Your slackin for not already knowing it
@@ersofrescht4661 saaaaammmeee
This guy is the business. Classic oldies vibe in modern times....legit!
Agree
fell in love with song, it's so good to listen to this while doing assignments and research papers.
If your still listening to this,
Good for you.
After the Temptations, I didn't think that anyone could ever use this phrase as a song title again, but true talent and rock and roll and soul never die and shine on.
I heard this in 2012....a 14 year old kid with no experiences in life.
I'm here now in 2022...I've been thru so much I just want it to rain
This!
Now this is someone who grew up on oldies 🙌🎵🎶
Arise 909 yuuuup got that right
He’s so underrated I love his music keep going don’t stop we need a breath of fresh air like this.
I love his music smi with more people knew him
Crazy this is 14 years old
Well I wish that it would rain
Heavy rain down from the sky
Maybe then you wouldn’t see the teardrops in my eyes
Well I wish that it would rain
It would be a great disguise
Maybe then you wouldn’t see the teardrops in my eyes
And all of the raindrops that fall down on my face
Erase all the memories of you and your embrace
I’ll long for the moment that I lose this bitter taste
And I don’t want you to see me this way
Well I wish that it would rain
Heavy rain down from the sky
Oooh maybe then I wouldn’t see you walking right on by
Well I wish that it would rain
Let it storm just for awhile
Oohh yeah maybe then you wouldn’t see this sadness in my smile
Ooh noo and all of the raindrops that fall down on my face
Erase all the memories of you and your embrace
I’ll long for the moment that I lose this bitter taste
And I don’t want you to see me this way
Rain down rain down [x2]
Rain down rain down on me
[Repeat]
I'm happily married, not even heart broken, but I still feel this song.
This guy can sing beautifully, I love his soft but strong voice and how it brings back the old R & B style that many of us miss now a days. Great job Mayer and please don't stop creating these great tunes.
Yes yes. "That old R& B style that many if us miss now a days" Do I ever! Beautiful music with heart & soul for
all ppl.( Instead of constant yelling and diss tracks about who can be the biggest poser ala Rick Ross)
I feel like Mayer's interpretation focuses a lot on the reflection. When you're looking back on a relationship that really affected you, it's hard not to be nostalgic, even if it was a bit horrible. The bittersweet memories.
i love mayer hawthorne!!! am i the only one that finds him amazing?? i want to keep hearing more and more and more!!!!!
This song is beautiful. Mayer did his thing. It has that old school 70's feel. Much success to Mr. Hawthorne.
Now THIS is real music. REAL talent. God bless this mans soul! Can anybody feel me?! This is what the world needs...
Grace & Frankie brought me here! Thank God! Wouldn’t want to miss this!!
GRACE & FRANKIE brought me here!
Guerita Triste same!
The season ending was like ??? Cliffhanger wasn't it ? I hope they get their house back or a better one on the beach maybe with less stairs.
IKR!! I understood their kids intentions, but I wouldn't want to live out the rest of my days in some nursing home. I'd wanna go peacefully in my own home!
Guerita Triste same!!!
Guerita Triste Their music selection throughout the seasons has been absolutely amazing!
I'm so glad this video was playing randomly on MTV one day, I would of never found him and fell in love with his music.
his talent deserve better ! i'm glad people still listened to him because he has such a unique style.
I just found out about Mayer Hawthorne and am so happy I did. Literally EVERY song is amazing. Love this guy. Only suggestion I would have is more horns haha I miss horns so much in music. Still great stuff!
Check out Charles bradly, Nathaniel ratliff, st. Paul and the broken bones, Leon bridges . newer artists with would and lots of horns
I love this song.
I GOT TO GIVE IT UP TO MAYER HAWTHORNE .STRAIGHT UP G" MUSIC.
This guy is so dope. Love the classic soul sound that he has.
Never heard of this guy till I watched Grace and Frankie and heard it at the end credits. Had to hear more
My son Zadil shared this with me couple of years ago, still a good song!
just cried to this
Same
The best underrated singer of all time!
nice twist on a swing of the Stylistics & Temptations. Great market for this white guy, need to bring back R&B.
I wish it would rain... HMMM... Seems a little too much like the temptations doesnt it?
He Has A Beautiful style things Have Changed Thrue the Years, this Is Where Its At..... nice...
@@kaileegirl1785 No
@@kaileegirl1785 Yeah, he admits that he originally made these tunes as copies of classic tunes. He wrote new lyrics and vocal melodies so that he could legally DJ with tunes he grew up loving. Still incredible material but yes the instrumental tracks are basically exact copies of other songs. Good ear!
Aaron Frazer has continued what Mayer and Raphael started 15 years ago. 70’s soul was and remains the best
"I long for the moment that I lose this bitter taste,
and I dont want you to see me this way"
damn that hits home..
I still listen to a lot of oldies and this brother gots that oldie vibe his music is pretty smooth...He’s got Soul for sure...
my dad just love this song...and I love him singing it...r.I.p.forever Brady Bland
Been looking for this song for so many years!!!! I’m so happy right now! 2024 with it. Heard this song on MTV U when I was like 14 I’m 28 now
This song is from 11 yrs ago? I discovered this artist today, and I’m happy! 70s vibes ♥️
Ever since I first heard The Moments sing "Sunday", i always wanted to sing this way. This boy is good like a wizard!
I listen to this repeat all day and it never gets old
A great thing here,Mayer pays tribute, and brings back the ole' Motown riffs, and hooks,updating them,but not changing them too much,without ruining them.Remember,if Mayer,and others don't keep this "sound", and "era" alive,it will be dead all together.In music,each group,learns from the other.Roger Troutman,T-Pain,Usher,and others use "Talk-Box" today,perfected by Peter Frampton in 70's,and Rap groups all sample hooks and riffs from 80s New Wave Bands today,or remake their classics-Nice.
His voice is so soulful. Love this song.
I saw him perform this yearrrrs ago and it started raining in the middle of the song, epic AF
he got soul...fa real..
Today was a good day cuz I found his music! He is great!!!
Old-school Soul.
The love of great music and talent brought me here. Mayer is awesome .
Haven't listened to Mayer Hawthorne in a while..so glad I re-listened. So good.
such a under rated song its really good
Bless Grace & Frankie for this amazing song!
I remember when I first heard this !!!! I was like this BOY IS BAD !!! I want to cover this
In 20 years someone's gonna sample this and make some hot hip hop music
+Eric Jaacobi ...This is a remake.
+Melissa Wade I'm aware
What exactly do you two think this is a remake of? The temptations have a song with the same title, but this is absolutely not the same song
Brexton Higgs they have no idea what they think it's a remake of. 😂
@@BPHiggs-jm8zd Real talk.
Yes mayer bring back the R&B music that we miss no one today knows how to make this kind of music today
+mj jones Joss Stone does pretty good
Durand Jones and The Indications are pretty solid too!
This right here is that good ol' music, that temptations soulfulness. I am really loving this guy.
I love this song I could definitely feel the vibe
Mayer thank you for sharing a beautiful song. I had days tears stream down my face only if raindrops erase memories of love now gone would be easier to move on.
I sooooooo love this old school sound. He got the Stylistics and Delfonics sound. He get so many cool points for this track. Love his sound. My generation don't really have this kind of mellow vibe goin on, they rather focus on screwing and make'n money and get'n high.
Grace and Frankie introduced me to this song. 🙈💜💜💜
Voice like Paul Desmond's sax, gentle and soft but still full of power
Love his songs and his voice.
This brings me back
I used to always play this on Grooveshark. Reminds me of my days in San Jose, California.
_⛰️🙊💛_
One of the few good artists of this decade.
Grace & Frankie brought me here! 😍😍😍
Me too. xx
This guy has mad talent. Great song
I listened to this song about 50 times while clinging to a cheap air mattress in Tijuana. Hepatitis A + Mayer Hawthorne = memories

i hate when people remake songs sometimes but i love how he made his own amazing voice
I absolutely love this version...

Quality Chicano music, I only just found about this geeza now. Crazy he's so talented, I need to find if this guy is going to be on tour.

I think I love you or something.. great song.. flashback to the 70s
Haha he filmed this right by my house, so tight! My homies uncle owns the shop their sitting at as well- larchmont wine and cheese!representing hp real hard in this video!
Not that this isn't a good song in its own right, but I do agree with whoever said that this is an artistic rendition of the Temptations song. I would be absolutely shocked if Hawthorne didn't know the Temptations song. I think he heard the Temptations song and in one way or another, consciously or subconsciously, was like "that's a great song. I can relate to that, but I wanna put it in a different context and make it my own" maybe because the Temps song is too cheerful sounding or some other reason, who knows.
The music, very different. Same key, but different tempo, feel, vocal delivery, yes. very much different. Outside of them falling under the huge umbrella of "Soul music", there aren't too many similarities between these two songs that wouldn't be shared by any other two soul songs (they both have background vocals, they both have drums and bass and etc etc)
But if you cannot see at all how these lyrics are at least similar, if you think that the only thing in common between the lyrical matter of the two songs is their title, then I don't think you understand English.
TEMPS: "My eyes search the skies, desperately for rain.
'Cause raindrops will hide my teardrops.
And no one will ever know.
That I'm cryin'... cryin' when I go outside."
"I need rain to disguise the tears in my eyes."
HAWTHORNE: "Well I wish that it would rain
Heavy rain down from the sky
Maybe then you wouldn’t see the teardrops in my eyes"
"Well I wish that it would rain
It would be a great disguise
Maybe then you wouldn’t see the teardrops in my eyes "
They tell the same story: I wish it would rain so that raindrops would fall on my face and if the girl I love that I can't have or anyone else sees me, they won't be able to tell the difference between my tears and the raindrops on my cheeks because I'M SAD. That's it.
It's the difference between saying "I got abducted by aliens last night" and "Last night, some aliens took me, by force, into their ship". If you think those statements are essentially different, than you might think the lyrics in these two songs also share no similarity.
You know, who said "the" first?
GRACE and FRANKIE brought me here!!!! And I LOVE the song!!!
what a classic!! i just found out about him today, and i have enjoyed everyone of his songs!!! who'da thought a guy who looked like a chem teacher would make such great music. LOL!! and i mean REAL MUSIC!! i could listen to him all day.
