Red Hot Chili Peppers - Castles Made Of Sand Lyrics
Down the street you can hear her scream
"you're a disgrace"
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
He cries "oh girl, you must be mad
What happened to the sweet love you and me had"
Against the door he leans and starts a scene
And his tears fall and burn the garden green
And so castles made of sand,
Fall in the sea eventually
A little indian brave who before he was ten
Played war games in the woods with his indian friends
He would be a fearless warrior indian chief
Many moons passed and the dream grew strong until tomorrow
He would sing his first war song
And fight his first battle but something went wrong
Surprise attack killed him in his sleep that night
And so castles made of sand
Melts into the sea eventually
There was a young girl whose heart was a frown
Because she was crippled for life and couldn't speak a sound
And she wished and prayed she would stop living
So she decided to die
She drew her wheel chair to the edge of the shore
And to her legs she smiled
"you won't hurt me no more"
But then a sight she'd never seen made her jump and say
"look a golden winged ship is passing my way"
And it really didn't have to stop
It just kept on going
And so castles made of sand
Slips into the sea eventually

Red Hot Chili Peppers Castles Made Of Sand Comments
Frusciante... 18/19?
Or reading comments it's Navarro from 94?
Guitar's sounds so dry. Straight from the di. I wonder. Anyway, great cover !
Take it Johnny
Great cover
I got stood over 2 provide 6 to ten cans of mixed drink and a full bottle of bourbon for some blokes birthday that I wasn't even invited too....
And he burn me on the left side of my neck to help his group see where they could over dose me for the lady who was having fun
Don't punish the men, but let he woman live and possibly she might come back from the SOCK factory.
All axis bold as love is not on here
Jimi hendrix version is better
how much violence and sweet dreams just like castles made os sand.
He's back!!!!! Also, HE'S BACK!!!!!!!
this is sooooooo jimi hendrix, i don't think i've ever heard a song that sounded like him so much o god
Masterpiece 🎸🏆
Original is unavailable
This is just as good
So what's he saying? Nothing is forever?
Got it.
Gracias hendrix de solo escucharla ya me siento drogado 😉
Esta mejor la versión en vivo que venia en el single taste The pain(lo escribí otra ves por que sin querer borre este comentario)
Why cant i find jimis video!?
I LOVE this version of a classic! John is a modern day Hendrix and a pretty nice guy on Twitter. This band is my Toni's favorite, she is very dear to me and I'll never hear this band and not think of her.
Sad song but the real tragedy is you can't get the real version on fucking YouTube
free peace
I just discovered this. Love the live one from out in LA
Blood Sugar Sex Magik is one of my all-time favourite albums, and Castles Made Of Sand is one of my all-time favourites songs by Hendrix, so I was thinking "How can this be?" - ah, it's a bonus track. Beautiful surprise.
Amazing cover... Gratitude
"Fall in THE Sea" Eventually
Yepp... The little Native American boy war-chief getting killed in his sleep always gets me.. Regardless of who's singing it.
Hermoso Frusciante
Minute 3:03 John frusciante Sounds likes Steve Vai
Liam Lazcano it sounds like the beginning of the Hendrix version lol
watching this so smaked on acid
Beautiful
Down the street you can hear her scream "you're a disgrace"
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbors start to gossip and drool, yes they do
He cries "Oh, girl you must be mad
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?"
Against the door he leans and starts a scene
And his tears fall and burn the garden green, yes they do
And so castles made of sand fall in the sea, eventually
A little Indian brave who before he was ten
Played war games in the woods with his Indian friends
And he built up a dream that when he grew up
He would be a mighty warrior Indian chief
Many moons past and more the dream grew strong until
Tomorrow he would sing his first war song and fight his first battle
But something went wrong, a surprise attack killed him in his sleep that night, damn
And so castles made of sand melts into the sea, eventually
There was a young girl, whose heart was a frown
'Cause she was crippled for life
She couldn't speak a sound
And she wished and prayed she could stop living
So she decided to die
She drew her wheelchair to the edge of the shore
And to her legs she smiled "you won't hurt me no more"
But then a sight she'd never seen made her jump and say
"Look a golden winged ship is passing my way"
And it really didn't have to stop, it just kept on going...
And so castles made of sand slips into the sea, eventually
Castles made of
Castles made of
Imagine Hendrix with Flea
Hendrix=John
Why would such a weak band try covering Jimi...
Bad idea
LOOKA GOLDENWINGSHIP IS PASSIN MY WAYYYee......................................................but it didn't really have to stop.....it just kept on goin........*inhales*AND SOME CASTLESMADEOFSANDdd....slippzz...into the seaaa....eventualyyy..........................
lol ....---- you actually doing what I do at a live concert :-P
Man that solo should’ve been so much longer
Frusciante's short orgasmic flower
They did it justice.
awesome cover, awesome guitar tone
Siempre me gustò eventchually..y ese fin de guitarra.
...No es limmdo. Jimy???
Tan besho como el aire en movimiento del vientoen la cara ..mientras lahamaca rescata vueloooohhhhhh....
Thank goodness there is not a lot of people that dont like this master piece 🤘🏼
I like covers that don't sound exactly the same as the original. That's the point of a cover. It's this bands take on the original. Why do people not understand that?
So slow compared to the Hendrix version.
I prefer this speed because you can take it all in and i like the guitar better
Anyone else think this song sounds even better at 1.25x ?
I’m not taking anything away from this cover but I like the one they play live on stage much better
Down the street, you can hear her scream, "You're a disgrace"
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbors start to gossip and drool
He cries, "Oh girl, you must be mad
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?"
Against the door he leans and starts a scene
And his tears fall and burn on the garden green
And so castles made of sand
Fall in the sea
Eventually
A little Indian brave who before he was ten
Played war games in the woods with his Indian friends
And he built a dream that when he grew up
He would be a fierce warrior Indian chief
Many moons passed 'fore the dream grew strong
Until tomorrow he would sing his first war song
And fight his first battle, but something went wrong
Suprise attack killed him in his sleep that night
And so castles made of sand
Melts into the sea
Eventually
There was a young girl whose heart was a frown
Because she was crippled for life, and she couldn't speak a sound
And she wished and prayed she could stop living
So she decided to die
She drove her wheelchair to the edge of the shore
And to her legs she smiled, "You won't hurt me no more"
But then a sight she'd never seen made her jump and say
"Look, a golden winged ship is passing my way"
And it really didn't ever stop
It just kept on going
And so castles made of sand
Slips into the sea
Eventually
Evelyne Schmid I think it’s ,fearless warrior Indian chief’?
joel coker I agree! This version too make's me tear up at the end!
I'm actually like this cover more than original version.
Bad opinion
@Anti World I agree with him. I know its not better than jimi but i like the guitar WAY better on this just for the sound. The originals guitar is really quiet
@Gonçalo Azevedo I see you have a hard time taking others opinions. I just think it sounds more prominent on this version, almost like a perfect remaster.
Insane love base flee is the best base I have ever hear red hot u the bomb
'YouTube cancer'.
''sorry but this is a cover.. " And well The Original is an original and originally it's going to be the first and the best one.. (So sick of Reading this comment, blah blah blahs) - so then when the cover comes along I'm gonna have to say it's a cover and not as good as the original.. 😩🔫 fucks givin..
Play this at 2x the speed you won’t regret it
the spanu man you're a genius
An Indian brave, who before he was ten
Played war games in the woods with his Indian friends
And he built a dream that when he grew up
He would be a fearless warrior Indian chief
Many moons passed and the dream grew strong until tomorrow
He would sing his first war song
And fight his first battle but something went wrong
Surprise attack killed him in his sleep that night
Love that part... <3
Best Cover...Big muff, isn't it?
This makes my heart smile
Bravo, c' est le titre de Jimi que je préfère ,très bien repris par de groupe génial des Red Hot,ça vaut le détour merci à tous
so just like be it
Mad Respeck to Jimi...! Well played peppers.
74, 75 and 76
Set to 1.25x for Hendrix speed.
Wow, this actually works for this song. Usually I try this and it sounds like shit at other songs but this works out fine. Thanks
Actually so good
Totally. Dig. This.
i actually prefer the song at this speed...
Set to 50.00x for Nightcore.
Take it, Johnny!
Such an amazing cover with an awesome remade solo ( backwards solo was awesome too )
John Frusciante is the shit!
this is so beautiful, I want to cry. one of the best covers they've ever done
No dia que irei morrer essa será a última música que irei escutar.
Anakin's least favorite song.
Higher Ground?
E Y OMG YESSSSS
@E Y It hurts man
Hahahahaha
It sux how I can't find the actual original Hendrix version on YouTube. Smh
Type it in google and some random site will pop up with it .has it called vemo
It's uploaded to jimi's channel about a month ago
G. R same lol
its on spotify. just download the app on the computer its free just a couple of ads every now and then
you would have to have been there,ha!
Shity vocals
Henrique de oliveira not at all
Es una cancion muy Red Hot... Les sienta muy bien! Es increible que Jimi compusiera cosas tan variadas...
Alguién me pasa el tema original de Jimi?
I feel like this is honestly not one of their best...
one of my favorite covers ever. so beautiful
Love This!!
M.D. mx
Listening to the original it sounds like a RCHP song. The way the clean guitars are and the beat.
Psychedelic Lizard Jimi's voice sounds very similar to Anthony's voice in the original song
You mean RHCP sounds like a jimi song right
I like the original better. Bad ass cover though
This is beautiful
OMG why haven't I heard this cover yet
what tuning is this
Creep OnRocking should be E flat
probs Eb
or d# standard if you prefer
Superb cover
At the very end did it sound like the guitar was slightly out of tune?
Yes a bit. But maybe intentional by bending the strings.
This song makes me sand
I guess its kinda sad but everything goes back to normality, or "slips in the sea", . . . eventually. the cycle of life i suppose.
Your Nan that’s what the songs about!
take it johnnyyy
"Take it, Johnny"
A song I can listen to over and over without it ever getting old
me tòo
1:49 take it Johnny Gave me shivers <3
Amazing.
whatever Jimi Hendrix is, he's smiling
@Saulo Silva yep For this man, SRV is a King and has his own way to play hendrix. Frusciante is crazy about hendrix and has a terrific tone in his strat, u don't know Nothing about music
He's a corpse
Mike Lethe stfu
@Saulo Silva já tomou no cu hj?
Wherever
jimi will always be the best but rhcp amazing too
"iTunes bonus track from one hot minute 1991" you're not the brightest are ya?
It was released as an bonus track on I-tunes years later (obviously) you idiot. Also, One Hot Minute came out in 95.. This is from the Blood Sugar era..
It was released as the b-side to taste the pain. It's been re-packaged as a bonus download just like every other band/album in the world that had tons of quality b-sides. iTunes has nothing to do with it...that's just a place you click "download".
one of the greatest covers ever.
amazinggggg. sex to my ears
I effin love this cover song.
How appropriate, today...
what happened to the sweet love you and me had?
read this right when the song said it lol
Same lol
great version, but im sorry it isnt quite as good as jimi's in my opinion
ruth tahsin you can't beat Jimi mate
ruth tahsin you're an idiot. John guitar parts are 90% note for note. This is as good a cover you're ever going to get from mainstream musicians
There is very interesting version. LAZY VOCALS, and it's super. Don't compare to Jimi
it is not meant to be
Well no shit captian obvious. You dont say
VERY COOL> Never been a RHCP fan and never heard this before. HUGE respect!
so how did you get here?
like we all do.. music love
Gal Cesana likely looking up the original...
wow nice
