I liked most of the rocky cd... a few not so great tracks... and then on the mellow cd, there was a few great ones but mostly too sad and melancholy. But this is a typical Foo Fighters Album... Deffinately not like the colours and shape album though...
2010-06-18 Soundtrack for the 90's
Once I put this CD on only memories, sad and happy came pouring over me. I have always been a fan of Dave and the Foo's. More so than Nirvana. This collection is a soundtrack of my years during the mid 90's. I agree with every selection. would take a few of the Video's on the DVD and put them on the CD. The Foo's know what their fans want to hear and they represent every time.
2010-06-14 Verrry interesting
This is a great double CD, but I'm just going to come right out and say what no one is talking about: there are some very unusual themes in there, I mean for alternative rock at least.
If you listen to the lyrics, the whole thing sounds like it's being addressed to a deity, and Dave appears to be working very hard at figuring whether he (or maybe it's really the listener) is serving the good one or the bad one. Don't get me wrong, I'm no religious fanatic, but these lyrics reference a lot of Christian themes, and it's consistent. Is Dave Grohl going Christian Rock, or what?
I mean look at what's mentioned in the songs: afterlife, damnation ("say your prayers"), choosing life or death, mortality, damnation again, making one's peace, being saved from ghosts and visions, being shown the way, "every time I wonder I go under" (unquestioning faith), being reborn, being "forever yours (beneath the dirt)", losing all to find "you", a "miracle" ... on and on. I'm not making this stuff up - it's in almost every song. I just thought somebody ought to talk about it. The songs remind me of Rumi poems, where you can't quite tell whether he's talking to his lover or to "the Beloved". -Verrrry interesting.
Uh, oh yeah, and it is truly a great album, what an ambitious project, keep up the good work. I'm serious.
2009-11-21 great
I am a huge fan and this album is a must. Several great songs with a few okay at best songs. Well worth the price for a whole album verus the price for just the hits.
2009-08-01 I really like the songs but...
I really like the songs in this album but it is so protected like a fortress that I can only listen to it using my car stereo and older cd players. I can't even put it in my iPod or Zune. I wish I can listen to it while working out in the gym but no can do. :( Lately, I am trying to find a digital download (mp3) of the album but gave up on it. I've decided to just use and overuse the cd until it dies.
