***** Don't say that man. I'm sure someone carry you in his/her heart, and if you just feel lonely, remember that even in lonelyness you're never alone. Love.
Man I love Frusciante's comment section. It's so damn real, so full pf feelings. I like to read about you're lives, the experiences, the sadness, the memories, the loneliness. But also the joy, the love for the music. It's so crazy to think about all that people feeling the same way you feel in this moment.
I really think that we are all imposters compared to Jimi. He lived in a time of oppression for being born black. You can hear it in the music. Jimi was on another level.
@@soyborne.bornmadeandundone1342 society is largely crappy to everyone, it’s just the problems other people are facing aren’t getting the same attention by the MSM.
@@Atezian I can’t hear the oppression in Jimi’s music at all, Robert Johnson? Blind Willie? I can hear it their music but not Jimi’s, all I hear in Hendrix’s music is freedom and liberation. In fact Hendrix went over to Britain and it was a largely white audience he was playing to and accepted by. The old blues guys didn’t like his playing cos they thought it was too “white” and not traditional enough. The only thing oppressing Hendrix was his guitar cos it couldn’t go as far as his mind could.
Tô aqui sentado no jardim botânico de Curitiba, dia 12/11 06:08 da manhã, pra ver o meu terceiro show do rhcp na turnê deles aqui no Brasil. Na frente dessa paisagem, a primeira música que me deu vontade de ouvir foi essa. Só pra ficar registrado e eu lembrar desse momento de paz quando ver esse comentário de novo daqui a algum tempo. Obrigado john
Im a man and im straight but john frusciante is such a beautiful human being , that im just in love with him . he touches my soul in a way that nothing else does , im fucking down right now , on one of my lowest lowest moments of my life , and listening to at least 1 john song , makes everything better for a while , i just hopes he has a wonderful life as he deserves , and i hope that some day i may be able to return everything he did for me . sometimes i feel hes just like the only one there you know?
TheResurrection13 i feel more or less the same about him and his music man,... im not on my lowest of lows.. but he often gives me somewhere to go.. its so sad that he said he doenst want to release music anymore.. it sucks he became an electronic artist.. but i suppose he wants to retire and want something new... to explore.. he has achieved greatness already with his solo project and RHCP.. hes an amazing soul, a beautiful person.. unreplaceable person...
You made the tears rolling on my cheeks, i'm listenning to John when i feel he is the only one who could help me, like right now. John is more than an artist, he has the power of making people flying into a better world, and that is one of the reasons I'm in love with this man.
There was a time where I had cancer. It was in my mouth. I was dead. Heard this song while hopelessly browsing /b/. I cried for a good 4 hours. I recently had surgery and I'm miraculously all clear. Coming back to this song reminds me of some sad times.
I am thoroughly convinced that us, John Frusciante fans feel emotions in a different way than normal people. The same way John does. We don’t listen to his music, we experience it.
A forma com que John externa o que há em seu abstrato vai além de alguém cantando e tocando um instrumento e nós que ouvimos não somos pessoas que estamos aqui para curtir um som, mas se trata de uma conexão, vai além do senso comum.
I don't know why but I just started crying so much towards the end. I've never had a song impact me so much before. I guess thats the amazing power John has in his music
David Palacios John Frusciante's "23 Go in to End" made me cry like a little baby. No lyrics, but you can feel the emotion, pain, happiness, everything...
I cry to this song all the time. John and Eyedea ( Michael Larsen) are the only people that have mad me cry in over a decade. Fucking love them both like family, saved me from pulling the trigger or pushing that plunger, countless times!
I came across this song after my friend Kevin died back when I was just a kid. I’ll never forget his funeral or what I felt. This song is a box that I can peer into and feel exactly what I felt nearly a decade ago. Miss you, Kev. Keep watching over us.
I used to listen to this song every night before falling asleep my senior year of HS. That was 12 years ago...time moves fast. Still just as beautiful now as it was then tho
Being inside of an appartment in city where no one knows you at 3 am not knowing whether to go to school or continue the job search and then hitting the play button to this just unleashed the tears.
I don't know about other people here but I didn't interpret this song as a true suicidal song. It seems to me that this shows how strong the will to live can be once a person finds their purpose. John is still alive and he's doing what he loves and what makes his life worth living. Making music that's simply being listened to in its purest unadulterated form. He's making his heaven and we all need to do the same.
Yes, the first part of the song is sad and dark, but the last part just brings light into the song. It's brilliantly brought and i agree with the meaning you find, but i also think he wants to share the fact that death in itself isn't such a sad thing, but a thing that is the end of our physical being, and altought we might fear it, we lived a great life. I think that would be pretty good since i think he mentionned he doesn't mind dying :)
what I found out was that death and awakening are the same thing, hence why some people go for the death. They are the same thing. With awakening, something must change, old things must fade away, die and with suicide, death, it's the same - reincarnation.
I'm going away, forever, I'm going away, forever, Never coming back this way, Never coming back to this place. What I need is a heaven, What I really need is a heaven, A place to go where I can really be, A place to go where I can really be Where I can really be. Dreaming my life away, counts for nothing, Dreaming my life away, counts for nothing, But nothing ever is the end, No, nothing ever is the end. It's sure been a full life for me, yeah It's sure been a full life for me, yeahh It's sure been a full life for me, baby, its sure been a full life for me
I was at the lowest point ever in my life tonight. I've been suffering from depression on and off since i was 10 years old. I was hanging out with a bunch of my friends tonight and and all of a sudden i became extremely depressed and told my friends that i was going home because i was tired, but the real reason i was going home was because i was going to kill myself. One of my friends walked me down to the busstop and we talked and i went back together with him to my friends. I got home about an hour ago and listened to Dying Song and i cried from beginning to end because i wanted to die, but I felt i could relate to the pain that John sings about in this song. This song stopped me from commiting suicide.. tank you John Frusciante for saving my life!
+johannes klein johansen This story made me cry. I'm crying right now, not because I relate to you, but because I don't want anyone to feel like you described... May you fucking live in peace and happiness brother, make the fucking best out of your life. 'Let me live, so when it's time to die, even the Reaper cries, let me die so when it's time to live another sun wil rise...' Brendan's Death Song - Red Hot Chili Peppers
I'm glad u hung on my friend send me a friend request I too have depression and have started a small group called mind matters please no that ur not alone and JF has saved me too
Such a moving and beautiful story of survival and hope. Sending you all my love and prayers brother. I hope you eventually overcome your illness or at least learn to live with it as best as you possibly can and you are able to live a fulfilled and peaceful happy life xxx
I don't think most of his fans are depressing persons... I reported the comment of this guy though. Such a stupid way to say what he thinks. So disrespectful. No-one forced him to read.
Yesterday I lost an important person, someone I loved really hard. We argued a lot about something that happened and two hours later her mom called me from hospital, telling me that she died in a car accident. I'm a huge fan of John and hearin' this song makes me sad, 'cause I'd just like to go back in time and tell her that I loved her, more than anything in the world. And this song teached me that even if someone dies, or you just lose someone, you will always remember him/her. I don't think I'll be able to carry on with my life easily, but I sure know that this song is a masterpiece. To C, forever in my heart.
The part where he sings "It sure been a full life for me baby" can be very sad but at the same time so happy and beautiful... You can also hear "it's your beautiful life for me baby".
"Show me a beautiful life for me, baby." The first time I've heard, and thought thats what he said because all the hardships hes been through and wants more evidence that this world is worth living.
its my 19th birthday today. and i used to listen to john ALL the time when i was like 15, but nowadays i dont get a chance to. but every birthday, i always end up here on youtube, listening to his music. i just cant stop listening to him once i start. just pick up my guitar and play along to what ever im listening to and everything kind of goes away for an hour or two. its awesome. i think i will always listen to john, even when im old and its my 99th birthday lol.
Damn, same experience here but 2 years difference. Just did the calculations with 12 year old comment. Strange thing is I'm even looking like Mr Frusciante now that I'm older
The most beautiful song in the world. I think about death a lot. Sometimes life is so hard and depressing. But one day, when the death comes, all I want is to look back and be able to say "it sure been a full life for me, baby".
Es curioso escuchar ésta canción estando vivo, no fue para nada fácil llegar al presente. Me siento feliz de no haber cometido un crimen conmigo mismo el cual es dejar ésta vida hace ya algunos años, es tan preciso como estas notas y letras me llevan directamente a los momentos donde más necesitaba un ''todo estará bien''. Perfecta canción que me acompaño en mis lamentos, gracias por tanto Frusciante, gracias por haber sido mi compañía con tus canciones en mis peores momentos y resguardarme.
LYRICS [Verse 1] I'm going away, forever I'm going away, forever Never coming back this way Never coming back to this place [Verse 2] What I need is a heaven What I really need is a heaven A place to go where I can really be A place to go where I can really be Where I can really be [Verse 3] Dreaming my life away, counts for nothing Dreaming my life away, counts for nothing But nothing ever is the end No, nothing ever is the end [Outro] It's sure been a full life for me, baby It's sure been a full life for me, yeah It's sure been a full life for me, baby It's sure been a full life for me It's sure been a full life for me, baby It's sure been a full life for me, yeah It's sure been a full life for me, baby It's sure been a full life for me It's sure been a full life for me, baby It's sure been a full life for me, yeah It's sure been a full life for me, yeah It's sure been a full life for me
***** but i feel this song is most fitting, it says everything, i'm gone. but it's okay "sure been a full life for me". and i'm happy cus i got what i really need and where i can really be :)
I come back to this song every time because I want to keep fighting, leave this place and be happy with my girlfriend no matter what. Most of the time I feel so wasted and tired and about to give up, but deep down I know I have to keep going, for me, for her, for the future we want to build, and because I'm trying my best to be happy. John is such a genius and his music always rescued me from falling down the bottom.
This song will always hit different. It brings me to tears and really hits because it’s so real, John frusciante’s music is so real. It’s so special. I will never forget how it felt to discover this song and the rest of his music and the way it impacted me. I love you John, thanks for this beautiful art. I don’t know you but I feel very connected to you and can relate to your music in a way I haven’t felt with any other artist
When he repeats “dreaming my life away counts for nothing” that’s the goosebumps moment Just pure emotion I’m not familiar with much of john’s stuff but he has written the perfect song with dying song.
John has been an important part of my life. The lows are unimaginable each time I reach them, but with Johns music, I feel free and liberated from pain by singing his soulful lyrics. Thank you so much JF you continue saving my life
I just fell in love with his voice, so soft and silk here. It gives peace to me but in some parts my heart's just broken by its beauty. When I start to listen to that I can't stop, his voice in that song is just unbelievable perfect. Especially I lovce this part when he screams "nothing", so much emotions.
John wrote this after listening to a Björk live concert. I'm mostly sure the song didn't come from a place of depression or feeling like he wanted to die or anything like that. Of course there's sadness in it, but only in the same way life has sadness in it. You come and you leave, and the world keeps spinning. The last lines are almost ironic in this context. "Sure's been a full life for me baby" sounds like something Humphrey Bogart would say in a corny death scene. But it's also something one might say contemplatively while leaving your old life behind, where the things you were and the things you said don't matter anymore. Those things matter very little when you are departing for something new, something you don't know yet. At least that's what I feel about it.
Like many here, this song helped me through very tough times and bouts of depression. It’s a trip listening to this and looking back nearly a decade to where I was at the time when I discovered this song. Grateful for this piece of music
fav thing about frusciante is his ability to do such wonderful harmony with his voice and then play something on his guitar that suites it so perfectly
Never stop doing what you do John, most of the artists can't feel what they sing, you're still one of the few who speak with the heart. You bring peace to my life.
Good God. I just heard this for the first time. A master of starting in a general lightness and bringing passion and darkness by the time youre most way through the song
Words cannot describe how grateful I am, for this man still being alive and making music. Hopefully he will be around for many years to come and continue to make beautiful music like this.
this song is very sad but it doesn't depress me at all, I feel in other place when I hear it, a place near to Heaven, and I don't need to die to feel it. I think that s what John means , not being death but feeling te pure of the Other place
Reminds me of the summer holiday. The time we went to Miami with my friends cabrio. We got up early, head into town to buy ourselves icecream, hopped in the car and drove of to the coast. Playing this song on repeat, singing along with the lyrics as the sun rose above the ocean water.
Just figured the ending goes "It's sure been a full life for me". Always thought it went "Too beautiful life for me" Feels like I'm hearing the song for the first time after that, awesome
I adore John and this song, it makes me think of my uncle, also named John and also a talented musician who took his own life in 2008, dearly missed and loved! Nothing is ever the end :)
The way I interpret this song is that he's sort of reconciling with the fact that he is at some point going to die and that he will never come back the way he is in this life, but that some part of him will continue on somehow and also thankful for the life he's had so far.. "Never coming back this way, never coming back to this place" and then "But nothing ever is the end, no nothing ever is the end".. It sounds like a really sad song but it's actually a song full of hope and joy.. at least how i see it:)
I heard this song first from "the brown bunny" movie. A few hours later mom told me that dad had passed away... I always think of this song as my dad's 'goodbye'. Thank you, John, for this song... Forever grateful!
Damn I freakin swear í could jam 2 this back2back over&over i #LOVE 💘🎶🎼🎧this song #John.F your the Man much Luv&Respect from #Texas...😎 thanx for the great music
2:11 - 2:27 makes me so sad. Just a perfect video for this song. John Frusciante has so much soul in his songs. Everyone sould have a chance to listen to this amazing song. Long live to JF. No words for his music.. just pure emotion, power, magic and soul.
I think that most of people don't interpret well when John say about death. Analyzing her songs you will realize that when he say about death, he wanna say about life, that is, finding youself, growing as a human, etc.. the will to the death. In this song I interpret the "Dying" as chosing another and meangniful life, because when he sign: "It's sure been a full life for me, baby" is a life without meaning, where everything fit and don't change. Reasserting when he sign: "I'm going away forever, Never coming back this way". So this for me is a song for life, for find youself and make you own heaven. If you put he past in comparison, the song will make even more sense.
Siento que John hizo la musica más transparente, emotiva, tierna y depresiva d toda su carrera en este periodo 2001-2004. Particularmente creo q estar cerca de Vincent Gallo lo llevó forzosamente a purificar ese lado y dar lugar a otra experimentacion que tomaria lugar luego de este periodo. La musica de John y las peliculas de Gallo son casi como costillas de un mismo cuerpo
This is my favorite one, Thank you John😭😭😭😭! My brother just died in March, so this one is for him. It's like a comfort to me because I know he in peace now, thanks to you John. I may never meet you, but from heart and soul I truly thank you for this. Thanks to you I can stop greiving and finally smile😃😃😃! Thank you John, much love man!!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Frusciante fans are a family, keep yourself calm, don't argue and fight over little things, just enjoy the music
+Sakari Nieminen Very true! Still haven't met one in person though :(
best community on youtube ever ;)
bless you. this is truth.
im a part of this family.. even if i dont have friend who listen frusciante music...
@@MrLamoyo same here...
We played this at my boyfriend's funeral (huge fan of John). It was so sad, it's been four years and this is the first time I've listened to it since.
Sucks to hear. Hope it's sure been a full life for him but then again, once you've listened to John, you get that much closer to living a full life.
***** fucking true, i'm a different persone after i listened to john..
so sad to hear, i hope life will get you and your boyfriend to a much happier place
i wish someone could play this at my funeral when i die but probably no one will come :/
***** Don't say that man. I'm sure someone carry you in his/her heart, and if you just feel lonely, remember that even in lonelyness you're never alone. Love.
Man I love Frusciante's comment section. It's so damn real, so full pf feelings.
I like to read about you're lives, the experiences, the sadness, the memories, the loneliness. But also the joy, the love for the music.
It's so crazy to think about all that people feeling the same way you feel in this moment.
'i dont play guitar, I play emotion'- Jimi Hendrix. Frusciante is another master of emotion. Beautiful.
I really think that we are all imposters compared to Jimi. He lived in a time of oppression for being born black. You can hear it in the music. Jimi was on another level.
@@Atezian Society is STILL largely crappy to black folks... But I know what you mean. Just wanted to stress that so no one thinks we're morons.

John Frusciante is Just Fantastic.
Just fantastic is John Frusciante
I used to listen to this song every night before falling asleep my senior year of HS. That was 12 years ago...time moves fast. Still just as beautiful now as it was then tho
Hey! We graduated around the same time. I listened to John a ton growing up thanks to my mom. Hope you’re doing well!
Being inside of an appartment in city where no one knows you at 3 am not knowing whether to go to school or continue the job search and then hitting the play button to this just unleashed the tears.
i hope your okay now
you'll be alright................ . . .. .. .. .. ... .. . .. .

you seem incredibly wise and articulate
your username is über cool as well!
No one ever understands me like John Frusciante...
without ever knowing you :) his feelings are universal for people who allow themselves to feel :)
mcnimi I am 57 and I agree with your comment about Frusciante
Trinia Alexander thanks trinia :)
I fall asleep and wake up to a Frusciante song that makes me look inside and see me.
Right!
I'm going away, forever,
I'm going away, forever,
Never coming back this way,
Never coming back to this place.
What I need is a heaven,
What I really need is a heaven,
A place to go where I can really be,
A place to go where I can really be
Where I can really be.
Dreaming my life away, counts for nothing,
Dreaming my life away, counts for nothing,
But nothing ever is the end,
No, nothing ever is the end.
It's sure been a full life for me, yeah
It's sure been a full life for me, yeahh

Dom Jhon Games It's better to regret something you did, than something you didn't do.... Flea said it himself, and I hope this will help you...
Thanks man helped me a lot, I told her, and she will finish to stay with me
Dom Jhon Games I hope you have good luck in life and love, we all do deserve it, I believe. John Frusciante made me realise that. Love and be loved
Thanks, to you too
The part where he sings "It sure been a full life for me baby" can be very sad but at the same time so happy and beautiful... You can also hear "it's your beautiful life for me baby".
I thought he says true beautiful life for me baby lol
ah, and I thought he was saying, too beautiful life for me.
all heard versions are good haha
epic song
I think the very last line is "It's your beautiful life OR me" , which makes it that much more of a bluesy song.
Throbbin Wood Interesting option :) So many interpretations, I guess everyone can hear what the song makes them to hear
"Show me a beautiful life for me, baby." The first time I've heard, and thought thats what he said because all the hardships hes been through and wants more evidence that this world is worth living.
its my 19th birthday today. and i used to listen to john ALL the time when i was like 15, but nowadays i dont get a chance to. but every birthday, i always end up here on youtube, listening to his music. i just cant stop listening to him once i start. just pick up my guitar and play along to what ever im listening to and everything kind of goes away for an hour or two. its awesome.
i think i will always listen to john, even when im old and its my 99th birthday lol.
31 I'm guessing. Still find the time to listen to John ?
I dont think you´ll reach it :) Jk, im rooting for u
Damn, same experience here but 2 years difference. Just did the calculations with 12 year old comment. Strange thing is I'm even looking like Mr Frusciante now that I'm older
I mean 33 now
This song had pulled me out of really tough times several times. Thank you John
“nothing is the end”... stay strong guys it will be okay and the pain is ok too. existence and feelings can be beautiful even if painful
gran compañía en tiempos oscuros de mi vida, ahora que veo la luz vuelvo igual a este canción para apreciarla desde otro lugar. Te amo John!
The most beautiful song in the world. I think about death a lot. Sometimes life is so hard and depressing. But one day, when the death comes, all I want is to look back and be able to say "it sure been a full life for me, baby".
Oh dear John, my only constant friend in this wretched life even though we never met.
we love u john, back to music and comeback to rhcp
Es curioso escuchar ésta canción estando vivo, no fue para nada fácil llegar al presente. Me siento feliz de no haber cometido un crimen conmigo mismo el cual es dejar ésta vida hace ya algunos años, es tan preciso como estas notas y letras me llevan directamente a los momentos donde más necesitaba un ''todo estará bien''. Perfecta canción que me acompaño en mis lamentos, gracias por tanto Frusciante, gracias por haber sido mi compañía con tus canciones en mis peores momentos y resguardarme.
LYRICS
[Verse 1]
I'm going away, forever
I'm going away, forever
Never coming back this way
Never coming back to this place
[Verse 2]
What I need is a heaven
What I really need is a heaven
A place to go where I can really be
A place to go where I can really be
Where I can really be
[Verse 3]
Dreaming my life away, counts for nothing
Dreaming my life away, counts for nothing
But nothing ever is the end
No, nothing ever is the end
[Outro]
It's sure been a full life for me, baby
It's sure been a full life for me, yeah
It's sure been a full life for me, baby
It's sure been a full life for me
It's sure been a full life for me, baby
It's sure been a full life for me, yeah
It's sure been a full life for me, baby
It's sure been a full life for me
It's sure been a full life for me, baby
It's sure been a full life for me, yeah
It's sure been a full life for me, yeah
It's sure been a full life for me
i feel that most John fans would like this song played at their funeral... i know i do
God never dies :)
I have honestly said that so many times , Literally took the words out of my mouth
Wow funny to see this comment here :) I know i do too..
***** good song
***** but i feel this song is most fitting, it says everything, i'm gone. but it's okay "sure been a full life for me". and i'm happy cus i got what i really need and where i can really be :)
I come back to this song every time because I want to keep fighting, leave this place and be happy with my girlfriend no matter what. Most of the time I feel so wasted and tired and about to give up, but deep down I know I have to keep going, for me, for her, for the future we want to build, and because I'm trying my best to be happy.
John is such a genius and his music always rescued me from falling down the bottom.
i feel this man...
Be strong. Embrace the suck.
This song will always hit different. It brings me to tears and really hits because it’s so real, John frusciante’s music is so real. It’s so special. I will never forget how it felt to discover this song and the rest of his music and the way it impacted me. I love you John, thanks for this beautiful art. I don’t know you but I feel very connected to you and can relate to your music in a way I haven’t felt with any other artist
2023 e escutando essa obra prima. Frusciante consegue transmitir sentimentos que não podem ser transmitidos..
😔
Hard not to hear this song and cry my favorite guitar player of all time
I think we all came to this beautiful song at the lowest moment
favorite song by john
redruuum for me is scratches
When he repeats “dreaming my life away counts for nothing” that’s the goosebumps moment
Just pure emotion
I’m not familiar with much of john’s stuff but he has written the perfect song with dying song.
Lyrics are unbelievable! Pure poetry
yep
John has been an important part of my life. The lows are unimaginable each time I reach them, but with Johns music, I feel free and liberated from pain by singing his soulful lyrics.
Thank you so much JF you continue saving my life
I just fell in love with his voice, so soft and silk here. It gives peace to me but in some parts my heart's just broken by its beauty. When I start to listen to that I can't stop, his voice in that song is just unbelievable perfect. Especially I lovce this part when he screams "nothing", so much emotions.
I performed this in front of my class for a music assessment my friend started crying. Such a beautiful song.
John wrote this after listening to a Björk live concert. I'm mostly sure the song didn't come from a place of depression or feeling like he wanted to die or anything like that. Of course there's sadness in it, but only in the same way life has sadness in it. You come and you leave, and the world keeps spinning. The last lines are almost ironic in this context. "Sure's been a full life for me baby" sounds like something Humphrey Bogart would say in a corny death scene. But it's also something one might say contemplatively while leaving your old life behind, where the things you were and the things you said don't matter anymore. Those things matter very little when you are departing for something new, something you don't know yet.
At least that's what I feel about it.
True beautiful life for me
Too beautiful a life for me
To a beautiful life for me ..
The artists that struggle the most with depression and drug abuse are the ones that create the most beautiful music..
except for J S Bach.....................................
@@loontil bach was a known crack addict
Like many here, this song helped me through very tough times and bouts of depression. It’s a trip listening to this and looking back nearly a decade to where I was at the time when I discovered this song. Grateful for this piece of music
my favorite song from the guy most definitely.
waiting to see them together on stage again is the only thing keeping me going ive realised. my childhood dream
thanks for everything john
fav thing about frusciante is his ability to do such wonderful harmony with his voice and then play something on his guitar that suites it so perfectly
john is such a beautiful soul
indeed
Amazingly so
shen kargat gcodnia dablokva :( johns ar uyvars egeti ragaceebi
Top World shen ra ici 😏😏
sakutar tavze vigrdzeni :D
Never stop doing what you do John, most of the artists can't feel what they sing, you're still one of the few who speak with the heart. You bring peace to my life.
Dreaming my life away counts for nothing,
Dreaming my life away counts for NOOOOOTHING!!
The way i see it, that sums up my existence
That second "nothing" gives me goosebumps!
The most beautyfull song in the universe. Thanks John, thanks
Still one of the best songs ever
Best song in the UNIVERSE
Definitely want this song played at my funeral.
Good God. I just heard this for the first time. A master of starting in a general lightness and bringing passion and darkness by the time youre most way through the song
There are two people who can do this, with this power, I can't describe... John F. and Elliott Smith
Words cannot describe how grateful I am, for this man still being alive and making music. Hopefully he will be around for many years to come and continue to make beautiful music like this.
John F is LOVE and too good, the artist, just the real gift. Much love and thanks
this song is very sad but it doesn't depress me at all, I feel in other place when I hear it, a place near to Heaven, and I don't need to die to feel it. I think that s what John means , not being death but feeling te pure of the Other place
John takes me to an entirely different place. I feel like I've met with serenity totally when I listen to him.
Sure it does
How has it taken this long for me to hear this song???
He got me in tears after three listens. Bastard :-D
Conhecendo e a cada amando mais e mais a carreira solo do John, me passa mta sensibilidade, melancolia, e uma perspectiva única sobre as coisas.
how beautiful, so much feelings...
Brings me to tears every single time
When my daydreams get clouded by the daily shit storm.....John Frusciante's music is the sun to me
Reminds me of the summer holiday. The time we went to Miami with my friends cabrio. We got up early, head into town to buy ourselves icecream, hopped in the car and drove of to the coast. Playing this song on repeat, singing along with the lyrics as the sun rose above the ocean water.
Just heard this for the first time. Listened to it 3 times in a row. What a beautiful song
I love this song so much 💗
Laura Duarte I completely agree I've been a huge fan of Frusciant's solo work forever. This is one of my favorites I love you John F
Goodbye to all and thank you John for your help at times when there wasn't any and to my son I love you forever ❤️
You’re not alone
Thank you so much John
何ヶ月も前から何度もこの歌を聴いているけどすごく好きです。
どこか物悲しくもあり美しいメロディと歌詞が良い。ジョンの生み出すメロディと歌声は本当に美しいと思います。
Just figured the ending goes "It's sure been a full life for me". Always thought it went "Too beautiful life for me"
Feels like I'm hearing the song for the first time after that, awesome
Back on John's birthday 🎉🎉
Sure has been a full life for me, baby.
I adore John and this song, it makes me think of my uncle, also named John and also a talented musician who took his own life in 2008, dearly missed and loved! Nothing is ever the end :)
been playing 30 years.....this guy is the real deal.I am saddened to know that i am just now discovering him.
The way I interpret this song is that he's sort of reconciling with the fact that he is at some point going to die and that he will never come back the way he is in this life, but that some part of him will continue on somehow and also thankful for the life he's had so far..
"Never coming back this way, never coming back to this place" and then "But nothing ever is the end, no nothing ever is the end"..
It sounds like a really sad song but it's actually a song full of hope and joy.. at least how i see it:)
i also get that feeling from the line: dreaming my life away counts for nothing
ONE OF THE BEST SONGS FRUSCIANTE HAVE EVER MADE. THE BEST ONE IN MY OPINION.
i've been listening to john since i was 15. i'm 19 now...cant imagine what it's gonna be like showing this to my kids when they grow up.
Melody for my ears, only JF can do amazing things like this one!
I heard this song first from "the brown bunny" movie. A few hours later mom told me that dad had passed away... I always think of this song as my dad's 'goodbye'. Thank you, John, for this song... Forever grateful!
This song is a beautiful lullaby.
Questa è la canzone più triste mai scritta, un capolavoro ♥️
Damn I freakin swear í could jam 2 this back2back over&over i #LOVE 💘🎶🎼🎧this song #John.F your the Man much Luv&Respect from #Texas...😎 thanx for the great music
2:11 - 2:27 makes me so sad. Just a perfect video for this song. John Frusciante has so much soul in his songs. Everyone sould have a chance to listen to this amazing song. Long live to JF.
No words for his music.. just pure emotion, power, magic and soul.
I think that most of people don't interpret well when John say about death. Analyzing her songs you will realize that when he say about death, he wanna say about life, that is, finding youself, growing as a human, etc.. the will to the death.
In this song I interpret the "Dying" as chosing another and meangniful life, because when he sign:
"It's sure been a full life for me, baby" is a life without meaning, where everything fit and don't change. Reasserting when he sign: "I'm going away forever, Never coming back this way". So this for me is a song for life, for find youself and make you own heaven.
If you put he past in comparison, the song will make even more sense.
Siento que John hizo la musica más transparente, emotiva, tierna y depresiva d toda su carrera en este periodo 2001-2004. Particularmente creo q estar cerca de Vincent Gallo lo llevó forzosamente a purificar ese lado y dar lugar a otra experimentacion que tomaria lugar luego de este periodo. La musica de John y las peliculas de Gallo son casi como costillas de un mismo cuerpo
The will to death is what keeps me alive
Erika Loyo its one step away
Abraham Flores step away!
This is my favorite one, Thank you John😭😭😭😭! My brother just died in March, so this one is for him. It's like a comfort to me because I know he in peace now, thanks to you John. I may never meet you, but from heart and soul I truly thank you for this. Thanks to you I can stop greiving and finally smile😃😃😃! Thank you John, much love man!!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful.
I could not stop listening to this song. Over and over and over and over . . . . Thank you, John.
so beautiful, makes me cry
