    The fact that this dude plays this good in every single concert , think about it , this a video recorded by a random person with a phone , and he plays like this , how many more performances out there that would be gold! , this dude is amazing.

      That’s cos he’s playing for himself, not for the audience. Nobody gets to be that good without thousands of hours playing for themselves.

    If you don't think his picking is good, you're not a guitar player, period. Furthermore, you don't understand JJ Cale and the nuances of this style of playing. Clapton said about Mayer "I don't think he even understands how talented he is"....but then again, what does Clapton know...

      +R. Donovan Graham agree with you. On guitar playing skill JM can smoke all of them(not include jimi and srv). Clapton and BB and all other wins on their influence.

    • @Billbill80s

      He isn't picking. Hes finger picking. And he's awful at it.

    • @rgvt5638
      @rgvt5638 8 лет назад +17

      he's not sticking to any real pattern like travis picking etc, he's just playing a few bass notes w/no pick. it's still called "picking", friend.

    I personally loved this rendition of the song and had no problem with it at all, Mayer is a great guitarist whether the haters like it or not, he has guitars specially made for him by fender and prs and has played with some of the best musicians of our time. I would dream to play the shows he has played and be up on that stage instead of making a worthless RUclips comment like the rest of us on here. At the end of the day he's the one up on the big stage and we aren't. He earned it. Enough said

    Lo que amo de John Mayer es que el tipo no se cierra en algún género musical, sino que el tipo va donde su corazón va es por eso que siempre hace canciones espectaculares y sus interpretaciones son una maravilla, estamos ante el mejor guitarrista de nuestros tiempos y uno de los mejores de la historia

  • @Rex69Rutherford
    @Rex69Rutherford 4 года назад +34

    Mayer's studio version is okay, but if this live performance was recorded with better audio quality, this would be an epic version

    • @spiderguy01
      @spiderguy01 2 года назад +1

      Absolutely, and I think the reason John’s studio versions are like that is bc he likes to do this live ,when you think it’s already good enough he makes it perfect. John lets the guitar guide him and you can clearly see that in every single one of his performances, he’s a true guitar god ,a legend alive.

  • @brendabrown7864

    He's just capable of taking any song and making it look like he's been playing it his whole life . Imagine John Mayer at your barbecue and night comes when you all decide to jam by the fire and he's the +1 brought to the party and borrows someone's guitar . I'm sure he is invited to the next barbecue .
