- 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."
If only it were that easy!!
How could you even carry on "small talk" during this genius... These people didn't understand what they were eating their steak to.
Tip345 I know right? I'm always amazed that they don't recognize what they are hearing is special
Indeed.
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.
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.
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.
That is fantastic...
Zartimus I like where this is going....
Hah.. Just uploading the tutorial now.
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.
Geemoney1022 what do you think now
he definitely left born and raised behind 😂
sob rock is as different as it gets
2020 is a blessed year all because of him.
John used to really love those major 9 chords.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Never heard this before. What a beautiful song! But everything JM writes is beautiful, n'est-ce pas? Thanks for sharing this StopThisTrain!
Damn...he was so NICEEEEEEEEEEEE!
He need to release this stuff.
thanks so much for posting! had this track forever ago, hard to find again
That guitar playing at the end definitely gives me neon vibes
I would marry both him and his music. I wouldn't doubt for a second:) The greatest musician alive!
thanks for posting this one up! I am LOVING this song! Ugh, when is Battle Studies coming out?! I'm dying! haha. Been spending too much money to go to every show, appearance and what not he's been in for the past two years in LA! My wallet hurts.
GREAT SONG!! My favorite Mayer song
haha. agreed! I'm so glad that someone who has REAL talent is so popular =] I never get tired of him
love the scatting...it's only 9:21, but it feels like 1 o'clock in the morning. Only a few artists can make me feel that way
wow, new JM favorite song for sure, I have to learn how to play that
The 40 watt club in Athens, Georgia (U of Ga.) when it was still open.
I'd definitely vote for it - but I wouldn't bet on it. It's an older song of his. Back during his Eddie's Attic days...
One of my favorites ever though
One of my favorite songs ever
great intro, great tune! go john!
wow it's really good, i think I had never heard this before.
Now this is the John I know and love... Does anybody know when his new album is going to come out?
You are so right!
4:00 sounds like the solo of neon from where the light is.
@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
mayer with a classical guitar?! sounds awesomeeee
great songwriter...
@wiseoldfish it was meant to be out at the end of October but got delayed. ive heard it's out some time next year :/
BOSSA NOVA
reminds me "neon", great song.
shame it wasnt released
id love it if he wrote songs like this now
what a great song!
i agree with kujofox... it's very jazz influenced!
omg, mine too!! :D i love them both! :D
crazy how many people aren't paying attention
@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!
@mayerfan93 This is probably not at eddies attic, I have been there numerous time and peple dont talk during performances. Its the house rules.
Verryy Jazzyy. I love it! :)
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
@@fm111. ?????????????
@mayerfan93 ohmygosh I totally agree with that. stupid unreleased songs. they should all be out so mayer fans can have them.
A lot of John's acoustic songs are surely influenced by brazilian bossa nova guitar style! And this is nice!
❤️❤️❤️🥰🎶
CHRIS!
@dougsusername really? Never heard him, maybe I shoul check it out
This song is baller as fuck.
yes crazy chords
this really remembers Brasilian bossa nova
@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
I wanna see john play this live ._.
When was this recorded? Does anyone know for sure?
why isnt this song on one of his albums....
This is john
i like him
@MrShiningbubblegum You should listen to Bossa Nova then... One kind of Brazilian music...
The phrasing in the chorus is similar to "The Hurt"
first song he ever wrote (well co-wrote)
omggg. I wanna marry him! Wait no. I don't wanna marry John Mayer. I wanna marry his music! If only that were humanly possible T_T
Please explain in detail....
I wish he'd get out of the media and concentrate on churning out more music. I mean, it's his life, but an album would balance things out, I think.
@missprissm a little less vocal in the monitor... i can tell all ready ( i believe)
what kind of martin is he using?
omg the solo after 3:26.. :O
I hate how he has so many songs like this that are good and are not on his albums. And I can't listen to them on my ipod :(
@lucascopin No he just really really really likes Charlie Hunter.
Man, thats exactly what am sayin......... John Mayer needs to go back to his old roots.
Better than anything on Battle Studies.
I know its 10 years late, but edge of desire is just as good
assassin is awesome
I desperately NEED this song in a decent quality, for fuck's sake !! what can one do to make John record this in a studio or smthg !! i don't even know how to make a song's quality better, anyone of u guys has a clue how to do that?
oh btw, seems like this is an unreleased song from 1999.... :)
@1979saxman go to tryjm.com there's full shows from 1999 and 2000. awesome stuff.
@Ccbroo true
this music is so brazillian.. like djavan for example.
@surfer1211 legit assessment
"youtube to mp3"
ur right, there's a clearer version of this that's been recorded there, but the quality's still pretty shitty :/
0:20
God, why don't people stop talking!! Show some decency!!!
CAZUZA might have influenced him.
@davidach I want to marry this comment!
born and raised songs are shit compared to this unreleased masterpiece...just saying.
