Their songs are so listenable that it's easy to just miss how good the musicianship is. Of course that means that they can appeal to a wider audience since you can enjoy it on multiple levels.

Flea is a 🐐

I remember when this album came out and how controversial it was among their fans. People were upset that RHCP had gone "soft". Personally, this is my favorite album of theirs, and IMO this is one of the best songs they ever wrote.

This is a fantastic running song. It has no down parts and it builds one piece at a time to a crescendo. I got so pumped I ran through people's yards and straight into traffic.

It really is a great running song. Another good one for long runs is Bullet the Blue Sky from U2. It's great for late run when you're hurting, you can just lock into the bass line and autopilot.

Man, Chilli Peppers are amazing, they have so many good songs. Don't give up on them. Listen to My Friends, Higher Ground, Soul to Squeeze, Road Trippin, Breaking the Girl.

"Dani California" is another great one. It's a little more mainstream than a lot of their stuff, but it has a great sound and good lyrics. I also love almost everything off of "Mother's Milk" (it was the first R.H.C.P. I heard back in high school in 1989, and I've been a fan ever since). If I had to pick one song off the album to introduce them to, it would probably be "Knock Me Down" (a very underrated song, in my opinion), but I have a strange feeling that Lex might like "Magic Johnson" the most after she hears it a few times🤣.

Their cover of Higher Ground is fantastic

To me, this song represents being part of the "wave" of society, and being caught up in being a cog in a system of normality and what is expected of you. "Ever wonder if it's all for you?" Are you happy in your routine life, are you doing things outside of this routine, are you differentiating yourself as much as you need? Sometimes their lyrics tend to be a bit abstract, but that's one of the reasons why I like them :-). I hope that may help shed some light on things. Keep it up guys!

I saw somewhere that went into depth on how it was about addiction. Like, I don’t know how you could possibly debunk it, it went detail by detail.

How can something be SO groovy and yet SO relaxing. There are some Chilli Peppers songs that are just pure inner-peace in music form for me.

John frusciante the lead guitarist is so amazing. The guitar in their songs is unmatchable. So pumped since he rejoined

Flea is a bass guitar god! 🎸🤘🏼

Their music is so diverse, original, full of metaphors, symbolism, and IMHO open to interpretation. Some is just out there as far as lyrics...

Live at slane castle. That's by far their best performance. Legendary. John Frusciante the real Jesus. Watch the whole concert. If you have to pick one - Venice Queen, Californication or Throw away your television.

“If their videos were all tunnels, I could handle that.” I don’t know why I found that so hilarious.

So funky. Gets me every time, what a band.

"Dark Necessities" is epic.

A lot of RHCP lyrics are like a stream of consciousness poet vibe and words that just rhyme and sound cool

Check out: “Dark Necessities” or “Californication” I love hard metal but Red Hot Chili Peppers have a soft spot in my heart growing up in LA

For me this is a John and Flea masterpiece

Been an RHCP fan for 33 years! I hope you keep reacting to their music~

The thing you were humming was All-Star by Smash Mouth, you might have heard it in Shrek.

3:52 I think the song that you were trying to remember is All Star by Smash Mouth :)) Peace & Love from Brazil!

“It’s so weird” “so weird but I like it” “so weird” like geez.. what a great reaction lmao

y'all should do Otherside by RHCP! that's one of their best imo 😊 a couple others by them is worth checking out as well: Dani California Californication The Adventures Of Rain Dance Maggie

It's the individual parts and how good and talented they are that makes the whole so great. Deciphering lyrics is cool but usually up to interpretation. Don't let it distract you from the music.

The little tune Brad hummed sounded like All Star by Smash Mouth, lol.

Heya guys! Hope you’re enjoying your day. Would love to hear “By the way” reaction from these legends! It’s my favourite song :D

They are amazing to watch live. Caught a show in the 90's, 2000's, 2010's .....just need to catch one in the 2020"s

Just a straight drum / bass funk jam layered with textured clean guitar stylings and topped off with a word salad of random societal observations. Great tune!

I could bet that Brad was humming the song from Shrek, after the first chorus. All Star by Smash Mouth. You guys would dig smash mouth haha

I’d recommend ‘Suck My Kiss’ or ‘By The Way’ for high energy songs from these guys, and ‘Under The Bridge’ or ‘Tearjerker’ for more chilled out songs.

Dude uses his words like an instrument, maestro. The fun thing about the RHCP is that almost every song is legit a classic.

ALWAYS great reactions. I like how Lexi set Brad up. "I can't remember that song" "just hum it" That look on her face is classic and Brad trying to hum... Let's say I lost it. THANK YOU

Was hoping you'd do this 😄 my favourite one!

John fruciantes harmonies and guitar are out of this world

Don’t give up on them just yet. Californiacation is to me their best song. As well as dark necessities. They have more understanding lyrics but also comes with the fun vibe that y’all like about them.

Can we just all stop and appreciate a constant with many of their albums? The mixing and production. Funky Monks is an interesting watch. Their records sound great.

Often times their funky sound and their strange persona overshadows their genius writing and deep messages...

Don't forget me by them is bad ass.Has an excellent guitar solo.Great reactions y'all

The thing you have to appreciate about RHCP is that they are absolutely not worried about to conforming - they make wonderfully creative and unique music and they are always true to who they are. They are one of the few bands who have not changed what they do through 4 decades - they are RHCP: you either like it or don't. Love them!

They have changed, but in a good way. Old stuff is good, but they evolved and made all kinds of music since the 80s. Good musicians can make music their fans will continue to like; great musicians will make music so good that it can keep old fans (who may complain about them "selling out" otherwise), and draw in new fans, without compromising their principles or their love of their art.

Hahaha, I love your reactions :D. Never stop being who you are, guys :)!

RHCP “Don’t Forget Me” live at La Cigale has been on my Playlist for 9 years. Their live shows are where they stand out.

Absolutely love your RHCP reactions! Absolutely have to review some of their super big ones! Scar Tissue, Californication, Otherside, Snow, Dani California!

I also just watched your comfortably numb video. Great vid. My absolute favourite (thats how we spell it in Canada) live concert video is the rhcp live at slane castle. The californication song is amazing

I love how they are not serious 😂😍❤️❤️❤️

The song you might have been searching for could be All Star by Smash Mouth

red hot chili peppers are great! so much groove, such a, idk. chill vibe to their music. This is what I imagined CA must feel like as a ignorant european kid when I discovered them... sunny weather, cool dudes and girls skating all day, going to the beach, doing drugs, road trips, just chilling and hanging out while listening to exactly this type of music.

React to Dani California! Really fun song if u are just getting into the peppers

No one sounds like RHCP, they came in at the heart of metal and pop, they gave their own sound, the leadsinger and the bassist are among the greatest

8:32 Brad: "Like, that solo didn't hurt my ears or anything." Lex: "Yeah" "But, you want it to hurt my ears, that's why you like it." Lex: "Yeah" Another classic!

I still think their best song is their cover of Stevie Wonder's Higher Ground

Aeroplane

a friend of mine from school was super into them and they were touring europe in like 2002 I think. they were sold out everywhere but we got some tickets online for like twice the regular price at the other end of the country and we went to see them. long ass train ride, barely any cash left but enough weed and cigarettes for 2 days. we spent the night on park benches in a strange city smoking weed and drinking the cheapest beer we could find. in the morning we went to the concert hall and met some girls he knew from some fan forum. we stood in the very front the whole day and then ran in when they opened the door. we were in the very front of the stage pretty much the whole day and night. and from the very first minute of the pre show there was people jumping, running, ramming, tackling, hugging and falling everywhere. I've seen a bunch of concerts before that one and I've seen a whole lot more afterwards, but the energy of that concert was unique. straight after the concert we ran through the rain to the train station to catch a night train back home. I was so spent after that weekend.. plus I got pneumonia and a minor concussion and missed school for a couple weeks. top 5 concert memories :D

Very good indeed! GG guys

In my opinion "Dani California" and "breaking the girl" are their best songs.

Thanks for doing this one. I suggested it. I’m sure many others did as well.

Please keep listening to RHCP please please please. I’m 23 and they have been my favorite band since I was like 5-7 years old.

I recommend "Sick Love", it's probably my favorite song off of their "The Getaway" album.

They might be weird but they play like gods!!! John and Flea in simbiosi are perfectly harmonized

iTunes original series of Dani California is one of my favorites for a guitar solo, check it out, thanks.

One of the most original and unique bands ever. Big dogs for 4 decades now💯💯💯

Love this song RHCP ARE LEGENDARY

I dig this jam.

Great song and great reaction!

their videos are like the Beastie Boys videos... always having fun!

I watched this video debut on one of the old music channels (UK) back in the day man I feel old

Its great people are opening up to new music

Mad how his girl consistently has a better opinion in every vid

Man that video takes me back 20 years

Yeah, you did it! Love this one, such a fun feel good song! I hear you Lex, I´m a die hard metalhed and I like to bang my head too, but there´s something about the RHCP´s sound that is so infectious and fun to hear. I think the last line of the song really defines what the song is about: "This life is more than just a read through".....enjoy life, don´t just pass it by. Ok, for Brad definitely "Scar Tissue", one of their biggest hits and it´s your vibe. For Lex try "Around the World" they go mental on that one. And for the both of you: "Dark Necessities" from last album, it has become one of my favourites. Peace.

This is one of my favorite and it’s just so🤌🏻

she is really good at messing with him! i love it!

such a catchy tune

"East side love is living on the West on." These guys are all about California, but their vibe comes from their love of East coast funk that inspired them. This song, Dani California, Love Rollercoaster (a cover from Ohio Players) and Higher Ground (a cover of Stevie Wonder) are definitely my favorite 2 RHCP songs.

The top comment on this music vid was "me and the boys at ikea after taking every drug known to man" 😂😂😂

Haha, I'm pretty sure he was singing Smash Mouth - All Star when he was trying to remember what it reminded him of.

i love you guys. So weird, when i watched your first reactions, and Greg is a more settled guy, Lex is this passionate sun, and people writing such negative stuff here like "greg is like a robot". You guys are awesome, the both of you and got great chemistry :)

This song is about living life to the fullest.

Should react to “Tell Me Baby”. Surprising and super funky 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸

I feel its a song about life, and chasing spiritual freedom among other aspects of life and just all aspects of life in general, and being addicted to chasing that higher thing

Can’t stop listening to that funky baseline that Flea is playing it’s so tight

I love this one!

One of my favorites. Death of a Martian is a must! So freaking good.

The legendary bassist

Hungry Like the Wolf by Duran Duran sounds like what Brad was humming

Im a metal head and luv all the metal your doing especially maiden but chilli peppers are awesome!

More Peppers...glad to see and hear it. Another band you have to give a good 5 or so songs to listen to in order to feel them out.

He's singing about not being able to stop the rockstar life 🤘🤘

The song brad is talking about sounds like all star by smash mouth 😂

Dark necessities would be a great one for you guys to react to, I think you'd like it

Around the world and breaking the girl, are great RHCP songs

Weirdness defines RHCP 😂😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Brad n Lex, I totally understand why you aint into it as much and thats the thing about this song is the more you hear it, the more you like it. Idk how old you 2 are but back when I was in high school this came out, maybe a few years after idk but, I definitely wasnt feelin it. Now? Fuggetaboutit, i fuckin love this song. It grew on me and now I love it

cant stop wont stop

omg lexy is totally succumbing into the rock genre... nice!

The director of the video had regular ppl come off the street in to the warehouse where they made the video. He told then to take props and make some art. He took their ideas and had the guys (RHCP) recreate those ideas for the video

the Chilis are a smash of Jazz and Regae. Flea, the bassist was a Horn Player in H.S. and his dad is a huge Jazz fan. Both Flea and the Singer Anthony Akiedas have been in a few Movies playing some goofy, but integral parts to the movie itself.

"Don't Forget Me" is a great song. I highly recommend the live version.

Dark Necessities might be a style they both like, it's one of my favorites but just one of many.

Buena reacción, saludos desde Ecuador

For videos by the chili peppers love rollercoaster and californication are my faves.
