"bunch of crazy white people... "


Every Billboard Modern Rock Chart #1 through 2005, listed in order of preference.  

67. Red Hot Chili Peppers, "Give It Away"

October 26 - November 8, 1991



By the time this video came out, the cynicism of grunge was afoot and I was outgrowing Batdances (I didn't realize I'd put three together when I made the list, I swear). Lyrically, this may be the concept's apex, a naked treatise on the merits of open sexuality, communal bonding, antimaterialism and Bob Marley, setting the stage for a great four years at college (if only I had been listening!). What they'd like is they'd like to hug and kiss you, and everyone can enjoy that.

I'm a low brow but I rock a little know how
No time for the piggies or the hoosegow
Get smart get down with the pow wow
Never been a better time than right now
