Directed by Marc Klasfeld , this is often the version associated with the "Official HD Video". It features the band performing under the Mojave River Bridge (also known as the Rainbow Bridge) in Victorville, CA. In the video, various people—including fans selected through the band's website—throw personal items like instruments and appliances off the bridge behind the band.
The band produced three distinct official music videos for the song, each with a different aesthetic:
"Times Like These" is one of the most iconic songs by the Foo Fighters, released as the second single from their 2002 album One by One . Written by Dave Grohl during a period of uncertainty for the band, the song serves as a powerful anthem of hope, resilience, and learning to "love again".
Grohl has described the lyrics as being about "hope and love and compassion". The line "I'm a new day rising" is a direct homage to the album New Day Rising by Hüsker Dü , one of Grohl's favorite bands.
Interestingly, Grohl accidentally recruited producer Nick Raskulinecz for the album after calling the wrong "Nick" in his phone contacts; he had intended to reach Queens of the Stone Age bassist Nick Oliveri.
Directed by Liam Lynch , this version features the band playing against kaleidoscopic, brightly colored backgrounds. It ends with a "reveal" showing the band was performing against a greenscreen in a studio.
