Never had a song touch me like this one. Both beautiful and haunting. There is both comfort and loneliness to it. Finally got a Scar Tissue tattoo on my arm last year. I’ll spend my last days listening to this bands music.
Aun recuerdo la primera vez que escuche los primeros acordes de esta canción; nunca más me separaría de ella. Que nostalgia más grande.
I don't think that any other song has shaped me as a person and as a musician as much as Scar Tissue. It fits perfectly into every mood and never gets old. Just beautiful.
Listening to this beautiful song Enjoying the night, feeling confused... and what a feeling it is
guitar riff is still absolutely timeless 17 years on!
The coolest RHCP vid. Frusciante nailin that melancholy solo at the end while the sun sets in a lonely desert. And the Peppers look a bit like they been brawling. Probably a semi-true story, fighting their way out of an early career gig, barely escaping with their lives. Yet Frusciante saves his beloved Strat
"Scar Tissue" feels like a journey through nostalgia, pain, and acceptance. The barren landscapes and damaged car mirror the band’s struggles, while the haunting guitar solo carries a sense of quiet resilience. There’s something beautifully broken about it—like scars that tell a story rather than just mark the past. Watching this, I asked ChatGPT about its meaning, and it echoed the themes of survival and transformation. Funny enough, even ChatGPT can’t fully capture the raw emotion in Frusciante’s playing. Some feelings just exist beyond words, carried in the spaces between the notes.
[Verse 1] Scar tissue that I wish you saw Sarcastic mister know-it-all Close your eyes and I'll kiss you 'Cause with the birds I'll share [Chorus] With the birds, I'll share this lonely view With the birds, I'll share this lonely view [Verse 2] Ah, push me up against the wall Young Kentucky girl in a push-up bra Ah, fallin' all over myself To lick your heart and taste your health, 'cause [Chorus] With the birds (Share this lone—), I'll share this lonely view With the birds (Share this lone—), I'll share this lonely view With the birds (Share this lone—), I'll share this lonely view [Verse 3] Blood loss in a bathroom stall A southern girl with a scarlet drawl I wave good-bye to Ma and Pa 'Cause with the birds I'll share [Chorus] With the birds (Share this lonely), I'll share this lonely view With the birds (Share this lonely), I'll share this lonely view [Verse 4] Soft-spoken with a broken jaw Step outside but not to brawl and Autumn's sweet, we call it fall I'll make it to the moon if I have to crawl and [Chorus] (I will share this lonely) With the birds, I'll share this lonely view (I will share this lonely) With the birds, I'll share this lonely view (I will share this lonely) With the birds, I'll share this lonely view [Instrumental Break] [Verse 1] Scar tissue that I wish you saw Sarcastic mister know-it-all Close your eyes and I'll kiss you 'Cause with the birds I'll share [Chorus] (I will share this lonely) With the birds, I'll share this lonely view (I will share this lonely) With the birds, I'll share this lonely view (I will share this lonely) With the birds, I'll share this lonely view [Guitar Solo]
Uff, this song is a wall of nostalgia for me, the whole Californication era was a big part of my teens soundtrack.
Best song to drive to after a long hard day
Que nunca mueran estos temas y esta música. Que bueno aver crecido con esta musica❤
Eu via esse clip em 360p, agr posso ver em 4k, o feeling disso é incrível. Simplesmente Red Hot Chili Peppers, a melhor música de todos os tempos. O melhor clip de todos os tempos.
Twenty years ago I was a Tech Support taking a call from a customer. After a quick conversation, my customer accidentally left me on hold and this was the music playing.. Instead of dropping the call, I listened to it for hours, dancing to the beat while everyone was busy taking calls. Awesome day.
Frusciante playing on his broken guitar is the most expresive and emotional moment i've ever seen.
Unic band with special sounds..now every time I hear them I got melancholy and I'm smiling remember all these good times in the past..we thank you for all that masterpiece❤
I just remembered this song after like 20 years out of the blue. Especially the "this lonely viewuuuuuuuuuuuuuu....' and the guitar that follows. Transported back in time.
Em 2017/2018, muitas coisas aconteceram e quando percebi me vi sozinho, sem amigos, sem pets, sem ninguém, apenas Eu e Deus no dia de natal. Comprei uma guitarra sem saber tocar apenas para aprender Scar Tissue, passei o natal e ano novo aprendendo, diante de lagrimas e alegria a cada nota aprendida, refletia tudo. Desde esse dia, lembro e toco essa musica na guitarra para mim no fim do ano. Essa musica pegou um momento da minha vida onde tudo mudou e fez eu redefinir muitas coisas, a tristeza e angustia se foram, mas uma hora ou outra volto aqui nesse hino pra lembrar de tudo que fez eu mudar tudo. Obg John e por acaso meu nome tbm é John, obg RCHP!
Every time I hear red hot chilli peppers it reminds me of being in the back of my parents car on our way to our holiday in Cornwall driving down all the country roads. The memories ❤
