I like this. As a musician I can appreciate different versions of songs and I'm sure Tom would be honored with this version of he and Jeff Lynne's song.
BloodyReaper11... While I appreciate that you are entitled to your opinion, others, including me, are also entitled to disagree with you. I am not the biggest John Mayer fan, but the guy is talented and in this case he did the song his way and while it might not be to your or everyone's taste, it did not sound like crap and he certainly did not kill the song. Grow up and permit others to have their opinions..!
Ok 1: he didn't reinvent the song. He made it sound like crap. 2. i made my comment because it's the truth. I dont have anything againts covers but when a singer makes a cover and just kills the song he should be told that he sucks. most singers can't sing multiple types of music. So before you try to tell someone to "trake the dick out of your mouth" maybe yopu should understand that not everyone worships those same sloppy seconds hacks that you seem to.
@BloodyReaper11.. dude i'm all for originals.. but get a clue man.. he reinvented this song in the best way.. tom petty's version was great, but get his dick out of your mouth and open your eye's. you stupid unrealistic fuck.
imagine how this comment makes you feel.. now imagine intelligence.. oh wait.. might want to hit up wiki for that one moron.
@emilyscottmyrealname sorry for hating on a singer that sounds the same as every other and tries be like all the others. Tom petty sounds nothing like this because he did his own thing. John mayers a good guitarist, but he sounds the same. Go to starbucks
Thanks to tom Petty for writing that song and thanks to John Mayer for making a solid cover. Beautiful notes that makes you forget where you are for just a couple of minutes.
Well, maybe he has a good taste of music...but that's all. no talent in singing, no talent in playing guitar, theres nothing special about him. Just one of the many million musicians of this world...
@WerHatDieKokosnuss What!? Even though words can't really describe it..there is definitely something special about him. maybe it's the thing that some people call charisma...man i can't believe it..."no talent"...
@WerHatDieKokosnuss ....no talent in playing the guitar? please shoot yourself in the head bec of that statement...best guitar player of our generation
@rden94 Because belting is bad for the voice. Also, I think belting the chorus don't go well with the rest of the song style-wise. I'm not a huge fan of Mayer and I think this performance was one of his less good ones but I think you need to realize that vocal talent is not about high notes, it's about understanding the voice and draw advantage of it. Thanks
Yes, Tom Petty wrote it so y'all would think his is better (I agree with that) but give mayor a break. It's not his fault he has good taste in music too. (:
@Jenni8785 There's only a live version of this song. The original is by Tom Petty, that one has a studio version, but it's a totally different version hahahaha.
I love this song! There was a time when I just had to listen this song even thougt I had to cry everytime I hear it because of lovesickness. If I hear it now I remember that time but I'm smiling ♥
Check out these two Irish dudes cover of this song, its pretty sweet....i actually challenge you not to enjoy it!!! :) just type in "free fallin cover alter ego"
@stpatsgirls ooh so jealous that you even had the possibility to be at a john mayer concert!!! xD i'm living in germany so i can hardly ever experience him live without traveling a long distance...
there is no way to show how much i love this video, and John Mayer :) -3
