Foo Fighters have given us a brand new taste of their upcoming tenth record, ‘Medicine At Midnight’.
‘Waiting On A War’ is an emotionally led Acoustic ballad which stems from a very personal event for Dave Grohl.
He says:
“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.”
‘Medicine At Midnight’ is set to be released on February 5th 2021.
