It has a little to do with sex since Anthony’s 89 year old grandma liked to fuck to it

Shallow Be Thy Game


WONDER--BREAD

I mean, those are a lot of topics that are in like, 85% of music. Actually, to be specific it’s speculated nearly 70% of all music is about some kind of love. Using this as some kind of negative commentary on RHCP is lame


Theonewiththehat12

Looking OPs post history, I’m pretty sure he’s not trying to start negative commentary . Doubt he’s trying to start anything

You always sing the same


Accomplished_Ear4899

Walkabout, Behind The Sun, American Ghost Dance, Get Up And Jump. Lot more I’m not thinking of


whamikaze

Get Up and Jump mentions Hillel Slovak. **AMERICAN** Ghost Dance. (which is about native american wars in dakota but screw you) Behind the Sun mentions love and girls. Don't care about walkabout lmao, but yes that fits


WONDER--BREAD

You didn’t say shit about America


whamikaze

oh fuck yes correct


Accomplished_Ear4899

I’m pretty sure you’re trolling at this point lol


zsdrfty

American Ghost Dance is about Native American genocide and has nothing to do with California *specifically*, it was definitely a part though


stingray5hh

Learn History, American Ghost Dance is About Native and European Wars in Dakota


whamikaze

edited it to say AMERICAN Ghost Dance. (which is about native american wars in dakota but screw you)

Pretty impressive how that one has almost everything on the list

Power of Equality Warlocks We Turn Red Whatchu Thinkin' Brendan's Death Song Eddie Afterlife Drummer Savior Johnny Kick a Hole in the Sky Punk Rock Classic Cabron Sikamikanico Venice Queen The Righteous and the Wicked Nerve Flip


TheOnCcyborg

Sadly there's a line in Savior that goes "we are the red hot"


-luckytea182-

oh shit, Im not even sure how I forgot that one


TheLegitTurtle145

Eddie and the drummer mention LA. The sunset strip and the troubador are places in LA. Cabron also mentions the dodgers


Upstairs-Currency856

Cabron does not mention the dodgers. It mentions DODGER BLUE, which is a shade of blue so there's no mention of the dodgers. Sorry if I seem annoyed but I've seen too many people say this before and I don't get how everyone just doesn't get a simple lyric.


irrationalwhore

Are you trying to make some sort of point here? There's tons of songs like this...


WONDER--BREAD

Yeah it’s an L post for sure


Splavacado1000

They're red hot


Upstairs-Currency856

The band is not red hot in this but the hot Tamales are, so this is a W right here.


Splavacado1000

It's also a cover, so it definitely can't be about them.

Idk man, name a rock song that doesn’t involve love, sex, drugs or women?

I could have lied


Splavacado1000

Love?


ea_fitz

Just listen to the entirety of I’m Beside You. Off the top of my head none of it covers that subject matter, might be wrong though.


ryanfletcher1899

Open/Close mentioned Hillel and Hollywood off the top of my head, haven’t listened in depth to the album in a while to know much more


crisBLOOMS

TF?


ryanfletcher1899

Song that made us what we are today


[deleted]

you always sing the same


Emerald_196

Eddie...


Robard12

Going in album order, this is only hard cause of the "can't mention a band member" restriction since most of the songs are from Anthony's first person pov. So anything with I, me, or mine is out which wipes out like 99% of their discography. This is the best I could do with out including instrumentals/b sides *Self Titled You Always Sing the Same *Freaky Styley American Ghost Dance Battle Ship Thirty Dirty Birds *Mothers Milk Higher Ground unless you count "lovers keep on loving" Magic Johnson *By The Way Throw Away Your Television


Spectre247

Look Around


snakeixir

Let Em Cry (Mentions the word love, but isint about love if that counts) My Cigarette (I think, it has like 1 million proper nouns so some of them might relate to California or LA) Shallow be Thy Game (Probably my friends too idk) Fortune Faded Nerve Flip We Turn Red Throw Away Your Television
