Dave Grohl Says Foo Fighters ‘Big Me’ Started Out As A Nirvana Song

The Foo Fighters’ 1995 single ‘Big Me’ originally started out as a Nirvana song.

The Foos played in Seattle this week where Grohl told the crowd, “This song was recorded at the very last session Nirvana ever had. This one goes out to Krist (Novoselic of Nirvana). He is here somewhere.”

The final Nirvana sessions took place near Seattle in January 1994.

Grohl and Novoselic booked the studio to try out a few things for the first time since the ‘In Utero’ sessions a year earlier.

‘Big Me’ and ‘Exhausted’ were both recorded at the session, and both ended up on the first Foo Fighters album.
