My son saved me the day he came alive. I was on a downward spiral until the day he was born. My purpose in life changed. I took him to a Foo Fighters gig when he was only 8 year old. Every-time I hear this song I well up thinking of day he came to life and saved me. Foo Fighters forever. RIP Taylor ✌️
This is the only live version I can find and I just wanna tell Dave that for 13yrs Come Alive has been in my soul. I have it tatted on my left shoulder and though the tat has faded some, my love for this song has not. I wore out Echoes Silence Patience and Grace when the album came out, to me it’s their magnum opus and Come Alive its crowning jewel. Thank you Dave, Nate, Taylor, Chris and Pat! I love you all
I like all there songs and I love how this is acoustic I love that rift at the beginning. I would love to go to a foo fighters show or someday as a musician I think it would be awesome to be on stage and perform with my rock hero Dave Grohl.
If I could choose my own setlist, it would have the following songs (in no particular order): In your honor Best of you DOA the pretender breakout enough space learn to fly see you but honestly let it die the last song Come alive Erase/replace The One word forward Free me The deepest blues are back Summer's end Gimme Stitches Resolve All my life Everlong Monkey wrench This is a call Exhausted Winnerbago Wattershed wind up white limo bridge burning long road to ruin rope walk Generator My hero stacked actors times like these i'll stick around -> hey johnny park and as a last song of the show I'd go with; Aurora
The first time I listened to this album, I heard this song and simply looked over it. As I listened to the album more, I heard more things about this song that I liked, and then it hit me how brilliant and amazing this song is. It is the epitome of who the Foo Fighters have become as a group. One word that describes the success and brilliance of this album, and song: progression. Absolutely amazing. I am so glad I didn't not rate this song based only on my first impression.
He wrote this about the birth of his daughter and what it meant to him....One of the greatest love song's I have ever heard.... Wow... Just... Wow...And as a Believer in Christ, I cannot help but hear this as a song As a celebration of an Eternal Love seen in His Resurrection from the grave; a remarkable Easter song indeed.
Such an epic FF song. From the first note it cuts right through. I regret missing the FF concert in South Africa, at the time I couldn't make it. If I was there , I'm the guy in the front with his arms raised putting his soul into the music!! Love you guys
It just amazes me all the incredible music that’s been created over the last 40 years. I don’t see how this period in history can ever be topped! The talent and creative just is incredible!
If you ever lost someone in your life this song can take a hold of you and haunt your soul. It throws me into a spiral of sorrow and emptiness. I love the song and I'm glad I heard it, but there are times that I wish I never had.
im not sure if the crowd realizes that they are staring at a once in a lifetime opportunity to witness the awesome power of this song live...i wish i could of been there...
This song masterfully crescendos from a gentle acoustic ballad to a hard, driving passionate climax! I think it is absolutely brilliant. Sometime I get goose pimples and a rush when I listen to it. It certainly does "Come Alive!"
that's what make dave so special...he doesn't care whether he plays in front of 90000 people or in front of 200 who look like they doesn't even care whether he plays...he's just rockin'
This song is so powerful. I was just in a car wreck yesterday, and have felt like shit since then. This song has been the closest thing to lifting up my spirits. LONG LIVE FOO FIGHTERS!!!!
Ya know, I think true fans are the people that listen every song on all the albums, not the ones that jump around and go crazy to a song. I do love this song though, I was glad they put it in the Warren Miller "Children of the Winter" movie, it went really well with the scene it was in :D
Well, I believe my point is - not all music has this affect on me. My neurons do not fire in such a way in response to all the music I listen to - just certain, very very special compositions. This is one of them. Thank you Dave Grohl and the Foo Fighters. Keep up the great songwriting!
i think song kind of brings you on a journey of the foo's music... i brings from them trying out the soft acoustic stuff to the big balls finale of the foo's that we all know and love! brilliant song!
a foo fighters classic!!! such an emotional song... everytime i hear this song i have tears in my eyes... dave is one of the most talented musicians in our generation... keep rockin'!!!
agreed. the studio version is absolutely magnificent, which made me want to see them perform it live since they never played it whenever i saw them, and now i know why. oh well, plenty of other great live foo tracks.
Yeah - I am listening again (to this video) and I just got another set of chills. Try listening to this on your car stereo at night on the highway - watch the speed though - it's a real lead-foot kinda song!
This is definitely the most underrated foo fighters song of all time. Most amazing song ever
Amen!!!
Soo agreeeeeeere
@@raymondwilley1124 it’s actually a beautiful song, I think is great also in the live version.
Agree
I agree with that 100%. Probably my favorite song ever
My son, Joshua made me come alive. I changed everything for him.
My son saved me the day he came alive. I was on a downward spiral until the day he was born. My purpose in life changed.
I took him to a Foo Fighters gig when he was only 8 year old. Every-time I hear this song I well up thinking of day he came to life and saved me. Foo Fighters forever.
RIP Taylor ✌️
this crowd needs to come alive.
Was at this show and no one had heard the tune before, album wasn't out, just stood in awe more than anything else
True dat
My wife walked down the isle to this song and I bawl my eyes out every time I hear it
Kickass wife man.
Awesome dude
Beautiful.
so fucking badass
This is the only live version I can find and I just wanna tell Dave that for 13yrs Come Alive has been in my soul.

I wore out Echoes Silence Patience and Grace when the album came out, to me it’s their magnum opus and Come Alive its crowning jewel. Thank you Dave, Nate, Taylor, Chris and Pat! I love you all
Their best ever song. Seen them live 5 times and not once have they played this please next time PLEASE
I like all there songs and I love how this is acoustic I love that rift at the beginning. I would love to go to a foo fighters show or someday as a musician I think it would be awesome to be on stage and perform with my rock hero Dave Grohl.
Yah I think that is really hurting the artist and the show casing of the talent they have
If I could choose my own setlist, it would have the following songs (in no particular order):
In your honor
Best of you
DOA
the pretender
breakout
enough space
learn to fly
see you
but honestly
let it die
the last song
Come alive
Erase/replace
The One
word forward
Free me
The deepest blues are back
Summer's end
Gimme Stitches
Resolve
All my life
Everlong
Monkey wrench
This is a call
Exhausted
Winnerbago
Wattershed
wind up
white limo
bridge burning
long road to ruin
rope
walk
Generator
My hero
stacked actors
times like these
i'll stick around -> hey johnny park
and as a last song of the show I'd go with;
Aurora
I would want them to play every song they have past-present.
MrRafting
what about good grief?
unbeknown to the crowd, they were hearing one of the greatest songs ever!!
It’s absolutely beautiful! Made even more poignant now that Taylor has passed. I wish he would come alive 😭😭💔💔
This song only knows max volume in my car. Nothing else. Well, that and 120 mph.
I love this song so much, the build up makes my heart pound and when it hits the climax I just want to go nuts! Fantastic song!
The first time I listened to this album, I heard this song and simply looked over it. As I listened to the album more, I heard more things about this song that I liked, and then it hit me how brilliant and amazing this song is.

Of all the music, this was it
He wrote this about the birth of his daughter and what it meant to him....One of the greatest love song's I have ever heard.... Wow... Just... Wow...And as a Believer in Christ, I cannot help but hear this as a song As a celebration of an Eternal Love seen in His Resurrection from the grave; a remarkable Easter song indeed.
who said that they suck live has no musical talent whatsoever cause they are one of the best bands I've seen live
+Kevin Dostie 100% agree. definitely one of the best bands out there.
i fucking hate monkey wrench though.
this one, "let it die" and "but honestly" are the best tracks on its album. "let it die" is actually the new successor to "everlong"
You nailed it! Read this after 12 yrs?
drsundog ty mate. I do my best in nailing!
Stranger things and pretender too!
arrows
I still can't believe Taylor is dead
Mother’s Day today. While I’m enjoying my sons and grandkids, the absence of the son who passed hurts. This song helps.
Such an epic FF song. From the first note it cuts right through. I regret missing the FF concert in South Africa, at the time I couldn't make it. If I was there , I'm the guy in the front with his arms raised putting his soul into the music!! Love you guys
Outstanding version. Great lyrics by Dave, you know this song comes from a personal experience-full of emotions from his heart. ❤️
It just amazes me all the incredible music that’s been created over the last 40 years. I don’t see how this period in history can ever be topped! The talent and creative just is incredible!
2020 and Dave's musical genius is still unsurpassed by any artist to date.
One of the best songs I have ever heard. This performance is just amazing
That was my first ever contact with the Foos.... Since then I'm in fucking love.... The greatest ❤❤❤
If you ever lost someone in your life this song can take a hold of you and haunt your soul. It throws me into a spiral of sorrow and emptiness. I love the song and I'm glad I heard it, but there are times that I wish I never had.
the way this song builds up till the end... how it gains in intensity..DAMN!! Thats good!!
This is the best live version of any FF song I've ever seen. I loved that song and love it even more now that I've seen this!
im not sure if the crowd realizes that they are staring at a once in a lifetime opportunity to witness the awesome power of this song live...i wish i could of been there...
This song masterfully crescendos from a gentle acoustic ballad to a hard, driving passionate climax! I think it is absolutely brilliant. Sometime I get goose pimples and a rush when I listen to it. It certainly does "Come Alive!"
I LOVE this song. Agree with many of the other comments that this is the emotional zenith of the Foo Fighters.
1. Come Alive 2. My Hero 3. Everlong
And I've been listening to them for years. This song definitely tops them all.
Love you Taylor. 😢 💔
that's what make dave so special...he doesn't care whether he plays in front of 90000 people or in front of 200 who look like they doesn't even care whether he plays...he's just rockin'
How can they possibly be standing still when the foo fighters are playing? one of the best live bands of our time!
That dude in the middle, proved that there is still a lil bit of hope in humanity!
This song is so powerful. I was just in a car wreck yesterday, and have felt like shit since then. This song has been the closest thing to lifting up my spirits. LONG LIVE FOO FIGHTERS!!!!
In my humble opinion, one of the best songs EVER written.
one of my favorite foo fighters songs
the first foo fighters song i ever heard properly, and still my favourite.
I love this song! This is definitely underrated. Its definitely in their top 10 songs for me. Also check out "Come Back" by foo fighters.
What an absolute masterpiece this song is. It’s up there with I should have known and the pretender. It may actually be my favourite song ever
Loved this song for years, I will sing it one day to my first child.

This new F.F. album is excellent.

That's exactly what I think and feel when I listen to this. I feel a rush down my body since it's so powerful!
Yeah - I am listening again (to this video) and I just got another set of chills. Try listening to this on your car stereo at night on the highway - watch the speed though - it's a real lead-foot kinda song!
I'd say this one ties it with me. Love them both.
this is a ridiculously under-rated song...
Perfectly described the song! Same thing happens to me every time I listen to this
