Nicks influences

One of my biggest influence would have to be John Frusciante, as a musicians i appreciate all different artist but his music is probably some of the grestest stuff i had ever heard. everything from Niandra Lades and Usually Just a T-Shirt to The Empyrean  have been influential for all types of musicians. The depth of soul he has put into his music is tremendous, its refreshing. Shadows Collide with People is an album that he had worked on for a long period of time, writting it while with the chili peppers. Listening to is was a pleasure because of songs like "Time Goes Back" "Song to Sing When I'm Lonely" and "Ricky" songs that are ironically up beat but have lyrics that really dig deep and convey some sorrow. Few musicians are like John Frusciante and many respect him as an accomplished solo artist. Other albums like The Will to Death, Inside of Emptiness and The Empyrean also show the genius that is John Frusciante. Lyrics from the song "Heaven" off the album The Empyrean are some of the most powerful lyrics i personally have ever heard                              "We live fast cause time won't last                                                                                                          See me freezing like the bum I am
From where you start there's endless information drilled into your eyes                                           Well, I don't need protection
One life begins, another dies
Bad timing
I won't last
Man, that's the facts
It is a feeling that will never pass
And you know you could be taking us far" those lyrics have really made me think about a lot of different things in my life. i just really appreciate him an artist and a musician, i hope he continues to create amazing music
