John Frusciante - Today with Lyrics

[cameronbowe]

I bet john had a zoot before he made this ; )

[DzikiiBobr]

Why this song isn't endless? ;(

[romidcarrera]

@DzikiiBobr I wish this song could sound inside myself at all times!

[glamrocko]

this song its a prayer to me

[ps3duder]

no doubt, I love the work he did in RHCP but listening to his solo albums makes me glad that now he has more time to devote to such wonderful music

[redhotchilisauce888]

never shouldve left rhcp

[romidcarrera]

@redhotchilisauce888 If he left the rhcp to create more music like this one then I'm glad he left it. I don't know if he would have created this kind of music if he still was in rhcp. Still, I also want him back. I like Josh but John is John.

[redhotchilisauce888]

@romidcarrera true, people can be mad at rhcp for going on without out him, or at him for leaving rhcp... but in my opinion they both sound great having expanded their musicaal horizons

[romidcarrera]

@redhotchilisauce888 I always say that Josh was like John's student. Good for him for having the chance to learn from the best guitar's professor hah.

[jviv08]

What an incredible track...just trying to figure out what the lyrics mean and what this song is about though...pure class

[nout1212]

Listen to John sing is a fucking trip

[KafelObrotowy]

If Jesus lived in our times he would look and sing like this ;]

[MrJamjunk]

@KafelObrotowy The thing is while Jesus was alive all the other folks around him took drugs except of him .

[hi0u50fd]

i wish i knew what hes been doing for 2 years. and yes im shocked he is smoking in a modern pic. but come on, this song is amazing. what a genius how does he capture that energy makes the hairs stand on your neck

[ps3duder]

its not a coincidence that he looks like jesus

[flymusicguy]

"...and we're all distorted energy." 

[0000AllFitness0000]

Yes, he smokes...omfg. But he sings better than you and I ever will and is probably going to live longer so stfu!

[avoidlPeril7]

john is still smoking cigarets.....but the main question is.....does he stil smoke weed? I mean. It's just unbealivable the music he plays

[Christophanus]

@avoidlPeril7 haha yeah he does smoke weed aye and always has contrary to popular belief. Alot of people think that john doesnt smoke weeed cause he says that he is clean and healthy, and john and alot of other people dont see weed as "dirty". john has always smoked alot of weed since back in 91'... and how i know is cause theres a few interview in 91, 96, 99, 2004, 2005, 2008 were he might make a comment. eg."ah i cant remember aye... smoked to much weed lol." anyways weeds good if used right

[avoidlPeril7]

@Christophanus haaha as a smoker i totally think so too

[hellman108]

@Christophanus haaha as a non-smooker i totally think so too

[spsrjj]

Who gives a fuck if John smokes or not, it's his personal life. "In your body where you go doesn't matter, cause there will come a time when time goes out the window." I'm just happy this guy makes music, and keeps us anticipated

[04callwilk1]

The most beautiful part about John's music is that all his albums sound so different yet they are all so personal and recognizable as John. No doubt his next album will draw from influences of another era of music and produce a beautiful piece of art. :)

[Jizmol]

i think his lyrics are kinda lacking these day. music and skill are improving astronomically. but wow. i dont think his lyrics can ever beat shadows or curtains

[VertigaDesignMEDIA]

one of the best songs on the album

[TheKliffin]

He has smoked cigs since before he was with RHCP... Look at old videos man...

[andrew19vato]

would people think i was wrong if i thought this sounded like black sabbath a little??

[ashitakah1]

i like the drums in this song

[DrAtmo]

John should better use a vaporizer for smoking da stuff. it is more than 2000 times better because in the normal joint smoke are more than 2000 poison substances what in the steam from a vaporizer are not. And! in the joint you burn about 80% of the thx, with the vaporizer you keep all 100% !!!! it is a big big big big differnent. Try it if you don´t belive me.

[SoundOfLA]

Rhcp without John is not Rhcp anymore

[TheKliffin]

@SoundOfLA Dont be stupid. What about when Hillel died? People said the same thing. I'm not saying Josh is the next John but don't underestimate him. John and Josh have played together for years and Josh has even played on stage with RHCP multiple times. It will be way different but the integrity of the music will still be there. You obviously don't know what the RHCP are about. Think before you speak.

[j30345]

@TheKliffin i would also like to add that...in order participate in the band, you would have to go through an extensive interview and audition to join. RHCP has been in the game for a long time and they would not let anyone just join their band without a thorough process. Obviously the band members know what their doing and they know that Josh will at least contribute something to their on-going talents.

[junkeposse]

Perfect.

[VertigaDesignMEDIA]

i fall down to me knees and cry everytime i listen to john frusciante

[chitah415]

John Frusciante knows how to play the chords of my heart just right. ♥

[FusionShredz]

i think he smokes the odd joint =) not to sure though

[ThePatient189]

@FusionShredz I strongly doubt he smokes weed, considering he's been clean and sober for years and is trying to stay that way. its probably a cigarette

[DrAtmo]

@ThePatient189

I doubt he smokes cigarettes, this doesn´t makes sence. He would be stupid.

[DrAtmo]

@FusionShredz

looks like yes, bute he better should use a vaporizer, this is more than 2000 times better, because in the smoke are more than 2000 poison substances

[OliAngel13]

well done... the video and awesome song, real FRU!!!!

[punkrockchick91191]

John is so beautiful and such a musical genius!!! I can't wait til he comes out with more stuff as good as the Empyrean!!

[Commiteee]

@punkrockchick91191 fuck my dixck u women

[ilovethepeppers]

John Frusciante is so smart

[safari8soldier]

Hey- some people can live without a vice or 2. And some can't. Leave him alone!

[CrunchyBallSacks]

WOOOOW he should do MORE of this type of music. thats just fucking astonishingly good

[hi0u50fd]

its just astonishing to think he can still make completely unique music. i can see why this wasnt on the album as its not as clean-cut as the other songs but i think its one of my favourites. love the typical fru solo at the end!

[GuitarLord71]

god i keep coming back to this. the words are so deep.

[GuitarLord71]

wow. this is a pretty good song. does anyone else think he looks a little skinnier.

[wallski94bass]

amazing

[HuckleberrySlim]

so much to take in on this song :) It hits you like a crash of a wave at first, then it takes on new meaning every time after that.

[JOETAL99]

Does John smoke?!?

[gaza592]

I thinks so :(

[JOETAL99]

Aww man, i thought he was really healthy!

Kinda dissapointed to see him smoking

[TPX10]

at least hes not doin that other shit he did

[JOETAL99]

Yeah, i mean its not effecting his music like on his old stuff with the heroin

[gaza592]

Yeah, where you could hear him coughing in the tracks...his health wus really bad. =/

But YAY! Cus he's better now. :)

[austinandzekesstuff]

mabey cigs, but not coke or any of the really horrible drugs. but cigs are still bad for you

[TheDetainedCragmire]

u fucking nerd

[jessicaanimal]

now this guy is a classic example of a tryhard..congrats you have won yourself a life of missery

[TheDetainedCragmire]

woowho!

i like winning things!

[kill3rkomodo]

asshole

[TheDetainedCragmire]

Your obssesed, i sent that two month ago. But I wasnt even talking about John... Get your facts straiter that you are.

[StrumnTheGuitar]

john said in an interview that he thought cigars were the greatest thing ever invented and if he was president he would put all the anti-smokers in an electric chair

[JeremyMoar]

@StrumnTheGuitar can you send me the interview?



[StrumnTheGuitar]

@JeremyMoar its not on youtube anymore but he said that in the days of mothers milk and he and was probably high off his ass at the time

[TheDetainedCragmire]

well geuss what s,all person he took the worst drug ever made... part from meth lol

[kill3rkomodo]

id think he wouldve quit i mean if he could quit heroin cigs would be no problem still though he has a great voice

[TheDetainedCragmire]

tobacco is any ever hour thing though if you take herion your good for the rest of the day if you have a cig you're gonna want one every hour, the only thing is herion is more life threating

[kurtisstratton]

@JOETAL99 Im pretty sure

[SweetKooshy]

@JOETAL99 ....no shit

[JinglemeisterFilms]

Haha

[juanchidesani]

@JOETAL99 John does not smoke, leave smoking, drinking and drugs when he came back with peppers..

[Nave7]

@JOETAL99 He used to, but he doesn't need drugs anymore to reach that psychadelic state he expresses so well :P

[johnnymac3385]

@JOETAL99 ya he has since he was in his teens

[Christophanus]

@JOETAL99 yeah?... got a fuckin problem with that..... he can do what he wants just so u and other fags that r like "omg he smokes" can get over it



[JOETAL99]

@Christophanus No, just surprised! I wouldn't have thought his voice would sound so good if he smoked, but it totally does!

[Seanus32]

@JOETAL99 Not Vogue slims, I imagine ;)

[fyerfyer1]

@JOETAL99 yep

i saw a video of him smoking

[IC3K4R33M]

Fantastic song, just fucking amazing.

[RyanDunn001]

or maybe hes just singing without words, even if you are right who cares, i think the connection is cool

[maccies99]

The lyrics are good except "Ah ha" I reckon it is "Ah Yom" which, correct me if i'm wrong, is yiddish for "today", which incidently, is the name of another song on the Empyrean.
