Oh hey, we're doing this now? Can I join in? (If the answer is no, I don't care, I'm joining in anyway.) 1 and 2 are very easy for me, but choosing 3-10 proved to be very difficult.
1) Everlong 2) Times Like These 3) All My Life 4) Monkey Wrench 5) The Pretender 6) Best of You 7) Low 8) My Hero 9) Rope 10) I'll Stick Around
I feel really, REALLY dirty for leaving off DOA, No Way Back and Stacked Actors. Oh, and Bridge Burning!
As for "Something For Nothing", I love it, though I'm not sure where it fits among my favorite Foo singles yet.

I kinda like it. It has that vibe that could take it to number 1 on both Alt and Mainstream rock charts. Not better than "Rope" or "Everlong" though, but still pretty cool.

The difference in spin totals is huge, but the difference in AI is negligible. Interesting.

Probably just a sign of less people listening to the format than when Rope was released. What # was Rope based on AI in its first week? It might be all relative.

There has been a steady decline in AI numbers ever since the iPod + auxiliary jack combo became a thing for drivers anyway. "Rope" was out 3 years ago, so I guess that decline makes sense.

Sonic Highways showed some interesting aspects of the single, particularly getting Rick Nielsen involved with his baritone and the crazy feedback forced on Chris's guitar solo at the end. The "muddy water" pun from the song also fits in nicely with the Chicago story.

So yeah, finally heard this song. Another great recording by the Foo Fighters. Like people have said on here, these guys don't disappoint.
I'd honestly be happy if this took #1 on Alternative for the rest of the year (and for the beginning of next year too).

It needs to A) stop "Take Me To Church" at #2 on alternative, and B) Maintain the integrity of the #1 position on active by preventing 10 more songs from hitting #1 for a week each to end the year.

It will definately go to number 1, but I'm almost sure there will be a better single on that new album.
