  1. Scar Tissue

    Scar Tissue is the first single from the American rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers seventh studio album Californication, released in 1999. It is one of their most successful songs, spending a then-record 16 consecutive weeks atop the US Billboard Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart as well as 10 weeks atop the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, and it reached number nine on the Billboard Hot 100. It was also successful in Iceland, New Zealand and Canada, reaching numbers one, three and four, respectively. In the United Kingdom, it charted at number 15 on the UK Singles Chart. "Scar Tissue" is considered to be representative of the new, more melodic rock sound the band experimented with on Californication (in contrast to the psychedelic One Hot Minute, and dry funk of Blood Sugar Sex Magik). The song is notable for its mellow intro guitar riff and for its slide guitar solos throughout. Guitar World placed the guitar solo 63rd in its list of the "100 Greatest Guitar Solos". "Scar Tissue" won a Grammy Award for Best Rock Song in 2000.

  1. scar tissue

    Scar tissue is a type of fibrous tissue that replaces normal tissue after an injury or surgery. It is less elastic and responsive than the original tissue, often resulting in a visible scar and sometimes restricting the movement of the affected area. This dense, fibrous material is composed mostly of collagen and developed by the body during the wound healing process as a protective response.
