"Dad, there's no video!" - I guess that's what most 8-year-olds base their impressions of music on :) I said son, this doesn't need a video. Just listen.
Do you know that Christianity is correct? The world around us reveals that G-d DOES exist, and the historical evidence reveals that Jesus Christ really did come to this earth and there is overwhelming evidence that Jesus Christ really did physically rise from the dead. Jesus is coming again and the signs of the end times that were foretold in the Bible are coming to pass.
Folks, John has done a fine cover of the song, but he did not write the song, It was written by Tim Buckley and his writing partner Larry Beckett, you can find it on the Starsailor album.
@thepope38 this may sound a little harsh and i really dont want to say something horrible about your GF but....I mean....you don't need to end 'it'.......you need to end HER!!!! haha I'm jst kidding but i do find it difficult for people not to like John, but it's each to their own i guess!!!
@crappyguitarist12 step by step im getting her there lol..i got her to like "Scar tissue" (i know not john but john with RHCP) but that is his guitar so...step by step she's coming along lol..but i need not worry..when i have music like this...
I love the full circle this song creates. The beaten, broken man resolving not to give up, not to suffer under the breakers of emotional torture, but instead to try and lure another to his same rotten fate.
Or, maybe, even amend the emotional sins of the one that led him to this, by keeping his promise of emotional connection and loving embrace to whoever heeds his call.
Please please can someone tell me, on the second verse what the actual lyrics are? It does sound like, "were you hare when i was fox", but half the lyrics on the internet (as above in the description) contradict this. Does anyone know for sure?
@A55K1KKR it's 'were you hare when i was fox', it fits the song far more than the other lyrics. if you want to be very sure, check the original version by Tim Buckley
@ChetZenor the empyrean is trippy yea but his most progressive albumm is definately sphere in the heart of silence. the empyrean is different then sphere because sphere had the least guitar on it which is somthing that was became less prominent in his music. sphere has guitar as a backround instrument because of that whole elctronica style of creativity he took on, on the empyrean he returns to the guitar as a more prominent but still i wouldnt say this album has more guitar than shadows
JOHN FRUSCIANTE SHOULD ROT IN PIECES I HOPE HE NEVER FINDS PEACE IN THIS LIFE AGAIN HE IS A KID KILLER N DRUG DEALER HE SHOULD HAVE KILLED HIMSELF AFTER HE KILLED RIVER!!! HE WILL ROT IN HELL SOMEDAY:)

@Dimes329 Get the whole cd, lay down, sit, whatever. Turn out all the lights. Crank volume. Close your eyes and relax. This cd cured my insonmia, probably one of the most amazing cd's i've ever listened to once you understand the atmosphere
@JeremyMoar You're absolutely right! I listen to this whole album almost every night while I'm in my bed with the lights out and I feel like I went from this world, to John's :) cheers
anyone ever read "The Prophet" by Kahlil Gibran? i think that book coincides with many ideas john writes about. sooo check it out and i wanna know what you guys think
No words can describe how much I love this man, his passion for Music has always been an inspiration for me. If one day I'll be a good musician it's gonna be just thanks to him and my father who has always been believing in me.
i dont remember the exact interview, whether it be audio or video, but he said he wanted to make an album he could trip out to. this album def does that, personally, weed and shrooms can only help the sonic experience this album gives.
woah, woah, woah don't go saying "there doesn't exist a fake or materialistic bone in his body" lol i love him but the dude was addicted to heroin for most of his career and i don't know if you've ever done heroin, but one is both fake and materialistic when chillin on it
@TheBenShow I'm certain he means now, including the time he gave up the addiction. Frusciante grew into a person who no longer cares about money and fame.
@TheBenShow that's usually my argument when i hear people on hear calling him Jesus. He's a great musician but far from perfect. From What i've seen though since he's been clean he's been a pretty good dude.
Definitely: I personally believe he's become somewhat enlightened after his near-fatal situation over a decade ago. One of the reasons I feel so much passion for his music and him as a person is that he persevered, and made only beautiful creations for himself and his fans to listen and enjoy in the aftermath!
@isaacincabo - it's a Tim Buckley song from the sixties. not a cover for this mortal coil, albeit their performance isn't all that bad this one tops it tenfold.
my boyfriend's the new guitar player for RHCP, ain't that great? :) but don't worry, everyone's happy with John & what he's doing, Josh will be fine too, trust me!
how beautiful is this, keep coming back to this song so much.. well no john in the chillis, weve been here before.......but still, i could listen to johns voice forever..such a beautiful man, ive waited, for the new chilli album, live shows, this year, kinda wont seem the same with mr F...
yeah jeff did drown. there where spoken of that he maybe took suicide. but i dont know. he hanged out with his best friend at the beach and was singing and stuff. it sounds like they had rly fun. so i dont rly beleive in that suicide thing. though he wanted to take a swim with his clothes on but.. no i doubt the suicide.
@andrew19vato 2 years ago (when I made that comment), the album had just come out. It wasn´t hard to find all the videos made with the music of the Empyrean.
he's pretty talented. i'm a huge fan of his son, as well. you might want to check out Jeff Buckley.
jeff buckley drowned in the mississippi river in like 1997. he was tim buckley's son who was like john frusciante in the sense that he played guitar like a madman and dabbled in drugs but you should really listen to his voice.
i suggest a song called "lover you should've come over"
i dont know man. if u want to listen to some calm freaking good music u should listen to this gentle, one of the most talented persons u can ever imagine
this man is the best musician in the world. and what makes him even greater is there doesn't exist a fake or materialistic bone in his body. all artists should hope to half of the passion mr frusciante has.
@defstoner18 "there doesnt exist a fake or materialistic bone in his body" he is human, isnt he? youre acting like youve known him for years lol "defstoner"
Still prefer Liz's version, but this one is growing on me. They took off Mortal Coil Song to the Siren on Myspace, why? Buckley's is too heavy w/accent. It does need a woman's voice i think.
goosebumps. every single listen touches me more and more. if i could sing a song with an ounce of the feeling and depth that frusciante puts into his work then i could die a happy man.
I think the Tim Buckley version is the best and I am lucky enough to have it on original vinyl- crackles and all. It is such an amazingly composed song. I love John and what he does and why he does it. I can't wait for the new album to arrive in the post. I am so happy he's been back to work. He is, to me, the most interesting and original musician of our time. A spectacular musician that deserves more credit for his solo work.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
yeah, Tim Buckley's version is much better. And rightfully so; it's Tim's song. Still don't see what all the hoopla is about John Fruscianti...very over-rated.
There's a you tube hit of Tim Buckley doing this song on a television show back in the late 60s or early 70s. Give it a listen if you really want hear how this song should be done.
Awesome.....there is no actual singer who has that soul, sadness and desire in his voice, you can believe in everything he sings and you feel that every word comes from his soul....great , absolutely great!
So happy that my idol did a cover of the father of my other idol. After a year I still can't believe my ears :)

He is, to me, the most interesting and original musician of our time. A spectacular musician that deserves more credit for his solo work.

yeah, Tim Buckley's version is much better. And rightfully so; it's Tim's song. Still don't see what all the hoopla is about John Fruscianti...very over-rated.

There's a you tube hit of Tim Buckley doing this song on a television show back in the late 60s or early 70s. Give it a listen if you really want hear how this song should be done.

Awesome.....there is no actual singer who has that soul, sadness and desire in his voice, you can believe in everything he sings and you feel that every word comes from his soul....great , absolutely great!
