Last night big winners were british band The Foo Fighters’ “Wasting Light” collected the rock album Grammy Award. Here is Dave Grohl statement yesterday at the Grammy Awards 2012

“To me, this award means a lot because it shows the human element of making music is what’s most important—singing into a microphone, learning to play an instrument, and learning to do your craft, that’s the most important thing for people to do. It’s not about being perfect, it’s not about sounding absolutely correct, it’s not about what goes on in the computer, it’s about what goes on in here (points at his heart), and it’s about what goes on in here (points at his head).”

Beautiful, We like it a Lot, Press play below for a great performance
