Lyrics:
Sometimes I feel like I don't have a partner
Sometimes I feel like My only friend
Is the city I live in, The City of Angels
Lonely as I am together we cry
I drive on her streets 'cause she's my companion
I walk through her hills 'cause she knows who I am
She sees my good deeds and she kisses me windy
Well, I never worry, now that is a lie
I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
But take me to the place I love, take me all the way
I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
But take me to the place I love take me all the way
Yeah, yeah yeah
It's hard to believe that there's nobody out there
It's hard to believe that I'm all alone
At least I have her love
The city, she loves me
Lonely as I am together we cry
I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
But take me to the place I love take me all the way
I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
But take me to the place I love take me all the way
Yeah, yeah yeah
Oh, no, no, no, yeah yeah
Love me, I say, yeah yeah
One time
(Under the bridge downtown)
Is where I drew some blood
(Under the bridge downtown)
I could not get enough
(Under the bridge downtown)
Forgot about my love
(Under the bridge downtown)
I gave my life away, yeah
Yeah yeah
Oh, no, no no no, yeah yeah
Oh no, I said oh, yeah yeah
Here I stay

Nice!
I love you soo much!! ❤️❤️❤️
My middle school history teacher loved the peppers. He would play them during class everyday! Rest In Peace Mr. Sweet!!
Wow, what a great teacher... where do you live?
May his soul rest in peace

Rest in peace Mr. Sweet!!
Curse them!! They’re probably responsible for his demise.
he had a great taste in music
my uncle died of a drug overdose and this song connects me to him. this song will forever be my favorite
❤️
Chin up bro
He definitely will see you singing along
Same my cousin did too and we played this at his funeral
@@eriks6772 ❤️
Anthony wrote this song about his loneliness due to addiction, but little did he know this very song would relate to much more wider spectrum of humanity, especially those who feel lonely
He was also homeless at this time. That’s why under the bridge. But i think you already know 😊 Just adding a little extra info
@@crazyplantmoomin3110he just wasn’t though. It was about his relationship with John and Flea fading and he was back on his rampant drug use and he would be shooting up with Mexican gangbangers under an overpass somewhere. Pretty sure he had a nice house at that point because of the recent success of Mothers Milk.
@@ExtremeTalker-xw6cd no he's actually right
Its an unofficial anthem for drug users struggling too.💯🔥🌶🔥🤙🏾🫶🏾
I was in college and Agood friend from cali was a bodygaurd for the chilli peppers he did a report and he said that Anthony and his best friend were shooting up under the bridge and his friend OD and died c
is there anything more fulfilling than being able to say I DON'T EVER WANT TO FEEL LIKE I DID THAT DAY? that's a chance to look back on the past and say no to it with complete confidence. to me that represents total clarity and control in life... just another word for bliss.
pepers kakakakakaka
This song reminds me of why I quit drinking
😢yes sir iykyk!! Good shit bro keep striving for betterment we here cheer you on brother!
I loved this song as kid. But when I came off heroin 13 years ago. It has a whole different meaning and hits differently. It feels like someone else’s life now looking back.
Wise man mr
I remember back in the day, whoever could bust this out on guitar at a party was the king of the night. Good times.
Still doing it to this day at 19 years old chilli's and Hendrix 🤙
They still are if they do this nowadays
Sounds like a badass party
Jonh is back baby hold on
Right about that I remember learning the intro
I'm currently at the same beach, sitting at the same spot I first heard this song in summer 92
Special occasion!😯
Cool💪
Damn
Are you still there? If you are, it's time to go home.
damn you old
Early 90s was the last great musical revolution.

My favorite genre ❤
The voices of the choir are so haunting and so beautiful at the same time.
Voices of the choir are John's mother and her friends from church.
@Alexsummer90 I didnt know that that's cool
I listened to this song for 30 years before I realized those voices were saying "under the bridge downtown". Added to a great song for me.
@@benjaminmorton4958now that you said it I can hear it 😭

This is original bro...
Generic And Unfunny this comment is pretty ironic lmao
Slayzer you know what fair enough lol
Edit: MY OLD UA-cam NAME WAS “GENERIC AND UNFUNNY” that’s why people were calling me that.
lmao
Your name fits perfectly lol
I hit the coke and amphetamine wave of the late 90s, in England. I was 17, and was into mostly punk, and ska. But, this song was EVERYWHERE. It permeated parties, after parties, speakers, guitars.....You name it. EVERYONE loved it....Goths, punks, metalheadz, bikers, ravers....it just moved around and did it's thing. I guess it just finds everyone who needs it.
I lost my mind, my house, my job, my partner, had a bunch of hospital visits, surgeries, psychological episodes, went to war, went to rehab, and got kicked out of the army. I then struggled for another 8 years. I'm 5 years clean this month. Life is good. It's sad....leaving that world, and the people in it. Real life is strange. These days I'm addicted to physical training and gardening! Funny, eh?
Good luck everyone, and thanks Anthony!
On his interview with Joe Rogan, he said he was proud LA Eses would jame this song in their low riders. I thought that was very cool. He also describes how this song came to be with Rick Rubin.
@@SocketSilver this song hits one of the few songs I sing along too and actually know most of the lyrics
I walked many of those same paths at the same time. Life is very strange.
Nice one matey xx
Good luck too xx
Six boys, all about ten years old, on the way to swimming lessons while riding in the back of an open pickup truck in 1992, belting this song at the top of their lungs at 60mph. No shirts, no seatbelts, no fear of getting pulled over by the cops. The 90s were a magical time. I miss those days.
Yep, I was about the same age back then. Did all those things. Was a time to be alive.
We did that in the 70s cept it was Kiss "I Wanna Rock n Roll All Night and Party Everyday"! Damn I'm old!!!
Anyone in 2024??🔥🔥
Quite simply one of the greatest songs ever written.
And to think that it was just some old throwaway poem Anthony Kiedis wrote in a notebook and was too embarrassed to show to his bandmates. Imagine where the Red Hot Chili Peppers would be today if Rick Rubin hadn't seen it...
Cameron they chased after Rick Rubin for many years. Getting him really made them go from an indie alt band to the mainstream
quite simply one of the worst bands of all time
esquibelle nice bait
esquibelle say sike right now
Why does every RHCP music video seem like an acid trip...
song is actually about heroin
+thesecretfox1 Narcotics, I don't think he ever specified it was about heroine.
+TheWarhammerfreak Ever read Scar Tissue bro?
Well I was going to leave well enough alone but ok. First off just because a song has a line related to heroine doesn't make the song about heroine. If a farm grows corn along with countless other vegetables it isn't a corn farm. The song is about being alone and coping with it, so yes, drugs played a crucial role in this, but that doesn't make the entire song about one specific drug. It's much deeper and meaningful than that. If you want songs about drugs listen to hip hop. Victor, all I'll say is look up "red herring argument".
+TheWarhammerfreak It is about heroin, the loneliness part is what accompanies the heroin addiction. Under the bridge, where i drew some blood, couldnt get enough.
So anyone in 2024?
Me from Cholula Mexico
Listening in Vientiane, Laos!
Here I am
na i haven’t got that update yet im still in 2023

these are 4 great musicians, 5 with hilel.... he is always part but yes these are 4 great musicians, real musicians, something you do not see at this level any longer....
I can relate to this 25 years ago. I ran away from home because my parents both are drug addicts. I live under the bridge for some time. It was some stressful times. so I tried cocaine and I was addicted to it. Until I met the love of my life. It was what you call love at first sight. to make her my Lover I need to stop. but I can't. so I started working at a Grocery store and I realized I can stop just by making myself busy. After Sober I cofessed to her and she turns out she loved me too. Now we have 2 childrens. and I don't contact my parents anymore because I heard from the neighbours they are still drug addicts. Thank you for hearing me out. This was the toughest moments at my life.
😿😿😿
Happy for you 💥👍
Don't know you but I'm proud of you, sir.
Stay strong man
wow ur strong
Who's here watching in 2025
?????
I'm in 2029 dude and still here

In 2003 chilly peppers opened for Snoop Dog in Atlanta. Did great! Snoop Dog did 3 songs but left way too early because stage manager would let him smoke on stage between songs. Red hot Chilly Peppers came back out and rocked the house for the next hour. By far the greatest live concert I've ever been too.
when you seriously take the time to take in all the lyrics and understand it, WOW! the meaning behind it is so incredible
Henrys HowTos are you a dope fien?
Look at his shirt every time before he starts singing take me to the place I love haha

Thank you even if nobody ever told you. Thank you. They are real musicians anyone who ever want play instruments
This song is getting me through a difficult time. I’m grateful for the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Music really does heal.
I feel you, my parents fight a lot with little regard to the emotional effects it has on me, I also have frequent anxiety attacks. Even when no one is around for me, I always have RHCP to comfort me. Keep going love.

Still my fave song
This song helped me through my heroin addiction I’m now 7 years sober and have the woman of my dreams a good job a car my own house and it’s funny how back then I was nothing but a drug addict who didn’t have two nickels to rub together and a bag of tar now here I am thankful that god helped me through along with this song and I wouldn’t change a thing
Keep fighting the fight man. Very few have made it as far as you have. Be proud
Good on you my brother. I used to be an addict and my ex girlfriend helped me out. Sucks we broke up but she saved me. Very few people like us get out so let's cherish it and try to help out our brothers and sisters
I think this song is the best piece of music that mankind has ever produced, I'm not very old, but idk, there's just something else about it that no other artist has ever recreated for me, personally.
It is not if you fall-it is how you get back up!!
what were you doing with a bag of tar?
My brother was a drug addict, he died two days before Christmas last year. It had been ten years since the last time I saw him, he left home to make it big in LA.
He hadn't called home in almost two years, today we got the cause of death. Pneumonia, from severe autoimmune deficiency.
He had AIDS, he never called because he didn't want mom to know.
He did a lot of stupid stuff in his life, but there was always the possibility of a better future somewhere down the line.
This song and others will always remind me of him, and how there are people out there that just want to belong.
Love others, appreciate them, and help them when they're down.
I'm sorry about your brother.Thank you for sharing his story because there are just so so many people struggling & even more ashamed to admit it.Your words are beautiful & I hope everyone reading them will listen.I'm sure your brother found the peace he was longing for & he is proud of you for sending words of encouragement to others and trying to make a difference.Take care🌠
Wow, so sorry for your loss🙏🏽
Yes!!

Yea we’re here as of 5/19/4 ‼️
As a retired heroin junkie who got out of that nightmare and has been off dope for 2 and 1/2 years this song hits the soul.

Bro, I listen to this like 3 times a day.
So much emotion. A song that'll always remind me of the times I felt the same way. Thanks you guys so much !
RIP to all those taken by the demon called heroin.
I love you Alison my beloved sister you will be missed.
Edit: Please seek help if you are struggling with any addiction. No matter what your family says... no matter what anyone says including yourself. ... it is so hard to do it alone. If you try you will most likely end up gone alone. Find someone or something that can guide you. Not the demon that has you sucked in.

Thinks about those I've lost to overdose. The ones that continue to overdose, but just can't seem to quit. And me constantly struggling not to use, and sometimes I fall down. Makes me weep listening to this song.

Jev's Dad well said bro.
Yes they still resonate with me from growing up, 90s raves and alternative rock....those were the days ....candy Flippin, Dj Gary O,Paul Oakin fold, and trip screens
I have a strong resonance with this song, which runs through my entire teenage years. Imagine a 17-year-old lonely child walking under a bridge on Christmas Eve, listening to this song and welcoming the arrival of the New Year alone. It's so sad. Then, when I went to college, I stayed away from my hometown and went to school outside. Every night, I miss everything in my hometown. Now I have grown up. This song also accompanies me every time I feel lonely. Under the bridge of the Red Pepper, like the continuation of life, I think this song will accompany me through the loneliness and fragility of my life😢😢😢😢❤❤❤

@@Max-zg2ciYour pops is also correct. Zeppelin and those old classic rock bands are the greatest of all time.
It's funny how pain is easier to accept through a song than someone actually saying that they're hurting.
Probably because we are seeing it through the lens of the fact that they cared enough to turn their emotion into art. That has an inherent authenticity.
Music allows for objective catharsis imo
That's a hell of an insight
Probably because you find comfort in seeing that other people are or have gone through the same thing you're going through.
Yeah it's better when people can be sad and entertaining at rhe same time. Less selfish.
Understand this…. This my song frfr I love it to this day. ❤❤❤❤
One minute for those who can’t find this song
Sometimes I feel like I don't have a partner
Sometimes I feel like my only friend
Is the city I live in, the city of angels
Lonely as I am, together we cry
I drive on her streets 'cause she's my companion
I walk through her hills 'cause she knows who I am
She sees my good deeds and she kisses me windy
Well, I never worry, now that is a lie
I don't ever wanna feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
I don't ever wanna feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's hard to believe that there's nobody out there
It's hard to believe that I'm all alone
At least I have her love, the city, she loves me
Lonely as I am, together we cry
I don't ever wanna feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
I don't ever wanna feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, no, no-no, yeah, yeah
Love me, I say, yeah yeah
One time
Is where I drew some blood
(Under the bridge downtown)
I could not get enough
(Under the bridge downtown)
Forgot about my love
(Under the bridge downtown)
I gave my life away
Yeah, yeah
Oh, no, no-no-no, yeah, yeah
Oh, no, I said, oh, yeah, yeah
Where I stay
The chorus at the end is so 70's disco
❤
The people that don't know the lyrics have never FELT this song!!
@@albinorhino8732 it's even more relatable when you've been through addiction as well.. most heroin addicts and ex addicts like myself will never forget the first time they draw blood in to a needle and shoot up.. I know I haven't.
@@Teknomancer1147 dang, I'm sorry to hear that. Yet, the most important thing is u are no longer on drugs. Everyone has a purpose in life and one of yours is to share your testimony with others. You'll stay in my prayers, may God bless u and your family 🙏🏾❤

Excellent comment. Keep it up
❤️
You are mandela effected.
Everybody remember the lyrics, like you wrote them.
I also remember 'angels'(pleural).
But in this reality, it's just: ..'is the city I live in, the city of Angel'
@bimo Muzakki 👍👍👍👍
U legend
This song always brings tears to my eyes, it takes me back 15 years, when Vancouver, BC was my city, a city where I knew what it was like to be poor, to be alone, to struggle to eat, where I had the most difficult moments but also the best memories of my youth, the city that I love so much. Now here in my office in my homeland, listening to this song, the tears come back remembering those times.
this may be one of the most perfect songs ever written. I grew up listening to underground hiphop, but this sound is undeniably soothing and the melodies make me happy and sad at the same damn time... I love this song so much, because it moves me. physically and emotionally.
Everytime.
It's up there.... I'd say "Soul to Squeeze" as well. Love them both. My favorites anyways.
There is nothing better than saying goodbye to the year listening to the band that helped me in my hardest moments, thank you very much for everything rhcp and happy new year to everyone
Pene
Couldn't agree more
Perfect song for New Year's Eve.
That’s what’s up
I'm 14 yrs old listening to them I love them same here that helped me through thick and thin I js want to say God bless all of you have anwonderful blessed well being day. If ur going through an addiction stay strong you'll get through it. Thank you rhcp for your wonderful music.byou guys are a legend
0:00 - 0:28 One of the best and greatest rock intros. I just could listen to it and nothing else.
Massimiliano Massarenti. no
Alan Araujo no what?
This and Pearl Jam-Yellow Ledbetter are great intros.
I like stairway to Heaven
Alan Araujo Me too. *Stairway to Heaven* is a rock legend. But also _Under the Bridge_ is a good piece. ;)
The lead singer reminds me of a guy I went to college with in 1994! The long hair and sweet face. 😊
Singing this after footy training along with 5 mates on our walk home a week after it was released....memories
Fun fact: the climactic soprano harmony heard at the end is in fact John Frusciantes mother and some of her friends from the church choir lending backing vocals.
nice
amazing!
That's pretty cool. Never knew that!!!!
That's awesome! Thanks
That's nut fun at all
Just kidding thansk for the info
Every time I hear this song it brings me back to my daughter. We would have long talks about her addiction. Living on the street I never stopped looking for her. I miss her terribly.
Damn, I Hope you have peace in your heart, keep strong!
I hope you get to find her back.
Send you my love brother I can relate 🙏
keep the faith
Blessings mayne. addiction is a disease. Hope you get your baby back. Love
this song would have never seen the light of day if Rick Rubin had not urged Anthony to share the unfinished song with the rest of the band one day while the two of them were visiting each other. There is something mesmerizing and primal about Anthony kedis physicality, his body movements..it is almost as important as the music in this piece.
That's creepy
They dont make music like this anymore
It sucks
They do its just harder too find now cus no one is filtering out the bullshit we used to have djs that would show us the good stuff keep searching brother music never dies just the will to live
You guys seriously don’t gotta ask if we’re still here in 2022, we’ll be here for the peppers in 2080, all of your songs are absolutely timeless and my aunt who just passed not too long ago got me into you guys, every time I hear any peppers song I almost cry now, tied to really good memories, Anthony, flea, all of the boys, thank you for your work, it’s very important to me
When you hear the chillipeppers I believe you're aunt still lives on not in person but in spirit but she lives on through you I lost one of my best friends to cancer I always remember him through Pantera like he is there with me
So ask again in 2080?
Rest in Peace
Dude we see the top comment stop copying comments dork lmao
🤘
2024 anyone?
YES! HOLY SHIT.
This songs reminds me off my herion addiction I had when I was younger
thank god they are still alive
Except for Hillel Slovak unfortunately.
*F*
Frusciante is dead. RIP
@@Kaputzcr He's alive
Don’t jinx it, man.
love how they tease flea coming into the song near the beginning: he's all contemplative, touches the bass strings, then is like "nah, let's give it another verse"
Under the bridge should never be forgotten!! 😮 classic❤
Who listen this song in 2016? I LOVE THIS SONG
Me
Me !
me..allways loved it
Man, it feels crazy because I've been a RHCP fan since I was like 11 because I liked how they sound, yet now that I'm an adult I'm finally paying attention and understanding the lyrics and I feel like I became a fan all over again.
Same. Growing up it was just on. Now I’m really appreciating their music
Yeah, i get that type of feeling from time to time too
I’m sooo right there with u was a kid n just loved the sound now going back n reading the lyrics I’m like oh welll ok then lol
Glad to feel that im not alone in this. Cheers my friends :)
What's your favorite song by them?
Anyone listening to this in 2034, in their pyjamas around teatime?
Alguien más por acá que considere es la rola de su soundtrack de su vida? Jaja una de mis canciones favoritas de todos los tiempos!
jajajaja literal mi soundtrack,una de las mejores canciones de los RHCP
Mental illness is no joke.
I’ve been fighting everyday of my life. I’m only 20 and I’m feeling stuck. I nearly died in December but I’m still here fighting like I always have. I’ll never give up.
Please if you see this and you’re struggling, keep fighting I believe in you.
Your vulnerability is awesome
@@Bb-bw9ci ❤️
stay strong!
Peace bro
Tell me about it. I was looking for bridge songs. 😂
Who else is glad that John is back?
Fav song from them. Got me thru some heavy shit. 🖤
You know a song is good when it hits harder the older you get. 💞👌😊👍
[Verse 1]
Sometimes I feel like I don't have a partner
Sometimes I feel like my only friend
Is the city I live in, The City of Angels
Lonely as I am, together we cry
[Verse 2]
I drive on her streets 'cause she's my companion
I walk through her hills 'cause she knows who I am
She sees my good deeds and she kisses me windy
Well, I never worry, now that is a lie
[Chorus]
I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love, take me all the way
I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love, take me all the way
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 3]
It's hard to believe that there's nobody out there
It's hard to believe that I'm all alone
At least I have her love, the city she loves me
Lonely as I am, together we cry
[Chorus]
I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love, take me all the way
I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love, take me all the way
[Bridge]
Yeah, yeah yeah
Oh, no, no, no, yeah, yeah
Love me, I say, yeah, yeah
(One time)
[Outro]
(Under the bridge downtown)
Is where I drew some blood
(Under the bridge downtown)
I could not get enough
(Under the bridge downtown)
Forgot about my love
(Under the bridge downtown)
I gave my life away, yeah
Yeah, yeah
(Away)
Oh, no, no no no, yeah yeah
(Away)
Oh no, I said oh, yeah yeah
(Away)
Where I'll stay
That's a nice bit of writing you should turn that into a son-
Waaaaait A minnnnnute
@@nolesy34 LOL
He now says the city of angel
Ask yourself how many times you heard this on the radio bumping out of people’s cars
How many times you sang along by yourself and with others
Even when it’s not playing and you just sing it to yourself..
That is not a coincidence
Now it still says angles in written lyrics and in lives and covers , BUT we didn’t learn the city of angels from a cover or a one off live did we?
Thanks for the lyrics. All these years I thought he was singing "under the mistletoe is where I drew some blood..." No wonder that part never made any sense to me. 😂😂
Thank
Guitarist John Frusciante's mother sang the haunting backup on this song, along with two of her friends from church.
Hello, how are you doing?
@@lucasanthony3805 Creepy.
Oh
Wow
That's good to know!
