And, while rare, anyone who picks up my guitar and plays it...AND sings...absolutely love it and lets just say they are welcome back anytime. This performance is amazing and sitting here dumfounded, God with me, I needed to hear it today. 'Under Pressure" by Queen , an all time favorite. And, unquestionably, that one is one TH blew out of the park on in his final days. Thinking of your whole fam. Grateful-Thank you-Peace to you.

@@wiredforstereo Exactly. He was on his way. I've played with some heavy hitters, some people you would know, and everyone you see in the background during a rock show or any show has their own thing going. Yes, there are some that are ok just being a backup player, but many have their own visions. It's the difference between being an employee and being a business owner. You can work for someone else's dream or you can realize your own dreams. Of course not everyone has what it takes or has the charm to be liked, but that doesn't mean most aren't trying. Not everyone can be in the spotlight. If everyone realized their dreams, there would be no spectators buying the tickets.

Learning to talk again Can't you see I've waited long enough? Where do I begin? Do you remember the days We built these paper mountains Then sat and watched them burn? I think I found my place Can't you feel it growing stronger? Little conquerors Learning to walk again I believe I've waited long enough Where do I begin? Learning to talk again I believe I've waited long enough Where do I begin? Now For the very first time Don't you pay no mind? Set me free again To keep alive a moment at a time But still inside a whisper to a riot To sacrifice but knowing to survive The first to climb another state of mind I'm on my knees, I'm praying for a sign Forever, whenever I never wanna die I never wanna die I never wanna die I'm on my knees I never wanna die I'm dancing on my grave I'm running through the fire Forever, whenever I never wanna die I never wanna leave I'll never say goodbye Forever, whenever Forever, whenever Learning to walk again I believe I've waited long enough Where do I begin?

I'm finished making sense Done pleading ignorance That whole defense Spinning infinity, boy The wheel is spinning me It's never-ending, never-ending Same old story What if I say I'm not like the others? What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? You're the pretender What if I say I will never surrender? What if I say I'm not like the others?

What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? You're the pretender What if I say that I'll never surrender? I'm the voice inside your head You refuse to hear I'm the face that you have to face Mirrored in your stare I'm what's left, I'm what's right I'm the enemy I'm the hand that will take you down Bring you to your knees So who are you? Yeah, who are you? Yeah, who are you? Yeah, who are you? Keep you in the dark You know they all pretend What if I say I'm not like the others? What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?

He's vocals are actually horrible. :) But when Kurt died he just did not had any other option than sing for himself.

Darude Sandstorm You're a goon, Dave's vocals are raw and real. Full of emotion, the way a rock musician should sound.

Best performance by any musician in front one of the smallest crowd. Both the songs are awsome but walk helps me to keep me alive a moment at a time. The anger in Grohl's voice and the sadness of the chord D and Dmin...Epic!

Absolutely amazing! The chorus is pretender sounded a little weird/different but I take it that has to do with it being an acoustic version. It is amazing that he can tune and play a guitar with a few seconds of thinking over the song.

In the studio version taylor screams the vocals for the chorus, Dave sings the harmony but it's turned down more.
