I LOVE this song and I agree he is VERY talented with his song writing and he has a nice voice, just wish he had better vocal control. If Jason Mraz sang this there's a possibility that it could be one of my new favorite songs.
@riggiocrspagirl your crazy its the imperfections in his voice that make it so great. just image a place where everything is perfect and wonderful all the time... now try to image a place more boring
@2282steven yes and no. They both have AMAZING songs but billy joel is a legend and has an incredible voice. Eric is great too just not as mature in his voice yet. if ya know what I mean? Both GREAT artists though.
Why does this guy not have a freaking contract!!!! I need him to get a contract so my friends who are stuck in main stream music dont think im crazy.. I just found this guy randomly but holy crap hes talented!! hope the best for him!! the ending is great!!!!!
Is it me, or would the offspring of John Mayer, Jason Mraz and Gavin Degraw somehow had a baby...it would be Eric Hutchinson????? And Micheal Jackson was the god father.....

nobody had sex with anyone, im sure all these excellent artists jason, james and gavin , theyre are all their own person. as is eric hutchinson so lets just listen to the damn instead of talking about orgy's and i think theyd agree with me , becuase saying tthat an artist sounds like someone else can be offensive.
@Nevershoutneverfan95 Actually most artists (MOST) see it as a compliment so just mind your own P's and Q's if people want to make comparisons. This is the internet, not old MTV.
i've listened to this song at least 100 times in the past 2 days. I listen to this while doing homework or just whenever I'm at my computer. Without it, I would most likely die :D
what album is this version on. The reason I ask this is because the song before it is all over now and the album has a different order. The cheering and talking is not on the original album. Please help!
@cten07 - actually, as a musician, and after watching Eric, I KNOW he feels the same - that ALL of his songs are either influenced by - or are EXACTLY the SAME as...MANY other 'pop' songs out there - there's only so many chord structures you can create; that's the point Eric makes by playing his 'medley' pieces - showing the 'origins' of his songs....but i TOTALLY agree that he has one DAMN unique voice, musicianship - and is basically a genius in my personal opinion! the guy LOVES his music. :)
@ExiledinElysium i sooo agree with that. Thats when you know someone is really good when their live shows are better than the recording. I so wanna go to a concert!!
@CloudStarxXx I think that is because on this was recorded at one of his concerts. On Pandora, it plays a few minutes prior to this song starting on another song. He actually told them all to cheer and pretend that they know the song, because it was a new song to the audience. At first, they cheered too early, so apparently he was going to give them a head cue. That's why he sounds so sarcastic when he says 'Oh, you know this one!'
So not only is this guy a fantastic artist, he can actually sing which makes him SOOOOOOOOOOOO much better than so many other artists out there. Such fantastic music.
Finally a guy who doesn't care about making it in the big city. Just chillin' out with piano or guitar.. No band, no studio acquired. Pure music! Go go go! Spread it Eric!
If you like Eric Hutchinson, you should check out The City Series, an indie/singer-songwriter band from Minneapolis. Their MySpace url is thecityseries, or check out their Facebook page.
this is the second time i've seen a video where eric has made some comment to the audience about not talking while he plays. Really? If they paid to come see his show, he really doesn't have any right to tell them how to enjoy it. And if they didn't pay, he definitely has no grounds to say anything. Clearly most people in the audience enjoy his music, and judging by this great recording, their talking was not all that loud and didn't distract from his great playing. Don't be a dick fool.
I love u Eric ur great all ur songs but i love this one its about him getting with a 17 yr old girl nice lol i will ur 20 yr old girl lol ilove u !!!!! keep rockin it baby
I'd be willing to wager he's even a little more talented then some of Jason and Jack's stuff... I can listen to all of Eric's songs over and over... which I certainly cant do with Jason or Jack's music
eric uses musical complexity that trained musicians can really appreciate, and still sounds catchy and can appeal to almost anyone. neither jack johnson or jason mraz can say that.
I love Eric Hutchinson, but I like Jason Mraz more.
I'm sorry, I just do.
Some of Jason's music is way more simple musically, but look how much MORE music he has created? Waaay more.
And Jason's voice is a little better. Not Much. But Jason's falsetto totally kills Eric's. Listen to Mr. Curiosity. He's the one that does the lady's opera voice. I'm not joking either.
hmm, i agree with pretty much you've said. i do think jason does have a better voice; it's debatable, but i think most people would side with jason.
he definitely has more music, but quantity and quality do not necessarily go together.
however, admit this:
the chord progressions eric uses in even his catchiest songs (i.e. rock and roll) i've never even come across, ever. jason uses the same progressions and stays limited to one key pretty much for an entire song.
i know this one we can skip it!! talented and funny!!!!! :)
