The Guitar that start at 2:00 to the refrain is heaven, art, pure music ..

#ThankYouJoshKlinghoffer

1:16 I’ve never heard such a good tune in my life

Weird flex but ok

Masterpiece.

I kept listening to this song for a year and took a break for a month and now i felt like i cant familiarize the tone especially the intro and the lyrics also felt like it was changrd or something or maybe im sick or something dafuqw

❤❤❤❤

Waiting on the wind to tell my side... love that line!!!

If you are reading this and you are from the future, just remember to float on, alright.

😍😍😍

Wow 🙌

I've never had a song make me literally look up definitions of words before. Great lyricism.

Cant wait for their new album!!!

this song makes me want to live all my life again and when I realize this is not possible my heart fills with a strange mix: on one hand I am happy to feel these things because it is a confirmation that living is good, but on the other I am sad to imagine that it all ends. I think we tend to be melancholy about something beautiful and fragile, such as our lives, our relationships, our friendships, our family. I'll play the song again :)

plagio de the verve....lucky man .....

great lyrics, thank you from Chile!!

Anthony Keidis always has a way of coming at you lyrically and vocally even when he sounds like he's not covering new territory. However as a recreational musician, I'd like to hear the guitar part done as an instrumental. I can hear a mogue synthesizer and maybe a drum break as a solo. Just background vocals in the chorus.

drag a joint and enjoy the tranquility of this song

Only losers need drugs to enjoy music.

1:17 sounds like a Verve song. Can't remember which.

Lucky man perhaps?

This whole album is deep. Fucking beautiful. 🤘

I agree my friend. It's crazy how good this album is to be their latest.

Throw me all around
Like a boomerang sky
Whatever you do
Don't tell me why
Poppies grow tall
Then say bye bye
The wave is here

A seamless little team
And then we tanked
I guess we're not so sacrosanct
The tip of my tongue
But then we blanked
The wave is here
Waiting on the wind
To tell my side

Ready set jet
But she never gets far
Listen to your skin
From the seat of my car
Two centipedes stuck
In one glass jar
The longest wave
Waiting on the wind
To tell my side

Whatcha want
Whatcha need
Do you love

Maybe I'm the right one
Maybe I'm the wrong
Just another play, the pirate, and the papillon
Time to call it a day

Maybe you're my last love
Maybe you're my first
Just another way to play inside the universe
Now I know why we came

Sterile as the barrel
Of an old twelve gauge
Under my skin
And half my age
Hotter than the wax
On a saxifrage
The longest wave
Waiting on the wind
To turn my page

Steady your sails
For the butterfly flap
Whatever you do
Don't close that gap
I'm dreaming of a woman
But she's just my nap
Your ship is in
Waiting on the tide so I can swim

Whatcha want
Whatcha need
Do you love

Maybe I'm the right one
Maybe I'm the wrong
Just another play, the pirate, and the papillon
Time to call it a day

Maybe you're my last love
Maybe you're my first
Just another way to play inside the universe
Now I know why we came

Now I know why we came
Now I know

El meo tema lpm

"maybe you're my last love, maybe you're my bus"

This is such a doomer song

1:17 guitar sounds like the gates of heaven opening

It has that ColdPlay kinda feel. Anyone else agree with me or it's just me.

Never heard this 1 and been listening to Peppers for 15 years now. Awesome.

SOMEBODY KNOWS WHAT DOES THE ANIMALS MEAN?

Andres Felipe Valencia Cadena they each represent the members of the band

Tried to convince my crush to try something new in new life, learn to play guitar. I saw that she had some interest in me. Showed her this song , said yeah let's learn it sometime. After that text she never spoke to me again and she lost interest in me. This song is amazing and reminds me of her everytime I listen to it.

This intro <3

This song makes me so high

I definitely know why we came 💙💚🌊

best song on the album

Like a lullaby

Gorgeous and about my spiritual growth, i wonder how many perspectives there are on such a thing as a song, just in general. Are you seeing everything from a switched angle, what is the meaning of 'my experience', many times all we have is faith <3

This is an incredible song!

why did they randomly mention a plant

this is chili wily

Modern under the bridge tbh

2019 :')

Melhor refrão do muundo

nice song...... this song for helena vestegard 😁😁

I feel sad and happy at the same time

josh's intro reminds me of little wing

Whoever woke up earliest wins. I was up at 5

I love how thw do you l...ovvve cuts of as if he cant stand findong of she does love him

I FUCKING LOVE THIS MUSIC <3

I really hated Josh and constantly compared him to John but he completely nailed it on this one, respect

why do their songs sound the same. lyrics remind me of another song.

maybe i'm the wright one, maybe i'm the wrong, just another play, the pirate and the papillon, time to call it a day.

This song gives me so much nostalgia about summer 2017, the nostalgia explodes like a bomb when I listen to this song <3

Whoever makes the decisions for the Chili Peppers to release singles are way off. This should have been released, without a doubt.

This song brings back memories that I haven't even made yet. I've listened to this about a hundred times and it's tearing me up 😢

Fave song on The Getaway, hands down !

ey hermano es tupido es red hot chillipepeer

3.800. like what is my price now

this song remind me about life is strange

When i got the cd played this song on repeat for a whole summer

Ok ill show you thr next dimension play it at 1.25 hahaha

Meu ouvido esquerdo está com inveja do ouvido direito

This might be my favorite record by the Peppers. It's a killer piece of work, full of life, and love.

*Watchu wa, watchu nid dijo el antoni kidis :v*

How I love this song 💕💕🍃

To be honest this song is deep it hits you emotionally

I remember making out to this song with my ex Girlfriend lol. This was like her favorite song, and I all ways told her this is how I felt 😁🦂🐐

There's a very wrong thing in this music: only 3 minutes

This chorus is simply amazing.

omg that guitar! Josh is amazing guitarist whatever you say!

Pure Love. Great, amazing! Soundtrack for me and my babe. Maybe you're my last love. Maybe you're my first. God bless you all

I think it's because he fell in love with Siargao island, the surfing capital in the Philippines....

what you want?
what you need?
do you love?

I Love this song😍❤

If you know can you please tell me why we came

Recently broke up with my girlfriend of two years. Toughest decision of my life. The parts "Maybe I'm the right one, Maybe I'm the wrong", "Time to call it a day" and "Maybe you're my last love, Maybe you're my first, Just another way to play inside the universe" fill up my eyes every single time.

Piddox
I’ve been through something very similar.
We’ll be alright.

Man, I recently broke up with my girlfriend too, we were only together for six months, but she still means the world to me

Had a similar thing happen I was in love with this guy who i was with for two years but he was very manipulative and one day we'd be fine the next i was in tears he used me for his happiness and sex and he tried to make me happy but he was just very bipolar one day it was I who mattered the next it was him... But it was such a battle to leave him and actually stay away,... This song reminds me of him all the time.

eu amo esa musica

6th time on repeat 😍😍😍

*Papillon*

Masterpiece

always hot

Esta canción me recuerda a un chico crespito :p

the chorus of this song is so fucking good, i mean song is great but that guitars in chorus are phenomenal

Essa intro é muito foda!

waiting on the wind to turn my page

Reminds me of summer of ‘69. Good old times. Haha

Is it normal that I start crying listening this song?

I wish I connected with this song as much as you it's still my favourite song though

😭😭💗💗💗💗😍

no worries i did too...today...life is a bitch sometimes...

Same feeling

No, contact your therapist

most underrated song from the getaway. just perfect ❤️

All those fears about josh....laid to rest☺

I've been a RHCP fan since birth, but let me throw a wrench into the gears:

https://youtu.be/SNLsmh_otYs

Guys,Mr Frusciante wrote this song to Josh's birthday!You're actually listening to Frusciante!

howt you know that?

This is one of my favorite album covers of all time! Beautiful and so RHCP too.

It is not a cover, it is an original song... Ha!

Definitly my favourite of the album.

The poetry/lyrics!
