Cheer Up, Boys (Your Make Up Is Running)
"Cheer Up, Boys (Your Make Up Is Running)" is the third single released from the Foo Fighters' 2007 album Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace. The single was released as a digital-only release in the UK via iTunes.[1] No physical retail singles were released however promotional singles were released for radio air play.[2] The b-side is a cover of Paul McCartney & Wings' "Band on the Run", which was previously released on Radio 1 Established 1967.[3]
Reception
Dave Grohl commented on the song, saying "For this song, it was a working title that stuck, because that was a song that we had demoed and it sounded like this really bright, poppy, late '80s REM song that would have been off their 'Green' or something like that."[4] Allmusic editor Stephen Thomas Erlewine says the song has a riff as nimble as those on Foo Fighters' debut album.[5]
