@elliott604 "Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey. Water, water, water - sleep. Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey. Wake up, shake it off and repeat." Y'know... cause when you drink that much you need to drink lots of water.
this song came out a month after i broke up with my girlfriend, i listened to it non stop with my whiskey bottle and numbed the heartbreak and the cold. Thankyou John
John is such an amazing artist. He is always reenventing himself, always keeping the quality of the songs and lyrics up.
His albums are very different, but he always puts his heart in each of every song. I can't deny that the best album so far is Continuum, but he stills working towards giving the best of himself forhis fans (and for himself of course).
Congrats on the new songs, and have a fast recovery John!
i watched all your uploaded videos from JM,especially this surprised mini concert,i always envy you having that moment in life..thanks alot for the effort and posting all of it..how i wish..can u like the page in facebook,John Mayer-born and raised...?thanks!
Listen to 3:45. It definitely sounds like this is going to be electric on the album. That riff definitely sounds like it's gonna be played on an electric.
"Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey. Wake up shake it off and repeat. It's just a phase, It's not forever." Does any line ever explain college better than this?
@benthinking77 you stupid party boy this song is so far from some college hangover song. It's a shame he comes up with such brilliance and some dumb frat bro can take it for nothing at all that it actually is speaking to.
@pearlude That sometimes happens w/ HD uploads with this camera. Usually, I'll delete and upload again, but this one had so many views already. Hope you can still enjoy it.
i was expecting a a bluesed out guitar oriented album like he promised. hopefully he'll deliver like he always does. either way, i'm excited as hell about a new record.
@PeterCRissKISSgod Well, Something Like Olivia ended up being played electrically with his band at Tiger Jam... and it's a G Blues. :D. So maybe there'll be a few bluesy tracks on there. Don't forget "Running Changes n.1"
@TheLonesomeChef I personally think the harmonica sounds great and can't seem to hear electric guitar playing those parts. I bet Mayer could work some magic though.
Violetskyye, many thanks to you for these uploads. I am late to the game with these tunes but they are helping me through the final days of university!
you've made my day! wish there appeared something on JM website, there's been a lot of silence lately. I'm hoping the new record will be released in not so a distant future... any chance of sending these songs on my mail? I'm enchanted.
@violetskyye is there any way I could convince you to send me a copy of all of these? Your footage from this show...you've done the music world a real service. Absolutely incredible.
Thank you violetskyye so so much for this series of videos. Up-close, nice audio, minimal disruptions... Ahhh, my greatest appreciations. THANK YOU! Quadruple thumbs up!
@thegreat4videos Thanks so much. I almost left my camera home Saturday, because I didn't feel like carrying it, and just grabbed it at the last minute. Phew!
