Wait .. Are you seriously comparing him to Ed ? I don't mean to be harsh but, do you realize the wide difference between their voice ranges and guitar skills ?
joost Houterman Welp. Him and Ed are completely different. he has a band. Whereas Sheeran has his voice and a loop pedal with no one else. and their style is completely different apart from a couple of songs.
Not edited people. Myself and 2 of my buds were there. John's on par with Dave Matthews. He does blues now, btw. That's why you haven't heard Mayer on the radio. He didn't sell out.
Joseph Printy City Limits show (same year) is as good as this one. Less magical, but in terms of performance, it's the same. afther 2009 he got a bit tired and then he got the troath problem. Saw him in Oct. 2013 and it was amazing as hell! No false note came out of his mouth, let alone his guitar
***** i think you are right you can kind of tell it's edited. I saw one republic at Jimmy Kimmel, i live a few blocks from where they tape it and they sounded SO BAD live omg. I was very surprised. Very few musicians sound good live the lead singer of Queen etc.
I'd be honored if some John Mayer fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of his early masterpieces CLARITY and LOVE SOON on my YT channel in tribute to the boss. Live acoustic with no digital editing. Thanks and peace out.
It's December 15, 2021, Kolkata, India, 5:48 a.m. It's been almost 6 years since this song introduced me to John Mayer's music and my whole career on guitar studies changed once and for all. Tired after doing my engineering assignments for the entire night I decided to take a break and suddenly this song popped up in my head and as I came to check it out for almost the 1000th time, the nostalgia hit me like a running truck. The tears I shed through this man's music, the healing this man caused me incomparable to nothing. I hope every single person who's watching this video may find mental satisfaction and peace in their life. Hang in there.
Hello from your South Asian neighbor! It's interesting how common the engineering major and guitar student combo is, in our part of the world at least. Mayer really is one of the biggest inspirations as a guitarist.
This dude is by far one of the most talented individuals I history In my opinion that is no exaggeration His vocals , compositions , cadence , presence , playing is in a league of its own
You do know that this is a cover right?? John Mayer is talented we can agree on that... but dont forget the fathers of real guitar music... Eric clapton, mark knopfler, BB-king, the eagles, Steve vai i think that no One from nowadays can match those Guys......
@@p.a.lifewithdrewmsc. Uhhh. It’s not a cover it’s an original song he only played live . And I’m speaking for his compositions both vocally and on guitar. Check out Andy James , Tim Henson , Tosin Abasi I won’t say anything insulting but good God I’d love to .
In my opinion this is the finest cover ever done of this classic song. John Mayers voice was made for this song and accompanied by truely talented support. Thank-you 😊
Mayer looks like he's having a blast during this song, his vocals and playing are amazing, backed by not only two great instrumentalists but singers as well. Imagine making a cover of a song more popular than the original, and completely worth it by the way. Not only that, the camera quality is brilliant for 2008 and whoever mixed this deserves a seat in heaven. Blessed to be able to come back to this video again and again. Hope the rest of your day is great, and if it's night where you are, sleep well :)
Yes, just imagine him making a cover song more popular than the original. Because that’s what you’d have to do. His somewhat effeminate, nasal moaning version somehow managed to reach #51 on Billboards chart (have to admit, I’d never even heard it before and he did his cover almost 13 years ago.). So, yeah, super popular. Mr. Pettys version, which just about anybody with the slimmest of links to music and pop culture is more than likely familiar with, on the other hand, made it to #1 in 1989, So, I really have no idea what you’re talking about. Perhaps that was just your considered opinion it was better. That I’ll grant you.
I can't even hear the original version in my head anymore. I loved it so much, immediately listened again. Still got goosebumps the second time! I guess for me this is my favorite version now ❤
I'd be honored if some old-school John Mayer fans would take a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal RUclips performances of his early masterpieces CLARITY and QUIET in tribute to the boss. Live acoustic with no digital editing. Peace and stay safe.
After hearing this, he is, at least, famous, for taking something that is/was not broken and breaking it, into many various and sundry bits, in my opinion.
I feel like every passionate musician ever, literally HAS to appreciate this sort of musician-ery. It's literally beyond such a level of artistry, the way he plays, its beauty in its purest form.
Love the guitar playing in the song they really changed it up. And John’s voice is so underrated bc he doesn’t have to try to over sing anything. It just sounds so natural and laid back. Generational talent.
Just here for my regular dose of John Mayer before I go to bed. Times are crazy but, I hope everyone is doing well out there. . . . Edit: Thank you for all the likes & the lovely responses people. And congrats to all my fellow JM fan-mates, we finally hit 100M on this one! :D
yes!! Not some dumb song like work or call me on my cell phone, but a cover of an amazing song by an amazing artist. also John Mayer can sing amazing, I love his voice, but the way he plays the guitar is mind blowing!!
Every artist has the one performance that absolutely stands out and becomes timeless. Not to take away from the many many amazing John Mayer performances but there is an eclectic quality to the acoustic section of this concert that is simply outstanding.
Yeah right. There is literally *nothing* special about this. *Anyone* can sing this exact version at any crap coffee house. Its talentless and bland. John Mayer's just a dork who girls think is hot, so people buy into him. John Mayer and Jack Johnson are dorks that are a literal dime a dozen and can be found on any college campus. I can go to a coffee house and find a guy who can strum a guitar halfway decent and tell everyone "Oh look how talented this guy is!!!!"
20 year ago I thought J.M was lame ,then I bought his first album and as a songwriter myself I heard how all his songs are top notch in the way they are written.Watching this whole concert shows you J.M is the new Paul Simon,Hendrix,Clapton,Dylan and more.Absolutely inspirational beautifull music.
i ignorantly thought for a long time that john mayer was a pop douche but after actually looking at his videos and hearing more of his songs i think he is a massive talent in the music world.
I found out he was talented few years ago, he did a song at a festival and dedicated a song to bb king. "Crossroads festival" and the song is "believe" after that I got hooked
@@RobbyBoy167yea that’s silly. I went to this show and a number of shows on the 07-10 era and that was when his voice was at his best. Man was the king of falsettos

I have watched this performance so many times; I have forgotten how many. But in my opinion this is the best live performance ever, John’s stage presence was otherworldly, his vocals didn’t overpower the guitars and vice versa it was absolutely frictionless. Like I really couldn’t find one flaw with this. And every time I listen to this it just puts me in this state of euphoria where it just makes me feel like everything is gonna be alright. John Mayer is the epitome of talent
My people that keep coming back to this song each year understand how important it is. It isn't just a cover. It is arguably one of Mayers greatest performances of all time.
These comments give me hope. I am an amateur musician, 40 years now, and I see how the industry and artist have changed. Some popular artist are amazing but others, I just can't get into. John Mayer is the quintessential musician of our time. He is an amazing guitar player, no doubt, but his version of this cover is his testament that you can both pay respect to a great artist like Tom Petty and yet create your own rendition that is as great as the original. Just amazing and moving. If you don't feel anything when you hear this version, well I feel for you. 😊
I'd be honored if some John Mayer fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of his early masterpieces CLARITY and QUIET on my YT channel in tribute to the boss. Live acoustic with no digital editing. Thanks and peace out.
hi Michelle, RUclips doesn't like links in comments, but if you YT search my name with John Mayer you should find me easily. Or just tap on my photo there to go straight to my channel. Thanks for asking.
My cousin just passed away last week, extremely unexpected…as he sings “I wanna free fall out into nothing, I’m going to leave this world for awhile…” my heart aches as I can only imagine my cousin peacefully on the other side playing his piano symphonies with Jesus…
pnut3844able not pretentious man, it just might not apply to you. I struggle with putting on a face for everyone to try and show them that I’m “mature for my age” when in reality I’m not and it has cost me enjoyment to just live in the moment. I’m happy that I’m realizing it now. What is pretentious to act like you’re “all that” to impress people and have them think highly of you, you’re lying to yourself and those around you, and you make yourself seem less approachable. ( I’m not talking about u when I say “you”, just talking in general)
@@pnut3844able ... I don't think you know what pretentious means. It's actually much closer to the opposite of that. A pretentious statement would be that people didn't care at first until I change their mind. Not really in the same realm that his comment was... he was just saying that he invested a lot of time and energy into setting things up/creating things for certain people who didn't care. Wasted energy doing things for people who don't appreciate it in the least. That's not pretentious... its closer to self-deprecating in that he's saying he was very naive and got taken advantage of essentially which caused him no shortage of misery just worded in a different way.
I used to sing this on the street with a homeless musician in England from time to time. He's dead now, and coming back to this always reminds me of him, in a beautiful way.
Still here in 2022. John made this song his own with his beautiful vocal. The whole of this live concert is the best I've ever seen. Such a talented performer with bucket loads of charisma . He's still got it all ....my favourite . Gets me through the best and worst of times. Forever grateful for John and his music.
I found John Mayer a few days ago and I'm in LOVE! He's got a beautiful voice, amazing guitarist, and I love the way he smiles in the middle of the song, after a particular note or chord, and that smile just melts my heart ❤
I'd be honored if some old-school John Mayer fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of his early masterpieces CLARITY and LOVE SOON on my YT channel in tribute to the boss. Live acoustic with no digital editing. Thanks and Happy '020s to all.
@@elidaniel5939 Its not about the number of chords its about the way you use those chords. I have been playing this for last 8 years and i don't think anything more beautiful can be made by just keeping it so easy.
+Phil McIndoe I was there, it was a cold rainy night in LA. And this whole show had everyone's jaws on the floor. Still the best "listening music" concert i've ever been to. I was a 17 year old pup, who didn't know what he was listening to would one day become pretty damn iconic.
I'd be honored if some John Mayer fans would take a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal interpretations of his early compositions CLARITY and LOVE SOON on my YT channel in tribute to the boss. Live acoustic with no digital editing. Thanks and peace.
It's 1:25 a.m. and I have my finals in 7 hours and 4 minutes. I can't sleep due to anxiety but somehow I came here and listened to this masterpiece and now I have chills all over my body. What a memorable yet scary moment in my life embellished by this song. Thanks John!
I found your comment. Got a presentation and an exam tomorrow, in less than 10 hours. Still have to sleep and i'm still studying. But what am I doing also ? Listening to this !! :D
Crazy how you can be listening to a song a lot when you’re going through something in life and then even years later when you hear it again you feel the exact same way. That’s this song for me.
You can never overtake a legendary song for what it is, but John Mayer does. Great tribute here. His support guitarist and vocalists do an amazing job too but the whole thing put together is amazing! 10/10
This is one of the best things I ever discovered and I’m just fucking greatfull we have RUclips and the ability to listen and see John mayer. I don’t know why but I find myself here every other day without realising how much I NEED this every time...I just can’t describe the way this video makes me feel
I'd be honored if some John Mayer fans would take a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal RUclips performances of his early masterpieces CLARITY and QUIET in tribute to the boss. Live acoustic with no digital editing. Peace out and stay safe.

I'm only 16 years old, but i know for a fact that at my wedding, this is the song for father daughter dance. Me and my dad are obsessed with john mayer and this is our favourite.
Anyone can’t help but cry when listening to this? Despite knowing all his deep cuts. There’s something so genuine and John about this version of the song.
Don't underestimate these two gentlemen in the back. They're adding too much magic to the song!
damn right.
Thought the same thing when I saw this.
Richard Pariath the original song is by Tom Petty. Tom Petty is not on that stage lol
@@jruddy09 Tom petty is on stage dingus, he's the guy on the left, this was filmed a long time ago, tom petty died last year.
Yeah, guys it's not Tom Petty, it's Robbie Mcintosh. He played a lot with Johnny back in the day, he plays a bunch through the live in LA album.
The guitar playing is out of this world but John's voice is unbelievable.
His guitar playing is way more complicated than his singing, honestly
Everyone is not here to play
Agree one of his best vocal performances.
@@livier3970John’s voice is simple but it’s unique and beautiful. To me that is complex and interesting.
Am I the only one who thinks the quality on this is incredible for being live
It’s John Mayer man.
yo, they made an album out of this live perofmance !
Not to be that guy, but it’s autotuned
It is, really...
It is auto tune but still John mayor is hell lot better and many of the top pop stars
I'm so glad John Mayer covered this.
its a cover??
I'm pretty sure this is not a cover. But please I would love if there is another version
@@lassef3692 It is, "Free Fallin" by Tom Petty

Of course, but he uses autotune most of the time

I've seen the guy live. Literally was 10 feet from him. He sounded just like this
One of the best life performances of all time in my opinion.

John Mayer deserve more fame. He is so talented.
He should have born in 60s or 70s. An artist who is in love with his music. Not an artist who's looking hits only.

Yeah right. There is literally *nothing* special about this. *Anyone* can sing this exact version at any crap coffee house. Its talentless and bland. John Mayer's just a dork who girls think is hot, so people buy into him.
John Mayer and Jack Johnson are dorks that are a literal dime a dozen and can be found on any college campus. I can go to a coffee house and find a guy who can strum a guitar halfway decent and tell everyone "Oh look how talented this guy is!!!!"
Nah. Tom Petty's rendition is better. It is the masterpiece, although I do like Mayer's version too.
Its good but nothing can beat Tom's version

Crazy Horse
I was same
Then I heard a song on radio was gobsmacked when I heard his name
Exactly how I felt once too. Now I'm so glad I gave him a second listen one fateful day.
I found out he was talented few years ago, he did a song at a festival and dedicated a song to bb king. "Crossroads festival" and the song is "believe" after that I got hooked
POP ROCK! and most of his guitar playing is either funk or blues
Saw him in Pittsburgh last night and he played this during his acoustic set… it was absolutely unbelievable live. What a concert and what a guitarist.
Was there. Unforgettable night
Lucky butt. I lucked and got in backstage in a Tulsa concert a couple days ago. I just made a wrong turn.,😁
funny that there are still people who believed that this was "autotuned"

@@RobbyBoy167yea that’s silly. I went to this show and a number of shows on the 07-10 era and that was when his voice was at his best. Man was the king of falsettos
This song makes me want to eat breakfast and start my fabulous life.
This song makes me want to understand this comment
😆 I feel that comment!
I love this comment
DO IT !!
Makes me want to drop a deuce
Have passed almost fourteen years old and it's still a very nice song... John Mayer, I hope your music never ends
Favorite song. Mayer not only did this classic justice, he made it his own.
DEAR JOHN Mayer couldn’t have picked a more perfect song😛😛😛
Lyrics
She's a good girl, loves her mamma
Loves Jesus and America too
She's a good girl, crazy bout Elvis
Loves horses and her boyfriend too, yeah, yeah
It's a long day livin' in Reseda
There's a freeway running through the yard
I'm a bad boy 'cause I don't even miss her
I'm a bad boy for breaking her heart
And I'm free
Free fallin', fallin'
And I'm free
Free fallin', fallin'
All the vampires walkin' through the valley
They move west down Ventura Boulevard
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows
And the good girls are home with broken hearts
And I'm free
Free fallin', fallin'
Now I'm free
Free fallin', fallin'
Free fallin', now I'm
Free fallin', now I'm
Free fallin', now I'm
Free fallin', now I'm
Free fallin', now I'm
Free fallin', now I'm
Free fallin', now I'm
Free fallin'
I wanna glide down over Mulholland
I wanna write her, her name in the sky
I wanna free fall out into nothin'
Oh, I'm gonna leave this, this world for a while
Now I'm free
Free fallin', fallin'
Now I'm free
Free fallin', fallin'
And I'm free
Free fallin', fallin'
Now I'm free
Free fallin', fallin'
Free fallin', fallin'
Free fallin', fallin'
Free fallin', fallin', yeah, yeah
Thank you very much
We'll see you in a few minutes
I always thought he said I wanna ride her 😂😂😂
@@donnypuleo8167 Haha 😂
Thanks fefa🙏
Thank you ❤❤❤
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
The smoothness of its delivery sounds like it's a studio version not live. Best live performances john has IMO
BRANDON so much so this became the album version.
I'd be honored if some John Mayer fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of his early masterpieces CLARITY and LOVE SOON on my YT channel in tribute to the boss. Live acoustic with no digital enhancements. Thanks and peace out.
14 years later, will never get old
You can't studio record this. It wouldn't sound right. This version, this moment, this place. It's absolute perfection that you just can't duplicate.
Hi appreciate your love and support thanks for been a true fan . Reply me here .
I have watched this performance so many times; I have forgotten how many. But in my opinion this is the best live performance ever, John’s stage presence was otherworldly, his vocals didn’t overpower the guitars and vice versa it was absolutely frictionless. Like I really couldn’t find one flaw with this. And every time I listen to this it just puts me in this state of euphoria where it just makes me feel like everything is gonna be alright. John Mayer is the epitome of talent
I love it
There's just something about the way he sings this. You can tell he's just feeling it.
Now watch the Axl Rose/Tom Petty performance
This entire performance “where the light is” is still killer from start to finish
Soul connections can’t be denied my beautiful friend. I thank GOD FOR YOU!😘😘💕
Imagine being at this concert and being able to hear this live! Unbelievable! Made it his own definitely!
To me there are only two ways to do a cover. Either do it the same or make it your own. He definitely made it his own with this one. Amazing cover.
I would die for this!
No please leave the original to Tom petty
Just saw him at Madison Square Garden-He did it again and actually pushed it a little harder with the high vocals. He outdid this one. Epic.
@@Laura-ck3bp do you have any Video? Is it possible to see it somewhere ? Lucky you!!!
My people that keep coming back to this song each year understand how important it is. It isn't just a cover. It is arguably one of Mayers greatest performances of all time.
Loved the original but this special.
why cant I find the original on youtube?
Jam - Im Back The original one was by Tom Petty.
I thought it was hilarious and not feminist at all. There's always that one guy who can never get girls that always sticks up for them to get noticed
@@jacephillips195 omg, I'm that guy.
These comments give me hope. I am an amateur musician, 40 years now, and I see how the industry and artist have changed. Some popular artist are amazing but others, I just can't get into. John Mayer is the quintessential musician of our time. He is an amazing guitar player, no doubt, but his version of this cover is his testament that you can both pay respect to a great artist like Tom Petty and yet create your own rendition that is as great as the original. Just amazing and moving. If you don't feel anything when you hear this version, well I feel for you. 😊
this man is a blessing I love how his music has that authentic speaking to your soul kind of style
John Mayer is such a talented musician.
I'd be honored if some John Mayer fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of his early masterpieces CLARITY and QUIET on my YT channel in tribute to the boss. Live acoustic with no digital editing. Thanks and peace out.
This isn't his song, it's Tom Petty's song
@@willritter4076 I looked for it ?? What's ur link ?
hi Michelle, RUclips doesn't like links in comments, but if you YT search my name with John Mayer you should find me easily. Or just tap on my photo there to go straight to my channel. Thanks for asking.
John Mayer has music in his bones. Amazing.
My cousin just passed away last week, extremely unexpected…as he sings “I wanna free fall out into nothing, I’m going to leave this world for awhile…” my heart aches as I can only imagine my cousin peacefully on the other side playing his piano symphonies with Jesus…
His voice is everything...
Arguably the greatest cover of all time.
Grew up on Tom Petty and I love this cover. This is a master class in how you do a cover. Familiar yet entirely new at the same time.
No argument.
Is all along the watchtower cover by Jimi Hendrix of Bob Dylan song
One of the best covers of all time.
The original is a masterpiece. There have been other covers. But this one, this one is my favorite, thanks John
tom petty ?
His voice is so... crisp. I’ve been looking for that word my whole life.
❤
One of the few talented musicians left today
I physically cant understand how amazing he is at singing
And even Eric Clapton is amazed at his guitar 🎸 proficiency
@John Mayer lol faker. Gtfo
G O D
I want to apologise to this man for not listening to any of his songs any time soon. Such a beautiful voice. At 3:15👌🏾
John Mayer is like a dose of the best medicine that cures any illness.
«The biggest mistake I made that cost me a lot of enjoyment in my life, was assuming that everybody cared, they don’t” - John c Mayer

Kinda pretentious
@@jonasinabox ruclips.net/video/A2wsTv3zVD0/видео.html
pnut3844able not pretentious man, it just might not apply to you. I struggle with putting on a face for everyone to try and show them that I’m “mature for my age” when in reality I’m not and it has cost me enjoyment to just live in the moment. I’m happy that I’m realizing it now. What is pretentious to act like you’re “all that” to impress people and have them think highly of you, you’re lying to yourself and those around you, and you make yourself seem less approachable. ( I’m not talking about u when I say “you”, just talking in general)
@@pnut3844able ... I don't think you know what pretentious means. It's actually much closer to the opposite of that. A pretentious statement would be that people didn't care at first until I change their mind. Not really in the same realm that his comment was... he was just saying that he invested a lot of time and energy into setting things up/creating things for certain people who didn't care. Wasted energy doing things for people who don't appreciate it in the least. That's not pretentious... its closer to self-deprecating in that he's saying he was very naive and got taken advantage of essentially which caused him no shortage of misery just worded in a different way.
Give anybody else goosebumps? Especially the last quarter of the song?! Such a superb cover.
Olá muito linda sua musica
Brasil i Love you
I used to sing this on the street with a homeless musician in England from time to time. He's dead now, and coming back to this always reminds me of him, in a beautiful way.
Still here in 2022. John made this song his own with his beautiful vocal. The whole of this live concert is the best I've ever seen. Such a talented performer with bucket loads of charisma . He's still got it all ....my favourite . Gets me through the best and worst of times. Forever grateful for John and his music.
I found John Mayer a few days ago and I'm in LOVE!
He's got a beautiful voice, amazing guitarist, and I love the way he smiles in the middle of the song, after a particular note or chord, and that smile just melts my heart ❤
You still listening to him?
@@talktalk2412 sometimes, yes.
@@vedicfrequency How often?
John Mayer's voice is the only thing that can save my lonely ass from depression
One of the best live performers the world has. I saw him touring with his trio and it rates as one of my favorite concerts ever.
The best cover of free falling and theres no dispute in that !
hoenstly i think this one is 10x better
The background music is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard.
You mean, the music?
I'd be honored if some old-school John Mayer fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of his early masterpieces CLARITY and LOVE SOON on my YT channel in tribute to the boss. Live acoustic with no digital editing. Thanks and Happy '020s to all.
Mike Msssé sing this much better.
Seriously this is the best background music you ever heard? It’s only a few chords lmao
@@elidaniel5939 Its not about the number of chords its about the way you use those chords. I have been playing this for last 8 years and i don't think anything more beautiful can be made by just keeping it so easy.
I’ll do anything to go back in time to witness this masterpiece live
greatest live acoustic guitar performance of all time
This was a timeless moment. A timeless moment to an already timeless song. It makes your heart stop how beautiful it is. Unbelievable

Can you imagine being in that crowd that day listening to this live like omg
+Phil McIndoe I was there, it was a cold rainy night in LA. And this whole show had everyone's jaws on the floor. Still the best "listening music" concert i've ever been to. I was a 17 year old pup, who didn't know what he was listening to would one day become pretty damn iconic.
+TheJordaddy35 dude not to be mean or anything but you look like you are 40 or 50
+Phil McIndoe with a woman/man you love
i kr
I can only imagine
Everything about this is beautiful and I've probably watched/listened to this video more times than I should admit lol.
hehehe
Same😍
Liz Schultz so true, one of the great song written, and that puts every doubtful part (so true to me) at the peaceful place
Ugh I just released ur a wamen. Still im a man of my word
He's been playing this live on his ongoing acoustic tour. Absolutely magical. Get tickets if you can!
John Mayer sees colors when he plays. So beautiful. :)
I'd be honored if some John Mayer fans would take a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal interpretations of his early compositions CLARITY and LOVE SOON on my YT channel in tribute to the boss. Live acoustic with no digital editing. Thanks and peace.
It’s hypnotic. So beautiful.
Hello Karen, how is everything going with you?
Yes. I love this video what unique voice nice lyrics. How are you Karen ?
If this is actually his natural voice with no effects I think this is the best male vocal performance I’ve ever heard
True 💯❣️
@@Swatioo10 100%
Look up ocean eyes cover guy with a beard you would like it
I LOVE this. Great blend of voices, harmony and guitars. SO good.
It's 1:25 a.m. and I have my finals in 7 hours and 4 minutes. I can't sleep due to anxiety but somehow I came here and listened to this masterpiece and now I have chills all over my body. What a memorable yet scary moment in my life embellished by this song. Thanks John!
Living Life did you pass the exam?
Ye how dya go
I found your comment. Got a presentation and an exam tomorrow, in less than 10 hours. Still have to sleep and i'm still studying. But what am I doing also ? Listening to this !! :D
You´re welcome hahaha
Did u pass ur finals?
Crazy how you can be listening to a song a lot when you’re going through something in life and then even years later when you hear it again you feel the exact same way. That’s this song for me.
Best version of this song. The guitar skills by all are unreal. Perfect collab of harmony right there, along with John's voice. Beautiful.
This rendition is unique enough to be it’s own song entirely
Totally different vibe. He killed it
💯
You can never overtake a legendary song for what it is, but John Mayer does. Great tribute here. His support guitarist and vocalists do an amazing job too but the whole thing put together is amazing! 10/10

This is one of the best things I ever discovered and I’m just fucking greatfull we have RUclips and the ability to listen and see John mayer. I don’t know why but I find myself here every other day without realising how much I NEED this every time...I just can’t describe the way this video makes me feel
I'd be honored if some John Mayer fans would take a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal RUclips performances of his early masterpieces CLARITY and QUIET in tribute to the boss. Live acoustic with no digital editing. Peace out and stay safe.
John's music never goes out of style.Its what's called timeless music, food for the soul
His voice is like velvet. Never tire of it (Oct 2024)
Whoever got to see this live, I envy the hell out of you. You witnessed a masterpiece before your own eyes.
Voofdoochile

He put a unique spin on a classic. Definitely the best cover version I've ever heard.
12 years gone and still one of the greatest live vocal performances I think I've ever heard. 🙏🙂❤️

I'm only 16 years old, but i know for a fact that at my wedding, this is the song for father daughter dance. Me and my dad are obsessed with john mayer and this is our favourite.
Cute
@Eve Tyler You should listen to Boyce Avenue's cover of this before you get married =)

I dont usually like covers, but wow, John nailed this. His voice is so dreamy, mellow, and amazing. How does he do it! So beautiful❤
Hello Becca how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
Anyone can’t help but cry when listening to this? Despite knowing all his deep cuts. There’s something so genuine and John about this version of the song.
