Rhyme n Reason 3
Whats da deal....Much Thanks for all those who checked out Rhyme n Reason 1 & 2.....This week i went with the Red Hot Chili Peppers. I must let it be known this is one of m favorite groups. They have alot of great songs i like but the song that really tocuh a nerve when i heard "Under The Bridge." Before i go any further take a listen. Red Hot Chili Peppers "Under The Bridge"
Nice Song dont u agree? First let me say the music is on point. The intro is captures u off top. The guitar is inducing and Anthony Keidis voice blends perfectly with instruments. That being said what do u think this song is about??? Dont kno okay okay i will give u my opinion. I have been told this song is about drugs and the way it makes u feel. I think in particular heroine. If u listen closely to the lyrics u will hear "take me to the place i love where i drew some blood." That should be enough proof right there. But i am gonna be honest when i first heard this song i didnt figure that out. So i have two different feelings n outlook on this song. I mean the first impression i got from this song is that it was written from lonely feeling we all get sometimes. Which it probally was. I automaticaly identified with the song. It actually struck a nerve. Cause I have actually felt at times all alone with no one to talk to or no one to give an helping hand. And trust me that is a lonely place and for the writer to tap into the realm musically, that is talent people. Its hard enough to dig deep within yourself and talk about that loneliness let alone write a song about it. But hey music is therapy especially when it shows you your not the only one feelin certain feelings. Now, when i heard it was about taking drugs ironically it still made sense to me. Some times when lonely n down some people turn to drugs. Now let me say i do not think its the right think to do but lets just be real for a sec. If u ever took any kinda drug you know that high you get for the first time you could end up chasing it for the rest of your life. But overall this song was written and put together brillantly. Once again it shows great artist write great songs from the most inspiring thing which is life.
Thats my opinion let me hear u....Holla at ya peoples!
