John Mayer does an interview with MSM's own Richard Young and JM Team. They are to thank for all the great moments shown in this wonderful interview. Enjoy.
"And I will at some point want to, need to make a record that I say ya know, let's put this out in a different way, let's put this out in a way that doesn't expect to sell a lot of copies. I need to do this for me in this labor of love." Born and Raised my friends.
I always thought "So much wasted in the afternoon.So much sacred in the month of June.How bout you? " meant a June wedding. Just because he's talking about a relationship and at the very beginning of the song he says "The rock candy's melted, only diamonds now remain". "Worried about rainy weather", "Remaining in our lives together". It made sense to me. It's also the song I've over played the most. I love clarity.
100% agree that john is one of the few artists nowadays that have the ability to balance art with commerce. He´s such a genuinely original artist! He´s not interested in being at the top list of most played, he just into making the music that he wants to share, not with the world music business patters, but with his own patterns and influences.
"...right, just get all the members of Chicken Foot, just on vocals; thats just voca..." HAHA! This video, along with the other two are gold; especially the Clarity bit; i literally "lol'd;" and that's a rarity haha just awesome!
I don’t know. Once it exists I will finish it no matter how long it takes! The incubation time may vary but time is still immaterial. There is only a continuous now no matter how long that is.
Sense doesn’t enter into it really. Looking back it will make sense but I get that John Mayer has anxiety but sometimes you have to stand up say hey time will tell and fu basically. There is no pleasing everyone but I understand the trying
If he were to sing a duet with a woman I would really like to hear him sing with Alana Davis, Jewel or Brooke Fraiser, Bonnie Rait? Heck I'll sing with you...with my whole heart...♥
john you ARE a guitar god.... do the blues trio stuff you do so well because YOU want to.... please..... i know pop songs sell you records and get you plenty of gash.... but still... sort it out man.
it always amazes me when the people doing these types of interviews seem like the most boring, uninterested people in the world....I mean i have no professional "interviewing" skills but i think I could do a lot better or at least have some interest and ask questions in an engaging way

How he talks about that line in clarity cracks me up
i always thought 'wtf' when i heard that line so its even funnier that he says the same thing
John can make 2 albums of unreleased songs and it will be better than all the trash in the charts now
so rightly said

The dead! His dream band! :)
6:00 onwards...music gold. Absolute genius. I wish I had that genius...that's the way forward.
thanks for uploading this. its cool to hear his explanation for continuing to make pop music instead of going heavy into blues.
born and raised is exactly what hes talking about when he will eventually put a record out for himself....
Sincerely, I don't pay too much attention to the lyrics I rather appreciate how good it sounds. "how about you" fits good.
You ARE a guitar god. Accept it!
Eurika badu, Lupe Fiasco for energy, John guitar, and police base.
