[daliksheppy]

@jaimico777 Sounds like hendrix

[TheLonesomeChef]

@jaimico777 I'm 99.99% its a song he was making for Battle Studies called "Rock Song". He mentioned it once via twitter. Too bad he hasn't released it. This, my friend, is all we have from that song.

[FreaquedeMusique]

[wakojako99]

i've been driving myself mad trying to figure out the song he's playin. I can play the damn thing, but no idea what it is! can anyone help me?? i know every guitarist to watch this vid wants to know. I can barely make out the words through john's voice. please, if anyone has any ideas, speak!!!!

[senex3]

@wakojako99 can u please tab it? or just give me a short descr on chords? has he tuned his guitar differently?? would be very much appreciated!!

[MonoCabron123]

The tune at 0:44 should've got in the record. Is kickass!

[XDAnnaCathrine]

Is this Mayer's house?

[FreaquedeMusique]

wow.. john mayer playing a les paul...

om(f)g...

[Oceres]

Is that Les Paul with humbuckers or P-90's? Cool tune they're jamming :D

[playmovingpictures]

great stuff john your king

[mofemobile]

0:08 SUPERSONIC!!

[MBenya1994]

home depot lamp!!

[mofemobile]

zomg he used a supersonic?!?!

[TwinkeeSTiD]

I'd like to hear more of what he's playing around 0:44

[tubingforever]

Me too. Probably was a tune that didn't make the cut. Super funky though.

[KCVolcom]

@TwinkeeSTiD Yes, anyone who can learn by ear. get on it! Is it definitely an original riff though?

[SpeeDSTX]

@KCVolcom I don't think its an original riff, you can hear the original song starting at 0:08 then at 0:42 Mayer's cover riff of that song! WHAT IS THAT SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[KCVolcom]

@SpeeDSTX To me it sounds like it's a pre-recorded backing track as John's singing over it but you might be right.

[BW9191]

I can't believe the whole house a recording studio.. thats so freakin cool

[mvw5555]

ok at 46 where the hell did he get that shirt?

[skyridden]

Hey Mayer..WHERE'S THE SONG AT :46?!?!?!!!?!??!

Work it out. Figure it out. Get it out. The fans demand it. Live show staple, okay. But get it out for purchase!

[AlanDavidMusic]

Ya it sounds really cool. He using a Les Paul too, never seen that before.

[xoWakeUpCallox]

Yea , he is a lash x-o

[timothyjongmans]

love the part @ 0.46

[zimmoframen]

@timothyjongmans same, so gutted it's not on the album..

[jacoboy123]

The house should be on Cribs

[ManUnitedBoy7]

release date?

[mppow97]

November 17th

[GawdGood]

Europe November 14th

[laughingmandude]

I already have it if you want it...but if you don't want it then I don't have it lol

[ManUnitedBoy7]

offering me the pirate version?

[laughingmandude]

Regardless of piracy the album is the same both in quality and in track listing.

[laughingmandude]

But the European release already came out.

[ManUnitedBoy7]

Very nice..

[JelsGello]

It keeps us honest! XD

[marcwm21]

Yeah Radiohead used Jane Seymours mansion to record OK Computer.

[twenty3lane]

yeah i seen Blink 182 record an album using a rented out mansion...i guess if you were working all day everyday for a long period of time you'd want a comfortable place to work..shit i'd probably do the same

[craigy72]

I'm guessing that riff at 0:45 is "Rock Song" on Battle Studies.

[aseriousoffender]

that doesnt exist...

[dkings2007]

I think The Red Hot Chili Peppers already explored the home recording scenario, along with many others. old hat.

[junxchung]

If that jam JM was playing with Steve isn't on the album... Man. That'll be the greatest disappointment ever.

[aseriousoffender]

i am disappointed...

[chilleddudeor]

John, Mr. Mayer, I always appreciate your songs, they consistantly inspire me. I don't know how you are so consistant in your high quality of melody, ideas, and writing, but I certainly appreciate it. I want to consistantly inspire others through my music someday soon. Looking foward to the new album

[scoopztb]

I really dig the jam at 0:45. It awesome! I hope it is on the record!

[marcuskuip]

Me too!

[JimBesecker]

I think what her said is so true. That everyone is having a experiense in there own certain way. thats what is so cool about music. or life

[weirdotis]

What amp is that at :52? Thats not a Dumble is it?

[shoksurf]

JOHN PLAYING A LES PAUL! wooooww thats one in a thousand jajajaja ...

still.. fenders rock ;)

[bonhampala]

maybe he should start using a LP more often? his strat sound i probably the coolest i've ever heard besides jimi's, but nobody can deny that a good LP through the right fender amp just sounds amazing!

[411keykey]

HE IS HOT:)

[mayer8356]

The groove at 0:44 is so sick

[FunkCowboy]

!@#$ing right! Just two deadly musicians...(kick, snare, hat and guitar) awesome...All you wanker-jazz-nazi-gearheads pay attention...This how play COOL!!!

[atlbman19]

hell yea that groove was too sick! hope we get to hear it later on

[AbbeyNO]

Man.. Seems like you have such great life. Life as a musician seems so great

[MelleB90]

You mean: "Life as one of the few musicians that make it"

Most musicians have lives nowhere near John Mayer's :)

[AbbeyNO]

Yeah, ofc ;) Let me refrase: "Life as a sucsessful musucian"

[aronkarmusic]

Stop saying that.. musicians decide to live like they do its now about "making it" its about the music. people making music just to make it arent musicians..

[dompascarella]

who cares about all the stuff he has acquired..i care about the stuff that holds up in the end..

[IanGuitarhero]

the lamp keeps them honest :p

[AbbeyNO]

another john mayer died. jees

[DgtlDiva]

Ha! that looks like one of them heat lamps from Burger King :P

[DgtlDiva]

you sure messed up your arm :(

[letazevedo]

Lindinho! Assim mesmo, tudo em português.

Tô passando mal.

[fcbtim]

what a house eh

[sTk1189]

Wow! I can't wait this new album! the song of 0:45 it's very cool and "Heartbreak Warfare" it's really beauty, thank's John for all your music, God Bless you.

Greetings from Spain.

[senex3]

I was thinking about the riff he's playing!

[senex3]

does anyone know what johns playing at 0:45??

[sticky23764]

gibson les paul gold top

[sirfreakish]

Dunno what it is but it sounds awesome, I think it's just something new he made on the spot

[belmie]

Damn! John Mayer died? RIP John. Its truly a sad day.

[WantedZelluloid]

Is that a joke?

[SoundGardenX]

Your a fucking idiot.

[ryanlogan]

they are saying that because from what we can hear he changed his tone a little. which is alright people change and music changes. He's john mayer for crying out loud whatever he's doing is going to be monumental!! :D

[mayermusik]

No, somebody else died, and he had the same name

[dbonewell]

How could he be dead when he is still sending tweets?

[babalvg]

STOP SAYING HE'S DEAD!!!!!! It's pissing me off!!!! everybody knows he's alive!!!

anyway.. can't wait for Battle Studies to come out!

[NoSemos]

REST IN PEACE "John Mayer" _ 1977-2009

[92134885]

Why people think that john mayer is dead?!

WTF?

[ludachris475]

I can't believe you're gone!!!!!!!

[ludachris475]

RIP John Mayer.

[Syozine]

Song at 45 seconds sounded great...that drum lead in was sick. Nice studio as well.

[byttner]

michael jackson is dead not john mayer

[GhostofMichaelJakson]

"Was the best."

[EmilyfuktAlex]

super weird, creepy if you will. last night i had a dream that i met john and we were hanging out and what not... no idea why he was in my dream at all? but this morning when i started my car the first thing i hear on the radio is someone talking about who john mayer is dating now... and then one of his songs comes on. hahahha, hmmm.

[guitardvdlesson]

looks like a great studio setup!@@

LOVE IT!@

[AnonymousWhitePerson]

RIP.

[GhostofMichaelJakson]

RIP J. Mayer.

[OwensMusic1]

[fpasari]

[GhostofMichaelJakson]

[p58lp]

[Danklin24]

it looks like a rackmount line conditioner.

[liaserethguitarist12]

0.07 0.08 sic set up enit

[CFSpictures]

It must be so freakin hot to have a "home" studio, if you will. Way to go Mr. Mayer!

[rocknrollrocco91]

did someone figure out the tab for the song on 0:45?plz send or post A VID!

[theemceemurdah]

I would love to be the drummer for John Mayer!

[InTheYear1999]

All of his studio albums have been released in September. I'm pretty sure it will be released in September.

[froling12]

he is so hot!

[qwestward]

Thanks for sharing the recording process, but, if you do not record at least one song in the bathroom and/or shower stall you're not "official". :p

[spaztastic90210]

okay, is it just me or is he starting to look more and more like johnny depp?

[FoxyBia]

no, not Johnny Deep but he is still cute in his own way (mayer, that is). I like his eyes :)

[spaztastic90210]

agreed :)

[OwensMusic1]

i love the les paul peice

[GibsonGash]

mayer on a les paul ?

great :D

[HuckleberrySlim]

that is such a sick song. I cant believe it didnt exist till now! I had to replay the part in the beginning where he was blabbing (jk) to hear it. i can not wait to full on hear it. master this shit and let me have it!!!

[Mauritzz30]

actually sounds pretty familiar if you have listened to some drum n bass tracks..

[kingofska108]

anybody know when battle studies is coming out?

[SJMR94]

i heard some where september.. but don't quote me on that

[oOoitsNhi]

His voice when he's talking is a lot different from when he sings.

[aypee16]

does this mean we will be seeing more of the trio!? i sure hope so

[migsdalusong]

love the HD

[franklinterrier]

they should play that song on the tonight show tonight!!

[DontEatTheLeftovers2]

0:45

Man, that's a sick sound comin from those two. This is the kind of music i want to hear from this new album, whenever it's released

[JMfan1392]

Couldn't agree more man you're totally right

[alwaystardi]

Dude, you guys had fun! What a blessing to come home and have an entire house to just jam^_^

[BrokenDecade]

Cool, man. Just great.. Enjoy yourself and just put what is in your heart out for the world to see! Do me one thing though, BE YOURSELF! Everyone is sure to love you! :) nice dancing skills by the way.. HA

-LOVE YA MAN!

[Turb1ne]

0:44 ~

Badass hook, this is the kind of style I'd love to see Mayer implementing into his new material...

[supern00b]

reminds me of a certain radiohead song... from IR

[jbhballin33]

so is battle studies the name of the new album?

[cindyloucrim]

yea

[cascadingsquares]

mmm...so much awesome rack gear...would kill to be in that studio!

[Doud92]

0:46 !!!!! LOOKS AWESOME 8!ççç!!

[roderickcruz]

I love the commentary on the clip-on lamp.  Genius!

[nellno]

holy crap is that a les paul that mayer's holding?

[brugerper]

out of 200 guitars i think there might be a les paul :D

[chidorimendo]

naw, all fenders

[pinkprincesseliza]

wow... i'm in love with john's songs! they tell me so much about a lot of things! i just love them... they make me feel so good

[Thorious]

So this gonna be a john mayer trio album?:)

[synapsemusic]

@1:15, check the case for johnnie walker blue label 200th anniversary...$4,000 a bottle

[Sampz93]

What's the song hes playing at 44 seconds?

[0orset]

He rented a house... and of course it had to be a manison... hahahhaha.

John Mayer kicks everybody's booty

[aka1darkknight]

wow. what a house! is it john mayers's? also are they recording demo's in house THEN going to studio? I'm anticipating this album. :)

[kinney1990]

yer its his house, and the yare recording the album there

[micahsk8sremz]

hahahaha, john and a les paul.

this is a new you.

[k4she]

I liked the shot of the amps,it looks like a real warm place to create and record!

[geetaarplaya]

steve is a BOSS

[GGkinz]

DO I C Persian Rugs??? :P

[dompascarella]

anyone know what kind of piccolo snare steve jordan was using here?

[doolbro]

You're by far the most inviting celebrity out there. This is great stuff, John. Recording at home just like small bands except with big boy toys to record with.

That paul threw me for a loop, but I guess everyone experiments with different tones from other guitar. Keep playin' the blues man. That's one hell of a trio you guys are in.

[oldrockfan]

cool to see you trying different grooves and was that a Les Paul I saw you using? I'd like to see more and you have been loading a vid a week so load it up! Lets see what you are working on.

ps. I just did an acoustic version of an original my brother and i wrote. Would be awesome if you would let us know what you think.

[johnnystewartmusic]

love it

[JMBelief]

where is you next vid...

[bedavidyves]

nice sound around the 50 seconds... really kind of a not-so-now-john-mayer but it seemed like you caught other thing... cant explain! (you figured that out!)

[Chrislang1119]

Yeah, its groovy, poppy, joyful... i dont know what it is, its not JM's signature but like it a lot, i hope JM explores this kind of music in his next album!

[Heyn20]

olha pra mim!

[claptonhendrix1]

That LP looks like it could be the JB LP. I can't see so well. It sounds good.

[AlanGuzmanChannel]

Oh man, the new album is gonna be great.

it's all about the home recording studios... word ;)

[TheBeautifulArmor83]

we need more of this john, i think u should just hire a camera man to video tape the whole process and release a dvd with the album

[awestruck05]

lol "keeps us honest..."

[JMBelief]

cant stop watching this john... i like that bit you do with the Les P

aul.

[jennybennylenny]

has there been a date set for this album release?

[dompascarella]

no, but john said hopefully by the fall..

[CoDStudentServices]

Loving the longer hair John. I am drumming my fingers just waitin' for the new tunes....get with it, dude!

[yobhsiFehT]

As not only a big JM fan but as someone who's mildly obsessed w/ the studio world, this video made my eagerness for the new album multiply by like 30. Pretty much all I can think to say now is PUT OUT THE FREAKIN' RECORD, ALREADY!!!

... *achem* Sorry, um... please? :D

[mirasheisla]

I can't wait for the new album!!!

When R U coming to Brazil??? We`re all waiting!!!

[TheBeautifulArmor83]

i think your always one step ahead of other writters, always thinking of something new, your def being innovative and bringing something new to music, the internet, and what have you. i think i speek for everyone when i say its nice to get to see you working behind the scenes... itd be nice to get to see a whole jam of writting a song like u did on itunes with the video "one song, one day"... but im sure youve got some tricks up your sleeves that will blow all of our minds

[aaronjordan010388]

is the new cd gonna called BATTLE STUDIES

[swingsetgreen]

inspiring stuff. definately keeps us focussed and motivated when we know there's this to look forward to.
