[Roger260kock]

just cant get this song out of my mind

[LeinMarjo]

Very nice song, I his voice

[ramonprins]

111 got a half heart

[macfansince09]

i love john mayer.

[MrNimrod1999]

If people are just going to say the songs horribale, then why did you click on it?

I love this song.

[swatwhatbutgawd]

this song is perfect. I love john and taylor.

[AndyHurleysChicklet7]

taylor swift ruined this song for me because i hate her voice and love john mayer. the two don't mix. and then she had the audacity to tell everyone she dated him just because she sang with him a couple times. she's such a dreamer. or just a whore.

[gbpdrum45]

how could swift record this song with him and not expect to get hurt later? with whatever little fling they had...

[anxietytrip]

again, another moment in my life where this song fits perfectly. i feel like i've only put in half of my heart for the past 3 years with this guy i've been on and on with... now that hes moved on and happy with someone else, i feel like i can actually put my full heart into it... is it jealousy or has it just made me realize i do really want to try again?

[warriorjames]

John has a weird way of hitting all kinds of issues, and yet when you lisen to songs like this you feel as if he's speaking for so many people out there...because half of you heart really WON'T do. One must put their entire heart into the relationship...or the relationship WILL fall apart.

Cheers to you, John, for speaking to everyone in your unique way.

[ak231510]

@warriorjames yeah, its like they say for the iphone - "there's an app for that."

No matter what emotion or thought you are having, "There's a John Mayer song for that."

[donnayawanta]

@warriorjames Very Well Said

[yakuzlin]

I love this song <3 but hate it after 0:00

[rohitindia9494]

@yakuzlin was tat a joke?????better luck next time frd..

[ev11]

@yakuzlin OMG the greater than sign next to the 3 looks like a heart,

you must be a genius.

[getthetapjj]

Taylor is barely a part of this song. She sings two lines. She probably had an entire verse or other extended part of the song that got cut by the producer because the two of them hooked up and broke up. I bet what she recorded sounded good, too bad John Mayer is such a player to ruin what could have been an even better song. But, by the same token, he is the man

[NikkiInHollywood]

@getthetapjj Shes in background on the choruses

[chiellinilopik]

I looked in the Dutch top 40 and I saw John Mayer - Lonely Perfectly.

I listened and thought: This is a nice song. I saw suggestions to: John Mayer - Half of My Heart. I listened to it and I did not like it, I loved it!

Too bad he was in the Netherlands is not really known.

[Vanessabear19]

@chiellinilopik  im dutch :D!

[bannersayshello]

@Vanessabear19 ik ook :'D

[chiellinilopik]

@Vanessabear19 me too:P!

[mvkdirk]

the new johnny cash?

[FrozenKoolaidBoyz]

@mvkdirk no.. the First john mayer.

[eliasmarinhoguitar]

jonh mayer and unique! one of the best of the new generation!

[JChaz405]

Just found a group thats worth checking out... 405 - Colors Come Alive

Check them out on youtube, itunes or amazonmp3

[TheShannon105]

i am soo in love with this song!! ive been crying to this song... i hate love some days.:(

[mixedpersonalitydude]

I dedicate this to Kendra, you may be half of my heart, but also my WHOLE world! Yes, you are the light in my world of darkness! I love you with ALL of my heart, I just hope one day you have a change of yours, and make my heart whole <3

[Retrospective18]

I love Taylors bit because that's where I come in XD

[hysteriaa1]

This song makes me want to hold someone close.

[EsmeRowlands]

i love this <3 both of them are amazing

[whatsbugginshar]

it was great! I can hardly hear Taylor!

[whatsbugginshar]

it was great! I can hardly hear Taylor!

[strawberryflavoured8]

taylor loves guys whose name's starts with a "j", joe, jake, and john haha!

[buffyslayer30]

another one of his love his music so much.

[erikisthebest1]

"Your faith is strong, but I can only fall short for so long. Down the road, later on, you will hate that I never gave more to you, than half of my heart."

My favorite part of the song!! :)

[terranark]

Taylor amazing voice, i love how she sort of brings this 70's harmonious sound to it. john mayer and taylor swift FTW

^_^

[simonlestrange20]

@gerudobombshell lol! 

[shoanajeffrey]

john mayer played taylor, hate him. But his voice is great especially with taylor on the background. You should listen to dear john of taylorswift,  she sings about how he played her, that's what he deserve!

[bannersayshello]

@shoanajeffrey no, he just couldn't love her with half of his heart (;

[ravenscheer23]

@bannersayshello LMAO!

[shoanajeffrey]

@bannersayshello hahaha your funny :)

[Lexytalionis]

...borne in the arms of imaginary friends :) free to roam.. made a home out of everywhere I've been..

[likes2spooge24]

@Lexytalionis borne?... fail.

[Lexytalionis]

@likes2spooge24 Sorry but you obviously FAILED English. Borne ..as in past tense of to bear..or to hold up... held in the arms of imaginary friends.. WTF who is born in the arms of friends?

[misssurfing]

@Lexytalionis We don't speak all fluent English! For loads of people it's a second or even third language (: So don't blame the non-English speaking ones when they make little or huge mistakes - like me.

[Lexytalionis]

@misssurfing I was replying to likes2spooge24 not you. He decided to give me a "fail" for using borne. He doesn't have your excuse... he's from the States!

[misssurfing]

@Lexytalionis Ha, i can and will reply on every comment if i want to! Perhaps he has dyslexia. Or he is an immigrant who doesn't had the chance to learn English yet. Or he is just lame, lol. But no offence heh, i was just telling you (:

[Lexytalionis]

@misssurfing No offense taken... but I will say anything I please, to anyone I please, whenever I choose to. I do not need permission from you or anyone else, to defend myself from an illiterate American.

[misssurfing]

@Lexytalionis Same here! So we agree about one thing (: Peace out.

[likes2spooge24]

@Lexytalionis obviously borne is not what John Mayer was using in this song. You think that he was beared in the arms of his friends? By saying "I was born in the arms of imaginary friends" He means he was born alone. Which is where he gets his next part of the sentence, "free to roam, made a home out of everywhere I've been" Meaning he is alone and is free to do whatever he chooses. So if you think that I "fail" you need to do some research. Also, I am from the states, what's it matter?

[chocolatemilkyum]

.... "I was born in the arms of imaginary friends." ♣

[Framboos123]

Taylor ruins the song. I really don't like her voice.

[simonlestrange20]

where can i get his coat!? 

[StephaayeBoo]

Nuh uh they sound GREAT together .

[emmyspemmy17]

theyre very different artists. i can see where people would be like what.. taylor swift??? but they sound awesome together and all these people are like "TAYLOR SWIFT blah blah blah.. if you like this you dont know real music!", but if YOU people cant recognize the amazing harmonies between them well then you dont know real music... ;)

[jodiejodiex]

what is the point in taylor swift coming in for one word?

[MrJuno6]

A real drummer would have been nice. , tasty fills etc.

[sorry0bout0it]

@MrJuno6 dammit now when i listen to this song, all i can think about is where fills will go and its frustrating as hell :P

[readchomsky]

Steve Jordan played drums on this CD. He is a top studio player and is without a doubt "A real drummer."

[ak231510]

@readchomsky Yeah, and even just calling him a top studio drummer is still selling him short. He is the drummer in the John Mayer Trio, he drummed for Clapton, and Robert Cray, produced Robert Cray and John Mayer albums, and if that isn't enough, he is the drummer they turn to for those orchestra sections for the Oscars, and other award shows. Essentially, there isn't anyone who knows more about the instrument than Steve Jordan.

[LerarenKamer]

why does this vid last 4:45 minutes

while the song itself lasts only +/- 4:00

[jgand72]

Idk why everyone is saying Taylor ruins this song...how so? I think she sounds great, and their voices harmonize well together...

[sonicangel15]

@jgand72 Amen to that, sister.

[HolTukIj]

@jgand72 thats cuz taylor swift SUCKS DONKEY BALLS!!!!

[Oblander]

@jgand72 cuz there are a ton of idiots in our world :/

[duhhvinaaa]

@jgand72

so true. i dont really like taylor swift but honestly

you can barely even hear her.

its mostly John Mayer through the whole song.

[sophie0124]

@duhhvinaaa but that doesn't mean she ruins the song.

[duhhvinaaa]

@sophie0124

yeah thats true(:

[Wouter1211]

John mayer is chillings

[alexaa2395]

John you are amazing, i swear you are one of the most talented artists...but i dont get it , why is taylor swift singing in this?!?!

But well at least she didnt sing more that 5 seconds...*im glad* :D

[BlogueiraYangoo]

Beautiful music. Really beautiful. I love it! Thanks

[666789443]

Anyone else feel like this song is a step backwards for john? It's the same thing over and over. It almost sounds like a country song. *glares at taylor*

[Claudiaax13]

I hate what he did to Taylor but his music is bloody amazingg :)

[bonneLaV]

dear john...you should have known..lol

[OfficialChrisBurke]

Please watch the John Mayer videos on my channel!!

I have live performances from "Where the light is" and "Any Given Thursday"

Songs like "Gravity" , "Your Body is a Wonderland" , "Why Georgia" and more!!

Thanks :)

[StubbyCorgis]

how is taylor swift in this song? lol

[bluecind5]

I wish music like this was appreciated! John was HUGE back in the early 00's!

[w0lf6pack]

Half of my heart captured my whole heart. The phenomenal intro alone was reason enough for me to buy the album.

[MusicalRelease]

Mayer is definitely smart to not let her sing more than she did...that would've put a stamp on his career that he wouldn't be able to get off.

[MrEstro89]

oh im so glad she didnt get a bigger part in this song

[diablo5592000]

love john mayer and love this song it reminds me of me and my girlfriend

[animeandgamefan]

i know that but i rather hear her in this song then lady gaga 0_0

[GrllieLuvr]

thumbs up if you think that taylor swift ruined this amazing song

[ohiodeerhunter21]

@GrllieLuvr  Didn't you mean thumbs down?

[maniskov]

@GrllieLuvr If you didn't know it was Taylor Swift you wouldn't mind. I'm not a fan, but I think she works pretty well. Harmonies blend nicely.

[misssianyboo]

if u dont like this your a fool

[n2dpun]

Taylor swift is in this song?

[MultiA7X4life]

@n2dpun pahaha yes:)

[n4lo01]

i love this song <3 but i hate it after 4:45 =(

[PopRockLUVR]

@n4lo01 it took me about 15 seconds to realize that that is the end of the song. and i am with u on that one. :) <333

[siesss]

@n4lo01

That's why they invented the Replay button :D

[n4lo01]

@siesss

hahahahahahahahaha.......¬¬ 

[HTGmattie]

@n4lo01 google for tubereplay, then there will be no 4:45

[JeroenJensen]

@n4lo01 come up with that yourself ? -.-

[tonghotrongbinh]

do you know your music is a happiness to me?

[therichardchannel]

Even when John just wants to make some extra cash by putting out pop albums like Battle Studies, I'd still listen to it over any of the shitty music that's on the hot 100. I think he alternates albums haha. Room For Squares - masterpiece Heaver Things-cash maker. Contiuum-masterpiece Battle Studies- Cash maker.

[bobcoenen92]

Bob Coenen - Half of my Heart GREAT COVER!!!

[Frostman300]

Ok, this is a great song but the Featured Video is 1:06:59 long but I, on my other account, can't f***ing upload a 16:08 video!! WHY?!?!?!?

[cnovathagreat]

I like's this right hear. relaxing, gets me through lonely nights.

[tonyam187]

yo john mayer because he sounds like one the best ever PHIL COLLINS

[LFP3667]

I love him soo much hes an awesome guy and he has an amazing voice

[musicandWriting77]

I love Taylor Swift and all, she has an amazing voice, but her and John in the same song?? Just... no... completely ruins it. I don't think she and him belong in the same song. I don't think she's worthy of one of his masterpieces <3

[P0YSiN]

@musicandWriting77 Too bad you don't decide who is "worthy" to be on John Mayer's songs.

[Caami77]

I wish i was a guy right now so i can tell more than 100 people to SMD -____-

[CrazyGerman08]

this is the result of Mayer wanting to get laid

[uWiSHuWEREash]

wow. this song is amazing, taylor swift just kills it.

[barbarax30]

i legit have an eargasm whenever i hear his voice

[animeandgamefan]

taylor swift did a good job in this song only if it were for 8 seconds she deserves it much more then lady gaga lol

[maniskov]

@animeandgamefan Yes, but not completely true. She sings the harmony in the chorus as well ("Half of my heart...."). But you mostly notice she's there in the "... can't stop lovin' you...." refrain when she's echoing Mayer. Listen again. She's more involved than you realize! ;-)

[TheOkanokazuya]

i think 102 people hit dislike button just because Taylor Swift is in this song

[kvnnn11]

@Supper2Shott Check out 101 Barz -

[Hawkproject98]

This is the song i've been trying to find for 2 months SUCCESS!!!!!

[thedivaolivia10]

101 people dont know what music is.

[nomorehate13]

taylor swift ruined an awesome song....

[Glowofmyblush]

he has SUCH a sexy voice

[meccaollielord]

@Glowofmyblush Breathes alot i suppose.

[ritzadee]

this song would be sooooooooooooo much better without taylor!

[rissyrocks123]

taylor swift just murdered this song -_-

john mayer is a god.

[Delkolovr2]

@rissyrocks123 man whore you mean???????????

[rissyrocks123]

@Delkolovr2

Hahaha, I don't think so.?(x

My friend posted that comment on my account, I like Taylor Swift and John Mayer.(x

[TheHolyphantom]

I just came to this video to hear taylor, and all there is is less than 5 or so seconds.

[bled3030]

this stuff is wack ... I know john can really rip on the guitar .. why is he holding back and playing this pussy shit.

[DJCandyManMike]

@bled3030

He's established that he's not afraid to rock your ass sensitive style. And I, for the record, really like this song.

[LucidDivinity]

I wish Taylor was given a larger part in this (I didn't even notice the first time when she came in), but I can say that I really like the harmony in the chorus.

[meaghannxx]

Half Of My Heart by John Mayer featuring Taylor Swift for 8 seconds.

[firefurzz]

It is so weird how i sound like him when i sing. Not as good of course

[mscaelabug]

i love his voice!

[Shikkjoe96]

taylor deberia cantar mas, pero detodos modos amo la cancion!

[Charnelle2013]

I love this song...John Mayer + Taylor Swift + On a track Song= AWESOME!!

[KaileeBirdProduction]

I straight up don't like Taylor Swift........ And I've tried. And I already feel bad for not liking her.... So don't make me feel worse....

[jairzinho110]

I've made a cover of this song. It's a great song from his album Battle Studies.

Check it out on my page!

[russellmania77]

taylor swift the "best" should get more time

[InnocenceNotLost]

@russellmania77 blech, no...she shouldn't even be on a good song like this...luckily her part was small.

[shabanasks]

its so weird..i like it but it seems more like a song that taylor would write and sing rather than john..lol

[AgentHurricane]

@derbiester ROFL. Awesome use of a meme.

[JKierkels]

@derbiester maybe you forgot this is a singer-songwriter song and they possible made this song together? that means she 'accepted' she only had 2 lines of text in this song..

anyhow, beaufitul song!!

[Zigabid]

@derbiester Hahhaah lmfao. Check out the videos of them i just uploaded - live. So hilarious!!!

[Esmoshka]

@derbiester Hahahah, I thought the same!

[Esmoshka]

@derbiester Hahahaha, I was gonna post the same but you beat me to it :D

[Delkolovr2]

@derbiester LMFAO! THUMBS UP!

[kvnnn11]

@derbiester Lol

[TheOkanokazuya]

@derbiester lol soooo true

[paolajm12]

@derbiester why not? she is a great singer!!! =][=

[TheStaravia]

@derbiester totally right:D

[JohnRhysMusician]

@derbiester Actually the country guitar is her playing.

[guitarman12000]

@derbiester LMAO that made my day!

[blank1210]

john mayer is amazing. He is beyond talented. His music is powerful.. all his songs hit straight home to me...he is an amazing gutiarist

[encoreprincessboo89]

half of my heart's got a grip on the situation, half of my heart takes time - nicely put mr.Mayer =]!

[MrTayseh]

i love taylor!

[NessaLoveWoahxP]

Taylor should have gotten half of the song :)

[lillyrainfall]

i luv it!!!!!!!!!



[bellababy132]

@ak231510 alot of artists have diffrent types of music, why don't we just all agree on that?

[ak231510]

@bellababy132 yes you are right, that is not the issue. There is just a large difference that I wish more people would understand about all music. Strumming A-minor,C-major, and G-major as so many band do is about as basic as you can get, people like swift who do that or even band who only play three note power chords,. I just wish more people appreciated and could separate the ones like Mayer who are just so far beyond that with their music, compared to the ones who still toil with the basics

[MusicalRelease]

@ak231510 Hahaha, I totally feel you man. Before I picked up the guitar, I would always think these wannbe "artists" and "bands" getting radio time were so deep into the understanding of their instruments and music...MAN WAS I WRONG!

Now that I have some understanding about the guitar, its way different whenever I listen to music. Tired of these power chord(which are only 2-3 noters), basic A and E chord strumming losers.nothing awesome about them at all...and their singing sucks to..no passion
