John Frusciante - Afterglow Lyrics






Undenied
Death before life

You're in my place again
Echoes deprive us enough
You're in my wailing
Decide what it means to work in fire
Decide what it means to work in fire

Shadows casting bodies
Who knows which way things will go?
All shifting images
Upside down to be upright
Upside down, you'll make them cry

Death before life

Another place again
You and my loneliness speak now
I realize
I don't have much further to go

The afterglow

Life running backwards, nailed up and freezing

Put the past before you

Down is my placement
No place out there I have to be
Lost is where I hide (and)
And I've no reason to be found

To resound
From no sound to resound

    The first two minutes of this song put me on a trance, I’ve never heard anything so groovy

  10. 4.... w....

    this is genius work, always been John Frusciante fan, he was always in front of the time, and such a music genius
    this is the way where modenr music should go, a mix of everything :)

  11. I.... D....

    this song makes me want to leave this hell hole and wander around monterey for the rest of my time. i would if i could

  12. M.... ....

    is flea at bass in this album? i mean the bass is insane and i associate it to flea`s style

    M.... ....

    @Callampa ProduccionesThe guitar riffs and lines throughout the album scream of frusciante's taste and style.Plus Klinghoffer wasn't playing guitar as much back in those days.

    M.... ....

    @MaidenBeMyGuide what drugs you taking? klinghoffer has played guitar throughout his whole career

    M.... ....

    @Renegade Master Your point is? You might wanna read the comment again before you reply.

    M.... ....

    @MaidenBeMyGuide uh.... wut

    Still never found any better music than the collaboration works of john and josh.

  16. D.... G....

    I like how josh klinghoffer sounds in the first part

  17. J.... G....

    I've listened to this song more than any other John Frusciante song. It's amazing.

  18. p.... w....

    i was biting my tongue trying to find out , what this rhythm reminds me and i think there is something similar in the
    "gorillaz song "dare
    incredible how creativity diffuse to different conscious
    at the same time

    p.... w....

    I see it! John touched on this pretty thoroughly in his "My heart is a drum machine" interview. The idea that creativity isn't something exclusive to any one person at any time, in the sense that you're not just pulling an idea or a concept out of thin air. But rather discover it by tapping into this force. I'm paraphrasing of course, but yeah.. I find the whole idea very interesting.

    p.... w....

    Spooks - Jonny Greenwood (just the guitar)

    p.... w....

    'Never did no harm' 'death before life'

    p.... w....

    yee, exactly!

    - I like your comment, it makes me think
    gosh, i love jf music

    p.... w....

    peanut with a cashew nice reference, blur, gorillaz, rocket juice and the moon, so good...

  19. D.... ....

    What effect is used at 3:30 ?

    D.... ....

    I think it's a guitar with a delay effect

  20. p.... ....

    this is fucking beautiful. i love life, thank you john and josh. you are gonna make me cry

  21. k.... ....

    This composition is extremely beautiful! It's got everything yet you can't classify it to a specific genre, great project. Fru's lyrics are just unique

  22. C.... ....

    I never can't get enough of JF!

  23. s.... ....

    m.... ....

  27. R.... l....

    John Frusciante composes one of the most beautiful feelings translated into music that we are blessed to hear.

  28. a.... ....

    Put the past before you.

  31. L.... ....

    Dude, your mother is awesome.

  32. I.... ....

    This incredible piece of music called 'Sphere in the heart of silence' was created in 6 days ... as a musician this makes me ... well, kinda jeallous. Haha.

  33. n.... ....

    mmm.. just saying.. I don't think he was talking in spanish... though I speak it! so thanks for loving spanish language ! :D
    *btw.. Love John and Josh's stuff... I'm looking for more of their music :)

  34. M.... ....

    I love entering that crazy ass space when you really feel frusciantes music

    M.... ....

    Ass space

  35. S.... K....

    I somehow would've loved to describe my experience of his muse similar to this if had chosen to express my feelings to it in words but not in music for myself, thanks a lot to have come to read this! =)

  36. j.... ....

    that's true, but I love this kind of music..simply music...music music music music (sorry, I cannot have have a piece of conversation in spanish, just few words, but I love spanish :) )

  37. L.... T....

    si! es una bela cancion!
    mas me lembra dance music! (:

  38. R.... R....

    THIS GOOD

  39. W.... E....

    You do know Josh was with the band when they recorded the Stadium Arcadium album, just not officially..

  40. j.... ....

    no se, pero se puede classificar como...musica, vale? :)

  41. j.... ....

    you are so right. I love this song and I love this sound, so deep, so weird, so...music.

  42. J.... ....

    Deaf People Like

  43. L.... T....

    essa musica e classificada como dance music ou trance??

  44. S.... ....

    Actually, yes! a lot of purple and pink and green.

  45. C.... ....

    Maybe Asperger more than synesthesia. I really think that he is possibly Asperger, but they usually do not use drugs.. Idk

  46. R.... ....

    don´t tell me...

  47. W.... ....

    green is the color of life! :-)

  48. j.... ....

    a lot of johns music makes me think of green, i have no idea why lol

    j.... ....

    This album gives me green and grey vibes too

  49. m.... ....

    I like when there's 1 person for no ;)

  50. t.... ....

    synesthesia

  51. J.... S....

    totally. not with this record, but i always think of green when listening to curtains, and changes of light if that make sense.

  52. D.... ....

    @mizzuksi think of unusually weird things when i listen to music like this so i know what you mean haha

  53. b.... ....

    if that was some dickhead like beyonce on that it would be number 1

  54. N.... ....

    Does this album remind anyone else of the colours purple and green? It's weird, like, I dunno how to explain it.

  55. b.... ....

    of the 6 album series i listened to this the least. i don't know why, it's amazing!

  56. M.... W....

    @DannyBaxter24 But he is saying, you cant replace John, In fact you cant replace anyone with anyone else because everyone is unique to their own and never replaceable.

  57. U.... ....

    my mother bought this record for me. I LOVE MY MAMA!

  58. D.... ....

    @babbersabber But what he is saying is, should John not be around, he would take Josh as a replacement, effectively saying Josh is second to John, because Frusciante is amazing, but he is just admiring Josh.

  59. b.... ....

    @DannyBaxter24 Sry. You can't replace John. He has his own style to play the guitar.

  60. D.... ....

    @babbersabber Woow, back off man. I think he is trying to say if someone would have to replace John, then Josh would always be next up.

  61. b.... ....

    @rhcpbeatle lol. fail.

  62. r.... ....

    John was born to make music.
    Josh was made to replace him.

    r.... ....

    I want to hear a jk solo career

  63. R.... T....

    Awesome, so creative! I'm gonna use this song in my hoopdance class!

  64. R.... ....

    I still cant believe how I found Frusciante... it all was by mistake when I found on suggestions the song Cant stop... then I started listening to RHCP and then Frusciante... my life would be sooo different without them

  65. A.... M....

    @Jessehuber92 IMO, his solo career is incredible. Yeah, maybe he doesn't play funk now, but what he plays now can really touch some hearts. And I think that's the only thing that really matters is to create a link between people and your music. So, in my opinion, he succeeded in doing what he does: music.

  66. J.... E....

    @Jessehuber92 Please go deaf.

  67. J.... E....

    @Jessehuber92 AHAHAHAHAH, please just stop talking and go listen to Nickelback or something, leave real music for people who actually utilize their brains.

  68. J.... E....

    @420llamaman lol...please stop smoking weed. it's making you real dumb.

  69. J.... E....

    @87killacam I really wish that John, Flea, Josh, and Chad would make an album with just deep, intense, edgy, funky, creepy, jams. Just pure music.

  70. 8.... ....

    john frusciante and josh klinghoffer click so well together... would've been interesting if john stayed with rhcp and josh joined. A lot of great pieces like this could have been created

  71. l.... ....

    Discovering the universe of John Frusciante was like being reborn musically - It's on a different level, you can't describe it verbally - its just pure raw energy and passion.

  72. E.... P....

    Perfect!

  73. S.... ....

    @Angrykitty19 That's often the cue for a moron to step forward

  74. M.... ....

    @WeaponX1986 what about the empyrean?!! my fav album ever released by any human(s).

  75. h.... ....

    @Jessehuber92 that makes no sense. "without anthony chad and flea he isnt himself" dude that is the weirdest comment ive read all day this is the music that expresses who he really is. hes said that most the music he made with the chili peppers he felt he had to write that he felt anthony and flea expected to fit with the music they were making. did you ever stop to think that hes made eight solo records i think by himself in the past 10 yrs and only 3 with the chili peppers. this is his soul

  76. M.... ....

    @420llamaman its still similar in length to most albums with 12-15 tracks... and considering he released 4 albums in 2004 this being one of them i'd say yes he is outdoing himself. idiot

  77. K.... ....

    there's always at least one motherfucker who ruins everything...

  78. A.... ....

    0 dislikes :)

  79. B.... ....

    @420llamaman quality over quantity.

  80. t.... ....

    i have been listening to john solo since 1998 and in between rhcp and he is so magical. i am thankful he is alive and makes the music he makes because it pretty much changed my life. ps this record is awesome with josh.

  81. a.... c....

    what a cheap fuckin album. 7 songs wow, dont outdo yourselves guys

  82. L.... ....

    @TheGreymusic But this track was written completely byJosh Klinghoffer and he plays all the intruments. John wrote the lyrics and "just" sings on it.

  83. j.... h....

    @markbooher1 its really johns singing that throws the whole thing off without Anthony, Flea, and chad he is not himself

  84. j.... h....

    @markbooher1 you think you know better than me but dum dum dum you don't his solo songs lack 90% of the skill technicality and rhythm his riffs in rhcp have on top of that learn English before you argue dumb ass its called "listen to rhcp" not "hear to rhcp" jackass

  85. d.... ....

    too good

  86. M.... B....

    @Jessehuber92 you have to respect different types of music. john is a very creative person that is not tied down to one genre, he is a musical genius and i love every aspect of his music, both solo, with the chili peppers, and other collaborations.

  87. K.... R....

    thats one of his greatest eve!

  88. j.... h....

    RHCP is my favorite band ever but john is making a mistake with this solo career shit its kinda lame!

  89. T.... ....

    John was born to make music.

  90. k.... ....

    One of my favourite song !
    I remember how happy i was when i bought the record !

  91. D.... B....

    Can't believe they've taken this down from Spotify... really need some cash to buy it now!
