Yes!! Honoured to have you both perform this. Incredible job.
Love this. This song will be remembered for all time. Truly a gem of songwriting.
🥺🫶
This will go down as one of the best songs ever made.
Its awesome that you noticed it and had time to recognize it!
Even though the last lyric was missing? Brown nose boys.
Three guitarists on the stage. Two playing John Mayer signature models. The one not playing a John Mayer signature model? John Mayer.
Goated comment
Hahahahhahaha😂😂
Ibanez?
@@supson44 Mayer is playing a Jackson Soloist
@@tommynoble3428 Yeah lately he’s been playing some Japanese and usa made ones from esp,charvel and Jackson ,maybe he’s more inclined to 80s guitars after his last album
John completed the main quest. He's just doing the side missions for fun now.
Underrated comment
Your guitarist had to be nervous playing that solo. What a honor/ horrifying experience know your gonna be immediately followed by a Mayer solo. A+
he crushed that solo too 🔥
He crushed it but then JM killed him sadly
@@Takeiteasy11 completely agree, John literally wiped the floor with him
It's just so hard to match John's feel. He just makes everything flow. Other guitarist had some good licks, but you could tell he wasn't totally locked in comparatively.
@@jmd489 it’s not just feel, which obviously he’s the king, but something about his tone just fills so full. It’s incredible and unmatched.
First solo was solid but man Mayer’s phrasing is just on another level. Always a joy to hear John solo
Love how Alexander and his guitarist both have a PRS John Mayer signature, and John shows up with his pink Jackson - amazing cover though!
John both gave Alexander and his guitarist Silver Skys on May 3rd at the Toronto show from the Sob Rock Tour.
Exactly what I was thinking 😂
That was the first thing I noticed as well when I clicked on this video
They have a new silver sky in Roxy pink too. Wonder what his prs contact looks like. Possibly doesn't apply if he's not fronting or a guest appearance.
@@monochromedout Fender was really difficult regarding this, and that a big reason he moved away from them. I belive he can play whatever he wants now. He even plays Fenders on occation :p
John’s been using that whammy bar a lot more lately and I love it, so much emotion in that solo, his phrasing is just out of this world
Very asato-like
@@brunoerckmam5070 He's been doing that before Mateus was known. It's a Jeff Beck thing
@@samme79 yup, he's been studying the great Jeff Beck
@@brunoerckmam5070 he’s been doing the beck thing long before asato tho technically
The man has so much taste
The moment when you’re on stage with one of the best guitarists in the world playing backup for you on a classic pop song!
No relation Mitch but you are 100% correct. John is a treasure!
Everyone playing JM signatures and he comes out with a Jackson Soloist. Love it.
John going from fingers to pick while manipulating the whammy at 2:58 is insane
Why is it insane?
@@leif1075try it
john's tone here is probably one of the best guitar tones I've ever heard
I swear dude, it might even sound better than Where The Light Is
It’s up there. Even tho he typically uses a couple tube screamers in his signal chain, it sounds like he’s using distortion with a bit of chorus it sounds heavenly
Its the player dude
How can I play like him then?
@@leif1075 Practice
I love seeing John using the whammy bar. This whole performance was insane. Everyone on stage knew exactly what they were doing.
I was there and the crowd SUCKED for your set but you guys crushed it!
they probably dont realize how good the band was and that John Mayer himself was there
2:57, love how they do their own solos but then John goes right into the hook. Fantastic rendition.
Jesus. The way that Mayer emotes through his playing never fails to amaze me. You guys killed this!
That "TONE" coming from the Jackson is Incredible!! Great solo work!
it's not the guitar
@@liamjenkins244 Exactly! Even if he plays an odd Jackson you can still hear John coming through
….but I bought a Silver Sky so I could sound like John Mayer… lol
He probably has his pedal rig but who knows if he has a two rock sitting back there. Possibly not in a guest spot. But unmistakable guitar playing either way
@@eric9867
Me too! 😂
John is incredible. He plays with Grateful Dead members and makes Garcia proud. He is an amazing musician
Known as Dead & Company.
Holy crap! JM playing a Jackson sounded amazing. It definitely shaped how he decided to play and was super cool. Incredible cover, too, absolutely on point
This is the kind of solos I want John to keep putting out. That was a simple but crazy good solo. Very melodic and follows the changes really well. Also you got a great voice and this was a really cool cover.
so good! alexander just announced his own tour!
I’m an old lady who loves this song so much. And you two have made this in your own version so well. Thanks indeed.
John Clayton Mayer……. 1 of the GREATEST guitarists of our generation……. PERIOD.
Every guitarist & musician all replaying the solo where John Mayer starts playing...
Wow... that tone...
WELL DONE. Every time I hear those first chords I get chills because if done right this song WILL TEAR THE ROOF OFF THE SUCKA every time. Props to TforF for contributing THIS to the soundtrack of our lives. Alex and John and company give us one more version to luv.
There’s a WHOLE LOTTA RHYTHM goin down for sure my friend!
@@aisaiahcosey5130 I kinda meant the whole intro, sorry.
Y’all killed this man… My friend and I were mind-blown by what y’all did in Pittsburgh last week!! Definitely gained 2 new fans that night!
The tone on that pink PRS is insane!!
The look on Alexander’s face mid John’s solo - love to see that in an artist - proper appreciation.
Imagine having John casually come play rhythm at your show! So cool
I watch this video like 3 times a day, everyone killed this
same i even learned the first solo, wish it was on apple music😅
Really impressed by this vocal performance 👏🏿
very random thought, but i think that John Mayers style of soloing would sound amazing on a song by the 1975 especially on their second album
When John came in with the solo, I got major chills.
3 guitars perfectly not crowding each other, and a great mix.
Unreal that you put an 80s Jackson shredder in John Mayer's hands it sounds like a 60s strat.
so incredible and honored to watch you grow. from only having dirty AF1s released when i first saw u, to touring with John Mayer, never stop doing what you’re doing! excited to see what’s next!!
two of my favorite people on the planet. i am SO proud of you, alexander 🤍
Well this is something I had no idea I needed in my life. Y’all killed this one for real.
@@TJGWORLD honestly you’re probably right. They’re both incredibly talented and could probably make just about anything sound great.
Proud to be your 100th like on this comment. Totally agree!
3 guys complimenting each other with stepping on each other...awesome!
Without stepping
After going to this concert in Toronto, all I can say is that seeing JM colab on this cover is so sick.
Should be released. Can I say as a John fan - it's now all about what he can give and contribute. Awesome
Just goes to show you tone is all in the hands and fingers. John Mayer makes that 80s metal shred guitar sound like a Strat! Wonderful vocals by Alex 23 - what a soulful voice he's got! I love how they rearranged the middle section so that the original solo was the final one. Amazing job by elite musicians, and a true band effort.
I love that they're using John's Signature PRSs
I can't find words to express to your song you really are ausum and what a peaceful and beautiful songs. Really loved it from India
well that blows my recording out of the water, even from the front! Thanks for the lovely surprise Alexander, you really nailed it on this tour!!
this is genuinely one of my favourite videos to watch of all time, i keep coming back to it every few weeks
Sam Yun is a killer guitarist too. So solid from everyone!
I just discovered these guys and this is FIREEE
Favorite live cover of this classic
Loving that I stumbled on this! Nostalgia to the max! And gorgeous tones on that Jackson and let's not forget that killer lead by the dude on the pink guitar right up back!
The pink guitar is John Mayer's signature guitar. It is the PRS ( Paul Reed Smith) Silver Sky, JM signature model guitar
in the shade Roxy Pink. The green guitar is John's PRS Silver Sky SE model in the shade Evergreen. My son bought a version
of the Silver Sky guitar when they first came on the market, he loves the guitar and says it is the easiest playing guitar he
ever owned. Kudos to John for designing a phenomenal guitar.
i grew up on rap learned to love other music like death metal, country, classic rock and everything in between but if anyone asks what my favorite song is i always tell them everybody wants to rule the world by tears for fears
Awesome performance of one of my favorite songs from my favorite band, Tears for Fears. Thank you so much 😊
Congrats Alexander !! I was hoping you would perform with john one day. Would've loved to see this live.
I have heard it like so many times incredibly talented you all are specially you and your friend it's mind blowing a big fan of yours all the way from India..
two of my all time favorite people. so forever proud of you alexander this is huge
this is amazing!!♥️♥️ watching you grow, i feel so lucky!! i hope tour has been good to you.♥️ take care of yourself, alexander!! i can’t wait to see the next chapter!!
That was an epic moment! thank you for posting this master piece!
Never thought this was much of a guitar song, but they made it one, and did it so tastefully.
I remember when you only had Dirty AF1s released, now you've got another album coming soon?!? I can't wait, know its gonna be epic!!
I’m so proud of how far you’ve come, but with your talent it was kind of obvious you would
ly alexander
The pink jackson super strat goes hard though
what an amazing cover!! such a vibe will be listening to this a BUNCH
I’ve watched this more times than I can count. Something extraordinary happened here. The way Alex phrases is magical, the first solo is perfection and the tone on John’s guitar is otherworldly. Thank you to whoever filmed this.
so good! alexander just announced his own tour!
I was at this show and this was the highlight of the entire night! An artist coming out before their show to play with the opener and matching the vibes of the opener. It was awesome!!
John Mayer humility right there. Doesn't try to out-shine the band, just does his thing gets into it with the band.
so this was from john's tour? i thought this was alexander's
@@sifaazh Yes John's tour, Alexander was the opener for John.
Absolutely in love with this. Sounds simply amazing!!!
I always liked this song, nice to see it given new life. Love the solo from John!
Mixing and production on this sounds so amazing
I'm so insanely proud and happy for you Alexander! You also sound amazing!🥰
Great job fellas, I love this! You all sound so good. Thank you for sharing, I'm sending you much love.💛🙏🏼😊
One of my favorite songs and one of my favorite artists this is amazing!!
John looked like he didn't want to stop playing at the end.
This makes me so happy! Next tour: John is gonna be the one opening for you. I love this video so much! ❤❤❤

Dude the audio is amazing. Thank you!
One of the most beautiful solos ever.Tears For Fears showed the world what great songs really can do.
I've listened to Tears for Fears do this song in the rain, in the snow, in the wind and in the sunshine and it never fails to stop my in my tracks with it's brilliance.
Yesss! Great version 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Incredible; love when John just gets to groove and play
I didn't know John Mayer played Jacksons so when I saw that broomstick of a headstock I laughed for a good while lol
i was there - this moment was EUPHORIC.
Bro my mind was blown that entire time. Im in awe.
This is WILD!!! So unbelievably proud of you
Best cover I've ever heard
One of my all time fav tunes performed by two amazin' supa stas. JM is so generous and complementary to Alexander 23. A perfect pairing. Luv, luv, luv this delivery ❣❣❣
Cool!!! Every guitar in there sounded great!!!
the sound quality in this recording is top shelf.
John prouve encore une fois qu'il est fan des années 80🤗Thanks!!!!!
Lindo demais! Nice guitar tones. Great performance.
One of my all time favorite songs!
No
Sublime performance of everybody wants to rule the world!
