"For All the Cows" (1995) is the third major single released by the Foo Fighters from their self-titled debut album Foo Fighters. The band had discussed the creation of a music video for this single which would feature the band dressing up in cow costumes, but no video was made. Grohl has told audiences during live shows that this is his mother's favorite Foo Fighters song.

A live version of the song, performed at the Melkweg in Amsterdam (29 February 2000) appears on the One by One "special edition bonus disc."
