but like many songs on stadium acradium it isnt a patch on previous work

 

I guess so, I mean that seems to be the general idea that most fans have but I dunno. SA is just too long. Too many tracks so it's harder to get to know them and it takes nearly 2 hours to listen to both albums. Not many albums are instant with you. It takes quite a lot of full album listens to get to know the album properly ie Maximo Park and I guess people just don't have the patience to listen to 24 odd songs all the way through. :lol:

DigitalSpy single review:

 

"Hump de bump doop bodu bump de hump doop bop hump de bump doop bodu," sings Anthony Kiedis on 'Hump De Bump', the fifth single from the Red Hot Chili Peppers' Stadium Arcadium LP. He pauses for breath. "Bump de hump doop bodu hump de bump doop bop bump de hump doop bodu bump bump". Is this the best that one the world's biggest bands have to offer us?

 

Still, this single is as funky as finding Prince locked in your basement throwing some shapes to 'Get Up (I Feel Like Being A Sex Machine)'. Its 30-second percussion breakdown, frantic slap-bass and endearingly daft brass squiggles are undeniably impressive, but there's an uncomfortable whiff about it that we can't quite shake off. Hmm. You know what, 'Hump De Bump' is the sound of four middle-aged men indulging in a mutual self-love session. Musically-speaking, of course.

 

3/5

This song was my worst song last year that was never released as a single. It looks like it'll be going one better this year. An insult to the Red Hot Chili Peppers catalogue of music. Though to be fair there's not much on Stadium Arcadium that isn't.

Is at #87 so in the iTunes download chart so far! :D

 

If there's been an update, I expect it may have climbed, but I can't be bothered to check my iTunes music store at the moment. :lol:

Is up to #79 at the moment. :D Is released May 7th if I remember correctly. Doubt it'll fair too well chart wise but hopefully it should be another Top40 hit for the Chili's at least! :D

Well this has failed to even make the Top40 on the week of it's physical release!!! :lol:

 

I don't think it's done anything for the album either.

It made #41 on the end. :D

 

Would have been nice to see another Top40 hit for them, but I think the record company were asking too much by releasing a 5th single from Stadium Arcadium...
