  • @jmayercover - The added verse is:

    So I feign the attitude;

    Hell with you;

    Take it or leave me;

    but the me;

    she cannot see is wishin that I had;

    thirty something seconds baaaack;

    They make perfect sense and in my opinion make the song better than it already is.

  • a guitarist trying to sing. still heaps good though!

    old school john mayer = INSANE!

  • you cant argue with the guys singing ability listen to his live songs they sound exactly like his album work hes amazingly gifted unlike this autotune shite now a days

  • @ 1:42 the pretty blond girl is amazed!

  • lol he does have a stupid mouth when he sings looks like a retarded lizard

  • Wow, awesome song here by John Mayer. Check out my page to see my cover of it. Thanks everyone.

  • @GravityStrat spam

  • A glimpse of hope in the modern music.

  • 1:43 horny girl hahahaha

  • i dont care what my friends say about me !! but i am a huge john mayer fan! i am all about motorcycles ,tatoos, and nin! but i like this music !

  • it's such a waste that his talent is overwhelmed by his gossip between jennifer anniston....

  • i wonder how easy he can get a pusssy

  • Anybody know what the lyrics are in the added verse???

  • @jmayercover so i'm feeling out of tune, how are you? take it, or leave me. but to me, she can not... something i cant tell. The problem with improvised lyrics are that they rarely make sense (the focus is to spit out words that fit the rhythm and melody , not to actually add lines that fit the other lyrics), and since he's mostly just breathing the words rather than enounciating, its pretty much impossible to tell.

  • @CoandCaSSTB "the problem with improvised lyrics are that they rarely make sense" that's a bit of an assertion. If you improvise intuitively, the lyrics can often be more genius than if they are thought out rationally, because intuition generates insight. Basically with improvisation, if in the right state of mind, you can generate ideas that the conscious mind alone could not grasp due to the complexity. This applies not only to lyrical improv, but musical, comedic...just about any form of art

  • @jmayercover

    "So I feign the attitude, hell with you, take it or leave me. but the me she could not see was wishing that I had 30 something seconds back."

  • @jmayercover i've heard this lyrics before, it's not completely improvised... if i found it i'll type it here

  • <3 Love his voice. Amazing.

  • to be honest John mayer is my favorite musician since the beggining of his career.. i listen why georgia since 2000 and i cant get enough listening everyday :)

  • i love his hair that way! hes amazing live he doesnt need to lip sing if anyone has ever suggested that.

  • Let me tell you, boys, that is not a stupid mouth (titters behind a lace handkerchief) I was telling all the girls the other day we wish he would swing back by and visit us all again, that dear sweet young man!!

  • Great musician, but he should have listened to this song more often lately.

  • he sings very good ich finde er is ganz okay

  • he is soo silly i love him!!!!

  • love how the way they both move!! :-D

  • this song just rocks..speechless.

  • Can completely relate to this song

  • @Treaty4 Shut up.

  • 1:43 I wanna know her name.. xD

  • 1:43 my crush.. :D

  • O the describing is great.. live. So hilarious.

  • Tis song is the best love him every time he is in town I make it to every concert.

  • @phat488

    you're lucky he comes to your town, he's never been in my country at all :(

  • I don't think he's nervous, it's just because he's not running tracks so it's a little difficult for him to sing and play the guitar that's why you can see him jump around or hunch his back

  • NEW TOUR FOR MAYER NEXT YEAR!

  • John Mayer is such an inspiration to me. Early in his carreer he really wasn't the greatest singer but he made up for it with his song writing ability. I like to think that describes my music to a tee

  • @ellimist14 - lame

  • @ellimist14 That, and he just kept going! His newer stuff has better vocals, "Where The Light Is" Live in LA is simply AMAZING!!

  • @ellimist14 you and me both

  • @ellimist14 His singing is good, he has a really nice voice, you just cant fuck up with that voice, it always sounds good. He doesn't fake shit like nickelshit etc.

  • @lordvivec87 Yeah his tone is on point. But even he will admit his pitch can be lacking

  • you stupid. I dont even like John Mayer that much, and this is great!

  • FANTASTIC!!!!!!

  • the man is nervous watch the any giventthursday commentary he tells us that he sings like that when he is nervous. alot of musicians do it when they are nervous

  • JM's voice has gotten a lot better since this, it shows you how good of a songwriter he was at this stage to overcome what he lacked in vocal clarity.

  • it say's a lot when you hear a song that discribes your life's situation to the tee. score one more for me huh?

  • actually my mouth got me in trouble tooooooo.................but I don't care coz the person who doesn't like me with my stupid mouth......the door stills open............!!!!!!!don't u think

  • I totally know what you mean..

    Incredible that something so precious can be ruined by a stupid mouth

  • His voice is so hoarse in this video, and I can't say its the first time I've heard him sing this way.. I hope somethings not wrong with the vocal chords. Love his mixed up blues interpretations...

  • i love him so much, he's amazing!

  • look at the blondies >_> hmmm

  • this song is not representative of what john mayer can do, although it's right in his style. He's definitely up there, although not quite as high as the likes of SRV.

  • Mayer idolizes SRV but I don't think he would ever consider himself in the same league as him.

  • who is srv??

  • Steve Ray Vaughn. John idolizes him.

  • @Dolpnbabe True... he has been mis-quoted as saying he was the new SRV, but despite sometimes saying the wrong things, JM just isn't that much af an a-hole. :)

  • shut the fuck up try seeing him live he is amazing and comes up with amazing solos why dont u take ur lame ass thoughts and shove em rite up where they fit nicely

  • John Mayer is one of the most talented musicians to this dayy. you dont have to be an ass because its not your style of music, there are millions of other fans out there that apperciate what he has done.

  • The tolling stone?

    ;)

  • haha the tolling stone :P

    anyways, John Mayer is a musical god, he is truly amazing.

    he created his own song and has very meaningful lyrics.

  • I meant his own sound but yeah he does write his own songs.

  • ok well this guy isnt close to srv or jimi hendrix

    but im not going to like hes fucking amazing

  • u seen the john mayer trio at all?... he's deffinately got a better voice then both those musicians, he can play the blues and another plus... he's not dead.

  • JM has proven himself. maybe not with this song, but definitely is now labeled as one of the greats

  • i just said something stupid to a girl im crazy about and this song, Explains Everything. John Mayer, you are a Genius

  • haha, dude, i invented doing that :P

  • i do that for a living

  • It's what we do =]

  • John Mayer is AMAZING!!!!!!!

  • he's definitely evolved... vocally speakin.

  • He is a guitar genius.

  • yumm..

    he looks so sexy when he sings..

    :P

  • The man is a guitar genius. This song does not demonstrate that, but there are plenty of others do....

  • A matter of taste. Enough said.

  • Yeah, agreed that Wes Montgomery was a guitar genius, but it doesn't mean that Mayer isn't. He has certainly forged his own way to where Eric Clapton and BB King find him praise-worthy and yes, even genius.

  • I love this song! John, would you marry me? We would have really pretty babies!! My husband is leaving anyway! LOL

  • Dave matthews should sew this guy lol

    jk. hes pretty ok

  • that Martin D-42 look so damn sexy

    like i actually want to do it

  • look at all that pussy in the crowd, props John.

  • I like this song.. John Mayer is really nice!

  • whats the name of the drummer?! damn he's good.! steady chops!

  • Steven Chopek

  • luv it

  • Comment removed

  • john sounds really out of breath at the start lol! Great performance all the same

  • You obviously haven't heard the studio version.

  • yes i have actually, i have all his albums, if you cant tell its different then thats fine by me

  • yeah before he learned how to control his voice and volume and his air support really wasn't developed

  • The bassist is Zack Braff!

  • its actually not.

  • joke, thank you

  • just bc his music appeals mostly to teenage girls and frat guys doesnt make him a bad musician. i thouroughly enjoy everything ive heard from him and im a 26 yr old man. its different strokes for different folks....stop hating

  • John shredding the blues appeals to more than teenage girls

  • i know. thank you for helping me prove my point. i was talking to some other asshole hating on john mayer

  • i sure have a stupid mouth. =(

  • 4 years ago you were another musician

  • Another superb song by John. Every time I hear this guy I gain another level of respect for his talent. The gay talk is obviously the 15 year olds or grown-ups with serious issues. Tell his smoking girlfriend how gay he is. Anybody who thinks this is garbage should be over to the metal threads. This ain't for you, fine go listen to all the loud noise that's out there.

  • Don't tell us your life people

    Awsome Mayer

  • the real question is: if you despise john mayer so much, can you tell me why you're watching his videos?

    i think he's amazing by the way.

  • ladies and gents. please stop fighting over this great man. his pop music is beautiful, the lyrics are so meaningful and the meldoies are soo catchy. and as a blues artist, he is just amazing. Im 16 and he was inspired me sooo much. for me, john mayer is the best artist today.... all hail john

  • Finally! Someone understands true art! John Mayer has inspired me as a writer and furthermore as a person. Anyone who can't see how amazingly talented he is is culturally deprived and has no true conception of what REAL music is.

  • Im 16 as well and love him, hope to meet him one day ~ Sean

  • nah hes pretty good actually thats why he makes so much money

  • This song is NOT trash. None of John Mayer's music is. 'My Stupid Mouth' is an incredible song... especially since it's a live acoustic version.

  • YOU ARE INCREDIBLY GAY! FUCK OFF!

  • wow....i didn't mean to offend your boyfriend maybe if you could take your eyes off his dick you would see how much he sucks

  • your a fag, go kill yourself

  • So pop is garbage? Please...I love johns blues songs...but I also love his older stuff..lyrics...grabs and hooks. Pop isnt garbage...and most of the time...the best songs are the simple ones. Look at free fallin for cryin out loud.

  • Listen kid, if you ever grow up, you'll realize that every artist doesn't just make it immediately like that. John Mayer blossomed in a time when pop was the mainstream success, after he built a strong enough recognition label, he moved to blues. Sriously dude, are you that naive?

  • great song, but what i find funny is watching the stupid faces the croud makes

  • I loveee the album version of this song, and i love John's live performances...this one is just as good as any...but I don't like his transition after the first "starting now"!!! I like the album...where it trails off like he's supposed to be keeping quiet, then it jumps in like he just couldn't wait, had to say something else...like he could act it out....but instead he mucks it into a transition bridge.

  • One of my favourite sogs, brilliant.

  • i played a quick game of chess with the salt and pepper shaker...fav part

    i can see it happening

  • With that acoustic of his John Mayer reminds me of Dave Matthews with HIS acoustic.

  • when was this concert?

  • I swear people on youtube are relentless sharks waitin to rip somethin apart that they dont actually even understand enough to appreciate. Why always SO negative? john mayer has just begun to display his true form recently. His past music like Room for Squares was far more "celebrity/pop" than his current music. All his music is quality, though. He is pure talent, musical genius and skill. To say that he "sucks" is just completely ridiculous even if you dont prefer to listen to his music.

  • 2:56.. my fav part.. Now if only i understood what he said for the xtra verse.. Thanks in advance for the person helps me out !

  • He said you're gay.

  • my bad to think i could actually expect a mature response from someone like you..

    I dont blame you.. Bad parenting i would assume.. Its ok, youre forgiven..

  • LMAO!! That acutally made me laugh for 10 seconds.

  • "im fading out of tune, "how of", you take it or leave wishing my life 30 seomthing seconds back' I think some parts i coulndt understand.

  • Im fading out of tune, to hell with you, take it or leave me..." then the rest gets unclear.. oh well.. we tried.. thanks !

  • google it
