Song of The Month!
The Pretender
by Foo Fighters
I know I haven't posted anything else this month, so I apologize for that. I'll officially be done with school this year in three days, which means I'll be back to making scheduled posts after that. Since next month will be Christmas, I'll try to post as often as possible, but I'm not sure how busy I'll be and therefore I'm not sure how much I'll be able to post.
In any case, I decided to put The Pretender as the Song of The Month for several reasons. The first simply being that it's by Foo Fighters. They are an amazing band, which I've been a fan of since I was young because my mother always loved them, so I figured it was about time I put up something about them. Another reason I love the band is because when it came to Dave Grohl it sort of became a way to see how he dealt with everything after Nirvana and how he's grown and changed.
I chose The Pretender specifically because I remember quite vividly when it first came out. My mother and I watched the music video on MTV, watching as everything exploded and just came to life, red splattering everywhere. I don't really know why that is something I remember, but I always loved this video for some reason. It was a relevant song then and it's a relevant song now, so I figured why not?
Besides, The Pretender is no. 1 on Kerrang!'s 101 Most Definitive Party Classics, so it's only appropriate to share it with more people. I think everyone should hear this song at least once in their lives, so if you haven't already, you should listen to this great song!
