“If it was up to me we’d probably never had a hit song. ‘Cause I don’t usually come up with the songs that are our real popular hit songs. That’s more you [Anthony] and John. If it was up to me we’d have a bunch of B-sides and art songs.” - Flea

We’d much rather have something that has some mistakes in it that we all played together and there’s a magic feel in it, as opposed to getting it all perfect.” - Flea
