How the By the Way track order game works

Every card is a song from By the Way, and the job is to put the Red Hot Chili Peppers' tracklist back together. The line opens with one track already in place, number showing. Each new title goes into the gap you pick. When you're right, its number shows. When you're wrong, the song still lands where it belongs, but you lose one of three lives.

This is the band's most melodic album, built on layered harmonies and Frusciante's lush guitar parts, with far less slap-bass funk than their earlier records. Because so much of it shares that dreamy, harmony-heavy sound, the songs blur together. The hit singles are anchors. The long run of mid-tempo album songs is the hardest part of the deck.
