Under The Bridge' is an absolute classic that captures the raw emotion of isolation and longing for connection. Anthony Kiedis' vocals, combined with the hauntingly beautiful guitar riff, create a timeless atmosphere that hits deep every time. The song takes you on a journey through the soul of Los Angeles, expressing both the highs and lows of life in the city. It’s a powerful reminder of vulnerability and finding your way through moments of loneliness. Truly a masterpiece that never gets old.

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....
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
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
Struggling with alcoholism for the majority of my 20's, I'm proud to be 16 months sober. Every sober day is a blessing from Christ. This song still makes me feel every emotion, so grateful for it!
This was one of the first music video my dad showed me. Red Hot Chili Peppers was one of his favorite bands to listen to , he passed away last year . I still cant believe hes gone. Love you dad ,forever, rest in peace. You're in a better place ❤
Fr come hop in my time machine and go back to the good times screw this modern age shit hell, I was born in 2000 and know this generation is going to shii!
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...
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.
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.
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.
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
@@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.
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.
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.
That chorus gives me goosebumps... How many moments of despair, hopelessness and tragic fates like the one described hasn't the world seen? Great lyrics
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.
Ima full blown drug addict who's gots MAD mental health issues and I'm trying to get my life straightened out cause I've had so much fucking shit happen to me thru my life. I been doing drugs since I was 14 but I used hard shit when I was 18. I've never stopped a day since then cause it controlled me and I can't even tell you the trauma, abuse and illegal bullshit that's happened. But ima try to get off but I hate but I love it at the same time. Something's gotta give.
I need to tell everyone about my 7th grade history teacher. He’s not dead or anything, and I’m writing this because I saw someone write about theirs. I’m in 8th grade now, but he was absolutely brilliant and he was hilarious and almost said some pretty inappropriate words but caught himself. He loved to play 80’s music. He liked to play RHCP too. It would always be while we did our work, and it helped. Especially with this song and Toto’s Africa. Mr. Hunter was also a great guy and I felt safe in his classroom despite being in a same-sex relationship somewhat openly. He is the only reason why I love history now. Mr. Hunter, if you’re out there, keep listening and keep teaching.

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'
I'm black but in the 10th grade while in a alternative class my teacher Mr Matthews played a few rock songs for me. He seen how hooked i was so he burnt a cd for me and this song was on it. Thank you Mr.Matthews for introducing me to Red Hot Chili Peppers

The intro to this song could not be any more perfect at describing the feeling of addiction. It sounds so beautiful but at the same time you know there’s something wrong with the ascending and descending through the notes. And that slide man. That slide is where it takes you for a whirl. So happy that this song exists to help me cope with what I’ve been through and this will forever be the anthem for recovery.
The guitar has always this emotion description in RHCP. Its just amazing and makes us reflect. Be strong. My problem is alcohol i tottaly understand you
I was 13 or 14 yo when this video came on MTV and it changed me forever. Now my husband and I bring our toddler to their shows anytime they are in Chicago. I am grateful for how this bands music continues to make my life full of joy. I always come to this song for strength. The origin is epic also never know how a poem in a notebook can change the trajectory of all our lives. Thank you RR and AK❤
Me too, Im 41 been clean for 5 years. The corruption never leaves but it's gotten a lot easier since I had a baby boy born 2 years ago. Stick with it bro
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.
A girl I sat next to in Grade 7, we both liked this song. The last time I saw her was the last day of Primary school in 1992, and every time I hear this song, I remember her.
Back in Tempe Arizona 2010 this smokin hot fox named Nicole sat next to me in an astronomy class and we would go to my place and smoke and vibe to Red Hot. She’s the one that got away. Where ever you are now I hope you feel the same
I've been fighting with addictions for a while now. I had the pleasure of going to one of their concerts and being able to see them there, live, knowing were they come from in life really gave me strength.
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🌠
@@tomergdalyahoo3902 you take care too sweetie.Never think for one second that nobody cares & you're all alone.I know there is a lot of bad in the world but there is still a shit ton of good also.xxxxx🧚♀️💗🖤💗🖤
I realized I hit rock bottom when this song came on the radio and I cried harder than I have cried in my entire life. It felt so good to just finally be able to cry like that. The lyrics are to be interoperated but as an addict who lost someone very special to me this song was exactly what I needed to hear at that moment in my life. I've heard this song a million times and never even almost cried. But that day it completely broke me and now I love it more than ever. I truly never want to feel the way I did that day but it's important to remember none the less.
That's what this song does bring people down...satans music you know because it's amazing...and Satan is the master or lore and music...don't believe me do you .thinking I'm crazy. Go to 1:48 and play it at a 25 speed.. then pause It and play it until the locust alien slash Satan figures appear..your now awake
@@Bridging_the_Political_Divide your afraid to go to 1:48 of the song and do what I ask becuause you dont want to see but its there...its like an alien locust thing they worship...i hate it too there music is amazing trust me but it is what it is
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
This song is so good it's hard to believe it's the RHCP. It curb stomps everything in their entire catalog. It's like they had this singular magical moment of absolute brilliance...and then they wrote "Give it Away".
I still come back once and a while. This song is dedicated to all those that are trying to beat addiction. Me being one. I was always trying to run from life. Never facing it. When I play this song I sing it out as if was the one that it was made for. Brings tears to me everytime.
I feel like people don’t know this song is about Anthony’s heroin addiction and so many people don’t give the song the appreciation it deserves, this song had an impact on so many people.
it was pretty well known in the 90s. They talked alot about in interview, VH1 behind the music, where are the now, pop up video and lots of other shows.
I listened to this song during my darkest days. Heroin addiction had me by a hold so strong, I gave my entire life away over and over again. Giving more than I had to give. I finally checked myself into detox and by the Grace of God, am 5 days sober. 5 days. I know it seems small, but it's everything to me. Now I can listen to this song with tears of happiness. Thank you RHCP, I couldn't have done it without songs like this one. We do get better.
As a fellow addict (stoner, alcoholic, and nicotine) godspeed. I'm here because I'm still not in a good place and probably never will be, but 5 days without something so hardcore is astounding. I believe in you.
Please keep trying. Even if you fall down again. I’m 5yrs this week. Which was completely impossible to think of from where I was. I Failed so many times but kept going. It can happen.
Those first few days are the longest. They get shorter and shorter, easier and easier. It will never leave you but you'll eventually get to a point where you like the new things about yourself enough that you don't want to go back to the old things. You got this, head up, be proud, you're doing the right thing, keep it up. So many people are so proud of you.
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.
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.
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
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.
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Under The Bridge ♪～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
I found this song after falling into a incredibly rough patch in my life. I didn't know what I wanted and I'd often think about how I wanted to just end my life no matter what. Once I heard this song, I was in actual tears. Everything about it is just therapeutic and amazing and it made me realise that even though it seemed like nothing was ever gonna happen to me, I knew I had to make something happen so, I went to my sister and picked up her bass guitar that she never used and I started playing Seven Nation Army. Now, I'm playing guitar and my life has never been as good as this. I can't say how much credit I can give to Anthony, John, Flea and Chad for helping me live and find the right path.
In 1992 my father died and I remember feeling "I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day" so hard - and I linked it with how it bad I felt during the time my father was sick and when he finally died in April 1992. But later it became something I referred to as I became more heavily dependent on sedatives and alcohol. Having to withdraw from benzos, alcohol, and other narcotics was so painful that each time I endured that struggle - that line came to mind. I did it over and over again, until in 2015 I quit drugs and alcohol for good. I still miss my father, as being without him comes to 30 years.
May he rest in paradise, stay strong and never lose motivation i can really relate to that one lyric as my mother passed this year and no i definetly dont wana feel like i did that day.
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.
[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 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 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 [Verse 2] 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 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 [Verse 3] 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, yeah yeah Where I stay
I was supposed to go see these guys last year with my dad. My dad got really sick a week before the concert and had to be taken to the hospital. He nearly didn’t make it. I’m so thankful for his recovery. I hope I get to see them in the future with my dad.
My late mother and I used to jam out to this song just enjoying those simple moments of peace.. hearing this classic always brings me back to those days
Never appreciated this song until I went through a major addiction with multiple substances. Years later and 2 plus years off suboxone (worst withdrawal I’ve ever experienced) it hits my soul in a positive way.
You don’t get many artists or groups who come along these days who can, in my opinion, come up with great rifts, music, solos, and lyrics. Love this group since the early 90’s n will probably go to the grave with song on my head stone blasting
My daughter’s favorite song from her favorite band. She passed from an overdose 7 years ago. Only 22. I listen almost everyday to this. And the tears still sting my eyes
@@VinB-w9c I'm so sorry! You will probably never get this but it's 2024 September. I'm in Seattle and I just wanted to say my 27 year old son died last summer of a Fentanyl od. We used to sit around and he strum along and we would sing out loud to 90's bands. My favorite was Kurt and his was Layne but we would listen to everything from 60's rock to today s rap. He was my heart. I tried again today to pack some stuff but I picked up his gaming headset and it's soft and I could still smell his hair on it and it literally collapsed me. So there's that. But we go on to fight another day.
I've struggled with a heroin addiction for years and this song helped me get through the withdrawals I thank God for giving me strength cause I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
I was introduced to this song by my 4th grade teacher. Once a week or so, he'd bring his guitar to class, put the lyrics up on the overhead projector and the whole class would sing the lyrics while he played guitar. I'll never forget how awesome his class was and what a great teacher he was. This always has and always will have such an impact on me. ❤
I find it weird that you all find it weird. The lyrics don't directly say anything that a 10 year old would deem inappropriate. I went to a prominent school and the teacher won multiple awards for his skills in teaching. I'm sorry you all had a boring childhood.
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.
This song hits on so many different levels most people don't understand the real meaning of this song Under the bridge downtown is where I drew some blood I have there in my life I remember being homeless and hopeless on drugs doing a shit under a bridge without a care in the world thank God I am clean now and no longer homeless and hopeless but hearing this song brings back alot of memories and reminds me how far I've come if anyone Is out there down bad on there luck just know I'm rooting for you and there is always light at the end of the tunnel no pun intended lol
Yup, a few of us do, used 4 times since Christmas although on Monday I got a massive big rush then was itching badly for a day and that’s been the case for the past two times and luckily enough I’m really losing my love for it……..just doesn’t make me feel good anymore I rather go out socialise drinking on weekends meeting people and pulling if I’m lucky enough, Choose life 😉
There's a UA-cam channel: Professor of Rock who did a video on this subject telling about the desperate depths of drug addiction, loss, and eventually inspiration that lead to this song.
@@gamingclipsofficialaccount6430 Those are all great songs man, but to be honest Man Under The Bridge is a super important song to me at least, I have more personal connection with it, but that’s not to discredit any of those, all bangers you listed brother!

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

Under The Bridge' is an absolute classic that captures the raw emotion of isolation and longing for connection. Anthony Kiedis' vocals, combined with the hauntingly beautiful guitar riff, create a timeless atmosphere that hits deep every time. The song takes you on a journey through the soul of Los Angeles, expressing both the highs and lows of life in the city. It’s a powerful reminder of vulnerability and finding your way through moments of loneliness. Truly a masterpiece that never gets old.
It’s about heroine addiction too though
I’m pretty sure the city is a metaphor for heroine
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
Trips it’s about drug addiction
@@oodeezydeezy6629 Hi ! It's deeper thant that it's about loneliness

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

sometimes the saddest songs are the most beautiful happy song......new life.....new bridge....thanks RHCP
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.

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
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.

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.

That chorus gives me goosebumps... How many moments of despair, hopelessness and tragic fates like the one described hasn't the world seen? Great lyrics
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.
Ima full blown drug addict who's gots MAD mental health issues and I'm trying to get my life straightened out cause I've had so much fucking shit happen to me thru my life. I been doing drugs since I was 14 but I used hard shit when I was 18. I've never stopped a day since then cause it controlled me and I can't even tell you the trauma, abuse and illegal bullshit that's happened. But ima try to get off but I hate but I love it at the same time. Something's gotta give.

I need to tell everyone about my 7th grade history teacher. He’s not dead or anything, and I’m writing this because I saw someone write about theirs. I’m in 8th grade now, but he was absolutely brilliant and he was hilarious and almost said some pretty inappropriate words but caught himself. He loved to play 80’s music. He liked to play RHCP too. It would always be while we did our work, and it helped. Especially with this song and Toto’s Africa. Mr. Hunter was also a great guy and I felt safe in his classroom despite being in a same-sex relationship somewhat openly. He is the only reason why I love history now. Mr. Hunter, if you’re out there, keep listening and keep teaching.
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
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

Forgot about my love

I gave my life away

Oh, no, I said, oh, yeah, yeah
Where I stay

Lost my Dad at 17 to a heroin addiction. I love this song as did he ❤️ I'll be 37 in September. Lost him March 6,2004 💔

@@daniellechapman1897 bless your heart hon, ill be 70 on 9.10.23, i guess im lucky..i was addicted to it for 35 of those years
From 93, here November 2024 and I'll be back multiple times every year till I pass💯💪🏼❤️
The intro to this song could not be any more perfect at describing the feeling of addiction. It sounds so beautiful but at the same time you know there’s something wrong with the ascending and descending through the notes. And that slide man. That slide is where it takes you for a whirl. So happy that this song exists to help me cope with what I’ve been through and this will forever be the anthem for recovery.
It sounds melancholy
The guitar has always this emotion description in RHCP. Its just amazing and makes us reflect. Be strong. My problem is alcohol i tottaly understand you
I know what you mean I was addicted to heroin and fentanyl for years.. But I finally kicked it and been clean for a year and a half now

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 :)

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🌠

I realized I hit rock bottom when this song came on the radio and I cried harder than I have cried in my entire life. It felt so good to just finally be able to cry like that. The lyrics are to be interoperated but as an addict who lost someone very special to me this song was exactly what I needed to hear at that moment in my life. I've heard this song a million times and never even almost cried. But that day it completely broke me and now I love it more than ever. I truly never want to feel the way I did that day but it's important to remember none the less.
Powerful. ❤️
That's what this song does bring people down...satans music you know because it's amazing...and Satan is the master or lore and music...don't believe me do you .thinking I'm crazy.

I listened to this song during my darkest days. Heroin addiction had me by a hold so strong, I gave my entire life away over and over again. Giving more than I had to give. I finally checked myself into detox and by the Grace of God, am 5 days sober. 5 days. I know it seems small, but it's everything to me. Now I can listen to this song with tears of happiness. Thank you RHCP, I couldn't have done it without songs like this one. We do get better.
As a fellow addict (stoner, alcoholic, and nicotine) godspeed. I'm here because I'm still not in a good place and probably never will be, but 5 days without something so hardcore is astounding.
I believe in you.
@@jakeking974 i do too brother! At least one of us has to make it out.
Please keep trying. Even if you fall down again. I’m 5yrs this week. Which was completely impossible to think of from where I was. I Failed so many times but kept going. It can happen.
Those first few days are the longest. They get shorter and shorter, easier and easier. It will never leave you but you'll eventually get to a point where you like the new things about yourself enough that you don't want to go back to the old things. You got this, head up, be proud, you're doing the right thing, keep it up. So many people are so proud of you.
Stay strong. If you have to. Keep fighting for your life. You are worth it.
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

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Under The Bridge
♪～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
I agree that it used to be "angels" but this mandela affected reality has changed it to "angel"
I found this song after falling into a incredibly rough patch in my life. I didn't know what I wanted and I'd often think about how I wanted to just end my life no matter what. Once I heard this song, I was in actual tears. Everything about it is just therapeutic and amazing and it made me realise that even though it seemed like nothing was ever gonna happen to me, I knew I had to make something happen so, I went to my sister and picked up her bass guitar that she never used and I started playing Seven Nation Army. Now, I'm playing guitar and my life has never been as good as this. I can't say how much credit I can give to Anthony, John, Flea and Chad for helping me live and find the right path.
14 years ago I would watch this on mtv in the morning before going to school. Oh how the times have changed.
In 1992 my father died and I remember feeling "I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day" so hard - and I linked it with how it bad I felt during the time my father was sick and when he finally died in April 1992. But later it became something I referred to as I became more heavily dependent on sedatives and alcohol. Having to withdraw from benzos, alcohol, and other narcotics was so painful that each time I endured that struggle - that line came to mind. I did it over and over again, until in 2015 I quit drugs and alcohol for good. I still miss my father, as being without him comes to 30 years.
RIP
Stay Strong
Stay strong and know others care about you!
May he rest in paradise, stay strong and never lose motivation i can really relate to that one lyric as my mother passed this year and no i definetly dont wana feel like i did that day.
Gods speed brah
@Donnagelina stay strong
Love how This Was A poem Anthony Wrote and when his Boys Found it and Said we Gotta make this A song.I Know it Saved Antony's life.God Bless
And they’ve saved mine
It normally takes listening a few times to warm up to a song. This is one of the only songs I just loved first time hearing.
Same here
Me too!
There are more from this amazing band...
It normally doesn't, wtf are you talking about. Either it's good or it's not.
@Prayingmantis 211 I mean this music is good, I enjoy many of their music. But that ,I'm a hipster audiophile' shit is just dumb
11/14/2024....I'm 47 years old and this song will die with me. RHCP....stay golden!
Look at his hair, it's a gift from God.
Vincent Gomez its a god from gift
Vincent Gomez no, he is god
Aether Cake
Jesus Christ reancarnated 😒
Absolutely!!😍
He's a gift from god not just his hair...a big piece of eye candy
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!!!
RHCP❤
the boys did the same in another car unfortunately don’t make it because the car crashed and they all died. A magical time.
@@Carakav i love u anthony♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
This song from them is my all time favorite. It hits hard every time I listen to it and can relate. ❤
This song brings back memories
Tony Hodgin what memories bro?
Tom Hallam The memories of the early 90's
Tony Hodgin
Indeed
this is fucking sick
Hard to believe this is 30+ years old. Still a classic. High school memories.
I feel like I am back in high school when I hear this song.
Same thing our pops used to say when listening to the Stones or Led haha….crazy how fast times change
fun fact is that YT auto subs say "my older friend" ... is it me or is "my only friend". 🤔
@@microsaurio169My only friend. I'm from LA and its the city of the angels all right, the fallen ones.. No lie
@@Max-zg2ciYour pops is also correct. Zeppelin and those old classic rock bands are the greatest of all time.
I'm so happy you survived...after my dad died it got dark for me too. This song is a testimony 🙌🏾 you won
The older u get this is more of a tear jerker. Remembering lost souls
Lost slot of friends to brown and still dont understand why I've always been brought back from OD's and my dear friends have not been so lucky 😥😥😥
@@stevenewton2003 Yeah... I hear ya'.
[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
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
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
[Verse 2]
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
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
[Verse 3]
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, yeah yeah
Where I stay
God bless you
he acually doesn't say "angels" he says "angel" weird right?
Is amazing how a song that have more than 3 decades hit on me with all the force in 2018 when I left my home alone.
I was supposed to go see these guys last year with my dad. My dad got really sick a week before the concert and had to be taken to the hospital. He nearly didn’t make it. I’m so thankful for his recovery. I hope I get to see them in the future with my dad.
phew you scared me
Hug
Who else is glad that John is back?
My late mother and I used to jam out to this song just enjoying those simple moments of peace.. hearing this classic always brings me back to those days
Sorry for your loss man
Thank you for that 🙏@@_r3verie
Never appreciated this song until I went through a major addiction with multiple substances. Years later and 2 plus years off suboxone (worst withdrawal I’ve ever experienced) it hits my soul in a positive way.
You don’t get many artists or groups who come along these days who can, in my opinion, come up with great rifts, music, solos, and lyrics. Love this group since the early 90’s n will probably go to the grave with song on my head stone blasting
What a powerful song!! It still touches me to this day. One of the greatest songs of all time ⚘
oi , vc fala portugues , vc e americana d parte d mundo vc fala
Oasis? Where!? I LOVE OASIS
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. ;)
My daughter’s favorite song from her favorite band. She passed from an overdose 7 years ago. Only 22. I listen almost everyday to this. And the tears still sting my eyes
@@VinB-w9c I'm so sorry! You will probably never get this but it's 2024 September. I'm in Seattle and I just wanted to say my 27 year old son died last summer of a Fentanyl od. We used to sit around and he strum along and we would sing out loud to 90's bands. My favorite was Kurt and his was Layne but we would listen to everything from 60's rock to today s rap. He was my heart. I tried again today to pack some stuff but I picked up his gaming headset and it's soft and I could still smell his hair on it and it literally collapsed me. So there's that. But we go on to fight another day.
I've struggled with a heroin addiction for years and this song helped me get through the withdrawals I thank God for giving me strength cause I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
2 yrs sober and going and going and going..
I like this song
Well done body. Keep being strong
Fuck yeahs bro!
the guitar intro makes me emotional, incredible song and meaning
I love this song and lyrics
Eu também amo esta música 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Congrats verified comment like baiter
@@crunchproductions2276 tq
ok
@Hunter Vonnegut Listen to me, nobody cares
My favorite uncle's song, rip uncle Felix. I Miss you 🥺.
I was introduced to this song by my 4th grade teacher. Once a week or so, he'd bring his guitar to class, put the lyrics up on the overhead projector and the whole class would sing the lyrics while he played guitar. I'll never forget how awesome his class was and what a great teacher he was. This always has and always will have such an impact on me. ❤
@@Michael-fi6ve Demented zoomer
@@Michael-fi6ve no way XDDD
@@arianaziglerWeird is the mildest teen I can think of for someone making ten-year-old kids sing about heron addiction on the weekly.
were you home schooled?
I find it weird that you all find it weird. The lyrics don't directly say anything that a 10 year old would deem inappropriate. I went to a prominent school and the teacher won multiple awards for his skills in teaching. I'm sorry you all had a boring childhood.
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.
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.
This is the best red hot chili peppers song
This song hits on so many different levels most people don't understand the real meaning of this song Under the bridge downtown is where I drew some blood I have there in my life I remember being homeless and hopeless on drugs doing a shit under a bridge without a care in the world thank God I am clean now and no longer homeless and hopeless but hearing this song brings back alot of memories and reminds me how far I've come if anyone Is out there down bad on there luck just know I'm rooting for you and there is always light at the end of the tunnel no pun intended lol
Stay strong brother 🙏
Love
Yup, a few of us do, used 4 times since Christmas although on Monday I got a massive big rush then was itching badly for a day and that’s been the case for the past two times and luckily enough I’m really losing my love for it……..just doesn’t make me feel good anymore I rather go out socialise drinking on weekends meeting people and pulling if I’m lucky enough, Choose life 😉
Read the book scar tissue by them you'll relate even more my guy
There's a UA-cam channel: Professor of Rock who did a video on this subject telling about the desperate depths of drug addiction, loss, and eventually inspiration that lead to this song.
I am a 63 yr.old Minister and this song has helped me through a painful divorce! The power of music is so amazing 🤩.
Best intro I've heard in any song. It's a pure masterpiece that will never die.
Little wing es la mejor intro
Nah, smells like teen spirit, welcome to the jungle, paranoid
@@gamingclipsofficialaccount6430 Those are all great songs man, but to be honest Man Under The Bridge is a super important song to me at least, I have more personal connection with it, but that’s not to discredit any of those, all bangers you listed brother!
