being around drugs my whole life i relate to this song. i’ve seen my family members die, become something they weren’t and just lose them all together. so thankful i never went down that road but i feel for everyone that has been affected from drugs in their own life! god bless
This is the ONLY good Red Hot Chili Peppers remix of any of their songs, I have always loved both songs because I have quite a wide range in music but the two together sound so good.
4 years clean this year october, rolled my car end of November this year, prescribed oxy for pain. The balance and awareness i need is not explainable. The anxiety of that devil in that bottle scares me.
The message is raw I'm a recovering Herion addict and can relate to this. To all my people i lost and loose daily to this disease i pray for their souls. 🙏
Mixing two great artists together, this is a honestly a good song, but everyone is hating because they either dislike rhcp or macklemore. Calm down and appreciate the song. -.-
Shit Maybe not perfectly but that makes it interesting, it really works IMO, slows it all down and makes it feel so acoustic but still urban as fuck, I don't really know what I'm saying haha
haha, fine with me :) i just prefer the version that has the "oh girl this boat is sinking, there's no sea left for me" portion. it makes it deeper and, in my opinion, fits better h the overall mood.
RIght after the first verse, where he says "Na, it won't be us!" It should've started RHCP singing "How long how long 'til I slide.." and do the full Otherside chorus before kicking back into Macklemore. Not only would the lyrics reflect eachother, but the tone works. You left a wide enough space that it could still be edited in..
when i read there was a version with the red hot chili peppers riff through it, i couldnt wait to hear it, and it hasnt disappointed at all, its amazing
This version is the og, they had to change it for legal reasons I think, I've been die heard since language of my world and I never heard the other version till way later
Ironically, my friend used to play this all the time while we were taking MDMA and ecstacy. Glad to say I haven't touched either of them drugs in 7 years.
So much hate. It is a REMIX. Someone (not Macklemore and Ryan Lewis) took the Otherside riff by RHCP and laid macklemore's song over it. fyi I'm a huge RHCP fan and their Otherside is one of my favorite songs, but this remix worked perfectly and you're ignorant to think otherwise. The two songs' lyrics compliment each other extremely well; and to the macklemore fans, I also love the original of his Otherside. Everyone just stop hating and enjoy good music for what it is for once!
Potato San He meant that this is the original version of Macklemore's song, which sampled RHCP, and had to be changed due to copyright. He didn't mean to say that RHCP took the song from Macklemore.
god, they sang this at rock im park last week, it was the best thing i ever experienced ! they played the first chords of otherside of rhcp and EVERYONE started to sing the refrain ! it was so perfect, it was a feeling of everyone being united. my god, i would die for see this again 😭😍😭😍😭😍😭😭
Holy shit I'm shivering.. just doing my work not noticing the lyrics until I just got goosebumps. I've listened to this twice again just listening to the lyrics
I used to be like you: ignorant and close minded... Then I embraced the idea that the finest artists in their trades are amazing in their own rights and the notion of their brilliance surpasses the boundaries of mere music genres.
Just heard this 1st time. Now repeated on my 4th cant stop. Was addicted to meth around 5 yrs nearly lost my wife n kids etc. Im like 4to5 yrs soberrrr THIS SONG HITS HARD
I came across this from a friend. When I was crashing on his sofa when my wife chucked me out. Absolutely amazing song. It didn’t get me clean I did that but it made me realise I needed to.
This is so real....it's where we are right now as a generation!!! And it's where we were as a generation before we really knew how bad it was gonna get!!!! But is has, and it's up to us all to choose to "live " this life we live every day without being under some influence but our beautiful self!!!! ❤️ Life is tough but WE GOT THIS ❤️

Das Leben am Groundhog Day wiederholt sich für mich jeden Tag. Ich habe gesehen, wie Oxycontin 3 Leben genommen hat, Ich bin damit aufgewachsen, jeden Tag high sein. Ich habe gesehen wie Kokain die Dämonen in dir weckt. Du betrügst und lügst. Freundschaft endet, kein Frieden mehr im Herzen. Du stiehlst und nimmst alles was du kriegen kannst um dich selbst zusammenzuflicken. Gebrochen, hoffnungslos, gegenüber das große Nichts. Deine einzige Motivation ist die, die dir die Dealer anbieten. Dieser Rausch, diese Droge, dieser Kick. Diese Pillen, die Crumbs, diese Joints. Ich dachte sowas würde ich nie tun, Niemals solche Drogen. Wenn man klein ist denkt das ja keiner. Bis du irgendwann feststeckst, schaust in den Spiegel, und kannst nicht glauben, was aus dir geworden ist. hatte mir immer geschworen, dass ich erfolgreich bin. Wenn man klein ist denkt das ja jeder. We verkaufen unsere Träume und unser Potential um durch den Rausch zu fliehen. Lass mich oben, lass mich oben.
Wish I could get clean… but don’t think I ever will I’ve been sober and it just made me realise how depressing life is so went back to getting High, Because when I’m high it’s the only time I’m happy and feel like I can cope with life Takes away all my pain it gives me a mask and when I’m wearing that mask I don’t feel empty alone and dead inside. Respect to those people who found happiness in life once they got sober I salute everyone of you’s.!!!
This is a mash up by a fan of both artists. its a cross over of both songs, rhcp song and macklemores rapping. lets remember that anthony kedis went through a very similiar drug addiction so its close to his heart too
I am the oner that posted last comment..i lost my father in 2013 to an accidental overdose..n then saw others close tome go thru this also..along with myself being a recovering substance abuser..i fight each day to hold down thise demons and listening to ur music helps me to remember howbad things once were for me as well..now im struggling with keeping someone close to me alive..also
If you are like me and keep coming back here and it’s been a stretch of time since you went back to that self abuse, comment, time stamp that shit. Your here AGAIN strong, reminding yourself of once was what it was. Go human go!!!
I don't even like rap and I've listened to this like thirty times today .. this is the kind of thing the media doesn't want you to hear, because it doesn't sell. It's real, and it's genius. I love RHCP in any form, and it's rare that a song has me feel so many things at once. If you've ever wondered what it feels like to be an addict, this is it.

Macklemore. You helped me stop pills and other hard things. I’ll never forget the motivation and tears you gave me.

I need this version on my Spotify playlist so much!!
Why you tube premium is better than Spotify
4 years clean this year october, rolled my car end of November this year, prescribed oxy for pain. The balance and awareness i need is not explainable. The anxiety of that devil in that bottle scares me.
That’s a very powerful message
I hope you’re still going strong!! It’s amazing what proscribed meds can lead us to.
Maria! Thank you for turning me on to this track.
We all start somewhere, proud of you.
He saved my life. I am sober because of him. Thank you for spreading the real message of Hip Hop. Love life!!
I don't wanna be here again but my life won't let me get better.
Had 4 years didn't we. We were so close to that 5 year mark. So close but you had to do it again.
Don’t be hard on yourself self!!!! We can do it again!!!

Me too and it’s not on Apple Music or Spotify, this version is so much better than the original 😭
this is the original
Mixing two great artists together, this is a honestly a good song, but everyone is hating because they either dislike rhcp or macklemore. Calm down and appreciate the song. -.-
Agreed!!!! Beautifully said!
This song honestly means a lot to me I don't really know why it just for some reason reminds me of something I can't remember.
I feel exactly the same!
Have you remembered yet?
@@expose327 XD
Addiction takes many forms. You and I were the same age... RIP Mac Miller
this song feels like a hug
why is everyone hating so hard this is good
Because it's the riff that you actually like. If you listened to this a capella, you wouldn't like it most likely.
But it is still such a good remix
doesn't fit with the mood of the song
Shit Maybe not perfectly but that makes it interesting, it really works IMO, slows it all down and makes it feel so acoustic but still urban as fuck, I don't really know what I'm saying haha
haha, fine with me :) i just prefer the version that has the "oh girl this boat is sinking, there's no sea left for me" portion. it makes it deeper and, in my opinion, fits better h the overall mood.
RIght after the first verse, where he says "Na, it won't be us!" It should've started RHCP singing "How long how long 'til I slide.." and do the full Otherside chorus before kicking back into Macklemore. Not only would the lyrics reflect eachother, but the tone works. You left a wide enough space that it could still be edited in..
agreed
As you sayed, " Not only would the lyrics reflect eachother", so may be they thought some violin would improve the feelings ...
I want to hear this idea. Someone needs to make this.
spencer eckler it's in the original and nor the remix
spencer eckler would ruin the dramatics of the rhcp piece at the end it's been aced no need for change
This song gives me chills and butterflies...
Hattie Taylor chills through my whole body holy shit
Just started my journey, I loved mac when I was 12 I’m 24 now and now that I have an addiction this song has another meaning ❤️
when i read there was a version with the red hot chili peppers riff through it, i couldnt wait to hear it, and it hasnt disappointed at all, its amazing
The Red Hot Chili Peppers Beat + MAcklemore Rap = INSANEEE ..... LOVE IT !
Two of my favorite all-time songs combined perfectly.
Amazing amazing mashup. Well done!!!
This version is the og, they had to change it for legal reasons I think, I've been die heard since language of my world and I never heard the other version till way later
I wish this was on ITunes
Ironically, my friend used to play this all the time while we were taking MDMA and ecstacy. Glad to say I haven't touched either of them drugs in 7 years.
Wow! TH-cam recommend this track whilst listening to some 2 Pac remixes. Great remix

actually i thought this was the original and the remixed version was with fences?? correct me if im wrong
AFEND correct. this is the original.
Andrew James Uh no. This remix was made in 2009. The real song, Otherside, by the Chili Peppers was made in 2000.
Potato San He meant that this is the original version of Macklemore's song, which sampled RHCP, and had to be changed due to copyright. He didn't mean to say that RHCP took the song from Macklemore.
I know right! I love RHCP
20 minutes deep. You never think it’s gonna be you but it’s only ever going to be you
Rather than hating. Just enjoy the song guys. Support n show love.
god, they sang this at rock im park last week, it was the best thing i ever experienced ! they played the first chords of otherside of rhcp and EVERYONE started to sing the refrain ! it was so perfect, it was a feeling of everyone being united. my god, i would die for see this again 😭😍😭😍😭😍😭😭
incredibly powerful, amazing song
This is a really great use of a sampling an iconic song. Has a great message as well.
brilliant... this worked amazingly well, kudos to the OP
It's a long time since I've heard this and it's still as amazing as ever!! Absolutely beautiful ❤️💚
Keep up with the SHARKY ATTITUDE keeping it 100%
Thank you for this song! It gives me strength like you wouldn't believe!

Lyrics:
He rolled up, asked him what he was sippin' on
He said lean, You want to hit it, dawg?
That's the same stuff Weezy's sippin' huh?
And tons of other rappers that be spittin' hard,
Yup yup five a bone
When he passed him that Styrofoam the Easter pink, heard it in a rhyme before
Finally got to see what all the hype was on
And then he took a sip, sittin' in the Lincoln thinkin' he was pimpin' as he listen
To the system
Little did he know that it was just as addictive as bass
Not the kind of hit from the kick drum
Hot box, let the bass bump
Take it to the face, gulp
Months later the use went up
Every blunt was accompanied by the pink stuff
But Goddamn he loved that feelin'
Purple rain coated in the throat
Just so healin'
Medicine alleviate the sickness
Liquid affix and it comes with a cost
Wake up, cold sweat, scratchin', itchin'
Trying to escape the skin that barely fit him
Gone, get another bottle just to get a couple swallows
Headed towards the bottom couldn't get off it
Didn't even think he had a problem
Though he couldn't sleep without gettin' nauseous
Room spinnin',
Thinkin' he might've sipped just a little bit too much of that cough syrup
His eyelids closed shut
Sat back in the chair clutchin' that cup
Girlfriend came and a couple hours later said his name shim but he never got up
He never got up, he never got up
We live on the cusp of death thinkin' that it won't be us
It won't be us, it won't be us, it won't be us
Nah, it won't be us
Oh girl, this boat is sinking
There's no sea left for me
And how the sky gets heavy
When you are underneath it!
Oh. I want to sail away from here.
And god. He came down down down down down down down down
And said (down down down down down down down down)
Nothing (down down down down down down down down)
He just wanted to act like them
He just wanted to rap like him
Us as rappers underestimate the power and the effects that we have on these kids
Blunt passed, ash in a tin, pack being pushed, harassed by the feds
The fact of it is most people that rap like this
Talkin' about some shit they haven't lived
Surprise, you know the drill
Trapped in a box, declined record sales
Follow the formula violence, drugs, and, sex sells
So we try to sound like someone else
This is not Californication
There's no way to glorify this pavement
Syrup, Percocet, and an eighth a day will leave you
Broke, depressed, and emotionally vacant
Despite how Lil Wayne lives
It's not conducive to being creative
And I know 'cause he's my favorite
And I know 'cause I was off that same mix
Rationalize the shit that I'd try after I listen to dedication
But he's an alien, I'd sip that shit, pass out or play Playstation
Months later I'm in the same place
No music made, feeling like a failure
And trust me it's not dope to be 25 and move back to your parent's basement
I've seen my people's dreams die
I've seen what they can be denied
And "weeds not a drug" - that's denial
Groundhog Day life repeat each time
I've seen Oxycontin take three lives
I grew up with them, we used to chief dimes
I've seen cocaine bring out the demons inside
Cheatin' and lyin'
Friendship cease, no peace in the mind
Stealin' and takin' anything to fix the pieces inside
Broken, hopeless, headed nowhere
Only motivation for what the dealer's supplying
That rush, that drug, that dope
Those pills, that crumb, that roach
Thinkin' I would never do that, not that drug
And growing up nobody ever does
Until you're stuck, lookin' in the mirror like I can't believe what I've become
Swore I was gonna be someone
And growing up everyone always does
We sell our dreams and our potential
To escape through that buzz
Just keep me up, keep me up
Hollywood here we come
Oh girl this boat is sinking
There's no sea left for me
And how the sky gets heavy
When you are underneath it
Oh, I want to sail away from here
And god. He came down down down down down down down
And said
Nothing
Oh Mädchen, dieses Boot ist am Sinken.
Da ist kein Meer für mich übrig,
und wie der Himmel grau wird,
wenn du darunter stehst.
Oh ich möchte von hier wegsegeln.
Und Gott kam runter, runter, runter, runter.
Und segelte.
Nichts.

Und glaub mir es ist nicht cool 25 zu sein und zurück zu seinen Eltern zu ziehen.
Ich habe die Träume meiner Freunde sterben sehen.
Ich sehe was sie versuchen zu leugnen.
Und, das Weed keine Droge ist ist genauso Verleumdung.
Das Leben am Groundhog Day wiederholt sich für mich jeden Tag.
Ich habe gesehen, wie Oxycontin 3 Leben genommen hat,
Ich bin damit aufgewachsen, jeden Tag high sein.
Ich habe gesehen wie Kokain die Dämonen in dir weckt.
Du betrügst und lügst.
Freundschaft endet, kein Frieden mehr im Herzen.
Du stiehlst und nimmst alles was du kriegen kannst um dich selbst zusammenzuflicken.
Gebrochen, hoffnungslos, gegenüber das große Nichts.
Deine einzige Motivation ist die, die dir die Dealer anbieten.
Dieser Rausch, diese Droge, dieser Kick.
Diese Pillen, die Crumbs, diese Joints.
Ich dachte sowas würde ich nie tun,
Niemals solche Drogen.
Wenn man klein ist denkt das ja keiner.
Bis du irgendwann feststeckst, schaust in den Spiegel,
und kannst nicht glauben, was aus dir geworden ist.
hatte mir immer geschworen, dass ich erfolgreich bin.
Wenn man klein ist denkt das ja jeder.
We verkaufen unsere Träume und unser Potential um durch den Rausch zu fliehen.
Lass mich oben, lass mich oben.
Me and my friend always listen to this version when we're in the car chillin. Good choon.
almost forgot to listen to this today
...incredible song
ikr? im just attracted to good music.
I'm a heavy metal guy. And this song rings true. Lost alot of friends to drugs. Both great artists. Song is phenomenal.
"couldn't get ooooof it "
Couldn't get cough 😷 it .
Brilliant lyrics, and the way he puts it.
one of my all time favorite guitar rifts
THIS is inspiring. THIS is rap.
love this remix
R.I.P. pimp c the South misses you 😢
I get the chills when I listen to this
THE MANDOLIN AT THE END, THAT IS GOOOOOOOOOOD !!
Shit is too good. Been listening for decades
This was fire
This remix is awesome! Totally changes the tone of the song. The original is so unrelentingly depressing (but amazing as all hell)
this song reminds me of high school so muchgood times
I love how this is mixed so good
Best beats, best band. Red Hot Chili Peppers are great.
2018 and still my favourite song 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I am a big fan of RHC myself, but this song goes well with Macklemore too. Don't judge too quickly, man.
It's not even a Beat, it's one of the greatest Songs in the World.
Wow still a big song and hits hard still in 2020 👌
Sobriety is hard as fuck.. but when I think deeply about all of Mack's lyrics it drives me to stay sober.
Dope jam, important message. Most will listen to one but not the other.
so much for a remix its like 99 percent original song
Still gives me chills in 2020
one of the best remixes
his raps have stories in them unlike other raps
Man this is a great mix
I really love this version.
Wish I could get clean… but don’t think I ever will I’ve been sober and it just made me realise how depressing life is so went back to getting High, Because when I’m high it’s the only time I’m happy and feel like I can cope with life Takes away all my pain it gives me a mask and when I’m wearing that mask I don’t feel empty alone and dead inside.
Respect to those people who found happiness in life once they got sober I salute everyone of you’s.!!!
Sick, two epic songs combined!
I cant believe people think that he is copying rhcp. He is using their song with their permission. Artists do this all the time.
people are stupid af.
Word.
Nah he got threatened for using it so he had to switch it to the other one
lol this is a fan made remix bro
Dyllan Hasselberg Incorrect. This is the original version. It's on the Redux EP if you want to find it. Came out around late 2010ish.
This is a mash up by a fan of both artists. its a cross over of both songs, rhcp song and macklemores rapping. lets remember that anthony kedis went through a very similiar drug addiction so its close to his heart too
mixtape love it will never forget
This is awesome; :) I love hearing any Chili's in any style
I am the oner that posted last comment..i lost my father in 2013 to an accidental overdose..n then saw others close tome go thru this also..along with myself being a recovering substance abuser..i fight each day to hold down thise demons and listening to ur music helps me to remember howbad things once were for me as well..now im struggling with keeping someone close to me alive..also
You help and save so many people man you should be proud, im grestful for your love and help, keep it up bro
If you are like me and keep coming back here and it’s been a stretch of time since you went back to that self abuse, comment, time stamp that shit. Your here AGAIN strong, reminding yourself of once was what it was. Go human go!!!
Good for you, getting clean takes strength that only few people have. Stay up.
Dude this is perfect how have I not heard this before now
this is beautiful
I don't even like rap and I've listened to this like thirty times today .. this is the kind of thing the media doesn't want you to hear, because it doesn't sell. It's real, and it's genius. I love RHCP in any form, and it's rare that a song has me feel so many things at once. If you've ever wondered what it feels like to be an addict, this is it.
This remix is so fucking legit. I love the original fences remix, but this is next level. This guy deserves all the attention he is getting.
this is just an epic piece of art !! Thanks to ya for this Masterpiece !
peace love and greets !
this is truly art
You’re a clown
just a perfect remix, love the intro
Thanks bro. Awesome yo!!
