Something's Missing by John Mayer

[anx365]

guys. shut up about your "knowledge" of music. just shut up.

[Marsoki]

how they muted the crash cymbal at 3:14?

[OMERTA011]

@Marsoki lol nice catch.. they didnt.. its a error in editing of the vid probably...

peace

[2010lanzban]

I love how he explains the meanings of his songs before each performance, john mayer the ultimate love lyricst

[bbonta]

Has anyone else noticed he has a thing with Tuesdays? he mentions it here. and he mentions it in one of the AS/IS album's for "Clarity" "And i will worry about it, when i find out what 'it' really is, Dont be scared about next Tuesday, Tuesday hasn't happened yet and the summer isn't over... they will tell you so but summer isnt over... no no no"

[JusWrightDogs]

INCREDIBLE song. Ahhh, back in the days when John cared more about GREAT MUSIC than banging the next Hollywood "It girl."

[m12motormike]

John its very simple your just missing love

[TheZacharyG]

uh no @utubebighead

I listen to john mayer, not whatever that is

[utubebighead]

anybody remember another song called SOMETHINGS MISSING .......it has lyrics like........i don`t feel at home, so i`ve got to roam, to find an answer in my life....somethings missing, girl.

[AnaJu86]

OMG! John Mayer and his guitar...

[deanomania]

this video has been overdubbed. watch at 3:10 - you don't hear him crash the cymbal to his left.

[TheGladDaddy]

@deanomania I wouldnt say overdubbed, move like edited wrong. When the changes shots from John to Dala and Steve, he hits the cymbol a beat later. Editors are human after all.

[ineptunes01]

@deanomania I can't watch the video anymore because of that find haha

[jpaenga]

mush mush mush mush mush

[Cbluesrocker]

Guys, cmon! I love Steve Jordan and J.J. Johnson. But this drummer is not bad at all. He's actually really good. Nice and simple (which is what Jordan likes). I really like the tone from his snare too!

[JayM1646]

With garbage music like Ke$ha and Lady gaga

John Mayer is single handily keeping real music alive this day in age

[marvelboy04]

who is the other guitarist?

[Eliminator5555]

@marvelboy04 The other guitarist is Michael Chaves.

[MrUnseenBucket]

What amp is he using?

[chronoisworking]

this gig was way before mayer and Steve Jordan crossed paths. stop being so elitest! Chopeck is the drumming sound of early mayer, home roots, band of mates trying to make it. Oh and listen to chopeck play on This Will All Make Perfect Sense Someday (the song, not the documentary) he does have some tasty ideas, if the execution isn't perfect. Hes doing moeller technique, and he's holding the tempo.

[packernation12]

theres a reason he ditched chopeck a looonng time ago

[IchMagSechs]

this drummer sucks, wel he doeesnt suck. But its Stve's song, i would have even settled for JJ Johnson but NO.

[calangodoido]

One of his best songs!

[I66Mhz]

Stop to scream like retards, beatches!!

[ksnaddyk]

i hate the stupid girls screaming without listening.

[cuneeda1950]

Jesus Christ is Missing John

[DavidCookFan146]

Best. Musician.

[TheFifthTake]

I thought he was about to say "Say hello to STEVE JORDAN."

[AndrewTPerrin]

@TheFifthTake I wish, Steve Jordan kicks this drummers ass

[livelauqhl0v3]

5:05 to the 6:15... PURE BADASS AWESOMENESS.

[Johnnybomb1]

"Over the counter test for Loneliness"Fucking Genius

[Lila12380]

VIVO ENAMORADA DE ESTA CANCION Y DE LA PERSONITA QUE LO CANTA.

[keithschubert]

the other guitarist is real good. Great tone, he fits perfectly

[axeman249]

maybe if i start making faces like that, i'll be better at guitar... 

[BrandonColon]

how come everything I think I need, always comes with batteries!! forgot that part but still awesome.

[MrPauloivan]

5 people don't know what they're missing

[Cbluesrocker]

@MrPauloivan neither does john...

[crankedamp]

I think he wore those pants in case he'd fell out of a plane so he could save his talent!

[scarletstarletx]

he's got a torso/stomach i would love to kiss all over ;P

[howardmcgill]

love this song, and dvd, glad he got new pants! haha

[McFilipa30]

just shut up and listen to this beautiful and stunning man!

[psycohockeyfan]

This song NEEDS Steve Jordan... 

[nvs617]

@psycohockeyfan EVERYONE needs Steve Jordan... There is no drummer in the world that has the same pocket that Steve has :)

[RhythmBureau]

@nvs617 steve gadd. max weinberg..

[nvs617]

@RhythmBureau Umm.... Yeah you must not know who Steve Jordan is if you're comparing him to Max Weinberg.... And Steve Gadd as good as he was still can't compare to Steve Jordan

[supatol]

@nvs617

Steve Jordan is brilliant, but ever thought of Steve Gadd? He's got the best groove of all, by far

[nvs617]

@supatol Steve Jordan is better than Steve Gadd.

[supatol]

@nvs617

Haha, ok. If you think so =P

[DejanMalzarkov]

@nvs617 They're both great drummers but Steve Gadd is Steve Gadd :)

[fmrat]

@nvs617 gadd

[rrz8]

@nvs617 o no? you think hes the best drummer in the world? hahah... if u only knew about music...

[nvs617]

@rrz8 Yeah maybe before you come at my knowledge of musicianship, you should learn how to read... I never said he was the best drummer, I said that he has a pocket like no other drummer... That statement doesn't even insist he has the best pocket. And for your info I'm a 3rd semester student at Berklee, so I'm pretty sure I know a lot more about music than you....

[rrz8]

@nvs617 First of all if your going to school to be a musician your a dumbass & would never get anywhere in life... 90% of famous musicians didnt go to a music university & became famous you idiot its all about connections & being in the right moment at the right time....... you know about music? when your parents work for record labels such as universal you let me know..... until then dont try to impress me with your "student knowledge" at Berklee haha plz....

[nvs617]

@rrz8 Lol Wow someone's upset... If you wasn't such an ignorant person, you'd understand that students don't go to Berklee to learn about music. You have to have knowledge in order to get in. i'm at Berklee because I want to craft and perfect my skill with my instrument. Not everyone craves to be famous, so you sound really stupid and ignorant assuming I'm here to make it in the industry. Even John Mayer himself admits his time at Berklee helped him grow as a muscian. Music is all about growth

[natamayer]

i don't understand how someone could be so perfect....so beautiful.

[pathorne1]

I don't care what anybody says, he is the greatest of ALL-TIME.

[ShayLeslie11]

Any way to delete his commentary in the beginning of this vid and just start Live with the song??

[Johnnybomb1]

Bitches need to Shut up and actually listen to him.

[nesselegant08]

i love this song..its so deep...john is a genius

[MoniqueSoFly92]

"Let's hear it for me"

I love you John.

[TomasE94]

The second guitar player must feel an orgasm every time he played with john

[bothfbsWDE]

steve jordan does this better...the trio version is better...

[bjhMus1C]

@bothfbsWDE no shit steve jordan is better.. this was when he was just starting out, before he got as big as he is today

[bothfbsWDE]

@bjhMus1C I know that. 

[alsgh422]

anyone know what strat that is? looks like either '62 AVRI in LPB but not really sure...

[bjhMus1C]

@alsgh422 96 SRV signature strat. first real guitar he ever bought.

[alsgh422]

@bjhMus1C ...are you joking? SRV strat is sunburst with black pickguard SRV engraving on it. either you don't really know about guitars or you're color blind...because that's clearly a lake placid blue.

[bjhMus1C]

@alsgh422 lol, calm your shit dude.. i just guessed

[psycohockeyfan]

@alsgh422 The SRV on Stevie's pickguard was not engraved. They were holographic stickers.

[cowboycliche022]

@alsgh422

It's a custom-made Strat/Tele hybrid made by the nice folks at Fender CustomShop for John alone.

[alsgh422]

@cowboycliche022 that's the one built for the Trio tour...in this video that's no strat/tele hybrid. that's clearly a strat. I'm just wondering which strat model that is. highly likely AVRI '62 strat in LPB but the fretboard color looks like Pao-ferro instead of standard rosewood...

[cowboycliche022]

@alsgh422

You know what, you're right.

I just assumed it was the strat/tele hybrid because that's what I'm used to seeing him play it with, but now that I look at the guitar, it is definitely a strat.

In that case, you're probably right.

Sorry for the mistake.

[alsgh422]

@cowboycliche022 no need to apologize since now he only uses the strat/tele hybrid for Something's Missing I think...

[EricaPapad]

omgd when he lifts his guitar and taps on the microphone ! that is THE CUTEST thing ever :p..he is sucha genious...!

[vefepa]

lembrerei de vc sempre

Je t'aime juste que ... Merci pour votre apparue dans ma vie Marco

[RideLXbindings]

that "asain dude" was John's teacher at Berklee, Tomo Fujita. He is an amazing player.

[Garethbanae20iou]

Come on we know its a john mayer show....but a bit of camera work on the asian dudes solo!!

[RideLXbindings]

@Garethbanae20iou that "asian dude" was John's teacher at Berklee, Tomo Fujita. He is an amazing player.

[Garethbanae20iou]

@RideLXbindings Wow really? didnt know that, thanks for the info

[GriffinBarr]

"That was a Holiday reference in the middle of the summer" Great stuff :)

[Jaylasplenty]

This song reminds me of the book "The Missing Piece" by Shel Silverstein. I love both. 

[Nitrousoxide2k]

In that tuning (it's a very different one), almost anything sounds amazing. Just ringsssssss

[marynor09]

love the part from @6:55

[marynor09]

Friends -check- Money -check-

A well slept -check- Opposite sex -check- Guitar -check- Microphone -check- Messages waiting for me, when i come home

[Haslamrocks]

This song speaks to literally EVERYONE because no matter where you are in life it can always feel that somethings missing or out of place. John Mayer you are my idol!

[matwior]

beautiful..his riffs are epic

[thekz4444]

JMazing!

[colt45defy]

Seriously I'm trying to listen the the music, I get it. You love John Mayer. SHUT UP!

[jtst4]

John Mayer is amazing!! his guitar solo...simply amazing. true talent right there. you can just feel it and it takes you away!

[trynuxxx]

3 dislikes??? DAMN you guys don't know what music is ?

oh god! that's the why there's lots of things like Bieber, Britney Spears.. etc

[TheFluffyWhiskers]

The Age Group here! some can speak out while others remain SILENT~~~What is in YOUR HEART DOES MATTER ~~~SPEAK OUT There is Much Love awaiting somewhere in a Hidden Place Go Find This to fill the VOID thats what is missing YOU ARE SO LOVED in the Places with the Right People We are Out Here. Much Love To You All,Run From the emptiness and fill it with GOOD THINGS Pick a Flower and share it with ANOTHER!! ~~Fluffy~~~

[chemoi26]

somethings not really missing in john mayer's songs..a truly genious musician

[iliachulsky]

Man I miss Dela :(

[oliverandm]

Oh you guys nagging about the girls, let em scream man! It makes it all the more fun! Imagine if it was just quiet... i mean come on, you're just annoyed cause you're annoyed - and NO they aren't only there because they think he is hot, they probably do like his music, hence the singing along! Just be grateful there is even sound and Mayer don't have some copyright infrigement going on here on YouTube

[joeglimmix]

shut up girls...shut up shut up shut up

[squierkid]

the drummer should play with joe satriani , and a bold bass player

[JulezG101]

6:03 lol.

This guys a legend.

[kirkMason82]

cymbal crash is missing at 3:14 ... pi!

[devdhieuQA]

i loved him tonight , he was amazing! (L)

[dandical]

he must get real pissed off that the majority of his fans are 40 year old american housewifes.

[AnneTUDUDUDU]

He has the same extase thingy around himself as Gary Lightbody, the singer of Snow Patrol, the happy awkward way to do things, I don't know a word for it, but it gives me goosebumps. He's just a real artist, enjoying the things he's making.

[pathorne1]

greatest of all time.

[xoheartableox]

favorite line of his little opening... "something's missing, because sometimes it just is..." <3 I love you John Mayer. Can't wait to see you in August!

[Boss44221]

You know your good when you wear those pants and still get all the ladies.

[drummerdood11]

@Boss44221 or when you make those faces...hahaha

[stagm3]

@Boss44221 ur so fuckin lame, lol

[MingoCue]

@stagm3 l0l d00d h3s s0 l4me

[acdeucee]

This entire concert is Brilliant!!!

[masteroftheobvious86]

Does anyone else think this drummer looks really awkward and uncomfortable?

[aguyinpostfalls]

@masteroftheobvious86 If I could play with a drummer as solid as this guy, I wouldn't care what he looked like..

[bbrunskill]

@aguyinpostfalls solid? this guy spends the whole show speeding up. someone needs a metronome!

[melissav6]

he is the man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[patio6]

Awesome musician but seriously spot the dude in the audience lol

[Cbluesrocker]

@patio6 well that was before anybody knew he could play guitar. All the guys at the concert were "getting popcorn" for their gfs.

[MrWillweave]

@patio6 wheres waldo!?

[Ibanezguy123456789]

Man I like the Drummers rocky edge.

[JayDeeMcMillan]

The bass player from a distance looks like Mick Grundel who was Jeff Buckley's bass player haha but i know it's not lol

[samaldi01]

I'd do him

[AnonymousWhitePerson]

Great Song.

[Giablo1]

haha. its so wierd to see him not nearly as good at guitar as he is now.

[InkedAffinity13]

7:14 is almost as if he over projects a little more than he would like to, but my god what an incredible, booming vocal that is!

[johnnnybruce]

@InkedAffinity13 Yeah, I know what you're saying. I love that technique, he uses it on man on the side too.

[Laurelsson]

JM is great, but needs to play and create rather than speak. Stick to what u know & do best JM.

[DreadfulSolemnity]

John Mayer is SO TALENTED.

[angieee]

@ nuge. you stop going because of little fans screaming? wow you really love the music dont cha? lol. keep on keepin on. peace.

[RuubWuub]

It's the backup guitarpart that actually makes the song imho.. intro is weak without it.

Drummer is too tight to actually put feeling in it, or is that just me?

gosh i love this song..

[robertsfootball74]

@RuubWuub he's tight but thats what the song needs. and the rhythm player does make the song but thats how it is with most of his songs. really strong rhythm and his amazing melodies over top. good ear tho

[RuubWuub]

@robertsfootball74 yeah, guess you're right about that. I guess i just wanted to see Mr Jordan in this video. Somehow, eventho the drumpart isnt really hard, he just plays it ultimately (if that is a word)

[angieee]

how is yelliing i love you disrespectful? its a freakin concert... they're probably 12 years old. whoooo cares.

[Nuge2008]

@angieee Cuz there are some people who still go to concerts these days to hear the music and to hear what the artist have to say about their music and life in general but from some god unknown reason it's become the new fad to be loud as all hell no matter what and sing and scream at the top of your longs (especially the people that can't sing) and make yourself the center of attention. Trust me I quit going because it's just so annoying now.

[Nuge2008]

@angieee lungs*

[doubletfarms]

our church just sang this song...it fit into our message!

[sirenanarcisse]

Love him!! One of my favorites by him!

[zina1randi2ko3chori]

definitely one of the best song of 21st century

[bassindeface]

a definite 21st century rock god

[AnonymousWhitePerson]

This song's lyrics are so deeply Sad and filled with Pain and Anguish.

This is beautiful.

[HeartBeatOfYourLife]

Something's Missing is NOT the pee break song! It's the 'listen closely, cause you might never hear something this beautiful again' song! :)

[AnonymousWhitePerson]

@HeartBeatOfYourLife,

I agree, Something's Missingis NOT the Pee Break Song.

It's the "Poop Break Song."

[GreyF18]

@AnonymousWhitePerson maybe you should listen to the song again...

[AnonymousWhitePerson]

@GreyF18,

I was too busy Pooping. Perhaps I will listen to it again.

[bebothegreek]

@HeartBeatOfYourLife i dont think mayer has a "pee break" song hahahahahaha

[paco43210]

@HeartBeatOfYourLife i got hard after reading this lol

[pathorne1]

Man i hear the hip-hop infleunce a little bit through the soud of the music, diversity beautiful keep blending keep blending from a true music lover... i love it all.

[pathorne1]

He killed it with his solo, the bass solo was nasty by dave, and the lead guitar was awesome, nice beautiful music they killed it..i get the shivers when i hear this....man i miss his old base player david he is way better than his current one pino. way better.......!

[jawide626]

pino is the JM trio bassist, da-la quit to move on to solo projects.

[robertsfootball74]

@pathorne1 not even close man. while i totally respect your opinion, listen to assassin and you will be blown away

[RuubWuub]

@robertsfootball74 check watch?v=mn3VHENk3uc. Eventho its a bit too fast it's so perfectly well done

[getfiasco]

favourite mayer song :)

[srolson1]

I love how he says this is a pee break song and its one of the best performances in this set

[meganadavidson]

wow

[xJuliaxxx]

Oooh gosh,

this is soo good.

I love you john!

[keithschubert]

LOVE the bridge jam!

[nesselegant]

JOHN mayer killed it!!!hes so great ...wow

[Dope999]

Look and listen closely at 3:13

The drummer hits the crash (pretty hard too) but no crash sound.. weird

[rhead89]

I love how he taps the mic when he says the line haha

[acdeucee]

If you took a leak break right now you missed one a the best songs at this concert......To bad. This song is a Masterpiece

[pathorne1]

I love the bass line, what happen to his early bass player, why did he change on his later albums. He kills it on his early albums.

[mattkyle777]

Dela, Stephen Chopek and Michael Travis are all studio musicians. They're all rock solid and very straight-forward-thinking. When he moved onto the Trio, he wanted people that would push him outside of the box a little so Pino (even though he's a studio musician as well) was more blues based as was Steve Jordan who has played with Boz Scaggs. After that, he's played with more musicians who have solo careers like Rob Macintosh and Rob HUnter who played with Vertical horizon. He has changed a lot

[Johnnymay86]

Specifically the line;

"I can't be sure that this state of mind is not of my own design. I wish there was some over the counter test for loneliness."

[acdeucee]

That is also my very Favorite line in this song...It gives me chills...Thought I was the only one that found this line to be AMAZING!!

[Johnnymay86]

When I hear this song, I hear someone contemplating suicide. When this album came out there was a photoshoot (I want to say Rolling Stone) of John in a tub with a bunch of electronic devices (including his guitar I believe).

I know that may not be the intent, but if you listen to it you can hear someone basically saying they know something is wrong... but they can't figure out what. And it really bums him out, mentally and in his soul.

[MrYoutopia]

what drug was he on during this concert? I love it.

[acdeucee]

This concert is my drug...Im hooked

[OwensMusic1]

what about that horrible shirt!

[greaxuu]

That drummer's groove is so far from steve jordan's. Too tight, no lay back

[Ellusionist15]

Dude, I agree soooo much! haha

[lolasluv]

BEAUTIFUL. just PERFECT. brings out many emotions

[les82paul]

the version on john mayer trio is amazing actually that entire cd rocks

[stagm3]

I think his best talent is his song writing

[deazani]

nothing better than him...

[JissMUSIC92]

kaligy83 i totally agree! this is soo freaking beuatifull it seriously almost made me cry..

John mayer.. You def are a genious!
