One of the funkiest and thrilling tracks off the latest RHCP album ‘The Getaway’ gets an indie movie style music video. Flea’s bass break near the end of this track that jumps into this chaotic guitar/drum attack from Chad Smith and Josh Klinghoffer is just a tornado of sweetness. It falls after these engaging lyrics about this very conflicted and stressed person. it’s easily my favorite song on the album.
The video features a female running from one social interaction to another stealing beer, making out with random people and it just infers she is running from a lot more than security guards with dogs.
The Peppers have been on a good streak recently with hit music videos. Another track off ‘the Getaway’ called ‘Go Robot’ drew more 11 million views showing off Anthony Kiedis as a ‘Saturday Night Fever’ style mime who must find his fellow body painted lover in a disco party that features Chad as an noneffective bouncer.
