Ahead of his performance the rocker said: "Hey this is Dave Grohl from the Foo Fighters. I hope everyone is staying healthy. If you love someone let them know. If you're thankful for someone, tell them."
He added: "I'd like to dedicate this song to everyone out there on the frontlines that are doing their best to get us through all of this..."
After his performance, the former Nirvana drummer remarked: "AND - if you sing that last chorus every time you wash your hands, I think you'll be in good shape".
Meanwhile, Billie Eilish performed a stripped-back version of her Bad Guy single with her brother Finneas from LA.
