Jane' s Addiction...

Strays is absolutely amazing. Probably the best album I have heard in years. Given the amount and variety of music I listen to in a year, that is really saying a lot.
 
AIC is dead on the water without Janes. God some people's inability to grasp roots and levels of influence in the music they listen to bugs the shit out of me. Get a fucking clue. I loved Layne and company, but they couldn't have done jack shit without emerging on a scene post Soundgarden, Janes etc...
 
wish I was ocean size
they cannot move you
no one tries
no one pulls you
out from your hole
like a tooth aching a jawbone...

i was made with a heart of stone
to be broken
with one hard blow
i've seen the ocean
break on the shore
come together with no harm done...

it ain't easy living...

i want to be
as deep
as the ocean
mother ocean

some people tell me
home is in the sky
in the sky lives a spy
i want to be more like the ocean

no talking
all action...
no talking
all action...
 
jane's addiction rules. They're one of my favorite bands. For a good laugh, get a hold of the "Gift" video that Perry Farrell's g/f at the time did. It's pretty cool.
 
Jane's Addiction are washed up and terrible live. Sean and I saw them (free radio station tickets - we didn't PAY) in Vancouver and Perry was so fucked up you couldn't understand him. It was incredibly lame. They had a bunch of distracting topless chicks and hoop-twirling guys but it didn't make up for how bad they are.
The only good parts:
Stereo MCs opening (awesome)
Dave Navarro playing a solo song
Laughing at the hippy trance dancers behind us

janes was cool in '89-'92...in 2003...no f'n thx...
look at it this way, from a point of view such as mine.
Wouldn't it be good listening to someone who never knew who they were or ever listened to them?

To much Heroin does that to your music talents.

Early JA fucking rocked though. I didn't like Porno for Pyros that much, and the new JA just plain sucks.
