Once again, I decided to cover an early John Frusciante track. This time it's "Life's A Bath", a song from his second solo album, 'Smile From The Streets You Hold' released in 1997. I made a personal rendition of it as you will hear, by including a reversed lead guitar in the intro and by adding drums & a bass guitar at the very end of the song.

I also recorded a little video, wich is based around addiction and depression, a state John knew too well at the time.

I hope you like it, don't forget to comment & to rate.

Lyrics:
--------
One year went by baby
Does she want to be happy with you?

Life's a bath
Sex is water

Life's a bath
Sex is Water
Oh yeah....

C'mon (x4)
------------
PS: Next cover I will attempt is "My Smile Is A Rifle", which I will record very soon. If you have any suggestions on which songs I should cover in the future, leave me a comment.

Thank You,

  • mate, this is amazing!

    your guitar playing is so Frusciante and the reverse lead really captures what his sound and style was like back then. (sorry, i'm a guitarist too; what guitar (ie type of strat) are you using? a '62 vintage?)

    the video is also great, black and white, like his. and it shocks aswell which is perfect for the song.

  • Hi! First of all, thanks for your comments, it's very kind of you. I use a Standard American Stratocaster (Rosewood neck;On The Bridge Pickup). I also used my trusty Boss GT-8..oh yeah, and my fingers as well ;) plays an important part in your sound as you may already know.

    Cheers!

  • I just have to go on and say that this is so great. You really have the talent! And I'm painfully critical of things. You are so good and you have the feeling projected into the guitar which is so very very very rare. Keep on practising and you'll reach the divine level of other great musicians.

  • Thanks very much man :) I'll have to make some new Frusciante-videos, since people tend to like it.

  • beautiful voice.

  • I have some serious doubts about my voice *hmmm* :p but thank you !

  • wow great work!

  • GREAT COVER MAN!! 

  • Fantastic, you clearly have a good understanding of Johns style and capture it well

  • this is my favourite song of all time. you did it well, good job :P

  • what pentatonic do you use in the intro???by the way...great cover man!!

  • I agree.

    You cant just play the song exactly like JF does

    I think you are embarrasing yourself and insulting something beautiful

    Find your own truth and create your own mmind. wake up and become alive, because you are blind. i cant believe people actually give you credit man

    and the video is repuslive. why did you do that

    your letting yourself down.

  • He is unic like everybody is, let him do what he want, if he want to let us feel something he have on his heart he can. That's the power of music.

  • stop this crap, you can't be as Frusciante! He is unic!

  • what are the chords?
