Subject: red hot chili peppers- If you want me to stay
If You Want Me To Stay
By the Red Hot ChiLi PePPeRs
from the album Freaky Styley
and What Hits?!?
This song has only one bassline which continues over and over again.
This ENTIRE thing is slapped, but it sounds just as good played normal.

| I like the way this song is sorta slow but fast. Bass line keeps on going and stuff like the guitar and the trumpet a really chilled give the song a nice relaxing feel. Takes me back to the 70's well makes me think about the seventies I wasnt born till the 90's. I think it is Flea playing trumpet on this youknow record bass then played trumpet over. I doubt they would have got anyone else into to play when they have such a great musician to use. | |

| This definitely a great song. I think it is about a guy who feels that he's not appreciated. He is leaving his woman for a while | |

| I think its about a guy leaving his number one girlfriend and going to see his other girl for a while til number one really gets the message that shes the one. Oh and sly and the family stone did this but the chili peppers always have a way of making a song their own. | |

| I just went to see the chilis and straight after the encore they played this on the speakers. i thought they were playing it as a last song but then realised it was on the speakers. it wasnt the sly and the family stone's version though. man that woulda been the best thing if they played it. | |
