  • Unreleased John Mayer song. Sorry about the bad sound quality.. I found it on the internet.
    LYRICS:
    I saw you sleeping on the couch tonight
    You know it serves you right
    Makes you luckier than I
    All the colors in the room have changed
    The painting yesterday
    Brother, I've discovered you
    We're pushing on
    We're passing through
    And it won't be long until I walk with you
    Tonight I'm down, I'm inside out
    Staring at the pictures in the album you forgot about
    Isn't it a shame?
    Times have changed
    But isn't it strange?
    Lifelines stay the same, the same
    We're never where we wanna be
    That's ok with me
    "It's just the way it is" we say
    It feels like make believe
    But you're my history
    Brother, I've rediscovered you
    We're pushing on
    We're passing through
    And it won't be long until I walk with you
    Tonight I'm down, I'm inside out
    Staring at the pictures in the album you forgot about
    Isn't it a shame?
    Times have changed
    But isn't it strange?
    Lifelines stay the same
    Round and round
    Can't believe my heart is waiting this long
    All along we've been children
    In a cold world where wonder was lost everyday
    If love was a compass
    Oh, I've lost my way

    "My name is John and I'm here to play some music for you, and sing some words over that music."

    How could you even carry on "small talk" during this genius... These people didn't understand what they were eating their steak to.

    This is actually the kind of sound i was hoping he'd go for in his next album. Keep that soulful vibe he had in continuum, but still with a pop sensibility.
    I vote this one to be on the new album! Anyone else?

    Its just so frustrating to know that this guy actually composed and played this song live in bars when he was what? 20? 21? And remember that this is just a random recording at some random bar,, he can play like this anywhere, anytime and even back then 100% perfection.

    Born and Raised has some phenomenal songs... Some of his best writing.

    i think it's important for a musician to be ever evolving. it's important for any old person, but certainly someone in the limelight. i'm willing to follow John Mayer where ever he goes musically. His music is to personal to forget and to fucking awesome to not be loved.

  • @krigatuso
    @krigatuso 11 років тому +5

    Agreed. Jm unplugged - what could be better? I also love it when he picks other people's random songs and does them a billion times better - always.

  • @Sevenernine
    @Sevenernine 16 років тому +3

    God, I used to listen to this song all the time.
    Haven't heard it in like three years.
    One of the hardest on guitar, out of Mayer's songs... at least for a 'strummer' like myself.

    I think we all know that John is going to leave the Born and Raised phase, but the real question is where is he going? He hasn't stayed fixated on one musical style for more than one album yet. With his current stance he might do more acoustic stuff but I don't think like Room for Squares. It'll be interesting though.

    John used to really love those major 9 chords.

  • @laughingparadox
    @laughingparadox 12 років тому +3

    I love this song. The breakdown at the end, and when he kind of hums/scats a melody around 4: 28 is my favorite part. This is the John Mayer I love. Sucker. No Such Thing (acoustic version from Inside Wants Out, Room For Squares version was awful in comparison), Why Georgia, St. Patrick's Day.. incredible music. The only song after that that felt like old John, to me, was Daughters. I wish he'd go back to his roots and play music like this. It was beautiful.

  • @Ibanezguy2007
    @Ibanezguy2007 11 років тому +5

    Love the MJ-like chords in this! Can hear the influence and it's so good...Needs to just release a B-sides album, of just him and a guitar...nothing else.

  • @bethahop
    @bethahop 13 років тому

    i love this song. one of my all-time favorites. (which, of course, means i never get to hear him play it live). so thank you, thank you, thank you.

  • @crushme41dmb
    @crushme41dmb 16 років тому +9

    Such a good song. At the berklee workshop, he pulled this song out to show how he had to write his acoustic songs with a moving bass line. So creative. Very Charlie Hunter'ish look on guitar playing.

  • @ajfanchristine

    @missprissm. He says "can I have a little less vocal in the monitor, I can tell already" telling the sound guy to lower the volume of his vocal mic so he can hear the guitar better

    @marron93 Yepp, He got that Granuloma on his Pharynx, or was it his Larynx? It was either his throat or his actual Voice Box, which would be Larynx. All "ynx's" aside, it sucks huge Scrotum that hes MIA right now. I was so hyped to have the album come out in October; I saw him & Keith Urban at the Tiger Jam in April & that ruled so I was so excited! Now I'm just bummed that he's on IR haha; but I could totally hear the development of it, really sad. Oh well, Born & Raised will be all the better!

    So I figured out how to play this, including some of the improv but I'd kinda like to make it my own. Does anyone with a little more jazz theory know what kind of scales/arpeggios He's using to improv? Thanks

    @eWilliamCardenas how could you say he uses autotune when, he sounds the same singing into a video camera, autotune is an effect procesor to correct pitch, check out some vids where he is singing with out a microphone and it will sound the same. no autotune
