I love John Mayer's work because he's a flawed person. Just like all of us. Beyond the awesome god-like guitarist, beyond the sweet pop songs, beyond the magazines and the sparkles, there's something in him which he manages to convey through his body of work. A loneliness, a weakness which makes him relatable to all of us. To me, this is rather unique of an artist of this scope. He might sound corny and arrogant at first sight, but if you pay attention hard enough, you'll find he is actually one of the most honest big names out there. He's still just this normal shy teenage kid with an amazing gift behind all of those fame made layers. He's honest to us, and he's also able to be honest to himself when he digs deep for albums like "Paradise Valley" or "Born and Raised" to come out. "Dear Marie" is the epitome of this.
I couldn’t agree more. People’s hate for him is unwarranted because he has changed since he was 22. He’s admitted his mistakes and moved on. He also has a charity that he started discreetly because he didn’t want it to seem like he was doing it to get attention.
@Lacey Facchinei I mean he wrote a tell all book naming all the woman he slept with. Go watch 3 interviews with him and you’ll see how much of a douche bag he is
@@ryderfletcher8670 you narrow down like 2 decades of music and other interviews to a few bad ones. Sure they weren't great but you're definitely giving those way more weight than they should get
Dear John, I truly wish you will find another “Marie”, who will love you for who you are inside your soul and Not about how famous&rich you might be! 😘🙏
@@beatsmithaudio9245 I actually went searching to see if Marie ever responded to the song and I can't seem to find anything. I must assume she knows, right?
I love this guy - good luck, John. I hope you find that person who will love you for who you are.. not just because of your fame but because you are a regular kind-hearted soul that is just as vulnerable as all of us
@@Tunesnthings I used to feel the same way six kids later can't explain to you how happy I am your time will come you just haven't found the right one yet.
@@johnknottiii3815 not for everyone, for each lifetime in whatever shape or form, apparently, there must be space in between. But, waiting for love in the current state is like watching a tree grow taller and wider. Peace !
There was a little adorable boy I remember from preschool. He had dark hair. We couldn’t communicate cuz I didn’t speak English then. I remember having to square dance with him. I was so in love. I’ve never forgotten him either.
@@ajengjok3792 John was 15 when he saw her, so she might have been 15 or couple of years younger, no less than that. John is 43 so Marie might be in her 40 to 43. She doesn't look or act like someone in their 40s, so no she isn't
His song dear Marie says the she got herself a family while he got his dreams. Pretty safe assumption that she has an SO. But damn it, that little sucker called my heart wishes otherwise hahaha
John, thank you for singing "How Great Thou Art." I found the video you mentioned. You said you'd never heard it before. If you'd like to hear the third verse in English, please watch the video of Vince Gill and Carrie Underwood singing it at the ACM awards- makes me cry everytime. Hope you're doing well. Hugs.
It’s not just fame, it’s success in general. It’s difficult to know whether people are interested in you for your status and financial security, or your actual character. I’m not successful btw lmao but that’s just what I imagine
I have had love at first sight. I did not know love could be that way. I found out the man who had everything; he could not offer me anything that I already had, but needed was true Love !
It's so easy making the same choice of partner over and over and over again, and the new relationship makes you feel (bad) like the last time, when instead you should search for the opposite (type) - you feeling joyful, comfortable and confident. What can I say - it's hard.
Hey saw u on here the other day listening to and playing along with dead , sounded great can't wait to see dead and co this spring and summer, hey check out the dark star >warf rat >dark star from 2- 18- 71 .it's honestly incredible I know ull dig it , it's on you tube, easy to find, there's a special treat on the path back to dark star seriously amazing stuff . Well I'll talk at u later lol , hang in there man the right chick is out there
He is so lonely and empty. Big void. I don't think any person will ever be enough for him because he doesn't feel whole. It's not that there are no amazing women out there. It's him projecting his sadness and feeling nobody is good enough.
I love John but I hope he understands that the relationship wouldn't have lasted, even if he had never left and gotten famous. Rarely does anyone fall in love at 15 and live happily ever after with that person...silly romanticism...
It’s rare but it does happen. knew my now wife since 13 years of age, We finally got together at 16 she being 17 got married at 23 , I’m now 39 she’s 40, have 2 kids and a grand baby. It was hard, There was some growingpains for both of us haha but I will say the juice was worth the squeeze.

He’s never said anything publicly about his religion but John is one of the smartest celebrities out there he’s very knowledgeable you can tell by the way he talks , so it make sense that he wanted to experience religion himself at such a young age.

His soul is so beautiful.
He pretty much admits he aint married yet cause he cant trust 'her' to not be a gold digger 😂😂😂
actually he was a huge douchebag narcissistic asshole throughout his entire career. You can find a lot of evidence of this.

Don’t we all
He is like us.
That’s exactly why I don’t get how people can hate John ,he’s so down to earth ,you can tell he’s real , he’s not trying to fake anything
And the reason you can tell that is bc he’s so real, not like other celebrities, he’s just like us
You’re thinking about listening to that song now
You caught me
FR LMAO
I just listened to it, I'm now researching who marie is
I'm kinda shook by this answer I was not expecting that genuine of a response 😂

Will definitely be hard at this day and age

So bittersweet.
Bittersweeeeeet, you’re gonna be the death of me. I don’t want you, but i need you. I love and i hate you at the very same time.
very relatable John. Can't stop listening to Dear Marie!
He's right. This is so damn wholesome

u can never replace a persons first love :”))
He got so emotional at the end. Damn! To all the tabloids out there, Mayer has a heart God Damn it! He isn't some womanizer you keep writing about.
I got my dream
And you got yourself a family
Wonder did Marie tell her significant other that John Mayer wants to hit her up..
who said she has a significant other, she couldve been and still be single

now im gonna cry
That almost made me cry..
so great and beatiful that he was so big now and he even dont shame about this, beatiful soul john mayer.
Wow, just wow
this is so wholesome
Gonna go listen to Dear Marie now.
great story great song
So he's basically saying that you can't find genuine love once you become famous... This is sad
not sure thats what he means..just imagine all the fans that love him.i dont think he spends alot of time feeling sad

Love this
Wow I love that
He looks so cute.
Glad he found her tho, not just some random judge in ohio no mo.
i want to see marie sooo desperately
such a wholesome story :)
and then you see his shirt lol
Did the back of the girl’s head look like the back of the head of that princess from The Last Airbender movie?
♥️
Where can I watch John’s current mood?

My life is already complicated. I've never found my Marie (not yet)

Sujeitinho simpático né?
I wonder how long they went out.... Obv before City Love, 3x5s
I'm assuming like most high school relationships maybe a couple months after senior year...
The Bart Nevermind t-shirt tho
And what’s the lucky girl’s name? Will we ever know or where is she from?
😔🙁❤

You wouldn't give him a second glance if he wasn't a famous rockstar lol
@@tubingforever not true.
@@vsands Very true.
I feel your pain but would you give me a 2nd glance?
go to her.
And if you're somewhere up the road can you show me what I still can't see
why did he find her tho?? does it mean that john still liked that damn lucky girl after all this years???
He is so lonely and empty. Big void. I don't think any person will ever be enough for him because he doesn't feel whole. It's not that there are no amazing women out there. It's him projecting his sadness and feeling nobody is good enough.

Didn't he already know her name before writing Dear Marie? I mean he did date her
Koushik Bhattacharya he did not know her new married last name, hence why he couldn’t find her.

And Marie is a placeholder name, not her actual name

Aww John, u marshmallow
So he stalked an old girlfriend
Lmaooooooooo
Love at 1st sight is mostly your partner forever so maybe thats why he don't find love anymore.😅
She must be tempted to leave her husband if she heard this.
