Ive met John twice...in September 91...and then again in 2004. Very nice guy but a seismic shift in his personality. Obviously age and his heavy personal changes played a big role but it was a literally like meeting 2 different people.
It’s wild to think that his junkie stage was something he did for himself to exercise his demons and become more creative, we look at it as a bad thing but that man looked at it as a success, wild.
It hadn't always been like that, he said he used to regret it every day, but then eventually used the willpower to move on basically, and later apparently ended up changing his perspective on that time. I don't think he entered that stage with any plan in his mind at the time, I think he realised what he was really trying to do after analyzing it much, much later. And I still heard him say many times it was his downfall rather than 'success'...
What he's actually drinking is an all-natural detox drink. It's known as a 'cleanse' for your body and promotes good health...but your right. Drinking those is like drinking mud or worse (I know from experience lol) :)
I've heard people say, though I don't know if it's been confirmed for sure, that he drank kava kava throughout this period. It's a legal herb for relaxation, which makes sense that he might use a safe replacement for a while after all the drugs he was on for 5 years.
He's got the same exact voices as me..The way he explains how the voices, talk; thats exactly the same thing that happens in my head ... Do du doo doo!! Do du doo doo!! Twighlight zone!!
@zeppelinstrat it looks like chocolate milk to me but i think its because of the quality i do know he drank a lot of apple juice on stage or ice or sweet tea so i think its one of those
No, he’s described the voices in his head in multiple interviews: apparently they told him he would be a guitarist when he was 7 (and that’s why he started). They also told him to quit RHCP and to start and stop doing drugs. They insulted him as well. He’s said he spent a long time trying to differentiate between the “good” and “bad” spirits, but now “know[s] how to make them happy.”
John Frusciante is the only celebrity that has an equal number of diehard MALE fans, (if not more), as he does females. Women know hes cute and adorable, but the guys that Love him respect and appreciate hia talent. I personally think he's a baby doll, but I know enough about music to know he's a Musical Genius. He is definitely a legend in his own time!!!
C'mon I don't want to bring that "equality" shit here, but hey, I think not every female is only interested in Johnny's looks, we all appreciate not only him as a person but his music at the first place.
Sorry, but I do not like John because he is cute and adorable, probably the least if it counts whatsoever. I love his music, his writing, his playing, his voice and respect him as a person who has gone through hell and more and is now healthy and, hopefully, happy. Your thinking is poor for the times we are living.
Johnny, I love you baby but you're so wrong and completely confused. I'd love to sit down with you for one hour and explain the true meaning of life, bcuz I know exactly what it is and what we're here for. oh Johnny Baby, someone has to get him in touch with me before it's too late. if anyone knows him personally, pls pass this along
Pretty arrogant to assume you know the meaning of life. Not trying to be a jerk but that statement in and of itself is absurd and really shows how much more you need to learn about life. I'm sure YOU think you know the meaning of life...and perhaps it serves you well...but it is 100% subjective. Again...not trying to be a jerk and not looking to start an argument but that statement is about as arrogant as it gets.
@@warborn_inc. you know you're right. And most as it seems in a scentence but not only it is a completely undivergentable and out of context that makes it seems like it was written and it is not to be something that should be in close with the text as it seems so as close it gets it sounds completely out of context and it far from the topic center so we should we all as we come to this get this by it comes.
"when u say the past how far do u .. everything up to now is the past ..." haha

And which version of him did you like most? I totally understand why he changed but I loved so much the old young John
how did he change?
@@ricksturgis6403 thats a total of 13 years
He pushed pushed himself into a place that killed his soul but the shadow people rebuilt him from the inside out he was pretty much just an existence
He is literally 2 people in one body
6:42 other dimension beings telling John hey man don't go telling people everything about us
"everything up til now is the past" - john frusciante 2k1
xD
I wonder if he was trying to subtly tell the interviewer, 'hey, i had a childhood, too. "
Thank you, Ellie.
It's a joy to see JF so happy and relaxed. I also like the chemistry between the interviewer and John. Lovely interview.

I always come back to these interviews
pure artistic genius

pape37 john confirmed that at one of his solo shows in 2001ish I think
I want to know more about the other lives and dimensions! !
hahahaha "when you say in the past, what do you mean?" I love him!
This interview is gold!
4:47 "aww, fuck :("
sergesification lmao
thanks for the upload:-)
This is a great interview! Thank you for posting. I really miss him.
hes back
Wow! Great interview. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him talk so openly.
He's got the same exact voices as me..The way he explains how the voices, talk; thats exactly the same thing that happens in my head ...

"can you please quit now so we can get on with this" 5:48

9:00 hey!
Good interview, shame there wasnt more. Thanks for uploading.
"what do you think kept you alive, what gave you the will to keep on? can you imagine what it was? or was it -"
damn what an ending
I love Somebody from DM too and the fact that John loves it too makes me feel so good.
@jrcsgtpeppers Yep, 2001. (:
Fav view of em all.

So is John Frusciante a shizoprenic, when he heard voices in his head?
I think it was kind of a metaphor
Like he was overthinking about the situation
No, he’s described the voices in his head in multiple interviews: apparently they told him he would be a guitarist when he was 7 (and that’s why he started). They also told him to quit RHCP and to start and stop doing drugs. They insulted him as well.

no, he’s schizotypal
@@lux3919 yeah and here i think hes talking about this happening before he was on tour idk if hes talking aabout childhood here
@@lux3919 or idk if hes talking about hearing the voice on tour before blood sugar.. on a previous tour

I guess the true meaning of life is different for every person. And this was a long time ago
