The early Nineties. A ruminative ballad. Themes of loneliness and missed opportunities. Bryan Adams? Sting? No, the Chili Peppers, who not only calmed things down for this Blood Sugar Sex Magik gem but infused their music with out-of-nowhere maturity. Their gentlest and most touching song to date, “Under the Bridge” emerged from an awkward starting point. While making that album, the newly sober Kiedis found Flea and Frusciante toking up in a studio and, on the drive home, freestyled a poem and melody “to deal with my own anguish.” (The title referred to an actual overpass in L.A. where Kiedis used to get high.) He initially resisted giving the nascent song to the band — telling Rubin it was out of their wheelhouse given how “slow and dramatic and melodic” it was — but eventually Kiedis relented. What emerged was a downcast tune that still managed to soar and be hopeful (like in the way he stretches out the word “love”), leaving behind all the pain and drama that went into it. —D.B. a b "Red Hot Chili Peppers" (in Finnish).
