Like this song says.. My theory isn't perfect but it's close.. John will come back and josh will stay.. and RCHP will release the best fucking album ever!!!
This is my hope as well. Josh to back up guitar and incorporate the keyboard, and John back with his flawless guitar and vocals. I'm realllly hoping for it:)
Red John Chili Peppers are going to be always here <3
It's not like i'm saying that John was the band, but, he was a very especial Part of it.. I still feel so many Things when I listen to every single sound that came out of his guitar..
come on you guys I have seen them in concert twice and he always mixes the lyrics up like that, it's a part of what makes seeing them live so fun and unique
Everytime I hear this song, I imagine that I'm climbing a mountain I reach the top when anthony screams "yeehhh", I jump and fly worned by johns solo..... greeeaaeeeeaaaat... sorry for my bad english
Never in our life time will we experience a band quite like the chili peppers. Bands come and go, fads show and fade, but the chili peppers will always remain.
@krozer05 I view this song as meaning this: As sand, you don't have to worry about change and nothing is different. But when sand gets wet, it can't be as free as it was, can't flow in the wind, it has to be strong and stand together, or it will fall apart. Thats how I get it anyways.
@henkiewessel and then you hear from me they played this song yesterday with josh klinghoffer and you realize josh really is amazing too! look it up: Wet Sand @ Bercy
basicly for me i think that,this solo is the best he has ever did for wet sand...because i have seen a lot of other solos and i didn't like them as much as that one
notice that every body gotta do hella sht but all chad has to do is ceep the beat and do some hella fast drumming but there are still freaking awsome!!!
The Peppers is a next level band from any other one they are something else, unfortunaly nobody could follow them as a rock trend or style, they did it all this past decade.
what change in the lyrics, what solo, why did they take the mtv videos off. i like live stuff, but huwhathahl! although rhcp are about the best band ever including 100 others..
I am a massive chili peppers fan, so I might be slightly biased here, but I think all their songs, hard or soft, are great in their own ways. I can never get tired of listening to them cause not only is their music great but it transcends so many genres. I will say the softer stuff is more emotional and has a ton of feeling in it. I just love it all haha.
WOW ANTHONY. LEARN THE WORDS
