So I was flipping around today on my music on demand channels and RHCP's new video came on for Humpy Humpy or whatever its called and I have to say, this is the worst RHCP song I've ever heard, I think Anthony and John need to go back to using heroin daily and mabey they'll make some good songs again!

    I'll agree that Hump de bump isn't one of my favorites off of stadium arcadium,but there are some great songs on that cd. They just aren't played on the radio and songs like: "wet sand, desicration smile, stadium arcadium, slow cheetah should be. wet sand is one of the best songs Red hot chili peppers have ever written and recorded.

    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V

    ew, as if they picked that song for a video

    stadium arcadium has some really good songs on it
    ..and you will come to find that we are all one mind, capable of all that's imagined and all conceivable

    its a fun song.. but shouldn't be a single. it would be like pearl jam releasing Bugs as a single for Vitalogy. just a bad choice.. a lot of that album is pretty damn amazing

    i cannot listen to the album..i dont know why they made it a double album... i just end up skipping through it and not enjoying it... there are probably 3 or 4 decent songs.. but its the really bad ones that make the album as a whole unlistenable

    There isn't a song I don't like on SA...to each their own, I guess...
    Is it so wrong to think that love can keep us safe?

    i will never understand why people still like them.

    they've sucked for over 10 years now.

    they are a just a california party band with no soul.

    I'll admit that album wise the only albums on the whole that I like are BSSM and Blood sugar, other than that it's just the various singles on the radio. I thought their live show was fantastic. I think they have plenty of soul when they get up there and play together. They have fun like all bands do, and Flea and Fruscante's collaberating was excellent, and I like the fact that each member gets time in the spotlight to show off their skills. True, they have changed musically, but every band does as they get older and evolve. I've heard vocally Keidis is hit or miss, but he was dead on when we saw him in January, and they still bust out the old ones once in a while. Me and my friends was kick ass live. True their sets dont change hardly at all, but they are a band that has a stage show relying on vdeo screens like Tool. To each their own though I guess, I've gained alot more respect for RHCP after seeing them live though, I'll see them again the next time they come through here, and hopefully they won't be a miss, and it will be another good show.

    Stadium Arcadium is a great album. There best album is Califronaicaton thats a classic. Bssm I feel is there 3rd best cd. I just dont get it there are so many good songs on SA really strong album, dunno why some RHCP fans dont like it.
  • Good in the '80s, and decent until Californication and everything after that. Everything since that CD has sounded like it's B-Sides and outtakes. Except for maybe "Readymade" and a couple other select tracks..

    Completely agree. Stadium Arcadium has about 3 good songs on it. RHCP have completely lost it. A crying shame :(

    Maybe I'm in the very small minority here, but Hump de Bump is one of my favorite songs off of Stadium Arcadium. The drumming kicks ass, and well . . . it just kinda rocks. Saw them play it in LA with Marcel of the Mars Volta. Fucking kicked ass.

    its not just the song, it was the video as well, it looked like they were trying way to hard, it looked like a rap video with girls shaking their asses throughout the entire thing, and Anthony had a fuckin grill on his teeth! I loved RHCP back in the day, but the last 2 albums just do nothing for me. They aren't the same band, thats for sure! Sellouts!

    Man the chili peppers get shit on around here. I love Stadium Arcadium, but i do agree that hump de bump is not a great song.
    Who cares if the world is going down the toilet? Eddie Vedder got his mojo back!

    I used to dislike Hump de bump too, but then I just realized you cant take it so seriously. Now I love the changes in that song. It's still better than 99% of all the otrher crap out there. And I do love SA from start to finish now also.

    I also saw them live and could see how people complain that they are'nt how they used to be, but I loved the show because you can just tell that all those guys are like best friends, and that seems to add something to the music for me.
