboub !

  42. J.... F....

    @puma0927 its great!!!!! haha

  43. I.... v....

    honestly this is one of the best songs of foo fighters ( IN MY OPINION )
    JUST LOVE THE REFRAIN !!!!

  44. m.... g....

    last song... isnt the last... whatever, music is awesome

  45. A.... R....

    @puma0927 Yup. They add an extra Em for 2 counts. =)

  46. S.... ....

    @gsimons506 Not a single song on this album I don't like. It's freakishly amazing, and yet just what I can expect from the Foo Fighters.

  47. r.... ....

    @ThePsychoGamer1337 It ain't no use!

  48. k.... b....

    they should play this during 2012 so that at least we die listening to something amazing

  49. L.... J....

    @Denyernator i know what you mean man it sucks all that screamo pop and rap stuff is crap except i like eminem and kid cudi but the foo fighters are my favorite band ever

  50. A.... D....

    What is wrong with the world? I search "The Last Song" in youtube and find only pop-rock and some crappy film. I had to actually put "foo fighters" at the end to find this. Shocking!

  51. L.... H....

    RIP kurt...

  52. S.... ....

    yeah equall to breakout

  53. A.... S....

    @MurlocAintGood "The Last Song" is actually the title of the book after which the movie was made, after which the song was named. If anyone's ripping off, then it's the author of the book, but this title is so generic that I wouldn't really call it that.
    It's like anything containing the word "Twilight" isn't a ripoff - it's WEATHER.

  54. O.... ....

    @CinematicXplosions this and friend of a friend Dave had admitted to being about Kurt. This is the last song was his way of saying enough is enough and it is time to move on.

  55. A.... S....

    @MurlocAintGood /headdesk

  56. C.... S....

    This is great.

  57. T.... G....

    @puma0927 yeah it sound like the chord progression

  58. A.... ....

    @pskrc no

  59. D.... ....

    he wrote it bcoz it needed writing for everybody...simple!
    the guy is talent :)

  60. C.... ....

    thats also wrong. dave wrote the song for his sister / cousin (don't remember exactly) and its about her ex husband.. he wrote it like HE was his sister / cousin.

  61. C.... ....

    fuck NO !!

  62. C.... ....

    doesn't have to be his story. he sometimes sings bout stuff friends or relatives had to deal with too..

  63. A.... ....

    the chords underneath sound so much like the ones from breakout

    such a good song tho, and from my favourite band of all time :) i want dave grohl to sing/play at my wedding. unless i can get the whole band to come.. but dave is my idol.

  64. C.... ....

    Wonder who he's talking about.

  65. k.... ....

    This definitely should've been a single. One of their catchiest ever songs, and I love the vocal interplay with Dave, Chris, and Taylor, which I wish we'd get more often (we sort of do on Word Forward). It's just strange how some great songs never end up as singles.

  66. A.... .....

    the main riff on this is the exact same as Breakout. Nice song though

  67. A.... C....

    I couldn't believe back in 2005 they didn't use this one as follow up single to Best of You... and songs like the mediocre No Way Back or DOA made it to a single... this is so catchy and powerful, love the vocal production in the chorus, it was because of this song (blew me away) that i bought in your honor, and of course bc of best of you... oh just imagine what would have happened if they released it as a single

  68. m.... ....

    My 2nd fav song on here ^__^

    m.... ....

    Whats your favourite?

  69. A.... Z....

    the last song dave dedicate to kurt....

  70. a.... t....

    Tooo big Me!!

  71. m.... ....

    i love this song too :-)

  72. p.... ....

    the beginning sounds like "breakout" at the part "BBBRREAAAKKKOUTT"

  73. A.... M....

    LOLOLOL just noticed that!!

  74. A.... M....

    ya totally! check out miracle of you have a chance!

  75. M.... E....

    Awsome.

  76. B.... S....

    does no one else find it funny how this isnt the last song on the side 1?

  77. p.... ....

    one of the most underrated foo songs

  78. T.... ....

    Such an awesome song from an awesome band.

    Foo For Life!

  79. a.... ....

    awesomee

  80. l.... ....

    the song rocks. but the riff sounds allot like the riff from BreakOut.

  81. C.... ....

    Dookie's rite. THIS SONG Ø∑N§!!!

  82. j.... f....

    Great!!!

  83. m.... ....

    dude wat a rockin song

  84. s.... ....

    I think the sorta unpopular songs of the Foo Fighters are better than the ones everyone knows like this is amazing

  85. D.... ....

    OWNAGE!

  86. R.... B....

    he saying its the last song he is gonna dedicate to kurt cobain. Thats what he says in interviews and stuff.

  88. i.... ....

    this is an awsome song dude, foo's don't do bad music, they rock thru and thru!

  89. K.... B....
