i remember being a little girl and my father making me sit on his lap while he played this song and told me how much he loved me. sweet memory"s. beautiful song:)
I like this song except for the part that says "boys you can break.." that's not true.. broken guys treat women horribly.. Fathers be good to your children!!
Any man out there considering abandoning their daughters, please don't, it messed me up. The words I love you are almost meaningless because that's what my dad claimed before he rejected me.
@quidseeker he divorced my mom when i was 6 and then never made an attempt to see me, he was forced to my sister's graduation earlier this year and wouldn't even look at me let alone talk to me, I was really upset the other day so I called him and I was about to scream at him, but instead i told him that it's pointless for me to tell you what I want to say so if you care call me back and if you don't i can take a hint, he told my grandpa to tell me he's not calling back
@easyvintage That's fucked up. I'm sorry you've gone through that pain and confusion. I've gone through a similar situation with my mother. You should tell him how you feel, warts and all....you've got nothing to lose, he's already gone. At least it may dawn on him someday how hurtful it's been for you. Then....move on. The pain never goes away, but it does get better with time. Not all men are like this. :-)
@quidseeker I know that not all men are this way, but not one man has ever stepped up and tried to be the one significant man in my life, I've never even been told I'm pretty by a guy before :L
@easyvintage Now THAT is hard to believe....I see your picture and I think you're beautiful!!! How's that? Not only are you pretty, and smart, you're beautiful. Any man who hasn't told you that yet is a moron by choice and totally blind.
Hey guys! So I've seen people comment on videos before saying how much they love music, and asking people of they could check out there channel, they would always get like a billion likes so, hey I'll give it a shot :) I'm Shelby an I'm from the east coast and I'm a freshman, I'm 14 years old, and singing is something I have never considered taking seriously until right now. But I can't get started unless I get a little help:) if you guys could like this comment or check out my videos, maybe su
@EkoJisBack I don't know your situation, but fathers are very human, and they make some of the most stupid mistakes on the planet. I should know. I don't think he hates you, it might just be something in his own past that stops him from being a good father to you. If I'm totally off the map, just forget my comment, but I just can't sit there and know that you're crying because another guy can't handle being a parent and not try to help you.
My cousins, cousin used to hangout with john as a kid and play all different kinds of instruments. I found it pretty cool when he told me that.. and thats why i started listening to john mayer.. And he is now one of my fav. artist.. his songs never get old. (:
A song that finally makes sense for the world..don't believe any song will be as real as this one..♥ John Mayer Did an amazing song i will always keep this song in my life and 1day pass it on:)
@mrsbroflovski amen to that! i feel the same way! although im 18 i totally get where ur coming from. John Mayer is a beautiful artist. those people making fun of u are just hatesr who dont know good music when they hear it . rock on :)
@mrsbroflovski I'm 21 and love all music. I was listening to Eminem, Conway Twitty, and Incubus at 10. ;D Don't be afraid to like something a little mainstream. It's mainstream for a reason. :) P.S. I like your username.
i put my month old daughter up for adoption like 17 years ago, her adopted parents died and she found me and she was fat and her mother was american, so she fat american and I hit her and told her to go, but then we fucked
@louryder33 incest? bit sick don't you think? calling your daughter fat? I believe this is a troll seeking attention. Your comment is rude, sick and sterotyping other American's.
parents never want to accept the fact that they hurt their children... and made them psychologically wounded.... everything is always their children's fault. all the bad habits they must have picked up on their own from the streets, all the worries and fears they must have learned on their own... and all the resentment comes from being a spoiled brat. apparently, parents do no wrong, and we victimize the shit out of ourselves.
The Isaiah 62 Weddings are in the books- thanks for your cooperation in getting the job done and on time..I love it when a plan comes together ..We still need to reverse those eternal curses through sexual intercourse- and build the Sexual House before Jesus but how the fuck cares who you married- I have two daughters that needed to get married- job done-
Every man who is thinking of walking away from his daughter, should listen to this and release every man that comes into her life will constantly be paying for your abandonment
FREAK! John is singing from the heart. Let's take in the message for what is. He is not trying to diminish any one's importance, he just happens to be focusing on fathers and daughter. What's wrong with that. EVERYBODY IS IMPORTANT OKAY! FREAK!
I think this is absolutely true. In a relationship if a girl is having problems may times it isn't about you. A woman is a maze and she often won't let you in....
I was in error in my recently posted comments about WHEN I hear "But" vs "And" ... It's when John Mayer sings, "But boys would be gone without the warmth of a woman's good, good heart." Since I have more comment space due to this 2nd posting, I want to acknowledge that I salute John's astute observations re:how important it is for BOTH mothers & fathers to "be good" to our daughters. We parents have SUCH a responsibility to send our daughters into the world feeling loved ... so they can love.<3
I found your videoto be very effective ... & a refreshing way to view the lyrics to a song ... & except for one word that I picked up on, you translated the lyrics perfectly. ( I think John Mayer says, "But" instead of "And" just before he sings, "boys will be strong; boys soldier on ... " Thanks for the posting ! I intend to send this to a few people who I think will appreciate reading the lyrics to a song I feel John Mayer has written w/ some surprising insight into many a girl's psyche.<3
I named my daughter Emily.such a pretty name.To all you dads like me out there (I see my daughter everyday,tho divorced)keep doin what you do.great job mr.Mayer
i remember being a little girl and my father making me sit on his lap while he played this song and told me how much he loved me. sweet memory"s. beautiful song:)
