@@conorsmith8551I totally forgot that this song was inspired by Carnage Visors. The guitar sounds like Simon's bass line, the bass sounds like Robert's bass VI and vice versa at times here. Pretty cool.
This is actually a weirdly useful lesson for someone that might not understand interplays between bass and guitar! I honestly didn’t totally get it for a little while. I never played bass much for a while and always focused on guitar and piano and learning even a few little songs later helped me realize how ridiculously simple most bass parts are. It’s gotta hold it down! This was fun and funny lol🎉
In this sense, the bass is the same as Carnage Visors by The Cure, even John Frusciante admitted that he was inspired by this song, you can hear it at minute 4:30 of The Cure's song
Funny enough when I first heard this song I actually thought that Flea’s bass part at the beginning was part of Frusciante’s riff and that was how I learned it
Sir, have dug this song since i was 13. My brothers unknowingly turned me on to what inspired me to Humble Pie, Zep, Rush, 10cc, Bowie and the Spiders from Mars, and so many amazing musicians. It's probably a secret, but what tuning are you in? But can you share the brilliance of your amazing cover of You're so good to me.
The reason this works so well is because Flea plays the bass as a leading instrument instead of just spamming the bass note of whatever chord the guitar is playing.
I was only listening and couldn't figure out what was going on. All the notes are there, but it sounds so different. I looked at my screen like "ooooh" 😂
I kinda did it with my old band live back in 2016 on our debut concert :) Unfortunately there is no good quality recording. If you're curious, there's potato footage here: ruclips.net/video/XvmNgokj4Bk/видео.htmlsi=45ONuPRLPbiMI7NR&t=450
Any suggestion on other songs with this concept that would be fun? 😀 Comment your suggestion and I’ll see which one that gets most thumbs up. :)
Scar tissue would be dope
'If' or 'Fortune faded'.
Aquatic Mouth Dance, Give It Away, Around The World
Cant stop...
This is the place
Now we need the singer beatboxing and the drummer doing the melody
...on church bells 😊
😂
Would be better actually
xd
Bruh, my guy even switched finger with the pick lol💀
💀
The bass was played with pick too on the original. I think
@@DaffierPig6843Flea would NEVER
@DaffierPig6843 flea has Never played with a pick
He does, Parallel Universe for example @@dixiemcgee8535
Around the world would be curious...
i had the same thought lmao
Snow (Hey Oh) would be peculiar
@SBSP02 GOOD ONE 🤯
You're bi-curious?
We could make time
When you play guitar and bass but never bothered to learn which one’s which
xD
Sounds like their opening jams to the song when they play it live
my exact thought
Dude, I thought this video was 14 years old. I had no idea people were still making gold like this these days.
this is such a bizarre but unique sound. hearing a bass guitar strummed like a rhythm guitar is doing really weird but nice things to my brain
look into Primus then
Sounds more The Cure haha
@9DB7Bassman i love primus, i hadnt actually heard the resemblance until you said this
@@conorsmith8551I was thinking the same.
@@conorsmith8551I totally forgot that this song was inspired by Carnage Visors. The guitar sounds like Simon's bass line, the bass sounds like Robert's bass VI and vice versa at times here. Pretty cool.
Sounds like soul to squeeze and otherside combined.
I’m liking these “switched” videos. Gives me inspiration to record some of my songs again
I never knew how eerie the bass part for the Californication solo was till i learned it on bass. Idk how it slipped through me for so long

That Gretsch looks stunning!
"Otherside"
This
yes
The Slane Castle Californication jam would be cool
that bass is beautiful

Nice Flea bass. Played it. Incredible tone
Interesting concept!
This is strangely beautiful.
I always wondered about this song. Thank you!
Very interesting experiment!
Really unique and interesting idea. Keep it up!
Guitar solos always sound so raw on bass🤘🏿
Love these videos! It's crazy how good it sounds!
love the road worn flea bass
Like it very much! Sounds Funny and classy
This was very good. It came to me when the solo began really.
Everytime I see you play your Gretsch I'm happy :D
It gives it more of a somber feel playing it like this.
nice work man!!
Thank you! :)
I really like how that sounds actually
I like the touch of even switching the pick and fingestyle on them
beautiful guitars
that was genuinely amazing!
ótima iniciativa!
Its definitely more somber. Really cool stuff!
It's just shows, how great Flea is and how essential for the band's sound
The strumming of the bass reminds me of that clip of John on bass while Flea was playing Trumpet!
wow that so awesome!!
Solo turned out very interesting!
Isso é tão diferente e, ainda assim, ficou incrível
Why does this work so well?
Now, Snow in bass
Wow great performance 👏👏👏
I love it!
Goodbye Angels would be interesting. Specially the ending bass solo
even the fingers at the guitar lol
Goofy as hell, loved it!
Can’t stop
Infinitely better than the song we got.
great
Really interesting!
Parallel Universe would be fascinating
I thought the same ahahahahah
Funny enough when I first heard this song I actually thought that Flea’s bass part at the beginning was part of Frusciante’s riff and that was how I learned it
Sounds like a Pinback cover of a RHC song.
Honest I think By the Way is a better song for the switch, still, amazing work!
Dosed
And you'll need two more basses 😅
Wow sounds like the band Pinback
This is like the first time you see someone who wares glasses without them on .
Soul to squeeze
Muito bom
Sounds baroque esque to me
this is awesome now do snow (hey oh) hahaha
Next - under the bridge
Ha, i also did rhis with a friend a few years ago 😃
This is how guitarists play bass

Honestly the bass is the part that normally gets in my head so it throws me off hearing the guitar in its place
Drums and vocals switch next
Красиво!
great idea, horror song result
'If' or 'Fortune faded'.
Sounds like a sweet jam that is akin to chili peppers by ppl who dont know their music
The reason this works so well is because Flea plays the bass as a leading instrument instead of just spamming the bass note of whatever chord the guitar is playing.
I was only listening and couldn't figure out what was going on. All the notes are there, but it sounds so different. I looked at my screen like "ooooh" 😂
Add flanger to both and it’s a basically a Cure song
This is why i pay for my internet ✔
Tool says hi
Same thing, but with Scar Tissue
I want to hear it with drums and vocals tho
From californication to Medevial Type Beat
Parallel Universe)
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
look around 🤍❤️🦟💊
This is Red Hot Chili Peppers by Californication, thank you and have a good night.
My suspicions have been confirmed that Red Hot Chilli Peppers are secretly a Math Rock band. 😂
This sounds like if you made a mathrock version of the song
I read the title as hotel California for some reason lol
Eddie
Do Snow (Hey Oh) next
This is basically a Pinback song.
Hellfire
FLORIDATION
If Janes addiction wrote californication
snow next 👁️👄👁️
Lol, you switched the right hand methods as well
Haha yeah, good catch! I thought it was a bit funny to do. xD

Baroqhing in the free world
Sounds like John Frusciante's solo albums
