@@formxr I love every single thing about that song. The intro, the forlorn guitar sounds, the lyrics, the chorus. It is just such a sad and beautiful song. “With the birds I share this lonely view” is just a beautiful line. Love it. And you’re right, it comes in strong (yet somehow soft at the same time).
"In the book Scar Tissue, Anthony Kiedis explains that this song is about his drug addiction. The "slide" is how far he will get back into his drug addiction, since he would stop doing drugs for a time, then get right back into it. 'I don't believe it's bad' is a reference to how he doesn't regret doing drugs." The "Otherside" is thought to mean The Afterlife as well. "Otherside refers to former band member Hillel Slovak, who died of a heroin overdose in 1988. Marley Lenderman wrote this song." 🖤
@@Yol1972 its a great book if you're a rhcp fan. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. Ak certainly lived aj incredibly interesting life, no question. That doesn't make the book a masterpiece. But hey as long as you enjoy it i guess, why should i shit on your fun lol. Good for you.
@@lisafanninghowe yes, that makes sense, pouring your life [ out ] in a paper cup...at those AA meetings you pour our your heart soul and LIFE...HOLDING ON TO A PAPER CUP...[ Folks go for all sorts of addictions, besides drugs and alcohol]
Damn it's so interesting. I grew up with them in my teens and never really truly listened to the lyrics and thought of their meaning. Love their old stuff. Hope to see them at pink pop festival this year with John back on guitar. Original pepper formation😊
6:53 - "That was a tough one right there. That was a tough one to endure and try to explain." Yes. There's some facts to the song and the people responsible for making it, but the facts aren't the feeling or the journey. I really respect how you handled your reaction on this one. It's a tough song with a lot of deeply personal meaning for the band, as well as some more in your face stuff. Hanging back like you did gave room for everyone to let the song mean what it did to them.
RHCP are my all time favorite band ! Their music is such deeply felt poetry. It always makes me think and talks about everything they have been through . I have seen them in concert too many times to count . Basically since the early ‘80’s. I brought my oldest daughter for her birthday as her first concert when she was 12. She fell in love with them as well. We have seen them together every year since ‘99.
Check out some of the earlier hits off Blood Sugar Sex Magik (Suck My Kiss, Under the Bridge, Give It Away, etc). John Frusciante was like 21 and out of his mind on heroin writing the best guitar parts you've ever heard in your life.
Atone SB, you should see John’s live performance on the Dave Letterman show in ‘89, playing Stevie Wonder’s “Higher Ground!” That’s when I knew he entered legendary status! Mind-blowing performance!
That chorus would get stuck in your head. SCAR TISSUE is your next big bet.... And then something from them that would even surprise their fans “ coffee Shop”
This song is really smooth to the ears... I had never heard it before! Thank YoU Mr Video, for introducing me to a "new to me" RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS Song!
Yes, yes, yes!!! But from the live performance on Dave Letterman back in ‘89! ABSOLUTELY incredible performance! Especially by young John! That footage alone shows me why he’s such an epic legend!!!
@craig 22 I think they listen to a lot of the same stuff, because those videos aren't strict on their copyrights. They can lose their whole channel if they get hit by videos who report them for infringement. Rules always seem to get in the way of fun, don't they? LOL
That's a powerful and catchy chorus after 21 years I still love it, it's a dark song about his addiction but it's so good, he beat it and came out of the otherside.
Try their "Give it away" song. It won't disappoint...fun fact about this group, when they started out, there was a performance where all each of them was wearing was a sock,..I will let you figure out where the sock was placed.,...they have always been a trip.

These guys are incredible live. You should check out their outdoor concert @ Slane Castle, Ireland. 80,000-90,000 people going mental. I have been to Slane twice, it's a magical experience, what a venue. ✌️
prolly not the song to introduce RHCP. I would go with give it away or soul to squeeze or suck my kiss. So many great songs by them. One of my fav groups
All I want for Christmas this year is for him to react to Closer!!! It's just gonna be the best reaction ever! Sitting here giggling just thinking about it 😂
As to imagery, it looks like the guy on the lines is playing a guitar or bass, in this case I think it is Flea, so a bass. It looks like the guitarist is playing some kind of line or rope (a different or opposite representation of a bass and guitar than many other bands would do [bass has many lines, but guitar has one]) and the drummer is playing a clock. The main character (not the singer) is dealing with a lot of things happening to him, whether those things are self-inflicted, outside induced or imagined, the person usually sees it as happening to them, not because of them. He gets thrown down, gets back up, pushed back down, rises above again and then everything seems to be conspiring to take him down again. I may be wrong, but the character seems to be playing out an external version of an internal process. Anthony is singing in a stark world and his voice is front and center in the mix, almost laying on top of the instrumentals rather than blending into it. This places emphasis on the lyrics and the delivery of them. It is very melancholy, direct and a bit lifeless (intentionally I think, not a criticism at least). I think it is another way to show/explain the feelings they grapple with while internally fighting against the addiction (themselves). Sometimes winning and sometimes losing, but in the end trying to get to the right side, wherever that may be at that moment.
The electrical wires are a multi-layered metaphor: Yes, They are dangerous... Flea is plucking bass strings and also representing a demon plucking Anthony's heart-strings toward temptation. If he gives into temptation, there is an inevitable conclusion. Otherside
I think it's time you introduced yourself to Faith No More. It has 2 eras: Chuck Mosely(RIP), and Mike Patton. You'd dig the Sunny Side Up music video.
Hit up some of their upbeat rock n roll songs like..... The Greating Song, Naked in the Rain, Johnny Kick a Hole in the Sky, or their cover of Higher Ground. They can truly rock out.
These guys kept it pretty real with their lyrics. Addiction is a struggle.....facts. Love these melodies as they are not typical, lots of asymmetry. 🎼🎶🎸🎧😎love this one and Under the bridge.....definitely. 🔥
Old chili peppers has all the funk!! "True men don't kill coyotes" , "what it is", "baby appeal" , "grand pappy du plenty", "walkin on down the road", "behind the sun", "funky crime" and "fight like a brave" !! Then check out some Jane's addiction!!
This song is about the Hillel Slovak, the first RHCP guitarrist that went to "Otherside" when he's 26. There are other songs that Anthony Kiedis wrote about him, like Taste The Pain, Knock Me Down, Feasting On The Flowers.
Probably my favorite by them. I was living in California at the time, Bakersfield. Thier music and reggae was the soundtrack of my early 90's....loved it out there.
I have always thought that “otherside” was underrated. Not much love to this song compared to other songs in the same album or other songs outside this album. Great simple sounding song. Glad you reacted to this song.
Check out not only their known hits but they have some fun funky songs from the early 80s, before they made it big, off of “Freaky Styley” and “Uplift Mofo Party Plan” albums..
RHCP can do no wrong, I love all of their songs. Parallel Universe, Mexico, Gong Li, Monarchy of Roses, Rain Dance Maggie, Dark Necessities, Airplane....the list goes on forever. All of them good.
I've always liked this didn't know what it was bout the first time i heard it cause i couldn't reallly just sit and listen but when i did i was like ok wow great song and reaction🔥🎶

I love watching your reaction videos, your honesty is wonderful and refreshing :) I actually enjoy seeing your reactions to "older" music, so much of that music is the background music to my life lol. I would be interested to see you react to some newer groups/songs that I've been introduced to; such as Fire From The Gods - Right Now or Falling in Reverse - Popular Monster. Keep keeping it real :D
Yeah!! Another Rhcp song❤️❤️..video is based off a foreign film that Flea (bassist) saw I believe in Germany and he wanted to re-create it for a music video
Otherside was written for and in some cases by the members of the band suffering through heroin addictions. Founding RHCP member, Hillel Slovak (guitarist) died of a heroin overdose in 1988. Anthony Kiedis (singer) and John Frusciante (guitarist) both dealt with this crippling addiction. From what I understand (I admittedly do not have first hand knowledge), heroin addiction is merciless and defies reason, making it hard to get away from it and stay away from it. The struggle may get easier over time, but once introduced to heroin, they have to stay hyper-vigilante because the pull never goes completely away. Things that seem harmless or unrelated to it can pull once stable people into a tailspin. This song was released about a decade after Hillel Slovak's death (1999). The decade prior to this songs release, Anthony and John grappled with their addictions in their own way and on their own timetable, but both seemed to make it to the...you guessed it, other side. However, other side can mean different things depending on where you are in life, and your perspective of that place, at the moment you are asked to define what the other side is.
I never realized you could understand the chorus to mean that. And then I see Mr. Video reacting to it and I am like tf thats def the most simple way to interpret the lyrics. I always considered it to mean ' to have to deal with something in the spiritual dimension' like the other side behind the curtain, and now I am like what happened Anthony?

‘Scar Tissue’ is my favorite RHCP song. Sorry, I love their old school stuff. But Scar Tissue is SUCH a beautiful song.
Scar tissue intro is so beautiful. Always gets me.
thats true thats a good one for sure
@ I’m aware of that. I’m saying many hardcore RHCP fans think their older stuff is better.
@ also, sorry, that sounded like I was being a jerk lol. That’s not how I meant it at all. So weird how different typing is versus talking.

Agree 👍🏻
I remember they would play this on the radio probably 40,000 times a day for over 10 years! But still a great song!😁
Anthony Keidis - I just love his voice - one of my favourite bands.
The best thing about this channel is that it shows when older people say the music used to be better, it really was.
6:53 - "That was a tough one right there. That was a tough one to endure and try to explain." Yes. There's some facts to the song and the people responsible for making it, but the facts aren't the feeling or the journey.

Red got chili peppers - around the world is another great song
It's a deep one..if you choose to live dangerously you are basically living close to the other side.
I can't see it right now! But later for sure!!! RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS, MY FAVORITE BAND EVER

Reckon it’s about Anthony’s addiction and questioning if death is the only way out. One of my all time faves.

Fruciante back vocals is exacly what you want back vocals to sounds like.

Slit my throat it's all I ever
Turn me on, take me for a hard ride
Burn me out, leave me on the other side
I yell and tell it that it's not my friend
I tear it down, I tear it down
And then it's born again
How long, how long will I slide?
Separate my side, I don't
I don't believe it's bad
Slit my throat it's all I ever
How long, I don't, I don't believe it's bad
Slit my throat it's all I ever
This song meant everything to me and I still listen to it
In your face, take it or leave it. 100% Anthony Kiedis, lead singer. You are spot on Mr Video.
This has always been my favorite RHCP song. Flea is awesome
Omg!!!! My favorite band ever.
It was so alter when you light that cig, for such a dark RHCP song, loved that 😁🤘✌️
Absolutely ❤ how you let these songs hit you Leo...
💯 Old School 🔥🔥🔥
I love watching your reaction videos, your honesty is wonderful and refreshing :) I actually enjoy seeing your reactions to "older" music, so much of that music is the background music to my life lol. I would be interested to see you react to some newer groups/songs that I've been introduced to; such as Fire From The Gods - Right Now or Falling in Reverse - Popular Monster. Keep keeping it real :D
Yeah!! Another Rhcp song❤️❤️..video is based off a foreign film that Flea (bassist) saw I believe in Germany and he wanted to re-create it for a music video
YAAASSS!!! Thank you!!! 💖🌠💖
Otherside was written for and in some cases by the members of the band suffering through heroin addictions. Founding RHCP member, Hillel Slovak (guitarist) died of a heroin overdose in 1988. Anthony Kiedis (singer) and John Frusciante (guitarist) both dealt with this crippling addiction. From what I understand (I admittedly do not have first hand knowledge), heroin addiction is merciless and defies reason, making it hard to get away from it and stay away from it. The struggle may get easier over time, but once introduced to heroin, they have to stay hyper-vigilante because the pull never goes completely away. Things that seem harmless or unrelated to it can pull once stable people into a tailspin.
This song was released about a decade after Hillel Slovak's death (1999). The decade prior to this songs release, Anthony and John grappled with their addictions in their own way and on their own timetable, but both seemed to make it to the...you guessed it, other side.
However, other side can mean different things depending on where you are in life, and your perspective of that place, at the moment you are asked to define what the other side is.
I never realized you could understand the chorus to mean that. And then I see Mr. Video reacting to it and I am like tf thats def the most simple way to interpret the lyrics. I always considered it to mean ' to have to deal with something in the spiritual dimension' like the other side behind the curtain, and now I am like what happened Anthony?
Mr. Video, Bobby Caldwell "What you wont do for love" = NO RESULTS! Lets do it! lol
