And we have the capacity to understand any sort of music, but it takes time for your neurons to come together in a way for you to realize the importance of the symphony/noise or the combination. One song you like is just a gateway to the album, and then the artist. And then, an artist's frame of mind at moments in time..... Music is actually a painting in time.

I would love to meet John! Been in love with his style and him, himself since I was about 13🤘🏽❤️

At the end of the video, after discussing many other amazing bands from that preceding time period, John mentioned specifically about his love for REM and that their music made him feel like he had a friend during a time in his life where he felt close to the edge of existence. That’s a really beautiful thought that I think a lot of us take for granted when thinking about artistic contributions, and what we value in terms of style. I know that I’ve personally found myself moved to tears by their music before, and that has value beyond strictly clinical abilities. Indirectly, REM saved music for everyone post 99’.

i absolutely adore this man and his art and i'm so glad that he seems to like all the same artists as me. the cure is my favourite band and have been so all my life, and i'd never noticed the seventeen seconds/faith vibe in californication before!

Flat out the best commentary I have ever heard regarding how music is supposed to make us feel. The bands that he mentions should be honored to be included in this. Does REM know that they literally saved this man's life?

Years ago I saw an interview with John where he said It was easier for him to express himself with the guitar than with words.

Wow, what an interview. So happy to see he found the way up from the hole he was in. And great to have explained to me why I have liked REM through the years, up until Out of Time that is. The world is a better place with this man as a person and guitar player in it.

Wow! PK and Mark B on the intv with John. MTV2 - 22 Greatest Bands Interview. I haven't watched this in a long time. Thanks PK!

This why hes so talented cause in the red hot chilli peppers he subtley weeves all these influences into his playing. Thats a very sweet thing to say about rem. Power of art i think music has saved me on a few occasions. God bless you john

Such an interesting artist. You wonder if he even realizes how brilliant he is and what an influence he is to other guitarists. So surprising to see someone who is so remarkably gifted be so insecure or vulnerable. It was somehow refreshing. Very human, thankfully.
