This band holds the record for most number one singles on the modern rock charts

What is... Red Hot Chili Peppers? Correct! 11 matter of fact

Song: Gong Li
Band: Red Hot Chili Peppers

No doubt RHCP is one of the sickest bands ever; they have to be doing something right in order to stay relevent for almost 25 years. I stumbled across this song on last.fm (an uber cool online radio) and found this little b-side track.

Anyways it's gotta be one of the most soulful songs ever. The harmonized chorus is just sublime and the weird 6/8 timed instrumental bridges are pretty cool.... and of course great lyrics.

Give it a listen.

I have no idea why it's named after Gong Li; if anyone figures it out i'll give them something. If anyone knows any other good/obscure RHCP songs, comment!
