the acoustic version isn't enough, i need him to play in my living room.

I swear this is the only musician who has healed my soul a million times since childhood. Pure gold.

I think we all can concur on something: John saved us from our saddest times.

I was going to say 'how have i just discovered this' but with Johns music, it finds you at the time when you need it so im just happy to be here.

I know we all have problems in life, we all struggle with certain things and now it's one of those moments for me, I'm not having a good time and I just feel bad and my mind is full of things that I prefer not to talk with anyone, so I'm here listening to this beautiful version of this great album and I don't know how to describe how magical and healing this is to me. And I'm pretty sure that my tears now are not because of sadness but nothing else than being able of feeling calm and in peace with myself again despite everything. I close my eyes and I imagine John playing his guitar and singing-probably with Josh by his side-while I listen to this pure, majestic work and I feel happy, as simple as that. It works as some kind of medicine, I hope its effects last forever.

He released this album on the Internet for FREE about 15 years ago. I remember I was so excited at that time because I felt it revolutionary.

josh's voice in Omission is pure gold and innocence

Omission is possibly the best duet ever.

The RHCP have been my favorite band for awhile, but now I realize that I like Johns solo work a bit more

I never express my feeling towards my family nor to my girlfriend, whenever I fell low i just open KZfaq and search John solo work after couple of songs like CARVEL, OMISSION,TIME GOES BACK I fell like i've heard all my problems from him in form of everlasting music.Yeah man John music sometimes get into my tears i'm just 23 thank you God for not taking John early

‘Every person alive is everyone who’s died’ - I like that; Frusciante’s lyrics & experience often show us we need not fear death anymore.

John has divine strumming feel.

John saved me from my hardest times

The duality of pain and pleasure

this kind of music can never be a backround music too intense

The more I dig into music the more I come back to RHCP and John.

Today I'm at the lowest in my life. The one who said to love me forever left me. It's like every song in this album was made for me. I Love you always, Dayane.

Omg Josh's voice is so sweet

anytime there's no ground below you, youre in the sky

I love John's music, and Josh's backing vocals give it another great dimension

This is like hearing a more artistic version of RHCP... You can clearly see John's huge influence and contribution for RHCP greatest hits

I always wonder if anyone feels the same as I do at the hardest and most crowded moments of my life. Every time that I listen to this guy, I get my answer and then I find my hope in the future.

"Going nowhere's the only clear shot, at being somewhere the fates think you're not" this, this is one of the greatest lines I ever read in my whole life (regarding any type of music and style) Frusciante is extremely rich in philosophy and has an amazing mind. All my love for his music and Josh's too , incredible song, best of all albums

-Dad, ¿Why is my sister called Rose? -Because your mother loves Roses -Oh OK, thanks dad -You´re welcome, Shadows Collide With People Acoustic [Full Album]

I wish I met a person who likes John's muisic as much as I do , I feel like that person would have better understnading of me, would sympathise with me, but it is so hard to find people that like this kind of music nowadays. I don't know why I feel like that ,though. The fact is that I love this, and John is my favorite guitarrist, one of my favorite albuns made by John, even though it is really difficult picking one. I wish you all a good day and a fulfilling life! Best regards from Brazil!

This guy is a freaking genius!

1:28 *sigh* .....2:10 What this man can do with his voice to convey pain is transcendental.

I cannot get enough of Carvel and Omission. And for some reason this version of the record seems to have so much more power in it, at least thats what I think... So good I dont have Words... :o

Man, hearing this acoustic version for the first time and just about in tears on ‘Omission’ 🙌🏼

is that Josh singing on Omission with John? what a performance...

Chances come and chances go...

in relief - so authentic playing and singing 32:50 "times grows old in reverse"

I love John Frusciante forever

CARVEL When I try I force it out Never looking in only out Now is the time for a millions to lose Never the same since I lost you Running me out the town Wishing the best around Would only get off my back Heaven receives you and throws you back Sending a dummy to my God (x4) Driving to eat a Carvel cake Somewhere you know isn't where you think Have you gone away Have you gone, have you gone away already (come back, come back, come back, come back) Have you gone, have you gone away already (come back, come back, come back, come back) Have you gone, have you gone away already (come back, come back, come back, come back) Have you gone, have you gone away already All the good times are on their way Up and down that's how energy stays alive Up and down that's how energy stays alive And I wouldn't have it any other way

I never knew there was an acoustic version of this masterpiece😭😭...beyond beautiful

Regret is one of the most powerful songs I've ever heard and this version is... perfect..

this inspires me as a human being. (not to sound corny... but i do)

this video has been available for 4 years and I'm only discovering it today??? what have I been doing with my life this whole time?

omission is great as an acoustic piece

Wow this album is gorgeous. All hail Frusciante.

AND YOU KNOOOOW !!! I DO MISS THIS GIRL !!!! godammit, i don't wat to cry john, don't make me cry

La magia que tiene este hombre es impresionante, lo mejor que le pasó a la música ever

I have heard this was recorded on a Tascam 488, which is an 8-track cassette Portastudio. I love the lo-fi Frusciante stuff

This album is the most beautiful piece of music that has graced my ears in a long time

After listening to this album was the moment when I realized all this time I was way more a Frusciante fan rather than RHCP. The acoustic hits just the same. Love it. It was so clear after he left that he carried them to fame. Don't get me wrong, Anthony, Flea and Chad are amazing musicians, but the hits that made them explode is all John's sound. Especially in Stadium Arcadium. Just my opinion.

19 years ago until today, I cry with happiness every time I hear this wonderful album. All real energy. John & Josh

God Frusciante

I wish I could upvote this 1,000,000 times.

This man's sound and style is like a hero who seemed dead, but makes a miraculous return....oh wait that's who he really is.

Great album, and Josh part really makes it even better.

I was 14 when I first listened to this records and it still resonates. Shame it's not on Spotify.

REGRET I regret my past Stay alone

Amazing... I just wanna cry listening this phase of John! He was so into Syd Barret's songs I think!

RICKY I was afraid to be me Be anyone you want to be Be anyone you want to be I don't blame my weak For my not being able to speak Clearly about things I've said before And if it's light outside, night will fall Night will fall And if it's life, the resolves The resolves Anywhere you are in a maze is a lie Anywhere you are on a page you still go to the right Anytime there's no ground below you, you're in the sky Anytime you're afraid it's gonna be alright It's gonna be alright I was a flame in the night I heard what I wanted to hear And the moment I disappeared I grew the size of all outside 'Cuz I became one with the night I became one with the night And if it's real it's not all It's not all there is There's a lot in what appears not to be there at all And you can function as someone besides who you are

I've heard Shadows so many times, and it's always been amazing. But my jaw actually dropped in awe when I heard those opening vocals to Carvel here. John is seriously one of the greatest artists to exist (Both in RHCP and on his own)

soul's healer

My favorite álbum of JF. This acoustic version is good

water It's just perfect

Who wishes this was the actual release? Don’t get me wrong, I love the true album but this is so raw and beautiful

Years keep passing by and this album keeps feeling the same since the time it was released :'). It's just lovely and full of emotion.

Essa versão no spotify, seria bom de mais .

Thanks for uploading, how did I not know this existed?

how have I not heard this before? thank you and long live John Frusciante

Pessoal fala de nascer na época errada... Nascemos na melhor época! Podemos entrar na Internet e ouvir esse álbum a hora que quisermos.

This Cold is a masterpiece

Just found out this album existed and I am beyond ecstatic that I does!

I've listened to this album SO MUCH and I never knew there was an acoustic version. It's beautiful and soulful and I love it.

long road trip with this album playing... great therapy...

Hace un año que no escucho esta maravilla, hoy me levanté y por curiosidad abrí youtube en la cama (cosa que no hago nunca) y me salió este disco, no dude ni medio segundo y lo puse, que lindo recuerdo.

SECOND WALK I take a second walk Down the street of fame I've paid it off and paid for it again All these miserable feelings never end But to fall and be down's something I transcend I've been a meal of mine And slid down my throat And all I'm facing is one more way to go Died so many times and then reappeared All death looks like to me is a word that causes fear I'm taking my place In a world with different space No time at all accept how you move Be who you are Do what you do Not win or lose

This is PURE GOLD. Thank you John!

my top five john amazing frusciante from this album regret song to sing when i m lonely time goes back in relief omission oh my its josh in back vocals lol

What!?!?!!? I love the original version and I had no idea that this existed!!!! Thank you YT algorithm!!

I listen to this very often. Beautiful (in my opinion(

The man is a guitar wizard. Love his voice too

....score! didn't know this existed.... early morning unexpected treasure when compiling today's playlist!!!

I love how no one can completely put into words the way they feel about this album. I can't do it either. ❤️

2018 \m/ Welcome 4'th Dimension Freaks !! and Happy Birthday.

"A song to sing when I'm lonely" is so perfect that it's in the minute 24:24

This album is just perfect

Sometimes all we need as human beings is to empty our own tears reservatory, or just to feel a bit more vulnerable, for some just moisty eyes, and the power of Jonh's testments in his own words channels a hole spectrum of emotions, memorys and hope. His masterpieces are simply a fascinating instrument through which one can have each own cathartic process of rebirth. Sometimes I see myself singing alone 'I regret my past' and it's just the bottom trampolin I need to rise again so that I don't collide with my shadows 🙏

one of my favorite albums i dont know why it feels so nostalgic

My personal favorites (for when I come back to this album) Omission Time Goes Back Cut Out Chances

Shadows Collide With People changed my life.

Frusciante is a Saint.

I love the way John Frusciante drops his aitches sometimes. Listen out for when he does this; I’m sure you’ll agree these are beautiful moments in his songs.

Creo que lo más hermoso de la música es poder conectar con nuestras emociones, sean cuáles sean, es como hacerle cariño al alma y decirle que todo está bien y poder sentirlo realmente, en momentos en los que no es así, pocas cosas son capaces de lograr eso. Muy buen disco, lo siento inspirador pa crecer en todo aspecto como persona, gracias por tanto

OMG thank God. Always loved the songs but thought they were ruined by the echoes/vocal effects. This is magic.

Muchas gracias por compartirlo!!!

Thank you so much for uploading this!

LOVE LOVE LOVE - THANK YOU FOR THIS VERSION - LOVE LOVE LOVE

Emotionally beautiful. Love it.

Thank you john for this beautiful music..

Simpleza, genialidad, artístico, belleza

Just amazing! It really captures John's essence.

Love Omission
