DAVID GREENE, HOST:
Good morning. I'm David Greene. A few weeks ago, 10-year-old Nandi Bushell challenged Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl to a drum battle. Grohl conceded. Now it's round two. He kicked it off with a song he wrote just for Nandi.
(SOUNDBITE OF MUSIC)
DAVE GROHL: (Singing) She's got the power, got the scream. Everybody knows Nandi's a queen.
GREENE: In a Facebook video, Nandi watches with her jaw dropped.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
NANDI: He wrote a song about me. We should cover it.
GREENE: It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
