Just before this video on the song before, he says Joy Division are his favourite band, and just after he starts, he says ''Theyre also the reason i pull my pants up high'' due to Ian Curtis always wearing his quite high. John Frusciante, i always cursed people for covering Joy Division, but you mean every word you sing, and its a perfect tribute and rendition. Simply beautiful.

Out of body experience. For sure.

Peter Hook tells a really cool story in an interview with The Guardian (a British newspaper) about being on tour with Moby and him asking Peter and Bernard to play New Dawn Fades with him. They told him they couldn't remember it and Moby got the Red Hot Chili Peppers (presumably Flea and John) to teach Peter and Bernard how to play it again!

This remains one of my favorite covers of one of my favorite songs. Also it is a clear indication of just how brilliant John Frusciante is.

Caleb Johnston. At sections he is playing both the rhythm and lead parts simultaneously that Bernard Sumner played on two separate tracks on the recording. When JD played the song live, Bernard would play the leads in their specific sections of the song and then switch back to chords/strumming sounds during the singing(he kind of varies between them). You're absolutely correct that the body of the song is quite simple, but to play the two parts as an folk arrangement for one guitarist is a bit trickier overall. John did a good job with the arrangement actually.

40 years today since Ian’s passing, John did him proud with this masterful cover.

@@virginiaknighten4687 Ian Curtis was the lead singer of the British band Joy Division who sadly took his own life in 1980. This is a cover of their song, depending on where you’re from you may have heard their most popular song - ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart’ If not, I’d absolutely recommend you look at their 2 albums: ‘Unknown Pleasures’ and ‘Closer’. There’s some absolute gems on both of those records!

Can tell John loves Joy Division :)

He even asks them to turn it up at the beginning like Ian did with this song. Crazy

The way he plays with such tenacity bet he could strum an accoustic louder and faster than a lot of musicians then and now probably

oh my gosh, he is so fucking amazing guy i ever hear

I love how at the end he says "This is a sad song from my new record... It comes out tomorrow, I think", like he doesn't really give a shit about it coming out.

one of my favourite covers by John, i love it

Thank you to whomever videoed all these. :)

this is awesome. i love him and his music. he's just such an inspiration to my life.

I usually don’t care for covers of Joy Division but this is amazing

Got here because I was listening to the John Frusciante cover songs compilation without the video. By the time it hit the chorus or something, thought it was not one guitar playing right? So I'm here now and confirmed once again why he's my favorite guitar player of all time ❤❤❤

Great cover and tribute ,maybe the best I've heard..

Love it!! this dude has been through a lot!!

John. One of my favorite guitarists. This is a great live with lots of emotional feelings. Him and His guitar.. that's it.

Wonderful!! Much Love to you!!!Thank you so much!!!

Top notch musician with impeccable taste in music

Frusciante is a god of music

Angel on Earth. He thanks 'us' after his performances... we thank you, John.

Every time I see this concert I feel like cutting my head off and bury it under the ground. I can't believe it. It's the best show ever. Fuck. I wanna be there. I love you, John.

Yess, ever since i saw him doing this version of joy division in vienna, I wanted to hear it again, and here it is. Great!!! Coool version in Amsterdam.

This is simply excellent!

I usually don't like covers, but this is really good. I especially like how Frusciante was able to combine the bass and guitar lines.

Grande artista, digno de expressar esta melancolia!

Awesome!!!!! Frusciante is the best...

Господи как я счастлив что услышал это))))!!!

This means so much to me man, possibly my two greatest musical loves and inspirations coming together here on a song that already holds meaning to me. "A loaded gun won't set you free - So you say"

2021 and still the best cover.

AHHH im going to learn this right now. it would be so nice to play the bass and the riff together. john frusciante is the man

Man I totally forgot about his cover of this song. My heart is melting hearing it again after so many years.
