hero – The Diary of The Deranged Writer

Give III

Gone after making the ultimate sacrifice
I have life because you freely offered yours
Vanished from earth, immortal in memory
Everlasting is the impact of your valor

Give (Poetry Series): I, II, III

Song of the Moment CVIII: Dave Grohl’s “How Do You Do”

Today is the 57th birthday of Dave Grohl, the frontman of my all-time favorite band, Foo Fighters, and one of my personal heroes. For tonight’s Song of the Moment, I almost chose a Nirvana, Foo Fighters, or even a Them Crooked Vultures track, but then I chose an underrated deep cut instead.

Song of the Moment XCIX: Foo Fighters’ “My Hero”

I almost wrote a lengthy Song of the Moment post, but I ended up erasing it entirely. Honestly, tonight, I’d rather prepare myself for my second mind-blowing Foo Fighters show tomorrow night at the Singapore Grand Prix. And one of the things I’m looking forward to is singing along as the ferocious Dave Grohl shreds the guitar and screams these lines from my Song of the Moment, “My Hero”:

There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He’s ordinary

Happiest weekend, everyone! See you in the next post!
