They sound and look like a bad JA cover band. F***ing shame. They were the gods of the early nineties and this song is the best song ever written, imo. This version is just lame...
SEEN THEM AT THE BARROWLANDS NEARLY 20 YEARS AGO - AND IT WAS THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER SEENIN A LIVE PERFORMANCE !! - HAD NEVER EVEN HEARD OF THEM UNTILL THAT NIGHT AND THEY WERE SHOCKINGLY UN-FUCKING-BELIEVABLE...! WILL NEVER GIVE UP ON YOU GUYS - THESE SONGS ARE FOREVER WITH ME - GOT INTO GRAFFITI ..AND DID A LOT OF NICE "WORK" WHILST LISTENENING TO YOUR MIND ALTERING CHOONZ !! - YOU GUYS ROCK - LONG LIVE JANE'S ADDICTION !!
Three days... what a master piece. The voice is not the same but at least, the guitar sound like those golden years. Sad, the recording stops when the 2nd solo is about to start!! I hate you!!! :D
JA is going to play in Chile, but I cannot afford the cost to cross the border... Oh yeah, it's all about the money.
i think 4 janes the reforming of past tenses is purely a healing process . it takes a life time to heal one past . still on their own terms . dont knock old gods for without them we would not have .
I hate to say it, because Jane's is one of my favorite bands ever, but I hate the fact that they have downtuned. I think they sound terrible this way.
@DemonSlide I agree with you 100%. I went to the NIN/JA show and left a bit disappointed. NIN kicked so much ass that it was embarrassing that Janes had to follow them. This is coming from someone who isn't a NIN fan. What a great live band.
@scardwel Perry's vocals are tossed off half-heartedly, or he simply can't sing anymore. Either way, the people aren't getting what they pay for. J.A. used to be one of the most primal forces in music, but when they re-grouped in '97 or whenever, it seemed like the magic was gone.
perry is now more a comediant than an artist,, is sad for me too, he should be doing some late night show,,, there would be more dignity for perry there
@m0zc0re What are you talking about?? You can't get more Jane's Addiction then the 4 founding members. But if you talking about Perry then yes he needs to get rid of his yoko ono and do more heroin.
@coloredtoad He cannot sing anymore. That's what I'm saying. If you can no longer do it, then leave it be. Anything less than top notch is a shameless cash grab.
@m0zc0re Of course its Janes Addiction, thats the whole original band there, inc Eric Acery on bass. Now if you are talking about the version without Avery on bass, and 'Strays' then I kinda agree with you, but this is Janes 1.0
@m0zc0re Who's "kept" it after 25 years? Not too many of them out there. Adam Ant? No. Coverdale? No. Reznor? Maybe. Farrel is quite an acrobatic vocalist and I'm sure it's easier for Roger Waters to sing "the wall" than it is for Perry to do "ocean size" for twenty years. They're pretty high energy still for a group of guys that have been doing it for that long.
Bought tickets for there Melbourne show last year in october I waited for months to see them and then they cancel never to return..... you reckon I was shattered,
@peetrwilson After they tour Australia he's quitting again because Perry wants to go to the studio. Duff Maccagan or however you spell his last name will be his replacement.
According to NME it was because The Ting Tings significantly overplayed their set. That's probably also why they played a short set... they were probably asked to keep to the schedule.
Real shame they never got to play a full lenght set,,,there was a set of bongo drums at the side of the stage so i presume they planned to play Jane Says....typical festival pulling the plug!!!
Went to see these guys at t in the park to save my ears from killers pish etc. Never heard any of there stuff before but they blew me away. Been 2 t 9 years and it was one of the best live bands av seen!! Amazin!!!
@scottymcgibby Too bad you never saw them back '91 and before. This shit is a parody of the exciting live band they were. This doesn't have the spark it once did. And it's not age and time either.

good to see janes addiction can still rock like fuck. saw the boys at the glasgow academy few year back. had to sit down though! was any 1 else unlucky enough to be in the balcony at that gig?the nazi secruity ruined an amazing gig

@m0zc0re His vocals are half-hearted at best, or he simply cannot sing anymore. Either way, the people are being cheated.
The whole thing, since '97 has felt like an obscene cash grab to me. They left, they came back, and all of the magic was gone IMO.
