The fusion of two genres has always managed to grab people’s attention. The fusion of rap and rock was mastered by Linkin Park, Avril Lavigne gave the world pop-punk, and the list can go on and on. The attraction this theme has on people has been proven as many rock and roll songs became a hit and were considered to be in the popular music genre. Yet, we can never get enough and get excited at every chance a genre could be mixed with rock music.
Foo Fighters’ Dave Grohl must share the same point of view, and he gives a glimpse of what rockstars might think of other genres and why they would love them. It might also be difficult for rockstars to admit they like the pop genre or any other genre for what it’s worth, but Dave Grohl openly confessed that he loves a song by one of the most feminine bands of all time: the Spice Girls.
The Spice Girls came and went like a storm in the music industry, and they will surely be remembered forever. They gave off the cliché feminine energy at every chance and used concepts that might even be considered cheesy. Yet, the group managed this cheesiness very well. They performed onstage like proper pop stars and their songs have been on the lips of so many people around the world.
Even though they are known to be the iconic creators of the song ‘Wannabe,’ Dave Grohl’s obsession gives the world a different side of the group. Foo Fighter’s Dave Grohl is obsessed with ‘Two Become One,’ a song that embodies the ’90s spirit and makes you think of all the thin eyebrows, extremely pale makeup, overly close headshots, and music videos that were strengthened by the power of premature CGI.
Here is Dave’s confession:
“I couldn’t get Spice Girls’ ‘Two Become One’ out of my head, and it’s not even a dance song, it’s just this slow love shit. Lord, I love it. I don’t know what to do! In Nirvana, Krist Novoselic joked that he was going to call his autobiography ‘What The Hell Was I Thinking?’ Now I know what he means. Do I need a shrink?”
Dave Grohl is known for his sincere and funny personality in interviews and his talent for making music, being attracted to many instruments. His creativity is hard to question, and he has been living his life with music since he was the drummer of Nirvana. For Dave Grohl to come out and say that he has an obsession with a Spice Girls song shows that you can find love and inspiration everywhere and in every part of life.
