"Big Me" is the fifth single, released in 1996, by the Foo Fighters from their self-titled debut album Foo Fighters. Its music video parodies Mentos advertisements, turning them into commercials for "Footos". This led to many fans throwing Mentos at the band whenever they played the song live. For an extended period of time, the band did not play the song live due to this, as Grohl cited: "We did stop playing that song for a while because, honestly, it's like being stoned. Those little … things are like pebbles – they hurt". Although it never charted on the Billboard Hot 100, the song became a modest hit on pop radio during the spring of 1996. After Weezer covered this song often during the 2005 Foozer tour, the band brought it back into their live lineup. It was played during the encore of their current Echoes tour. An acoustic version of the song was released on the band's 2006 live CD, "Skin and Bones." This version featured Dave singing the song with Petra Haden. A muzak version of the song was featured in the Grohl-directed video for their song "Monkey Wrench". "Big Me" was nominated for 5 VMAs in 1996, winning only "Best Group Video". The video, which parodies the Mentos ad campaign, was filmed on location in Sydney, Australia.
