Foo Fighters - Keep The Car Running Lyrics
Every night my dream's the same
Same old city with a different name
They're not coming to take me away!
I don't know why, but I know I can't stay
Yeah
There's a weight that's pressing down
Late at night you can hear the sound
Even the noise you make when you sleep
Can't swim across a river so deep
They know my name 'cause I told it to them
But they don't know where and they don't know when
It's coming
When it's coming
Late at night you can hear the sound
Even the noise you make when you sleep
Can't swim across a river so deep
They know my name 'cause I told it to them
But they don't know where and they don't know when
It's coming
Or when
But it's coming, keep the car running
There's this fear I keep so deep
Knew it's name since before I can speak, yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh
They know my name I know them
Can't swim across a river so deep
They know my name but I don't understand
But they don't know where, they don't know when
It's coming
Or when
Keeps me coming, keep the car running
Keep the car running
Keep the car running

Super sick
dear god it doesn't get better than Dave singing AF. fack!!!!!
just discovered this cover on the new ep. great footage
It lacks the arcade fire oomph. Wish he had a sore throat when he sang this far too smooth for my liking.
I just love it . love you guys so much love to see you in concert 💕
💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
damn that was awesome
This is better than the original.
Dave if it makes you feel any better Win's fucked up the lyrics to this song live too lol. Great cover
Food fighters you have redeemed yourself! ♥️ Live arcade fire and this song.
Crowd is kind of in awe , probably have no idea who Arcade Fire is.... phenomenal cover .. would love to be at this concert and here a great Canadian band !
Better than any song Foo Fighters wrote
2:38 Cate Blanchett on Violin
Now I want to hear Arcade Fire cover a Foo Fighters song. But which one?
Everlong
Wish the crowd wasn't so lame
It felt so right to have a cigarette-smoking accordian player here.
Spot on!
HELL NO.
Yeah, I like this
That's a popping snare.
lmfaooo @ the dude smoking while playing that little accordian!! ;)
that crt noise
Dave is the fucking man. He's what being a rockstar is all about. The respect for the craft, other artist and the fans is unmatched. He sets the bar in every way.
This was awesome
that guy reaction at the end its me rn
where is doctor John the night tripper
FOO FIRE!!!!
wow.....this is GREAT
Excellent!! I love this!
Dave parece ser un tipo ultra solidario. Rescata a muchos artistas que parecen ser olvidados en el tiempo.
Y se mezcla con todo tipo de genero: heavy, hard, punk, etc. Realmente es un músico que todos deben respetar
There is no better band than the Foo Fighters and no better singer than Dave Grohl,
i can think of a lot of bands better than the foo fighters and a lot of singers better, starting with the band that made this song. arcade fire..
I will repeat myself, the Foo Fighters, Queens of the Stone age and Them Crooked Vulchers are the best bands on this Earth.
lol havin conversations with people who dont know music is fun
I don't know what the FUQ y'all haters talking about because this cover is bomb!!!!! Also even in more awe of Davey because I myself too listen to this song every day of my life!!!
An excellent cover of one of my favorite songs. I'm not usually a big fan of Foo Fighters, but they did this song such justice, what a wonderful performance.
Not a big fan of Foo but love when they go more acoustic....great, great cover of a great, great song.
this makes me like him more
This doesn't sound like Foo Fighters at all. What's the accordion doing there? It's still a solid cover, but it doesn't sound like FF.
You answered your own question. "It's still a solid cover." It doesn't sound like Foo Fighters because it's another band's song, and they stayed very true to the source material.
@mrLillipad I meant the instrumentation was unusual for FF.
because they're making Arcade Fire, not FF
for fans
TEMAZOOOOO
el tono de voz de Win Butler es igual de difícil de imitar que el de Thom Yorke, yo lo disculpo a Dave todo lo que quiera por "arruinar" la canción (Para mí no la arruinó)
Hi Timo Ruberg! Hi Foo's family :).. I'm preparing a video about Dave Grohl please keep fingers crossed.. by the time You will be reading this it will be probably finished! Check it out. It includes the best things and messages from our SuperHero which Dave really is!
The Foo Fighters covering Arcade Fire and sounding like Springsteen ... must be in music geek`s heaven
wow ,nice touch for Arcade fire from one of the best bands around( foo fighters) . Seattle, Montreal seam to attract the best in gaming along with music creations . cheers
Great cover! Still enjoy the original more though.
Well they ruined it anyway. It doesn't even come close to the original.
David RF it's a cover of course it's not the original.
Think that's the idea of a cover you moron!
They did a great job
It’s missing the energy of the song but it’s still a good cover.
one of the best placings of oh-ohs in songs. elevates the music. and a worthy cover by a band that im not particularly crazy about.
Some parts of this song NEED to be sung with more people, that's the point of them.
I prefer the Foo's tunage. Sweetawesometastic.
As of 2015, my favourite band (Arcade Fire) has been covered by my second-favourite band (Foo Fighters), which has been covered by my third-favourite band (Florence + the Machine). Cool.
+dragoniguana mine too great great band there songs mature with us
I know this is an old comment but some good news to you: last night they played a song with Florence. So it has come full circle
eddie and the cruisers!
Holy fuck, Dave Grohl gives me more reasons everyday to love him
karaoke
Fan of both bands, The Foos do a great cover here!
dave has got to be the coolest guy
+maggie whiteford Are you an ENFP?
Nice cover.
Is it possible to dislike Dave?
Dave Grohl would accept an invitation to an opening of an envelope. He is now everywhere, Foo OVERDOSE.
in fact, it is not
@Brian Kraus well that takes away your credibility bud.
Brian Kraus you must be a robot, as a human being it would be your duty to like Dave Grohl.
Yes not as good as the original but it was ok!
That middle-aged bastard, Dave Grohl, turned this song into the X Factor. Absolute shite.
I love dave grohl too, but i think arcade fire are fucking hipster.
I had the exact same thinking years ago. But not so long ago I decided to listen to all songs from them and those lyrics man.... Vampire Weekend now that is real hipster stuff.....
You know some times the best way to understand a band music is by going on wiki and check out who these guys really are.
Anyways man i'm not telling you what to do but keep on rockin!
@Edoardo Zanella don't be an idiot arcade fire is one of the best bands out there.
dave grohl should have killed himself after nirvana broke up
pojk_tant The first Foo Fighters album shits all over any Nirvana album.
Haha it's great
Great song no matter who preforms it.
I love this song, arcade fire and foo fighters too. Finally I love this version :)
Yeah, not gonna lie, I was half expecting a trainwreck, but he done did right by the song.
massive A F fan. Love it!
Eh, don't know. Good though.
Arcade Fire is always my favorite! Their cover is amazing though!
Wow that's pretty epic that they covered this song! Dave's the coolest.
SOLID cover, coming from a die hard Arcade Fire fan (:
I love the admiration too.
nice cover!!!!
Usually not the biggest david growl fan, but he definitely came even with arcade fire on this one
Better than expected cover. It didn't even come close to the original, but it did it justice. :)
The Foos covering Arcade Fire. Greeeat!
..... nothing to see here; move along.
That was a lot better than I expected.
THE FOO'S AND ARCADE FIRE!!!! MY TWO FAVORITE BANDS!!!
I'm thinking he replayed Keep the Car Running
Nice. I used to listen to this song everyday too- Maybe I need to get back to that
great cover. I actually prefer it to the original.
I just had the most massive eargasm ever.
It's even better when the band that does the cover is also A FUCKING AMAZING BAND!!!!
That was great
I love the new perspective on this song. What song was he saying he butchered?
Fuck me I'd jizz in Dave Grohl's beard
Surprisingly good cover.
Love arcade fire and are a great band who you need to see live and love this song ..and good job on the cover foo's don't think there's anyone else I would listen to sing this ..Well unless Kurt Cobain was still on the planet :-)
That's what I said!
That awesome moment when your favourite band covers your second favourite band
Nothing says "baller" like an accordion and a cigarette.
Wow, I'm glad I found this! It's a very nice take on the song!
i respect mr grohl as a musician, but they totally ruined the song...
Points to Franz Nicolay.
Dave's definitely got the right voice for this song.
theyre different musicians, but I wouldnt say better
Brilliant!
I love the guy playing the accordion and with a far stogie in his mouth! Great cover.
Arcade Fire + Foo Fighters= The only 2 bands I would keep the car running for :))
Contemporary music needs more accordion!
NO WAY!!!! I HAVE FOUND NEW RESPECT AND APPRECIATION FOR FOO FIGHTERS NOW! this is awesome :)
great musicians pay tribute to (at least in my opinion) even greater musicians! Awesome!!! .D
awesome, but not as cool as the original :)
that accordion part is just... so sweet. And it's making me weep.
been a long week, for me....
Peter Gabriel too =)... best band ever Arcade Fire!
Freaking A right! This is awesome =)
