[pantera6]

pretty positive that i am the one yelling at 1:58 , fuck yeah

[JoshOharaDrums]

@TheAdrinGold actually bud, i think you will find its the second verse and the bridge. If you watch john mayer at berklee you'll find out.

[BondsMusic]

this is genious. one of the most beautiful vocal/guitar song's i've ever heard.

[TheAdrinGold]

On Mayer's Berklee Clinic he said ''the public is about 300 million times smarter than you.'' He should recognize the fact that the fans love this song and since we're about 300 million times smarter than him, he should do everyone a favor and just put it on Born and Raised. Thumbs up if you agree !!!

@TheAdrinGold

I actually don't agree. :)

I've seen it happen so many times before - putting something this precious on a record will ruin it's magic.

[novanine9]

@TheAdrinGold - Actually, there's good reason. It's not all quite there, yet. it's the chorus not having the proper dynamic and flow.. I would imagine that he is working on it

[chandlerhi]

@drdmento he got it from stevie ray vaughan, and him from jimi hendrix

[drdmento]

love this song! I don't think I'd ever want it on a record though... this along with songs like "The Hurt" and "Man on the Side" I see as songs for the "real fans... " ones that are out there, but you only really know about 'em if you delve deeeep into the Mayer catalog... Also, this is one of the first times I've noticed him not using the "thumb over the neck" technique... interesting...

[RyanHigaftw]

@drdmento There is really no need for it here. Those chord shapes are best suited for this style.

[YouNeedMani]

The lyrics are so fucking powerful.

[vanessaIB]

THE BEST !

[GARETH9]

The song doesn't fit with the Battle Studies feel. But then again neither does Who Says. Regardless, excited for this one to be recorded in studio!

[blink182281knilb]

@GARETH9 it's not going to be recorded. he said in an interview that he isn't going to

[davidp899]

@blink182281knilb provide a link or youre full of shit

[blink182281knilb]

@davidp899 look up John Mayer MSM interview part 2. its there

[hersheykissie12]

Your quality is amazing. Thanks for posting!

[JMaust94]

CAN"T believe this isnt on an album. This is one of my favorite songs by HIm.

[HalfBillion]

I would love to hear Coldplay cover this, I feel like Chris Martins voice was born for this song. However, JM is awsome.

[lukeism2]

seriously, why isn't this on battle studies???, is it at least on a single??

[unplugged89]

Doesn't really fit in with the Battle Studies "heartbreak handbook" style I think. It should be on record somewhere though, I totally agree with that.

One of my favourite JM songs, it's so pure and honest.

[hersheykissie12]

@unplugged89 Seriously so honest!! The whole song compositionjust so perfect for that lonely feeling! I love it SO much.

[GGPunk]

I was there for this show! so good!

[chicophi235]

Kills me this didn't end up on Battle Studies.

[adamsimonsmusic]

I want this on a record dammit!

[VandyBomber97]

great fucking song first comment
