He's the one who showed the true meaning behind 'Modern Love'. It's produced as a happy, let's dance-like, pop song. But it's actually such a deep and heavy love-song by a very depressed man.
If John walks on the streets all over world with his guitar alone he could do a " PIED STRINGER" (Pied piper) lol..he could could pull a big crowd following his tunes
I'm so pumped he's back in RHCP, but I really hope he does some shows like this again! We should at least get some quick covers in between RHCP songs though

Wow...this cover is probably so far the one I heard from John that changed the most vibe of the original version!!! And it totally nailed it, big time!! That power , anger, and sadness...pure beauty.
I would be interested in that! If you like, and if you remember, you could send it to me when you're ready. Or notify me when you put it online. :) That cover is also great.
Everybody shut the fuck up. RHCP is one of the greatest bands ever. No one can surpass their talent, charisma, and passion for doing what they do. Now everyone join hands and fucking agree that no matter what RHCP will be RHCP and will be fucking gods forever.
hey i dont fuckin care if u vote for poor comment ok? all im saying that hes not good in acoustic guitar...im playing on el and classic guitar eather so i know what im talkin' about!
this video IS definitely atrocious! maybe he sings better when he is not stoned as can be, but this remembered me of "popstars", which is a german version of american idol...
and he is an awesome vocalist. just because he doesn't sing classically "well" like other people doesn't make him bad, in fact it makes him better. original and real.
you didn't understand what I wanted to say...I never said that he is the gratest guitarist, I said he is one of the gratest guitarist ever...I don't give a shit about your teacher and you...in fact I don't know way I'm trying to explain all this shit...but if you and ur teacher are so good in acoustic guitar way anybody heared about you ?...and music is not all about skill, you can do something beautiful with just 2 chords if you fell the music and you know how to transmit ur feelings...
I disagree, Anthony is an essential part of the band. ANthony wrote so many great lyrics and i realy can't imagine John singing a song like Sir Psycho. Also with John as lead singer there wouldn't be any great Backing vocals anymore which would be very sad. John is a great singer for his own songs, but i don't think he would realy fit as lead singer for the chilis
Trust me, you don't know what ur talking about ;) he is one of the best guitarist ever...maybe this is not the best song he ever made...maybe it's not the best record ever made...but you should watch in other circumsatnce and if you don't like him, meens that ur not a true guitarist...i'm a guitarist too and I know how to value the true music ;)
i love duran duran. don't mind listening to them at all. i think i will. but you should understand that i have an opinion and i say he sucks. no need for you to get upset about it. or, maybe the truth really does hurt!
uhmm can anyone tell me please how these torrents work?i dowloaded them and i can listen to em,but i cant watch the video along >.< can you help me?would be soooo nice!!! thanks
i've been known to, mate. but that doesn't negate the fact that john sucks hard on this cover of the song. he'd do better to stick with playing the skin flute! cheers!
Why are people slagging this off? It's a totally original cover... if yopu dig a little deeper, you'll find out theres a lot more to John Frusciante than meets the eye.
i've been trying, for a while, to put my finger on a good description of what john seems to be doing with his brilliant 'solo' gigs midway thru rhcp shows and i think i got it !! he's busking ...
Hey u2fanedge The reason you dont like this is because John has the one thing thats the most important thing in music...SOUL. And thats why you dont like it.
well you need not say it here. If it were the truth no one would even know who he was and he wouldn't be hailed as a god by so many people. So you're wrong.
If in 20 years someone gave me a time machine to go back in time and stop the apocalypse, it would be very tempting to play hooky for a while. Here and then.
@codyisme0610 have you heard the footage from the viper room when he played back in 97? that is a real good presentation but he is not kind there! that is great though
For all you guys that say this is better than Geva's cover, are you deaf? I hadn't heard of Geva when I listened to this, so I searched his cover out of interest, he put's his own spin on it but John here is just singing and playing a carbon copy of Bowies song and is off key at some parts, he's probably stoned too I love John's energy, but this cover isn't in any way humanely possibly better than Geva Alon's

There’s a bit of a painful tone behind Bowie in the original version imo
@@gab2876yeah same, just listening to the lyrics you can tell it’s sad.
i was there that night... this was the moment i felt so small!!!! one of the best concerts ever been
Really jealous
You lucky fucker
Why did you feel small?
Looks like I'm in the genuinely artistic part of RUclips again...
docterphreak yes i know exactly what you mean
Real artists
Good. Come back :)
John has introduced me to so many songs... And for that, I am grateful.
no one is as intense as frusciante
2020, who’d think we’d be here today?
I knew id be here with you Kaitlin.
I didn't know but I'm glad I am
2024, me.
I love John's cover of this song...he puts so much feel behind it...
When i first heard this song, i didn't know it's name, so when he sang the part in the end, i taught he is singing "Mother in law", not "Modern Love"
both equally as painful
The bridge that he plays at 1:40... i just lost my mind there...
Rip David Bowie ❤️❤️😭😭
+Lily Christine was listening to this when I heard the news, spooky.
I love how John sings...he throws his soul with his voice
Precious cover!!
Whose gran
If John walks on the streets all over world with his guitar alone he could do a " PIED STRINGER" (Pied piper) lol..he could could pull a big crowd following his tunes
I'm so pumped he's back in RHCP, but I really hope he does some shows like this again! We should at least get some quick covers in between RHCP songs though
He did Danny’s song when I saw them this year :) best part of the show
It never gets old listening to this cover, his version is great. Really highlights how much of a great song it is.
Man I'd love to be friends of John so I could hear lots of songs covered by him
Amazing Performance! Love John and David Bowie.
Sometimes you find a light in the darkness... This man is the light..
I know when to go out
And when to stay in
Get things done
I catch a paper boy
But things don't really change
I'm standing in the wind
But I never wave bye-bye
But I try
I try
There's no sign of life
It's just the power to charm
I'm lying in the rain
But I never wave bye-bye
But I try
I try
Never going to fall for
(Modern Love)
Walks beside me
(Modern Love)
Walks on by
(Modern Love)
Gets me to the Church on Time
(Church on Time)
Terrifies me
(Church on Time)
Makes me party
(Church on Time)
Puts my trust in God and Man
(God and Man)
No confessions!
(God and Man)
No religion
(God and Man)
Don't believe
In Modern Love
It's not really work
It's just the power to charm
I'm still standing in the wind
But I never wave bye bye
But I try
I try
Never going to fall for
(Modern Love)
Walks beside me
(Modern Love)
Walks on by
(Modern Love)
Gets me to the Church on Time
(Church on Time)
Terrifies me
(Church on Time)
Makes me party
(Church on Time)
Puts my trust in God and Man
(God and Man)
No confessions!
(God and Man)
No religion
(God and Man)
Don't believe
In Modern Love
Modern love - Modern love - Modern love - Modern love
Modern love - Modern love - Modern love - Modern love
- Modern love
I wish i saw this live... i wasnt even born yet at that time:-( this cover makes me cry because of how beautiful it is
So much pain and joy coming from John..
My heart and soul are forever with this angel
🖐️
1:41 just tears at my soul.. what sweet sounds. god this is a beautiful song!
this is amazing...pure feel.
Wow...this cover is probably so far the one I heard from John that changed the most vibe of the original version!!!
And it totally nailed it, big time!! That power , anger, and sadness...pure beauty.
John's the one that fucks with his reverb for acoustic sets. That's the way he likes it, and I think it sounds great!
John Frusciante, you are amazing. Happy Birthday.
I had to log in just to say... Amazing!!!
Frusci ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
one of bowies favourite covers, so he said
what a guitar god
I love the screaming voice
The greatest musician of all time covering the greatest British musician of all time.
No gimmicks, no distractions.... only a man spilling his heart out for music. Love it :-)
What john does with this song is just as big as the song itself
This is the -best- version of the song I've heard. Ever.
MOTHER LAW MOTHER LAW MOTHER LAW MOTHER LAW
so sad...i love that solo !! i need to learn how to play this music
Maybe, if it helps, I tabbed it out once. It's on Ultimate Guitar: tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/j/john_frusciante/modern_love_tab.htm
+Roland Broos
thanks dude...I've already learned how to play this ;)
Alright!
"new dawn fades" is the next one haha
I would be interested in that! If you like, and if you remember, you could send it to me when you're ready. Or notify me when you put it online. :) That cover is also great.
blows my fucking mind
Everybody shut the fuck up. RHCP is one of the greatest bands ever. No one can surpass their talent, charisma, and passion for doing what they do. Now everyone join hands and fucking agree that no matter what RHCP will be RHCP and will be fucking gods forever.
hey i dont fuckin care if u vote for poor comment ok? all im saying that hes not good in acoustic guitar...im playing on el and classic guitar eather so i know what im talkin' about!
It's from the David Bowie album called Let's Dance
this video IS definitely atrocious! maybe he sings better when he is not stoned as can be, but this remembered me of "popstars", which is a german version of american idol...
God and man
and he is an awesome vocalist. just because he doesn't sing classically "well" like other people doesn't make him bad, in fact it makes him better. original and real.
This is unbelievable

he makes this song look easy to play
I love the ending, pure amazing
He's the most beautiful man on earth. So sexy, talented, intelligent and kind. An amazing musician.
He's my dream husband I've been obsessed with him since 1989
i love duran duran. don't mind listening to them at all. i think i will. but you should understand that i have an opinion and i say he sucks. no need for you to get upset about it. or, maybe the truth really does hurt!
...quasi quasi preferisco questa a quella di David Bowie! ...mamma mia

beauty at its best.

well you need not say it here. If it were the truth no one would even know who he was and he wouldn't be hailed as a god by so many people. So you're wrong.
I notice that he always covers the most difficult songs, vocally I mean, whilst playing guitar anyway..
THAT'S SO FUCKED UP. AND THAT'S BECAYUSE I LOVE FRUSCIANTE, IMAGINE IF I DIDN'T...
However, why the hell am I trying to argue with a clearly infallible music critic such as yourself - "Id give it a B".
how is the guitar amplified cause i dont see a mic in front of it and its not an acoustic electric! just wandering
I CANT STOP WATCHING THIS. john delivers music in its PUREST form.
I don't believe you know what grammar is, much less music.
I want this on fucking vinyl and I‘d play it all day long
i agree with mabryzealand its not his cover...
its the cover that the folk artist Geva Alon did
OMFG my two fav things
dnt care wat u say but he is good here espec. the echo helps it to b good n this song is cool
much better than original. i think i'm in love.
It's like he likes all the same music as me.
Worst thing to come from a U2 fan I reckon...
i love how he plays this song on the guitar
Estou construíndo um castelo de palitos no meio da tempestade
Esperando um sinal da Canis Majoris
so much raw emotion when he plays and sings. love it.
que buen cover, piel de gallina
He so cute and i think he sings better than anthony frm rhcp.
still recovering from injection site ulcers on his arm
Não importa de onde venha ou de quem venha, o que importa é que funcione
murderers is a must hear
thanks :)
the best one. top 1
does anyone know which guitar he plays here?
yeah hes the god but only in el.guitar
I think he doesnt have a feel when hes playing on acoustic guitar.
Best non-sax sax solo ever!
haha or you could have just told him..
Por que os próximos nos machucam tanto ?
I'm glad you're the only one out of all the comments that actually knows something of the Chili's. Thanks man.
You better believe you're real!
xxx
he is amazing!
If in 20 years someone gave me a time machine to go back in time and stop the apocalypse, it would be very tempting to play hooky for a while. Here and then.
@codyisme0610 have you heard the footage from the viper room when he played back in 97? that is a real good presentation but he is not kind there! that is great though
Geva alon has nothing on this
@IfearGuitars fuckin crazy
I think that in this concert his mic has a reverb too high
Eu preciso me libertar
For all you guys that say this is better than Geva's cover, are you deaf?
I hadn't heard of Geva when I listened to this, so I searched his cover out of interest, he put's his own spin on it but John here is just singing and playing a carbon copy of Bowies song and is off key at some parts, he's probably stoned too
I love John's energy, but this cover isn't in any way humanely possibly better than Geva Alon's
Great fucking great
