Nothing from Curtains?
Heh, it would be impossible for me to narrow it down to 10 of John's songs. My 10 would probably look completely different than yours, except for The Will to Death and Look On.
great list bt i would defeniatly had Carvel or Song to sing when im lonely from the shadows album
yeah i agree with ali.. all first time john listeners i know usually love song to sing when im lonely first.. and the past recedes from curtains :)
I'd have The Past Recedes for sure, but there's so many to choose from there are a million awesome combinations. This is a good list.
"In Relief" from Shadows really should make the list. It represents his work for me.
Keep 'em coming Frusciante fans, and we'll compile a marathon playlist in a week or so.
From Curtains, Anne and Time Tonight!
carvel is my favorite, and omission is a good one from Shadows as well. DCEP's repeating is a solid slow song to mellow you down
