The story behind the song

"Best of You" was inspired by Dave Grohl's experiences on the campaign trail, leading him to write a song about breaking free from limitations. It's a song of resistance, about refusing to be exploited by something larger than yourself, or even by someone you love. While many interpret it as a love song, its meaning is intended to be more universal: a fight in the face of adversity. The focus is on a strong, raw performance, designed for Grohl to "scream the whole way through." At its heart, it's an anthem for standing your ground against overwhelming forces.
