If you were to die tomorrow, how would you spend your final day on Earth? Getting in touch with his inner reaper this month is Jane’s Addiction’s guitar supremo, Dave Navarro.
Where would you wake up?
Probably on another planet that was having its first day.
Who do you wake up next to?
I think that Megan Fox and I would have a real good shot at reigniting some kind of human species.
What would there be left to achieve on your last day?
To be honest, if it was my last day on Earth doing any type of work would probably be the last thing on my mind. So I don’t think there would be any professional endeavours on the last day on Earth. But, I’ve been to the North Pole so you might as well throw in the South Pole. Gotta check out the South Pole.
Who do you invite for your final dinner?
When my last day on Earth comes around I’m not sitting down for any kind of a meal! But if I were to eat, what would be on the menu would be any combination of carbs, cheese, fat and sugar. Absolute self-indulgence.
What would be your greatest regret?
You’re talking to a pretty unapologetic guy who doesn’t regret much. You know, in all sincerity on that one, probably that I haven’t spent more time with family, close family.
What would be the last album you’d listen to?
It would be either ‘The Fragile’ by Nine Inch Nails or Pink Floyd’s ‘The Wall’
Who is the last person you would kiss?
I think I’m going to have to go back to my original Megan Fox answer.
“You’re talking to a pretty unapologetic guy who doesn’t regret much.”
How would you like to snuff it?
Well there are a number of different ways in which it would be nice to die: one would be to pass quietly and safely in my sleep, one would be to over-experiment with opiates, and one would be to have a cardiac arrest while in the process of making love to Megan Fox. I think I’ll go with that one.
What would your final words be?
“That was fucking amazing.” That includes the band, that includes Megan, and that includes life.
What song would you play at your funeral?
I’ve always wanted inappropriate music at my funeral, something that wouldn’t make anyone else unhappy. So maybe something by The Sugarcubes.
What would it say on your grave stone?
The funny thing is I’ve thought about this a million times and I’ve got a million great answers, but not on the spot, I don’t have it. So, just: ‘Here lies Dave Navarro. He did the best he could.’
Which dead star would welcome you at the Pearly Gates and why?
Probably my mother because I haven’t seen her in thirty years. She’d show me where all the strip clubs are.
If you were resurrected the day after tomorrow, who or what would you come back as?
Sincerely? Guitar player for Jane’s Addiction. I couldn’t be happier. I really would do it all over again. I think the way it’s gone is the way it’s supposed to go and I would do it exactly like that.
