This song is the one that made realize how great of a performer he really is. Up until then i just thought John was teenage girl music and then i heard Covered in rain on anygiven thursday and became an instant fan. Truth be told i never really gave him a fair shake.
I get chills every time I watch this and it is quite often. How in the world does he come back and sing after that solo that is truly otherworldly. John was just a "babe in the woods" !!!!!
I am overwhelmed with this performance. Now I know why John Mayer is a legend at 40, I have always loved his music but today is the first of seeing this and I am blown away. So young JM
i remember about ten years ago i dedicated my life to guitar after watching this nonstop. coming back to it its still the greatest guitar solo ive ever seen.
Covered in Rain is derived out of City Love, which is his New York city blues homage - "... the day, she called up and came to me, covered in rain, and dinnertime shadowing..." People say the song is his Post 9/11 tribute to New York. Given it was recorded 9/12/02, I believe it. I don't think this video keeps getting pulled down because of the producers of AGT. If I recall in the end credits, John plays some of Bjork's song (don't know which) in his solo. Maybe its a complication pertaining to copyright laws and song ownership? That said, a lot of AGT is not on RUclips, so I suspect I'm wrong on this. At the time, John was internationally more renown as an acoustic singer, so this gem was hidden from those who weren't noticing or even looking. A lot of people just didn't know the range of John's playing versatility, his vast musical knowledge, or his lyrical prowess. Being a fan felt like having secret access to gold.
Missing John’s raw emotions. Glad he shared this piece of his heart with us. This is a masterpiece.. years later I catch myself listening to this version to feel this
The song that keeps on giving. I constantly come back to this.
Thanks God you made humans . God’ s people are the miracle . Absolutely stunning performance by John

My favorite JM song of all time. I also really enjoy the bass in this song, so additive, but not overboard. Everything is just perfect.

That arpeggio at 9:01 is really something great! I love it!
Bateu a bad 😔
🏆
This is John Mayer's "Life Without You" (Stevie Ray Vaughan).
His creative light shined soo bright as a young man, fame and ego took that from him when he moved to LA
I am overwhelmed with this performance. Now I know why John Mayer is a legend at 40, I have always loved his music but today is the first of seeing this and I am blown away. So young JM
First time hearing this. I’ll be back everyday…for the rest of my life.

This performance precedes RUclips. I remember watching this over and over again on Yahoo music or something like that.
❤❤❤❤

Only JM can play live dressed like he is go!ng to mcdonald and i love it ! Best guitarit for me and this solo is out of this world !
I will never stop loving JM
Always my favourite track ❤❤
Thank you. It 'the' song for me.✌🏻
Me: Hey John why is that baby crying John: Looks like it’s covered in waahhh
I don't know how many times I watched this, but today I almost cried.
I literally cried, catching me off guard and while working. WOW.
My desert island song since it came out
There are few perfect things in this world, but that solo... lord, have mercy.
Is it just me or does this song have very Sting-ish vibes (the first couple minutes)? Brilliant song either way
Wow..
Es la cancion representa la epoca mas preciosa de mi vida. Gracias
this is the man
i remember about ten years ago i dedicated my life to guitar after watching this nonstop. coming back to it its still the greatest guitar solo ive ever seen.
Omg it’s back on!!! YESSSSS!
Dreaming of one day, playing my own 🎷 version of this…
Auqaya
I can't believe it's up!!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
this is truly one of the best and most beautiful songs ive ever heard, it some sort of feeling which just makes me die. its truly gorgeous
No words. Just beautiful
I get tired time to time seeing him on the news nowadays, but he's still very sexy here
22 years and he’s still just getting better ❤❤❤❤❤
Best John Mayer song. Change my mind
Back again. Still best. Fight me.
THIS is John Mayer.
I've been a mayer fan for years and this is my first time hearing this masterpiece. I'm disappointed in myself.
He was playing from the bottom of his heart attached to his fingers. Wish he could play with the same heart despite commercial songs
he still does, he's a beast when it comes to live performances, he purposefully tamed his studio recordings
Nice Blouse John lol This shit is epic!!!!
SRV IS here !!!!

so sincere, like kiddo 😛💦
John Mayer's prime for sure

I’ve seen JM over 15 times live and still come back to this performance. The solo is just magical.
lucky you
Saw him live at this show in Birmingham
@@stevensavage7870 how fun that must have been. 😀. Did you know at the time that you’d still be listening in 2024??
