Just reading the By The Way bio by Dave Thompson, and Anthony was putting this song together before Uplift Mofo Party Plan, about both their ongoing issues with smack. He didn't like it until he looked at it again after Hillel died. It's a song for two friends and their particular relationship, around drugs. Uniquely brilliant Bass playing even for Flea, and their best arrangement until By The Way album IMO
anyone know if there is any video that shows the chili peppers working on mother's milk? (other then the short interview where john yells "I am john fruschante of the red hot chili peppers")
@MonsterxSGx209 no they filmed it in the "Mansion" the place where they wrote a few of their albums. It's now owned by Rick Rubin up in the Hollywood Hills
oh no, no, no people. they started recording there new album in early september this year. they have about 22 songs lined up Chad said. probobly early spring 2011
@joshcaprai amazon has it or you can order it at your local book store. It's OK, in my opinion Kedis is kind of a dumb L.A. guy and it shows in his writing. The book is more him bragging about sexual conquests and drug binges. It does have good info about RHCP.
@roxsteadygrrrl yeah i agree with ya man. he barely spent any time in the book talking about the tours they did, but there's like pages in their about his sex life and whole chapters about his drug runs.
in his book "Scar Tissue", AK states that this track wasn't referring to drugs, more a poke in the eye at the huge egos associated with some rock bands /artists of the day.
Yeah Aeonner015, it talks about Hillel slovak 's death (the guitar player), and the love and friendship Anthony and him use to have.They started the RHCP together at 17 years old...you maybe know already, but yes this song is heavy emotionnally.;for sure...One of the deepest ever..Peace to you Sweety..
uhhh crazy is awesome and i bet ur xtremely ugly!!! these guys are way more successful and awesome than u could evr b! so next time ur jealous of some1 please keep ur comments to yourself11 :P
Lol, it's funny, but strangeness is what unites all groovers, metalheads, junkies, punkers,all of those people, its what makes us unique, like evryone else :)
in this time a lot of their friends died of heroin&other drugs...so they TOGETHER(ssspectally ANTHONY)did this song.EVEN they all went trrough all shit THEY MADE IT..BRAVO...SOIT*S SO LONLEY IF YO DON*T EVEN KNOW YOR SELF...such a truth R E S P E C T
sikamikanico is the wayne's world song it was a b-side to the blood sugar album. Soul to squeeze was in cone heads and was also a b-side the the blood sugar album
amazing the way they can write a song about heroin addiction and death with so much energy, id like to see the jonas brothers do that! theyd fail! thats why id like to see them do it cos theyd fail and id laugh i would!
Soul to Squeeze is the Wayne's World song. It's on one of their greatest hits albums now, but for a lot of years it was only available on that soundtrack
