Son lo más grande

Brendan Mullen, a night club owner in California who gave RHCP the chance to make something of themselves. He helped promote them and and got them big, along with numerous other bands. Kinda a father figure to the band.

a couple of weeks ago I lost my son in a motorcycle accident...he was 17. Today I'm in the shower and this song plays on Pandora..I hear it and start crying because the words resonated with me...I got out so I could find the name of the song and couldn't believe it...my sons name is/was Brendan...his full initials were BCP

I'm sorry about the loss of your son. We lost our 17 year old daughter, Maggie, to cancer on June 1, 2017. This song resonates with us as well.

Chili Peppers were my sons favorite band and after he passed on in 2011 they continue to pop up on my radio as I'm driving at least once a day. It's as if my son is saying I'm still here with you dad.❤️ Thank you Chili Peppers for keeping my sons memory alive and with me every day

Crazy how you can get goosebumps from amazing songs such as this....? Deep to ....it's about Branden Mullen, a UK American-Club owner who was one of their first major supporters and gave them thier start. Keidis and Flea were his very good friends right up until he passed. They were even helping him write his autobiography...

how old are you because this song was released 3 years ago.

My dad took me to this concert a few years back aswell as a few others. Red hot chili peppers was my first concern my dad passed away a few days ago and I am the age of 13. He was my best friend this song makes me cry everytime.

My son's mother died yesterday. This was her favorite song by her favorite band. I can't even hear a single note without feeling like the world is ending.

My dad passed 5 year ago completely unexpectedly. One day he was here the next he was gone. We loved this song. I listen to this to think about him.

This song is freaking awesome! Clearly it has touched many people’s hearts. Anthony’s voice is notably nice in this song. So heart warming! Have a nice day, and thanks rhcp!

i find it awesome that they wrote this song for Brendan Mullen. It's heart warming really, and is one of the many reasons RHCP is my favorite band

the most beautiful song ever!

I love RHCP.

I like the picture of Brendan Mullen in the black mans hat at 2:58. truly a heart felt and wonderful song that is made for a caring man. RIP Brendan.

love this, so unused to Anthony singing like that, unreal performance

the last part looks to me like their saying "thank you for what you did. because of you! we are here now. good bye and thank you from the deepest of our heart"

Actually, Brendan Mullen died on VERY FIRST day rhcp were going to rehearse with Josh. When Anthony came to rehearsal he delivered the news to band that they just lost Brendan. And then they started playing without really talking. Out of that jam was basis for ''Brendan's Death Song''. So this song is like a new beginning of RHCP era.

John chose to join the digital revolution. In my opinion; he was wrong to do so. I think Josh did an incredible job on this album.

I would like to deeply congratulate Josh! Really well done job in a difficult role, to be temporarily in John's place.

How this song touches the soul. Beautiful.

I remember the first time Red Hot Chili Peppers played in Chile in 1999, with some friends after the concert we went to the hotel where they were staying to see if we could say hello, i remember that Flea greeted us from the lobby of the hotel and made signs with his hands so that we went into the hotel, the hotel guards did not let us in, after a while Chad Smith came out and greeted us and took some pictures with some fans, great guy, i think Red Hot Chili Peppers despite the fame has always maintained a closeness attitude with people and the spirit of their beginnings is still in them.

Show...pura arte...

R.I.P Brendan, R.I.P Hillel, R.I.P River, R.I.P Jack, R.I.P Kurt, R.I.P Taylor 🕊

Rest In Peace Michael Poulsen. No more pain

[Verse 1] If I die before I get it done, will you decide? Take my words and turn them into signs that will survive Because a long time ago, I knew not to deprive It's safe out there and now you're everywhere, just like the sky And you are love, you are the love supreme, you are the rise And when you hear this, you’ll know it’s your jam, it’s your goodbye [Chorus] Like I said you know I'm almost dead You know I'm almost gone And when the drummer drums He's going to play my song To carry me along Like I said you know I'm almost dead You know I'm almost gone And when the boatman comes to ferry me away To where we all belong [Verse 2] We all crossed when we were feeling lost it's just the time Kateri cried the day her lover died she recognized Because he gave her a life of real love it's no surprise [Chorus] Like I said you know I'm almost dead You know I'm almost gone And when the drummer drums He's going to play my song To carry me along [Bridge] Let me live so when it's time to die even the reaper cries Let me die so when it's time to live another sun will rise I said yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! I said yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! [Chorus] Like I said you know I'm almost dead You know I'm almost gone And when the boatman comes to ferry me away To where we all belong [Outro] Like I said you know I'm almost dead You know I'm almost gone Like I said you know I'm almost dead You know I'm almost gone

Beautiful song

I’ve avoided this song my whole life because of the name and now at the lowest point of my life i finally listened to it. This song is perfect 😢

Simply amazing

I have been listening to the red hot chili peppers since I was a few months old. Whenever I'm sad I listen to this song, it means more to me then anyone can ever imagine, ❤️💕💕💖

Impressionante como até agora RHCP continuam bons! O tempo passa e eles continuam ainda melhores! Melhor banda que eu já vi (:

Thank you Rhcp for making my childhood awesome with ur music.... nostalgic ✨✨

so beautifull

Thats one of the Best songs of band. Chili Peppers, we love you❤️

Stop with the "debate" between frucsiante and klinghoffer, jhon was amazing, but so is josh, john decided to make his own ideals and josh is doing an amazing job with the peppers.mayber josh is not at the same level as john, but he is damn good, and if you dont like it, you are free to stop listening them.

love this song

I was listening to Pandora in the shower, crying hysterically over my teenage son whom I lost in a motorcycle accident two weeks prior. This song started playing and I felt a calmness wash over me...a warmth of sorts and it felt as though he was hugging me...crazy as it sounds and I being a "non-believer" -I know it sounds crazy. I turned off the shower to find the name of the song and couldn't believe it...because my sons name was Brendan...BCP. Anyhow...I just wanted to put out there how much this song means to me now I believe my son used this song to reach out to me.
