Red Hot Chili Peppers - Tearjerker

[TarawrAshley]

@stag7533 I know it's a little late but...Scar Tissue, Page 287 "He was wearing a ripped dress, and his skin was bad and he looked like he hadn't slept for a few days"

[MadworldArt]

A wonderfull song.. It's a really tearjerker

[shinystuffff]

5 people didn't turn up the track a little bit...PLEASE.

[flea1395]

after reading Scar Tissue (Kiedis book) All the songs have more meaning

[CanEHduh88]

@flea1395 Yes hats what ive been saying each time i get to a song he explains...like..."OHHHHH THATS WHAT ITS ABOUT" or i just laugh and say to myself "what a smart fucking guy!"

[666AMC666]

PS kurt..........I love you..not as a musician as a human being and soul

[666AMC666]

he was in a dress during a video, In bloom

[DreeySixx]

:( ... This song is so beautiful ... i miss to kurt cobain... Thank RHCP for this song. <3

[FreakystyleyFunkMonk]

happy birthday :)

[Spiderpig678]

Happy birthday Kurt!

[COLovesYou1]

Kurt would have been 44 today. So young. 

[lsavovas]

@COLovesYou1

45 actually :) He's 1967 ..

[kaixuruha]

sweet!!! i'm missing kurt more, im going to dl this song..

[Mozzzzy1]

i truly wish u tube was an outlet for the artists to put their full interpretation of a song forward , both musically and visually. I would love to see the RHCP video rather than a screenshot of an album cover. Great song would like to see the RHCP video tribute to KC also. Love and Respect

[Cloyce007]

This is amazing two bands I love so very much. And a personal hero of mine they left this world before his time. God bless Kurt Cobain

[brmnman]

Isn't this a korn cover?

[CaribDevist]

@brmnman I loled.

[johnFruscianteFlea]

@brmnman srsly ... dude .. fuck you

[brammenovichela]

@brmnman Not sure if trolling or just very stupid.

[brmnman]

@brammenovichela no im not trolling because korn had a song that had the same name as this

[damned1997]

kurt come back!!

[shortypie90]

I love Kurt Cobain and Nirvana, and have been a fan for years. I also love the Peppers a lot as well and being a singer, I tend to be more drawn to Anthony as well as Kurt. The fact that Anthony would write this for Kurt overwhelms me with joy and happiness. It makes me so happy to know that Anthony shares an affinity for Kurt with me. If I could thank him in person, I would. Maybe when I see him in 4 months, I will. <33

[flea1395]

@shortypie90 you see in 4 months ? where?

[shortypie90]

@flea1395 In columbus! :)

[TheMedinaGB]

El Maldito Bastardo Del Grunge Kurt....

[AgronAddicted]

Kurt and Anthony were such a firework, when they were together.

KURT, WE MISS YOU! Please, come back.

[SuperPatrickstar1]

he did perform in a dress tho...

[redhotchilipepper432]

;)

[redhotchilipepper432]

-thumbs up my comments-

[redhotchilipepper432]

People often ask me, why do you love the R.H.C.P'S so much? ANTHONY GETS THE AWARD FOR : BEST SONGWRITER/BEST LYRICS/HOTTEST LOOKS EVER IN THE WHOLE UNIVERSE/AWESOMENESS/ sadness/happyness/greatness AND THERE ARE THE REASONS TO LOVE THEM! THUMBS UP IF YOU AGREE

[redhotchilipepper432]

SUCH A SAD SONG! watch :

"Just lose and lose: / "Guess now you know

I love you so" / "Cause the one

Who hurts

Can give so much

You gave me such" those few lyrics mean so much, and that's not even the chorus!

[redhotchilipepper432]

Cause the one

Who hurts

Can give so much

You gave me such <----- thumbs up if you agree with me, those words mean SOO MUCH and they are only a few words.

[jtraub91]

i like one hot minute more than im with you. at least navarro adds some style. this guy klinghoffer is soulless...

[acdcpjsp]

josh klinghoffer is dope as fuck. im with you had so much more style than you give it credit for. hes been writing music his whole life and if you consider something like Brendan's death song or police station soul less thats crazy dude. no disrespect to you or any red hot chili peppers album though.

[saraleon84]

Such a beautiful song...such respect from RHCP...R.I.P. Kurt Cobain :'(

[MrThiagosombra]

The first time anthony met kurt was in Hollywood Rock in Brazil. Kurt wanted mess the show and played in a dress.

[XGONEWBSLAYER]

Beautiful!

[GrungeLord33]

:,(

[L00zerd00d]

@shineshorty13-I think we all know Anthony's writing is a little bit deeper than just writing something because it rhymes.. especially in a song like this.

[L00zerd00d]

@asukakumiko211- Could yo turn up the track a little bit please?

[shineshorty13]

kurt wasn't in a dress,,but he was high so A.K. described him as perfect mess...wrote dress cause it rhymes wth mess!!!!

[Green12a]

such an amazing song!!! i bet even Kurt would cry if he listened to this! :'D

[robzbobz]

Intro reminds me of a live version of Cliffs of Dover I saw on youtube

[LDY1208]

прЫлестно!

[JoxisOi]

RESPECT!

Kurt <3

[Adrian4713]

Good song. You know, after Kurt died, you can see many songs that tried to pay him a little respect in one way or another, and talked about it in either bold and blunt ways, like this one, though soft and gentle. Kurt meant alot to everyone. He was the leader basically, he set everything up so nicely for everyone else to bring that style of music into pop culture, and these bands lost something of a godfather. Kurt was just a guy who wrote good songs.

[stag7533]

HE WAS NOT REALLY IN A DRESS! Read Anthony Keidis's book!

[Sundown131]

@stag7533

Yep, right, but btw. Kurt worn dress sometimes ;)

[redsoxsiu1]

@stag7533 are you stupid? it clearly states that the first time Anthony saw Kurt he was backstage in a dress. Maybe you should parrtake in your own advice and read the book again.

[stag7533]

@redsoxsiu1 It seems someone's on there period.....

[MaxxPaulTv]

@stag7533 He did wear dresses though.

[AstronautfarmerRonau]

@stag7533 Anthony Kiedis*

And Kurt was in a torn up dress.

[NightTimeRightTime]

@stag7533 I've read the book.....when they met, he was wearing a dress.

[thegroovysmoothie]

This is so sweet<333

[waluigithecool2]

Look at the bright side; at least Foo Fighters was born. But still, I miss Kurt a lot.

[TheDiceman912]

@waluigithecool2 that's not really a 'bright side' the Foo Fighters aren't half as good as Nirvana and as of now their new album is terrible...but Kurt is deeply missed by everyone

[waluigithecool2]

@TheDiceman912

Ah, well. Happy 20th to "Nevermind," I guess.

[seanmoriarty2]

gee whiz. remember this song back in the 90's, just got the Kurt connection from the posts. all the more awesome, makes much more sense. Very touching

[hurryporter]

this on is my favorite

[matea6074]

beautiful song! :'(

[sp1derfan90]

Kurt! Why did Courtney have to kill you?

[JoxisOi]

@sp1derfan90 I agree. :(

[abar1204]

R.I.P Kurt Cobain :'(

[zibamanzar]

Kurt wore dresses as part of his fight for women's rights

[BackingTracks6661]

@zibamanzar Is right, Kurt wore dresses for womans rights.

And in a tad way, a way to get at the homophobes (Which Kurt hated with all of his guts)

Kurt was also up on gay rights too, so the dress could of been for both woman and gay rights.

[Hardcorepoweranger]

I don't understand the dress part?

[RHCPFreaklol]

@Hardcorepoweranger When he first saw Kurt he was backstage in a dress......pretty obvious by the lyrics isn't it? It was probably some funny thing Kurt was gonna do.

[Hardcorepoweranger]

@RHCPFreaklol I got the fact that he was in a dress, thanks. i just don't get why. :P

[RHCPFreaklol]

@Hardcorepoweranger He was probably gonna pull a joke or something. Like he did at Reading when he came out in a hospital gown.

[stag7533]

@RHCPFreaklol No, Kurt was opening for RHCP. He was wearing something different then the rest of us. A different style. Anthony calls it a dress

[Gabbifer14]

@RHCPFreaklol Thats not why..he was like all high or drunk..i read Scar Tissue by anthony kiedis and thats what he said happened haha

[BILLY23WONKA]

@RHCPFreaklol He always wore dresses just to fool around.

[KiwiHabel]

@Hardcorepoweranger

there is an interview with kurt where he wears a big yellow dress :)

[Hardcorepoweranger]

@KiwiHabel Haha that's righteous. :D

[281294NIRVANA]

@Hardcorepoweranger i think he was in a dress for the song dive, he often played that song in a dress

[herbatamietowa]

@Hardcorepoweranger Kurt wore the dress, because on this concert Nirvana was going to performance to dress up as women.

[pedritomelo]

@Hardcorepoweranger that's because Kurt used to wear a dress to play on stage

[423musicfan]

@RHCPFreaklol I don't know man I would imagine he did it with a genuine nature he was freaking crazy

[MaxxPaulTv]

@Hardcorepoweranger Cobain wore dresses in concert because he hated homophobes and wanted to piss them off.

[tadster94]

@MaxxPaulTv this is true

[MaxxPaulTv]

@Hardcorepoweranger Kurt always wore dresses just to piss off homophobes.

[RHCPFreaklol]

@thedinkieghost Yeah, I thought I remembered that from it.

[LolloneSwazzoso]

I'm Italian. I LOVE this Song. I love THE PEPPERS for all my life.

[naruto456ization]

@LolloneSwazzoso grande bomber!!

[BackingTracks6661]

Quite amazing that someone as talented as Anthony was so touched by Kurt, but could you blame him? Who hasn't been touched by Kurt? He was the first musician to come out of the speakers and actually touched my soul.

R.I.P. Kurt, your music was always there for us when we were lonely, sorry we could of been there for you when you were lonely.

[0urTimeToShine]

"I don't know why everyone on earth felt so close to that guy; he was beloved and endearing and inoffensive in a some weird way. For all of his screaming and all of his darkness, he was just lovable." - Anthony Kiedis

Forever, Kurt.

<3

[RHCPFreaklol]

@0urTimeToShine Scar Tissue right?

[Horlitz]

For Kurt!!

[RHCPFreaklol]

@Horlitz No shit!!

[shanana337]

[Shikathescarecrow]

Thank you to the red hot for this honor to Kurt Cobain!

R.I.P Kurt!

[rakkkhi]

[RHCPFreaklol]

@rakkkhi You would he have a shitty life just because he say's a book he reads is the best he's read? You're really retarded..... What if he just doesn't read much? I hate to read books but maybe a nerd like you loves to read them....

[RHCPFreaklol]

@RHCPFreaklol How*

[shanana337]

@rakkkhi Scar Tissue is such a kick ass fucking book. Best book i ever read. when your a fan of a band and their lead singer writes a fuckin book i'm sure you would think it's you favorite book. it's called DEDICATION. dedicated fans. FUCKIN LOVE RHCP!!!!

[antronix]

and river phoenix!

[zibamanzar]

@LiveAtSlaneCastle can you turn up the track a little bit please

[winross]

... Kurt Rest In Peace ...

We Love You

[lilasam44]

this song is about Kurt Cobain, Kiedis said it at the time, and what the song says is clearly about him, they were buds...

[onestepcloser17]

I'm so sad that Kurt died and I didn't even know the guy

I can only imagine how Kiedis must have felt knowing him personally .... </3

[piemakesmelol]

What a fantastic song. Such a shame that Kurt passed R.I.P Kurt

[Sweatx23]

Does anyone know the name of the song played from 0:01-4:20?

[RHCPFreaklol]

@Sweatx23 Tearjerker. It's in the title of the video.

[deform08]

your fair blue eyes :)

[cwestsupporter]

good lord, I love these guys so much, i know john is a better fit but the peppers are the peppers, my god what these men have done for me is amazing, i only hope josh can keep the flow going now that john is gone again

[NovaStraCe]

sad to be so underrated ... great album. and great song. maybe this line up wasnt meant to be for long obviously, but for just this record, its worth it. :)

[michaellovegrove]

yep, its about Kurt. read it in Scar Tissue.

[Viviana1997100]

soooooo sad...this must of been about kurt.

[RHCPFreaklol]

@Viviana1997100 If you read the annotation you'd see that it is.

[poisin224]

The first two verses perfectly describe a fight that me and my girl had last night. I still love her though, and I'm never gonna stop loving her.

[Sundrownpaw45]

i love this :D

[Andrewthegreathobo]

the people who dont like this are (enter swear here)

[JOseXEpo]

esa cancion hace honor a kurt cobain =)

[JOSEGOYES]

NICE...

[BejnXander]

Love the guitar

[NecaRHCP]

RHCP 4ever....the coolest song ever :)

[sergio311]

i love smoking weed and getting all emotional to music like this, fuck man, Kurt brother, were you so Enlightened that you couldnt stand to see the world in the shape it was ? if only you could see it now :( i will help as many people before my time :)

[MrJohnnyAOA]

@sergio311 I like your philosophy of helping as many people before your time. You are a true human being.

[angelika1g6a]

Come back Kurt, we all need you so much!

[emmiway]

yes he said it in his book "scar tissue"!

[jurcinaaaa]

is there an actual quote of anthony saying this song is about kurt? i think its possible this may be about shannon hoon from blind melon. shannon performed at woodstock in a dress, it also adds up with the dimple, whiskers, and blue eyes.. just a thought

[ckbehnke10]

If you read anthonys book he says that the first time he ever met kurt cobain he was wearing a dress fucked up backstage

[nirvanamkp]

it says in the book that he specifically wrote this about kurt

[RHCPFreaklol]

Its about Kurt. In his book he said when they were in Alaska or Hawaii? Trying to write songs and then when he found out he went out into an old barn and wrote the lyrics. I think it was an old barn. Its been a while. And the first time he saw him was backstage when Nirvana was opening for the during the BSSM tour and he was in a dress. I don't remember if he said he was on drugs or not.

[Ryder1199]

@RHCPFreaklol They were in Hawaii and he went to some small house outback to write this song. It is all about Kurt.

[Storhonta]

@RHCPFreaklol Just look at the album cover, thats kurt cobain playing some string instrument, being an angel

[brian108832]

@RHCPFreaklol Hawaii

[emmiway]

@jurcinaaaa

yes he said it in his book "scar tissue"

you schould read it its very interesting ;D

[potgoddessx420x]

@jurcinaaaa i remember kurt looking particularly good in a dress lol

[emmiway]

@jurcinaaaa yes Anthoney kiedis wrote this in his autobiographie called "scar tissue"

it's also the best book I ever read!! (and I read all Harry Potter :D)

[RHCPFreaklol]

@emmiway How the fuck did you read all of the Harry Potter books?!?!? #LOL

[emmiway]

@RHCPFreaklol I was bored...

but scar tissue is the best book I ever read in my live!!

and RHCP is the best band I heard in my life!!!!

[RHCPFreaklol]

@emmiway Lol, "I was bored..." and yes it is the best book.

[benbu7m01]

Makes me cry even now .

[bizarreria]

[cooldogface]

[guitar19904]

@cooldogface

CRAZY HOW TIME FLIES

[CheeseMan9613]

happy birthday kurt

[Cracco94]

happy birthday to you kurt cobain!!

[8scatterbrain8]

is this song about kurt cobain..?

[RHCPFreaklol]

Yes it is. Anthony wrote the lyrics when he found out he died.

[cadj86]

i love you cobain

wherever you are

[Methstories]

Kurt Cobain. One of those guys that will be around forever.

[Paakkor]

Come back Kurt :(

[DegeneratePhobia]

This song makes me sad.

[agentbling]

It's a shame john frusciante left the band again but now that he is gone i wonder if they will play songs off this album. This is a truly wonderful song.

[ashcan6]

so sad, even after all these years. this month is kurt's b-day.

[kiedissmithlover62]

i cried the first time i heard this ='(

[RudyKojot]

R.I.P Kurt ;(

[MiLTekC]

yeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

[drainyou1231]

Wow this song is absoloutley amazing! I LOVE Kurt and this song describes him wonderfuly \m/ o.o \m/

[GiveItAway99]

this song is real bittersweet, it makes me smile cos i kno a guy who was the exact description that anthony uses for kurt,

it makes me sad cos i lost him just like we lost kurt....

i love how songs can mean such different things to different people..

[simpstube0]

from:red hot chilli peppers

to: kurt cobain

kurt eres inmortal en mexico t extrañamos, en todo el mundo t extrañamos

atte.un fan mas de kurt

[SheIsJustForAwhile]

another amazing song - makes me calm down

[fuzz7654]

this song is my new favorite i love it well done chili peppers!!! and john needs to come back!!!

[PunisherXD40]

john wasnt on this album... but sure... maybe Dave Navarro needs to come back.

[RHCPFreaklol]

No he meant John left and he needs to come back.

[PunisherXD40]

I get it... but pining over john on a track he wasnt on makes no sense. :-)

[IRISHPUNK676]

@RHCPFreaklol

yeah in my oppinion next to john leaving again, navarro was the worst thing to happened to the peppers

[mcbreensnz]

first verses echo the momemt i heard the news about my sisters passing car acciacdent

[undercoverLsX]

RIP Cobain, 67-94

Heroin is a horrible drug, we are all so luck that Frusciante was able to over come it.

[TheMus1cfan]

Love the chillies - recently got my hands on their discography - I have ALL of their stuff now - including rare recordings! HAPPY GIRL AM I! ;)

[0oShAdOw77]

excellent song made for a good singer......
