I cant grasp this.. How dofficult is this?! And he looks so efortless when playing.. I can´t even imagine.. The guitar sounds like two guitras. And he fucking sings into this? seriously, what the fuck
Just before this video on the song before, he says Joy Division are his favourite band, and just after he starts, he says ''Theyre also the reason i pull my pants up high'' due to Ian Curtis always wearing his quite high. John Frusciante, i always cursed people for covering Joy Division, but you mean every word you sing, and its a perfect tribute and rendition. Simply beautiful.
Robbie Smith John practiced 18 hours a day for years and years, have you put in that dedication? If not then no shit you won't be lol. It's like being mad about not being as good as Messi at soccer but you've never played soccer before. Just kinda stupid lol. Practice practice and you might just be one day
As it should ... things are not truly about neverending romance and beautiful sunsets . Shame he´s done a Kg of blow in this and reflects in the song ... the rot is nowhere near as pronouced as in the original ...
To be breviloquent ... Yep! ... on both accounts. Got to see JF in 89 I think, naked with tube socks days just after the OG guitarist, in some hole in the wall in B-more called Godfrey's. Man, it was a shit hole, with a leaky roof that'd zap the power, but I saw some great bands there. You might dig this ... my art and photography, with clearly newly learned video editing skills, but it was the 40th anniversary of Ian's passing. Couldn't really believe I made it that far, so it's mixed bag of lament AND relief ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ th-cam.com/video/dIGOezDHakc/w-d-xo.html Much love!!! ✌ ϻя.ƹ
Peter Hook tells a really cool story in an interview with The Guardian (a British newspaper) about being on tour with Moby and him asking Peter and Bernard to play New Dawn Fades with him. They told him they couldn't remember it and Moby got the Red Hot Chili Peppers (presumably Flea and John) to teach Peter and Bernard how to play it again!
It takes a lot to pull off that iconic bass riff with a guitar but this is how you do it ❤ RIP Ian Curtis, thank you for the comfort you’ve brought to those is us suffering even though it’s been decades since you left us ❤
He learned all sex pistols song on the acoustic when he was young, to show parents that he's passionate about music, and they bought him electric guitar
Caleb Johnston. At sections he is playing both the rhythm and lead parts simultaneously that Bernard Sumner played on two separate tracks on the recording. When JD played the song live, Bernard would play the leads in their specific sections of the song and then switch back to chords/strumming sounds during the singing(he kind of varies between them). You're absolutely correct that the body of the song is quite simple, but to play the two parts as an folk arrangement for one guitarist is a bit trickier overall. John did a good job with the arrangement actually.
On my birthday. I was not aware of Joy Division till I heard them 6 years later. I do remember the album cover of UNKNOWN PLEASURES being displayed prominently for many years prior to hearing it.
@@virginiaknighten4687 Ian Curtis was the lead singer of the British band Joy Division who sadly took his own life in 1980. This is a cover of their song, depending on where you’re from you may have heard their most popular song - ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart’ If not, I’d absolutely recommend you look at their 2 albums: ‘Unknown Pleasures’ and ‘Closer’. There’s some absolute gems on both of those records!
@@rucky1419 thank you for your response...I definitely will check them out. I only heard of the RHCP about 2 months ago. And John has really moved me to no end. I’ll be 72 tomorrow but it is never too late in life to discover new music. TH-cam has opened up a brand new world for me! Take care and I’ll listen soon.
Got here because I was listening to the John Frusciante cover songs compilation without the video. By the time it hit the chorus or something, thought it was not one guitar playing right? So I'm here now and confirmed once again why he's my favorite guitar player of all time ❤❤❤
I love how at the end he says "This is a sad song from my new record... It comes out tomorrow, I think", like he doesn't really give a shit about it coming out.
Every time I see this concert I feel like cutting my head off and bury it under the ground. I can't believe it. It's the best show ever. Fuck. I wanna be there. I love you, John.
Yess, ever since i saw him doing this version of joy division in vienna, I wanted to hear it again, and here it is. Great!!! Coool version in Amsterdam.
This means so much to me man, possibly my two greatest musical loves and inspirations coming together here on a song that already holds meaning to me. "A loaded gun won't set you free - So you say"
Aahw, man, I really love john, what a cover! he puts so much soul in his songs and covers. I did an instrumental cover on the acoustic, but not nearly as good as his version ofcourse :-P
If you're on the river Styx, on your way to Hades, this is what you hear blasting through the speakers of the Ferryman his soundsysteem, just to remind you that everything is transient - especialy..... yourself
Beautiful cover of an amazing song! but more importantly... played the guitar solo, bass line AND sang simultaneously!!!! Amazing!
i didn't expect less from him.
Amazing

Your comment is beautiful. Love and Respect.
John is fucking incredible. He's playing the rhythm guitar, lead guitar, and bass all at once
↖️He is. Absolute untouchable! 🎸™️👌🏻
Seems sloppy to most people but when you see what he is trying to do all at once. Wow....
Playing two melodies at once and singing... insane.
Welcome to heroine. It opens new achievments.
@@alferdjuhimovich9037welcome to countless hours of practicing and studying music
He listned to the song
He understood the lyrics
He somehow could relate to Ian’s pain
That’s what makes this beautiful
Yes you"re spot on - it's like he's inhabiting the song
Taher Boujneh you’re right man. That’s gotta be it. You can tell he put in so much into making this cover as good as he could. Above and beyond.
Word man: I hate when anyone play a Joy Division cover, anyone but him.
I almost heard what you wrote in the rithm of the song
"He heard the song
He got the lyrics
He could relate
To Ian's pain"
When Im feeling down I listen to this. It makes it worse
and them I listen to the original. and crumble into a void of nothigness
Daniel Espinal don't feed your pain body. He can only grow by your attention. Feel your surroundings and the music instead
Likewise, when I listen to this song, I realise ill never be as good at guitar as frusciante so I get worse
Robbie Smith John practiced 18 hours a day for years and years, have you put in that dedication? If not then no shit you won't be lol.

This remains one of my favorite covers of one of my favorite songs. Also it is a clear indication of just how brilliant John Frusciante is.
Without a doubt Brother
Joy Division one of the greatest bands of all time but Johnny's cover is amazing he can capture all the sounds without having a band behind him
And it's on the acoustic guitar! They say it right, it's not the guitar that plays, but the fingers and the mind of the performer.

He's unique, he transmits so much passion through his voice and his guitar, his music is always so powerful
That's why john is the Greatest.
I would have lost my mind, if I'd seen this live.
Out of body experience. For sure.
How wonderful that this was performed and recorded at Paradiso in Amsterdam, 22 years after Joy Division played it in the same venue.
22 years? Ian has been dead for over 40 years wtf are you talking about

ΤOP 10 GUITARISTS...FRUSCIANTE IN POP ROCK HISTORY.! ALWAYS NEW TECHNIQUES WITH HIS IRON FINGERS!
Passionate cover of the greatest Joy Division song
Mon guitariste préféré qui joue une des plus belles œuvres de mon groupe préféré. Et en plus avec émotion. Merci John
OMG, sitting here in awe with goosebumps, what an insanely touching cover! Beautiful, he puts so much heart & soul into it! ♥
It takes a lot to pull off that iconic bass riff with a guitar but this is how you do it ❤
RIP Ian Curtis, thank you for the comfort you’ve brought to those is us suffering even though it’s been decades since you left us ❤
Holy shit, John is so fucking good. He single-handedly played the rhythm and the melody on the guitar and sung it perfectly. What an amazing cover.
the last part just made me cry, you are the best john
cant believe he played such a difficult song with an acoustic (and sang)
Ronen Ben well he is frusciante after all
He learned all sex pistols song on the acoustic when he was young, to show parents that he's passionate about music, and they bought him electric guitar
I think im a decent guitarist then i watch this and feel incompetent as fuck lol
It's not very difficult to play. There's a tab on ultimate guitar. Pretty simple but sounds fucking awesome.

favourite guitarist covering my favourite band.
Best interpretation I'v ever heard.
40 years today since Ian’s passing,
John did him proud with this masterful cover.

Still amazing in 2020! Hail The king
Always cool to see such an iconic British song enjoyed by our American friends.
Thank you Ian Curtis!
omg how could this be even better...
I'm a fan of Joy Division and of Frusciante, but hadn't known of this cover. Fucking incredible.
Outstandingly amazing - he became Joy Division
Oh my god HOW COME I HAVE NEVER HEARD THIS BEFORE?
Just heard it today. Magnificent.
John. One of my favorite guitarists. This is a great live with lots of emotional feelings. Him and His guitar.. that's it.
Damn!!! So Beautiful!!
Thank you!! Very kind!!

Wow. What a brilliant cover. Kudos to John. Great musician
лучший кавер, что я слышал. единственный, кто смог понять. браво, Джон.
Охуенное исполнение
@@sergsokol846 pega um violão e tenta fazer o que ele fez nessa música, cara ele faz milagre apenas com um violão na mão.
Лучший басовый кавер на акустической гитаре.)
Probably the best version of New Dawn Fades around. Frusciante is a amazing!
The way he plays with such tenacity bet he could strum an accoustic louder and faster than a lot of musicians then and now probably
Blimey... That was impressive.
this is awesome. i love him and his music. he's just such an inspiration to my life.
Great cover and tribute ,maybe the best I've heard..
I love how at the end he says "This is a sad song from my new record... It comes out tomorrow, I think", like he doesn't really give a shit about it coming out.
Angel on Earth. He thanks 'us' after his performances... we thank you, John.
thats an awesome song... I just love the way John beats his guitar up while he's playing. He's awesome, peace.
One of the best covers Ive seen in a while
john frusciante is the reason i know and LOVE joy division. thanks for this and so much more, john!
I usually don't like covers, but this is really good. I especially like how Frusciante was able to combine the bass and guitar lines.
one of my favourite covers by John, i love it
Oh.
My.
God.
Grande artista, digno de expressar esta melancolia!
This one is brilliant!! :-) :-) :-)
Every time I see this concert I feel like cutting my head off and bury it under the ground.
I can't believe it.
It's the best show ever.
Fuck.
I wanna be there.
I love you, John.
My fav Joy Division song by one of the best guitarist ever!
Yess, ever since i saw him doing this version of joy division in vienna, I wanted to hear it again, and here it is. Great!!! Coool version in Amsterdam.
oh my gosh, he is so fucking amazing guy i ever hear
He even asks them to turn it up at the beginning like Ian did with this song. Crazy
Siempre manifestó su admiración por Joy Division. Emocionante e intensa cover. Este tema John lo canta más que con la voz, con el alma. Grande.
Top notch musician with impeccable taste in music
This is my favorite from Ian - now thank you John!
How the hell does he even play it this way? Amazing.
Seriously. If all that sound is coming from that one guitar, I don't know what to say.
Ok, that was sick!!
It makes it even more haunting that JD played at Paradiso and made the most gut wrenching version.
I usually don’t care for covers of Joy Division but this is amazing
Holy shit, I never realized that John was this fucking awesome as if I had any reason for doubt
This means so much to me man, possibly my two greatest musical loves and inspirations coming together here on a song that already holds meaning to me.
"A loaded gun won't set you free - So you say"
My favorite music of the Unknown Pleasures!
AHHH im going to learn this right now. it would be so nice to play the bass and the riff together. john frusciante is the man
2021 and still the best cover.
Awesome!!!!! Frusciante is the best...
Господи как я счастлив что услышал это))))!!!
Only cover I can feel, others just don't feel right.
Love it!! this dude has been through a lot!!
One of the best covers of Joy Division, I always listen it...
I m shocked , I m devastated ,I m loved
and I cant sleep
Can tell John loves Joy Division :)
Perfect Performance, New Dawn Fades of Joy Division, Greetings from Brazil ! Watching in December of 2020
I saw God and he plays Acoustic
Frusciante really exists...
Man I totally forgot about his cover of this song. My heart is melting hearing it again after so many years.
This is good. VERY good! Woulda liked to have seen Peppers play this with the full band
Frusciante is a god of music
Fantastic mate
Ik zou de tijd 10 jaar terug willen draaien alleen om naar dit concert te kunnen!
Wonderful!! Much Love to you!!!Thank you so much!!!
Aahw, man, I really love john, what a cover! he puts so much soul in his songs and covers. I did an instrumental cover on the acoustic, but not nearly as good as his version ofcourse :-P
so great guitar work john and soning of course ;)
Holy shit, he's amazing
The best guitarist in the Gegenwart!
Amazing Cover
This is simply excellent!
