I met Taylor in 1985 when he came to my studio to make his first recordings with a local band that included Jon Davison (the current singer of YES) playing the bass. They were super talented young men and full of charm and enthusiasm. We became fast friends. Some mornings, Taylor would wait in front of my house for me to wake up so we could talk about music. He was like a sponge; soaking it all up. I knew then that he was gonna go places with his talent. I could not imagine at the time just how far he would go. Godspeed, young brother.

[@djm4457]

That's a wonderful story. My sincere condolences to you sir. Surely you will forever treasure those memories.

[@pascalmerschaudio]

Thanks for this Sir

[@CJ-Fischer]

So he was 13 when you met him? That’s pretty crazy

They are still my favorite band, but listening to this song now is definitely difficult for me. I grew up on Foo Fighters (1999). Rest In Peace Taylor Hawkins!

[@michellemiles9966]

Dave has said this song as he wrote it is literally about him wanting to learn to fly a plane. But also that it means something different to every person who hears it... and that's cool too.

[@benshafer5198]

RIP Taylor Hawkins. There has always been a lot of love out there for this band. David Grohl and Taylor pretty much the nicest guys in rock music. These guys have jammed with and collaborated with rock royalty (Jimmy Page & John Paul Jones, David Bowie, Paul McCartney, Brian May of Queen to name a handful), and Taylor was such a massive part of that. An excellent drummer and known to be an all around good soul. He added so much to the band's personality. Feel bad for Dave as he must be devastated; especially with the loss of bandmate Kurt Cobain, and now his stated best friend and cohort in FF 💔

[@Melissa02891]

Roger Taylor and his son Rufus are also gutted by this news. It's all so very sad.

We hope that we played this song at the next Rockin'1000 event in Paris, France this year.

Man...I have cried since late Friday night. I can't imagine how distraught Dave Grohl and FF's are... I was taking my grandson to his first Foo concert in 4 weeks😢...he loves them, it's 'our thing' together ...singing FF songs and drumming in the car. He is 8. He is heart broken too. RIP Taylor💙

This was a gut punch. RIP Taylor Hawkins. You're drumming for the angels now!

[@jeffreyaverett1800]

Just saw him a few months ago and am still in shock. Such a great musician and performer. His joy of life and comical stance was infectious. He was like Animal from the Muppets when he got behind the drum kit. He will be missed deeply. ✌️

[@Melissa02891]

I'm actually glad you did the lyric version, I was nervous I wouldn't be able to watch the whole thing. Rest in sweet peace Taylor Hawkins🌹

Dave Grohl and Taylor Hawkins gave the most epic speach when they inducted Rush into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. They're not just musicians but music fans themselves. They named all the Rush albums in order and seem to be down to earth guys with a great sense of humor. Gone too young. RIP Taylor.

[@kellifranklin4432]

I remember that induction. It was epic!

[@jasonfrost3693]

Ah man, gotta watch their videos. They put soo much work into them!

[@robtucker6303]

I am just stunned... RIP Taylor.

[@diogenesagogo]

The whole album, There Is Nothing Left to Lose, is brilliant. It was released in 1999

[@bassacoustic1549]

Their peak IMO. Great album.

[@NoYoutubeName1]

It is. I love it. I really like their first two albums too. But after that Grohl became too pompous and driven to try to become influential for the sake of it, it’s just narcissism. And it affected their work.

[@NoYoutubeName1]

He also scoffed at the idea of discussing Taylors out of hand drug use (when he was alive) “Pff I don’t talk about That with him nahh. So I just wrote a song for him but didn’t tell him about it” Just thought I’d add that in case someone accuses me of being to harsh at Times Like These

[@salacca2297]

3am when I saw he passed my mouth was literally agape......I grew up listening to these people. I'll never forget how hott Taylor looked as a female flight attendant. Great drummer and vocalist. He will be missed and music will be different without him.

[@manna6618]

Just commented the same thing! It was so confusing...how does a dude look THAT hot dressed as a chick?!!!

[@ShaunHensley]

Learn to fly to me speaks to the concept of reaching full potential as a human, being able to let go of crippling fear To experience what life has to offer

[@dirtygore]

The song is just about dave wanting to be a pilot.

[@ShaunHensley]

@@dirtygore And the band name Pearl Jam is about one of their aunts named Pearl's incredible jam

[@GroinStrain_]

This is a hilarious video, featuring Tenacious D. I also always remember those Italian singers performing this song trying to get Foo Fighters to come to Italy - and it worked! Thoughts are with Dave Grohl, and obviously all the friends and family - RIP Taylor Hawkins

[@bigt243]

REST IN BEATS Taylor Hawkins. One hell of a musician!

[@giggigidy6998]

Many great songs are open to individual interpretation...it's how you find something meaningful and relatable in the song to connect with.

[@Horrormoviefan9]

My favorite foo fighters song. 🧡

[@TheConservativeinaction]

Rip Taylor Hawkins. Gonna rock in heaven and learn to fly.

[@avestuart]

Grohl has stated that he wanted to attain his private pilot license and this was the basis for this song. As a pilot myself, i'm not seeing the connection to the lyrics, but he also stated that he discovered that it was going to be a lot of study and effort to get the PPL and he stopped. And it is a lot of study, I think the PPL is the hardest to earn because you have to learn literally everything. It actually gets a bit easier in a lot of ways the as you acquire more advanced ratings. On another note, flying out of Boeing Field in Seattle, there is a departure procedure called the CBAIN1 departure which features a KURRT waypoint.

[@STEELCITYBERMA]

Very cool band with a lot of good songs! RIP Taylor Hawkins

I feel like we just lost the John Bonham of our generation... and Taylor Hawkins was also an accomplished singer & songwriter. R.I.P.😪

We just lost the Taylor Hawkins of our generation. I would like to think they had their own generations without comparison. Love and piece to Taylor and his family, band mates, and fans. You are loved and missed.

[@sumonjamal1653]

@@chrisschumacher4418 You would like to think... but that's not how everyone else thinks. The reason I brought up John Bonham was that he was greatest of that time... and everything Taylor Hawkins did in his lifetime was inspired by prior generations of drummers, like Bonham, Neil Peart, Charlie Watts, Ringo Starr, Roger Taylor, etc... It's an honor to put Taylor Hawkins in the league of the greatest, like John Bonham. The same way we can bring up Mike Tyson & compare him w/ boxers like Sugar Ray Leonard, Muhammed Ali, George Foreman, Joe Louis, etc..

[@chrisschumacher4418]

@@sumonjamal1653 I agree. I'm not fighting your stance on this. Being a 50 yr old person I get the Zeppelin reference, and respect it. John and Talor were in different times and both need respect, not comparison. Love to both, not comparison. In their time the influence was similar. And time will tell. Not taking away from either. JB was one of if not the greatest.

[@sumonjamal1653]

This is a great rock song for a number of reasons…one reason is illustrated in your discussion of what the lyrics mean…the lyrics are SO evocative, and we can all feel what the lyrics might mean, to us, without any definitive answer.

[@evanerys]

This may be the closest thing to a perfect pop rock song. Like you said, it's tune is so catchy you can ignore the lyrics, yet there is something there to hear when you go back to it. It's long enough to not want more, and short enough to not want less. The bridge gives variety without wandering too far. It's hard to point to any aspect of this song and say "they (he) didn't nail that."
