B: You don't.
JF: I know how it would sound to me, it would sound totally unbalanced, you know, despite Rick Rubin's balanced production and Flea's talented song writing and all that I know that Dave Navarro, as far as just a band chemistry they were just off balance because I'm the one that by me being in the band puts that balance there between the four of us. I'm extra sensitive to how off that was with Dave Navarro, you know, it's just... it was off. (looking at me and smiling widely) Sorry.
B: OK (laughing)
JF: I mean, I'm not putting it down, it's just like what I said about God, it's like, if you like that album I'm glad you like it for you, you know, but I don't have to...
B: No! I just really, really wondered, I mean the thing is that I feel like there's a very, very special chemistry between Chad, Flea you and Anthony that has no comparison, and and then it felt like... for instance her (pointing at my friend Geli) she can tell you because she was like "I love this album" she loves, like... I have to tell you she wasn't really...she's is not really into the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Geli: Now I am, now I am.
JF: (looking at me) What does she like?
B: (at Geli) What do you like?
JF: You are because of this tour?
G: I am because of this tour.
JF: Oh because of this tour.
B & G: Yeah
G: I think the singles aren't exactly the best songs on the albums, you know what I mean?
JF: Yeah
G: Like the stuff you hear on the radio is not the best of the album.
JF: Yeah...my friend Ian was saying that to me recently, he was saying it's kind of like... you have that sometimes when good people are popular, what they're known for isn't really what they're best at, you know, I guess that's just the way it is when you're dealing with the masses (he laughs) but it doesn't bother me because for the people who go after... That's how I am, I'm always a big fan of B sides, you know
G & B: Yeah!
B: They're the best.
JF: To me the B sides that we had after slash record so far, I like them better than anything on the record, you know, and the other B sides I think I like even better than those, and that's how I am with Nirvana, with Nirvana it's the same thing I don't like their hit songs and they're one of my favorite bands and, like "Smells like teen spirit" is the only hit song that there is that I really love a lot and mostly the songs that I really love of them were like, B sides and you know, songs that were hidden in albums and stuff, same thing with Oasis and same thing with REM.
B: You like Oasis?
JF: Mmhmm, but I especially like B sides where there's more than their records. (Sighs) I don't like their new record. I liked the first couple of records.
B: I really never liked them.
JF: Yeah. I don't blame you.
B: I just don't...
JF: No, I don't blame you.
B: I just think their personalities are something...
JF: Yeah, you're right, you're right.
B: ...awful. Maybe I'm wrong because I really don't know them personally...
JF: No you're right, they're idiots. But they write some good songs.
(I laugh)
They're idiots with good songs.
B: They're always like fighting and I think they're just trying to make a show out of...
JF: You're preaching to the choir.
B: hmm?
JF: You're preaching to the choir, I agree with you but I still think they've written some good songs.
B: Have you been to Mexi... you have been to Mexico but have you seen anything about Mexico?
JF: Not really.
B: No? Not a place that really fascinates you...
JF: Not really, but I'm just not like that, I'm not a person who is into places, you know, I like my living room, to me that's the place that I'm the most fascinated with and if I can get a recording studio together that'll really be the place that I'm the most fascinated with, you know, I'm not the kind of person who goes on a vacation or goes visits a place.
B: Sorry, there's an ant in your pants
JF: You wanna know about my scars... Oh an ant (he flicks the ant).
G & B: Yeah!
B: They're the best.

B: So you just like your living room.
JF: Yeah, and recording...
B: ...Music.
JF: Yeah, I like wherever me and my guitar and my cds and my records are.
JF: Yeah, and recording...

Hey Barbara
What can i say but wow! This is an amazing interview and thanks for asking the 'orgasim' quetion! :)
I know that you said that it was quite a personal thing that you didn't want to put up the documentary that you made but is there any chance of even putting up some bits like the video with John....! ;) Or bits that are less personal....?
If not no worries what you are sharing is amazing! :)
Thanks,
Fiona
Hi Fiona, yeah, I wanted to put up that whole bit when talking to John and perhaps some bits with Anthony too, and other fun bits, that was my idea when I started the blog, to put some pieces of the footage, but I have lacked the technology to do so. I'm trying to put it up soon :)
thanks! :)
Thank you very much for the great interview!
I love reading it =)!!
That was such a great interview with John. I hope that you are able to put it up somewhere so we can see the video of it. Really good questions to ask. Maybe you could put it on YouTube?
