It’s actually quite sad Exposing delusional people who are trying to make it in LA just to be famous

[@thefallenfaith1986]

@andrew bishop Yeah, they should just become youtubers. Hollywood is dying and LA is a third world country now with all the homeless camps, crime, and a communist government to boot. Within the next few years Hollywood will be dead, and youtube will have replaced it. Not that youtube is any better, as its run by Gulagle and they're cultural marxists just like the Hollywood creeps are. Now that youtube censors everything and is trying to replace TV by bringing worthless Hollywood celebrities in, hopefully alt tech competitors like Odysee and Bitchute will kill off youtube and maybe the internet could be a freer place like it used to be in the nineties and 2000s.

[@zoo05zoo]

Tom Petty once told a young musician that you don't come to LA to be successful. If you want to make it, you come there, already being successful. He told him to go back home, work on his stuff and then return when he's ready. The young musician was Warren Zanes who was a member of the band the Del Fuegos who had a nice buzz in the 80s. He ended up leaving the band and obtained a PhD and became a professor. Later in life, he met Tom Petty again and helped him to write his autobiography. He was also became the vice president of education at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. It's an interesting turn of events and I guess the point is, being a rock star may not be for everyone but you can still find a light in this world.

This song so encapsulated my youngest brother. He tried so hard to make it as a guitar player in a rock and roll outfit. I remember this song coming out my senior year of high school, and how I knew what the words "really meant" but he would not hear me , he moved to Nashville and then L.A., and he never found a bite. In 2013 we get a call asking to identify his body, he had shot himself. I want to say that I love the peppers for all the encouragement they inspired in my brother, and wished that they were not so clairvoyant as to how it goes for those that just can't make it. I thank you guys for trying as you can to hold the entertainment industry's feet to the fire for those that fall prey to it's allure and macinations.

[@bluewhye8832]

Did you get caught in the chase.

[@harleyfee364]

I dont think many people understand the genius of this video. Multiple reshoots. Different wannabe stars at different points in the song. Multiple playthroughs to choreograph each person at the right point in the song. This was RHCP giving back and giving hope to all the folks who wanted to "make it" in the music industry. Thing about the patience of a human being then go through the same song 12,000 times with the same hype and motivation each time to make it special for each "wannabe" in their music video. That takes love, admiration and respect.

John Frusciante is pure talent! Their presence on stage is massive! LOVE the RHCP!!!!

[@charlesandre2000]

I have to stop listening to this song while studying because it's making me want to drop out of uni and become a rockstar

[@stephanvillavicencio5679]

yeah the music is addictive. I wouldn't drop the music all together. INstead, just drop it during the week days.

[@leoperes812]

I'd say drop it

[@andrebelcher9096]

[@NotSoAvgJoe7]

only RHCP would rock out with thier fans like this, amazing stuff. I would kill for a chance to jam with those guys.

[@princessebob]

Every time I'm in a bad mood I watch this video. So much pure & authentic joy on everyone's face makes me smile.

[@00Anjie]

RHCP was the first band I loved when I stopped listening to hip-hop and r&b exclusively . Still love them.

[@bigjim8697]

I understand you're mad at him, but why Nazi?

[@michaelatkins3819]

Just cause he's German..lol

[@geralobo1906]

John is SO happy on this... i love that

[@RochelleEskue]

+Gera Lobo: I agree. Love to see him so happy. He makes me happy watching him smile and John does have the best smile because it's a genuine smile at that. (- : < ^_^ > :-)

[@a.sandra2324]

I agree so much...I am defo not a softy,but this make me drop few tears. I love it from the beggining to the end,but seeing John this genuinely happy,made me feel so happy inside.

[@Cosmic_Solace]

He is so adorable, gaaaahh....such a sweet guy. ^_^

[@JK-jl1bf]

I think it’s quite a unique concept to let random people who have dreams of being a star be in music video and just let them be themselves. That’s a band that really gets it. Love this song, before the song is over you’re singing along and it feels so freeing and positive, yet so true and honest. TY RHCP

[@TGOIIHome]

This video is why the chili peppers are awesome I love the part where they come out and play with everyone that you saw on the first part of the video. The Chili Peppers still get it and that's why they're awesome

[@FerGalicia]

This video is 12 years old

[@TGOIIHome]

@@FerGalicia Yes your totally correct! It's been 12 years no doubt. However even after 12 years it's still totally cool, correct, and correct :)

[@andrebelcher9096]

Thomas G O'Neill Jr i thought that was awesome as fuck! Like a cool surprise for the people, like a pop-up jam session and then just go all out towards the end of the video!

[@elderrusty541]

Andre Belcher well, the whole point of the video is that at one time, every star was where they stood, a nobody in the bigger scheme of the music industry

[@dreameater9225]

@@FerGalicia even though it isn't

[@gemzgirl24]

This video makes me so incredibly happy. Seeing people brought together by music and just having an all around great time together is such an amazing thing

[@nickyd6994]

My sister used to love this song. She was a big RHCP fan and made sure everyone knew it because she played their songs throughout the whole house. She always told me how much she connected to this song. Now this song holds a very special place in my heart as well.

[@PamelaGallagher18]

🎶LYRICS 🎶 They come from every state to find Some dreams were meant to be declined Tell the man, what did you have in mind? “What have you come to do?” No turning water into wine No learning while you're in the line I'll take you to the broken sign You see, the lights are blue Come and get it, lost it at the city limit Say goodbye, 'cause they will find a way to trim it Everybody lookin' for a silly gimmick Gotta get away, can't take it for another minute This town is made of many things Just look at what the current brings So high, it's only promising This place was made on you Tell me, baby, what's your story? Where you come from and where you wanna go this time? Oh Tell me, lover, are you lonely? The thing we need is never all that hard to find, oh Tell me, baby, what's your story? Where do you come from and where you wanna go this time? Oh You're so lovely, are you lonely? Oh, giving up on the innocence you left behind Some claim to have the fortitude Too shrewd to blow the interlude Sustaining pain to set a mood Step out to be renewed I'll move you like a baritone Jungle Brothers on the microphone Getting over with an undertone It's time to turn to stone Chitty-chitty, baby, when your nose is in the nitty-gritty Life could be a little sweet, but life could be a little shitty What a pity, Boston and a Kansas City Looking for a hundred, but you only ever found a fifty Three fingers in the honeycomb You ring just like a xylophone Devoted to the chromosome The day that you left home Tell me, baby, what's your story? Where you come from and where you wanna go this time? Oh Tell me, lover, are you lonely? The thing we need is never all that hard to find, oh Tell me, baby, what's your story? Where you come from and where you wanna go this time? Oh You're so lovely, are you lonely? Oh, giving up on the innocence you left behind (Behind!) Tell me, baby, what's your story? Where you come from and where you wanna go this time? Oh Tell me, lover, are you lonely? The thing we need is never all that hard to find, oh Tell me, baby, what's your story?

[@dora3551]

Everytime I listen to music on KZbin and this song comes up I just need to watch the video, and I have watched it so many times it's funny but I just can't look away. So I stop whatever I do at the time and stare at the music video. It is the best video they've made, at least to me. So honest and funny, so spontaneous. I absolutely adore it. Kisses from Croatia and I can't wait to see them in Budapest.

[@dora3551]

+MadigeMade1 Yeah, unfortunately, so true.

[@GeorgeRazzo]

Well said. This actually puts a smile on my face, especially when they come out and surprise people.

[@CriticalShadowFight]

Dora A fan from Bosnia is here too :)

[@986826189]

Yeah me too xd

[@billylee6236]

Well said Dora. It is so honest and funny, and so spontaneous. I just love watching the video too, so wild and free and full of life. Just a bunch of very diverse people coming together, being happy and having fun. It's such a fantastic and positive message for telling people to love and welcome each other with open arms, and the chilis do it so well. Just about every type of person is present - men, women, blacks, whites, Hispanics, Asians, etc. Older people, younger people, everybody is included. Love the horseplay between AK and Flea towards the end, such fun guys lol xx

[@travisshaffer6623]

THIS was great and kinda sweet everyone looked like they were having fun.

[@Djjfjfjfkdkssl]

We need a "where are they now" for these people in this music video. I would love to see that. P.S. If anyone knows of anything like that let me know... Whether it be an article or a video or anything like that😊🤘🏻

[@JoshCunliffe52]

Whitney McParland Leeds fest 2016 rhcp quality

[@youtubkeeper]

I was JUST thinking the same thing!

[@bazookabullet101]

All dead or homeless I bet. They all look like a bunch of washed up people who left high school so they could become famous in the music business. Which isn't always the best idea

[@the.notorious_kk7710]

bazookabullet101 nope. still rocking to this day. released their new album quite recently.

[@bazookabullet101]

the.notorious_kk7 Who released an album?

[@ShivaShaktification]

This is one of my favorite videos of any band because it shows the lack of ego of the band

[@johnnyvigilante397]

Yes! I finally found this song after 5 minuets of searching. I heard on the radio a few nights ago and was blown away. Thank goodness I have a good memory. It actually felt kind of badass driving to this song I must admit :)

[@VRichardsn]

Enjoy! I know how it feels. I spent like 8 years looking for a song until I found it; it was November Rain...

[@johnnyvigilante397]

Richardsen Damn! I'm glad you finally found that song lol. Slash's solos are so melodically chill for that song, I love it! I was listening to it yesterday actually :) Reminds me a bit like David Gilmore's style... Slash offered so much old school classic rock, to a younger generation of listeners, I really can't say enough great things about him. He's just a high quality guitar player all around.

[@VRichardsn]

Johnny Vigilante I couldn´t agree more. And thanks!

[@VRichardsn]

***** There some programs that can guess, with varying degrees of accuracy, a song, based on humming www.midomi.com/

[@010010110010]

***** try Mellowship Slinky In B-Major. it has a similar part in it

[@guitarofdestiny]

The fact that John Frusciante goes along with these kinds of things cracks me up so much

[@marsimus13]

the fact that CHAD SMITH goes along with this also cracks me up. look at how awkward he looks just standing up in the shots when they're alone ahah

[@shararaibrahim3000]

They're just really good people trying to go with the flow for the happiness of everyone else! ❤

That kid in the green shirt, when his face lights up when he realizes he is on stage jamming with RHCP literally makes me feel good in my soul. I wish everyone could feel what green shirt ginger felt that day.

[@DashCamSerbia]

It's cool how they include their random fans in the official music video. They are really down to earth band. Unlike many snob celebreties.

[@jussitikkuri6991]

I love the thumbnail pic with Johnny singing & looking into the camera while Flea is seemingly floating upside down in the air... someone is holding him.

STILL V-HOT IN DECEMBER-2024 ❤❤

[@danegonzales5651]

I wonder if John's explaining at 4:15 that he'll leave the band and will eventually come back again like "yes, I'll leave for 10 years, I want to explore Electronic music, ya know? I'll come back around maybe after ten years or so"

[@kelliehicks9170]

One of my all time music videos! I wish I could have been in that room to watch all those people do something that makes them happy but also vulnerable with the Red Hot Chili Peppers. That is amazing!
