The RHCP were already a well established group when John joined the band. Frusciante added a fresh new layer with his style that had a lot of Jimi Hendrix influences that meshed really well with that funk rock sound
3 years late lmao but ure 100% right in this day and age he'd be a model. its funny how he went through alotta look phases during this time tho. he probably changed his hair atleast 100 times within a few months
Yes! I noticed right away. As a bass player it sucks when you're really jamming out when you're sitting and your strap starts falling and there's nothing you can do about it... I FELT relieved when he put back up lol
1:49 Flea tries to stand but can’t since bass strap was falling off...but fellow band brother noticed and helped the situation...loved it ! Great song btw !
@@psyched3lictoad240 top 10 would put you as "one" of the "top" guitarists alive. If you were a university in the Top 100 on the planet, you would be a top university. There are a lot more than 100 guitarists in the world.
yeah, and its not plagiarism. crazy town and rhcp were friends and rhcp said like yeah u can have it, and then crazy town wrote butterfly. they didnt rip them off.
You know, after looking at the comments, I'm beginning to think that I stumbled upon an Idiot Convention. You have people saying that this is Josh not John. You have people claiming that RHCP ripped this off of Butterfly by Crazy Town....a song that came out a decade later. Do you people think before you type or is that too much work for you?
I can't tell you the love that i feel in this song... it's awesome... 4 different people coming together on the same notion which can't be said in words. Notice, no lyrics. Just the love emminating from the instruments by two of the worlds greatest! RHCP baby!
Best guitarist of my generation guy got as close to death as one can get and the chillys saved the mans life at the last second now we get real talk from the guitar that plays John
I'm so happy I stumbled upon this. There is a live performance that was done by Mike Portnoy, Billy Sheehan, Tony Mcalpine, and Derek Sherinian did in Japan where I caught a similar moment. Before I had any context, it got by me and I never would have thought twice. But there is a moment in the Acid Rain/A Change of Seasons video where Tony forgot to come in at a certain spot, this was due to starting treatment a short time prior to that night. In that moment he was disoriented, out of it just standing there, and he missed his mark to come in. Without skipping a beat, and the camera happened to be on Portnoy, but you can see him immediately pick up on it and he gets Tony's attention and counts him back in. It was really remarkable.
cynths writer Exactly, it was more a matter of time than anything else. I mean, they have to pull everything out, perform, then put it all back in what, like 30 minutes? Less? It's less that they are even worried they'll mess up, or whatever, it's all about time.
Is no one gonna talk about his pedal setup? Ds2 (probably) a wah, and two others I can't make out. Crazy how it went from four pedals taped to the stage to the stadium arcadium rig
Either way people. Anthony said they don't play with pre-recorded music, and then they did. Yea, people change, yada yada yada. All that jazz. Whatever the statement is still amusing based on recent events. And frankly, RHCP aren't what they used to be. No matter what Anthony said in this video.
It's funny that there are other videos of this song and the same thing happens; when Flea needs to get up, AK goes there and adjusts the bass strap so he can stand up. Look it up, and you'll see.
Two of those riffs inspired crazy town in butterfly and the following of that riff was used by Slightly stoopid in a song they made also. Inspiration band
At the time John was 18 and he wrote such a beautiful lick that made an entire band career ten years later
Crazytown are living off RHCP.
Oh John
The RHCP were already a well established group when John joined the band. Frusciante added a fresh new layer with his style that had a lot of Jimi Hendrix influences that meshed really well with that funk rock sound
🤣🤦
@@mookX92 yeah and? Whats that got to do with some shit nu metal one hit wonder that sampled this?
2 minutes of rhcp, whole career of crazy town
jonky puff 😂
Hahaha
That's so rude. 😂
*2 minutes of john frusciante
1:26-1:35 like 9 seconds...
Never have I seen two band members with more musical chemistry than John and Flea
Justin Crawford Thom and greenwood
Isaac Brock And Eric Judy
Mili Vanilli?
slash and duff
B E A T L E S
Man what a life these guys have lived, can't imagine the feeling of thousands of people paying to watch you perform.
I find that really cool
Onlyfans: hold my beer
Don’t forget all the kids they raped!
OK but John at this period will forever be the most beautiful face I've seen... Like literally.
3 years late lmao but ure 100% right in this day and age he'd be a model. its funny how he went through alotta look phases during this time tho. he probably changed his hair atleast 100 times within a few months
I thought it was beautiful the way Anthony jumps in and adjusts Flea's bass strap so that he could stand at 1:52 :)
Family, brothers, bestfriends, partners, soulmates.
They are the best friends ever
Yes! I noticed right away.
As a bass player it sucks when you're really jamming out when you're sitting and your strap starts falling and there's nothing you can do about it... I FELT relieved when he put back up lol
Just noticed how he ran through John to get to him... no wonder John wanted to quit the band so bad lol
Loved that!!
They're in tune enough for the 60's
It hurts
LMAO
I'll take it over pre-recorded stuff anyday.
😂😂😂👍🏻
I'm don't understand music that well. Can you please explain why/what you mean?
I love Pretty Little Ditty. It's also like a bonding moment between Flea and John.
I love Pretty Little Ditty as well, My grandmother also likes to fuck to it
@@BlasphemousVerses my grandmother is also about 89 years old
Isn't every song tho?
It was John’s favorite moment, especially at this time because he couldn’t stand the clown that Anthony was.
@@CrashHellWhen did he say that?
1:49 Flea tries to stand but can’t since bass strap was falling off...but fellow band brother noticed and helped the situation...loved it ! Great song btw !
Heartwarming 😊
Dude, hes probs one of the best guitarists alive
Not even close.

Where is Keith Richards in all this goat debate?
Why i am listening butterfly from crazy town? They ripped from here?? Explain me
1:50 how anthony help´s flea hahaha
haha and he bumps john who's like dude wtf. gotta love young chili peppers
and then flea looks like 'what the fuck, you're right i should be jamming'
Once John helped Flea with the strap, he did it with his foot - while they played Pretty Little Ditty :D
@@annedworak7855 true think it was 1990 in kawasaki
Its like a little brother finally helping him Big brother in something xD
I sincerely believe that John, Flea and Chad should join to make instrumental albums.
It would be even cooler with Anthony’s lyrics
Yea look at how crazy town turned this into a top hit with lyrics
Check John’s solo album ‘Shadows collide with themselves’
…the trio has already happened
@@joemamma9934 so... if they were... red hot chili peppers?
@@sickgiirl 6 months later lol yes
John is 20 years old in this video
+Emre Erdem He looks really gorgeous
+Elderrunes he sounds gorgeous
+Lucas Baxter he plays gorgeous
+sarp deniz yes
barley touched by opiates at this point. He is still amazing today, but there could have been a little extra oomph in his name i think.
I was a just a kid but the 90's feels like a different planet.
me too. I was 2 when this was performed. I remember bits of the early 90s, but not enough.
Chad is such a troll with that quick peak
Loved that shot
I love John Frusciante
+Martin Frajer The almighty FROOSH! FROOSH IS GOD.
Who doesn't??
Me too
No shit?!
@@barrymoore7445 he killed river phoenix. I don't give a shit but want to point it out.
1:25 , now I know the truth about Crazy town's Butterfly...
+Naruto Uzumaki that's what I was trying to say
haha crazy
hahaha Same here!
OMFG!! Is Butterfly's main tune really created by Frusciante too??!?! =)
yeah, and its not plagiarism. crazy town and rhcp were friends and rhcp said like yeah u can have it, and then crazy town wrote butterfly. they didnt rip them off.

BigBad Bryant My favorite is people saying it is Hillel. He passed two years before this came out. Morons!
BigBad Bryant John surprisingly does look a lot like Josh in this vid though.
I love you :-)
They gave it to them.... Think Crazy Town had some sort of family connection to Anthony Kiedis.....
Wait a second here,who said its Josh ? :D :D
Anthony dancing at 0:47 lol
Now I know where Will Smith got some of his dance moves from
Every time I feel lost in my guitar journey, I watch any video with John Frusciante and it always gives me inspiration ;D
John Frusciante and Flea are magic!
I can't tell you the love that i feel in this song... it's awesome... 4 different people coming together on the same notion which can't be said in words. Notice, no lyrics. Just the love emminating from the instruments by two of the worlds greatest! RHCP baby!
who’s here after Frusciante came back
Anyone know when the new chili peppers album is coming out?
Which time
OMGGGG.. how could somebody "dislike" this music. It's like nature's sound, SO MUCH BEAUTIFUL. This song is nothin' but Pretty Little Ditty.
Flea: Tunes his bass
Bass: Out of tune
It's sad how a band's one hit wonder is nothing but another band's random jam...
hahahaha yeah
Then you know how good they are. John was 19!!!
ones trash is another's treasure.
Because pretty much all popular rock music that came out after 1995 has been lame soulless unoriginal garbage.
if your thinking of butterfly that was after this
Best bass line of all time 1:26
Listen to Leverage of Space by the chili peppers! Not the best but is amazing.
Crazy Town stole that riff for Butterfly I swear
Yeah, if only it was in tune
This vibe. This time. WOW.
Best guitarist of my generation guy got as close to death as one can get and the chillys saved the mans life at the last second now we get real talk from the guitar that plays John
Young Frusciante killing It since the first moment
1:13 Anthony is the only person in the world that looks good doing those dance moves
When I dance like that I look ridiculous! 🤣🤣
I think he looks like an idiot personally.
More like Anthony's interpretive dance solo.
i tell you the reathon he tuneth hith guitar ith becauthe we don't play with pre-recoreded muthik.
r u indienth?
Thanks Mike, great take!
Young chili peppers are like the Teenage mutant ninja turtles. I don’t know why.
why is that so accurate
Haha hilarious....well I love them both....so question then @metalizedbutt which turtle is which chili pepper, in your opinion? lol
@Blitz K yep cuz chad holds 2 drumsticks and raph holds 2 sais
@Blitz K i thought that Anthony would be Raph.
Even more so when Hillel and Jack were in the band...
There's another live clip of this song in '90 where John flips fleas bass strap up with his foot so he can stand up . So awsome
Kawasaki 1990
Probably one of the best thing that ever happened in the history of recorded music on video?
I'm so happy I stumbled upon this. There is a live performance that was done by Mike Portnoy, Billy Sheehan, Tony Mcalpine, and Derek Sherinian did in Japan where I caught a similar moment.

"He tunes his guitar bc we don't play with prerecorded music" .. young world, this was the 90s😎
I can listen to this band all day
john is sooo gorgeous!
I love the whole bands chemistry, Anthony readjusted Flea's strap without being asked
Welcome back John
Just saw the incredible news you’re coming back
Flea is such a beast! but really he is a nice person! That is what art really is!
Aguante frusciante locoooooo lo amo la puta madre se me pone la piel de gallina cada vez que pienso que vuelve. Seamos felices y disfrutemos esto
Aguanteee!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Vengo del futuro, volviooooo 🔥🔥
I come back here every couple of months just to be happy 😃
they are musically connected to all the other music I love. it's incredible.
Awww, John was so little and adorable!
Gosh, they were all so handsome....still are.
I can loop this all day and feel happy :)
Flea's bassline is so goddamn tasty... thst bassline alone can be on a loop for hours
I love how Anthony at 1:53 helps Flea to get his bass strap right so he can get up and play with John
This is why John keeps coming back to the band.
You'll never know what the original comment was.
every person know that but is a good coment
know*
no shit
crazy town took part of the second segment of the song to add it to their song 'butterfly'
crazy town stoled a part of guitar solos and made it as main riff for their shitty butterfly song in 1998
John young and John now has a big difference in looks. Can't believe this is how good he looked when he was young.
Such an amazing band ❤️
Rappers steal everything.
Crazy town first album is great.
Rhcp are amazing
John Frusciante un genio de la guitarra!!!!!!! El mejor. 💪👏👈🎵🔮 Desde Argentina Bs.As.... Aguante RHCP 17-4-21
1:49 What a nice little moment.
what a duo those two are.......... glad it was in my lifetime
Ooooh ... oh my God ... it's so so simple beutiful ! ! ! Grettings from Belgrade-city,SERBIA !
PEACE,LOVE,EMPHATY 4 ALL YAA ! MILAN.M.
I feel like this song is a taste of things to come for them at that time in their career.
Can we jut appreciate that a lick that Flea and John just knocked together in a few minutes made the entire career of another band?
1:50 how anthony help´s flea hahaha
haha and he bumps john who's like dude wtf. gotta love young chili peppers
pre-recorded music, well that was the case at the 2014 Superbowl, love this band!
That wasn't their decision, though. The NFL basically made them. They didn't hide it, and were very open about it.
anthony still sang live. NFL rule- all bands pre-recorded because it takes a long time to set-up
cynths writer Exactly, it was more a matter of time than anything else. I mean, they have to pull everything out, perform, then put it all back in what, like 30 minutes? Less? It's less that they are even worried they'll mess up, or whatever, it's all about time.
I wasn't yet born when this magic was going on 😭
Same... :c it really sucks. Anthony be looking hot as well 😏
Good God
take me back to those days...
Frusciante's tone in this is perfect to me, a clean, rosewood strat
This combo of the peppers was the best.... no doubt
I love how much this band matured and still sounds awesome :)
It's a shame the video is so short because it's gorgeous.
this is my my fav track from mothers milk and its only like a minute and a half long
Damn ..how did I get so old..😔 so glad to have lived those days first hand
Sad that today we dont have a lot of fresh rock concerts
the guys doin what they do best!!
this is definitely a love making song
i watch this video when ever i'm sad because it makes me so happy
1:53 lovely how Anthony helps flea
Flea is so elated to have his friends playin for the team
absolutely beautiful
the 90s were a great time
Is no one gonna talk about his pedal setup? Ds2 (probably) a wah, and two others I can't make out. Crazy how it went from four pedals taped to the stage to the stadium arcadium rig
There needs to be more instrumental songs like this
Flea and the bass strap during this song. every fucking time
24 years later an they play the Superbowl with pre-recorded music.
they had to unfortunately, NFL policy
Because otherwise they weren't allowed to play. And they wrote on their website that they did becUse they didn't want to lie.
Aaron Marshall They dint have to, no one forced them to play.
loupwn marx They talked with other bands about it (Foo Fighters etc.) and they said they would do it, even if it was pre-recorded. :)
Either way people. Anthony said they don't play with pre-recorded music, and then they did. Yea, people change, yada yada yada. All that jazz. Whatever the statement is still amusing based on recent events. And frankly, RHCP aren't what they used to be. No matter what Anthony said in this video.

The early 2000's song "Come my lady (butterfly)" samples the riff from this jam
Yes, we know.
XD
no shit sherlock
John, Im so glad you made it.
johns is such an awesome guitar player.. i feel like when he came back with californication he really simplified his playing, but it was still great
Thank you Anthony for that story
2:09 classic rhcp moment
2024 now…. 34 Fukn Years ago!! 🤯
Anthony at 1:52 is why I think RHCP is the best band ever
probably one of the coolest things ive ever seen.
1:25 thats what youre here for
*Nahhh... I'm here for **0:43*
That's right :)
Actually im here for the whole thing 😀
Im here for 0:45 ;)
Two of those riffs inspired crazy town in butterfly and the following of that riff was used by Slightly stoopid in a song they made also. Inspiration band
wtf Butterfly riff 8 years early lol? Crazy Town, you got some a-splainin to do!
It was just the riff, JUST THE RIFF!
Insane
Crazy town made s career of that riff 👌
young John
What a heart-melting story was that about granny D :D
because a few moments of John Frusciante guitar noodling brilliance, is enough for a lesser band to damn near build a career out of.
john was 20 years old here, he looks so young and without any scars on his body. but besides this i love him how he was, is and will be...
