Dave Letterman talked about how important this song was to him when he was recovering from a nearly fatal illness, it was so genuine, I will always have respect for Dave because of that

Hey, it wasn't just Dave's life flashing by so quickly. I watched Letterman nearly every night in college with my roommates when he was at NBC. Now, I'm graying, bald, and nearing retirement. What a spectacular final act by the Foo Fighters and Barbara Gaines.

I tend to watch that ending montage every now and then. The montage mixed with the rockin’ music from Foo Fighters really encapsulated the show’s overall attitude and themes into a neat little package. Kudos to Barbara Gaines and her team for this huge undertaking of pouring over thousands of hours of footage to take the fans of the show, new and old alike, on a 33-year trip down memory lane. It was a marvelous send-off and a brilliant bookend to an historic run of late night television. Brava and bravo to everyone who worked on the show on a job well done.

Just love this montage to an awesome song. Dave was like a late night god to us that now closer to 60 versus 20. He was an agent of chaos and not afraid to push the envelope wide open. Dave alway had the best musicians and bands on his show. Thankful for Paul on that. His years at NBC while doing Late Night will never be duplicated

I'm not even north american, I'm brazilian, but this video always gets me whenever I watch it. So many good and memorable moments, people grew up watching the show. Sadly everything comes to an end sometime. I think about it when I see really old footage of TV shows or artists performing, so many poeple living the time of their lives at the moment, and they're probably all gone by now. It makes me glad I can enjoy the shows I grew up to, the songs, the bands, the movies. It's not just about entertainment, it's about company, moments and memories. Nobody saw it in the past and people will have other things in the future. It's our time to be alive and enjoy it.

Just a plain ole GREAT song; it's a pint-size epic, perfect for the last Letterman show. Barbara Gaines and her crew did a great job here, it's an epochal video sequence that everyone - from those Generations who relied on Dave just as much as the ones just before(who had the great Johnny Carson) for a kind of cosmic reference point - should see every once in a while(like therapy).
