yo I'm going to reharm this
Yeah !!
please do
To those who are about to look it up ‘reharmonisation’; taking an existing melodic line and altering the harmony that accompanies it, often seen in jazz. Love to see it Adam.
@I Adore . . . kinda thought the same, would he have "reharmed" it if John didn't share it? We won't know.
Just do it! In fact all RUclips guitar channels should do it! #harmmayer
Please write his next album
What about a complete discography?
I totally agree with the weird accent bearded guy! 🤘🏼
I agree too!
...Dutch what he said.
I’m just here for the Paul David’s comments.
I heard John Mayer did a cover of this song
I triple dog dare John to cover Marys cover.
Damn!! Beat me to it
@@srsanders455 Knowing him, he probably will.
So who claims copyright on this once it's finally released? :D
John Mayer did a cover...long time ago Toto Africa he didn't like it guess he's right on track now Different lyrics but still right on time
Plot twist: Mayer's new song comes out and the algorithm automatically demonetizes it because of Mary's version.
Hahaha that would honestly be fantastic and what a tribute to Mary that'd be
😂
It did
LOL
@@merijn4440 EZ Money
Can we just appreciate John Mayer recognizing this and sharing it on instagram
Im so glad he sent me over!!
I don’t know that, and actually came looking for his comment.
Yeah I think that’s amazing he shared it, and go Mary for getting his attention!
A king.
I can't find his IG post :(
It's so nice of Mary to bring attention to smaller artists like John Mayer. (!)
😱😄
Like Rihanna did with FourFiveSeconds and this bloke called "Paul Macartney" or smth!
Small artist!? He is a Grammy winner
@@randomrants6500 woooosh
@@merijn4440 he might not be a very well known artist nowadays but most of the artists idolise him fr.
Now that the official songs been released who else is rewatching this version again? 🙌
This version is actually better ngl
yep
@@christophergradiz1962 agree 100%. JM song is too close to toto and doesn't have much originality sort of all homage. This is a throwback with it's own flavour. Mary's voice is stellar.
Me, from the same country.
@@christophergradiz1962 true John mayer just likes staying poppy and rich even though he is well capable of making complex music.
10:22 is epic!!
Holy shit that's high praise, this man literally taught Mayer how to play! 🙌🙌
Tomo which root fifths!!🙄🤔
😊
@@aidanmackle5751 Tomo has taught and played with so many legends. He never plays unecessary notes, every note has a purpose. His use of dynamics and bends are just beautiful too. Love tomo, he has a great course too.
OMG! Sensei is here.
John’s probably frantically re-recording his right now, so it’s not the same... :-)
hahahahaha
Or so it is the same....
🤣
i wanted to like the comment - but its at 420 right now - so here, get a comment
Or re-recording it to sound the same because it's so damn good
Ha ha!! Can’t wait to hear the new JM single to see how close you got! Amazing job regardless 👏👏👏
Hey Andertons! I'm still waiting for that long awaited/promised video with John! Is it cancelled altogether or just postponed because of covid?
Mary didn't expect that Mayer would make the verse the hook of the song. More of the riff backing the verse. Verse > Refrain > Riff hook/verse
Not a big John Mayer fan, personally, but that's cool that he's laid back enough to share this with his fanbase. We need more musicians being cool and less doing takedowns.
Ditto. Not a Mayer fan but I admire the passion his fans have. And his PRS models are pretty sweet if not a tad overhyped.
Not initially of his solo work, but hearing him pull off joining Dead & Co. earned huge respect from me!
@@tedsmart5539 *if a tad overhyped
It’s really smart of him to do because look at all the exposure and extra hype his song is getting because he did it. Now all the people who watched this video are gonna listen to his new song just to hear the difference
@@soundtrackreimagined1854 don't worry, we'll only listen to the song once to hear the difference, and then the only version that we'll play on repeat is either Mary's or Adam's reharm
Who's here after the release of last train home 😌
loved both of the versions ❤️
GUYS 30 mins ago John Mayer himself shared this video on his IG stories.
Awesome job Mary!
Is there a link? Cant find it. :(
Wooooooohooooooooooo go girl 😍
Mary was worried she was gonna get a copyright strike from John. He praised her work instead. Super awesome!
Where is his reaction?
@@eliashjelmseth1072 yeah same I'm trying to find it
@@eliashjelmseth1072 he put it up in an Instagram story.
@@richardharrold9736Its his label not him if I understand correctly
@@nathanielvalla6142 yup that is correct
You got a nationwide NPR mention this morning here in the US. They quoted Mayer’s reaction, “I snooze I lose...” It’s a great, audacious idea- are you ready for the attention?
Nailed the JM facial expressions during the solo. That’s the most important bit.
I knew John Mayer would like this. A rockstar who doesn't take himself too seriously is so rare. Kudos to him!
I think John should get you to open up for him on tour... Then you can do a few numbers as duets.
Yes ID PAY for that
We should start a poll or something!
#marymeetsmayer
#mayertourswithmary 😎
He is john mayer dude
Slow your roll
Who's back here to compare John's version with this 🙌
I'm back after the release of Last Train Home!! Wow
HE NOTICED! Not only that but he put you on his Insta Story!
Hell yeah Mary! Go get it!!
As a long time fan of Mary, I understand how HUGE of a deal it is that John mentioned it!
Fun, clever and challenging!
john mayers mentor bruh
John actually put this in his story that day . It's great to see all the RUclips guitar legends on the comment section in support . I agree to Eric Clapton on everything but not on his statement "guitar is probably over " well sir not yet not over yet .... We will try to keep your legacy alive our level best . Guitar players like this in the name of Jimmy , George , and stevies name ....
That mock Mayer swagger in the music video was perfect 😂
Can’t describe the happiness in seeing John sharing this on Instagram. Way to go Mary!! Incredible stuff!!
Everything about this is stupendous: the work, production, musicianship, vocals, commentary, filming, editing, setting, message, hope, joy, smile, even the English weather! You are a ball of efforvescence MS! 👍
So the single released and I heard it today, and I just had to come back and compliment you at how close you actually got. Bravo Mary!
Your "big budget" video captured more pure joy than I have seen in a long time. Thank you for sharing your talent and your love of music. This is something very special.
I'd love to see you interviewing Mayer, that would be so much fun
Yes it would be.
I second this.
Also, it was John Mayer's post that got me to this video, so I guess that's kind of a success.
She actually kind of has! 😅
Oh yeah
She kinda did at NAMM once. We still need a proper interview and to be more ambitious, a duet
Coming back to compare after John has officially released his cover of Mary's single 🙃
same..lol
sameeee
they sound so similar!
Johns version is better, obviously.
@@joseppi4cinqua I honestly prefer Mary's Vocals... Better lyrics and better performance, I also enjoy her guitar tone.
A whole new genre of RUclips guitar production is born: time travel alternate universe covers.
This is a brilliant idea. Genius. I hope he hears about this.
Thank you Tony
He did!!! ☺️ He linked this video on his Instagram account 😍
@@photogirl0207 brilliant. Well done @Mary Spender
I think you could find yourself in a bit of hot water based on interference with the label's marketing & distribution endeavors which under the law would be considered tortious interference. He hasn't even launched the song yet and the new thing is to "troll" the impending release. That's what we're doing now? In addition to the troll, you are opening yourself up to all sorts of copywrite issues, mechanical issues, synchronization issues, etc. I appreciate the love that you have for him but I would be leery of uploading this type of "sampling/interpolation" without the proper clearance. Good luck.
@@jnfe well he has shared it on Instagram so I think he’s rather impressed.
Came here for the single, stayed for the waterbottle ASMR
The single is out and here I am just rewatching your video!!!
This is actually a really good idea for learning to write songs. Start listening to a song and stop after a few bars and try to predict the rest. Great for ear training and learning to structure songs. I'm definitely gonna start trying to do that. Great job! Video was beautifully cheesy and I loved it!! A musician should always embrace being eccentric and having a good time and never worry about looking silly or being embarrassed. Keep having fun and making great content ❤️
Incredible skill required.
I think you are so, so right.
Apparently, the advent of man may have begun when they started consuming mind altering mushrooms, as their way of thinking outside the box.
one of the coolest musical things I have seen in over a year. i hope John gives you a call for some sort of collaboration on the back of this.
Thank you!
What a creative idea, Mary! You just invented a new form on RUclips. Finishing pre-released songs. It is a win win, because it boosts everybody's curiosity about the real tune.
John mayer just did a cover of this song! :D
😄
Keyboard Mary is my new favorite music video character.
Mary, you should make this a challenge for your next release... Send your you tuber friends a portion of your next song and see how close they come (you accept fan submissions as well and have a prize for the ones who come closest.
It's definitely on my mind :)
@@MarySpender Or invite people to collaborate by building off your song idea. Just one song. It would be amazing for the winner.
@@SeanKerns and also a potential legal nightmare for MS.......some idiots grand children will fight it in court for years .
@@redrock1963 Doesn't have to be. Contractually, it could be a work for hire.
I love the song challenges with a basic beat & beginnings provided by RUclipsr, then hearing the creativity from the fans/viewers/subscribers! Exciting!!!
John Mayer endorsed this himself. Amazing job !
Please tell us where did he mention this, have to see it 😁
@@alethephobe7586 it was in his IG stories. It's gone now sorry.
@@alethephobe7586 Mary posted a screenshot of his Instagram story on her Instagram account so you can see it there!
I predict a Mary Spender-John Mayer collaboration in the future.
What an absolute JOY !! Absolutely loved this video, thanks Mary, you are a STAR !!
John Mayer sent me here to watch this...and I'm so happy he did!
Who else is here after John posted this on IG? this is amazing Mary! You have a new fan :)
He did? Wow! This is even more awesome!
Nope, I don't follow the John (despite being a fan) gonna go check it out now though.
Seem John live, probably my favourite ever gig (close to Bonamassa).
Every time I listen to “John Mayer’s version” I have to come a listen to your version! I love both!
Impressive how well you nailed this - down to the strong 80's vibe in the video!
Such a cool idea for a song "Variation on a Theme by John Mayer".
hahahah
John Mayer posted this in his story damn you made it mary! 🎉
I came here once again, because I sang it all last day. I didn't listen to John Mayer that much previously, but I back to your video because I love the melody and love the way YOU did it, Mary! Very great job! Song is not even released but you did such a soulful pre-cover. I hope JM will add yours to his album's extended version. Really enjoy it!
You just know John’s gunna superimpose his face over yours for the music video
Absolutely fkn brilliant. Hahah. Omg. The fact that JM posted this on his IG Story shows you how brilliant it is. Congrats on getting attention from the man himself. Genius!!
Oh my I love this video so much 💜 yessss Mary killing the prod.
Watching the music RUclipsrs supporting each other makes my heart warm. Y’all. 💛
This is sooo good: that voice, that vibrato, that groove, that tone, that solo!
"A very high budget music video" 😂 The smirk when you take the sunglasses off is everything. Great job on the song, especially in the amount of time it took you to get it done.
"I don't know why I'm doing this.." Because it is cool as hell. It is the sort of thing I would do if I had any talent at all. It is a spectacular song writing challenge. I'm and engineer and I've learned so much re-creating other people's work. As a challenge or as a necessity to repair broken things.
Haha, he gave you cred on Insta saying "I Snooze, I lose" that you released his new song before he did!!! Way to go Mary. Been following you and Leo for a long time. You are super talented. Keep it up!!!
Listening to this again and it's amazing how you wrote "fall from grace" and in the actual song he says "I'm not a fallen angel."
Coming back here after watching John Mayer's The Last Train Home early in the morning... I love both version! Thank you.
Came from John’s Instagram story!! Congrats Mary! This was such a unique video idea- it was so fun getting to hear your take on it!
MARY F*CKING SPENDER!!! 😍🙌🏻
MAD SKILLS! I love how you piece all of it together. YOU ROCK!!
Mary, This John Meyer thing is what caused me to be a patron/patreon. It was a great idea and you did a wonderfully great job finishing the song.
RUclips should have a “fkn genius” button for this video ❤️
I agree!
You just got a shoutout from John himself you are living my dream also great video!
So just saw the NPR Story where John Mayer loves your version, and says of you releasing it: "I snooze I lose."
Mary, you beat the man at his own game. Bloody brill, m'dear!
I would watch/listen to you sing the phone book!
Terrific video--love the explanation of how you put it all together, and the "high budget" video wrought from this experiment has the perfect synergy of harmony and humor. The camera loves you! Thanks for putting this together.
I love how that guitar changes colors outside in the sunlight.
That feeling when John Mayer sends you notification about Mary Spenders new video
Very very good. And it’s a while since I got the feeling from one of your videos that you’re having fun! Wonderful! You truly deserve to have fun!
This self challenge might be the beginning of a new trend of anticipate to artist's new releases.... Well done Mary! One step ahead 🤘🏻
Here because JM posted it!!!!! Congratulations 🎉
Wow this sounds incredible! Great job and I can’t wait to compare your version to the real thing when it comes out! 😁🎸🎶👍
Back to listen once again after John Mayer posted this to his Instagram story! Well done Mary for the incredible video idea and for getting recognised by the man himself! I have a feeling your going to go far and who knows maybe you’ll be able to play with Mr Mayer live sometime that would be incredible! Have a great rest of your day! 😁🥳
This is so good. Enjoyed watching your creative process. Great job producing this!
Love this video! sounds amazing! looking forward to hearing how close you got! Need John Mayer to see this! ☺️🤘🏼
I'm so excited for John's music release, I can't remember the last time I was this excited about something. Love this content Mary, you're greaaaat
Let's all just take a moment to appreciate the choreography of the music video portion of this.
This is so brilliant. I can't wait to hear the song officially and compare. This was so well done.
I absolutely love finding unbelievably talented musicians unexpectedly on youtube. Now the journey starts to watch all your content. Thank you
Plot twist: John Mayer includes Mary Spender's version as a bonus track in his album and the title of the song is "Goosebumps"
John won’t strike it Mary, he promoted this video
So much talent. Truly blessed as a musician and what a voice!
Love what you did with the background vocals. Great job! Thank you! 🎸🤘
Who is here from John Mayers IG story post?
What??😂
Couldn't believe it when I saw, Mary's hit the big time lol
Me lmaooo
Me. What a crossover.
Me 😂😂
Mad props for taking on this innovative challenge. I don't think anyone has done this before. You help make this writing process look so natural.
Coming back to compare since he released "Last Train Home."😂💙
This version is super cool too! Congratulations and so much admiration for you Mary, :)
Really great video Mary. Super mix, playing and vocals. 🎸🇬🇧🙋♂️
I loved your silliness also! We should never take ourselves too seriously 🥰 I love your music! I guess I’ll have to buy some, huh?
This is one of the most genius videos I’ve seen. I hope a lot more people do this kind of stuff throughout the future. Thanks Mary !
You killed it!!
John should be honoured at this remarkable homage
Who's in a rush to hear John Mayer when we can listen to Mary? Good job Mary!
Considering how much I've been letting those Tiktoks play on repeat, when I saw your title I FREAKED. This is so awesome, my favorite of your videos so far. Such incredible work, the song is awesome on its own, but this is definitely going to hold me over until he releases his version of the single hahaha. Keep rocking, Mary!
You go, Mary Spender! The solo is near spot on! The background vocals, too! Bravo! I love it!
Hats off to you both
,Mary and John !
Love it !
You're an utter gem, Mary. Thank you for this!
Your voice is so beautiful, Mary!
would she be considered an alto?
Simp
@@roinerwonkler8754 Shut up
@@roinerwonkler8754 lmao wtf
DrPengin Guitar ok white knight
Your solo PERFECTLY captured John's signature guitar tone. I've been following Rick for years and he is why I am now subscribing to a very creative, talented and intelligent Mary Spender. Well done!
Very creative idea. With killer execution. You crafted a great song out of snippets, well done Mary!
