Fortune Faded

"Fortune Faded" is a song by the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

One of the single's B-sides, "Bunker Hill" was originally recorded for Californication, while the other, "Eskimo", was written during By the Way.

"Fortune Faded" was originally recorded for the By the Way album and was played live a few times in 2001 with a chorus that is different from the Greatest Hits version.

The band did not like how the By the Way sessions version sounded; as such, it was re-recorded for the Greatest Hits collection.

A rough mix with a guide vocal of the By The Way sessions version with the original chorus has surfaced online, but has never been officially released by the band.
