My Hero Chords And Strumming, Foo Fighters

Share the My Hero Chords and Strumming:

Did You Know? My Hero is dedicated to ordinary, everyday heroes because Dave Grohl himself never had musical or sports heroes growing up as a child. It's commonly believed to be about Dave Grohl's former bandmate in Nirvana Kurt Cobain and in a 1997 interview Grohl said - "There's definitely an element of Kurt in that song" 


American Songwriter Magazine considers My Hero to be the best Foo Fighters song. 


In 2008 Senator Join McCain used the song without permission during campaign rallies. The Foo Fighters responded - "It's frustrating and infuriating that someone who claims to speak for the American people would repeatedly show such little respect for creativity and intellectual property... The saddest thing about this is that 'My Hero' was written as a celebration of the common man and his extraordinary potential. To have it appropriated without our knowledge and used in a manner that perverts the original sentiment of the lyric just tarnishes the song."

Two Out Of Three Ain’t Bad Chords And Strumming, Meat Loaf

Share the Two Out Of Three Ain't Bad Chords and Strumming:

Did You Know? Two Out Of Three Ain't Bad was released by Meat Loaf in 1977. It was written by Jim Steinman who was complaining that nobody liked his songs to a cast member of his musical Mimi Kennedy so she told him it's because his songs were so complicated. At this point Elvis came on the radio singing 'I Want You, I Need You, I Love You' so Mimi gave it as an example of a simple song. That night Jim went home with the intention of writing a simple song and came up with Two Out Of Three Ain't Bad. 


The Japanese release of the song translates the title as A 66% Seduction!
