Love is a Verb - John Mayer

[BondsMusic]

funny how half the crowd who "loves" john mayer finally shuts up when he says "Love...it's not something you scream."

[StockholmSyndrome08]

I'll eat my hat if there isn't a harmony over the 'show show show me' part of the song in the final recording.

Everytime I listen to this I just can't help but harmonize that part.

[MsBluessy]

Awesome , I'm waiting for ur new album .

[rmfrear]

this man is a genius

[electricalnetworks]

had been looking for this song....the other ones werent as clear ...thanks uploader...beautifully written song

[rgl3ma57]

i don't get how some people can hate a musician so much that they have to constantly bash them. Taylor Swift is talented and just because you don't like her, doesn't mean you have to hate her.

[amorrvmd]

I love you, John. And if this about Taylor, i love you more. Cause despite unpopular opinion, i think you guys were amazing together.

But please, cut your hair.

[FlaggedVideoGuy]

Poor john got a granuloma on his throat GET WELL SOON BUDDY

[Paola5567]

I love, love this song :) yeah!!! Go Johnny, go!

[rgl3ma57]

JM said that his new album should be known by october, not out by october.

[TheHix24]

Can we please stop with the Taylor Swift stuff. Just because he was nice and txt'd her back a few times doesnt mean they dated or were ever in a commited relationship like the rag mags claimed. I dont know JM but I believe he would never write an "answer" song to get back at someone.

[4TheMus1c]

@TheHix24 I completely agree. just enjoy the music

[00watermelon]

"Love ain't a drug/despite what you heard"- Ke$a- You're Love Is My Drug

"Love ain't a thing"- Mine- Taylor Swift

:)

[Luah20]

Chupa Taylor Swift!!!

[bluesguitarfan100]

Born and Raised is coming out in October. I heard John say it in one of the videos of him at Hghline Ballroom.

[sunny4lady]

This is def. one of my fav. of all the new unreleased JM songs - I get this feeling that he wrote this song for someone he cared about. You really feel the emotion when he sings this...its like he singing this for someone specific. Love it!

[kekeduck]

Taylor Swift has made 4 new accounts and disliked this.

[ha2ki2an]

Tabs!!!

[samuelallenmusic]

Hey, I tried to cover this song, Tell me what you think, its on my page

[bryannunesmusic]

I wonder if this was inspired by Incubus's "Here in my Room"

[jsmit460]

@bryannunesmusic That's exactly what I was thinking!

[JesseRMeyer]

@jsmit460 E A B E, or sometimes E A B C#m

[marieview]

@bryannunesmusic I thought the same. "Your love is a verb here in my room"

[lamberttre]

I'M SO PUMPED FOR "Born and Raised"

[TheSkinParade]

so amazing, can't wait for this album

[giannibb313]

for anyone who was there, how did you know about the show?

[surfer1211]

@giannibb313 I wasn't there but it was on his website. You had to write a paper either about PTSD or you/a family members struggle with PTSD and if yours qualified you were allowed to purchase up to two tickets, between $250-500 each (I think.) Since I couldn't produce any story in relation to PTSD or get that kind of money, I bought Tiger Jam tickets! Awesome show from JM and Keith Urban.

p.s. Seriously cannot wait for Born and Raised!!

[giannibb313]

@surfer1211 Yeah Tiger Jam looked fantastic. I've heard rumors Born and Raised is coming out in October, has any reliable source confirmed that?

[surfer1211]

@giannibb313 I personally haven't read that its true other than what I've read from people posting on YouTube. But there is a video on his (JMs) Youtube page where his with his new drummer (Aaron Sterling) at Electric LadyLand Studios. AS is doing a live delay drum video, very awesome! But the fact that they're in the studio tells me something has to be coming soon! I'm hoping at least haha

Here's the link. Check it out!!

[valinhus]

Best song in the new album!!!

[adunavant12]

@blueridge7 HE'S MAKING A NEW ALBUM!?!? :O my day just got soooo much better. <33 oh my goshh i hope he does.

[Dukes1787]

@adunavant12 It comes out this fall. "Born And Raised" is the title track.

[blueridge7]

@catsof1981 where did you find that out? I heard he's making a new album but that's all i know! ... I wanna know more!

[5ard5]

@catsof1981 born and raaised is the title of the album so im sure itll be on there

[visaopsicodelica]

great song, how i find in music format?

[wietley]

This is the kind of song everyone wants to write

[MsJoyfee]

Really like this song so I made a cover. Take a look at it ,please!Hope you'll like it! :)

[MrCliffsboy]

john mayer is class but this sounds like a poor version of shine by david gray ....

[mrsweetear]

@MrCliffsboy Completely different songs in every way. I personally prefer the upbeat sound of Love is a Verb. Shine is a beautiful song but it's a whole other feeling all the way through.

[MrCliffsboy]

@mrsweetear yeah i agree really ,its just i had not heard this song coz iv not listened to john mayer recently and i had been playing david gray and straight away i could hear shine when love is verb came on but i suppose u can say that about alot of songs, both brilliant singer/songwriters two of my fav artists both pure class ,uv got good taste cheers.

[PatClapp]

I think the chords are E C#m B E then E A B E

[daanborges]

@PatClapp i think its just E/G# C#m B E/G#

[PatClapp]

@daanborges put a video up, check it out

[daanborges]

@PatClapp hmm, makes sense, i guess the timing its not exactly that, but the A sounded good to me

[GivenSessions]

not trying to come across as a better songwriter at all because this guy is amazing and i love the song none the less but, "love ain't a phrase, love is verb" would sound nicer possibly?

[alEE4l]

I just realized that this was your 83rd video. Time to go celebrate by listening to "83" :D

[orchids86]

Loving this song. Thanks for these :)

[krodec1]

this is the perfect song to dedicate to that one person who could never understand why saying i love you isn't enough... this song is simply genius

[maryee222]

simple. profound. lyrically rich- musically perfect.

[simons56201]

My new favorite JM SONG!!! I LOVE YA JOHN! (As a verb!)

[geezloueeze]

JM certainly can come up with songs that get right down to the heart of the matter. ("No Such Thing", "Gravity", "Clarity", and that "Anything less than 'I love you' is lying" song, are other examples of this, IMO.)

[geezloueeze]

"Love ain't a THING. Love is a verb". As a teacher, and former nanny, I can't tell you the number of times I've seen parents do this backwards. They mean well, but parenting is rarely, if ever, convenient. It takes commitment and self-sacrfice. An investment of one's self. Children need love, structure and guidance more than they need the newest toy or pair of tennis shoes.

[luvprnce1999]

I LOVE LOVE! ; ) Thanks, JM!

[johnnystewartmusic]

Man On The Side / Come Back To Bed vibe from this.. :)

[doctorpuff87]

BIG LOVE <3!

[sejtur]

Beautiful (y)

[liiv24]

i was there too!! i LOVED THIS SONG! so glad you recorded it!

[DonnaFirsty]

Thank you, Mandi dear. You always come through for your JM friends. :) Mwah!

[iJen6]

I can show you love!!!!!!!!

[jerushabb]

Oh John, this is exactly what I needed. <3 (Thank you for recording this!)

[64ccd]

I'm sure I wasn't the only person in the world looking for this song today ^^

I've been searching youtube on and off all day. Thank you for stimulating my JM-abstinence.

[ljm78]

Love it :)
