This song... It's emotional for me. My dad was a massive Foo Fighters fan. Had all their albums, got me hooked on Foo Fighters, even managed to get my mum to be a FF fan even though she used to hate rock. Dad got early onset dementia in his early 40s, and ended up in a nursing home where me, my mum, and my sister (who was barely 6 years old when dad was diagnosed) used to visit him. One day, he is taken ill. It's pneumonia. A few days later he dies aged 47. A few days after that, this song is released, with the video being set in a nursing home, with the patients rebelling against the monotony of their lives and acting young one last time. A few days after the funeral, "Sky Is A Neighbourhood" is released I was actually reminded of this song just now when I had to fix a problem with my laptop and needed to use the "Run" function to fuck around in regedit. Decided to give the song a listen again and see if I can get through Run without crying. I can't. But they're happy tears. This song is one my dad would have loved, as is the video. He'd been a rebel his entire life, before he settled down and had me he'd been a homeless punk. Even after accepting a normal life he still never took shit from anyone and never accepted "the man" telling him what he could and couldn't do. To me, Run encapsulates the man he was, and Sky Is A Neighbourhood was perfect for a send off. Thank you for the amazing music, Foo Fighters. Thank you
I'm sorry to hear my friend. Stay strong. He's perfect running around probably jamming this song every time you play it. I too lost a loved one...my 10 month old daughter back last February.(in my pic) She gives me the strength to keep going and the love to care for all. Ive lost a lot since her passing. License, car, job and still trying to hold onto the house but I stay strong for her. Life tries to knock us down. No matter what, get back up and shove it back at it. One day we'll all run together in a perfect life.
I have this set as my alarm clock it's the PERFECT way to wake up every morning. It starts with a soft "wake uuuuup" the way mom used to. Then a little inspiration "run for your life with me" like "ok good idea" Followed by screaming which really gets you out of bed the way mom used to.
It's funny, I loved My Hero the first time I'd heard it, and a handful of other songs along the way. It wasn't until the past few years that I got REALLY into the Foo and have been realizing what I missed the past 20 odd years by not getting into them more sooner.
(Lyrics) Wake up Run for your life with me Wake up Run for your life with me In another perfect life In another perfect light We run We run We run [Verse 1] The rats are on parade Another mad charade What you gonna do? The hounds are on the chase Everything's erased What you gonna do? I need some room to breathe You can stay asleep If you wanted to They say that's nothing's free You can run with me If you wanted to Yeah you can run with me If you wanted to [Chorus] Before the time runs out There's somewhere to run Wake up Run for your life with me Wake up Run for your life with me In another perfect life In another perfect light We run We run We run Run! [Verse 2] We are the nation's stakes If everything's erased What you gonna' do? I need some room to breathe You can run with me If you wanted to Yeah you can run with me If you wanted to [Chorus] Before the time runs out There's somewhere to run Wake up Run for your life with me Wake up Run for your life with me In another perfect life In another perfect light We run We run We run Run! [Chorus] Wake up Run for your life with me Wake up Run for your life with me In another perfect life In another perfect light We run We run We run Run!
Foo Fighters remains one of my top fave bands, growing up a little girl I just rocked out to their stuff continuously and I still don't get fed up of it to this day.
Saw Foo fighter in Brisbane and they Literally burst out with RUN for their first song, couldn't have been not be happier, Brisbane 2018. What a little ripper.
Clever Name in Construction , there is also another song they unveiled kinda lol.. keep your pretty promise to yourself it's a 1 minute teaser like run was, please youtube it....
Clever Name in Construction , also, in a interview I listen to. Dave didn't give a time frame but he acted like he wanted it to be more of a surprise kind of like with the song run, but here you go here's the album....
I was never the kind of person to sing along to the radio. But when this came out for the first time, god. every time after that when it would come on the radio I just had to sing along
This song just speaks to me on so many levels...then again all Foo songs do but the day I heard this one for the first time I was just floored. Nothing else like it out there!
I can't believe I hadn't found this version sooner. the music video would actually interrupt the music and had a long,nearly silent sketch at the beginning. (which was...ok but not something I would want to see every time)
Every now and then refrain "wake up run for your life with me" pops in to my head and i need to instantly especially when he sings it more urgently towards the end of the song
The more I listen, the more I love this song I didn't think you guys could get any better, but then you go and make this... When i feel sad, i listen to this song. My medicine.
I KNOW RIGHT!?? I wanna give the guy or gal a huge pat in the back for that simply awesome logo! I dare say it's more beautiful than the nike or addidas logos.
kylenoah92 Destiny Videos Anually You're right, but I assume people think this way because of the political atmosphere. I say let's forget about it so we can listen to this sweet track.
You fucking kidding? Dave was in scream and nirvana, chris was in no use for a name, nate was in sunny day real estate and PAT WAS A FUCKING GERM! The music isn't punk but the guys sure as shit are.
Im not a huge fan of FF, but always that i listen any song of them.....they give me the feeling of freedom in the lyrics, and they always makes me stop and listen and give a sense to all the things in my life......because of that...this band is more bigger in all aspects. Grohl you make it!
This is freakin' awesome. Also, the fact that the band hooked up with pop producer Greg Kurstin for their forthcoming album, CONCRETE AND GOLD, is quite a surprise. I don't have one single problem with the Foo Fighters willing to try something new. ROCK ON!! ✌️
¡Gracias mis fufos del alma! Sus canciones me ayudan muchísimo en momentos difíciles como éstos, ¡Que angustia, estar a la deriva es tenaz! Les acepto el consejo ¡Run! Desde lo profundo del alma: ¡GRACIAS! ❤️💫

Thank you for the amazing music, Foo Fighters. Thank you
Thank you for sharing. Your dad would've definitely rocked to this song. May he Rest in Piece. 🙏
What a sad yet beautiful story, your dad is definitely watching over you whilst still listening to the Foo Fighters ❤️❤️
Sincere thanks for sharing your story.

I could listen to Dave Ghrol say “Wake up, run for your life with me,” for the rest of my life.

Exactly my guy
Me tooooo
Yes girl👌😎❤️

Yeah but for someone like me it doesn't help ^^ I don't wake up from this 😅 real deep sleep I think
Nice
Pass the audio file for that alarm sound
i do it too hahaha
The Foo Fighters have been the soundtrack to my life for the last 20+ years. I can't live without them. This is another Awesome song!
Johnny Boskey Feel the same
I feel you bro
It's funny, I loved My Hero the first time I'd heard it, and a handful of other songs along the way. It wasn't until the past few years that I got REALLY into the Foo and have been realizing what I missed the past 20 odd years by not getting into them more sooner.
FUCKING AGREE IN ALL .
Yep!
Over my expectations. Signature sound. Heavy, melodic, rich.
Can't wait to see live.
dimstrix I saw them Thursday and they opened with this. I wasn't quite sold on Concrete on Gold, but after the show, it's decidedly awesome.
The show was really cool wasn't it?!
This show rocked!!!! Saw them in 2000 and fell in love. Exceeded my expectations this last time. FF are the only songs in my rotation right now.
The best live!!!...I tell you no lies!!
This song live is a whole different experience!
So strange - I felt the urge to listen to this last night! And woke up to the news about Taylor! So sad! RIP
Hello, How are you doing today? Nice meeting you here.
(Lyrics)
Wake up
Run for your life with me
Wake up
Run for your life with me
In another perfect life
In another perfect light
We run
We run
We run
[Verse 1]
The rats are on parade
Another mad charade
What you gonna do?
The hounds are on the chase
Everything's erased
What you gonna do?
I need some room to breathe
You can stay asleep
If you wanted to
They say that's nothing's free
You can run with me
If you wanted to
Yeah you can run with me
If you wanted to
[Chorus]
Before the time runs out
There's somewhere to run
Wake up
Run for your life with me
Wake up
Run for your life with me
In another perfect life
In another perfect light
We run
We run
We run
Run!
[Verse 2]
We are the nation's stakes
If everything's erased
What you gonna' do?
I need some room to breathe
You can run with me
If you wanted to
Yeah you can run with me
If you wanted to
[Chorus]
Before the time runs out
There's somewhere to run
Wake up
Run for your life with me
Wake up
Run for your life with me
In another perfect life
In another perfect light
We run
We run
We run
Run!
[Chorus]
Wake up
Run for your life with me
Wake up
Run for your life with me
In another perfect life
In another perfect light
We run
We run
We run
Run!
Narin Chaiwut's thank you for the lyrics! 💚
Thanks dude
Yes, we all know the fucking lyrics. Thanks for nothing.
diamond02 Fuck You Too
I Hate You
this is the only song by the Foo's that I've been playing since Taylor died. It just hits differently now for some reason.
Played this version for the first time today. It certainly does.
Taylor was a very talented person for sure!
I know right 😔💔
Taylor died?! When?! 🥺
Respect
Just too good WE WANT MORE!!!!
Hell yeah
Red Eagle good combination 👍
Daniel // Wolfreak agree, but RHCP get pretty annoying after some minutes/hours of listening... Foo Fighters don't do it. Sincerely
I think I'm in love with this song.
That bassline, that rhythm.
I LOVE IT!. Come back to South America, we need the Foo's!
Matiyemar yes please... And this time come to Uruguay 🤘
Nunca fueron a Uruguay? Que cagada chabon
Matiyemar quatro shows no Brasil confirmados com queens of the stone age, Argentina também confirmado.
Matiyema
South America Memes
this might be one of their best songs in a long long time!!!
I don't know what's so emotional and motivational about the sentence "we run" but it almost got me to tears
The scream and the buildup of the whole song to release all the tension with that sick guitar solo at 4:08 is absolutely chilling to me
This song saved my life countless times. Thank you FF.
has been a harsh year for you bro, this song came out in 2017
❤❤
Hope you're still running with us 💪🏿💪🏿
This song is a masterpiece. It's amazing how a band and a producer can take a plain song and elevate it to this.
Best Foo Fighters song in years.
When i feel sad, i listen to this song. My medicine.
They can't even pretend to be bad - they're so damn good ❤️❤️
Best song they ever did, won’t ever be topped
Can't wait to be in the middle of a stadium to sing along this song. Please come back to Argentina!
Lorna Gomez Ponce confirmado! No Brasil também :)
matheus santos lima Yo hablo español de México. pero pienso que todavía podemos comunicar jaja. las idiomas no son tan diferentes.
este tema fue una fiesta, la parte que mas disfrute de recital
After a hard days work and a nice cold beer. This really hits the spot.🤘
Fucking best comment!!
I gave up on Foo Fighters a few albums ago so I just discovered this song recently. This song is great!
Such a great song. It really comes to life when it's played loud!
Danny Philipsen ino the louder the better especially for this one
the only thing i have to say is...o shit this music is so dam good man
Hearing this song being played at Wrigley Stadium in Chicago was a highlight. Their musicianship is really something to be admired.
These band has been around so long and even though their music and style is changing they're still so fucking good.
Nadia , so true :)
Foo Fighters remains one of my top fave bands, growing up a little girl I just rocked out to their stuff continuously and I still don't get fed up of it to this day.
Yes! Best Rock Song @ Grammys! Well done Foo Fighters!!!!
I didn't think you guys could get any better, but then you go and make this...
April Bird nah foo fighters is always going wild
I've tried for 22 years to truly invest in Foo Fighters, because i love Dave as a musician, i think hes a gnarly dude.
This song is fucking bad ass.
When i feel sad, i listen to this song. My medicine.
How about using a MAM song as mecidine and during midnight? 😂😂
This was their most AOR Classic Rock-sounding album. Great stuff.
and yet another MASTERPIECE! Can't stop listening!
Walk.
Run.
Sprint?
I LOVE IT!. Come back to South America, we need the Foo's!
Best Foo Fighters song in years.
Thank you For Fighters for keeping Rock n Roll relevant. One of the all time greats !
Over my expectations. Signature sound. Heavy, melodic, rich.
Can't wait to see live.
Best Foo Fighters song in years.
What a banger
Saw Foo fighter in Brisbane and they Literally burst out with RUN for their first song, couldn't have been not be happier, Brisbane 2018. What a little ripper.
It really grows on your from being amazing to out of this world
When I first heard this on the radio I thought he was saying "We were." In any case, Dave's lyrical material is amazing.
I can't wait for this album
It's out

Was it worth it?
They didn’t play this last week and I was sad. It was amazing when they opened with this song 4 years ago. Oh, what a time.
1st time I listened to this I was like, "Eh, it's ok"
Now I absolutely love this track!!
Best Foo Fighters song EVER!
Remember when they gave us a little snippet when they played "This is a Call" live earlier this year. It was a little peak to this beautiful song
Omg!! Sincerely musical harmony❤❤❤
Such an epic tune! Always listen to this at work on Radio X in the morning! WE RUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNN!!!!!!
The simplest riff I have ever heard in any rock song yet still intense.
The intro is the best one :)
Cultural icon, bad ass drummer, all round awesome dude. This guy is my hero! X
Saw them in Melbourne, unforgettable show, so much energy, the most humble blokes, this was the PERFECT opening song 🤘🤘🤘
I listen to this song on a regular basis.
Because that intro. ♥
Dude this song is growing on me. I don't think bands still produce songs with screaming in 2017, so F YEAH FOO FIGHTERS.
this is the "pa-tum-pa tum" that i like! wow is... no words
This is my all time favorite band and my all time favorite song. THE FOO FIGHTERS ARE THE BESSSST!!!!!!!!
They just released this, and they've recently played "The Sky is a Neighborhood" live. An album CAN'T be too far away!!
Clever Name in Construction , there is also another song they unveiled kinda lol..
keep your pretty promise to yourself
it's a 1 minute teaser like run was, please youtube it....
Clever Name in Construction , also, in a interview I listen to. Dave didn't give a time frame but he acted like he wanted it to be more of a surprise kind of like with the song run, but here you go here's the album....
how can people not like this?
EVERYONE LOVES FOO FIGHTERS
The best band in the world
I was never the kind of person to sing along to the radio. But when this came out for the first time, god. every time after that when it would come on the radio I just had to sing along
Man, I wonder if they recorded this at Studio 606 because the drums SOUND FUCKING AMAZING
Avec toutes ces années, on le sent. Cette transition. J'adore.
Fantastic song as always. Thanks for making music, Foo Fighters
This song just speaks to me on so many levels...then again all Foo songs do but the day I heard this one for the first time I was just floored. Nothing else like it out there!
Got distracted by the visuals in the video version. I love this one so I can focus on the music. Great job as usual from the Foos!
Greg Wren , I couldn't have said it better myself :)
Greg Wren yea, the whole bad grandpa thing didn't really work for me
No more grandma tiddies
I can't believe I hadn't found this version sooner. the music video would actually interrupt the music and had a long,nearly silent sketch at the beginning. (which was...ok but not something I would want to see every time)
Rip brother.. taken far too soon.. such an inspiration. Rest well.
Now, this is, indescribable.
20 years in and they drop their heaviest song to date. Only the Foos man. This kicks ass!
Tommy Messina White limo is their heaviest.
The Colour and the Shape is the hardest
Thanks for keeping Rock alive!
Every now and then refrain "wake up run for your life with me" pops in to my head and i need to instantly especially when he sings it more urgently towards the end of the song
this.. is such.. a good.. song...
"Runnig" from Costa Rica to Poland to the Open' er festival....can't wait to mosh with this song !!!!!
Sempre surpreendente essa banda!!!!
Excellent song right here
The riff is so catchy.
The intro is very emotional. Don’t know why
Crazy how this is growing on me. It feels like I've been listening to it for years.
I'm going out for a walk.
*listens to this song*
FUCK IT I'M GOING FOR A RUN!
RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNN
MrDragoon334 The only reason I would ever run. Ever... Unless I was being chased by zombies if course.
The best song Foo Fighters have made in well over ten years
Thank You
Best reggaeton song ever
this song is soooo good
The more I listen, the more I love this song
I didn't think you guys could get any better, but then you go and make this...
When i feel sad, i listen to this song. My medicine.
dave..the funny ..hairy screamin rock wolffff!!...i will run with you brother...always loved the foos see you next june m8
R.I.P. Taylor Hawkins we love and miss you man!
Foo Fighters vi amo
Woah new foo fighters logo
I KNOW RIGHT!?? I wanna give the guy or gal a huge pat in the back for that simply awesome logo! I dare say it's more beautiful than the nike or addidas logos.
Love the rad new logo!
It looks like an "equality" symbol tilted on its side with a line through it.
Elver Fossiltoe no it looks like two f's why do people make everything seem like some political statement about equality
kylenoah92 Destiny Videos Anually
You're right, but I assume people think this way because of the political atmosphere.
I say let's forget about it so we can listen to this sweet track.
Best FF song since All My Life in my humble opinion. Dave did an awesome job
Continuing Everlong with everyone joining in after they shut you down at Napa is the most punk rock thing ever. Stick it to the man!
William Gibson except foo fighters arent a punk band
Judd Flora That's true, they are but a line of code in the Matrix. As are we.
William Gibson I wouldn't consider it punk rock, but it was a memorable moment
They're inspired by alot of punk bands
You fucking kidding? Dave was in scream and nirvana, chris was in no use for a name, nate was in sunny day real estate and PAT WAS A FUCKING GERM! The music isn't punk but the guys sure as shit are.
Im not a huge fan of FF, but always that i listen any song of them.....they give me the feeling of freedom in the lyrics, and they always makes me stop and listen and give a sense to all the things in my life......because of that...this band is more bigger in all aspects. Grohl you make it!
¡Estupenda canción! ♡
Rest in POWER Taylor, love you
I love foo fighters. I cant imagine Dave doing something wrong. The Group is just perfect. loud!
This is freakin' awesome. Also, the fact that the band hooked up with pop producer Greg Kurstin for their forthcoming album, CONCRETE AND GOLD, is quite a surprise. I don't have one single problem with the Foo Fighters willing to try something new. ROCK ON!! ✌️
¡Gracias mis fufos del alma!
Sus canciones me ayudan muchísimo en momentos difíciles como éstos, ¡Que angustia, estar a la deriva es tenaz!
Les acepto el consejo ¡Run!
Desde lo profundo del alma: ¡GRACIAS! ❤️💫
The bass line, crazy! FF I will run with you 👍 🏃 Love this guys, my favorites of all time.
Damn, it gets sooooooo good and awesome every time you listen to it, this is my 17 time hearing it and its beyond awesomeness
Love how the Foos have songs that aren't singles that are still good.
Ooooh me likey the new Foo Fighters!
foo fighters for life.👍👍👍👍
Congrats for the grammy. Well deserved. 👏🏻👌🏻🔥😍
It's different but you know off the bat it's still the Foo Fighters
heavy af 🤘
