The best Artist existing! I love all of his Songs! John frusciante is god And i am Sorry for everyone who doesen't understand his Music. Just love. Simply love!
@@rick-db1wr maybe because the album name was taken from the title track, where the full line goes "and i smile from the streets, you hold my heart and my hand while im beat"
like I said, I like the beginning of this song, but, I would make it a bit different and longer. I have quite a clear vision of this but, I can´t play guitar. Maybe because of this song and one two others I will learn how to play and then realize my idea. Wait for it, if I will have done it I will upload.
Do it yourself! get some glossy paper, a cd case, burn all the songs into the cd and add some lyrics and a tracklist for extra bravado. Don't wait around for someone else to release it do it now! Take initiative.

He hadn't been on gear long at all by this point. If you wanna hear what he was like in that "really dark period" he was in, listen to "Estress", "More" or "I can't see until I see your eyes". All three were recorded in 1996, that was the point John was in a real, real bad way. He had no teeth and was nearly dead. This song here, was recorded in 1993 when he'd been on gear for not that long, before he'd decided to "do heroin and crack all the time".
this chord at the beginning it is this from low e to high e: 254222. some kind of weird f#-chord. and yeah: it is probably the most epic chord and quite an odd chord on the guitar so remember that one. good to play with 7er chords and majors and quite easy to grab with the barre!
@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" :)
@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...."
I really hope he will re-print it. the prices of fake CDs on ebay are histerical! John said him self back in 2004 or 05 he has plans for puting it on market again. I guess he changed his mind =(
"smile from the streets you hold" is the most fuckin' amazing album name ever!
His idea is always clear to me, even if the song isn't performed well. The melodies John creates and puts to chords are often very impressive.
Lol what does 'performed well' mean????
@@smeagol9693 you figure it out for yourself if you can. lol
LuxeXx there isn't such a thing man
Not performed well, huh? Let's hear you perform it
5% lyrics , 5% tune , 90% emotions and its all in 1 minute
oh god exactly
youre really underselling the song itself. its more like 10% lyrics, 40% tune, and 50% emotion
ten percent luck
, twenty percent skill, fifteen percent concentrated power of will, five percent pleasure, fifty percent pain
god extacly
The best Artist existing! I love all of his Songs! John frusciante is god And i am Sorry for everyone who doesen't understand his Music. Just love. Simply love!
This song is a masterpiece and a great insight into a genius.
Love this man
This song just oozes with raw emotion. I can't watch the video for it though, it breaks my heart.... :-(
I wish John would still record his material in Lo -Fi like he did with Niandra Lades and Usually Just a T-Shirt.
MASTERPIECE!!!!
The album name is inevitably one of my favourite names.... I mean, just so personal and powerful.
why is it so good?
@@rick-db1wr maybe because the album name was taken from the title track, where the full line goes "and i smile from the streets, you hold my heart and my hand while im beat"
@@whynotzara yea that and it’s just a whimsical emotional phrase; “smile from the streets you hold”
it just makes me feel something
Are you kidding? These vocals are incredible!! He's singing with genuine emotion, unlike other "artists" producing music these days.
I love this song, but the videoclip is just sad
I like the beginning of his song
it's amazing, really feeling it
like I said, I like the beginning of this song, but, I would make it a bit different and longer. I have quite a clear vision of this but, I can´t play guitar.

Check out the extended version
@@DrAtmo Well looks like that never happened lol
radiohead plagiarized this to their "how to dissapear completely" song
beautiful
Seeeeeex it´s wateeer! ♫♪
Sometimes I think the only safe place it's in my mind
Still my favorite Johnny song.
I want John to hurry up and re-release Smile from the Streets You hold.
Do it yourself! get some glossy paper, a cd case, burn all the songs into the cd and add some lyrics and a tracklist for extra bravado.

That will never happen unfortunately.

My copy of this cd has a different version of this.
I'd like to hear that man
Me too.
@@federicolopez1585 He's probably talking about this one from the 18 tracks version ua-cam.com/video/2nQkcN4fqHI/v-deo.html
That intro is for the heartbroken
Blinded me in the how baby
She wanna be happy?!
Well, life's a bath
Sex is water.
Life's a bath
Sex is water
Ahh... yeah
C'mon, C'mon
Where was this recorded. That reverb and live sound is unbelievable
Shootin heroin on the bathroom floor
Stubbed my toe on the door
HashMagician I hope you’re doing alright
She wanna be happy? Well... Life's a bath, sex is water.
this chord at the beginning it is this from low e to high e: 254222. some kind of weird f#-chord.
and yeah: it is probably the most epic chord and quite an odd chord on the guitar so remember that one.
good to play with 7er chords and majors and quite easy to grab with the barre!
it's an augmented chord
I love you man
I love this chord I call it the lifes a bath chord.
The chord you stated is "Dmaj7/F#"
Why he puts a sort of delay in half song? when I heard for the first time I was a little bit scaried!
That part like makes the whole song lmao, well I mean it just makes it that much more errie, or like the other guy said, haunting
@AcrylicMockingbird
you'll need to listen to the emotion the playing/singing emits.
@TehSorso
I imagined you were misunderstanding ;)
Frusciante is an italian surname, so the meaning is quite clear to me! (and you were right!) ;)
@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" :)
i always heard life's a bath sand is water xD well im glad i learned its sex before i did my cover haha
Life's a bath, sex is water?
@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...."
@ChimpDotCom
thanks ;)
@MyLoVeLyMaN i think it mean "whisperer" or something.
@MyLoVeLyMaN
rustling?
@agbleu
I like the way the name sounds..but..does it has a meaning?
I'm italian, I can't get the meaning..maybe just hasn't it..help! XD
O:42..........................
The 2001 live version of this is even better than this recording.
I really hope he will re-print it. the prices of fake CDs on ebay are histerical! John said him self back in 2004 or 05 he has plans for puting it on market again. I guess he changed his mind =(
@MyLoVeLyMaN :) i thought you were talking about "frusciante"... sorry :D
this was made when he's insane
Were all insane
@TehSorso
uhm..whisperer?
Did he release a CD for this album?
Yep, but it is kinda hard to find a copy :)
Buy it tho. It is a great follow up to Niandra ladies and made to record only water such a shocking album. I love you.
lifes a bath*
Did he record this in a bathroom
Yes
considering the song is called Life’s a Bath it’s just so perfect that he recorded it in the bathroom
what are the chords used in the intro?
Only 10 years late to this comment but i believe he plays a C#7 triad and Fmin in root position.
Alden Kelly thanks bro, 10 years later this song is still important to me
@@Jmc401 Not a problem. Im looking forward to saying same thing 10 years from now haha.
it's sex
Sex is water?
Lol.
I heard tax is water..
If Life's a bath, he needs to wash away all those drugs he's been taking.
@Thepelucasabe dude this is terrible.. hes much better off in the chili peppers
@se3d his vocals are terrible.
No, it's emotional
this sucks
You know something you suck
