What i love about this is that its literally a COVER not a remake of the song with a different sounding singer, whether its good or not give them some respect for making basically a different song entirely with the same lyrics
Look, for all you haters out there raging on this cover, what they have done is they have shown such respect for the song they made a cover of it. So stop moaning about what is better or worse, music is for enjoyment and soulfulness, not to be compared and abused.
@bergjasper It's not that they didn't put any of their own style into it. It just needed either a little more, or a little less. It was ok. Not good exactly, but not too bad. It just needed a little more of a push one way or the other.
One of the best covers of all time, certanly their spin, yet trying to show respect to the original. good to randomly find this live. SandWrestling(dot)com
@JVKProduction yeah your music really sucks..to bad , but the culture of the last 20 years really does too.... its all over for the USA any way The Politicians, are in bed with wall street, but they prentend to chastise them, but really are conspiring against the middle class to keep you down and Obamma is Satan In Disguise. He will take us to the Greek situation in less than 18 months...by Suckers, soon no more money in the Banks,nor food in the supermarkets,leavin while there is still time
@npnovak911 yeah, that's because is a cover, not a COPY, this is exactly how I think a cover should be, you pick up a song you like and create your own version of it with your feeling and passion. Dylan and RCHP are fuckin great!!
@coronalite96 Get lost..you jerk off, Your generations music sucks. I dont give a fuck what you think,sonny.. So what that they are good technichal players.Their music is only listenable to your generation, "Californication"...HAHAHA , what the fuck is this???...Most All generations like The Bbeatles, Chicago< CSN&Y, Dylan,Moody Blues,Springsteen,The Who, these groups have music that is Music, not fuckin Loud noise, By punks that have to take their clorhes off to get noticed.. G F Y...
Pushin the envelope, just like Dylan has always done! Great cover by these guys, who have always been true to their art. I'm an avid Dylan fan, and this version rocks!
Forget it, Give it away will never be a classic Rock song,yes and all the groups you mentioned arent relavent in mainstream classic rock. Rage againts the machine...r u kidding, they re all in jail man...LOL...I wouldnt walk across the street for free to see any one of them. Youll never convince me .. and youll never see me here so enjoy your bands, whatever...My whole point was The R and R Hall is not relavent anymore with the garbage they inducted in past 5yrs. More categories, needed,
@jjs499 Dude you're making less and less sense. I said if you think RHCP represents all that's bad with this country I can't imagine what you would think of Marilyn Manson, Metallica, Black Sabbath or Rage Against the Machine - that's all. There are A LOT more controversial bands out there than RHCP. By the way, no member of Rage Against the Machine has gone to prison, you're making that shit up. Oh and classic rock/modern rock, fuck it, it's all rock! Who cares about R&R Hall of Fame anyway
@rcanheta well said, The Peppers belong in a cage, They sound like Coked up animals so cage them like animals...They combine Metal with Rap, 2 Genres that represent death , violence and drugs, Real nice combo...Dylan I admit wrecked his voice with cigaretts, Proably pot and whisky , but he wrote a lot of classics, Music and Lyrics....Soo many people covered him, THe proofs right out there, He really helped Peter Paul And Mary too..Mary travers , so sexy, great voice for them, rlly Miss her
Sounds like early Peppers. Huge fan of later Peppers but not really their first few albums, a little crazy, chaotic and all over the place for my liking
I like Dylan's version better - simply because RHCP just made the song sound like almost every other one of their songs. But I like RHCP, no doubt about that.
ok guys........ SHUT THE FUCK UP! stop arguing over witch version is better. both the original, and this version are completely different styles of music. rhcp put their funky twist on it, which is fine! we all have different opinions on music so just chill. me? im a die hard rhcp fan, so i like this version better..... PERSONALLY.
Agree with your there! The first music video, (that wasn't just a band playing) and primeval rap (with much better poetry than we get today!)
(Mind you, I'm a bit resentful that this may have triggered all those crap music videos we get to watch these days, I'd rather see the musicians making the music)
Dylan in his book "Bob Dylan Chronicles" seems to have a lot of respect for the rappers.
If this was NWA maybe, Or Public Enemy?. But a bunch of scrawny white boy wannabes? Not close? Well sang? How 'bout not sang at all? What a crock. Sang isn't English.
@aprilglaspieable Wannabes? wow, are you shitting me? These "white wannabes", as you like to call them, are one of the greatest musicians still alive. Jeez, get to know what's good music before making comments about it
LMAO at all of the Dylan fans who are super upset by this performance. Be happy. The Chili Peppers are showing love for the song and put their own unique sex-funk mix on it. =)
@Suplexmachine THis version sucks. Has no resemblance to the original.... Dylan doesnt need these fools to make or keep him relevant. ...Give me a fuckin break... You fool... This group sucks...R&R Hall Of SHAME JUST LOST ALL CREDIBILITY, PUTTING THIS WHITE TRASH INTO THEIR HALL...
@jjs499 Some cover songs sound a lot like the original, some only share few similarities...that's the beauty of a cover song. Choosing how to cover a song is half the fun. You say Dylan doesn't need these "fools to make or keep him relevant"? That's not what they're aiming to do here. They just like the song, so decided to cover it and have some fun. Big deal. RHCP are actually quite talented musicians. You're the first person I've ever heard call RHCP "white trash" LOL
@Suplexmachine Man Dylan stands on his own, I was making a point to another poster. If you want to call them talented musicians, so be it... on classical rock stations, i never hear them. Point is they will have made nothing relevant or lasting that will endure for future generations like Jagger, Lennon and MCartney, Johnny Cash, Dylan, Crosby Stills and Nash, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Webb,[ who I bet you probably never heard of LOL} ...So have fun with your peppers, ive heard enough.....
@jjs499 You were making a point to someone else yet you directly replied to my comment in the first place? Hmmm...anyways, yes, Flea, Chad Smith, and John Frusciante are ridiculously talented musicians. Youtube them for proof. Why would RHCP be played on classic rock stations? Those stations are reserved for mostly 60's - 80's rock. And yes RHCP has made relevant and lasting music that will last for future generations - I suggest you Wikipedia them. BTW I listen to everyone you named. =)
@Suplexmachine TELL MEe WHAT FUCKIN SONG THEY EVER RECORDED, THAT WILL BE REMEMBERED15 YEARS FRM NOW? SOXS ON COX?? HA WHAT A FUCKIN JOKE.....THEIR SONGS HAV NO MELODIC VALUE, ITS ALL VIOLENT IN YOUR FACE NOISE ABOUT DRUGS AND VIOLENCE, THEY STOMP AROUND ON STAGE WITH THEIR FALSE BRAVADO, TAKING THEIR CLOTHES OFF.. WITH THEIR STEROID MUSCLED BODIES, SHIRTS OFF, FUCKIN PUSSIES... THE MISGUIDED WENNER AND HIS MISGUIDED BAND OF DUMMIES,REALLY DISGRACED A ONCE LEGIT ALL OF FAME,
@jjs499 songs that will last the test of time: Californication (yes everyone knows it, even if you don't like it, and more will continue to hear about it), songs that have melodic value: I could have lied, Scar Tissue, Dani California, Otherside, Zephyr Song, i think you should really listen to some songs, before you make such a blatant assumption
Songs that will last test of time: Californication (yea, even if you don' like, it's been heard by tons of people, and will be continued to be heard by many more). Melodic Songs: Scar Tissue, Otherside, Zephyr Song, I Could have lied, Dani California, Snow (Hey Oh), and more. Should be more open minded and listen to more before making such a blatant assumption.
@vishalgulve Ill take the Dave Clark 5, CSN&Y< Kansas, Springsteen, [ O, crse the Beatles and Stones, Wings] Moody Blues, Chicago Transit Authority. You get the Picture. More moeodic and more great vocal harmony singing. THe way music or rock or whatever category TRHCP's are, and the bands u mentioned just changed with the times we are in angier times, thus angry , in your face, confrontational music, that is escalating with the anger and hate in the USA these days... hope u enjoy the HOF Crmny
@jjs499 Don't be ignorant, here's some melodic RHCP songs for you: Soul to Squeeze, Road Trippin, Slow Cheetah, My Friends, Venice Queen, This Velvet Glove, Scar Tissue, Otherside, Wet Sand, Californication, Desecration Smile, Tear, Melancholy Mechanics, I Could Die For You, Midnight, Cabron, Under the Bridge, Tearjerker, Gong Li, Transcending, Porcelain, Hard to Concentrate, Hey, Snow (Hey Oh), Meet Me At the Corner, Police Station, Brendan's Death Song, Happieness Loves Company, ETC. ETC. ETC.
@Suplexmachine..... forget it Joe....ill never listen to the pepers, And just enjoy it ...youl never covince me...we will never have groups/ songs as the groups in the era's I mentioned... I could care less, i dont listen to this garbage.... so Just enjoy it. Im outta here...anymore messages that show up, just know i delete w/out reading... go play in traffic....
@jjs499 Fine, continue to stay ignorant. I supplied you with many melodic, acoustic songs by the Chili Peppers and you're choosing to not listen to them. I've been nothing but nice to you the whole time, while you've been calling names and telling me to go play in traffic. You're absurd. I wonder if you speak to people the same face to face as you do on the internet? I'm coming off as the more logical, nice person and you're coming off as a bitter ignorant asshole. =) You're a music snob.
@jjs499 Here's some RHCP songs that are very well known and will stand the test of time: Under the Bridge, Give it Away, Breaking the Girl, My Friends, Californication, Scar Tissue, Otherside, Can't Stop, Zephyr Song, By the Way, Dani California, and I'm sure there's more...I don't understand why you're so upset. If you think RHCP is the downfall of society I can't begin to imagine what you think of Marilyn Manson, Metallica, Black Sabbath, Rage Against the Machine, etc.
@Suplexmachine oh Really... i bet you didnt even have any inkling of who Jimmy Webb was, Admit it dnt lie.You went an ggled Jimmy Webb, and now know your Peppers couldnt hold his jock as far a writting great melodic songs. The peppers represent all thats bad in this country. Cheap and dirty Cant Keep their clothes on , disgrace. And You mention that the rest of the band members are great players??SO WHAT, a lot of bands have great players. Its the kind of music the leave as their leggacy.
@jjs499 How old are you? I'm 29 but I'm getting the impression you're 13. Why do you say RHCP fills their songs with "violence"? You're extremely ignorant right now. I didn't know who Jimmy Webb was but I knew all the other artists you mentioned, and listen to them. I will now start listening to Webb also. Why are you so mad? RHCP has TONS of melodic songs. Listen to "Breaking the Girl", "This Velvet Glove", "Cabron", "Road Trippin", "My Friends", "Californication", "Snow (Hey Oh)", ETC
The guys who can't appreciate/don't know what punk funk is sound like old farts complaining here. This is for the funk freaks, strictly. Don't try to drain our energy
@pedrosobota afucking men! i am a huge pepper fan but also a huge dylan fan and i think it is to kpool that the peppers show love by putting there bown spin on a classic and keep it alive! ne 1 who dislikes it just vcant appreciate music for what it really is and thats just freedom of expression!
i don't understand the comparison between dylan and rhcp, dylan, writing this song, created the beginning of rap music. u prefer RH? no problem but realize how much this song is important sung by Bob
You cant really say whats better because the versions are so vastly different, dylans version is great, chili peppers version is great, end of story. theres no comparison.
To be honest i hear this version before i heard the original version and after my brain has been chilified it is hard to get in to the original Bob Dylan version. The chili definitely made it their own,
I'm an old-timer, and I admit it's taking some time to adjust to it, but it actually reminds me of FZ's covers of Hendrix and Zeppelin. Some humor, some style alteration to make it "theirs," and just enough "in yo face," to justify doing it in the first place. I think it'll grow on me, but it will NEVER replace the original.
Why all the haters? They made an own version of a song they love. The point of doing a cover isn´t to make it sound exactly like the original (like many coverbands think). They just recreated the song to fit their style better, not to dishonour bob.
And for those who doesn´t know this cover was made by the peppers on the uplift mofo party plan together with Hillel. So the cover was pretty old for them too at this point.
0:39 is my stolen move from Flea that i regularly do dancing :P
For those bitching about it how shit it is, we can at least settle on one axiom. RHCP took a song & tried to bring it into their own style rather than copy it and pass it off as a ''cover''.
Some covers owrk out some dont, its all opinions at the end of the day. & i as a fan of RHCP will love anything they put out 99% of the time
@grimwat yeah thats true. dylan made a folk song and the chili peppers made it into a funk song. to be honest i dont really like folk music. but i love funk! best genere out there in my opinon.

@jjs499 songs that will last the test of time: Californication (yes everyone knows it, even if you don't like it, and more will continue to hear about it), songs that have melodic value: I could have lied, Scar Tissue, Dani California, Otherside, Zephyr Song, i think you should really listen to some songs, before you make such a blatant assumption

Songs that will last test of time: Californication (yea, even if you don' like, it's been heard by tons of people, and will be continued to be heard by many more). Melodic Songs: Scar Tissue, Otherside, Zephyr Song, I Could have lied, Dani California, Snow (Hey Oh), and more. Should be more open minded and listen to more before making such a blatant assumption.

@vishalgulve Ill take the Dave Clark 5, CSN&Y< Kansas, Springsteen, [ O, crse the Beatles and Stones, Wings] Moody Blues, Chicago Transit Authority. You get the Picture. More moeodic and more great vocal harmony singing. THe way music or rock or whatever category TRHCP's are, and the bands u mentioned just changed with the times we are in angier times, thus angry , in your face, confrontational music, that is escalating with the anger and hate in the USA these days... hope u enjoy the HOF Crmny

I could care less, i dont listen to this garbage.... so Just enjoy it. Im outta here...anymore messages that show up, just know i delete w/out reading... go play in traffic....

@jjs499 Fine, continue to stay ignorant. I supplied you with many melodic, acoustic songs by the Chili Peppers and you're choosing to not listen to them. I've been nothing but nice to you the whole time, while you've been calling names and telling me to go play in traffic. You're absurd. I wonder if you speak to people the same face to face as you do on the internet? I'm coming off as the more logical, nice person and you're coming off as a bitter ignorant asshole. =) You're a music snob.

@jjs499 Here's some RHCP songs that are very well known and will stand the test of time: Under the Bridge, Give it Away, Breaking the Girl, My Friends, Californication, Scar Tissue, Otherside, Can't Stop, Zephyr Song, By the Way, Dani California, and I'm sure there's more...I don't understand why you're so upset. If you think RHCP is the downfall of society I can't begin to imagine what you think of Marilyn Manson, Metallica, Black Sabbath, Rage Against the Machine, etc.

@Suplexmachine oh Really... i bet you didnt even have any inkling of who Jimmy Webb was, Admit it dnt lie.You went an ggled Jimmy Webb, and now know your Peppers couldnt hold his jock as far a writting great melodic songs. The peppers represent all thats bad in this country. Cheap and dirty Cant Keep their clothes on , disgrace. And You mention that the rest of the band members are great players??SO WHAT, a lot of bands have great players. Its the kind of music the leave as their leggacy.

@jjs499 How old are you? I'm 29 but I'm getting the impression you're 13. Why do you say RHCP fills their songs with "violence"? You're extremely ignorant right now. I didn't know who Jimmy Webb was but I knew all the other artists you mentioned, and listen to them. I will now start listening to Webb also. Why are you so mad? RHCP has TONS of melodic songs. Listen to "Breaking the Girl", "This Velvet Glove", "Cabron", "Road Trippin", "My Friends", "Californication", "Snow (Hey Oh)", ETC

I'm an old-timer, and I admit it's taking some time to adjust to it, but it actually reminds me of FZ's covers of Hendrix and Zeppelin. Some humor, some style alteration to make it "theirs," and just enough "in yo face," to justify doing it in the first place. I think it'll grow on me, but it will NEVER replace the original.

Why all the haters? They made an own version of a song they love. The point of doing a cover isn´t to make it sound exactly like the original (like many coverbands think). They just recreated the song to fit their style better, not to dishonour bob.
And for those who doesn´t know this cover was made by the peppers on the uplift mofo party plan together with Hillel. So the cover was pretty old for them too at this point.

0:39 is my stolen move from Flea that i regularly do dancing :P
For those bitching about it how shit it is, we can at least settle on one axiom. RHCP took a song & tried to bring it into their own style rather than copy it and pass it off as a ''cover''.
Some covers owrk out some dont, its all opinions at the end of the day. & i as a fan of RHCP will love anything they put out 99% of the time

Well, its different anyway. When Dylan came out with this it was really something new -
He's one of the most covered artists in the world, and my guess is he'd be happy enough with this one.
