![]() Craig Lee from Valdosta, GaScott,I believe there was another band that used backward recordings before Hendrix.Matt from Houston, TxSeriously,a lot of bands in thearly 60's used backwards messages as a sign that people should enjoy music-not rant on about the "demonic following".Sly's or Funkadelic, that I've heard once in a party, but when I've heard it I've tought that give it away was inspired on that, the riff is not totally equal, but it has the same style(the beggining one), so if there is somebody who knows this song, please tell us.Ībout backward recordings it seems there's some in Tomorrow Never Knows(Revolver). Gabriel from Curitiba, BrazilI was searching for an information about this song and had discovered songfacts.Can't wait for what comes next from Anthony, Flea and the gang. My first thought was that this group did great rock with a sense of humor. Jim from Kennett Square, PaWhat a fun song.love it! I became a big fan of the Red Hot Chili Peppers early on when they released a tune called "Fight Like A Brave", which is also listed on Songfacts.Gabriel from Curitiba, BrazilI've found, that Cosmic Slop, song from Hardcore Jollies(Funkadelic-1976),has a similarity with Give it Away,only in the beggining but you can't say that is a copy, Frusciante is one of the greatest!! And of course, a Funkadelic fan.They were just reall good friends and she was a mentor/ maternal presence to him. Theo from Johannesburg, South AfricaAnthony never dated Nina Hagen.Ryan from Killer County, Pagreat song.gotta good riff and loud right away.the parody is hilarious too lololololololololololol Michael from Deridder, How did I miss that episode?!?! p.s.He was a vegan and had a different view on Hollywood than most people if the time did. The RHCP song Transcending on One Hot Minute was written about River and how much of a great person he was. Flea rode with River in the ambulance when he died and also acted with him in the movie My Own Private Idaho. Kate from MichiganThe lines "There's a River born to be a giver, Keep you warm won't let you shiver, His heart is never gonna wither" is referring to River Phoenix who was best friends with Flea of the RHCP.Leo from ArgAt the end of the song, is the Axel Rose's voice that I heard?.Jake from MontrealBob Marley poet and a prophet.Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind Publisher: MoeBeToBlame, WORDS & MUSIC A DIV OF BIG DEAL MUSIC LLC Writer/s: Anthony Kiedis, Chad Smith, John Frusciante, Michael 'Flea' Balzary Long gone are the times when she scrub meĭrinkin' my juice, young love chug-a-lug me Goodness me, can't you see I'm gonna cough it? Greedy little people in a sea of distress I can't tell if I'm a kingpin or a pauper Give it away, give it away, give it away now How come everybody wanna keep it like the Kaiser? Reeling with the feeling, don't stop, continue What I got, you gotta get it put it in you You do a little dance and then you drink a little water What I got, you got to give it to your daughter What I got, you've got to give it to your papa ![]() It’s like he heard Kiedis do his carpe diem rap for the umpteen-hundredth time - “Never been a better time than right now!” - and decided to press a cool new wrinkle into the fabric of reality.What I got, you got to give it to your mama And in the song’s final spasms of happiness, John Frusciante - dressed in loose ’90s skater clothes - gives the music a vivid twist, adding a descending sequence of chords that feels feathery and colorful, like a peacock pushed down the playground slide. ![]() Chad Smith is keeping time in his paradoxically timeless way, playful and unflappable, boing-boing, bam-bam. Flea has the physique of a 20-something gym bro and a face that belongs on a coin, and he still plays his bass like he’s electrocuting himself with his own greatness. ![]() Anthony Kiedis wears a schoolboy haircut and a math teacher mustache, so when those giveitawaynows come rolling out of his mouth, they’re like muscle cars accelerating out of a carwash. And if you fully commit your body to their music, you might feel the same. What’s trickier is figuring out when you are.
