which one do people fancy more, i prefer WWS, Dani California seems a bit dull and not very original in terms of music.
also which song will be popular over this year out of the 2?

    I like WWS more. I'm way more of a PJ fan than a RHCP fan and I just find the song better as a whole.

    DC will be a lot more popular because RHCP is liked by so many posers and i think they are mainstream. Also WWS is a way better song and DC just wasnt that ineresting and the video was a turnoff too.

    I find Dani California to be somewhat boring, the only exciting and interesting parts are the chorus and solo. Just something about the verses that I find dull.

    Dani California will be the most popular to the general consensus, but i prefer WWS, I expect from what live tracks I've heard though that there is much better tracks on SA than Dani, Wet Sand and Ready Made spring to mind:)

    wws, without a doubt.

    im extremely happy with both considering they are my no1 and no2 favorite bands and they finally have some new stuff but pearl jam takes spot 1 as usual and i do like WWS more than DC
    I've faced it, a life wasted, and I'm never going back again.

    WWS, but DC will become much more popular. WWS came out a week or 2 before DC, and PJ was getting some play on my local radio station, but ever since DC came out its overshadowed PJ's get song. the RHCP are much more mainstream in the first place, and like VMGACg said they are still crankin out the videos and really never went away on the MTV scene. I hope to see WWS get some more play.

    WWS kicks it's ass.

    i'm sure the RHCP album will be better than that single..

    it's not terrible though.

    Well...WWS debuted with higher audience and times played when you compare their first week out.


    AND, WWS was released 2 weeks early because of the 'leak' remember? Radio stations didn't get the okay till Monday afternoon...anyway, they stack up pretty closely, but WWS had higher overall numbers in Alternative and Rock its first week out.

    It has also been said that WWS was downloaded 250,000 times for free off the pearljam.com, I wonder the affect that had. I mean, it's STILL doing great numbers even with the 'leaks' and free downloads/myspace publicity.

    When I first heard Dani last week I had it on straight repeat for 2 hours without it getting old....I couldn't do that for WWS, but I could for Parachutes. This isn't a popular opinion but Im definately looking forward to Stadium a little more than PJ. RHCP makes better studio albums lately, PJ is a way better live band...Californication/ By the Way are far superior to Binaural/ Riot Act in my opinion as far as the production for studio albums goes.

    sorry but i prefer dc...wws is ok

    but i think it doesn't matter...the two greatest bands of our time will release albums in a few weeks which both will be great and its a little stupid to compare them song by song

    Dani California is the same played out stuff the peppers have put out the last 2 albums. As soon as i saw "California" in the title i knew it was going to be dissapointing.


    WWS booya!

    Dani California is superior to Worldwide Suicide. However, Dani California is inferior to every other track off the new album except Unemployable and Life Wasted IMO.
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

    Smashing Pumpkins
    Pixies
    Anything with Chris Cornell
    Beck

    etc..

    there are a lot of bands i'd argue that upstage the chili's on "greatest band of our time"..

    which i would give to Pearl Jam for a lot of reasons..

    not saying they aren't up there... just trying to bring you back to reality for a minute ;)

    dani california is one of the weakest 1st singles realesed by a 'big band' since
    'nothing as it seems'. since it's a double album i hope there is something better there.

    i think dani california is a better single. also since its a double album for the chilis i know it will probably have alot more impressive songs. i just think the chilis overall is a better band. still cant argue as well this is a pearl jam forum.
