The way Perry sings this song, guts me. It's as if he is directly channeling the soul/s of those who endure a specific type forlorn loneliness.

He will not stop there, for he will move at a pace which will astonish many and he will negotiate peace agreements in many war-torn nations.“ "He will impress everyone with his knowledge of all things sacred.

Flea was never a member of the band, he just did this tour, and played on a couple of tracks they recorded for Kettle Whistle.

My brother I'm so sorry about the passing of your brother.. As a recovering addict I know the pain of addiction and the loss of loved ones..Please use your brothers passing as fuel to spread the message about addiction. Addiction doesn't discriminate nor does death have mercy .. ...I know you didn't ask for it,but the torch was passed to you .. Use your voice...

Although this song is about a woman, I lost my brother to heroine addiction and so many of these lyrics resonate with my experience trying to get him to get clean. It’s makes me so sad and yet I keep coming back.

I met Perry at a Prince concert at the key club back in Nov of 98' cool bro. I had just read that day in Rolling Stone magazine that he had just gotten clean and returned from Tibet. So I gave him a hug and congratulated him on that new journey. pretty unreal. And the Prince show? Amazing 👏

[@HernandoMestre]

This song is unbelievable, it makes me feel about people`s lives, about their feelings, abour their day to day believings, it`s a bit overwhelming, yet precious.

[@mackeydirk8643]

Jane's Addiction is one of the greatest bands of alternative music. Back before it got played out in the 90s. Nothing's Shocking and Ritual are seminal albums of the genre. Wish they could of had more albums over the 3 decades yet am happy to have these 2 truly epic albums from the original lineup.

[@evanmoore8578]

I caught Jane's Addiction live in NOLA over ten years ago. They closed with this song and it was so incredibly beautiful on the ears. One of my best concert experiences.

[@joseofno]

[@freejubilant38]

Janes Addiction is one of the best bands to ever hit earth.

[@Iglobalhead]

I have no idea why this is one of my favourite songs of all time. Its two chords. Steel drums (????wtf) acoustic guitars no electrics or solos. Repetitive (although I like techno). But I always shout she cant hit lol. Perrys voice is sublime, absolutely spot on. I was a student when this came out and went to plenty of alternative clubs and gigs but only heard it years later. But I hadn't - it hit a massive note of nostagia. It was a forgotten song. I must have heard it over and over but not remembered in those drunken hazy days. I caught my daughter (18) playing it to one of her mates recently - proud dad moment. Sometimes I play it on repeat for hours :) - love the live versions also better. A fuc*ing brilliant amazing song

[@ricolegend5134]

I could of written exactly the same thing 🤣🤣

[@iavv334]

@-RoyBatty- I think on top of the groove though is a very interesting melody line that grabs your attention, and the reverb affect he has on his vocal affectations just add to that ear-catching quality that Perry has in this.

I’m so sorry to hear that. David Paulides keeps putting out FACTS about fentanyl being laced in other street drugs that have been accidently overdosing many pol between 20-45 years old! It might have been an accident. It’s coming in from the border. They are dropping dollars on the ground, laced with fentanyl so they are saying not to pick them up because all it takes is 2ml to kill someone. I pray for the victims! May you be well!🙏
