My Hero
“My Hero” is the third single from Foo Fighters. Which is on their second studio album entitled The Color and the Shape. The song was released as a single in 1998. According to Dave Grohl, the song is dedicated to everyday heroes, as he never had heroes on TV or in sports while growing up.
In addition, many people think that the song is about Grohl’s close friend and former Nirvana band-mate Kurt Cobain. After that, Grohl himself showed disapproval of this interpretation in a 1999 interview on The Howard Stern Show.
