The greatest thing about rhcp is that i can always relate thier songs to my life.. i heard Hey when i was on the verge of breaking up with my girlfriend and it was exactly what i need to hear... I LoVE THEM!!!
the young people prob don't get it, like Anthony said, because they haven't had their share of broken pieces yet. I'm gonna turn 20 and think it's fair to say I've been through things I wish no one ever has to and it makes me feel this song so deeply it just tears me up. It's one of those songs that makes you connect with a band and cry because of the memories. <3
well it does these days dudes like a 16 year old wold like RHCP most of them like lil wayne or some other dickhead well not me, im fucking more original thatn those assholes RHCP for 4 the whole damn life yay!!!
Who gives a shit how old you are? Age has nothing to do with enjoying good or bad music. It's about what you identify with that matters. Think for yourself people. FUCK everyone else.
Anthony didn't say that you have to be a verterano to enjoy the song, he said he thinks that the young kids won't dislike Hey. Anthony just says he thinks that they won't really get it cause you have 2 have been around the block a few times in order 2 really get the song, I think he's right. This song has been out since 2006, when I first heard the song in my 20's I thought that I got it. Now that its been a few years and I'm in my 30's, more has happened in my life. Now I get the song even more
Keep seeing comments about Anthony's 'Seasoned verterano' comment. Personally what I think he means is that an average 16/17 year old, with a relatively normal life, might not have that connection with the lyrics, and the content, as a late 20's/early 20's with a lot of life expereince and baggage along the way. Of course there are exceptions, and there are those who go through a lot, but that's what he means by going round the block a few times-having to deal with more than schoolard drama imo
dude im 14 and i looove hey, im not sayin that i understand it in the way the rhcp ment it to be understood but its just great i can just sit at night and like listen to it over and over and over. somtimes when i learn songs on guitar or bass they lose thier magic but this song stayed amazing.
Hey just might be my favorite song on stadium arcadium! Im surprised that they list this as their top five on the album, but it seems like they never played it live. Or at least i cant find a quality version...
"I have discovered, that , much to my amazement, it is NOT a song for everyone, I think you have to be somewhat of a seasoned veterano, of experience, to get on the train of Hey."
My issue with the song is that it comes right after "Wet Sand". John's huge, screaming guitar solo after that whole long song just makes butterflies and hummingbirds explode out of my head-- and then "Hey" feels really anti-climactic and watered down in comparison.
I think i get this now. It must be the feeling you get when you are an established musician but you're exhausted and you want to quit, but you still have an amazing feeling of excitement due to your fame and achievements. I didn't get this song until i watched this commentary. So yeah, a great, very real song.
I get what he is saying. I bought the album, and it didn't really speak to me like the others, then some months later, my gf and I got into it and she left me for another guy, and this became my favorite song ever
yeah, i get what theyre saying, but being a musician (and 16), i listened to it intently and really was impressed and got in the hey mood, such a spacey song, it feels so open, but contained, like you dont have to wait for this huge thing, its all right there, the groove keeps on. though i can see what theyre saying, if you like a lot of catchy upbeat stuff. its a moody song
I dont know if it is because I am an "Old Fart" with a block or two behind me as he mentions, or if I just really like "Hey". But I love...."Hey"...Old or not.
contemplating whether it's the best song off the album. No doubt top five. Takes me back to last summer, cruising in my friends car with other friends in the back and we're going to have a nice practice session at my friend's brother's house.
"Hey" is a little bluesy and jazzy....I think. I love it, its sort of relaxing laidback feeling, plus the solo is very good too! And the entire groove.
anthony's right about hey...nothing's sugar-coated about it...it's just straight-up to you
he's also right about the "needing to have been around the block" thing...cuz without that perspective, you can't really relate to it, which is why maybe some "youngsters" might not be with hey
but...on a different note, hey's amazing...my favorite song of all time
everything just fits together perfectly, flea's bass, chad's drums, anthony's vocals, john's guitar...and his solo...ohhh mann
the difference between the lyrics in hey and something like sayyyyyyyy sir phycho sexy is amazing......i wonder if youngsters understand sir psycho sexy......
i always want to see the face of a 16 year old girl who loves the chili peppers when she first listens to that fucken piece of work on BSSM....beautiful
i love this song! every time i listen to S.A i can't wait for the jupiter cd to end and come to this. it always makes me feel really overwhelmed yet relaxed if that makes sense? like its so calming and puts all that crap in your life into perspective ya know.
this song was one of the ones that i listened to probably like 100 times straight through on repeat. the whole rhythm and feeling of the song just flows so well. great song
