Yeah. It’s kinda painful for me, the nostalgia is thick & heavy. I’m glad I went to their 1st Lollapalooza & saw smaller venues. 🤔There’s still great music tho 🥰we just have to find it differently!
I was 17 when this come out,, and cannot stop feeling lots of nostalgia of what an amazing music scene i got the privilege to be part of it,,, this band today would be the best band of the decade,, back then it was amazing among another amazing bands !!
i guess Im asking randomly but does someone know of a tool to log back into an instagram account?? I was dumb lost my login password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me
The beauty of the internet it is finding music you didn't get to see or know when you were dealing with drug addiction for like 30 yrs sht i just heard jane says blew me away 2022 amazed i frikken got to live through it all man/
Yeah, I didn't realize it at first but Perkins is a superb drummer. He does a killer version of "Who Are You" by the Who on here if you want to give that a try. It's just him solo in a music store. But it's solid.
Perry Farrell is the only singer who can successfully transcend intonation. This is pure art. Be glad if you were there to experience this as it happened.
I love this the most about Perry and the way he allows his vocals to be an instrumental part of the musical composition which is so much like a surreal jazz piece. Jane’s Addiction was a musical experience I missed being a mother to a family in the 90s, but when I was able to continue in my life as my own person, I discovered them way too late! I may be fortunate to be able to get into their 90s vibe starting in my frickin’ 50s! I dream of Perry, literally like I knew him over 30 hrs ago and I was at the ocean with him and we were just hanging out and becoming friends. It freaks me out yet seems possible for some weird reason.
I actually think his voice was a little flat and pitchy this, show and most of the shows I've heard from this period, best he ever sounded was Hammerstein ballroom, on his day he had the best voice in rock for me, powerful, really cut through and already powerful sound from the other 3 ...
@@TheDreamer1980 I loved the Hammerstein ballroom version of Jane Says. I would have loved to be able to able to appreciate it back when it was actually happening and not afterwards. Very talented musicians with creative sounds and percussions. MTV Vijay’s pissed them off with their bogus interviews…lmfao! Perry hated that b.s. along with Shannon Hoon and other non pop artists back in those times!
RITUAL was, and still is, one of the most influential albums of my life. It has always found it's way into conscious and subconscious life. When I first heard it, I remember thinking it was aggressive... violent...sexy...funny...freaky...poetic...all while,musically, being as original and exciting as anything had ever heard before and since. I was 20 when it came out. I still listen to it now and I STILL get the same feelings from it years later. It also happens to be my favorite album cover of ALL TIME. Jane's Addiction is MY Led Zeppelin.
That album has such a special place in my heart. The start of the 90s. I was 18. Just started experimenting with different substances. And listening to all the latest music. We would play the album then flip the tape over and replay it all night long. I went to some amazing places in my mind. I don't have the words to express how truly special it all was.
One of my favorites from Jane's. I remember a late night in downtown Santa Barbara, California ~1997 at my friends house and in that in between that final wake and slipping into sleep state around 4am (it was late August, so it was hot and the windows were open) and a car outside at the stop light was playing 'Then She Did' and it was the mellow part when Perry sings 'pulled from a headless shell'. It was so surreal and a moment that has stuck with me all these years. My most favorite band of all time.
Even though they were falling apart as a band by this point, they were sounding incredible. Ritual de lo Habitual is one of the greatest records of all time.
Perry had these songs (3 days and Then she..) before Nothing Shocking was recorded. He Purposely held them back for the second studio album to lessen chance of a ‘sophomore slump’ chance. (Per Perry in RS interview)
I remember taking a road trip in the early 2000's in my '99 Dodge Avenger. I went to visit some cousins I hadn't seen in a while. It was a beautiful day and the windows and the sun roof were open. I listened to Jane's Addiction during the whole trip. It was a two hour drive. I had a great time driving and I especially loved this song when it played.
Three Days Then she Did Classic Girl are on the album in that order for a reason i swear on everything....sonic anointment. You get so lost in it that you miss the song transitions entirely. Takes you on a journey on some astral shit. Real talk. JA been there with me threw so many phases of my life. They a part of me, a part of who i am on some real shit. #allthefeels
@@markbabin3753 I think of course was last song on side A.. think 3 days kicked off side B @laurie s.. I just reconnected with the song and brings me back...don't know how forgot about it. I hear the feelz on those 3 songs. Much needed.
Absolutely bone chillingly beautiful a song written about a friend who committed suicide - the mysterious Xiola Blue - and then a request at the end to say hello to his mother who also committed suicide... so I understand... ;)
Avery is by far (Cliff Burton you know I kid) my fav bassist. and his style alone is light years ahead of his time. Perkins is probably the best, worst kept secret in all of rock n roll. without his foundation I couldn't imagine how different they would sound. Dave can slay and is probably one of the best guitarists ever if he was in some mainstream act... his style is so deep and he can change his tempo on a dime and it's these moments of melodramatic lows that conclude with Dave building the song into a whirlwind and then back down. so amazing. and Perry is just someone that can just stand there and it seems interesting. he could literally be a statue and ppl would still be interested in seeing what it's all about.
Perry’s instrument besides his voice is the effects that he and he alone controls throughout any Jane’s Addiction show. This performance is a great example of that. I forget where it happens in this video but he walks over to his effects knobs and drops the pitch of his voice and then brings it back up.
Anyone notice here how Perry perhaps doesn't feel as confident as he does in the modern-day. He doesn't move around as much. He seems more focused on what he's doing. What a character he is. There cannot be another like him. I love the man!
19 in those brilliant lyrics I almost fell outta my chair.. She was unhappy just as you were” my mom suffered lifelong depression . God love these gentlemen
I dunno about that. The reason they had such problems as a band (apart from all the skag, of course) is coz Perry demanded 50% of the royalties and then a further quarter of the remaining 50. What a tool.
My favorite song of theirs. Just epic, haunting, momentous, synchronous, classical and utterly profound. It builds and culminates in the peak of the greatest B side in rock music. The favt that they were disintegrating as a band at be this time reveals the depth of their music rather than obscures it.
This is the only way I can "be at this concert" since I was too young (14) back then and wasn't allowed to go, even though I badly wanted to. Now almost 30 years later, I'm finally here.
@@smkxodnwbwkdns8369 yeah mate got to agree here - Perry has never been great at singing in tune. This performance has great energy but his pitching is all over the place
WOW what a track. Im originally from England but moved to Los Angeles in the early 90s. I remember when listening to the radio back then thinking this band is the mUtts Nuts. Jayne says is probably one of my favourite alternative rock records ever . Way ahead of thier time. Brilliant. Paved the way for alot of bands.
I love Ritual so much. Ever since it came out. I lived in LA, and it just represents the whole experience of the early 90s there. I've always thought of "Side 2" of this album to be very Zeppelinesque (sorry to use an esque).
I've always thought of both Ritual and Nothings Shocking as Zeppelinesque. I remember telling some coworkers that when I was turning them on to JA. They thought I was crazy. I always put it down to their not REALLY knowing Zeppelin. Sounds snobbish, I know. Whatever. Taste is so nebulous.
dLimboStick Thank you. I don't know chords or notes, I know the feel. And "Side 2" definitely feels like it could have been outtakes from Physical Graffiti. And that's a real compliment. How many bands can even be compared to Led Zeppelin? Yep, other than Justin Bieber, no one :)
I think that if you know both bands music, you must feel that Zeppelinesque sound on Jane's Addiction. Days ago I was turning my friends to JA we started with both albums you mention and they noticed that Led Zeppelin influence.
Allan Ostermann I feel Ritual is closer the Zep's Houses of the Holy album, but again, opinion on art is so subjective. That's the beauty of art. It touches everyone differently.
Man Eric Avery’s base playing is so sweet. I’ve never heard anything like it. When Eric Avery went so did Jane’s Addiction. They kicked him out it was like slapping themselves in the face.
Paige Cat Thank you for mentioning that. My mother also committed suicide; and it's so fucked up I don't think I'll ever truly fathom it. I'm an artist, and the pain brings forth a lot of great art; but also a lot of horrible angst.
Allan Ostermann I am so sorry your mother died that way and I believe anyone who commits suicide isn't in their right mind when doing it they are depressed or worse and it is hard to fathom and it hurts too. My cousin's husband killed himself 10 years ago his two oldest kids are in their early 20's now and his son is 15 and the youngest about 10 she was 18 months when he passed she has zero memory of him and it bothers her knowing that and the son doesn't remember much. One of the older daughters was nauseous and almost hyperventilating during his funeral. He killed him b/c of finances ridiculous really and selfish of him and his reasons. I don't think all people who commit suicide are selfish in doing it cause if they have a nervous breakdown etc. they are mentally broken and need to get well again and it sadness to see any of this happen to anyone. The family suffers the worst from the aftermath. I just hope that you heal from this in your heart and knowing your mother is in heaven, poor thing it breaks my heart knowing someone like her had to feel this was the only solution God bless her and you!
When I watched this video I felt I could see Perry pouring his soul into the lyrics--at certain points his expression is of someone very immersed in the music and full of deep emotion. Then I read it was about a former love of his who died of an overdose, and also about his mother's suicide.That explained a lot about the depth of this moving performance.
Remember the Los Angeles street scene with jane's addiction? The Roxy show when they recorded their first album? Club Scream? Fenders Ball room with Dramarama? The John Anson Ford shows? Those were great days when you could see great bands at different clubs throughout Hollywood. I saw Jane's Addiction at the Coach House in San Juan Capistrano on two Saturdays back to back. Club Scream shows and the 88 to 89 new year show were my favorites. They played a show at irvine meadows with Social Distortion and X.
I remember loving Nothing’s Shocking and then waiting for Ritual de lo Habitual to be released. I was 17. So much great music during those years. We were set.
è l'unico chitarrista che suona questo genere di musica e crea questi assoli così armoniosi, ritmati e con una dinamica in crescendo... la pulizia del suono è unica, è davvero molto piacevole ascoltarlo. Gli altri dopo un po' tendono ad annoiarmi, lui no. E poi è giovane, chissà il futuro cosa gli riserva. Bravo Matteo, complimenti!
Hammerstein was awesome, but this is the most fantastical Jane's video on RUclips. The sound is so haunting and filled with unbelievable passion. The acoustics are out of this world in this video!
Best comment I ever saw on youtube was for this song, some dude mentioned at a particular part of the song, Perry with his hands up was "channeling the gods", so apt and so intense for that part of the song / video.... the band are legendary... Perry is immortal....
i was there, i was 17 at the time, so many good memories..... the entire concert was filmed and then broadcasted by an italian television called videomusic, that now is over
Perry is one of the few artists that can perform well on heroin. I still enjoy JA but I miss this kind of unhinged, reckless, spiritual shows like this.
+litch1374 band changes when "magic" is not there ... maybe they become a better musician or professional, but "magic" is a very important ingredient, and you can tell when it's gone. Likewise RHCP after californication ...
Exactly. Only, without the pretentiousness that has overcome a certain other Art Rock quartet out of Los Angeles that came after Jane’s disbanded in ‘91.
Another magical performance by the band and it sounds like an empty auditorium. I seen this tour in London. I loved them and listening and seeing these shows again on RUclips just brings all those great memories back.
Jane's Addiction always brings me back to the days in college, having "fun" with the art school girls I was dating. There will never be music like this again.
A friend asked me back in the early 90s if I could tape record this show (on VHS! MTV 120 minutes ow yeah!) and I had never heard of Jane's Addiction and this mesmerizing figure called Perry Farellseen, but the band and their enigmatic lead singer with such crushing charisma truly was a revelation to me! Felt paralyzed and considered the show as a gift from God and Satan joining forces, I listened and watched it over and over (as in 100 times till the tape) till my mom asked: shouldn't you study for your anatomy exam for tomorrow? I was a med student back then who was totally into this kind of miraculous eye-opening Art; later on I got lost as a fully trained MD in Detroit Techno and its many following waves. My lovely mom was wondering why she had sent me to piano lessons from the age of 7 till 19. Still love Chopin and Rachmaninov of course! Wow, speaking of a broad musical eclectic education if I look back to all of it right now... 🙂
The best Janes song out there. This performance cannot be topped. Been listening to Janes for 20yrs. Perry"s voice isnt the same now but he is still the man. Along with Dave,Eric and Stephen of course there would be no Janes Addiction without them. Flea did a decent job subbing for Eric but the magic isnt there. The Hammerstein performance is great too.
SO glad i bought this Bootleg CD from a South Street RecordShop in '91__ JANE's, Live in MILAN,__1990___ a prized possession, RUclips can't TOUCH the Entire incendiary show.... their PRIME years, for real
I drift back to the times when this was so relevant in my life......what a time to be alive..
Yeah. It’s kinda painful for me, the nostalgia is thick & heavy. I’m glad I went to their 1st Lollapalooza & saw smaller venues. 🤔There’s still great music tho 🥰we just have to find it differently!
For me best times in my life when I discovered this in 92'
I was 17 when this come out,, and cannot stop feeling lots of nostalgia of what an amazing music scene i got the privilege to be part of it,,, this band today would be the best band of the decade,, back then it was amazing among another amazing bands !!
Your lucky I was 12 and didn't discover them till 92' and they weren't a band so sad
it breaks my heart to know we will never get this music ever again. you can’t replicate this.. every song was a masterpiece.
Yep
I love them. I cant describe it. I love 90s LA everything is just perfect. Every single note that Dave is playing just feels like a heroin snort.
They’re touring now (munus eric a) Still amazing after ALL these years! Go see em!
@@cinnamonkejaro plus eric
Yes it's really sad we don't get this anymore
Magical. What else can you say. Jane's were a one of a kind band. Nobody can touch what they were at their peak.

This is more powerful and more haunting than the studio version.
Beautiful and personal.
Haunting...
...yes, that’s the word.
Thank you 🙏
Way better imo, I listen to this one more often than the studio.
Dave's guitar playing has a sadness to it, this is hauntingly beautiful
Indeed...
People go on about Eric being the brains but his bass parts were nothing without Dave's guitar, the real emotion comes from Dave and perrys voice
I still think this is one if not THE best piece Jane's did...the sound, the story...astounding.

Man Eric Avery’s base playing is so sweet. I’ve never heard anything like it. When Eric Avery went so did Jane’s Addiction. They kicked him out it was like slapping themselves in the face.
He will forever be the true genius of janes. And ironically they are making new album
Really …. Ummmm no not that genius actually
I listen to this song when I want to get lost in the 90's
God, I love this song!!!!!!!
Never gets old. Today they are still one of the true great rock bands of all time.
Me too! Sad tale about the suicide of his mother and the o.d. of a female friend/lover of his that o.d. in the late 80's.
Paige Cat Thank you for mentioning that. My mother also committed suicide; and it's so fucked up I don't think I'll ever truly fathom it. I'm an artist, and the pain brings forth a lot of great art; but also a lot of horrible angst.
Allan Ostermann I am so sorry your mother died that way and I believe anyone who commits suicide isn't in their right mind when doing it they are depressed or worse and it is hard to fathom and it hurts too. My cousin's husband killed himself 10 years ago his two oldest kids are in their early 20's now and his son is 15 and the youngest about 10 she was 18 months when he passed she has zero memory of him and it bothers her knowing that and the son doesn't remember much. One of the older daughters was nauseous and almost hyperventilating during his funeral. He killed him b/c of finances ridiculous really and selfish of him and his reasons. I don't think all people who commit suicide are selfish in doing it cause if they have a nervous breakdown etc. they are mentally broken and need to get well again and it sadness to see any of this happen to anyone. The family suffers the worst from the aftermath. I just hope that you heal from this in your heart and knowing your mother is in heaven, poor thing it breaks my heart knowing someone like her had to feel this was the only solution God bless her and you!
Me Too
The most underrated Jane's song IMO. "Now the nameless dwell, they hold the key and turn the knob." One of the greatest lines ever written.
This is so good. Even without the instrumentation I can still hear it. And yes, magical
I WAS THERE. GREAT BANDS, GREAT TIMES!!!
I love this song gives me chills every time...its just magical 👑👑👑💜💜💜💜💕💞💞💞
This is the BEST version of this song!! Drugs particularly Herion is a Hell of a drug!!
When I watched this video I felt I could see Perry pouring his soul into the lyrics--at certain points his expression is of someone very immersed in the music and full of deep emotion. Then I read it was about a former love of his who died of an overdose, and also about his mother's suicide.That explained a lot about the depth of this moving performance.
It's hard to believe Ritual is 25 years old this year. Where has the time gone....
+Opel LaFleur ... nostalgic for youth may be egoistic ... nostalgic for intense music is a must !
Remember the Los Angeles street scene with jane's addiction? The Roxy show when they recorded their first album? Club Scream? Fenders Ball room with Dramarama? The John Anson Ford shows? Those were great days when you could see great bands at different clubs throughout Hollywood. I saw Jane's Addiction at the Coach House in San Juan Capistrano on two Saturdays back to back. Club Scream shows and the 88 to 89 new year show were my favorites. They played a show at irvine meadows with Social Distortion and X.
who do you say that !
Opel LaFleur where has good music gone? This is so good it hurts to hear the shit that gets put out now
I remember loving Nothing’s Shocking and then waiting for Ritual de lo Habitual to be released. I was 17. So much great music during those years. We were set.
This is just so beautiful!!!
i cannot describe how good this is. MY GOD
Simply brilliant... This band was simply brilliant.....
è l'unico chitarrista che suona questo genere di musica e crea questi assoli così armoniosi, ritmati e con una dinamica in crescendo... la pulizia del suono è unica, è davvero molto piacevole ascoltarlo. Gli altri dopo un po' tendono ad annoiarmi, lui no. E poi è giovane, chissà il futuro cosa gli riserva. Bravo Matteo, complimenti!
Hammerstein was awesome, but this is the most fantastical Jane's video on RUclips. The sound is so haunting and filled with unbelievable passion. The acoustics are out of this world in this video!
Most incredible song of Jane's ever!!!
Brilliant...nothin more to be said...
one of the BEST songs to listen to while on mushrooms...!!!!
How can someone not like this song?
This is pure magic....
What a great great song. The opening part is lush and hypnotic rythmn, space and texture.
Best comment I ever saw on youtube was for this song, some dude mentioned at a particular part of the song, Perry with his hands up was "channeling the gods", so apt and so intense for that part of the song / video.... the band are legendary... Perry is immortal....
i was there, i was 17 at the time, so many good memories.....
the entire concert was filmed and then broadcasted by an italian television called videomusic, that now is over
Perry is one of the few artists that can perform well on heroin. I still enjoy JA but I miss this kind of unhinged, reckless, spiritual shows like this.
+litch1374 band changes when "magic" is not there ... maybe they become a better musician or professional, but "magic" is a very important ingredient, and you can tell when it's gone. Likewise RHCP after californication ...
He was a let down mate, flat...the musicians were bang on though
He wasn't flat at all, just more laid back. His voice was still amazing!
The downside of achieving everything.
Adam Robillard You said it. Nirvana found out what that was like on an even bigger scale.
When rock meets art.
Exactly. Only, without the pretentiousness that has overcome a certain other Art Rock quartet out of Los Angeles that came after Jane’s disbanded in ‘91.
Another magical performance by the band and it sounds like an empty auditorium. I seen this tour in London. I loved them and listening and seeing these shows again on RUclips just brings all those great memories back.
Jane's Addiction always brings me back to the days in college, having "fun" with the art school girls I was dating. There will never be music like this again.
A friend asked me back in the early 90s if I could tape record this show (on VHS! MTV 120 minutes ow yeah!) and I had never heard of Jane's Addiction and this mesmerizing figure called Perry Farellseen, but the band and their enigmatic lead singer with such crushing charisma truly was a revelation to me!
Felt paralyzed and considered the show as a gift from God and Satan joining forces, I listened and watched it over and over (as in 100 times till the tape) till my mom asked: shouldn't you study for your anatomy exam for tomorrow?
I was a med student back then who was totally into this kind of miraculous eye-opening Art; later on I got lost as a fully trained MD in Detroit Techno and its many following waves.
My lovely mom was wondering why she had sent me to piano lessons from the age of 7 till 19. Still love Chopin and Rachmaninov of course!
Wow, speaking of a broad musical eclectic education if I look back to all of it right now... 🙂
The best Janes song out there. This performance cannot be topped. Been listening to Janes for 20yrs. Perry"s voice isnt the same now but he is still the man. Along with Dave,Eric and Stephen of course there would be no Janes Addiction without them. Flea did a decent job subbing for Eric but the magic isnt there. The Hammerstein performance is great too.
Kristin Tay Look at the live videos from 86 and 87.
Hammerstein was theee best live performance evet.
SO glad i bought this Bootleg CD from a South Street RecordShop in '91__ JANE's, Live in MILAN,__1990___ a prized possession, RUclips can't TOUCH the Entire incendiary show.... their PRIME years, for real
Omfg. Perfection
If we don't get a "LIKE/DISLIKE" count, can't we geet a "LOVE" button?! 🥰🤘✌
Damn! This song makes me so sad. :'(
Crazy how he can perform this song over and over so we can enjoy it while it has clear meaning to him.
The height of their power. They were the best band in the world at this time. Everyone wanted to be them. 👍🏻😊
