Professor Of Rock has shared the video below, along with the following introduction…
“I got one for ya. Today’s song ‘Soul To Squeeze’ was cut from the Red Hot Chili Peppers’ ground-breaking album, Blood Sugar Sex Magik. It was turned into a B-side several times, and then put on the soundtrack of one of the worst movies of its time, The Coneheads, as an afterthought. And then out of nowhere, it flew up the charts and became a #1 smash? Well, ‘Soul To Squeeze’ did exactly that. The Chili Peppers had it all ready to go as a part of their famous double album, but at the last second, their label demanded they cut the double record in half. And since they’d already written a similar song, they just dropped it. They thought it was just OK anyway, so it was no skin off their noses. But as it turns out, ‘Soul To Squeeze’ resonated with a lot of people who felt like outcasts. I guess everybody loves an underdog. Up next, we have the unlikely story of a second-class b-side from the soundtrack of the worst movie of the year that became a bona fide rock classic on Professor Of Rock.”
