Track Description
Available in:
"The Sky Is a Neighborhood" is a song by American rock band Foo Fighters. It was released as the second single from their ninth album Concrete and Gold on August 23, 2017. As of November 2017, the song had peaked at number 1 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Songs chart and 7 on the Alternative Songs chart.

The song was one of the last written and recorded for the band's ninth studio album, Concrete and Gold, being written during a two-week break the band went on after feeling they had already completed the album. Frontman Dave Grohl, inspired by the night sky in Hawaii, wrote what would become "The Sky Is a Neighborhood", and recorded the track over the course of a single afternoon. The song was first publicly premiered at a live acoustic show by Grohl and drummer Taylor Hawkins in May 2017, at The Fillmore in San Francisco. The full band first performed the song live at a show in Iceland the following month. The final studio version was released as the album's second single on August 23, 2017.

The name and phrase "The Sky Is a Neighborhood" originated from Grohl's lifelong hobby of stargazing and thinking about the planet's Earth's place in the universe, with him explaining "One night I was lying out looking up at stars. Just imagining all of these stars as places that have life on them as well, and I decided that the sky is a neighborhood, that we need to keep our s— together in order to survive in this universe full of life." The lyrics were also inspired by the video "The Most Astounding Fact" by astrophysicist Neil DeGrasse Tyson.
