| Stadium Arcadium: Condensed Track List
It seems the primary criticism of this album is the excessive length and amount of filler tracks. I tried to create a condensed version - in order - while still maintaining the overall flow of the album. FYI, there are some "deep tracks" that I prefer over some hits that are included here, however i think this order gets all of the album's emotions across in the most concise way possible. Considering the amount of solid b-sides they already have in their discography, I think they should've ditched the double album idea and made a solid regular LP. From a musical/creative standpoint, the below order would've made this album as strong as BSSM, By The Way, Californication, etc. | 1 | Red Hot Chili Peppers Snow (Hey Oh) | 2 | She's Only 18 | 3 | Stadium Arcadium | 4 | Especially In Michigan | 5 | Strip My Mind | 6 | Hey | 7 | Desecration Smile | 8 | Hard To Concentrate | 9 | She Looks To Me | 10 | Slow Cheetah | 11 | Wet Sand | 12 | Readymade | 13 | Torture Me | 14 | Animal Bar | 15 | Death Of A Martian | |

03.20.18 | Desecration Smile is a great song. I know it was a single but I find it pretty underappreciated. And the guitar work on Wet Sand is great. | Butkuiss
03.21.18 | Bold move, leaving Dani Cali and Charlie off this tbqh | Eons
03.21.18 | Good. Dani California is annoying. | wham49
03.21.18 | Dani is so RHCP though
maybe cliche | Butkuiss
03.21.18 | Yeah it's like leaving Enter Sandman off the Black Album. I mightn't like it either but it's a pretty essential song. | Masochist
03.21.18 | I'd leave Dani in. Also, I could do without Strip My Mind, I think; I'd rather have either 21st Century or Storm in a Teacup. But everything else is pretty good. "Wet Sand" is essential, definitely my favorite from this album. | McP3000
03.21.18 | Clever idea for a list.
I was gonna flip chairs if Wet Sand wasn't on here though. | patterson29
03.21.18 | Eons, I agree. It seems like Desecration Smile became one of the lesser known singles over time, despite it being one of their most well written songs.
I guess considering the success Dani California had, it'd make sense to put it on here and take off either She Looks To Me or Hard To Concentrate...it's just hard to leave other significantly better songs in exchange for that lol
Wet Sand is a top 5 RHCP track IMO | SteakByrnes
03.21.18 | Dani should definitely be on it, whether you like it or not | bgillesp
03.21.18 | Storm in a Teacup? |
