This song just oozes with raw emotion. I can't watch the video for it though, it breaks my heart.... :-(

[yannisjacklina]

actually just pure expression. when you hear john say that about hendrix when hes happy, well this is john when hes sad.

I want John to hurry up and re-release Smile from the Streets You hold.

@Theshark15z Yeah I think John's raw emotionality combined with the lo-fi recording just made all his material seem really raw and honest in a compelling way. I think the stream of consciousness composition helped in this regard too.

First two solo albums are far and away the best I think.

[Theshark15z]

I wish John would still record his material in Lo -Fi like he did with Niandra Lades and Usually Just a T-Shirt.

@ChimpDotCom

thanks ;)

@MyLoVeLyMaN the title "smile from the streets you hold" doesn't really mean anything, its the end of one line of a song and the start of another line: "i see your smile from the streets / you hold an...."

[JustFunkme]

@MyLoVeLyMaN it means rustling :)

@TehSorso

I imagined you were misunderstanding ;)

Frusciante is an italian surname, so the meaning is quite clear to me! (and you were right!) ;)

[TehSorso]

@MyLoVeLyMaN :) i thought you were talking about "frusciante"... sorry :D

[MyLoVeLyMaN]

@TehSorso

with "rustling" or "whisperer" ( i know the meaning) are you referring to what..? bath?

I was asking about the title "smile from the streets you hold" :)
