Is it just me...or is this a bad song...honestly..it goes nowhere...theres nothing catchy about it...it plods along..it sounds like all the other RHCP stuff...at least WWS is up tempo and has a cool tag...Dani California just sounds very boring to me. Thoughts?

    I like it too. I bet I'll get tired of it once it gets overplayed though.

    I don't like it either. I also am finding it increasingly tiresome/annoying that Kiedis rhymes line after line of his lyrics. It leads to the most inane and trite lyrics, imo.

    I like the peppers but this song is kind of boring and nothing new not as sure as I was a year ago about even bothering with the new record.

  • Yeah I'm unimpressed. Even my friends who's tends to prefer lots of music including the Peppers over Pearl Jam likes Worldwide Suicide over Dani California.
  • I dont like the RHCP but I like the song. Gets even close to WWS even though I love PJ and dont like the Peppers, but hey, it's just 2 songs. I'll definitely buy Avocado but I wont buy Stadium Arcadium.

    the chilli willi's suck now....same formula for every song. They were great back in the day. Mother's Milk was an awesome album.

    Ill be buying both albums, yeah the Chili's are sounding like BSSM again but as the saying goes, if it aint broke dont fix it... and to my ears it aint broke and they're sounding rocking as ever.

    i love the peppers...but this song just doesnt do it for me.

    Yeh im a Peppers fan too, but i can't get into this tune at all. I'm sure the album will have much better songs though.
    Who cares if the world is going down the toilet? Eddie Vedder got his mojo back!

    I'm a big Peppers fan and I think this is the best song they've done in a long time. It has so much energy to it and the chorus rocks. I like all their albums, but I think this song is better than anything on By the Way.

    I wouldnt go that far, i think the new album as a whole will be better than By The Way but damn there were some awesome songs on that album.
    I think By The Way lost alot of their fans because they took a bit of a different route. I admit it did take me a couple listens to get into it but im glad i did cause i love it.
