Rock band the Foo fighters, who are riding on the success of the recent album ‘Medicine at Midnight’, recently performed a cover of Bee Gees’ 1976 Billboard Hot 100 hit ‘You Should Be Dancing’ on BBC Radio 2. The band added a touch of rock to the classic song but tried to keep it pretty close to the original. 

“Let me tell you: I have never, ever in my life sung like that, but it was the easiest song I have ever sung in my entire life!. I had no idea my voice could… I sang the song, and it was like six minutes and I was done. I should have been singing like this for the last 25 years!” frontman Dave Grohl told the show. 

The cover was also shared by the band on Twitter and received a thumbs up from the netizens. 

Meanwhile, after the impromptu song session on the show, Grohl spoke to host Jo Whiley about how the cover came about. He said that one of the band members asked him if he had seen the recent Bee Gees documentary, ‘The Bee Gees: How Can You Mend a Broken Heart.’

“I was like the last person on Earth — the only person — that hadn’t seen it. So I was just like, ‘Why don’t we do a Bee Gees song?’. Someone was like, ‘How do you want to do it?’ And I said, ‘Well, let’s do it like the Bee Gees,'” he said.
