Great analysis!

Great information, very useful. Thank you!

Not sure if it's a good suggestion, but when you are analyzing a certain song, maybe adding it in the background very quietly would be nice enchantment. Anyways, love the channel and waiting for more!

Gosh, This is how it really goes

That's a great piece of interview! I like how he made his point of view about that time, and how it affected the other band mates

LOVE THIS

I only knew John for a year in high school, but at that time, I knew he was the tripiest person that I ever knew. Still the case 'til this day. Shy, but once he knew you, you knew where he stood with you. Very opinionated. Doubly smart and rambunctious. At that time, cigarettes (Winston Reds) and coffee were his only vice. Well, if you include music, art in general really kept his mind flowing. Thoughts. Hypothetical thoughts and ideas on many aspects. John was a master-debater!!! 😂😂😂 Steve Vai was big time on his radar at that time. Jimi, of course, and I loved to bug him to play Purple Haze for me. He, of course, was a teen and could lay into you, but you knew if it was playful or scathing. I'd love to let him know that I remember those times fondly. ❤

Coolest channel on yt 💜💜

Combining some of my favourite things into one channel??? 🫶

The empyrean is a whole different kettle of fish. It's superbly brilliant

When I was 13, I discovered John's solo work through RHCP. I fell in love with the authenticity and the music. I didn't understand his lyrics - due to the fact that I was not a native speaker of English, but they also seemed very strange, contradictory and complicated to me). I forgot about John's work for several years (that is, I didn't listen to his music or think about him at all). Fast forward to when I'm 30 - lately I've been very interested in psychology, discovering the Self and Jung's model. I'm also going to therapy with a therapist who specializes in Jungian psychoanalysis. And yesterday, out of nowhere, I thought: “let's go back to John's works for inspiration, you loved him so much growing up” (btw. I'm a musician and John is the main reason I am one). I lay in my room listening to “Smile From The Streets You Hold” and cried like a baby for probably too long. And THEN today this video appeared. I can't explain it, but I feel like the universe is telling me something. My subconscious is connecting the dots or something. I don't know. Thank you for this. BTW, I'm waiting for more interpretations of his work, especially Enclosure, PBX, because I'm too dumb to understand those lyrics. Keep it up!!!

I’ve always heard those same lyrics u mentioned at first the brothers who drove arrows is immediately recognized as a real situation with real people not esoteric like his other lyrics

Very nice video! I have note about the dead of John, if this sleeping/dead is simbolic. Because I read few years ago that at the end of his drug use when he was brought to the hospital, he was for short period of time clinicaly dead. If its something on it, it will also explain transcendent experience for him and all these things which he captures in his lyrics. What do you think about it? Thanks for the video, I will be waiting for next ones:)

Im glad i found your channel! Its always good to listen to john's take on music and hear other people's analysis on it so to have a dedicated channel for it is so cool to see.

Can you please make a video on 'Shadow collide with people'.

Best channel ever! Can I share this on Fbook?

So cool understanding what is art from my favorite artist

Let’s goo I have been anticipating a vid!

yo may I ask what your process for making these videos is? I'm trying to make lyric videos and really like the style of your videos. like, how do you decide what images to use, which font for the subtitles and type of transitions?

You're ma man. Glad to see a new video here :D

Thank you for making this channel.

After decades of being a fan it still often amazes me how intelligent he is.

"The will to death" and "Inside of Emptiness" are two of my favorite albums of all time.

I never connected those lyrics so directly to era's of his life. I knew it was about some enlightenment experience(s). But I guess it makes sense this way.

The research is top tier! What if this channel was like trickfinger, where it’s actually just John explaining himself under a guise lol

Great content, thanks for sharing

great video looking foward to seeing more of it:)

Nice vid

love your content and want you to make more

Im so grateful to have found your channel and your videos. When i found johns music+philosopies i was very very isolated. I didnt think there were many others out there who lit up like i did when listening to this stuff. A lot of people are fans of his music or rhcp but they write off his writing and his philosophies. Not many people can open up to understanding (or trying to understand) these notions. Its beautiful to see and hear of everyone in the comments and you with this video, truly analysing and leaning into what he's been saying. He's my biggest inspiration. Listening to him and his music, hearing his life story and his thoughts, on many levels, saved me. So much love and appreciation to you and everyone in the comments. ❤

Really cool, these kind of videos really fit with John's music

Great. really Good

WWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO new video and on friday :O F Yeah :D Funnywise The Will to Death has been in my Top 3 of John Albums. When Iwas listening for the 1st times it was a good album of course, but I didn't saw the deep meaning or concept of the record. Today this is a more happier record in many cases which is a completly different tone in comparison to the empyrean or shadows coolide or to record :) Luv the Video :D

Remember exactly where I was first time I heard this album. AMAZING album. The whole 6 albums in 6 months was incredible.

this video is beautiful I never wondered how deep JF words would mean so much in my life today and you portrayed it nicely

Excellent video. Where did you find the interview footage around the 11:50 mark? I've never seen that interview clip before.

There's so much to unpack, loved watching this.

3:53 where's that background from?

great research. Much like a lot of us, John has been my favorite musician since circa 1993 but especially since 2002.

If not a concept album, I believe "Far Away" refers to his girlfriend at the time Mila, who treated him poorly towards the back end of their relationship as she saw him first as someone who she wanted to see, and over time only wanted him to be that person she saw at the start. Hence, "I cant pretend to be who im not/There are things you need from me I havent got". Ending it with "only one way for things to be between you and me" signifying the hurtful end of the relationship.

If there is any part of this video that you would like extra explanation, please comment below and I will try to clarify or give extra context. Thanks for watching!

I damn love these Videos. Also their philisophical, psychological explaination here. Well done Mister :D

"It's against my religion to talk about my religion." - John Frusciante (my favorite quote of his)

Cool videos bro I love learning more about John! Thanks

everyone will have there own theories on little things, stick with the bigger sections of the whole.

Very well done!
