Yes!! Honoured to have you both perform this. Incredible job.
Love this. This song will be remembered for all time. Truly a gem of songwriting.
🥺🫶
This will go down as one of the best songs ever made.
Its awesome that you noticed it and had time to recognize it!
Even though the last lyric was missing? Brown nose boys.
Three guitarists on the stage. Two playing John Mayer signature models. The one not playing a John Mayer signature model? John Mayer.
Goated comment
Hahahahhahaha😂😂
Ibanez?
@@supson44 Mayer is playing a Jackson Soloist
@@tommynoble3428 Yeah lately he’s been playing some Japanese and usa made ones from esp,charvel and Jackson ,maybe he’s more inclined to 80s guitars after his last album
Your guitarist had to be nervous playing that solo. What a honor/ horrifying experience know your gonna be immediately followed by a Mayer solo. A+
he crushed that solo too 🔥
He crushed it but then JM killed him sadly
@@Takeiteasy11 completely agree, John literally wiped the floor with him
It's just so hard to match John's feel. He just makes everything flow. Other guitarist had some good licks, but you could tell he wasn't totally locked in comparatively.
@@jmd489 it’s not just feel, which obviously he’s the king, but something about his tone just fills so full. It’s incredible and unmatched.
Love how Alexander and his guitarist both have a PRS John Mayer signature, and John shows up with his pink Jackson - amazing cover though!
John both gave Alexander and his guitarist Silver Skys on May 3rd at the Toronto show from the Sob Rock Tour.
Exactly what I was thinking 😂
That was the first thing I noticed as well when I clicked on this video
They have a new silver sky in Roxy pink too. Wonder what his prs contact looks like. Possibly doesn't apply if he's not fronting or a guest appearance.
@@monochromedout Fender was really difficult regarding this, and that a big reason he moved away from them. I belive he can play whatever he wants now. He even plays Fenders on occation :p
First solo was solid but man Mayer’s phrasing is just on another level. Always a joy to hear John solo
John’s been using that whammy bar a lot more lately and I love it, so much emotion in that solo, his phrasing is just out of this world
Very asato-like
@@brunoerckmam5070 He's been doing that before Mateus was known. It's a Jeff Beck thing
@@samme79 yup, he's been studying the great Jeff Beck
@@brunoerckmam5070 he’s been doing the beck thing long before asato tho technically
The man has so much taste
John completed the main quest. He's just doing the side missions for fun now.
Underrated comment
I was there and the crowd SUCKED for your set but you guys crushed it!
they probably dont realize how good the band was and that John Mayer himself was there
John going from fingers to pick while manipulating the whammy at 2:58 is insane
Why is it insane?
@@leif1075try it
The moment when you’re on stage with one of the best guitarists in the world playing backup for you on a classic pop song!
No relation Mitch but you are 100% correct. John is a treasure!
Everyone playing JM signatures and he comes out with a Jackson Soloist. Love it.
When John came in with the solo, I got major chills.
john's tone here is probably one of the best guitar tones I've ever heard
I swear dude, it might even sound better than Where The Light Is
It’s up there. Even tho he typically uses a couple tube screamers in his signal chain, it sounds like he’s using distortion with a bit of chorus it sounds heavenly
Its the player dude
How can I play like him then?
@@leif1075 Practice
I just discovered these guys and this is FIREEE
John is incredible. He plays with Grateful Dead members and makes Garcia proud. He is an amazing musician
Known as Dead & Company.
That "TONE" coming from the Jackson is Incredible!! Great solo work!
it's not the guitar
@@liamjenkins244 Exactly! Even if he plays an odd Jackson you can still hear John coming through
….but I bought a Silver Sky so I could sound like John Mayer… lol
He probably has his pedal rig but who knows if he has a two rock sitting back there. Possibly not in a guest spot. But unmistakable guitar playing either way
@@eric9867
Me too! 😂
WELL DONE. Every time I hear those first chords I get chills because if done right this song WILL TEAR THE ROOF OFF THE SUCKA every time. Props to TforF for contributing THIS to the soundtrack of our lives. Alex and John and company give us one more version to luv.
There’s a WHOLE LOTTA RHYTHM goin down for sure my friend!
@@aisaiahcosey5130 I kinda meant the whole intro, sorry.
This is the kind of solos I want John to keep putting out. That was a simple but crazy good solo. Very melodic and follows the changes really well. Also you got a great voice and this was a really cool cover.
so good! alexander just announced his own tour!
Never thought this was much of a guitar song, but they made it one, and did it so tastefully.
I love seeing John using the whammy bar. This whole performance was insane. Everyone on stage knew exactly what they were doing.
Greatest duo ever
2:57, love how they do their own solos but then John goes right into the hook. Fantastic rendition.
Jesus. The way that Mayer emotes through his playing never fails to amaze me. You guys killed this!
very random thought, but i think that John Mayers style of soloing would sound amazing on a song by the 1975 especially on their second album
Y’all killed this man… My friend and I were mind-blown by what y’all did in Pittsburgh last week!! Definitely gained 2 new fans that night!
Lol 😂 everyone is playing Silver sky’s... except Mayer
sim e sim..
0:37 guitarist practicing the solo
Holy crap! JM playing a Jackson sounded amazing. It definitely shaped how he decided to play and was super cool. Incredible cover, too, absolutely on point
so incredible and honored to watch you grow. from only having dirty AF1s released when i first saw u, to touring with John Mayer, never stop doing what you’re doing! excited to see what’s next!!
John Clayton Mayer……. 1 of the GREATEST guitarists of our generation……. PERIOD.
Damn. That was … foof! Great! Bloody great!! 🎉
I remember when you only had Dirty AF1s released, now you've got another album coming soon?!? I can't wait, know its gonna be epic!!
Well this is something I had no idea I needed in my life. Y’all killed this one for real.
@@TJGWORLD honestly you’re probably right. They’re both incredibly talented and could probably make just about anything sound great.
Proud to be your 100th like on this comment. Totally agree!
I’m an old lady who loves this song so much. And you two have made this in your own version so well. Thanks indeed.
This is GOLD
Whoever you are get tf away from my UA-cam
This is the song of the human being. Of the earth, the planet and our lifestyle. If one day we make contact with aliens, this will be our anthem.
Probably Despacito though... lol
Sam Yun is a killer guitarist too. So solid from everyone!
Loving that I stumbled on this! Nostalgia to the max! And gorgeous tones on that Jackson and let's not forget that killer lead by the dude on the pink guitar right up back!
The pink guitar is John Mayer's signature guitar. It is the PRS ( Paul Reed Smith) Silver Sky, JM signature model guitar
in the shade Roxy Pink. The green guitar is John's PRS Silver Sky SE model in the shade Evergreen. My son bought a version
of the Silver Sky guitar when they first came on the market, he loves the guitar and says it is the easiest playing guitar he
ever owned. Kudos to John for designing a phenomenal guitar.
Unreal that you put an 80s Jackson shredder in John Mayer's hands it sounds like a 60s strat.
Should be released. Can I say as a John fan - it's now all about what he can give and contribute. Awesome
wow ❤❤❤
Awesome performance of one of my favorite songs from my favorite band, Tears for Fears. Thank you so much 😊
They're all using his guitar, but he's using a Jackson.
I'd like to hear Mayer sing that song, anyone agree?
CRUSHED - SLAYED - DECIMATED - KILLED - BRUALIZED - MAULED - SABOTAGED - SPANKED IT.
No ..... but seriously folks. This was palatable. It had it's moments.
I can't find words to express to your song you really are ausum and what a peaceful and beautiful songs. Really loved it from India
Very Very good!!!
Not sure who Alexander 23 is but it really sucks that they had to ruin a perfectly good cover by John Mayer. Next time you should go sit down while he plays.
Really impressed by this vocal performance 👏🏿
Anyone know what gear the dude on the pink Silver Sky is using? That was some sick tone on the solo
yo where do i get that sweater johns wearin?
Alexander how did you meet and become friends with John Mayer? Just wondering..hope you answer spme time.
What sweater is John Mayer wearing cuz that’s sum heat
Was this really only 9 months ago? Fucking John Mayer looks permanently 20 years old... haha also this was awesome!
Also, at 2:29 you sound amazing for like 5 seconds with the backup singers, but you always tend to quicken the tempo
Congrats Alexander !! I was hoping you would perform with john one day. Would've loved to see this live.
Dude the audio is amazing. Thank you!
AAHHHHHH!!!
So cool 😊
Did John almost miss the break at the end??😂
I’m so proud of how far you’ve come, but with your talent it was kind of obvious you would
ly alexander
After going to this concert in Toronto, all I can say is that seeing JM colab on this cover is so sick.
Well. That Jackson held it's own.
I watch this video like 3 times a day, everyone killed this
same i even learned the first solo, wish it was on apple music😅
I have heard it like so many times incredibly talented you all are specially you and your friend it's mind blowing a big fan of yours all the way from India..
well that blows my recording out of the water, even from the front! Thanks for the lovely surprise Alexander, you really nailed it on this tour!!
Nzinn73 Great band. Great song, although my personal fave from that album was head over heels. Great playing too.
two of my favorite people on the planet. i am SO proud of you, alexander 🤍
Wonderful cover! Glad to see you, Alexander, and your mate playing PRS Silver Sky guitars! Sort of wish John was playing his also… Mine arrived recently after 5 months of waiting 😂
Thank you, Tears For Fears. 🥺❤
3 guitars perfectly not crowding each other, and a great mix.
omg alexander 23 i’m your biggest fan 😁
You guys did a great job. Try speeding up the vocals by a quarter beat. I think that will bring the full punch TFF execute when they sing this amazing song.🤍
This is really fucking good
John did 1985 proud…only way it could have been better is if it came out in ‘83…❤
Oh John you're doing it again... What a guy
I love that they're using John's Signature PRSs
i miss johns long hair
I didn't know John Mayer played Jacksons so when I saw that broomstick of a headstock I laughed for a good while lol
this is genuinely one of my favourite videos to watch of all time, i keep coming back to it every few weeks
So jealous of every one who saw this live!!!!
See you tonight!!
I was at this show and this was the highlight of the entire night! An artist coming out before their show to play with the opener and matching the vibes of the opener. It was awesome!!
John Mayer humility right there. Doesn't try to out-shine the band, just does his thing gets into it with the band.
so this was from john's tour? i thought this was alexander's
@@sifaazh Yes John's tour, Alexander was the opener for John.
Saw y’all in Toronto amazing, when you played dirty AF1’s totally lost it.
This needs to be on spotify or some shit
Every guitarist & musician all replaying the solo where John Mayer starts playing...
Wow... that tone...
3 guys complimenting each other with stepping on each other...awesome!
Without stepping
John looked like he didn't want to stop playing at the end.
Saw this live!! It was awesome af for John to come out and play with you guys. Y’all killed the whole set tho!
so good!! alexander just announced his own tour which is awesome !
Just goes to show you tone is all in the hands and fingers. John Mayer makes that 80s metal shred guitar sound like a Strat! Wonderful vocals by Alex 23 - what a soulful voice he's got! I love how they rearranged the middle section so that the original solo was the final one. Amazing job by elite musicians, and a true band effort.
I feel like John Mayer is just using the guitar to flirt at this point.
The pink jackson super strat goes hard though
two of my all time favorite people. so forever proud of you alexander this is huge
CRAZY!!! so insanely proud of you alexander
i grew up on rap learned to love other music like death metal, country, classic rock and everything in between but if anyone asks what my favorite song is i always tell them everybody wants to rule the world by tears for fears
It was so awesome to you see you guys and JM in this Sob Rock Tour. Where my UBS Arena people at?!
This is so good!
I really thought John was gonna sing with him😭 good cover, but like aaahhhhhh
I’ve watched this more times than I can count. Something extraordinary happened here. The way Alex phrases is magical, the first solo is perfection and the tone on John’s guitar is otherworldly. Thank you to whoever filmed this.
so good! alexander just announced his own tour!
