@@theredhotchilipepperssexof4269 LOOK IF THESE GUYS EVER DID THAT SHIT AGAIN I WOULD TOTALLY DROP THEM , BUT YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND THEY'RE NOT THE SAME PEOPLE ANYMORE. Its annoying and it really isn't changing anything right now .
You can see and tell Flea is so so sincere when he talks about his passion for music and just wanting play and is sincere regarding john and Hillel. I fucking love RHCP.
Wish John was there. However, it’s really cool to see how much the group love and respect him. Peppers will always be my favorite. Josh, you are killing it. Nice work man.
I cannot watch this video without bawling my eyes out every time, watching James collect Hillel's award, everything Anthony says, Cliff and Jack, when Chad talks I start getting all emotional, but it's when Flea starts. When he starts that speech, you know it's coming straight from the heart, his speech is so heartfelt and real, when he chokes up, I lose it. When he says he loves his mum, when he says thank you to George Clinton - just no one can pull so many emotions in one speech, he's such an incredible man, they all are. All I wish for is a long and successful career, their health, and some funky tunes for years to come, I don't know where or if I'd be here without them, thank you for everything boys.
Flea's one of the greatest men in the history of music imo. Pure passion, nothing but love for music. When I saw them live this year after being such a die-hard fan for so long, I couldn't take my eyes off of him. Not ONCE did he stop rocking out. Always, always, ALWAYS playing his heart out. I love you Flea. I love you John (my idol), Anthony, Chad, Hillel, Josh, Jack. Thank you for everything, RHCP. Truly one of the best bands of their generation.
Life is something else. Flea played Football with Steven Adler at 13 and grew up 2 blocks from Slash and they all go into The Rock n Roll Hall of Fame on The Same night. Wow.
Flea tearing up made me tear up too. I'm not even the biggest fan of rhcp, but some of my favourite songs ever are written and played by them, so thank you RHCP for making music since I started listening to music.
All the Chili's are key but John F. is the one that really put them over the top. Those are their best records. Too bad he didn't show. It's his riffs that stand out the most.
I love RHCP. To be able to talk about your addictions and overcome them takes courage. I like that they didn’t ignore it and pretend it never was a problem or didn’t happen. They acknowledge they lost a member and friend to drug addiction. Mad respect for them. Flea is so passionate about music. Top 5 best bassist of all time IMO. I hope they come to my city on a tour so I can get an opportunity to see them perform.
That's so awesome that Hilel's brother was there! For those that don't know, Hilel was the "John Frusciante" of the band before John joined. He was a total beast and John got almost all of his inspiration from Hilel.
For those of you who don't know John Frusciante, he is literally one of the best songwriters guitar players and guitar Melody writers of all time. Listen to the intro to Under the Bridge listen to the entire f****** album of blood sugar sex Magik. Listen to the entire album of Californication from the beginning to end and tell me that this guy is in From Another World. Nobody sounds like him. And he doesn't sound like anybody else
I’ll Never be able to put into words what flea, John, chad and Anthony mean to me. They’ve no clue who I am and yet the impact they’ve had on my life is profound. I love them so very much. Well done and well deserved my lovely men, my funky monks.
Flea is truly one of the most amazing people i have ever got the honor to see. i dont know what to say, His love and passion towards music is..beyond my understanding surface and i'm just so much grateful for his existence and for getting a chance to listen to his music. Thank you RHCP for completely changing my life and perspective, and for giving me and teaching me so much about everything. I LOVE YOU.
Flea is a beautiful person. So passionate and true to his feelings. It is exactly that what you hear and see when he plays bass. Total surrender to the music. No filter. What he feels is what you hear. I have so much love for you man. You made me play bass and it is absolutely the most amazing thing ever. Words could not describe what playing music does to a person. The bass in my living room is the most warm welcome I could ask for when I get home. Thank you so much.
TEARS!! These guys have been through so much. It’s insane to think of how far they’ve come in the journey of life and how much love they’ve cultivated in spite of (or because of) all that. We love you RHCP. Thank you for never giving up.
Flea is such a compassionate, selfless, spiritual, raw, and wild but gentle soul. His love radiates off of him and flows straight into people’s souls. I can feel it so deeply just by watching this through my phone. He put a knot in my throat and filled my heart hearing him speak. Best band in the world ❤️
Cliff Martinez=very underrated drummer. He played on the first two Chili Peppers albums. His playing on Freaky Styley is right on!! Thanks Cliff! Also Thanks to Jack Irons, who would've been on the first two albums but there were conflicting schedules.
What a beautiful a passionate speech flea made. Goes to show they are not only great artist but great people. I wish I could personally thank them for all they have given to us as fans.
If Flea wasnt legendary musician.. he would be a great speaker... his speech are absolutely incredible...man almost outshone Metallica's Hall of Fame ceremony..he is at it again
The mark of a candidate worthy of inclusion is the amount of their gratitude and humility. Flea, you are the epitomy of what it means to be an artist. Love ya man!
You definitely uplifted me today in the concert you put on in Texas. You guys are so amazing and I love you so much!!!! You deserve this completely. ROCK ON!
I've watched this 2 or 3 times now. I get tears everytime. I don't know them personally but I as well as others really feel their emotion and the huge impact their music has had on us
guys, i had the chance to watch this show 2 times on tv, and when i flea talk i cried with him man, he have such a amazing energy, as a person and with no doubt x100 more in RHCP music man so amazing.
Hillel was such a beautiful guitar player, beautiful artist and beautiful soul. its sad that most Chili Peppers fans don't know who he is, or his songs, but if a few more youngsters check out their early stuff..... awesome. RIP HILLEL
Hillel is by far the best but John is a close second, both are amazing in their own ways and they both have made RHCP what they are today, glad John is back and RIP Hillel…
Flea. That was an all time great speech. He deeply understands how amazing this honor is and his love of music has made me appreciate everything RHCP does. Check out every single thing they do and tell me they're not one of America's best artists!
To this day it bums me out that Frusciante declined to attend this event. Perhaps one of the biggest days in the lives of each and every Chili Pepper. Even Irons and Martinez showed up. So glad Johnny is back in the band though. So many happy fans right now!
As to why John Frusciante didn't attend you have to remember. He isn't the healthiest individual mental health wise. He literally sunk into addiction because of the pressures that being widely famous brought him back in the 90's, which is completely understandable considering how much of an introvert he is and how he probably just doesn't like recognition. He seems to suffer from social anxiety too, which is a phobia of people and it doesn't help that everyone puts him on a pedestal, despite him clearly hating that. Just some perspective for those calling him selfish. He just took some precaution for himself so that he wouldn't fall into the same rabbit hole. He literally lost 6 years of his life from addiction. He's back, but just chill out everyone lmao
there is no band who deserves this more than red hot chili peppers. they are just pure amazingness and you can always feel the love that they have for music, their fans, previous members and eachother. i have been a fan of this amazing band for almost 10 years and their music affects me in so many different ways! you always feel that anthony is telling you something when he is singing. i will forever be a fan of this amazing band
The reason John did not attend is the very same reason he left the band - he doesn't like publicity, he doesn't like being famous, he left the first time because he was uncomfortable with the fame they were gaining, but the love between them brought him back, the second time was for much the same reason. In an interview he said that he hated going on stage and got into a state of almost panic attack, he left because he doesn't like publicity, hence why he doesn't perform now, as for this evening, well considering the fact that it is based solely on the band members, then I can see why he chose not to attend
Yea he also just doesn't like the rock n roll hall of fame an has said many times he could care less about getting in...he stated it's a popularity contest a fashion show an it's all political ....he just honestly loves playing the guitar an making amazing songs...his rhythm an funky psychedelic solos an grooves is going to live forever like the predecessors he looked up to Hendrix Clapton...he finally did what he's always wanted to do he made it his songs an his style is legendary an in my eyes will not be forgotten..long live the peppers and the great John frusciante
Nah. John is what an edgy hipster was in the 90s. I love John and his works are magic but he knew in the first place what he was getting into but can't get that elitist attitude of his off his priority. You'd know as soon as he talks of his new electronic bs music.
Creo que lo mejor que pudo pasarle en la vida a Anthony Kiedis es haberse encontrado con Flea. Y a Flea es haberse encontrado con Hillel y todos haberse encontrado con John Frusciante. ❤ Grandes todos!!! Pero la pasión de Flea por la música es sobresaliente!!
wow! THIS IS SO FUCKING COOL! IT'S IMPOSIBLE TO NOT CRY WHEN YOU HEAR FLEA TALKING TO HILLEL , AND THEN GIVING A HUGE HUG TO ANTHONY. JESUS! I REALLY LOVE THIS BAND! CHAD , ANTHONY , FLEA , JOSH , JOHN (MY IDOL) , JACK , CLIFF
flea makes me wanna cry i cant take it when he says "mum i love you"
flea did what i would do. id be balling my eyes out. thats true passion.
That was a moving moment
So accurate ❤
i cried 🥺
Totally, I cried. So deeply moment
I am Forever Grateful to you too, Mr. John Frusciante.
Diana Frazer rhcp great with frusciante🎻
Very sarcastic
Diana Frazer i now, he’s back 💕
@@theredhotchilipepperssexof4269 LOOK IF THESE GUYS EVER DID THAT SHIT AGAIN I WOULD TOTALLY DROP THEM , BUT YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND THEY'RE NOT THE SAME PEOPLE ANYMORE. Its annoying and it really isn't changing anything right now .
WHY WASN'T HE THERE ?????
Every time I hear Flea speak it comes directly from his heart
CraigSteps hes purely transparent. So many people cant get to that honesty
That is tue.
I want to have a friend like Flea
You can see and tell Flea is so so sincere when he talks about his passion for music and just wanting play and is sincere regarding john and Hillel. I fucking love RHCP.
I love that Chad still wears the backwards cap along with the suit jacket and dress shirt
That unintentionally synchronized head turn by Flea and Anthony @10:23 is flawless
lol!
Im not a big fan of RHCP they have some songs that I really like, but damn Flea...that man is a gem. So genuine and humble it is amazing
This is the best speech in rock and roll history...
Along with the speech from Flea at Metallica Hall of Fame induction.
Really? Without thanking the fans once? The entire reason he's there/is a multi-millionaire for doing something he loves?
Daniel Burns they thanked the fans multiple times. Also stfu.
@@djburns318 His way of thanking fans is by making new music and playing amazing concerts.
Wish John was there. However, it’s really cool to see how much the group love and respect him.
Peppers will always be my favorite.
Josh, you are killing it. Nice work man.
Me too
josh getting the respect he deserves
HES BACK
dave navarro should have been there too
It amazes me how humble Josh is and people still rag on the dude.
flea's speech is so natural and filled with emotion... its a beautiful thing
I cannot watch this video without bawling my eyes out every time, watching James collect Hillel's award, everything Anthony says, Cliff and Jack, when Chad talks I start getting all emotional, but it's when Flea starts.

@@dlondon35 I have a new respect for Flea. When he talks and gets emotional about things, I know he's sincere and genuine.
Here we are 10 years later, John is back and 2022 double album rocks!
jesus christ i was getting teary on fleas speech
Flea's one of the greatest men in the history of music imo.

Wholesome
Just two dudes chillin' in L.A.
Flea man. You´re beautiful. It was an honor to hear that speech!
Flea is an outstanding person he just blows me away with his part of the speech! God bless you Flea thanks man.
"John Frusciante the most amazing artist on earth" Pretty accurate.
Truth
He's good
FAX
Where was this said?
9:47
Flea tearing up made me tear up too. I'm not even the biggest fan of rhcp, but some of my favourite songs ever are written and played by them, so thank you RHCP for making music since I started listening to music.

flea is a great man and his devotion to music is something extremely beautiful
LOVE THESE GUYS
All the Chili's are key but John F. is the one that really put them over the top. Those are their best records. Too bad he didn't show. It's his riffs that stand out the most.
John Forever . Best Artist in the damn world. he gave me so much inspiration. Damn his music is just amazing
Dave Navarro, you're man! dark times, hard times but you just rock this! thank you for the great songs!
I love RHCP. To be able to talk about your addictions and overcome them takes courage. I like that they didn’t ignore it and pretend it never was a problem or didn’t happen. They acknowledge they lost a member and friend to drug addiction. Mad respect for them. Flea is so passionate about music. Top 5 best bassist of all time IMO. I hope they come to my city on a tour so I can get an opportunity to see them perform.
I love Flea's emotion. That guy really lets it out.
Flea's speech was great!
That's so awesome that Hilel's brother was there! For those that don't know, Hilel was the "John Frusciante" of the band before John joined. He was a total beast and John got almost all of his inspiration from Hilel.

Flea's speech was so heartfilled. Got me welling up in the eyes.
I’ll
Never be able to put into words what flea, John, chad and Anthony mean to me. They’ve no clue who I am and yet the impact they’ve had on my life is profound. I love them so very much. Well done and well deserved my lovely men, my funky monks.
They dug me out of a dark heroin addiction back in 2002.
Jack seems like the sweetest guy as well as an amazing musician. So hard to watch them all wish Hillel was there.
Jack and his son still hang out with them backstage when they rock the west coast
Flea is truly one of the most amazing people i have ever got the honor to see.
i dont know what to say, His love and passion towards music is..beyond my understanding surface and i'm just so much grateful for his existence and for getting a chance to listen to his music.

I think I would have fainted if John made a surprise appearance and they busted out the Yertle Trilogy.
lol
FLEA is just a fucking great man, you can feel his pasion for music and life in his words, one of the greatest bass players ever, LONG LIVE FLEA!!!
Hereing flees speech brings me to tears to my eyes I align so much with his words in music he is a humble kind and incredible musician
Fleas emotion is so raw and pure. His speech gets me in the feels every time I watch this
Flea is THE perfect example of a musician. Just one hell of a nice guy :)
4:07 mark. I start tearing up every time. His heart is as big & bold as his talent. God bless you Flea.
John opted for a quiet life, very much like John Deacon from Queen
And John Densmore of The Doors
Droosy1 1 he’s back!!
With the exception he's back
TEARS!! These guys have been through so much. It’s insane to think of how far they’ve come in the journey of life and how much love they’ve cultivated in spite of (or because of) all that. We love you RHCP. Thank you for never giving up.
Hillel is alive in the RHCP, his guitar haunts every RHCP album.
RIP Hillel Slovak!..a great man..
Flea is such a compassionate, selfless, spiritual, raw, and wild but gentle soul. His love radiates off of him and flows straight into people’s souls.

God, Flea's speech brought tears to my eyes, that was beautiful :')
I've always thought that Flea was the real (gentle, humble) RHCP's brain. Probably he's also a big slice of the soul of the group.
When Chad smith talk about his mom. I suddenly remember Will Ferrel calling his mom for meat loaf in Wedding Crashers movie
You definitely uplifted me today in the concert you put on in Texas. You guys are so amazing and I love you so much!!!! You deserve this completely. ROCK ON!
What an emotional speech by Flea!
I've watched this 2 or 3 times now. I get tears everytime. I don't know them personally but I as well as others really feel their emotion and the huge impact their music has had on us

this is such a great speech by them all!!!!!
i love Fleas speech
i love how you can tell that flea really is passionate about being a musician. his speech touched my heart.
I teared up when flea got chocked up thanking George Clinton for his influence on him. Flea and John are the hammer and nails of the group.
i love how flea repeats that phrase 8:24.and the whole flea speech.inspiring.
The picture at the end is so awesome!
When Flea speaks, I'm so incredibly touched...how special is it to see someone who unabashedly loves music so much that it make YOU love music more???
I clapped after Flea's speech

Flea is such a special human. I love his mind
Flea is one of the best bass players in the world, great musician, but first of all he is one hell of a man!!!

Flea is just so passionate I love all of their speeches but his speech hit me the most. Love them all
