Just goes to show how good Frusciante is, that the person trying to teach people how to play the song still can’t play it right

[@sanyavanya]

I promise you, the reason I didn’t play it right is because I was too lazy to record enough takes. I wanted to make a video as quickly as possible and shot our best performing short so far. Frusciante is great, of course.

[@VintageSlide]

@@sanyavanya lol kinda sad to make lazy content and admit that it aint good because your lazy.

[@hallio111]

@@sanyavanya yeah but it still shows that you can't just play it right on the spot without trying a few times. the muting is just not that easy with this riff.

[@camdenmarian3627]

I mean it's really not that great of a technique to credit to frusciante. It's a sloppy technique for real. But a technique none the less. And definitely not his best work. The riff itself even without the muted strings is more a testament to his skill then just playing the riff with all his muted strings.

[@sanyavanya]

@@hallio111I’m a scam

[@purpleshards4853]

Bro got drunk in the last 2 seconds

[@dooloo2521]

I learned to do this by learning SRV songs lol

[@thegoodone2770]

same here.

[@KY.0009]

Same!

[@saxguitarmusic6260]

Same!

[@idk9637]

Same. Couldn't stand the weather really forced me to get muting down. A lot harder to accurately mute the strings in it than in pride and joy which was a lot more forgiving.

[@saxguitarmusic6260]

it gives u much control on rhythm guitar and ghost notes

[@capybara_4_sale545]

Imma tell my guitar teacher to teach me how to play riffs like this.

[@barsultra]

red hit chili peppers and nirvana great for beggier to interdermidiate level

[@rokirambo648]

This is perfect example why at the beginning good teacher is gold!

[@nikkijay8389]

they are my favourite band

[@alang4902]

IMO its way easier to just mute all the strings with your 1st finger and play the notes with the other 3 fingers. If you're struggling with this give it a try, i play it that way and it sounds perfect, think of it like playing a barre chord with a delicate index finger

[@tamircohen1512]

I agree

[@diegoavalos5616]

You can do that, but it's not the way Fruciante play it

[@alang4902]

@@diegoavalos5616 its not but it sounds identical, and music is all about how it sounds not what you're doing, something I learned from john

[@frajer9555]

I do the stupudest thing that i like the most cause it gives me more control. I do the fruscante thumb instead of the full barre and during the second part where he plays open D i play the D on the low E string 10nth fret I am also sorry for the spelling i am FAR from being a native english speaker

[@lizardking-1312]

​@@frajer9555al si negdje s Balkana? malo se mučimo s peppersima, ha? nakon dvije godine, još uvijek ne mogu potpuno točno odsvirati can't stop. osobito dio gdje prelazi iz C na 6 žici u Bmaj7 na prve četiri, prije refrena

[@Andri_Gilang]

For this song, Red Hot Chili Peppers vocalist Anthony Kiedis, wrote the lyrics, to match the music. The words are a rather random collection of thoughts, with some creative rhymes thrown in to match the rhythm of the song. However, if we observe carefully, the song Can't Stop seems to be telling about the vocalist (Anthony Kieds) who can't stop (Can't Stop) from all his bad habits. He is addicted to rah-rah, addicted to parties, addicted to women. -women, addicted to cigarettes and so on.

[@marc8239]

Honestly can’t stop is one of these songs where it’s not about just playing after a tutorial, you have to learn the basic notes and the find a way by yourself to make it sound great. Or you are a genius and play after ear.

[@majeran2280]

It's not as easy as it looks, it takes a few hours to master it, I spent a while on it but I must admit that this exercise gave me a lot of skills for my solos, including freatboard control, I recommend it ❤

A good version well done

Beautiful guitar

Thank you! This is awesome!

Amazing riff

When the guitar teacher fucks up, then posts the video

[@Hello_there_obi]

Yup lol

[@salvatorevetro1743]

The art of sloppliness that me, Page and Frusciante have totally mastered.

[@rileygregson8644]

I really would like to play this song for my family

[@joseluisluis3987]

Lo haces ver tan fácil estimado. Good job!

[@philokytto3217]

Great!

[@nootypenguino]

Very important part. Thank you

[@yorudan91]

Both sounded good

[@joshplant]

It drives me absolutely insane seeing people just neatly picking the notes. It's a lifeless soulless version of such an amazing song

[@ufukkaplan6701]

Great tip Thanks man 👍

[@JayMathy]

This guy is the Ben Finegold of guitar. Brutally honest , sarcastic, but knowledgeable.

[@fiddley8894]

close enough

[@GiGi1217]

Dann, 1st time in my life I actually understood his teachin music. Gotta start somewhere.

[@lslewis]

Some old-school cats would definitely call this "a feel thing".

[@user-om5jq6lg5m]

If you listen to the recorded version frusiante actually messes up the riff a few times but keeps it in

[@Colorremixer]

Damm that's good

[@andreashabeck1155]

Damn, this is brilliant

[@alisurya__]

Damn, Is great dude🤘🤘

[@artworksband]

Thanks 😌

[@faizanazam1373]

i though your channel is full of tutorials but it's not which I was looking for but still thanks for this tutorial.

[@artworksband]

We're gonna make more tutorials, you can make suggestions and ask questions here if you want to influence the content on this channel.

[@johnanthonymotherfckingfru8085]

Gotta switch to that bridge pickup!! Nice video tho

[@sanyavanya]

Thanks! The thing is I don’t feel very comfortable playing RHCP through the humbucker :)

[@johnanthonymotherfckingfru8085]

@@sanyavanya Didn't notice that at first haha. Good stuff!!

[@Andy-1234]

This dudes right. So many guys just pick the notes. John F would be pleased.

[@nolanstout23]

Need to use bridge pickup too

[@bricksnapper7436]

I have a problem where no matter what I do my muted strings make a weird sound

[@rezy1]

hardest riff

[@st4rzycki]

Me looking for the whole video at the LEDs of the microphone.

[@giacomofeliziani1705]

bridge pickup broooo

[@steveblowjbs420]

damn, looks pretty hard

[@jefferydavis3332]

That thumb!!!

[@daniels247]

i never realised how much people could be playing this and this is my favourite song

[@Falmoni31]

it plays can't stop on the neck pickup

[@GrahmDahleSelfMade]

that’s actually really hard

[@shaggyguitar]

I am currently practicing this song, but it has been difficult for me to achieve the technique

[@dragus-it4732]

Strumming mute strings is the hardest part

[@bottleofskooma]

why this guy look like the light heavy weight champion of the world

[@siraj_a.r.411]

It's so easy to mute strings when playing a bar chord. But it's so hard when you actually want to lol

[@scottpeters9911]

I tried that.., kept switching my 5way.., John Fruciante plays standing & positions his strum hand close to the bridge so that’s not a thing for him or me anymore..,

[@burnbibles3813]

It's called a mute and in tablature you mark all of the "dead" strings with and x

[@nd7883]

Make sure 5 out of six strings are muted Proceeds to butcher it

[@snuck8987]

pickup the brigde 👀

[@noahlzxd]

one reason why sheet music is superior

[@gustavovergara646]

How you mute the D string? The only note I struggle

[@Guitarism24x7]

😫🙏🙏💓 bless my tomorrow s chemistry

[@daniellewis2609]

I love your guitar what is the colour you have?

Something like metallic turquoise, I guess.

BEHS FOREVER BABY

[@coco_rthritis6462]

And thus, funk guitar technique was born

[@pla70n38]

But this song should be played on bridge single

[@remcovanhartevelt588]

Never tried to but no want to.

[@tomh7067]

Seems easy but this riff is incredibly difficult to master

[@martk647]

Typical Fruciante stuff.

[@levichannel16]

my finger is too short 😂

[@murasaki-sama]

Btw, what is this technique called? I see it a lot but I never hear a name

[@sanyavanya]

I think that hitting muted strings is called “Chicken Scratching”.

[@johnnypark4104]

I thought that was a given after listening to this song once

[@sesomarjesusmfkr8168]

Fe

[@dougmallory2600]

i think you missed a couple pickups

[@Hello_there_obi]

Almost but never stop strumming. Also why on earth are you using the neck pickup?

[@artworksband]

Don’t tell anyone, but I don’t know shit about RHCP.

[@DANOZXZ]

Pues te sale regular

[@pauliebass85]

Or grab a bass and slaaaaaaap away 😉

[@boochanf2]

Can't mute

[@fve1352]

And if you still have the feeling that something is missing after following all his tips …. Use a Tele

[@c0unterac342]

I strictly play tele 99% of the time but even I'm smart enough to recognize that RHCP sounds best on a strat

[@fve1352]

@@c0unterac342 then why aren’t you smart enough to figure out that Frusciante plays this song on a Tele??? Like almost all of the by the way songs? This song only works on a Tele. If you would have an ear for sound you would have recognized it in a heartbeat….

[@sanyavanya]

@@c0unterac342 I totally agree.

@@sanyavanya I consider myself a Strat player for 15 years now. But a Tele song is a Tele song… And RHCP is 40% Tele. I don’t know why this is an issue for someone people.

Funny thing the dude is trying to teach it without even doing it properly, with all due respect and reckoning frusciante is a sacred monster

[@braydenboyko8525]

Not quite bud

[@alexarroyo8067]

yea but how do you do it, what's the technique, that's the problem with these teachers , they don't want to give up the secrets 🤔

[@artworksband]

It’s kinda hard to fit the answer in a one-minute video 🙃

[@scarv7544]

There really isnt a specific technique. As long as you mute every string except the one you want to hit youre good. Some people will use different fingerings and different styles to mute, but whatevers comfortable for you

[@MdhLV]

He can't even play it right and he's the teacher

[@arpadpinter6050]

What is wrong with that strat 😭😭😭

[@dannyharrisonn_]

Omg get off that neck pickup 😅

[@Hello_there_obi]

I know right! It’s clearly bridge 😂 that should be the first thing you sort out to get this sounding right

[@orloification]

That was dismal

[@SevAnsdigg-123]

Well explained but badly executed.

[@roberttsikalas2078]

He’s right but his imitation of the technique and the chord at the end is TERRIBLE 🤣

[@o0Donuts0o]

Your guitar has to be out of tune to play this riff correctly.

[@_jaroslav]

🤮🤮🤮

[@loga6903]

You can't even play it

[@youtubearepussys7530]

I can play the rift and sing the song perfectly.

[@dulesavic5450]

Maybe you should learn to play before teaching people how to play, no?
