# Argh.
No offence to your work, but I can't stand that song.

I was hoping it would bean ode to toilet bowls.

# Red Hot Chili Peppers
i like their old albums a little better,(the case for most bands)
it's from the album "Californication"

# I would argue
that RHCP are the exception to that rule - their work from Califonication onwards has been better than anything else they have done in my opinion.

# I wouldn't go that far.
But Scar Tissue is certainly the best song they have ever written.

# Nah.
Don't like their new stuff. It lacks funk.

# They are still
the Funky Monks, no denying it.

# I think
that's why I like it - they are doing more songwriting these days and not relying purely on their outstanding musicianship anymore.

I enjoy listening to their virtuoso playing, but it takes a well written song with a bit more depth to keep me coming back.

# Yeah, I don't think that's what I'm looking for in them.
They're not a band I look to for thought provoking material really.

Maybe it's just because we're approaching it from different directions.

# Really?
I don't think I have any of his stuff.
(goat thinks you're shit, Sat 13 Mar 2004, 0:14, archived)
# I have
a song of his that I recorded backing for ages ago, but he never got round to singing the final version of the vocal.

Maybe one day you will all hear it.

EDIT: And he sings on this... www.mysterybob.com/flipper.htm

# I reckon Alfie has a lovely tone to his voice
he could be great with a few lessons to strengthen his hold on notes.

# alfie once came with me to an after show party one sunday and sang really loud
to a group of techno germans strung out on a weekend of drugs.
some of them really liked it.
some of them were squirming on the floor silently gasping like fish and holding their bleeding ears.
it was very emotional for that time of day.
