My heart started to beat faster from 2:20 til the end.

[GRRJayyy]

[nobby22]

How the fuck is he playing THAT and singing like THAT at the same time!?

Oh my bad, he's Jesus - how could I forget..?

[rbkballerai3]

best outro ever?

[metratix]

I would love to see the rhcp play some one hot minute material- I still consider it one of their best, alot of effort and emotion was put in that album

[added23]

how lucky is this audience? they got to witness funky monks live

[TheLonesomeChef]

ha anthony fucked up the lyrics in the second verse... thats how much they play this song.

[mariodan86]

i was there!!!!

[MrCristh24]

exelente cancion y en vivo aun mejor nadie como john que puede cantar y hacer esos toques complicados a la ves... los idiotas que pusieron negativo no saben apreciar la calidad de musica que hace este grupo tan famoso y unico..red hot chili peppers 4 ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!! saludos y por supuesto puse pulgar arriba.!

[knockemdown]

[StingrayWil]

Johns A Legend, A God!

[BackporchTapes]

spice43 ?????

[spice43]

anyone know what year this is?

[omenow]

@spice43 1991. From the Blood Sugar Sex Magik album, by far their best record.

[spice43]

@omenow bro i meant the show, of course the song is from bssm

[carlislegb1]

@spice43 2006

[SanctumStudios]

JF = Amazing

[alexjamess]

how can john play that ground breaking riff and sing... unique superb

[ManitouPL]

@alexjamess true

[JeffersonColby]

@alexjamess

he IS JOHN MOTHER FUCKING FRUSCIANTE THASZ HOW!!

[Kakaxxx222]

i've heard that this is Johns favorite rhcp song...is that true?

[SebaChannel]

@Kakaxxx222 he have good taste

[daddyfunk13]

ahhh never thought I would hear this one live

[Simmeringtim]

Favorite song to light up a joint too :)

[CuteHotChiliPeppers]

John's voice is to die for.

[1999californication]

fucking AWESOME!

[gogogrant]

This video just made me so happy! Haha. What a brilliant video. :)

[777jackpot1]

Im kinda sad. I wanted to hear this song on their next tour but it should be illegal for anyone to play this song with RHCP exept john.

[mciglot]

Fuckin music , it's fuckin great music , John is the best !

[BlueVoiceMusic]

John's favorite song, you can feel the music when Frusciante is playing this :)

[frencbend]

BSSM is such a sexual album! its so funky and awesome sound, they should always play it

[MayorsOffice881]

WHY WONT THEY PLAY SLINKY LIVE??!!?

[added23]

@MayorsOffice881 if i could see them play it live i would crap me pants

[777jackpot1]

How does john play while singing on that part?

[VaultMusic105]

@777jackpot1 Dont get me wrong, john can do so much stuff others cant for various reasons but its also true that once you play a riff over and over agin for a long time, then even if it is a hard riff that becomes really easy for you so if you just keep practicing a riff, you can sing even lead while playing something hard. But to master a riff though it takes alot of time and practice. Alsohe made it so its probally much easier for him then for anyones else.

[mauricioosan]

Mellowship, Funky Monks and Apache Rose Pacock, Highlights from BSSM

[RHCPFreaklol]

I also like Sir Psycho Sexy .... well i love the whole album.

[mauricioosan]

@RHCPFreaklol

Yeah man. And I think they should and could play some old stuff. BSSM has sucha a great energy, Apache Rose Peacock has such a feeling that I can't describe when AK sings "Yes my favorite place to be, is not a land called Honah Lee"

[11193dom]

my grandfather has one of those basses

[ThreeCrowns]

what kind of bass is that?

[11193dom]

idk but i do know its a 5 string

[AsurorusA]

haha frus @ the end of the song

[added23]

funky monks is the best funking song on the mother funking planet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[yourawesomenesss]

The guitar is very hendrix-like.

[AnthonyKiedisAK]

Anthony is so good dude!!! He is still so SO good !!!

[BRitaBRazil]

one of the only times flea would use a 5 string bass live

[SebaChannel]

nice song, flea bass is great

i wish they always play this song

[purchiboy]

you gotta be kiddin

i wouldve killed to hear that song live and i heard them one week later in vienna, shit!

red hot forever

[manueletchart]

que bueno hubiese sido vivir eso!

[iamusais]

io c' ero

[paulio2293]

CLEAN IT UP JOHN

[Misfit105]

whats saturnino?

[geetarcharlie]

It's more like WHO'S saturnino.

It's Saturnino Celani's bass Flea's using.

[favd2002]

take a look of the HILO DE ARIADNA FUNKY MONKS COVER

[sgtsully71]

what u mean five string bass, its not like its easier than a four string, why are u laughing about it, i play one

[drummerboy2465]

damnnnn you have such good seats i hate you

[fetpipan77]

i can see god

[brotherstan28]

yes, definitely

[tolosup]

uhuh.. AAAAH they are so good :|... GODS

[antosirpsycho88]

io ero proprio da queste parti :D

[ginty019]

solo very hendrixish

[loverhcp4ever]

you are so lucky!!!!!!

[vieri031]

haha, 5 string bass.. but this song is pretty easy on bass

[plynwithfire]

that whole album is AMAZING!!

[ruma17]

bssm is best album ever. not a bad song on it

[calmlikeabomb10]

Great song terrible quality

[geetarcharlie]

I agree. It's always good to see them play some more songs from BSSM. Performances like these are like gold to the LONG-time fans of the RHCP :D

[cptmiles81]

bssm is by far their best album, this track clearly one of best 5 on it

[calmlikeabomb10]

best tracks on BSSM 1. Suck My Kiss 2. If You Have To Ask 3. Funky Monks 4. Mellowship Slinky in B Major 5. Give It Away 6. Apache Rose Peacock 7. The Greeting Song 8. Breaking The Girl 9. Under the Bridge 10. Righteous & the Wicked

[quantiko]

what about i could have lied? like the best song ever...

[calmlikeabomb10]

well that's just my opinion still it's a great album

[thewhochilipeppersU2]

But Im fucked up now...

[mciver82]

what about sir pyhsco sexy? thats my favorite by the chili peppers, from any album.

[thewhochilipeppersU2]

what about,"My Lovely Man?"

[musicowned]

uuuhhhhhhhhhh

what about.... hmm ALL OF THEM LOL

[marvottis]

what about power of equality?

[redhotchilipeppers25]

when is this from?

[Dodlemcno]

It's from Blood Sugar Sex Magik. People might give you thumbs down for this because they're offended that you don't know about it which is rather funny, but given a few listens you'll understand how someone can get so excited by it that they lose rationality.

[redhotchilipeppers25]

haha i know its from BSSM. i was wondering when the concert was from. the dates up there now, maybe it wasnt when i made that comment or i didnt see it.

[kiedisfan1162]

sooo funky.....

RHCP 4EVER!!!

[tangomike07]

Monks!

[Viacomclosedmedown]

ha anthony is funny, yes we "locals are dead last". i forgot about this hidden bonus track and i remember on those first 4 tours at first ave how antwan the swan would pick me out in my mocassins and lumberjack flannel cus i danced so funky near the stage. being my first show at the ave.

[faiel]

this is a blood sugar's song[...]

[Isaiasm2006]

lol there is like a 5 second sound delay.

[Retardinjo99]

u dont have to worry...

[jirothefish]

i love every single rhcp album ever, and although basically noone knows that they go right back to 83, i love it when i get to show them all the old stuff that they havent seen before

its just like spreading the pepperness, and most people actually love it, its just - except from higher ground, under the bridge and give it away- the stuff from before californication never gets played and most people are to lazy to explore other music they havent heard from artists they like

[louiedoggz]

true that, most of my friends only really like californication (album) and the singles off by the way, and the new singles off SA.

but when their here i got uplift mofo party plan playing with some mothers milk and people are like wow.. amazing. lol

[maddermofo]

great song. love the sound of Fleas bass

[WackStrings22]

the neck on that bass is so long

[funkaliciousbannana]

yur fuckn retards this song is like early 90 late 80s as oppesed to the stadium arcadium songs

[pardoned]

its from 1991... written just before bssm was recorded...

[rogmaster00]

80's ???? um, you might wanna check that buddy!... try mid nineties

[TheIrishStudios]

1991, early ninties not the mid-nineties. buy the album its pretty good.

[Apebee]

Concerto spettacolare

[WackStrings22]

blood sugar was the shit

fuckin stadium arcadium only has a few good tunes on it

[ptrLeGrand]

Don't you know what you're talking about? Those were the good Chili Peppers years. Now, they're turnin' kinda Soft Pop, really less tasty...

[facedspaced]

couldn't agree more, anyone who thinks recent chili peppers is better has no clue what they're talkin about. mother's milk, self-titled, bssm, funky and raw.

[guitichie99]

i dont understand y ppl cant appreciate their artistic transformation of late... i mean dont get me wrong, BSSM is my favorite album from any artist or group ever but stadium arcadium isnt bad... its just different. i guess different ppl like different things...

[facedspaced]

I can dig it, its an interesting transition. I just can't stand when people talk about the chili peppers like they hadn't existed before californication.

[guitichie99]

oh yeah, i know exactly wat u mean. like i said, BSSM is my favorite album of all-time:)

[birdieboy91]

same here

[rhcp824]

Yeah, chili peppers are awesome and pre californication is straight sill but after that is pretty dang good too.

[louiedoggz]

id say uplift mofo party plan is their best cd by far. as much as i love john, they wouldn't be around without hillel's spirit.

[shatu]

john has so much emotion in his playing that i dont care if he is playing the sama lick over and over again. It still sounds cool, 50 different licks or 1 same lick.

[haglien]

wtf is a lick??? and who cares??? best rhcp song ever i can not ecpress the love i have for their music! <3

[Elendil161]

No jo :-D zvuk de napřed.

[lukindel]

presne tak (uz dlho som chcel napisat nieco v rodnej reci medzi tych anglictinarov:)

[Elendil161]

Ale ty seš slovák.Já tady snad taky ještě neviděl češtinu,proto sem to napsal česky ;-)

[Isaiasm2006]

Is that German?

[carlcote]

fuuuuucking idiot

[Isaiasm2006]

I ment the dudes the posted above me.

Somehow I did not hit the reply button.

[cHaTLo77]

is it me or is the sound way out of sync? if not then anthony is doing the chorus

[adambirbeck87]

doesn't rly sound anything like dani california. . .

[LHOOQandEm]

Anthony keeps on effing up the lyrics. geez :S

[paperbackwriter14]

no it doesn't, this one sounds bad probably cause it's a recording, basses in concert sound real good

[Ant0n101]

could all the dumbasses leave and let us enjoy the music

[Bozzer25]

yea he is playing a 5 string

[Silentlamb13]

is flea plyin a 5 string

[DazedNConfused87]

LMAO! ysius u look like a damn fool. u know alot about music do you? just coz he did sum fast licks in the solo u think he took the solo from dani california? u moron u dont know wot ur talkin about

[maldimar]

that, my friend is merely an opinion and, fortunately, not a fact...

[Drogenmuffti]

I'm on their concert in hamburg on Sunday.....I really,really hope they play this song....wish me luck xD

[Nicolas1776]

hahaha what a dumb ass, it seems that you dont hear right, why dont you look up some live performances of the red hot and you´ll se thgat john ALWAYS chagnes his solos

[ysius]

I might have seen the most JF solo's live of u all. I know he 'changes' his solo's all the time. But that change is taking a solo from one song and play it into another song.

Here he 'changes' the solo from funky monks into dani's solo. Im sorry for the noobs here, but if you don't understand music you will never hear it.

[sirpsychoalexi]

so sue him

[ysius]

why? never go to their live shows again will do it.

[Jeremy1281988]

wow, you really don't know what you are talking about. Please don't say you know music, because 1) you are lying 2) you would embarass the people who actually know music. Your comments were so retarded, taking a lick from dani california? uhh... are you retarded? you realize everyone uses that lick and he does whats best for the song? you obviously don't know music or JF, never talk about him again and embarass us. please and thank you.

[ysius]

Listen closer, try to hear what he really plays, behind the song. Then you hear there is no difference between D.C .and F.M.:fastness, loadsof wah, no inspiration and it has nothing to do with the song. btw, i've got every solo album of jf + all rhcp albums and i can play every song. So don't tell me i dont know there music.

[Jeremy1281988]

no, i say you don't know music because of how your comments come off of. Just because it's a wah'd out fast lick doesn't mean 1) its the same 2) he always uses the same licks over and over. He does use that type of wah and distortion a lot, but its usually in a different key w/ different notes, i know where you are comin' from, but i can assure you, john has alot more in his arsenal than just that lick bro.

[ysius]

You're right, he has more in his arsenal. But he hasn't been using that for a while now,.

[Jeremy1281988]

only thing i get from your point is that one lick, that is all wah'd out w/ distortion, and yea, he uses it a lot, but only when its appropriate. its one of his signature licks, but its not like he is stealing it from another solo, because he wrote that one, you can't steal your own work. its like goin on an SRV video and bashing him for always using his special lick that he uses in all his songs, its a part of the artist. john by no means only uses one lick over and over. you should know that.

[cobain6]

u both realize that funy monks was made years before dani? so your both fuckin retarded

[Jeremy1281988]

do you relize that we are talking about this performance on the improv solo which is made after Dani... this is late 06...

[cobain6]

still...your retarded cus the solo's are completely different

[Jeremy1281988]

yea, that is what i've been sayin' the whole time.

[cobain6]

no u was saying that he just jacked the solo from dani and used it on this song!

[Jeremy1281988]

? no i was arguing with the guy who said that Froosh uses the same lick for every solo.

But anyway, just let it go. You already made yourself look stupid with that Funky Monks Dani California comment.

[mrredhot]

just because he is doing fast licks doesnt mean that hes taking the solo from dani, i mean the licks are different

[rossbakerjustin]

dude your an idiot if thats what you think

[ysius]

john plays same solo's over and over. It doesnt seem to matter what song he plays. This solo is from dani california aswell..

[gdgc22]

you my friend are a dumbass

[dragyourhalo]

you must love cock in your ass, it's apparent

[meghanrocks0421]

Does anyone know some videos that have good views of John's arms?

Links would be preferred.

Oh and if you don't know why I want to see his arms... don't bother replying :D

[gonask8arg]

look for "Under the bridge" at slane castle and you can see them perfectly... lol

[frulove87]

I love this song,

one of my favorites on BSSM!

[Balzary777]

In their recent Australia tour of April 07 they played ALOT of Mothers Milk songs.. and a couple BSSM

[luanlovelyman]

why anthony sings before? is the effect just in this song, or the whole concert was like that?? lol

[ArabianWoman122105]

at jan 31st they played blood sugar sex magik at Sunset

[greigjduncan]

TASTE THE PAIN live - legendary!

[rensy101]

that was awesome but i liked john with the hair better

[rhcp18evi]

I know they played their old song Sex Rap (1985)live at Paris La Cigale (20.04.06)

[michaelmahi]

i bet some fans who just go into from stadium arcadium were stuned to see them play a funk song like funky monks lol. its good too see them play songs from bssm, has anyone seen any new age vids of them playing songs from mothers milk or freaky styely if so plz tell i wanna see them play taste the pain

[vote4dicktravelogue]

hey dude. i saw them for a half year ago. And they were playing Blood sugar sex magik,i could have lied,give it away, TASTE THE PAIN and naked in the rain.

ps. they were also jamming a part of "they are red hot"

greatest concert i ever seen :) :) :)

[jujubean435]

Awesome :D

[rhcp102406]

They haven't played Taste the Pain since '91 dude. Your mixing up songs.

[johnfrusciante420]

john looks like he did back in 1992 with that short hair

[Ciach89]

Fru rules ! :) im going July 3rd

[ekcrhcp]

omg johns sofa king hot. wow i cant beleive how amazing they all are. acutlly i can nevermind, but yea god i wish i was fuckin here!!

[Hoboewithbagel66]

fuck ya... march 7th, toyota center im going... I got backstage passes lol

[visciouslemons]

omggggg cant wait to see them live march 7th

[malaka45]

que pedazo de cancion de las mejores de red hot :D

[parasiemprede9a]

jaja nonono they don't play this song there, listen the music and see anthony sing! there aren't coincidences

[niccoide199cp]

you say this because you don't hear the bass and the drums,but i promise there was sync.

[jfong9]

no, i say that because when you see john or anthony go up to the mic, you don't here them sing or the lyrics they sing til two or so seconds after...it's really not lined up.

[handley88]

Youtube always has a sync problem, especially with user submitted footage from video cameras or camera phones.

It's just youtube's fault. I'm sure they did play this. They played What Is Soul and Blood Sugar Sex Magik at the gig I went too, seem to be giving new fans a taste of the old Funk, it's bloody amazing. Awesome solo's at the end.

[jfong9]

Ah, I see.

And yes, I love the fact that they're playing BSSM tracks. They even played "Nobody Weird Like Me" at the Toronto concert. "bloody awesome" is right.

[jfong9]

why is the sound so out of sync?

[xtremepkerxx]

chili's have only played this song, knock me down and mercury less then 5 times... if you get to see either of the those 3 songs live ur a really lucky person... chili's fucking rock

[niccoide199cp]

what about 'mercury'?

explain,please..are you talkin about the song 'ON mercury'?

[jmf1968]

omg to see them actually do funky monks so VERY rare!! awesome!!

[BesideStrings49]

i think short hair suits john alot better.

when he has longer hair he just looks like jesus.

which is cool i guess.

[Libanass]

Is Flea using a G&L here?

[Canale8]

Roger Sadowsky 5 strings!

[porcodiodo]

cazzo io c'ero il 29 e funky monks non l'hanno fatta mi pare, che rosicata è una delle mie preferite. comunque se vai a curiosare nei miei video trovi un video particolare del concerto...

[marcusnor]

they didnt play this song in sweden on this tour
