Their early years idealized the LA punk funk scene and their album Blood Sugar Sex Magic, a fantastic album, broke through to the mainstream, and since then they’ve taken on a more alternative sound but still as fresh as ever. Their new album is coming out soon
You know Red Hot Chili Peppers really created their own unique sound and vibe. They didn't chase anyone on the radio - they set their own path with their own music their own way. Made them one of my favorite bands of the 90s. To me, this video is just a play on some general themes like maybe some escaped criminals injured driving thru the desert without a destination in mind. Just creates a mysterious backdrop to the amazing music and lyrics of this song. I don't think the video is a step-by-step explanation of the song - but it's just specific yet far out enough and vague enough to put your own imagination into it. I love the way it was shot on the film for sure.
Red Hot Chili Peppers are sooo great!! 🌶 ♥ Suck My Kiss, Can't Stop, Give it Away, By the Way, Get on Top. I could keep going but this is a great start to their Discography!! Enjoy 🤘🤘
@@Egoblivion I believe the bullying part is from Anthony's own experience as a kid getting bullied, specifically by Dave Navarro ( crazy, right?) And I think the drugs and self harm was one of the other bandmates witnessing a young womans life spiraling out of control. I think the scar tissue is a result of the scars we bare from tough times in the past.
These guys have such a great vibe. I always find myself rocken to the beat. Its the So Cal chill thing. Dark Necessities is a good one. Thanks James for playing one from our homies up the I-5
"I'll make it to the moon if I have to crawl" is my absolute favorite line. It speaks to me. It's basically saying I'll make it to the top or make it through this no matter what! Even if I have to crawl to get through this pain...
The video shows their wounds on the outside, but the song is about their wounds on the inside. Remember, it's scar tissue "that i wish you saw," meaning that it's in the soul. "With birds i'll share this lonely view" suggests a feeling of being remote and distant from humankind, as though no-one could possibly understand who you are, growing up almost feral; sit in a tree with birds and watch the world go by. The video externalizes their pain and hard times in the bleak broken-down desert of their traumatized souls, but they keep on pushing through.
Some of their good songs..."Suck My Kiss", "By The Way", "Other Side", "Give It Away", "Californication", "Higher Ground", "Love Rollercoaster", Soul To Squeeze" - my personal favorite of theirs...."My Friends", "Aeroplane"...
This was their gradual shift from a real hard punk-alternative to a more hard rock-pop style. To really hear them cut lose, plus a cool video, try “Dani California”. It’s like a rock history lesson and it builds to an all out jam.
You have to try out Queens of the Stone Age they're a heavier rock band but their music is so unique and amazing from album to album and sometimes the songs, for ur first time I'd definitely check out their song No One Knows, I promise u won't be disappointed
I appreciate your analysis of so many of the songs I grew up with and love to this day. I am glad you are experiencing them as well. Keep up the great work!
There were lots... Otherside, californication, give it away, higher ground... Even tveir very first one I really lijed in 1991 called Fight like a brave... Then tbey just kept getting better for 20 years...
Love this band! I always love groups that stretch the normal.... unique sound, not anyone that sounds like them. Several great songs people listed... all are good. The bass players name is Flea... check some of his solos..... they are great!
RHCP have one of the greatest bassist and guitarist in all of rock music. I suggest my favorite song, Snow, as well as Can't Stop, Otherside, Give it Away, Tell Me Baby, Dani California, and By The Way. Their (usual) guitar player John Frusciante has a great solo tune called Going Inside.
Hey...I hope you are well. Thank you for your positivity. It means a lot. I've been listening to RHCP since I was 11. I'm now 43. Flea is the funkiest bass player in this galaxy. John is so soulful on lead, Chad kills the drums and Anthony has so many styles of singing. " Blood Sugar Sex Magic" he sounds like an animal..." Give it away" he raps and flows...along with many other songs."Suck my kiss " is just fun and naughty. "Sir psycho sexy " well...he tells a hot female cop to suck his ahhhhmmm and such. "Aeroplane" is one of my favorites...because I like pleasure spiked with pain and music is my aeroplane. Watch some of their concerts. Their energy is ridiculous.
Just found this channel, and had a big binge session. Keep up the great work. Also, Red Light spells danger by Billy Ocean would be a great song to see you react to.
More RHCP - Snow, Dark Necessities, The Adventures Of Rain Dance Maggie, Soul To Squeeze, Look Around, Sick Love, Brendan's Death Song, Monarchy Of Roses, The Zephyr Song and Around The World.
good music and group im called musical snob by wife cos not into pop music. gad bless u cos u make me smile. it is a struggle now on day 187 of wife on ventilator
Simply Red: Something Got Me Started Simply Red: Holding Back the Years You could also compare Simply Red's version of If You Don't Know Me By Now to the original by Melvin Howard and the Blue Notes.
Its about their reunion with John. Scar tissue that I wish you saw. Anthony and John were best friends for 4 years but then they grew apart because John didn’t want the level of fame they aquired. So they broke up and John developed a catastrophic heroin habit. After 8 years they came in touch again. Sarcastic mr know it all, close your eyes and ill kiss you, with birds I’ll share this lonely view. They were always a very sarcastic band and in the beginning a bit toxic, everyone with a big ego and all drug maniacs. Anthony and John used to kiss each other on the lips as a sign of affection. That’s like stop all the unreal shit and just come to my heart man, kiss me and give me your love. And sorry for all the hurting. Its really about forgiveness for each other. Although they are very scared. And you know, sometimes you just want to let the other person know how much they hurt you, „that I wish you saw“, but you have to forgive. That’s why they are all so scared up in the video. John is also driving the car as a symbol of his coming back to the band (fun fact he doesn’t have a drivers lisence). Soft spoken with a broken jaw, step outside but not to brawl. Yes they hurt each other so hard. But it’s forgiving again. That saying hey you hurt me so much but I love you, let’s make this work again, sorry for everything that happend. This was one of the first Songs they wrote in fleas garage after John rejoined. In his book Anthony tells the story. Something like: „ It was so magical to reconnect with John again, on a loving and on a musical level. They made the instrumental and we recorded it on tape. I took my Walkman and walked in the park on that beautiful sunny day. I looked at the sky and saw the birds flying together. I wrote the complete song in one take, it was like opening a window.“ I think you really hear in the guitar riff that hurt, that forgiveness, that hug after you fight and cry because you love each other. Beautiful song, beautiful story, beautiful souls. During his addiction John was also on the verge of dying. That was especially painful to watch because their best fried and original guitar player hillel slovak died age 26 because of an heroin overdose. John was 18 when he joined the band, the other 3 almost in their 30s. So he was also the baby of the band.
Hey man I think something that would be cool to see you react to is Paradise by the Dashboard Light by Meatloaf. Tells an awesome story with a little of everything, think it would be an awesome reaction.
Red Hot Chilli Pepper songs: Dani California, Californication, Blood Sugar Sex Magik, Aeroplane, Rollercoster, Give it away. Don't forget Weird Al Yankovic's parody of Under the Bridge and Give it Away: Bedrock Anthem.
Hey can you react to Hal Ketchum either Hearts are gonna roll or Small town Saturday night or Mama knows the highway he just passed away from dementia at the age of 67.
Please react to; Breaking the girl (official video) Soul to squeeze Give it away Higher Ground (Stevie Wonder cover) Each one unique and different. Thanks
You have to try queens of the stone age, some of their stuff is a bit have but damn is it good, a good first song would be No One knows, you won't regret it😁
Dear Rome, can you maybe react to The Last In Line from Dio? Believe me, you won't regret it. Would be awesome, thanks. Have a great day and all the other Rome fans aswell.
RHCP has so many amazing songs. Give it away, Californication, Can't stop, etc
Can't Stop (Official music video) FTW.
Yeah, especially etc is my favorite
Snow is probs my fav from them
Their early years idealized the LA punk funk scene and their album Blood Sugar Sex Magic, a fantastic album, broke through to the mainstream, and since then they’ve taken on a more alternative sound but still as fresh as ever. Their new album is coming out soon

Yess!!! Love the RHCP so much!!! I recommend “Can't Stop” by them 🤘
Give it Away is an early classic from the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
IMO, GIA is one of the funkiest songs ever written!
They did a cover of a Stevie Wonder song called "Higher Ground" that is epic. If you want a song nobody has covered try "Sir Psycho Sexy."
The have been a few reactions to SPS, but not many! ❤️
Flea awesome guitar player......band always been a strong band....ya picked a great song!!!! CALIFORNICATION
Can't Stop ,my favorite RHCP'S song. 🦋✌🦋
Gotta do Red Hot Chili Peppers - Snow !!! My ALL time favorite!!!
Yes my friend Snow all the way!
Red Hot Chili Peppers are sooo great!! 🌶 ♥
Suck My Kiss, Can't Stop, Give it Away, By the Way, Get on Top. I could keep going but this is a great start to their Discography!! Enjoy 🤘🤘
The second verse, when he talks about the blood loss in the bathroom stall, that part really connects to me
Ewwwww , tmi ! Lol
I believe Scartissue is about pain.. from drug addiction to bullying, etc
More specifically though, the aftermath and trying to heal...?
@@Egoblivion I believe the bullying part is from Anthony's own experience as a kid getting bullied, specifically by Dave Navarro ( crazy, right?) And I think the drugs and self harm was one of the other bandmates witnessing a young womans life spiraling out of control.

Yea it’s about his heroin addiction
One off the top of my head by them is Can’t Stop. Very good! 💕
CANT STOP BY RHCP!!
Dark Necessities is one of my favorite of theirs.
Yeah good luck with that request. You are the only other person who I've seen request it. I have requested at least 20 x.
I'm tellin ya, Pentatonix "Hallelujah" will bring you to tears!!
Californication by Red Hot Chilli Peppers is a good one!
Already did
These guys have such a great vibe. I always find myself rocken to the beat. Its the So Cal chill thing.
Dark Necessities is a good one. Thanks James for playing one from our homies up the I-5
Yoo, react to Sledgehammer by Peter Gabriel, one of the best songs ever written in my opinion, the bass in that song is f*cking awesome!!
Can't stop......... One of their best.
With the bird shaped shades it's lovely view. Great lyric.
ZZ TOP live from Texas doing “just got paid” is some of the best guitar work you will ever see
I'm continually astounded by the number of absolute global bangers you've never heard of before!
Heart - "Magic Man" studio version
"I'll make it to the moon if I have to crawl" is my absolute favorite line. It speaks to me. It's basically saying I'll make it to the top or make it through this no matter what! Even if I have to crawl to get through this pain...

Great interperetation
Best breakdown of the video I have heard yet.
Some of their good songs..."Suck My Kiss", "By The Way", "Other Side", "Give It Away", "Californication", "Higher Ground", "Love Rollercoaster", Soul To Squeeze" - my personal favorite of theirs...."My Friends", "Aeroplane"...
Classic.
Gotta check out Soul to squeeze by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Motley Crue... Kickstart My Heart Baby!!!
This was their gradual shift from a real hard punk-alternative to a more hard rock-pop style. To really hear them cut lose, plus a cool video, try “Dani California”. It’s like a rock history lesson and it builds to an all out jam.

Gotta say the official video for 'Can't Stop' should be the next on the list. Deep lyrics, cool video.
My favorite RHCP song is Under The Bridge.

Aeroplane! I promise everyone will love it 😘
That was my suggestion too!
Like the honesty. Keep it real
Thom yorke credits the dry guitar tone from scar tissue to be his influence for radiohead's reckoner. You'd like it
Yes! So happy you did another RHCP! Check out Scar Tissue and Californication.
Wet Sand is my favorite of theirs! 🥺✨🤟

I'd love to hear your thoughts on 'Dark Necessities.'
Still waiting for Gerry Rafferty’s live jam “Get it Right next time”, no ones done this song, and its one cool banger, trust me.
Breaking the girl by RHCP!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
Californication is one of the best albums ever made.
Red Hot Chilli Pepper songs: Dani California, Californication, Blood Sugar Sex Magik, Aeroplane, Rollercoster, Give it away. Don't forget Weird Al Yankovic's parody of Under the Bridge and Give it Away: Bedrock Anthem.
I would love it if you reacted to Rare Americans - Brittle Bones Nicky.
Another good RHCP song you'd like is "Dani California"
Under the bridge is a good one
I really like the song Snow (Heyo) by RHCP
you gotta check "Snow" by RHCP. great groove.
John Frusciante is a guitar genius.
SO many great songs, but "Give It Away", "The Adventures Of Rain Dance Maggie", & "Hump De Bump" will funk your socks off!
