Live on Letterman - John Mayer In Concert

[kybrann1]

this is brilliant.. my girlfriend asked me the other day if id go gay for john mayer and i honestly had to think about it. is that bad?

[craigsnyder1963]

@kybrann1 thats very natural i wouldn't worry about it too much

[sweetflip12]

they dont show enough pino

[punkdude543]

@sweetflip12 i'm gunna assume its because pino is nowhere in this video.

[sweetflip12]

totally seducing 21:46

[STJMAYN]

John Mayer = 33.3% Superb Vocalist/Lyricist, 33.3% Skilled Guitarist/Composer, and 33.4% Stand-up comedian.

[stickybelvedere]

epic

[TZajac22]

Whatever you do listen to the last five minutes and listen to his last solo, he starts singing what he is soloing. Its awesome and hilarious hahaha.

[TZajac22]

its at 1:03:30

[purplehalospade]

this was great!!!

[TheNeutralTerritory]

anyone else think the announcer at the beginning is john himself?

[deetaii]

@TheNeutralTerritory i totally did

[jonahcbarnett]

@TheNeutralTerritory

it is john himself

:) awesome that you noticed

[mmg1195]

@TheNeutralTerritory I'm almost positive, haha.

[ignizzledb07]

John+David Ryan Harris' guitar duet after Vultures, insaane!!

[lemonzhead]

when he hit the high note at 29:22 i was like: i worship this guyyyyyy

[lemonzhead]

wish he would have sung your body is a wonderland, thats his best song thumbs up if you agreee! (:

[northernstudio]

Thought it was U2 first. Sounds so much like them...strange!!!

[Cbluesrocker]

Lol to those people at like 37:00! They are all yelling out songs. Hey idiots, he has a setlist!

[zkornovich]

John Mayer. Is. God.

[Cheusiv]

wow CBS has uploaded 45000 videos, learn something new everyday.

[turquoiseviolin7]

I <3 this guy! He is A-M-A-Z-ING!

[ChristianLanley]

the dude has completely abandoned the guitar-pick and become one with his instrument.

[facabella]

why is he soooooooo sssseeeeeexxxxxyyyyyyyy.......­drool.....

[cublove162120]

<3

[musikfreak8137]

I'm not trying to be a "Two thumbs" up Whore, but Two thumbs up if you watched the whole concert.

[ffaso42]

at 34:28 in the front of the stage is that a prompter telling him the lyrics?

[stellarmatt13]

@ffaso42 yes...he has one at every one of his concerts

[Emoidiot187]

29:13 now that is some hardcore career making backup dancing.

[rickyistheman]

I dont understand how all of his songs are so deep and meaningful but in every interview he acts like an arrogant asshole..

[facabella]

can he be my husband please. i will be forever grateful :)

[hansonbravo]

@facabella no you wont...

[facabella]

@hansonbravo and why is that?

[Jmoneymackzilla]

The black guy on the keys? Haha he didn't do anything that cool. Plus, The black guy on the keys has a name, Charlie Wilson.

[ThreeFootFilms]

@bjhMus1C 43:37 my friend. 43:37

[ThreeFootFilms]

John Mayer is okay. but the true performer in this video is the black guy on keys.

[bjhMus1C]

@ThreeFootFilms lol, get out of here stupid troll

[Kurt7446]

best show ever!!!



[ShaneHagan]

Check out my cover of John Mayer! :-)

[Cbluesrocker]

The tempo on Perfectly Lonely was a little fast. Who cares? John hardly ever makes mistakes

[bjhMus1C]

@Cbluesrocker ...it's not like he rushed, he just decided to up the tempo. no mistakes made ;)

[puffyclouds]

0:57:20 WRONG CHORD!!! 8o loll

[cmryzx]

at 34:48 he says rewrite ".." history? that's not the lyric on the record..

[bjhMus1C]

@cmryzx he fucks around with the lyrics sometimes for live shows, as he does with the composition of the songs at time with solos and all.. i think he's aloud to do so being the writer and all

[Aronsonful1]

Who inspired this dude to write such beautiful music.

[Cbluesrocker]

@Aronsonful1 Stevie Ray Vaughan

[Aronsonful1]

sometimes he does

[fenderstratman120]

does he ever use a pick

[Aronsonful1]

@fenderstratman120 sometime

[sweettart412]

hiii



[cowboycliche022]

Look at how fast he puts the pick in his hand at 42:50.

[ljones81]

I used to love BJ Armstrong how dare he. :-)

[SallyChanggg]

he's soooooooooooooooo cute :)

[moeskeeez]

damn new yorkers..

[Beeeeeeenn]

I absolutely LOVE the breakdown of Waiting on the world to change!!!

it could even be a track of its own!

its soo awesome!!

[TheDistortionist]

@Beeeeeeenn I've always thought that. People tend to overlook that part of the song. The muted trumpet gives a really smokey jazz bar feel that's just addictive.

[Jackassbobby112]

OOoowwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!

[heycortez]

i love when the guy yells "john mayer dot com" during who says lol

[sgh091]

The crowd really shows what a great time you'll have at his concerts. speaking from personal experience, 8th row wasnt too bad! It is no question worth every cent for ANY ticket!

[gingersan621]

Great Gravity...Orgasmic...

[avin4723]

@gingersan621 the Where The Light Is version is a LOT better. but yes, this is an awesome one. :)

[nicksib911]

Just do it!!

[1boniverfan]

Also Steve Jordan blows my mind. blew it in concert. It's incredible

[1boniverfan]

Why is John so hot when he plays perfectly lonely? 27:34

[marycampagna]

This artist, John, and other members of the band truly express their souls through their music. John in particular can make his guitar speak volumes. The keyboard player, Charlie Wilson is also AMAZING. All of the band is OUTSTANDING. Oh by the way...to @VIL388 you need to find some self love!

[cowboycliche022]

@z12zack

You have a good ear...it's the same chord progression as in his song, "The Hurt."

"The Hurt" was a song that John said was probably the closest to making an album (in itself), but since it didn't, he decided to incorporate it into "Friends, Lovers, or Nothing."

[JayBlaske]

The dueling solos at about 30 minutes, towards the end of Perfectly Lonely.... Brilliant. It sounded like they were talking to each other through the guitars!

[walrusdude17]

@Bloozpower

He definitely should. He would be great with one.

[Bloozpower]

@walrusdude17

I just found a video of him playing stitched up with a PRS hollowbody, great video.

[Bloozpower]

I wonder why he never uses a PRS? He goes through multiple Fenders, Gibsons, Duesenbergs. Yet, I have never seen a video of him playing a PRS? Anybody have an insight to this?

[tylerdwells]

@Bloozpower look up Stiched Up

[JonPurdue7]

smokeshow right after 30:05

[Fabianvga]

John Mayer for President../Rock,Blues,Hope...­.

[naphighuknow12]

J.M. music is sex music

[202Aura]

I love how every single music related video has comments full of Justin Bieber no matter what. I can't wait till 5 years from now when no one remembers him and he's disappeared .

[TheOGlakers]

why doesn't this video work...

[begokk]

@TheOGlakers it works

[soralaka1]

Why do people watch videos just to dislike them? I dont get that

[XxCourtneyRawrrxX]

these people do not deserve this!!!! they are all sitting down...not standing up or anything! I deserve to be there..i would've been the only one standing and singing along..I LOVE YOU JOHN MAYER <3333

[dwdrummerboi]

@XxCourtneyRawrrxX

Standing draws focus away from the music.

[Gabita1978]

i have seen this video like 20 times!

[xdancerx891]

He's my hero, he has like a billion guitars!! :O

[VIL388]

fuck this white boy!!! stupid asshole

[Ben80997]

@VIL388 get the fuck off this video -.-

Go jack off to chocolate rain , I'm sure you'd like that a bit more than this "white boy".

[pastyourhorizon]

WHAT ARE THEY DOING SITTING DOWN?!!

[DaTNiNjAJoHn]

@Ben80997 vultures

[matrixman609]

@Ben80997 "vultures"

[Ben80997]

1:03:26 - 1:03:40

Fucking love him!

[cowboycliche022]

@Ben80997

This should be the top comment.

[BadMannerKorea]

I understand it's a concert, but people pay to hear John Mayer, not to hear women screaming "I LOVE YOU".

[TheTwistedmistr]

This is a great little gig spot for any Musician... David Letterman did May some justice here.

[TheTwistedmistr]

This is a great little gig spot for any Musician... David Let

[Sasszers3]

gravity and slow dancing are two songs that just always make me tear up

love this man.

[Sasszers3]

how could you possibly be sitting still at this.....i'd be like that blond girl lol

[enriquesalazar009]

@z12zack in what minute? lol, it's an hour long performance, care being specific?

[sdimmlic]

this is by far one of the best artist for our generation....i like the way he sounds on his records much better than life performance, but he's great at what he does anyway.

[johnpinkerton96]

"Music is at it's best when you can lay out your flaws but put it to a melody that hides them so people just end up singing along to things that are actually a little less perfect." -John Mayer

This is a great quote for future artists

[thornrob]

Is "Live on Letterman" on TV? Or is it just an online thing?

[Tatuuum4]

Every time he starts playing guitar I get turned on.

[ShayneCT]

I think some ass holes just go around on youtube disliking videos that are obviously not worth disliking.

[JayM1646]

John mayer = best artist of our generation!!

[h8rone]

@JayM1646 hahahahahaha thats hilarious

[No7Pato]

i really wonder why John doesnt sound this good in studio album.

he's an amazing performer. this shit made my day!!

[billp1955]

This was incredible! I feel like I just robbed Johnny of a couple hundred bucks by getting to see this for free...the best part is how he changes every song just a little to keep them more interesting for him....

[TheDpage1]

that cover of crossroads is proof that john mayer is one of the best blues players to live

[Msdistarr]

Two of lifes pleasures: This music and a good set of headphones!

[JEBlair90]

John Mayer concert at work? Cha!

[fairygirlhippie]

Haha he says make love for a minute or so instead of for an hour or so, and no one even laughed! John Mayer ROCKS

[billp1955]

@fairygirlhippie I laughed!!! He must of gotten tired of braggin'! :)

[Ben80997]

What is he doing with hid hand at 24:17 to 24:21 to get that sound ?

[NateJ95]

@Ben80997 hes hitting the tremolo bar with a bit of a snap to get a good sound. its hard as hell to do it that well though.

[NateJ95]

@Ben80997 hes hitting the tremolo bar with a bit of a snap to get a good sound. its hard as hell to do it that well though.

[jbsoccerbrit]

@Ben80997 he's just fanning the bulk of his palm over the strings.

[askrzat83]

Let a man be lost...

for once in his lifetime

to live out his whole life

all in a nights time

to sit in his room and

stare out at the sky line

and know hes got plenty of time

left in his lifeline...

[blakmagik4]

everyone should have a guy that just hands them a guitar

[1richards]

Every time I see John Mayer perform live, I get all excited. Know why? See that short guy with long hair running in and out handing John guitars? That's Rene Martinez. Who is Rene Martinez, you ask? He is none other than the former guitar tech of the late, great S.R.V. Yeah. John Mayer works with the former guitar tech of Stevie Ray fucking Vaughan. Just how awesome is that? Answer: Pretty damn awesome.

[LoverOfSpace777]

@1richards Dude, that's sweet, but it is a lttle weird that you're having a conversation with youself. . . . .

[bjhMus1C]

@1richards lol his guitar tech excites you more than his music?

[jeff5000111]

@1richards dude i am way to high for all that!!!

[bunntime]

@jeff5000111 dude same here man hahaha

[fenderstratman120]

@1richards yah thats so dope man i bet he sets up his guitars like he did stevies.

[fenderstratman120]

haahh he walks rigth by that hot chick at the end who thought she was going to get all of his attention haha

[IShallBeReleased67]

Crossroads was good. Robert Johnson would be proud.

[MissAlwayzRandom]

OH, and can anyone post a list of the songs played in order in which they were played? (: I need more songs for my iPod. I really like the second one.

[meanieblueeyes32186]

@MissAlwayzRandom 1. Heartbreak Warfare 2. Vultures 3. Half of my Heart 4. Crossroads 5. Perfectly Lonely 6. Who Says 7. Waiting on the World to Change 8. Gravity 9. Friends, Lovers, or Nothing. An awesome show...like always. :)

[MissAlwayzRandom]

Too many people are fighting on here! Enjoy John Mayer ad his talented self please!

[rickpark1]

I've listen to several of his vids and have yet to hear him sing, anyone can say a song. sorry gang i just don't hear him.

[meanieblueeyes32186]

@rickpark1 I'm sorry to hear this...you are definitely missing out. :(

[MajorMyjah]

Everyone says I remind them of this dude. John Mayer. That's a compliment. Check out Major Myjah youtube.com/user/MajorMyjah#p/­u/1/SjFc39wAiFc

[guitarplayer407]

52 people have incorrect subjective opinions..

[esprit15d]

i like how he says "taking hits again" instead of "talking shit again."

[Skeeteze4]

Isn't this just like John Mayer. He is so good to his fans. I too was shocked to see that the video was a hour and six minutes long. The first time I saw him was on PBS television. That didn't cost me a dime either. I think it is safe to say that John just wants to play " HIS MUSIC" and he provides us the opportunity to sit in and listen.

[pbdude01904]

this is going on the Ipod for sure...

[ragingstorm33]

it took me a long time to be like how do you play like that or this is easy and thats hard and this and that...when you sit back and relized all the reasons your glued watching this...its cuz your high as hell and im almost out man

[bassdrumrules]

@ragingstorm33 Sorry man cause I just got ripped off but if I still had something,something I coulda help you.

[underaveragejoe123]

that was a sick drum solo to lead into waiting on the world!:]

[michismarquez]

John will you marry me?? I love you goshh you are so talented!!!! :)

[iitsandrew1]

I love the fact that he doesnt give a fuck abt what hes wearing like they came here for music nothing else so fuckit imma wear sweats!

[druski3331]

Check out my new song called DONT SAY I TRIED. uSER NAME druski3331. Leave comments

[skateplanbboard]

when i first saw how long the video was i was like theres no way im watching the whole thing. boy was i wrong.

[LSweener012]

John was born with a guitar slung from his neck....the birthing process was awkward but worth it. Get up and rock out people!

[thisstinks92]

anyone know what kinda rims the drummer has on his toms? i like em

[SebastianRocks02]

ahhhhh i love this man with a passion

[KAus5122]

who gives a fuck what he is he can fuckin play a guitar id bet you any amount of money he would kick your ass

[wildbill0722]

Crossroads was soo awesome!

[ZachLaraMusic]

I never saw that! They have a screen there where the lyrics are scrolling for him!

[xLordxTristanx]

@ZachLaraMusic i see the screen and having worked at venues backstage helping bands setup, yes i have also setup for john mayer, that screen is typically used for lyrics however a lot of artists use those to make sure they remember proper time signature for higher class performances so they don't improvise too much. he wouldn't typically use for a normal gig at say live nation. he'd be quicker at that kind of venue to give the fans what they want.

[mr9chris]

those anyone have this on youtube without the lame commercials?

[RudeBuddha8]

in times where crap like Jersey Shore and Justin Beiber rule, at least there's John Mayer's musical skill to restore faith in humanity

[GuitarRonnie13]

@RudeBuddha8 Justin Bieber is actually talented. I'll agree, Jersey Shore is complete trash. But yes. Thanks God for John Mayer!

[zume2600]

@RudeBuddha8 he's right on par with Beiber, dude, sorry to say.

[mrwilliamwonder]

@RudeBuddha8 I must take issue with that. Bieber is a Grammy winner and fine musician in his own right. and even John Mayer knows it. The notion that Bieber is not one of us is ridiculous.

[Shadowhanz05]

@mrwilliamwonder JB hasn't won any Grammys. I mean you're right though, he obviously is talented to some degree.

[TheFifthTake]

Lol, if you pay close attention, the guy that introduces John sounds an awful lot like John. haha.

[sk8erguy011]

@TheFifthTake yeah a little bit haha

[vVvMrJones]

@TheFifthTake Thats because that is John.

[TheFifthTake]

@vVvMrJones but who introduces themselves? Its freakin John Mayer man. The guy who announces people for boxing should be introducing him, either him or Morgan Freeman. Man Freeman has the voice of god. If the world was ending and he just told me that I was gonna be okay. I'd probably believe him. lol.

[vVvMrJones]

@TheFifthTake Or Ted Williams.

[enriquesalazar009]

@TheFifthTake your comment was going pretty good, it was actually cool even , til u said "lol", that ruined it.

[TheFifthTake]

@enriquesalazar009 Uh..I forgot what I said. lol. xD

[XxSGxMAYNExX]

One of the titles for a suggested video on the side says "Boy finds used condom in hotel". Just thought I'd let everyone know that.
