Talk:The Zephyr Song

How should I represent this on the main page, I was thinking I should just copy and paste everything I've written up until this sentence? I know they're mismatched because I own both singles since release day. If anyone needs proof I can provide pics of the single but I don't really know how I can give full proof of it without someone else backing me up that theirs is mispressed too (either the catalogue numbers don't match or wrong bsides are listed).

Clarifacation of Zephyr
What Zephyr Is The Song Likley About?

A motorcycle? A Surfboard?

-he says "fly on my wind" and zephyr is the name of one of the four winds. It's about escaping, not a stupid motorcycle or surfboard.

I always thought it was about the ZBoys, the Zephyr Skateboard team, especially considering that there's a line in there "found a way to be a skater..." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Special:Contributions/ (talk)


 * That line might be a reference to the ZBoys, but it's clearly describing a wind, which I guess here is Zephyrus, the west wind. Eebster the Great (talk) 05:31, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Drum Loop?
I don't hear clearly the use of a drum loop. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.189.244.137 (talk) 00:23, 5 March 2007 (UTC).

The intro drum beat before the hi hats come in is a loop. 106.68.153.211 (talk) 08:19, 11 April 2017 (UTC)

Zepher not being played
The intro was played at 22nd of April, 2007 at the vector arena, New zealand, after it was requested as a tribute to Sanji Lee, this guy who got killed by a hit and run driver.

Dancer in the video
There are many questions about her, and i found her (rather quickly). At least i believe it is her. She has the zephyr song listed under her credentials so if anyone with more tech savvy wants to add it to the page that would be very cool. Heres the link. http://www.modelmayhem.com/192 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.201.180.249 (talk) 03:27, 7 October 2014 (UTC)

obvious OR, POVs and trivia
I performed a bit of a tidy on obvious original research, opinions and trivia on this article;
 * "This is the largest number of accumulated unreleased studio recorded B-sides any solitary single the Red Hot Chili Peppers have ever released." - where is this fact sourced to? Up to what date is this accurate?
 * "During the By the Way World Tour, the song was played extensively at most live concerts however following the band's 2004 Roll on the Red tour, the song wasn't performed again until November 2016." - where has this fact come from?
 * "numerous" - this is a uninformative word designed to convey the opinion that it's a lot. How many is it?  In whose opinion is it a lot?
 * "Glitch" - where does this fact come from? Who says it's a glitch?  Either way, it's utter trivia.
 * "Pressing error" - What source does this come from? It also is quite trivial.

How is this acoustic rock?
The genre in the infobox refers to this song as acoustic rock. Meanwhile, the actual song contains a drum machine, an electric bass, and an electric guitar. 106.68.153.211 (talk) 08:20, 11 April 2017 (UTC)

I know, right? I'll change it. 125.209.178.47 (talk) 11:34, 25 July 2017 (UTC)
