A "cloudspotter" is someone who is constantly looking for the storm clouds, even when it's sunny. Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl describes this song as, "an anthem for the pessimist." He explained to OK magazine. "I'm the type of person that says, 'OK, let's figure this out,' if I'm presented with a problem. A cloudspotter is somebody who finds the conflict or difficulty in everything and has no hope. It's kind of a twisted love song for someone with this pessimistic, negative outlook on everything."
