the coolest part about these 2 is they seem completely different john over there with his eyes closed just feeling the music and keith rocking out head banging and getting with the music yet they both work together so freaking well it’s amazing
John’s solo and guitar tone is beautiful. The fact that he can never duplicate that solo ever again and it was all on the spot played with feeling makes him one of the greatest we’ll ever see
I love how between 4:51-5:30 Keith plays these complex riffs on the mid-ish frets of the lower strings. This allows John to be a little bit more creative with those jazzy riffs higher up on the frets. I wish they made an album together with music just like this. But the way record labels are these days, this unfortunately wouldn't happen :(
I'd guess both have big enough names to make any collab album somewhat commercially viable. Mayer & Urban on an entire album would be spectacular indeed, brilliant artists who compliment each other perfectly both as guitarists and singers!
I like it that John Mayer doesnt stick to blues and pop only. other artists just say that they dont want to play in other styles because they dont dare and think it will not sell anymore or wont be as good as usual
Both of these guys are fabulous guitar players. To say otherwise is to short change both of them. They play different styles, both can play lightly or shred as necessary. Enjoy them for what they do and be glad they are both around to be listened to...
Being one of the biggest JM fans on the planet, I can say that Urban played a really melodic solo, and comped ingeniously for John. The two meshed beautifully.
I personally think his two best albums were his live ones Try! and Where the Light Is. This man is a musical genius. He can play the guitar like no one has ever seen before, acoustic or electric, and can sing just as incredibly!
Nothing here is truly improvised I believe - these are things guitarists of this caliber have touched up on many times- that said, if one had to pick a couple of guys to plead one’s case in front of St Pete at the gate with only six-string at hand, one would have to go with John for his playing and Keith for his spirit- divinity from minute 4 onwards....
@@fgb4159fr tho, however many yrs it is later I still think these guys didn’t give af about the audience by the outtro. By the 3:30 mark they were talking to God together
This is fucking great. Keith is a great player, all tight, stinging melodic bends and sweet runs, but he is also totally generous here and gives John lots of space to play his looser, improv jazz-inflected bursts of rhythm and melody. Works really well together, really rocking, authentic take on the song.
wow bro or sista , your just totally hating John Mayer. there's no way in hell you can put down John Mayer's ability to play the Guitar. Just because he produces a different style of music than you like the guy can play the Guitar. every style every beat every rhythm and, PLAYS THEM ALL GREAT. When he just jams like no one ever to music. Now as for Keith Urban........... WOW. I had no idea this guy could jam like that. NO IDEA this guy at all (thought he was just a country singer) but this guy jams. they play GREAT together. its an interesting combo that works.
John starts his magic about the 4:00 mark, it's just moving to watch and listen to what he is really hearing and his ability to play it. It just ooozzz out of him and his guitar.
I agree. You can see that in some of the older guys famous for guitar. The ones who stuck to their one genre became tired and repetitive, where as their peers who branched out are mostly still going strong. And its on both sides just like the two in the video. Clapton and Willie Nelson for example. Old dudes rockin it. You should check out some of Willie's work outside of his famous country stuff, its amazing. And Clapton has jump started his career several times in different genres.
@obga18 its hard to notice but he actually has his fender plugged in if you look at the amp left of his knees you can see the wire... i think he might of been adjusting the volume of his ear plug-ins
Awesome. Love John's solo and his interpretation of the chorus on guitar. Not digging his new look, but guess that doesn't matter. All about the Music!
Its honestly rare to see another guitarist keep up with john, especially someone whos main platform is just the guitar. Keith really shows off his chops, hes definitely on John's level, really impressive
@obga18 can you not see the rather long cable looped through the strap and then draped behind him? I've never known Mayer to go wireless. I know Clapton does and I'm pretty sure that Buddy Guy does but not Mayer.
Who says he cant try different genres? I play guitar and i play multiple genres and if i ever get famous i dont plan on limiting myself to one style, more styles means a better player
I did not realize how tall John Mayer was...unless Keith Urban is exceptionally short? I'm not a fan of country, but I did like this, mainly cause of John...
he isn't a poser... when you can play as good as him, sticking one genre gets boring after a while. it's called widening your horizons.. ever heard of it?
thats a strange guitar choice for john to play. this song is played tuned half step down and that guitar is only used on songs that are turned standard.
Don't ever sleep on the drummer. One of Greatest live songs EVER
the coolest part about these 2 is they seem completely different john over there with his eyes closed just feeling the music and keith rocking out head banging and getting with the music yet they both work together so freaking well it’s amazing
This is the greatest piece of music i've heard in a very long time. Flat out destroys anything on the radio today!
John’s solo and guitar tone is beautiful. The fact that he can never duplicate that solo ever again and it was all on the spot played with feeling makes him one of the greatest we’ll ever see
Wow, the way John's folky major chords and soloing in the breakdown changes the song is absolutely remarkable. Even Keith is intrigued by it at 3:58

When John kicks in for that final solo… goosebumps

very well said pointdexter

They need to tour together!!!!

Those last screaming notes John plays at the end of his solo were amazing considering it was all improvised...
Could you try to transcribe the CMT version ? I tried so hard... There are so many golden licks :D

+Luke M (11OCTOBER10) "LOOSER" means more relaxed. Not "LOSER" which means idiot/dumb/stupid.
love how john builds the groove in those interludes

awesome!!!! two great tastes that taste great together!!!!!!!! John + Keith = beyond amazing!!!!!!!!!!
Every album is a surprise and something new.
These two create fire works together at every performance!!
I have to come back and listen to this on a regular basis. John just checks out to a very beautiful place. Wish I could get a glimpse!
Fantastic - they sound really great together

Keith is a fantastic guitar player, but John playing is just amazing the beautiful sounds that comes from his playing just goes to the soul.
So Much Talent! 💗😊 Love them! They're great playing together. 💗😊 You got a great recording of them.
These two should play together more! Awesome music!
4:00 onward is what my Heaven would sound like.
i would like to think so :)
I think the same damn thing everytime I watch this!
LOVE LOVE LOVE. Glad to have another version, in addition to the CMT one:) Thanks for posting!
awsome tune and john being epic as usual, what can go wrong?
Minute 3.49 onwards says all one needs to know- sweet guitars, teenage love and beautiful friendship!
Love these guys together. I like how John added the Jerry Garcia flavour into his noodles
My 2 favorite artists singing together!!!:D
John Mayer is the Definition of a Blues Man!
King john...
Love that drummer
I need to know what magical tone device he switches on at 4:00
Beautiful!
John is a legend. I'm telling you now.
very cool... i love it !
love this song and them together
agreed!
Sweeeeet guitar duet!!!
Mayers tone at 4:17.... Holy crap!!!
he is using a marshall major instead of a two rock here. fucking weird right?!
how do you know he's using a marshall?
Darren Kanagy I almost cried
This is sick!
@jojo595901 ever since he got it he played it:P
3:55 - until the end of the song just and amazing sound!!!!!
@obga18 its hard to notice but he actually has his fender plugged in if you look at the amp left of his knees you can see the wire... i think he might of been adjusting the volume of his ear plug-ins
holy shit, amazing solo together
Genres are a crock! They are a marketing ploy. Music is Art and there are no borders or boundaries.
Awesome. Love John's solo and his interpretation of the chorus on guitar. Not digging his new look, but guess that doesn't matter. All about the Music!
I see where James Bay got his look from
Its honestly rare to see another guitarist keep up with john, especially someone whos main platform is just the guitar. Keith really shows off his chops, hes definitely on John's level, really impressive
John is fuckin' amazing.
@obga18 can you not see the rather long cable looped through the strap and then draped behind him? I've never known Mayer to go wireless. I know Clapton does and I'm pretty sure that Buddy Guy does but not Mayer.
pretty damn cool
its there but its a wireless.. the cable is plugged into this "thing" in his strap :)
CHRIS MCHUGH 5:48. Miss this guy
ShaneHurleyOFFICIAL REALLY miss this guy*
Yea i agree
So like are their shows titled "John Mayer and Keith Urban" or is it just one of their shows and the other surprises people?
@ChewyPabz this is correct.
they're such a great couple musically
@jojo595901 It's my favorite of all his many guitars! Love it!
ええ曲や~
Mayers on a entirely different level. KU can hold his own too!!
AH...MAZING......
Canada ❤🎉
I know he has that wireless "ear thingy" that lets him hear specific things like his voice or guitar.
Yeaaah monterey strat!
с 5:58 ...Джон, разве так можно круто играть?..просто улет!!!!!!! 20 раз перематывал))
Great
It seems he is using a wireless transmitter, you can see the lead.
4:09 is the moment you leave for your happy place
Who says he cant try different genres? I play guitar and i play multiple genres and if i ever get famous i dont plan on limiting myself to one style, more styles means a better player
i heard keith did a cover of this john mayer song
eargasm
well I can't imagine too many leaugues exist, so that's not surprising.
at 2:46 i thought john was picking a wedgie then i saw the cable and was like oh hes fixing his guitar lol
That's what I was saying
John back to monterey strat :-)
I did not realize how tall John Mayer was...unless Keith Urban is exceptionally short? I'm not a fan of country, but I did like this, mainly cause of John...
True bromance
That scream though 🤭
he isn't a poser... when you can play as good as him, sticking one genre gets boring after a while. it's called widening your horizons.. ever heard of it?
nope.. hes turning up his ear volume
Keith looks right at the camera at 3:02ish.
T H A N K Y O U.
@karmiquebelle
keith is pretty short
The drummer at 5:56 doe
Dhardy.... Haha so true! I love this video, it would have been stellar if only John didn't wear that hat. Great jam to end the song.
@jianwan84 Anything under 6'4'' is short.
4:03 creative..
They get so close together I thought they were gonna kiss...
This is unreal.
Keith cut John's solo too short @ the end...John was going places & he wasn't done yet...Dang!
agree, john could of easily gone on for another 3 minutes...easily one of my fav solos of his.
Wizard
There is a lot better version of this on crossroads. Check it out
thats a strange guitar choice for john to play. this song is played tuned half step down and that guitar is only used on songs that are turned standard.
John must be about 6'7 with that hat. never seen a strat look so tiny lol
i love how much taller john mayer is compared to keith urban
@aggieofcourse I'd go with guitar 'sex'.
Yeah, Strats.... Most guitars in general... Aren't really nice to us tall guys.
John's hat is epi-cute ~ And sexy.
