I honestly thought I would never be able to play this. And here we are, 5 years later, I was right
-
John's probably like "ohh so that's what I did"
-
It's the fact he can sing backing vocals as well that makes him truly extraordinary
-
John Frusciante is definitely a genius musician. Not because his riffs are very hard to play, but because he turns conventional guitar playing inside out & upside down in such a uniquely melodic style. Have a very, very close listen to Blood, Sex, Sugar, Magic....... bloody epic!
-
The hardest thing about this riff is definitely endurance
-
Definitely thought it was gonna be Neon until I heard “while singing backup vocals”
-
Rules to learn your favorite riffs: 1. Exercise your picking and fretting hand every single day. 2. Learn first your chords and scales. 3. Play every day. 4. Play every day. 5. Play everyday. 6. You guessed it... Remember good guitar players weren't born with a guitar in their hands. Mastery requires practice. Learn to love the journey of learning. Love you all, keep it up.

You’re a wonderful guitar teacher. I’ve been teaching for almost 20 years now and I’m inspired by your approach. Stay cool ;)
-
Alternate picking: James hetfield has left the chat

I thought this rift was amazing before I knew all John was doing, but now I know just how godly this was. That’s why josh had such big shoes to fill. John made technical challenging, complicated rifts like this into hugely popular songs. It takes a master to do this.
-
The thing about this riff is that it makes you feel like your fingers are becoming creatures of their own and are doing the opposite of what your brain tells them to do
-
1:17 I really hate when people compare Jesus and Frusciante, like yeah, he's cool and all, but he's not Frusciante.
-
I do really love his high camera quality, his camera angles and his jacket
-
I really love how Paul really is breaking down these songs, he gives me very useful Information that I cannot find anywhere else here on YouTube
-
8:41 was so satisfying. The build up of the explanation paid off beautifully. I involuntarily smiled when he launched into the whole riff.
-
Just wanna take this comment to appreciate the work you do here In allowing us the explore deeper and more complex music, whether that'd be a riff, lick, or song! Really amazing work here as always!
-
Paul: Click that like button, do it gently. Davie504: SLAPP like NOW or I will call the police!
-
Who else remembers thinking "i might learn snow today" and 15 minutes later thinking "actually no I won't! :D"
-
This guy's videos are just different in a unique way. His voice also is so soothing
-
The riff is easy to learn but very hard to master, especially the endurance
