The guitar work in this song is so....sentimental...sounding...It gives me a serious feeling of bitter nostalgia listening to it. Like remembering the good times, but with the harsh reality of how things are now, like remembering a loved one who's died or a special spot that signified your child that's been torn down or abandoned. Especially that ending. That single sad riff somehow manages to hold an entire kaleidoscope of bittersweet emotion....
Ninetails2000 I don’t know what it is. That last part of just guitar and bass in the last 30 seconds is the most beautiful piece of music I’ve ever heard
"Under The Bridge" Sometimes I feel Like I don't have a partner Sometimes I feel Like my only friend Is the city I live in The city of angels Lonely as I am Together we cry I drive on her streets 'Cause she's my companion I walk through her hills 'Cause she knows who I am She sees my good deeds And she kisses me windy I never worry Now that is a lie [2x] I don't ever want to feel Like I did that day Take me to the place I love Take me all the way It's hard to believe That there's nobody out there It's hard to believe That I'm all alone At least I have her love The city she loves me Lonely as I am Together we cry [2x] I don't ever want to feel Like I did that day Take me to the place I love Take me all the way Under the bridge downtown Is where I drew some blood Under the bridge downtown I could not get enough Under the bridge downtown Forgot about my love Under the bridge downtown I gave my life away
I think it could be because the instrumental sounds different than the normal song itself (obviously lol) so it gives you the feeling of listening to it for the first time
One of the darkest times in my life and this song was released that time and reflected my life perfectly - it's a good way to remember how far one has come and what to be thankful for.
This song inspired me to play guitar. I bought a strat the same color as John's guitar in the music video, i bought the RHCP tab book and learned EVERYTHING and played it with my friends. It is still such a joy to play as is all the RHCP songs and this instrumental really shows off the great guitar.
the guitar here so fucking smooth....sounds like it was played with only little effort....which it probably was. great tune.... always was, always will.
I just sang this, by myself at home, no one around, no lyrics in front of me, waaay out of tune, but my timing was spot on. 😂 This has been my jam from the very first time I heard it on the radio, rolling down I-10 from Phoenix to Tucson to visit my parents one toasty day in March of '92.
Yesss my big sister is no longer on this🌍she put me on to this they played this video heavy it was called the box here in Miami I was like they're raw af no kizzy!I'm here reminiscing i miss her so much💔😥
Haven't played in a while and first thing I did is play this. It's like the muscle memory flows straight back into you on how to play it. I love playing this on the guitar!
A versão instrumental é sem sombra de dúvidas MUITO MAIS BELA e limpa, com todos os instrumentos falando de forma muito forte e profunda! Que guitarra funk maravilhosa!

o instrumental dessa música é tão foda, mais tão foda, principalmente a guitarra mágica do nosso amado Frusci, q nem precisa de letra, só a melodia já me carrega pra outra dimensão !

Love this song. The actual song is soooo great. But I was kinda freestyle singing i guess you can say on this just now. Singing about my own struggle with my addiction to heroin and it felt pretty cool and therapeutic to sing about something that I am going thru and it was like the pain can be felt while ur singing about it. Never done anything like that really, but lately I have started singing when I'm by myself which is most of the time because I isolate myself alot. But yeah I have started singing because I have started to notice that I might have a voice for singing. I have never sung anything in front of anybody so I wouldn't know if anyone agrees that my voice is good when I sing but I have a feeling that it is and i enjoy it and the way i put feelings and pain into it and the lyrics like when I was singing to this gives me a good feeling like I am getting stuff off my chest and letting it go in a way.. This is one of my favorite songs and definitely my favorite Red Hot Chili Peppers song so yeah I enjoyed singing over it. Thx.. this has made me realize that I think I might want to try and write and record a song with ne singing over some type of cool instrumental if not this one. Would be dope!
That's good you've found out you have an interest, and very well a talent, in singing. Don't let anything hold you back and you'll find yourself going places with it. Music is a great way to fight addictions and I fully support you doing that. I hope things go well for you.
@Dmorebread I just now read your comment while listening to this. I was on heroin to going on ten years clean now but I had the urge to reply to your comment and see if you were successful in getting off that shit and I guess praying that you didn’t get in to the fentanyl. I know hella random on a 4 yr old post. Hopefully you will get this message and tell me that you are clean that would be dope! If not and you did get caught up in the fety I guess that it is not to late to quit if you’re still alive!
Klinghoffer was pretty good, and I know Slovak was the original, but frusciante was and always will be the heart and soul. So glad he’s back. Personally nothing about Slovak really stood out to me, unless anyone had good tracks they can recommend
This is sick as fuck. Because of years of checking out this track from time to time i can't get off my head Anthony's crappy voice, especially when you are on green pills.
Does anyone how John frusciante did the hammer on pull offs in this song. I’m trying to replicate but it don’t sound the same is there some technique he used or something
