The Red Hot Chili Peppers have explained the thinking behind the video for their new single Dani California.

Speaking in an interview with MTV News, the Peppers explained that it was all about paying homage to musical eras over the past few decades, many of which they have lived through. Were paying homage to these eras, said singer Anthony Kiedis. We appreciate and love all these eras.

Its very interesting because for a band like us, if weve been around long enough and weve lived through a lot of these eras at least the ones from the 80s on, and though weve always been conscious of our environment and aware of whats going on around us but weve never been aligned specifically within the era of any group and its fun to pay homage to something.

Red Hot Chili Peppers play a secret gig in London tomorrow night (April 14), hosted by Radio 1.
