Top 10 Reasons Why "by the Way" is Red Hot Chili Pepper's Best Album

The Top Ten
1 It's their most melodic album
2 Dosed is their best song
3 It has their best ballad songs (Dosed, Tear, Venice Queen)
4 It's psychedelic (The Zephyr Song, Universally Speaking)
5 For a 16 track album, there are hardly any bad/mediocre tracks

I Could Die For You, Don't Forget Me, and Cabron were my only weak tracks

6 It has some of their most underrated tracks (Warm Tape, Tear, On Mercury, Minor Thing)
7 By The Way is their best opening track

It combines their soft melodic side with their more aggressive rap side

8 The whole thing has a consistently feel-good vibe without trying too hard
9 It's the album that got me into the band
10 It never gets old!

I've listened to it many many times and it refuses to be worn out
