Everytime I have a bad day, I listen to their songs and the feeling is just hard to explain :) And I don't understand how the f*ck can you dislike their songs....
you serious? thats really that last any one should say about thier music, take apart the metaphoric language in the lyrics and its like reading a story... R.H.C.P<3
The lyrics aren't random but meant to induce an emotional response. They both (John & Anthony write very metaphorically and Anthony, in fact, was an English major at my Alma Mater, UCLA. He's trying to show you how he's feeling by singing out "analogous illustrations" of aspects of his life. Try listening to a line and thinking about how that seemingly random line affects your mood. Then do that for the rest of the song and feel how his lines dictate the dynamics of the entire song. He's genius.
Good tune-but people-why think that-if any song is very popular-it's already bad and shit? f.example - Snow. some people say- ouu it's shit because it's pop!! shittt - snow is so popular because-it's there really best song- californication is popular 'cos it's also best.. Nothing else matters is popular ' cos it's their best..sairway to heaven...yesterday...soldier of fortun..and so on...are you understand??? very well
@Tarmac118 The lyrics aren't random. He write lyrics about stuff he's experienced. These lyrics are just about the least random lyrics he's wrote. Listen to Stranded if you want to see random. It's really funny though. I have it uploaded.
@Tarmac118 The one thing about RHCP is that their lyrics are to be interpreted uniquely by every person. They mean different things for everyone. For some they console and for others it justifies. It's all about what it means to YOU.
whyyyy do i like RHCP so much? by far the greatest band of all time. there is no other band that can make me feel the emotion of the songs. RHCP for life!
this song is so underrated and is so hard to find thx to snow hey oh. dont get me wrong i love snow hey oh but i personally think this is a much better song
when I was going thur some weird stuff this time last year unemployed......all the years don't add up to nothng I listened to tis song incessantly over and over while making pasta barely holding on. I could hear someone in my building cracking their door to take a listen. A break from whatever their lives were doing.
@filipdusper1 ...not to effend you or anything, but I could say "Linkin Park is by far the best band if you're a fan you know what I'm saying." (any fan of anything will very often say that what they are fan of is the best.)
I love all thee music and the album Stadium Arcadium is my favorite! it just has EVERYTHING, hard rockish, smooth, jazz, soulful, intense and sweet sounding shit, Damn, they are the best band with many of the best albums ever!
well in that kind of sense i found that to describe more of jupiter, especially the song hump de bump, haha that song like defines that description my friend :)
Interesting how this song has so few views as compared with their others from same album. This definetly isnt for everyone, and most of the chili peppers "casual listeners" would definetly skip this one, but for all the frusciante fans out there this is definetly one of the highlights of the album, especially the solo, one of the best he has written.
Im am RHCP "casual" listeners and this song got me at the very intro..so...simple yet...good? idk what the lyrics are about but this intro makes me feel good
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
stadium arcadium may be good..... but nothing close or alike blood sugar sex magic or one hot minute or californication.... if u compare this one with the others .... c0c0 is wright
I know 'em since Mothers Milk. That they evolved = very true, but i cant stop loving the groove/energy they keep on generating (+ Frusciante: great player/singer & composer)
u cant copmare SA to BSSM or One Hot Minute(which is fine but probably they're wrost album)...BSSM is funky album, Cali, BTW and SA are much more melodic. they evolved as a band
I just thought it was to much of the same element, a lot of songs starting out differently but breaking down in the same way in a ballad like sense. If they would have compressed it more it would have been a lot better. Theyve been my favorite band since 03, cant wait for the new album.
Unfortunately this album is perceived to be lesser than those that came before it: Californication and BSSM. However, this album proves to be experimental for the band, looking back at where they came from. Songs such as "Hey", "We Believe", "If", "Hard to Concentrate" reveal true musician intelligence, and maturity, this band never brought to the forefront until now, which makes them amazing artists.
you talk shit about the chilis. how can you say that this is a shit album? no band can make the same kind of music through all through their careers. the change that exists in stadium arcadium when compared to bloody sugar or by the way, show the way the chilis have evolved. every band evolves through time. and if you can appreciate the change, it shows you're not a true fan
thank ya. i dont know if he used it in scar tissue i can play that without it and it sounds just the same. this song is just fuckin' hard playing without a slide. but then again, he's one of the beastiest guiarists of all time so he can prolly play it easy as hell with or without one, with his eyes closed, lol
i have a both cd's of stadium arcadium and in the summer i go out on the hamok and light the tiki- torches and listen to it on my radio while i drink a bottle of code red mt.dew HELL~sometimes my neighbors comes over and i sit him up a lawn chair and we have a good ol'time
