Cold Day In The Sun

This song was written and sung by drummer Taylor Hawkins. Dave plays drums on this song.

Taylor said this song is about an ex-girlfriend.

Yeah this is definatly my favorite song on IYH Acoustic... I just felt that most of the acoustic cd was really bland and not very inspired, this definatly stood out

The cold day in the sun is a reference to the break up someone here mentioned... The fact that she's in the sun is her being in the spot light, probably for ending the relationship, it's cold because the relationship has turned to ice and is unaffectionate.

i think the meaning's pretty straight forward, about breaking up and blamin each other (him, in this case) anyway it is a really feelgood song despite the lyrics and i agree with Childe, he does have a pretty roughish rocker type voice.

It's awesome to hear Taylor singing for once (although Dave Grohl's a legend and noone is better than him.) I never knew Taylor had such a good voice. I agree, In Your Honor is definitely the best album of the year - but it can never compare to the earlier foos albums like the colour and the shape - that one's the best.

I cant wait until Taylor's CD comes out next month. He has such a great voice. You can hear some of his stuff at taylorhawkins.com.

this is probably the best song from the In Your Honor cd

love it

Taylor Hawkins is a great singer

Great song. Great departure. It sound like it is about being strong in fighting for what you believe in, no matter the odds.

Wow!! Ok!! This is my 1st time listening to the song & i honestly thought it was Kurt Cobain singing one of Dave's songs from the Nivana days which they decided to put on the album!! >.< So glad I came on this site.phew!! Would never have guessed he'd this type of voice, im soooo surprised!!! The song does sound a bit like an Eagles song! Nyway, Taylor should sing more often, i like it n_n
