Many fans know that Veruca Salt’s Louise Post was the inspiration for Foo Fighters’ “Everlong,” but Post herself has revealed just how MUCH a part she played.
Post shared on Instagram that she sang backup vocals for the song after Dave Grohl called her up at 2.am. and asked. Post also wrote, “While I was at it, I wrote a harmony for the chorus and sang that too. The whispered section of this song was originally the dream I was having when the phone rang. It was a dream about us. He later removed it and replaced with his own whispers, one which was a love letter to me.”

Post dated Grohl after his divorce from his first wife.
Have you ever had a song written for you? Would you want Louise Post to reveal more of her time with Dave Grohl?
