 Good CD November 11, 2007
Mary (Ohio)
Good cd for a collector. If you are not a big fan of the peppers and like this song this cd is worth buying. If you are a fan buy the complete cd.
 Nice a-side, intriguing b-side. December 22, 2006

"Dani California" was the leadoff single to the Red Hot Chili Peppers' "Stadium Arcadium", released per standard operating procedure from Warner Bros. as a two part single.
The track itself is a great piece, with an odd lurching swing to its verses and an explosive chorus relying on a Pixie-like loud-soft formula. The song has drawn a lot of negative attention for its similarities to Tom Petty's "Last Dance With Mary Jane"-- I didn't note the similarity until it was pointed out to me, as such it really didn't do much to my opinion of the piece.
The second part of the single contains one b-side in "Million Miles of Water". Clean tone electric guitars and tight arrangements dominate the verses, opening up into a bright chorus where the instrumental density uncoils. All in all, it's nice stuff.
Still, the title track is on the album and it's sort of hard to rationalize paying a markup for an out of print single for one track. This one's decent, but it's probably better left to the diehards.

A Million Miles Of Water is a good song. It's not wildly rocking, but it's not a ballad either. The verses are funky and it has a chorus that's very melodic. If you like songs like Charlie or She Looks To Me then you'll like this one too.

It is so hard to believe it, but the Red Hot Chili Peppers still have maintained their rock edge for almost 25 exciting years, and they still have the appeal of making some great pop songs. Their latest single is definitely no acception to that rule. Dani California, the first single from the chilis' latest record Stadium Arcadium is a great song that is just driven, upbeat, and worth every bit of what the group has brought as their best within the past several years of following the success of tracks like Californication, Can't Stop, and By The Way. I absolutely like this song a lot, because it is just great to listen to. I just hope that more funky rock will continue from this legendary party group.
Song: B 1/2+
