Hi Perry

Nice video interview from way back. I heard something I really liked. The exact voice tone you demonstrated there is what I need to hear with your new material. Loads of sustained melodic lines using the high register you exampled in the video. Perry you drifted away from it in recent recordings much to our loss. Your solo 2001 release utilized it the most in good example. It's the trademark PerryFarrell soft voice I need you to bring back.

Great clip. I can't belive that was over 20 years ago. I used to watch this show all the time back in the day. I might have seen this very one too.

:lol:

First of all, I think Perry Farrell is one those flaky artists that can't be relied on to follow anything through, mainly because he's constantly jumping from one thing to another , rather than concentrating on what he's best at. He ditched Jane's Addiction just as they were hitting their peak, he lost interest in Porno for Pyros, his excursions into festivals and events never quite live up to his hype and his whole turn as a DJ isn't really taken seriously by fans of electronica. However, the man has a supremely melodic and beautiful voice and he can write great songs. Unfortunately, the very thing that makes Perry great is also his greatest hindrance: his restlessness. If the guy just learned the value of patience and stuck to doing one thing amazingly, he'd be above and beyond his contemporaries. The way it seems now is that he gets bored too quickly and is already looking on to his next project before he gets the current one done. He's a victim of his own ambitions. Stop looking at the horizons Perry, and enjoy the warm glow of the sun in the here and now.
