I've watched this video, pretty much ever since it was posted. I've had it in my favorites for some time, because I absolutely love it. I think you all did an extremely good rendition of this great song. This video equals pure blissful love and energy. Keep up the great work you all.
Well, it's one of my favourites as well, and I can tell you, you've done an amazing job! I especially liked the fills, and the bassline :D it's great, I'm really amazed.
This is fricking awesome guys'! Keep us the good work! And Anthony Kiedis has one of the greatest voices out there, because it is good, and it is real, unlike most singers.
Im so glad i came across this video. Well, my favourite song being sung in capella. Hehe.. Really enjoying it. Especially the opening and chorus. Well, 5 stars for the rating..
wow, you guys are awesome. you can barely see him, but there's this really handsome short dude on the right side. what a bass voice that man has. the soloist is great also.
this is one of my favorite songs ever... this was covered so well. i rarely comment on things and this is one time where i have to show my appreciation for a job well done
All of you guys are complaining about the lead, but I actually like it better. He did it his own way, and it sounds very smooth. Just because he doesn't imitate Kiedis (probably spelled his last name wrong) exactly does not mean he is bad.
We're not a choir, we're an a cappella group. There are lots of differences, but the biggest is repertoire choice-- we don't do "choir" pieces, we perform contemporary songs arranged for voices.
I think I have a grip. I am also in college and it may sound extremely surprising, but I'm in an acapella group too. Some songs require class. You wouldn't do touchdown dances for a song like Green Day's "Good Riddance," why would you do it to this song?
no no no, you are wrong and obviously have not seen the video for the original, much less the lyrics. this is taking a somewhat heavy topic and adding the chili peppers to it, which includes silliness. it is not a somber song.. it's more "chill" than anything.
Not to toot my own horn here, but this comment is wildly inaccurate. Top public schools like Michigan, UVA, and Berkley are extremely competitive, as are non-Ivy league schools such as Stanford, Amherst, and Williams. Take a look at the average admissions requirements for matriculating students and think again about the overall quality of American schools.
The idotic dancing does not match the melody nor lyrics. Most Red Hot Chili Peppers' songs WOULD need a touch of silliness, but this one in particular is extremely somber and serious.
Good video, but cyn, are you just a noob? I think this is great because there are no instruments and only vocals are used, you wouldn't really understand, i suppose you have a narrow mind of the concept of music, "2 guitars 1 bass 1 drummer and a singer".
to be honest why do you want a good vocalist for this song! Anthony sings it very well. to be honest, this guy is a great singer but he destroys it! sorry folks but why be dramatic when you can be simple.
It was a pretty good performance with good blending and feeling... until the soloist (who must've been the only one to try out for the part) started dancing around like a moron. If I were in that group, once we'd gotten of stage I'd beat the crap out of that kid for ruining the performance.
Well, the background is interesting but it sounds more like a Lion King rendition of the song. The vocalist was a terrible match. Just sounded nothing like Keadis and it sounded like pretentious choir boy singing. Use greater prudence next time. Also, don't dance like a tool.
that was gd, but lets be honest...its a bunch of geeks singing the red hot chili peppers, thats just not cool. oh god, when he dances, definitly not cool.
That was so Cool. I always love hearing cover versions of my favorite songs. This song always reminds me of going to the York Fair in September.
That was an awsome tribute to one of the most beautiful songs ever!......thank you so much.

Lol that was wayyy better than what i was expecting. Nice job guys.

Goddamn you guys and gals actually kicked ass. Very well done to all of you, very well sung and I loved the backing music and vocals.
Video uploaded in 2006 and all the comments are at least 5 years old. I wonder what these guys are up to now.

That was amazing! Great job :D

Still listening to this in 2023.

bien hecho cabros, lograron una atmosfera perfecta como para emocionar. los felicito a todos
awesome.
The Intro is dope as hell!
I beg to differ. We all thought it was pretty hilarious and that he added a nice touch of energy and silliness to the performance.
I like all the singers
woah dude!
its elvis!
uh huh uh huh thankyou very much
great!
perfect perfect perfect :)
awesome
yeahhhhh!!!! rhcp rocks forever!
muy bueno!!!!!
We're not a choir, we're an a cappella group. There are lots of differences, but the biggest is repertoire choice-- we don't do "choir" pieces, we perform contemporary songs arranged for voices.
I wish I was there
TWO THUMBS UP!!!!!! AMAZING!!!
I like the way Anthony sings it in a laid back manner. This guy is singing it pitch perfect, but to forcefully.
lol i love the dancing
I dig it, everybody has their own style and the soloists is good (bad spelling) really gonna try and get my choir to do it
that was amazing, rhcp would be proud
amazing, i love it, too bad the video cuts out before the last note
Exelllllllllllllent!
OH MAN! WHO'S THAT DREAMBOAT!!!!!!1111
well done
wow!
... nothing else i can say.
this man is fabulous!Can anybody tell me when was it shown in Williams?
what is it plz tell me!
why didnt you do the bass guitar part too?
Bardzo mi się podoba
My a cappella group sings this, but it's a different arrangement. Not too different though! Great job.
Kid, calm down and get a grip. Lighten up and realize that we're just a bunch of college kids having fun.
It's a COVER. Meaning their own version. That should be clear since you don't see a drummer, bassist or guitarist.
hahaha awesome.
I think this is awesome :) and I think that the lead singer is amazing, I don't think it's terrible at all :)
sounds like he sings the last verse differently from what I've seen published, but I really can't make it out....
don't hate. appreciate! that was pretty freaking good! i bet you couldn't do that.

this is gorgous (if i could spell gorgous :@) great sound
Ahaha
The lead guys
Dancing :)

@underlier I agree
dude, i am thirteen years old.
I don't think i need to worry about typing, do you?
Jesus Christ honestly!!
My first impression was rubbish, but this is great! xD 5/5
"choosed one of my favorite songs" that sounds stupid, its "chose one of my favorite songs, this doesn'[t suck either
lol cool!
I prefer RHCP's original version as this, but it sound cool.
@underlier he doesn't have the pitch high as Kiedis has.... it's not his fault, i think he couldn't do better than this...

Something tells me that this would sound better with fewer people.
the lead singer should not have been the lead singer, everything else is pretty killer
ha this is brilliant. wouldve been great with anthony instead. the beats are great though
Good job, but Holy Dork!.....great dance moves.... :P
y wud i wnna du tht?
i cn sing decent enouff but i dnt joiin no gay choir!!
but if tht ur music i hav 2 respect u 4 it!
o yea i dnt mean 2 dis!!
I think he is the definition of a white guy. 3:00 Great performance despite the..."Dancing".
LOL
the lead singer is way to heavy on it with his voice, the lead singer needs to be smoother and lighter with it
Didnt really like the lead vocals. everyone sounded great though
lolol
he's good as crap, what are you smoking buddy?
yeah i copied and pasted it off him you tool, note that is the American way of saying it...
At least learn different spelling combinations xD
The idotic dancing does not match the melody nor lyrics. Most Red Hot Chili Peppers' songs WOULD need a touch of silliness, but this one in particular is extremely somber and serious.

no it isn't, listen closer

The lead singer ain't THAT bad :/
stop singing like old man river, haha whatever pretty sweet though
that was gd, but lets be honest...its a bunch of geeks singing the red hot chili peppers, thats just not cool.
oh god, when he dances,
definitly not cool.
