      @@outtanuttin Jedi aren't cocky. Jedi know they are in tune with the Force or else they wouldn't be much of a Jedi. Writing music feels like you've tapped into something deep inside of you and all around you, very much like the Force.
      When John wrote "Still Feel Like Your Man", he clearly had a moment like that. It was a comparison to explain how the song came along. It didn't come across as "look at how strong I am with the Force".
      Personally, I loved hearing this because it's inspiring to hear that musicians of his tenure still get that feeling.

      Ah and see my comment. Which isn't necessarily UNTRUE, it's just it's very funny how unconsciously he does it - like, I am a one woman man so I make that comment of course just because of background - but its so funny how he unconsciously gets 'womazing' because of just how he does it. I'm good with women - pretty good actually - because of looks but I have pretty good muscles and looks for a guy! I'm very genuinely nice to woman (which I'm proud of) but this is kind of like a "level above" attracting women to what he says. Which is kind of why I like his interviews lol because he shows me what to 'work on' for what women can like - sensitivity, mysteriousness, etc. which is just idk entertaining.
      That being said, don't try disrespecting woman as a start because that's a TERRIBLE start. it's a weird dynamic. What I mean to say is, this dude is super cool but I wouldn't necessarily do what he does for chicks. And it's okay. Cool ! ok bye!

Yeah, he's said and done some stupid stuff but he's admitted that it was bc of his pride and vulnerabilities and insecurities when he was young and figuring out how to deal w being in the spotlight 24/7. I think people have this idea in their head that he's this asshole musician when in fact he's the complete opposite and this interview shows that perfectly.

Crossroads, Stones, Leon Russell, Thundercat, Buddy Guy, BB, even Barbra Streisand and Steve Jobs, plus his own work (especially the JM Trio): Have to say, maybe not "the best", but his top-shelf skills, when combined with that self-awareness you mention make him an uncannily perfect fit everywhere!

I’ve never heard someone speak about themselves to such levels like I can until I start hearing Mayer’s interviews. To be able to just explain why you do things or why you think things, or speak honestly about what you’ve done or are doing. I wish more people would understand this part of people who have self awareness. I have grown to dislike Bobby and the show, but this interview was very well done. Cheers.

      707king I think you both just have a strong sense of self. You get yourself and a lot of people live their whole lives never really knowing themselves. I'm like that too. It can seem arrogant because people are taken aback because you know yourself so well. So they look at it as you being self centered. But that's not true. Taking time to understand why you are the way you are is so revelatory.

      mmm, I dunno. I understand exactly what you're saying, and have the same sensation of recognizing myself and the way I speak and think in him, but there is a difference between self awareness, and arrogance. He not only understands himself, but thinks extremely highly of himself and his opinions, and also is aware he is speaking eloquently, and enjoys that about himself. And to a certain extent consciously presents that. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with loving yourself, in fact to the contrary I wish more people did, but I think that's what people are picking up on when they say he's arrogant, rather than his self awareness, or elegance of speech. There's a way of being self-aware, and self-loving, without coming across as arrogant, or self-important.

      I am not taking anything away from him but this notion that he is this misunderstood artist is just wishful thinking from his adoring fans.None of the flak he has gotten has been due to misunderstandings .

      I think he is really trying to say is that there are more songs that he put more effort and feeling into then the ones the radio stations wanna play. Anyone can string a bunch of cliche's together and play some basic G C A D chords and make a radio worthy song. I really enjoy the song Neon, mainly the unnatural guitar picking, tuning and chord progression.
