Their sound is so unique and has this mystical ambiance that while being comfortable and familiar, it also feels foreign, like an adventure beginning to unravel. I wish they could have unleashed their full potential, River's voice is gorgeous and he is so missed.
I'm so sad we'll never be able to see what River and this band would've grown into. This was a band that was only just starting.. imagine what could have been! Rest in peace sweet River.
I've read articles about how much River loved making music even more than he liked to act. This song really shows you that, it's so awesome cause it takes you to another place. Real music is supposed to do that.
I can see why River Phoenix was more passionate about his music then acting. He was a great songwriter, you can hear the intricacies and the craft went into this. I kept thinking how "interesting" the sound and lyrics are...I can't remember thinking that about any other music I've heard.
It was a warm fall night in 1993, I was 13 years old, it was all over the T.V. I was heartbroken, so much potential, so much talent, you were the IT boy of my generation as far as acting. And your death was such a tragedy to me, that I have and will never forget you River. I know Joaquin will tell stories about you to Baby River to keep your legacy alive. Bless you River. 1970-1993.
The fact that we’ll never be able see what river and his band would’ve grown into is the saddest thing ever, Rest in paradise my lovely river. Forever and always.
Just watching some videos on River last night and thinking back on anime Banana Fish... just how everything was real, how River was living his life. Too speechless more to say Rest In Peace.
I fell in love with this song the first time I heard it in 1998. A friend had a few songs on cassette. Haven't heard it since. Always thought about it and finally found it. Thank you for sharing.
This is the best band ever!!! Inwish river was still here though he was sooo talented he was also such a pure soul he could make anyone happy he will forever be missed ♥️♥️♥️
Man it would've been cool to see River link up R.E.M in the future. I personally feel like River and Michael would hit it off in the studio and in life in general.
Augustine Coronado River and Michael actually were friends, along with the Chili Peppers. Michael Stipe actually owns all the rights to all Aleka's Attic music.
AWWW WOW I AM SO HAPPY TO HAVE FOUND THIS!!! THIS IS ONE AMAZZZZING SONG.. RIVER IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL ANGEL!!! WE MISS HIM DEEPLY. HE DESERVED TO LIVE HIS LIFE..I CELEBRATE HIS LIFE EVERYDAY THRU HIS MOVIES AND HIS MUSIC...THANK YOU FOR THIS TRIBUTE, I LUV IT SHOWS THE LYRICS!
I can't believe that he died it's so sad to think that he would've been so famous but now he's dead because someone gave him a drink and he didn't know what was in it... RIP Baby Boy Aug 23,1970 - Oct 31st, 1993! I can't believe he's been dead for nearly 24 years.. He had such a great life ahead of him.. 😔😔 RIP River Jude Phoenix... Fly with the angels!!
River Phoenix john frusciante dead river phoenix with speedball in a drink.i definitively believe that river phoenix didn t say that drink with speedball. very facts weren t real describe about that viper s room night.
I Am Groot. HE DIDN T KNEWN ABOUT THE POISONED COCKTEL. THE RIVER S FAMILY ACELERATED THE FINAL INVESTIGATION.THE RIVER S FAMILY LAWYER IS THE SAME FROM THE RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS, FLEA. PLEASE. THE TRUE HISTORY ABOUT RIVER S DEATH NEVER WOULD BE SPOKEN FROM THE PEOPLE PRESENTED IN 1993.
@@gabrielcavalcantegonzagaal8331 you have absolutely no idea do you? Smh . it was reported by a lot of people that night that he was off his face from either drugs or alcohol (which is fine whatever it was a night out) he Od'd he knew he had OD'd because he even said so when somebody asked if he was OK because according to witnesses he looked incredibly bad.some idiots thought it'd be a grand idea to splash cold water onto his face and give him more drugs instead of taking him straight to hospital because the people partying at the viper room themselves that night were also most likely off their faces with drugs and the viper room was notorious for drugs being taken there so they didn't take him.they helped him outside where he inevitably died.he died because of his own ignorance and because of other peoples ignorance (not bashing the guy in anyway just think its a terrible waste)
Happy birthday old friend. One of the few whos soul I heard speak, and listened to mine. The world is a worse off place without compassionate people like you. It's become so ugly out here. It seems everyday there are less and less of the beautiful people and more of the destroyers and pillagers. How our culture has changed since you left. I think you would be sad. I certainly am. They've killed off the lovers. They burned down the foundations of trust. Everyone looks the same. The radio all sounds like one song. Art is dead and caring is a dream fit only for the weak these days. In a sense death is partial to relief, because rest is better than suffering. Happy birthday my love. My friend. Just a reminder that some here still think about you and wish you were here. You made the world a brighter one.
@TRESPASSERS2011 ...aw ur comment made me cry happy tears because i always say river is the sun and endless sky. He was kind, gentle soul that should be alive, living his beautiful life with his family and friends. I can devestated till this day that he is gone ,..but he is in paradise,..in a tranquil place with serenity. River tought me virtue... i am grateful to River and thank him for all his dedication to the environment, animals and mother earth..rest in peace sweet Rio, ..
Opulence Phoenix DOESN T THINK SAD ABOUT RIVERS DEAD. ITS A TRAGICAL AND MISTERIOUS FROM THAT SITUATION . I BELIEVE RIVER WAS MURDERED BECAUSE HE SPOKEN VERY INFORMATIINS ABOUT PEDOFILY AND HOLLYWOOD CINEMATOGRAPHIC!!!!!
river was murdered with speedball in 1993. RIver telled the true about the real manipulation of cinematography industry and other abuses in one interview in 1991 .somenody wouldn t lived with this revelation. its the real motive fot river phoenix murdered.
He was given the drink, he didn't ask for it, go watch his story. He was murdered, right after, Johnny Depp, Keanu Reeves, all of his peers got elevated, God sees everything, flea really wasn't a true friend to not let him join on stage, River was too good for this world and that setting and crowd, he trusted too much, consequently, that was his downfall and led to his demise.💔
joaquim phoenix win best actor in cannes festival 2017,finally river phoenix would be happy with your bothet,joaquim. joaquim was innocent. river phoenix was murdered in 1993 because river spokenthe pedofilo revelations in industry cinematography in interview from mtv in 1991. many people would be wants deaths river phoenix.
There seems to be too much influence from religious chants ... The style reminds me of choral singing, and that's certainly because River got into music that way. With the children of God.

The Phoenix is a legend. And Aleka's Attic: what amazingly poignant, conscientious and beautiful music!!!
Just like River was...💔♾...

I'm 23 and I can't imagine how much pain he felt on his last days. 😭 RIP babe!!!
I'm 27 I get how you feel!!!!!!!
This music is so surreal.
The fact that we’ll never be able see what river and his band would’ve grown into is the saddest thing ever, Rest in paradise my lovely river. Forever and always.
Their voices are so gentle. I love this.
River was an exellent actor and a talented singer. River I love you forever. You are my angel, a sweet angel.
♡♡♡♡♡
This is easily my favorite Aleka's Attic song.
Just watching some videos on River last night and thinking back on anime Banana Fish... just how everything was real, how River was living his life. Too speechless more to say Rest In Peace.
It's good to hear his voice. I'm glad he left us with these gems. Miss you Riv, rest in peace.
PHOENIX IS A LEGEND. A GREAT HUMAN.
Words to describe how great this song is fail me. I'll just be across the way singing it forever

A buddy played this for me back in the early nineties.
Great tune.
I liked that RP was a fan of XTC.
One of the best bands ever.

He knew what was In the drink,please just enjoy the music without bringing up his death that's not how he should be remembered

Nice one💖💖💖
everyone: such a good band i miss river
me: is only here because my name is aleka and i never see it anywhere
me too:) i came for the same reason but now i love this band
Aleka is a beautiful name
Almost George Harrison-esque on those verses. I keep coming back to this song.

Wow I wrote this in 2011 time flies
Opulence Phoenix .
O
Return If Possible
Inmenso River...!!!
The lyrics are actually maybe publishable poetry at least segments of it. I love their voices. He was a good songwriter. Tragedy.
Yeah, you can find books of songs. It's fun to read those.
Luv u Rio
Opulence Phoenix DOESN T THINK SAD ABOUT RIVERS DEAD. ITS A TRAGICAL AND MISTERIOUS FROM THAT SITUATION . I BELIEVE RIVER WAS MURDERED BECAUSE HE SPOKEN VERY INFORMATIINS ABOUT PEDOFILY AND HOLLYWOOD CINEMATOGRAPHIC!!!!!
i actually like this song i am not usally no in to this type of music but i like this rip river
Why can't I find this song on Spotify?????
Great song about animal rights
@BedazzleGlitterGal thanks, Im glad you like the video :)
I wonder who his influences were. This song makes me think of The Church, or Aztec Camera, a bit of XTC perhaps.
💜💜
❤️❤️
His music is like if Death Cab for Cutie was in the 90's
2:16 best bit
me encantó esta canción
The song has a more of mystic sound and words.
man im getting a big RUSH vibe from this
river was murdered with speedball in 1993. RIver telled the true about the real manipulation of cinematography industry and other abuses in one interview in 1991
.somenody wouldn t lived with this revelation. its the real motive fot river phoenix murdered.
or it was an accident
River was an addict, sadly and as a recovering addict who has done many speedballs in my day, its so easy to OD from.
@BlackButterCrunch exactly! He specifically asked for the drink John Belushi ODd on! He killed himself.
He murdered himself!
He was given the drink, he didn't ask for it, go watch his story. He was murdered, right after, Johnny Depp, Keanu Reeves, all of his peers got elevated, God sees everything, flea really wasn't a true friend to not let him join on stage, River was too good for this world and that setting and crowd, he trusted too much, consequently, that was his downfall and led to his demise.💔
Em 31 de outubro se vao 27 anos do falecimento de river.Uma estrela que cedo se foi.
oui :)
What do you think this song is about
Animal rights. He was very passionate about Animals.
