These are poeple who are truly passionate into music. Who isn't just making music for fame and money. But who showers us light and love, gives us inspiration to keep going in life. I love both of them💕
The amount of smart and consummate musicianship that is going on in this video is so, so underrated. This is what it is like to watch pop musicians work at the top of their game. There is talent oozing off even the nooks and crannies of that stage.
While i don't disagree that they are, in fact, Pop musicians, this is R&B baby! Rhythm and freaking Blues, and they absolutely smashed it! Pop would be more "produced", more danceable, and more of a product ( which isn't a bad thing ), but there's a distinction to be made and i think it's very important to not confuse the two. Great comment btw!😁
Their energy is beautiful. Like two old high school friends coming together after a while and singing a song together. The smiles on their faces are priceless
I think I will never get tired of listening to this masterpiece. Alicia Keys is so dope. I can't stop watching this track again and again. I am sure she will be #1 soon due to 💖a u t h e n t I c v i e w s 💖
It’s the way Alicia smiled wholehearted, bare faced, no makeup, and John lost himself in music that makes this performance so intimate, so human. I feel like watching just people, like you and me, making beautiful music on a stage in New York.
Her smile is other-worldly for sure. It does make this performance very intimate. Such a gorgeous woman, I suspect both inside and out. Although I doubt she's not wearing any makeup. It's just very tastefully restrained, which is a breath of fresh air in this day of so many looks that are way over the top.
Alicia and John are among a few artists in the early 2000s era that have elevated themselves to all-time greats with all time-classic songs. I can easily imagine people still vibing to If I Aint Got You and Gravity some 30-40 years from now, in the same way that we are still vibing to timeless 70s and 80s songs from time to time.
Alicia is so beautiful. She was born to bring and sing us this song. Every time she does, it is a sermon and a reminder of what really matters. This is my favorite performance of this song. Thank you for sharing your talent with us all. It's made the world a better place to live in.
if you listen to her talking parts on the USA voice, you will realise you are correct, she is everything you'd imagine, such a nice woman, she sings to a contestant too, the 'lily' song, check it.
No she has the talent she is the female Elvis of this past Generation along with Adele. I respect her more cuz she was so Hot and she stopped wearing makeup like 8-10 years ago like in this Video. She has none on and at first I was like Damn. But after I saw her her Soul and Voice she went to prove to Young Girl's out there you do t git to be a Whore bag Slut like No talent Katie Perry who can't Sing live. And that Man Beast Beyonce who even lip sync The National Anthem, LOL like WTF does that but that fake bitch. There all Studio fake Bitches. Just like 2PAC said about the Studio Gangsta. She's even more beautiful with No make-up and what a voice and you can tell she loves and believes in God which she has Said. Which is why her Career has not exploded any Bigger. Cuz she would t sell her Soul. A lot of you don't know the sick Shit and rules and things you got to do and pay to be a Huge Star.
This last week has been extremely difficult with radiation treatments for cancer. No energy can barely move. Now I feel life in me because of these amazing performances by Alicia Keys and John Mayer. Thank you so much.
I love how they're just a couple of friends jamming but they're legends and it's Times Square....not an ardent follower of either John Mayer or Alicia Keys I do love a couple of their songs individually but I keep coming back to this particular live performance time and time again coz they just up there vibing ❤

I apologize for interrupting, but I have been searching for assistance with this type of trading as my work consumes most of my time, leaving me with limited opportunities to focus on trading. How can I get to know him?
Maria Pia I think it’s an uncontrollable laugh when you realise how good something is. How often does she hear other people perform on her song, to hear John Mayer sing it his way and make it sound good too must be amazing.
the intimacy of her performance is striking. She's in the middle of Times Square surrounding by thousands of people, but the way she gently croons into the microphone across those first few bars makes you feel like she's singing just to you. It's gentle and delicate, before striking a high note just as a warning shot of how powerful her voice really is
Omg! I was so deep inside of this performance that I hated when it ended - and Alicia’s beauty was emphasized by her totally natural inner beauty that no one on this planet could compare to - I will treasure this forever and probably beyond! Their voices complimented each other completely and his guitar solo was mesmerizing- This was MAGICAL! Thank you, Alicia and John
I'm an old man. Doing a lot of thinking about how fast life passes by and how temporary our lives are. Every now and then the right people come together at the right time and create a few moments that are so perfect. I am so lucky to be alive during the time of RUclips. Any time that I'm feeling down, I can click on a special video like this and be instantly transported to a few perfect moments, where all my cares and worries just float away.
three absolute legends in their own respective genres coming together and just being immersed in the music and the vibe is so beautiful to see. it’s wonderful watching people who are so passionate do what they do and be fully in it
@@kezza10mail just because something is unrehearsed, doesn't make it half-assed. Because they are pros means they can go out and just feed off of eachother and make it sound great.
It's talent, it comes from years of daily work and practice. They would most likely play for free because to them its their calling and what they love to do.
Hi! I’ve written a song called Real Life Dance. It’s about having a dream and it being like a romance in your head but then turning into something real like a dance. ruclips.net/video/DV7nUQj-9gg/видео.html
This song really made me appreciate the impact a good drummer has on a song. The beat doesn't sound that complicated, but I wouldn't want it to be any more than it is. The timing and every stroke is impeccable. Doesn't overpower the song, it's perfect.
Drummers ALWAYS are the musical leaders. Anyone who has been part of a band knows that the drummer is the one who have the timming and order for the rest. Thats why drummers always give that one, two, three with the sticks before the jam starts I played the guitar and my best jams have come from joining my man Richard vibin in the drumms
@@fruitdemer201 Yeah.. she has both. Why are you trying to dictate what someone else can talk about? It's okay to stop and admire how naturally beautiful she is as well.
Andra Piers how is he lying? I watch this and get the same exact feeling. She is the most beautiful person on the planet. Her looks, voice, charisma and charm aren’t mutually exclusive. She’s just beautiful inside and out in every way possible. Try not to be triggered so much. You can’t even let a compliment go. Life’s too short baby. 💯love
What a true beauty Alicia is.... not just in looks (although those are certainly there) but in spirit, personality, heart, warmth, integrity, kindness, intellect, intelligence, creativity, talent, and on and on, ad infinitum...♥️
Just unbelievable stunning musical performance … Alicia’s vocal ability at the end with John’s guitar is genius … she is beyond heavenly sounds from her voice and her fingers. Her timing 🙇🙇🙇
This is one of the best live performances I've ever seen, and there is so much to love about it, most of which has already been stated in other comments. One of my favorite parts is at around 3:30, That smile on the young guy's face standing on a stage in NYC between these two musical giants singing to each other is simply priceless! What an experience! Then fast-forward to about 5:48 when Alicia starts singing Gravity...John turns and looks at the other musicians like friends, it's just so great. I think the one striking thing about this performance is the energy, humility, mutual respect, and friendship vibe on the stage. It's truly awesome!
This is a damn masterpiece. I come back to this every few months to watch and still am so impressed. Alicia's voice is like bottled diamonds, she contains one of the most beautiful voices on earth and I'm glad her passion is shared with us all.
This is one of the most real performances ever. Just three artists enjoying their talent together. The vibe was beautiful, I’m so glad this was documented so I could experience it too

As a 30 year old man that has RUclips playing most of the day, at work and home... This is my favorite video of all time. I also never comment on videos. Thousands and thousands of hours of RUclips, this is the one.
Nobody said 30 is old! It's just a frame of reference, this man has been around since the inception of RUclips yet comes back to this video. I understand, as a 32 yr old who primarily watches RUclips
Could not agree more 😢 I can’t hear it enough and I’m a vining 66 year old granny !! I think John beats them all , Eric who ? Alicia is a beautiful gift to our crazy world ❤
@@catherinegribble2449 I do ❤ this duet with Mayer, BUT I don’t understand you’re comparison with Eric Clapton’s music style if that’s what you’re comparing it with?! Both are in completely different genres and types of music they play imo! But I think they’re ALL great in their own class!
6:20 and on to the end lights the fire in my soul that’s not present in everyday life. Alicia screaming at 7:42 brings me to tears every time, it brings out all of my emotions at once. This is by far the most raw and powerful performance of genius, heart, and soul I’ve ever come across and I have to watch it every couple months to light that fire again.
I've seen JM blow everyone away with his guitar playing on Gravity, but love the fact that he kept it understated in this performance - it was Alicia Keys' gig after all. A true gent.
@@krisbarringer1509 Yep, and more so , he got the opportunity to play alongside him, you can even see in their jam sessions how BB was looking at him, like a proud father watching his son
Alicia Keys sings backing vocals on the original studio recording of Gravity + he plays guitar and sings backing on Lesson Learned. They are both so talented and know exactly how to be the lead or be the support.
John plays just a few notes on his guitar to start his solo and the crowd already starts cheering. That man makes a guitar tell a fucking story, my god
Probably one of the very few guitar heroes in post-2000s era And probably the most all-round one... Aside from guitar skills and musicality, he sings well and is very good looking But he is reaching his mid-40s...
Essa apresentação me causa algum sentimento indescritível. É tão lindo, tão único e tão cativante que nunca vi nada parecido. Vez enquando venho rever essa obra de arte! Alicia sempre perfeita e o John conseguiu melhorar ainda mais nesse dueto!
@@garlowloke we're talking about a drummer who himself is one of the top drummer in the world, and he didnt over do it here and to quote some "he kept it inside the pocket",
@Kilo Mintoni sucking corporate ass gets you money, but theres no question he is talented at playing music though. Seems like you're focusing on the wrong aspects of music when theres 3 people who actually play their instruments on stage performing live. It was free form. not a basic syncopated corporate song and dance performance you normally see.
@@Aswinishere It was bad enough the superbowl was ruined with the trash music the last time and this trash music does not need to be at a superbowl either.
A beautiful love letter to New Yorkers everywhere from NYC. Beautiful performance by all. Mayer's playing reminds me of his incredible performance at MJ's funeral. Grazie, mil grazie.
7:45 is just musical fusion! You got Alicia screaming, John doing epic leads on his guitar, quest just going to town with the drums, while all being tied in by the backup vocals and musicians. JUST GREAT!
This song is so beautiful, and the way Alicia sings it just blows me away! Some people want it all, but I don't want nothin at all... daaaaaamn she's so bloody talented I get chills listening to her. Who can watch this and not fall completely in Love with Alicia Keys?!😮 Wow!
I just love how both artists seem to genuinely be fans of each other's songs. The passion they deliver singing both songs are just through the roof. This is just incredible chemistry between some incredible artists.

That transition into gravity was some of the smoothest shit I’ve ever heard
Smoothest shit doesn't do it justice!!! That baby is da bomb!!!
5:41
Seriously. Even Alicia felt it.
Watch the Norah Jones 'Don't know why' /John Mayer 'your body is a wonderland' it's cute as well
Caleb Locke I am awestruck! Oh also I’ve watched it 9000000 times. This is the musical Mecca.
You can tell that Alicia, John, backup singers and musicians love what they do. There's no faking that.
Tele Opinions can’t fake the funk
My man Questlove ain't a backup musician tho dont do him like that lmao

When Mayer plays guitar you can tell that he is consumed entirely by the music. Beautiful.

My fav
It's a great feeling when you get that flow
Same as when Alicia Keys and Tori Amos play their pianos...consumed in the music
아헤가오 존 메이어...
This is by far one of the best live collabs in the history of music
Totally agree. BB King and Clapton is also on top
John Mayer Trio is the best collaboration , and then John with Keith Urban
Frank Sinatra and Celine Dion, personally the best for me.
This was really beautiful
the freddie mercury tribute as well

Amazing duo.
The hair. The flawless skin. The voice and passion. Alicia Keys.
Perfection in every way, inside & out!
Don't forget her piano skills! Girl is full package!!!

Somebody had a little crush. And I can't even blame you.

The best R n B / Soul artist of my generation hands down. I was born in 86. She’s always been a pure star from the jump.
Born in 91! Love her so much!
The best version of these two songs ever, they both absolutely killed it. 🔥🔥🔥
As a 30 year old man that has RUclips playing most of the day, at work and home... This is my favorite video of all time. I also never comment on videos. Thousands and thousands of hours of RUclips, this is the one.
don't say "as a 30 year old man" that's not old...don't say it like that, please ;O
Lol you guys funny 😂, you guys young forever 😀👍
Nobody said 30 is old! It's just a frame of reference, this man has been around since the inception of RUclips yet comes back to this video. I understand, as a 32 yr old who primarily watches RUclips
Thank you for sharing this
Yes Dude
The sight of Alicia Keys bitting her lip while smiling, surrounded by her beautiful curly hair, must be my 2019 highlight. And it's only January...
This my favorite song from her! I love it! And John Mayer, too?! Holy crap!
How could I see this video for the first time only now? Goosebumps!!!
This has the best vibe of any live performance I’ve ever seen. You can feel the energy through the screen. It’s perfect.
Lol
Agree 💯 . It's beautiful
Could not agree more 😢 I can’t hear it enough and I’m a vining 66 year old granny !! I think John beats them all , Eric who ? Alicia is a beautiful gift to our crazy world ❤
@@catherinegribble2449 I do ❤ this duet with Mayer, BUT I don’t understand you’re comparison with Eric Clapton’s music style if that’s what you’re comparing it with?! Both are in completely different genres and types of music they play imo! But I think they’re ALL great in their own class!

i love the way she giggled during John mayer's part
Apparently because he messed up the lyrics a little haha
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂😅
Jonas He didn’t mess up the lyrics though. He got her with those vocals
❤️
I loved her giggle!! It just made the vibe more special.
This is my favorite way to listen to both songs!! It's like they were meant to be played together!! ❤ I love it!!
6:20 and on to the end lights the fire in my soul that’s not present in everyday life. Alicia screaming at 7:42 brings me to tears every time, it brings out all of my emotions at once. This is by far the most raw and powerful performance of genius, heart, and soul I’ve ever come across and I have to watch it every couple months to light that fire again.
I love how tickled they are to hear the other sing their song.
Yeah it's truly amazing
It’s SO fucking cute!
Tickled
Pure love n harmony

5:42 that moment when Alicia takes your hit song and sends it straight to heaven over your head. 😂❤❤❤❤❤ John was loving it too
idk how many times i watched this. This was my go to music in the during the pandemic, and I just keep coming back to it.
I've seen JM blow everyone away with his guitar playing on Gravity, but love the fact that he kept it understated in this performance - it was Alicia Keys' gig after all. A true gent.
Even so, the way she giggles during his performance is so wholesome, goes to show how damn talented he is
He’s a fkn pro bud, he learned manners from BB.. Mr. King.
@@krisbarringer1509 Yep, and more so , he got the opportunity to play alongside him, you can even see in their jam sessions how BB was looking at him, like a proud father watching his son

Alicia Keys sings backing vocals on the original studio recording of Gravity + he plays guitar and sings backing on Lesson Learned. They are both so talented and know exactly how to be the lead or be the support.
John plays just a few notes on his guitar to start his solo and the crowd already starts cheering. That man makes a guitar tell a fucking story, my god
Probably one of the very few guitar heroes in post-2000s era
And probably the most all-round one...
Aside from guitar skills and musicality, he sings well and is very good looking
But he is reaching his mid-40s...
@@mickeygoh25 i remember an interview him saying he hates writing popular songs but he does it to play the bills haha
Do you remember when he first came on the scene doing volkswagen commercials? I knew then he was going to be a great guitarist!
and he uses the SRV Tribute strat in this vid I think so
Essa apresentação me causa algum sentimento indescritível. É tão lindo, tão único e tão cativante que nunca vi nada parecido. Vez enquando venho rever essa obra de arte! Alicia sempre perfeita e o John conseguiu melhorar ainda mais nesse dueto!
I need this on spotify ❤😪
💯
Those two just made spiritual love right in front of all of us.
mmmmm yes yes it happened 💖

Those 3 we can’t forget questlove

Quest in the house
@@sauceaberycrayon6643 lol poor quest was the camera man.....
Why is no one talkin about how Questlove simultaneously creates and breaks tension with his drummin
finally, someone who speaks english
Questloves in the house
I mean, that’s what drummers are supposed to do right?
@@garlowloke theyre supposed to keep the rhytm steady...breaking and creating tension is usually the harmonics
@@garlowloke we're talking about a drummer who himself is one of the top drummer in the world,
and he didnt over do it here and to quote some "he kept it inside the pocket",
That intro is superb. I love that woman
Still as beautiful as the first time I listened to them. 😍
It's February 2019 and those smooth Vocals still puts a Smile on my Face
Oh my god me too!
Yessssss 💖💖💖💖
YAAAAAAAASSSSSSS, KWEEN! Agreed, hunty!
me too
Shit hits the soul!
it's as if the whole universe was created for this moment to happen.
🥰
yes
Yes. It was a creative musical explosion that will be felt for decades.
Literally 😂
Hehe
Who would’ve thought this duo isn’t the duo we want, but the duo that we need.
This is literally the best thing I’ve ever seen
Bro i just discovered john mayer😅 this is awesome man my new fav 😎
They're playing their asses off. This is music.
I agree
Music baby. Fucking music
Why can't this be the superbowl halftime show?
@Kilo Mintoni sucking corporate ass gets you money, but theres no question he is talented at playing music though. Seems like you're focusing on the wrong aspects of music when theres 3 people who actually play their instruments on stage performing live. It was free form. not a basic syncopated corporate song and dance performance you normally see.
@@Aswinishere It was bad enough the superbowl was ruined with the trash music the last time and this trash music does not need to be at a superbowl either.
I feel like I should be paying to watch this
Dude this was soo epic
same tho
I felt so. So i turned my wifi off
I just saw this comment 4 years ago 😂
@@pk-xe4pw 🤣🤣
A beautiful love letter to New Yorkers everywhere from NYC. Beautiful performance by all. Mayer's playing reminds me of his incredible performance at MJ's funeral. Grazie, mil grazie.
my favorite corner of the internet, timeless masterpiece.
Studio version has left the chat
Still want one though

That’s how you tell real talent from an excellent recording studio engineer mixing parts of the 10 takes of the same song to get 1 that sounds good.
7:45 is just musical fusion! You got Alicia screaming, John doing epic leads on his guitar, quest just going to town with the drums, while all being tied in by the backup vocals and musicians. JUST GREAT!
Great bass line too
MY thoughts exactly! Just a stellar fusion of talents just pouring their souls out! Can never get over this performance.
do yall know who the bassist is?
@@matthewsoto6365 Adam Blackstone, he's also the musical director here
oh ya...everyone is tripping out
This is truly one the best soulful duets ever made! 💙
I don’t understand how I’ve never heard this before. Just beautiful.
Alicia is legitimately so beautiful, no makeup, just doing her thing.
One of the best female artists #PUREVIBE
Same for John Mayer
You just said it right 👍
You’re right! She’s a stone-cold natural beauty, with a beautiful talent to match.
Did you miss the voice?
bro the band members absolutely vibing on a different level to John Mayers guitar is fuckin sick
I know man. He kills it though as usual, but man knows his strings
how about those double bends at the beginning of Gravity?!?
Mad vibing.
Good lord Alicia keys has the most incredibly soulful voice!
I am so blown away listening to her harmonies! She is such absolute gorgeousness!
Holy cow that was amazing. Both are extremely talented and make beautiful music together. I could watch this video over and over and over..
This is probably one of the greatest transitions of songs ever
Rendition
@Off2 Thailand segue is for conversation but transition is the term in music.

This is just incredible in every sense of the word. Who else is still here in 2021?
I was just thinking the SAME thing. This is music for the SOUL.
Right here baby! Hoody hop!!!!!!! Love this.
yeeeeeaaah
They really went and created magic up there. I can't even imagine watching this live. Pure euphoria
This song is so beautiful, and the way Alicia sings it just blows me away!
Some people want it all, but I don't want nothin at all... daaaaaamn she's so bloody talented I get chills listening to her. Who can watch this and not fall completely in Love with Alicia Keys?!😮 Wow!
I just love how both artists seem to genuinely be fans of each other's songs. The passion they deliver singing both songs are just through the roof. This is just incredible chemistry between some incredible artists.
OMG!! How BEAUTIFUL this woman can be???
thats not only because shes beautiful spiritually , she also dosent wear makeup anymore.....
Love this!! So much talent!!!
It's Ridiculous!!
@@ladyfromkansas Shes so gorgeous. I hope more people follow her in getting rid of the mask that makeup can sometimes be.
I love her nose and her lips!
Epic performance. I can’t think of two better artists of our time.
John on that guitar is sending me over the moon😍😍
