@ThePsych0Logical I agree with the fact that his lyrics are splendid, but Anthony is NOT a good singer. He is blessed with his voice tone which sounds good, but he can't sing high notes very well, like Higher Ground, which its live version, at least the most of then, he got out of tune. He is a hell of a rapper though, which gives him a good breathing ability.
One who can be tagged as a good singer there is Frusciante. HE is a good singer!
@HaykenBR I also love Johns voice its very unique, and AK may not be able to sing high notes like JF, but hes not a opera singer, hes a rock star, i really dont care if he cant take the high notes, if we ignore the long californication tour when he had a sour throat, he has been good on many other tours and live performances like Slane castle, hyde park and live earth. Higher ground is an old school rhcp song, AK voice has really changed throughout the years and is now becoming very good.

Music is there to be listened and appreciated, unfortunately there are people out there who just don't see that. The music industry is becoming more about marketing and less about musical quality.
All of their live performances are heroic and they sound better than Album Version,they make every song that they play to be different from this concert and from another.Today rockers try to stick to the same song as they made it to be same when they play it live.Red Hot Chili Peppers are just amazing guys and they'r my favorite band because they play with music and enjoy it while making it.
@aektzis91 ORLY!?!?!?! try watching the video he does it in small portions quite often also he slaps the bass "LIKE A PIMP SLAPS A HO" at the bridge at 2:17
Why'd I get a thumbs down? I'm just saying that Anthony didn't really have good memories during OHM, and Josh may or not like playing that kind of music. And just like John, it may not be his style.
i hope so too. i mean, he'll realize that he misses them. it's cool that he's following his solo career but personally, he really wants to be with the chilis. it's just going to take him a while to realize that. but for now, sit tight and wait what happens.
well thats a bummer. i have his solo stuff. its not bad but not as good as the Chili Peppers. well, nobody thought Slovak could be replaced and they found John so maybe this kid wont be bad.
its just that what they are thinking about, is completely different then what we're thinking about. hes just doing his own thing he will come back at some point.
Im sure that, if the chili peppers didnt have a guitarist, they could go to any concert with 50,000 fans, and they would be able to find one fan who knows how to play every each song the band wants to play from start to finish
but it woudlnt be the same man they feel that music thats what made it so special is they could feel each others minds that kind of shit is irreplacable.
me too love this song.RHCP is the 90' s best band of this kind. Unbelieveble many bands with the PIXIES n NIRVANA style emerged but no one like them. May be Urban Dance Squad? Here in Italy we adore a half french, half latin band called SWAVE. Seek their song "In the Future" is awesome too
Something that i hate about Flea is that he likes to be minimalist and use simple and not so long basslines instead of what he did before blood sex sugar magic(the exact opposite).
hes just trying new things man and playing for the music sometimes bigger bass lines arent always gonna work and they all changed style wise each album chad used to play less now he plays more
im not even sure he uses a crybaby, i know he uses the ibanez and that there is definetly another wah with a sounds very distinct from the ibanez, but that was right off a website so im not sure
I wonder if Anthony has names for all the different singing voices he has. It's really funny because sometimes he mixes them up live!
