"Don't know how else to say it, don't want to see my parents go One generation's length away From fighting life out on my own" Straight through me, relevant for me. Beautiful.
Who else writes like this!!!???!! Nobody!!!! Such a beautiful song! Beautifully performed with emotion and realism…. John.. you are awesome 👏 and what am awesome musician ❤️
I think if i had to pick, this would be the most perfect performance of this song, I mean he has plenty of other good ones but for this one its like that day he had been thinking about everything he's singing about
Had a talk with my old man, said help me understand... he said turn 68 you'll re-nigotiate somethin something don't stop this train, don't for a minute change the place ur in!
No, I'm not color blind I know the world is black and white I try to keep an open mind But I just can't sleep on this, tonight Stop this train I want to get off and go home again I can't take the speed it's moving in I know I can't But, honestly, won't someone stop this train? Don't know how else to say it I don't want to see my parents go One generation's length away From fighting life out on my own Stop this train I want to get off and go home again I can't take the speed it's moving in I know I can't But, honestly, won't someone stop this train? So scared of getting older I'm only good at being young and dumb So I play the numbers game To find a way to say that life has just begun but the game is done Had a talk with my old man Said, "Help me understand" He said, "Turn sixty-eight You'll renegotiate" "Don't stop this train Don't for a minute change the place you're in And don't think I couldn't ever understand I tried my hand John, honestly, we'll never stop this train" Once in a while, when it's good It'll feel like it should And they're all still around And you're still safe and sound And you don't miss a thing 'Till you cry when you're driving away in the dark Just singing, stop this train I want to get off and go home again I can't take the speed this thing is moving in I know, I can't 'Cause now I see I'll never stop this train I never gonna stop this train Never gonna stop this train
I don't know what he did or who told him to do it, but this gig was the first one for me where he apparently had 'seen the light' on his singing. Incredible, totally in control and clean as a whistle.
@jakesishful You can kind of do it anyway you want, his way is kind of odd. I use every finger but my pinky so I can do chordal hits on the top two strings in addiction to the rake/hit.
Mayer has stated multiple Times on Iivestreams That he hates it and hasn’t actually used it except for the very beginning, so late 90s. But then again everyone used it back then lol.
Stop this train is one of those special songs why I learned to play the guitar. I've covered it now and I'm working on more songs. I would be very grateful if you could check out my cover and if you want to leave a comment of what you think of it. If you have any suggestions for me to cover any other songs of John Mayer or another artist., feel free to send me a message:) I will appreciate it!

Not many can whistle that well. Impressive.
No one can bruh
He Truly is a Legend
prefer his whistling in this version to where the light is personally
I don’t think I have ever heard a song, which I felt was written exactly for me, for the way I feel now... tears
Who else writes like this!!!???!! Nobody!!!! Such a beautiful song! Beautifully performed with emotion and realism…. John.. you are awesome 👏 and what am awesome musician ❤️
This is a Martin OM-28 John Mayer Signature Limited Edition. Only 404 guitars like this exist worldwide. :)
Kostas1601 that must be why they can't be found
I got #400 still am shock about me owning this gem 💎
Mayer has 2 of them and I am fairly certain that DRH has1 too.
404 is a reference to an area code here in Atlanta
4:13 I can’t take the speed😍
I can't even do the whistling...I love so much to hate your talent, John!
This is the BEST video to study his playing technique for this and a few other songs. He is great!
is so difficult to accept that the train keeps movin
this guy is good. does he do weddings?
He'll do your daughters!
Robert Casipe haha this made me laugh😂
@@robertcasipe1851 they won't definitely stop his train! 🤣
@@keithe1023 he deleted it what did Robert write, ik it's been 1 year but still 😂
😄
Omg this is amazing the variations from the original make this even more amazing !!!! His voice is a bloody gift !!!!
I like the faces he is making while singing this. LMAO
One of my favourite performances of "stop this train"..
Awesome. Best live version I've heard. Beautiful.
This is not a song... It's a feeling❤
So scared of gettin older, im only good at bein young... my favorite lyrics ever. From my favorite song sung by my favorite artist!
Since he release the where the light is album, his vocal ability were outstanding!! flawless.. now he is a full package recording artist..
Revisiting from years ago. Speechless still
I always get teary eyes whenever i hear this song
Love the song but his facial expressions are hilarious!! 😂
Shallow reply ...better than having a load of tits and bums in the name of popular music thrown in your face...tits and bums without soul....
its the coke man
Beautiful,beautiful song 😊
This is beautiful
This is the best version by far of this song.
damn right he's a god !!
uma das melhores apresentações dele! c eh loko!!🔥🤤👏🏻🙌🏻
John is love.
I'm crying, this song is a pure gift
I love this song. You just can't stop this train. Live your life and.enjoy!
2021 💓
🙃 Anyone?
Pure talent.
Woah his whistling sounds better than a harmonica!
that's some bad ass whistling
I think if i had to pick, this would be the most perfect performance of this song, I mean he has plenty of other good ones but for this one its like that day he had been thinking about everything he's singing about
best version in my opinion. best thing from where the light is: "Neon"
Great version. Nice to see how he is REALLY picking. Sorry to all you hacks that think you have it right here on UA-cam. John is so incredible. WOW!
i like how quiet it got as soon as he started playing. amazing song to.
Had a talk with my old man, said help me understand... he said turn 68 you'll re-nigotiate somethin something don't stop this train, don't for a minute change the place ur in!
No, I'm not color blind
I know the world is black and white
I try to keep an open mind
But I just can't sleep on this, tonight
Stop this train
I want to get off and go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But, honestly, won't someone stop this train?
Don't know how else to say it
I don't want to see my parents go
One generation's length away
From fighting life out on my own
Stop this train
I want to get off and go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But, honestly, won't someone stop this train?
So scared of getting older
I'm only good at being young and dumb
So I play the numbers game
To find a way to say that life has just begun but the game is done
Had a talk with my old man
Said, "Help me understand"
He said, "Turn sixty-eight
You'll renegotiate"
"Don't stop this train
Don't for a minute change the place you're in
And don't think I couldn't ever understand
I tried my hand
John, honestly, we'll never stop this train"
Once in a while, when it's good
It'll feel like it should
And they're all still around
And you're still safe and sound
And you don't miss a thing
'Till you cry when you're driving away in the dark
Just singing, stop this train
I want to get off and go home again
I can't take the speed this thing is moving in
I know, I can't
'Cause now I see I'll never stop this train
I never gonna stop this train
Never gonna stop this train
Love.
Goosebumps ❤️
Once in a while, when it's good, it'll feel like it should
O_O whistling! wow!
love this song
this whole concert seems like a test concert for where the light is
I don't know what he did or who told him to do it, but this gig was the first one for me where he apparently had 'seen the light' on his singing. Incredible, totally in control and clean as a whistle.
0:10 lol
Lmaoooo
Where is the guy who usually post the lyrics 😩
lolo z He's here, just a bit below.
Lol you guys make me laugh
Unreal
Thanks John
@jakesishful You can kind of do it anyway you want, his way is kind of odd. I use every finger but my pinky so I can do chordal hits on the top two strings in addiction to the rake/hit.
John, you can't stop this TRAIN . . . time goes on . . . & on &n in perpetuity........
Crying 😢
WOW JOHN STOLED THE HAMBURGALERS SHIRT RIGHT OFF HIS BACK WTF
love his whistling lol
11 years ago wow
A live legendary man😉
I love what he does with his bottom lip when he sings :)
Any tutorial for this songs are always so different then the way he plays it.
haha right? I've seen him like 5 times just cuz I bought tickets
3:21-3:35 ...so many feels.....
0:12
I Love you Bro! thanks for posting!
Damn an 11 year old comment
I'm guessing the carpet is there to eliminate any slippage of his equipment.
diggin his shirt
Martin OM-28JM
I heard excesive pitch correction. But still an amazing version. What a good song
Mayer has stated multiple Times on Iivestreams That he hates it and hasn’t actually used it except for the very beginning, so late 90s.
But then again everyone used it back then lol.
Yeah, it's probably a live auto tune plug in running through the mic channel. He's been using auto tune in his recent studio works too
@@viktorceder4985 yeah but sometimes shows put it on later without asking
@GrootveldMusic this was in 2007 i think at austin city limits.
2 people tried to stop the train but they got run over by it instead. In other news, that was a very good whistling solo
wonderful
3:27
MAMMA MIA.
forever so fucking beautiful
i prefer the whisling in this one
God hes great

Beau Roelofsma great work there! Aspiring to get there.

@ztbsk8er Thank you, I also play it with my index and thumb, but some tutorials explain you also need to use your middle.
He knows de wae
The train knows de wae
I’m watching this just to hear him whistle
@psvth3b3st Just the index and thumb.
When was this recorded?
He only uses his index and thumb or also his middle?
how do you find this on mp3ify.com....i already put john mayer - stop this train and stop this train.
@bobmcspan except hes making a lot of (great) sound
is it the same year of Where The Light Is?
Tomás Valladares I believe this was a few months before where the light is
wow those lips can do anything -- even whistle! hehe
nice quality vid
@yannis5 Does that include buying a ticket?
after or before where the light is?
i know this is a late reply but i think its after. nothing tops his where the light performance tho. hope this helps
@@omarakmal9820 thanks man! 8 years, holy cow hahaha internet gives us some surprises
@@edguilherme2 it truly does
