Paramore dedicate song to Robin Williams

Paramore dedicated a performance of 'Last Hope' to the late comedian, Robin Williams, who committed suicide earlier this week.

Hayley Williams gave the song a long introduction at the Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, Denver:

"There was a point right before we released the new record, actually when we were writing it, that this song sort of spilled out of us. I realized how sad we had been. We had been in this place where we weren't content or fulfilled anymore.

"It was very scary. It was very depressing, then this song happened, and a light came on. It was amazing how much I realized that I was a part of something... that we, the three of us, were a part of something.

"I want you to know before you leave tonight that you, being here tonight, listening to any of your favorite bands, writing songs yourself, writing poems, reading books, any of that: you're a part of something. It goes on way longer than any of us will be alive. You are a part of something. Please know that. This song goes out to Robin Williams. It's called 'Last Hope.'"
