I wonder if this guy knows he created one of the best pieces of music of all time. I’m not lying, as a guitar player I always come back to this video over and over, it is maddeningly beautiful and for real changed the course of my life.
Yeah I watched the first half already completely impressed by how he crafted the structure and each different nuance of the riffs, but then when he went into his sort of mellow breakdown and crescendo, I felt like I was watching and hearing an unknown masterpiece that more people should hear. I'm gonna share the shit out of this video

The awkward scramble to turn the camera on, the playing on his knees in a jeans and t-shirt, and then the awkward scramble to turn the camera off. The low-ish video quality. The incredible, awe-inspiring guitar playing. Really brings me back to a simpler time. This is beautiful and nostalgic. First time I’ve heard this riff and it and the accompanying riffs, licks, and soloes were executed beautifully. This man is a one-man band, playing drums, bass, rhythm guitar, and lead guitar all at the same time all through a single guitar. Super well-executed. I wonder if afterwards, he had that “damn, I am so fucking good at guitar” feeling we have from time to time. I wonder if this was his fifth take. His tenth take? So beautiful.
This is what every musician should aim for. Loving an artist or a song and learning their songs is not just about imitating them note by note, but really understanding the emotion and the musical enviroment intended on every tune, and add a little bit from yourself on It so it becomes something totally new. Amazing cover!
This is a flipping masterpiece, it's like a recorded human lifetime written as music. The pure ecstasy of the chorus, the mystery and excitement of the little bridges, the familiarity and simplicity of the three chord pattern, but the way it turns sombre towards the end, each note strikes a different emotion in one's heart, the fear, the sadness, the desperation. That feeling of longing for more, the emptiness, the void, the pain... and even the final chord at the end. The way it's played. That sound. I imagine that sound is what heaven sounds like
00:37 riff is pretty incredible man. Fits perfectly and as a guitarist I can honestly say this is one of the best riff/song/FAM that I've heard in such a long time. Thanks man and may the guitar gods shine down upon you. Peace and love.
I totally agree! John Frusciante makes such good riffs that even when other people play it it sounds just as good. That riff is a John Frusciante riff that he plays in his original video. So awesome!
@@nateguitar4907 technically it's not playing by ear because you have the reference of the strings and fretz. If you were to have audio only like on the radio then it would be learning to play by ear. This way is quite a bit easier.
I watched this video like thousand times back in 2011 (8 years ago). Now here I am, just as amazed as I was back then. Miss everything about discovering Frusciante’s world. Congratulations man, you are just one good mortal playing inmortal things.
For real. Serious talent learning the song in the first place, not mention absolutely fucking nailing it and going so far as to begin making it his own at the end there.
@@MrAllallalla he's saying that because in the original video, John Frusciante put his cigarette that he was smoking on the headstock and started playing.
I’ve watched this so many times. And just thought I should pay respect by leaving a comment and telling you how much I love this version. This shit speaks to my soul. And I’m learning as I write this. Thanks brotha for your contribution to the sonic airwaves we all share. This sir, is legendary in my eyes.
This really is so good dude. You captured the Froosh/Hendrix "blues with hope"sound like this tune and little wing has. Props to you man, not very many people, even expert players, can recreate this feeling the way you did. Good job man!
Prisms Edits Supposedly he didn't. From what iv been told (may be incorrect) its how he set his amps up ect but I have no idea how he did it if he indeed did.
i've probably commented on this vid before, a long time ago, but i just can't get over how freakin sweet the sound is coming out of that amp man!!!! such a beautiful tone, and i love what u have done with the little lick. too good
Revisiting this after a couple of years, still absolutely stunning and a credit to Frusciante. Well done.. If I can ever play half as well as this I will consider myself a half decent guitarist.
I saved your video on muy Favourites list like 5 or 6 years ago when I started playing guitar. Today I still watching it like: "God damn, it's so accurate and so gorgeus!", just an inspiration to me (like John). Just a piece of art. Thank you for sharing this to us this is a motivation for me.
Why do I love this so much, its been in my head for days, goes to show John frusciante has very amazing memorable guitar riffs, so emotional, I'm gonna learn this, beautiful!
This is great playing. You definitely capture the Frusciante vibe even with your own improv thrown in. Whoever the 9 people are that disliked this are obviously jealous of your ability. Fantastic Job!
I forgot this video existed and I forgot how much I love this. I really don't know what it makes me feel like but I... am being touched! I want to be able to play this.
Dude this is so incredible and definitely one of my very favorite guitar jams😍 The second part where you improvise is so out of this world and so beautiful🤩 THANK YOU☀️
Brah. Brah! This is incredible. I didn't want it to end. TH-cam is full of great performances by great guitarists but this here is special. Whoever you are and wherever you are 11 years later I hope you're still playing that axe, still channeling the life force through it, still singing your song. Life-affirming stuff.
man this is pretty awesome. I've been watching this vid whenever i feel bogged down with guitar playing. This cover kinda brings the fire back to keep playing. Been watching this cover carefully trying to figure out what youre doing. Pretty amazing stuff
Def. One of my fave clips on youtube. My son has had a go at this on bedroom lick on orange micro crush . We are massive frusciante fans . Keep posting these inspiring clips.
You're awesome dude! I've been a long time lurker and I just wanted to let you know that I love all of your videos. Thanks for showing your love for Frusciante/Hendrix, it's giving me loads of inspiration to do the same.
this is frusciante pure style, im improving and i watch this each 6 months and i learn something new each time. Amazing and beautiful final jam. wanna now first chord with the vibrato, can't doit!
This will live on forever. Years later I still come back to this cover. You dis to that bedroom lick what Jimi did to all along the watchtower from Bob Dylan
sorry for this question.. I was wondering if you covered exactly John's song or did you improvise? 'Cause I never heared more than 15 seconds of John playing it.. Thanks
Now that's someone who knows how to finger. ...Notes. I'm talking about music here. Seriously, awesome job. You made hard, sweaty love to that guitar and the result is nothing less than the smoothest of youtube clips I've heard. Currently listening to this on loop and I can't stop won't stop!
Just found your channel a few days ago and I am so glad I did. You are such a good guitarist, probably one of the best I've seen on youtube. Just curious, what kind of amp and pedals do you use to get your fruciante tone?
Bro imagine now that fru is back with the peppers, he finishes this lick and they build a song around it
It needs to be finished
I think its pretty similar to knock me down
@@colin1891 its the same bass notes yes, but the stuff he could do with his guitar doing a less rocky version, would no doubt be magical.
I’m gonna finish it, or at least try. Die hard fan
Isnt the bedroom lick in the post-chorus of Knock Me Down?
Getting close to a decade and I still come back to this once in a while, one of my favourite guitar pieces ever
Same. Used to follow this guy religiously when I was learning guitar.

here I go again...
Pussio
When I clicked this video I expected some kid repeating a few RHCP licks but this was beautiful, amazing job man.
+TreSneaky lol thanks alot
for anyone who has never experienced true love it can be found at 0:36 to 0:47

Agreed
You might like Bonny Doon
Accurate
it can also be found at 0:00 to 5:00
finally frusc, you finished it after 20 odd years... now show your face

I think “blues with hope” is the best way I have ever heard to describe this sound.
@@victormeyvis4767 same
Damn man, "blues with hope"
Guy must be running 3 compressors to get that kind of pick attack with little gain!
Unbelievable skills non the less.
translate that into English for me please...
Probably just little gain or overdrive,if he's using a pedal, or he just turned down that volume knob. :P
So it's a compressor that makes this kind dry attack sound ? Did john use one on bssm ?
Prisms Edits Supposedly he didn't. From what iv been told (may be incorrect) its how he set his amps up ect but I have no idea how he did it if he indeed did.
0:00 -> 5:17 how do you play this part
Luke Wren lol
With a guitar
Ideally by using your hands, but that's not 100% necessary
Luke Wren this Video may help: th-cam.com/video/ET8OfqQQnzc/w-d-xo.html
Sam Sketches lmao
he even sits like him
dont give him too much credit anybody can get on their knees. no but yea this guy is so fucking good
Black Person yes m8 lol
Pretty sure that was a deliberate move to imitate
I know planning your own funeral at 13 is wrong, but this is gonna play right after they burried me.
You good fam
I've seen this cover 100+ times and each time I've been mesmerised completely, I need the tab for this man 🙏🙏
fr we do need the tabs
Nikola gugoski has half of the original part but not the last bit
@@zacpowers86 I actually learned the first part already, but I want to learn the second part so badly
dude do you know how incredible this arrangement is? I can't stop coming back
I’ve cried to this video. I’ve been coming back to watching this since middle school. I am 23 now and still amazed with this.
The second half he really did something magical
i've probably commented on this vid before, a long time ago, but i just can't get over how freakin sweet the sound is coming out of that amp man!!!! such a beautiful tone, and i love what u have done with the little lick. too good
Так качественно играет, это можно слушать бесконечно!
The sound of your guitar radiates and has a hollow feel to it...awesome dude
Revisiting this after a couple of years, still absolutely stunning and a credit to Frusciante. Well done.. If I can ever play half as well as this I will consider myself a half decent guitarist.
goosebumps..
Frusciante really knew how to nod at Hendrix without straight up copying his style.
Well said!
I think, you can hear some 90s hip hop rhythm in it. Actually in all of RHCP’s work, even Anthony’s rapping. It’s there as a backdrop

The second part where you improvise is so out of this world and so beautiful🤩
THANK YOU☀️
You took a piece by Frusciante and added your own soul and feeling to it, and it sounds wonderful. Awesome playing man, keep it up
This is such a special lick. It's emotional and honest.
gotta love how complete this sounds even without a bass and drums. beautiful
best tone I've ever heard for this song !! and playing ofc!
Love the way you harmonized those major chords.
This makes me cry everytime I hear it. Its absolute essence of frusciante with your own life essence flowing through the fretboard

This blew me away. At some parts I was wondering if there were more than one guitar playing...and that ATTACK!
i really love the part from 0:00 - 5:17

frusciante must watch this

I might be 9 years late. But you can still FEEL every bit of this.

Beautiful emotions in this piece. All the highs and lows and everything else in between seems to meld together so perfectly.
This is amazing thank you for finishing the song, you totally did it justice :D
who needs guitar straps, knobs, tremolo arms or chairs anyway
this was fucking fire
Jeez, don't think I've ever hear anything that's better than that on the guitar. Ever. Fantastic man.
That improvisation, man. So much soul and emotion, absolutely love it.

so fresh and so clean

Man oh man. This expanded version with your original creative is so mesmerizing! I need a re-master version and a tab 😅😅!
a tab for this would be amazing, but all i can find so far is a tab just going off of this video on youtube, it still sounds great though nonetheless
Just use your ears, guys. It's not that difficult to figure it out, that's what makes you improve.
Damn your guitar sounds like a freakin' shotgun :D :o love it!
This video is awesome! I love what you've done with the track! In fact so much so that I recorded my own loop version with a solo. Thank you again!
