this song makes me think of my girl . we've been in a long distance relationship now for close to two years. i'm in southern illinois and she is five hours away in iowa , this song just sums up our situation. love you cris.
i see where your coming from but i somewhat disagree. He just has his own unique style that you need a certain taste to appeal to but that just my opinion
in the beginning it's like he's uncomfortable singing and not playing the guitar at the same time. he keeps grabbing the mic and fiddling his hands. ?
Now, what if you met someone that saw you for who you are. But, both were taken; had such a good time talking but it had to end. and one of them loved roses.. to ly in.. to put in her hair. etc. dream and then wake up... and that one person isn't there...
This song is awesome. It pretty much describes what I'm going through right now. When i first heard it it made me feel sick because it was so true for me. I love it but hate it at the same time. She'll never be mine...
Yep. in my situation, we never really got together but we were very close. She was totally interested in me and i in her but something went wrong... on her part. Now she won't call me or answer my calls. I looked at your page and i totally agree with your number one rule. Right on.
loser excuses big time here. "something went wrong on her part"?? sounds like you never made a move player! probably some internet affair anyways hehe. later loser.
you are an idiot to take a break for "your parents sake" you expect us to understand that?? do not let anyone interfere with love..who cares if they are your parents. they sound like assholes. do what is right for YOU! and grow the fuck up.
would you date someone who goes by "liquidgordon" ..come on man. she doesn't want you...there is someone out there for you. meanwhile, i will bang her! or some other cooler dude than you.
you're a jerk, dude. how old are you, twelve? why would you say this kind of stuff to people? you must have really low self esteem to try and ruin someone else's day by saying this kind of crap. why should it matter to you how other people deal with relationships?
i hate people like you. how about you grow up, and be mature enough to at least understand other people's situations. what if frayifiedforava's parents threatened to kill her if she didn't "take a break"? you don't know the circumstances so shut the hell up. i would hate to be you. you must have no friends. either that or you're friends are all just like you.
what if her parents threatened to kill her? HAHA! well that is a problem buddy. if you love someone you don't let anyone get in your way and i seriously fucking doubt they threatened to kill her. were you this whiny and emotional with the girl who dumped you? don't dwell on me...go get a backbone and be a man. that attracts girls. PS: i am not single like you : )
u know wut? if ur gunna be like that about this amazing song, if u hate it so much, y do u keep commenting? just stop so that the normal people who r here to listen to good music can enjoy it!
i am so sick of meddling halfwits posting me. read my fucking comments asshole. i NEVER said anything about disliking this song. My girlfriend and I like it very much. I like the artist. it is a good song! so shut the fuck up you stupid idiot. do you get it?? I never said shit all about the song!!
well thank you very much. i have the biggest smile on my face right now, and i'm laughing at this dollarbob kid. and btw, i'm 18.... not necessarily a kid;)
♥♥♥ luvv it♥♥♥ i first heard it on the radio and i was like wat the heck is this[i didnt like it] and then the next time i heard it i actually listened to and i was so moved
I fell in love with my dream girl but it seemed like she was intressted in some other guy and then for no reason this song played on the radio ,I cried rivers but now i've come over it, this song is still touching thou
i've never listened to john mayer's music. i heard this song on the radio the other day at work. i halted mid-task. i was stunned. then next thing i know, i'm crying. broken hearts suck. this song is amazing. john mayer just gets it, not many guys do. this song made me an instant fan. 5/5 <3 this song.
i mean expressing his feelings thorugh music which is a great way because it lives amongst everyone! 2pac, john mayer, the temptations, ray charles, vineyard,...these are just a few that the lyrics reveals how important peoples life connect ot each other...people have sunk in too much into the bad lyrics by many artists today. dont get me wrong the music is still beautiful but this song is deep and lives even when time passes by...
dont be fools...life is emo if not...then simply your immature...get real eveyrthing is emotion! were humans not animals...live with respect! a song can be emotional or (the shortened acronym in this categorzing age we live)...emo or physical, painful, hurtful, joyful, psychological, anyhting. the sky is the limit. and john mayer is just another human expressing his talents by music but in the end were the same cause we relate!
hold up...someone called this emo.....BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! omg......did they like have ear muffs on....lol. woteva this is just one of the most beautiful songs i have ever heard. MY FAVE! ive worked it out on piano if anyone is having trouble
lol I think they meant the literal translation of emo- emotional. Don't kill them for it, they're probably 11 years old or something...this IS an emotional song. It's beautiful, but not ...."emo." Haha
how someone could call this emo is beyond me this is just straight talent and if they open their ears realize its an extremely deep song unlike that emo garbage thats on the radio
what the hell is wrong with you...this isn't emo...this is a ballad. if this is emo then so are the eagles, stevie ray vaughn, styx, def leppard, motley crue, and any other band or solo performer that has written a ballad. shut the fuck up
the first day I heard this song I cried. pulled the car over and sobbed. Today, I'm still unable to listen with dry eyes. I'll always love you, Jas. Just not well enough.
I love John Mayer's music! I saw this concert on Directv and was struck by the first piano chords--anyone else hear how much it sounds like Billy Joel's "Lullabye (Good Night, My Angel)"?
I think he should it sould go: "Is she sleeping in my bed?" instead of "Is she standing in my room?" How freaked out would you be if you woke up and your girlfriend was just standing in your room watching you sleep?
if it's true that john mayer was jessica simpson's "ex", then this song relates. why not? it has tremendous airplay alongside "i belong to me." btw, i love this song. :)
