}} "The Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie" is a song from the Red Hot Chili Peppers' tenth album ''I'm with You'' and was the first single released from the album. It is their first single released since "Hump de Bump" in 2007 and the first single released with new guitarist, Josh Klinghoffer. The song was released to radio on July 15, 2011, three days earlier than expected due to an accidental leak. The digital download was made available on July 18 while the CD single was released four days later. The single became the band's record holding 12th number one single on the ''Billboard'' Alternative Songs chart where it spent four straight weeks atop the chart. ==Song background== The song's bass-line was conceived in bassist Flea's kitchen.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Red Hot Chili Peppers' rebirth – Page 2 )〕 Anthony Kiedis notes that "When I first heard (song ), I didn't know it would be a single. () I knew that I loved the jam. () I took it home and it felt so fun to listen to at length that I literally left it on in my driveway, opened the door and danced with the tree next to me for quite a while. I had no idea that it would even be a song, I just thought, 'Oh, this is a great dance track. Let's put it on as a B-side, () hour long.' And then, as fate would have it, people heard it, and they were like, 'Oh, that's your best thing right there. That's your ''best'' thing.'" When asked about who exactly Maggie is, Kiedis said that he is not about to reveal his inspirations. "It's just a collection of memories and people along the way that had maybe left my consciousness until I heard that music, and then they kind of came dancing back into my consciousness, and out the old pen onto the paper. "Names have been changed to protect the innocent. Although there is a Maggie, I realized later. There's two Maggies, actually."〔 Flea was asked about the single and said that he was not really good at picking singles and really did not know which song was good to be released first. He described the song as a cool, simple, funky little jam but being completely different from the rest of the songs on the album and nothing else sounds like it. Flea stated that the band wrote 70 songs so not even necessarily all the best songs made it onto the album, just the ones that occupy their own space. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
