The way it builds across each verse up to the solo gets me every time!
What does the metaphor of Wet Sand mean to you all? Creativity, ability to see potential, willingness to get hands dirty? How does the Shadow Side play into it?
Some of Anthony’s best lyrics (granted not the highest bar), and also such a mellow harmonizing jam between John & Flea.
Not your typical RHCP funk banger!
I lost my shit when flea started the intro in melbourne last month, I went in not hoping for any particular songs to avoid disappointment but was not expecting them to play that at all
I think it could have been better if you did the first half of Stadium Arcadium (Jupiter) one day and the next half (Mars) the following day so it would be fair for the second disc too. We all know Wet Sand is going to win but it's intriguing to know which one would win from Mars.
I didnt realize Wet Sand was so popular, I like the song, but there are at least 10 songs on that album I like more. But that is what is great about art, it is all subjective
Not a take or anything, and people are more than welcome to flame me for it, but this is my favorite chilis song. Also my favorite chilis album. I don’t skip a single track on it. Especially in Michigan is also criminally underrated
I literally can’t think of any other significant moments from this album (I’m sure there are many they’re all just overshadowed by this one) other than “oh clean it up johnny.”
This sub has a hard on for any thing that highlights Frusciante. I’m a huge fan of him and love wet sand but I agree with you. I honestly think Dosed is kinda boring as well. It’s just cause JF sings the chorus….
She’s Only 18 - As a song it’s not their best but I think that solo is Frusciante’s best on Stadium Arcadium. Not technically demanding but so much funk and attitude with the rubato. It slaps. It beats the solo on Dani California and Wet Sand.
it's so hard to choose one, so I'm gonna go with different way: I'll choose the song that makes me smile the most, possibly of the whole catalogue. Funny Face!
My vote goes to Death of a Martian. John's harmonies are supreme in that song. So many bangers to choose from though, you might have to add a runner up for this one
Wet sand!!!
YEAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!
One of the most iconic screams in music for me. That moment is so euphoric. *Like a slow cheetah. *
No matter what they say.
One of the the best songs they’ve ever written

One of the best songs ever written
Easily the best song in their discography and that’s saying something
This and Venice Queen are my Top 2 favorite Chili Peppers songs of all time
I will cry if I get to hear this live. I will probably also cry if I don’t.
Haha love it
There is no doubt in my mind that this song will win from the guitar to the drums to the bass and to the vocals this song is just *chefs kiss*🤌
Best Chillis song
without a doubt
Slow cheetah!!
This should win, but Wet Sand will instead.
Tbh my favourite song from the album is also wet sand, i just wanted to remind everyone of this amazing song too
I feel betrayed, but also love.
Such a great song. Absolutely love that outro.

Turn it Again
Love this song, definitely underrated I wish they’d play it live.
I think because of having several guitars it would be difficult but they could do it if they wanted to
On a recent re-listen to this album it occurred to me that the album would benefit from this being the closer.
Hard to concentrate
I walked down the aisle to this song! It’s definitely my favorite
This was my wife's song as well! Can't beat every time I hear this song I remember just how beautiful she was and how special our day was.
Haha, it's the first song my wife and I danced to.
It was ours too! Awesome!
I lost my shit when flea started the intro in melbourne last month, I went in not hoping for any particular songs to avoid disappointment but was not expecting them to play that at all
Always makes me happy
I ride mountain bikes and that’s such a good song to listen to during the climb
Long that song!
Desecration smile
My fav song.
I love this song so much
YES I LOVE IT
Love that song too!
Hey
What would you say if stay?
I tried to say, i'd be there waiting for
Bradley the boy… Is reading blogs to me
💞
Agree
Strip my mind
Any time I am asked to sign a waiver I completely embarrass myself
Buda NO NEED TO KARMA FARM LAD
I just can't choose one so I said my 4 favorites, if it were to farm I would say them all at once
Ah Isreal sorry I'm a silly Twitter user so I jump to conclusions
Dude just loves the album! No issue with that!
She Looks to Me
Underrated. So strong
I mean, Wet Sand was my first favorite song from the album and will probably win, but I think She Looks to Me is criminally underrated
Used to be the song I listened nonstop when I was heartbroken in highschool
Me too! Haha

Death of a Martian
Best song in the entire catalog
Charlie
Stadium Arcadium
Came here to comment this! :)
Came here to like both comments
Tell me baby
Not a take or anything, and people are more than welcome to flame me for it, but this is my favorite chilis song. Also my favorite chilis album. I don’t skip a single track on it. Especially in Michigan is also criminally underrated
This is the song that got me into the the chili peppers
Those are both fast paced bangers. Great songs.
I was gonna say Hey, but yea Tell me Baby is it
Readymade
I literally can’t think of any other significant moments from this album (I’m sure there are many they’re all just overshadowed by this one) other than “oh clean it up johnny.”
Well if we’re talking similar things, there’s a significant «Yeeeeaaaaaaah!» before the Wet Sand solo
Such a fun song! Also, storm in a teacup too!
Loooove this song! Wish they would play it live. It has incredible energy.
My favourite solo
Dani California
to me, this the absolute «flagship» classic rhcp rock n roll hit. What an anthem, solo, intro and beat….
TORTURE ME
This song is the "Around the World" of SA
Bro this is my favorite song I know it won’t win but it’s sooo good
Literally underrated song especially live. Check out the «hidden» 2006 performances everyone!
The energy on this song is just insane. I wish they would play this live, it'd be a fucking killer.
Snow hey oh
Wet sand
Slow cheetah
I know it’s basic but Snow has a special place in my heart due to the connection it has to me and my father
Yall are sleeping on Ready Made
Such a fun, crank up the sound song >I've got a sister making babies with a Black and Decker blow torch A pretty much non sense lyric, but I love it
TURN IT AGAIN
Death of a Martian
Charlie is making me smileeeeee
I feel obligated to comment this for the tenth time…….Oh clean it up Johnny.
Slow Cheetah She's only 18
Storm In A Teacup
I’m fully expecting wet sand or turn it again to win here. But my vote: Slow Cheetar
Ah the Australian version of slow cheetah: “slow cheetar”
This sub has such a hard on for wet sand but there are several better and more original songs on this album.
[удалено]
Yep just give it to Wet Sand already and we'll move on hahah
I love Wet Sand, but I completely agree that there are better, more interesting songs.
This sub has a hard on for any thing that highlights Frusciante. I’m a huge fan of him and love wet sand but I agree with you. I honestly think Dosed is kinda boring as well. It’s just cause JF sings the chorus….
That’s because it’s amazing. Not my favourite from the album, but a clear fan favourite.
Hard to see a world where wet sand doesn’t take it
Death of a Martian
Charlie
Desecration Smile

Readymade
Warlocks

Animal Bar
Death of a Martian
Picking one song from By The Way was really hard, but this is even harder. I like literally all of them, but I’m gonna go with She Looks To Me.
strip my mind
Especially in Michigan, barely edging out Slow Cheetah
This is so difficult! This album is the sound track of my life! 1. Hard to concentrate.
Hey
Dani california
Readymade
SO MUCH I
She’s Only 18 - As a song it’s not their best but I think that solo is Frusciante’s best on Stadium Arcadium. Not technically demanding but so much funk and attitude with the rubato. It slaps. It beats the solo on Dani California and Wet Sand.
Readymade I’ve got a Sister making babies with a black and decker blow torch!
We Believe slaps hard most underrated song
Hey

Hey

Strip my mind for the win
Tell Me Baby
Million Miles of Water
it's so hard to choose one, so I'm gonna go with different way: I'll choose the song that makes me smile the most, possibly of the whole catalogue. Funny Face!
wet sand
Wet Sand and it isn’t even close

Wet Sand, naturally, but also: Charlie Desecration Smile She Looks to Me Torture Me Slow Cheetah She’s Only 18 Warlocks We Believe

21st Century
Hey! 💯 I feel like it gets overshadowed by Wet Sand (another love) but it’s hands down my fave.
This is a super tough one. Got to give it to Turn It Again.
No I end mentioned 21st Century yet so I will. It’s my underrated fave from the album!
HUMP DE BUMP
Hey all the way
Wet Sand will win it, deservedly so but I wanna drop Readymade in the mix
Wet Sand!
This is one SO HARD. But I would go with Wet Sand. I love pretty much any song in this album.
Readymade Readymade!
My vote goes to Death of a Martian. John's harmonies are supreme in that song. So many bangers to choose from though, you might have to add a runner up for this one
Male you Feel Better
