A numerous amount of my favorite songs are from the Red Hot Chilli Peppers. As shown as above, the band has a lot of energy and unique music and style.
My absolute favorite album is "I'm With You". I love in that album the two songs "Meet Me at the Corner", and "The Adventures of Raindance Maggie".
The first song is very sad, because it illustrates a scene of losing someone and making mistakes that ultimately impact relationships. Waiting, nothing to do, for love to return after messing up and not being able to bear the image of someone you care for sitting alone on at the corner. Over the course of time the two were reunited and the song just follows the beautiful storyline. As for the second, you experience a vision of wanting the rain. Wanting whatever the rain may be in your case if life, facing challenge that ultimately results in happiness. I also love "Under the Bridge", "Did I Let you Know", "Dance,Dance,Dance", and so many other songs by this amazing group.
Pearl Jam is so awesome. The band includes so much music, that I have just fallen in love with how fast and how much rock is involved in singing lyrics, that actually have meaning. For example, the song quite overplayed but never wrecked by the band,"The Fixer", which is so sick.
The song discusses overcoming any situation with always something to overcome it with. Hence the title "The Fixer". The lyrics describe several issues constantly overcome and the song itself is so awakening to life ands its challenges and one of my favorites.
However, I truly love a slower song called, "Last Kiss". It tells the story of a terrible car accident where a man lost his love, and despite the accident with his dead lover next to him, questions why she left and yet promises to be good to reunite himself with her when he dies. Listening to the song, you feel the tears running down your face, and smell the rain and flames and it seems vivid.
I also love in "Riot Act", the album's song "Cropduster". Many songs explain events that are perfect and happy, but this song explains how we all connect, and the world itself is a mess and accepting it is alright. The lyrics say " This world is an accident.. This world is upside down." We are all really confused and we should embrace our mistakes and reality, and realize we really do not differ from the other. There is no point in making fun of anyone. "Eyes no eyes, every life looks within", is a dominant lyric in the song. Despite our obstacles, we both are trying to understand life, and it's alright to be confused.
I will continue with more of my favorite music but till then rock on.
