im a massive Springsteen fan, the greatest and most relevant rocker the world has ever seen but this is simply brilliant version of one of Bruce's greatest hits.!! Love it
Fer Ramirez I think Stefan misinterpreted your question. He must have thought you meant “why, is Bold as Love on Spotify?” If not, that dude must just have pointed it out for the sake of it. Sharing some expert knowledge, perhaps.
Ya know, it makes me laugh and sad at the same time, how so many have forgotten what life is about at all...I spent the last two yrs in serving in Afghanistan where the only sounds that brought peace to any of our souls, was music. I bet with everything I am that if The Boss and John Mayer sat down together discussing this remake, The Boss would be honored and proud knowing someone with such incredible talent as John Mayer who has touched the lives of millions, as did The Boss, wanted to take
First of all thank you for your service and I appreciate you! Second, your right music is that stillness and calmness where you dont really get anywhere else.
such a beautiful song and add their own light and special touch to it!! Remakes from talented, true, unique and real platinum recording artists are something to be embraced and felt...thats all!! John Mayer isn't taking credit for the song, he simply took an original classic from one of the greatest musical artists and Americans of our time, whom he was prolly inspired by as a child, and played it from his heart n made it "his own". Music is created to hear n heal the soul..not to be critiqued
oooooooooooh interesting. i still think Bruce's version is my favorite. it's dripping with sex. however, this has almost more longing and earnestness, and i find that interesting.
Because believe me, whether you may or may not like a particular song...it may be the last peaceful thing to ever go through a soldiers heart n soul!! And in the world we live in nowadays, believe me as well when I say that the last thing we ever need to be arguing or fighting about....IS MUSIC!!!! God bless the United States and all of the men and women that have and continue to give their lives defending Her!!!! "May music heal the hearts of everyone"!!
The Boss sings "skull," not "soul." He probably wrote it that way because it's a more vivid image and a better rhyme with "dull." However it may appear on some lyric sheets, if you check out other performances, Bruce sings skull, as John has noticed as well.
Mayer does sound like a teenage boy in this song but that's not necessarily a bad thing. I think this version suits him/his personality. Mayer's got nice vocal and executed it very well which gives a different interpretation of the song. This cover might not, ahem, make me blush like Bruce's does but it did put a smile on my face. Some might prefer Bruce's or Johnny Cash but hey this cover is obviously not trash.
Hey little girl is your daddy home Did he go away and leave you all alone I got a bad desire Oh, oh, oh, I'm on fire Tell me now pretty baby is he good to you Can he do to you the things that I do I can take you higher Oh, oh, oh, I'm on fire OH oh oh im on fire It's like someone took a knife Edgy and dull and cut a six-inch valley Through the middle of my skull At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet And a freight train running through the middle of my head Only you can cool my desire Oh, oh, oh I'm on fire Oh, oh, oh I'm on fire Hey little girl is your daddy home Did he go away and leave you all alone I got a bad desire Oh, oh, oh I'm on fire Tell me now baby is he good to you Can he do to you the things that I do I can take you higher Oh, oh, oh I'm on fire I'm on fire I'm on fire I'm on fire Read more: John Mayer - I'm On Fire Lyrics | MetroLyrics
Amen @SuperSkip28. John Mayer is amazing. He has qualities that majority of musicians today dont have.. He has soul and his music has meaning. Other than most who talk about booty calls, sex sex sex, and money. John mayer is a fucking legend!!
+Rut Enheim there is no better version. This is just a song, it is just music. Not really sure how one can say this is better. Good or bad? Better or worse? These are based on preference. That goes for any song.
You're so right man. In music you may feel discouraged because of someone else's skill level, but it's never been a competition. The only barometer of "good" versus "bad" would be record sales, which is meaningless anyway.
No. Good is something you feel with your heart. Bad covers leave you cold , sometimes just sad or even a little angry. I feel the original version with all my being, let's leave it there.
You ever fall in love with someone your not supposed to then they fall in love with you back and realize they can’t handle all the lying and guilt so you have to stop because you love them but you wonder how they could have ever let you go knowing that there was so much more left to do together. Then you realize it’s been months and almost a year now and we have talked and she won’t answer back and I’m still completely in love and she is still married.
A couple more observations; the war drum sounds interesting, but gives an originally slow song a slightly rushed feel, and also can't tell if he keeps plucking or not, sounds like he switches to strumming, or he is just plucking really softly. I guess if he gets even one jaded younger person to like this awesome song, then it's an A+ for John : )
Glad to see someone agrees. I respect John Mayer, but this cover can't even begin to compare to the feeling that Springsteen conveys in the original. It's so poppy in this version.
@LauraEvon I don't understand how people get so upset over someones opinion on something. It's how they feel towards a subject. Not yours. As long as they don't push that opinion on you, it's fine. I think his voice is good, but not for this song. Thank you for being understanding:)
Would just like to refer to an earlier comment (Mary Rodgers), if you listen closely in the original, Bruce does actually say skull. Well, that's how I hear it anyway, but I could aways be wrong.
just because someone has a different opinion than you and even if there opinion wasn't needed, doesn't mean you have the right to tell someone to kill themselves, even if you are joking, nobody should ever be told to do that people take things more seriously than you could ever know.
Can’t believe I’ve been a Mayer fan for so long and never heard this song! Damn you Mayer for releasing this on iTunes only!!!
Lo que sucede con esta cancion es que es exclusiva de apple es un cover de bruce springhthing
Springsteen perdon por mi escritura😊 saludos
Lol fake fan
@@DeanH92 I’ve just never had an iTunes account I’m sorry 😢
@@CorruptControl poser 😎
I just remembered this after years of not having heard it. It's so good to be back. What a masterful cover.
I’m a huge mayer fan and just stumbled upon this gem
Me too i saw a video of him playing at concert these days
Tell me why you consider yourself a huge Mayer fan
Likewise, what a great find. I didn't even know this was a Springsteen song. Everything John does is gold!
Andrew Loftus tell me why you consider yourself a huge fan
I can't stop smiling discovering this for the first time after all these years as well
This song is just perfect for johns soothing voice and guitar playing
This kind of "John Mayer covers" are SOOO GREAT, this man is Amazing at what he does.
Thank you John.
Keep covering!!!
i wish this song was longer. it makes me feel.
Seks
Horny?
Exactly,this song is too short,it feels like you can listen to this song for a lifetime...
Grow up the both of you.
im a massive Springsteen fan, the greatest and most relevant rocker the world has ever seen but this is simply brilliant version of one of Bruce's greatest hits.!! Love it
A massive pedo like all leftards.

I remember one person saying once that music loses all art when music becomes a competition. I like both versions of this song alot
steve jordan on the brushes is always so good
Steve Jordan doing anything on the drums is always good 😆

This song hits different especially in winter
Agreed! John's rendition is beautiful, melodic, and evokes such powerful sentiment.
And in rains
@@adwaitsharma3188 fr
It actually sounds like gentle soothing rain
I love your guitar, and your sultry voice... You give me chills and seriously you almost whispering close to my ear... Heavenly
Another great version of this masterpiece. A lot of artists have a lot to thank Bruce for.
Tell me that second verse after the first chorus doesn't make you feel amazing
Yo UA is so dope!!!
AMAZING! I have been a JM fan for years and this just makes me love him even more. My favorite version of the song by far
This really needs to be on Spotify.
There's only one person in the world I wish who'd read this. My favorite moment in life happened while this was playing.
May i ask who, sir?
This song is so underrated🤦🏻♂️🤯💯
It’s one of Bruce’s best songs . Everyone knows it .
The guitar play resembles a lil bit like it's a Simon & Garfunkel song
yes
YES IT DOES! I thought the exact same thing. Or Mumford and Sons.
+Joshua Outlaw they did a cover of this song, it's great.
You guys do know this is a Bruce Springsteen song right... John Mayer is such a talent and with a masterpiece of a song like this... it's awesome...
It sounds like The boxer.

oooooooooooh interesting. i still think Bruce's version is my favorite. it's dripping with sex. however, this has almost more longing and earnestness, and i find that interesting.
That's the interesting thing about the covers, that they all have a different feel than the original.
He makes me love this song even more.
i love all the covers of this song! :) it's such a classic. john did a decent job here
Dang, “decent” seems like a brutal understatement.
i can never listen to this song just once...
🙌
That's funny. If you go to the Springsteen version on UA-cam, everyone says the same thing! #theboss

Wow this is wonderful. Springsteen's and this version are soooo amazing. I love them both(:
simply beautiful.... both songs, original and john's are beautiful in it's own ways and both express differenet emotion..

I love this cover of Bruce Springsteens masterpiece. ❤️
and I love the cover Town Mountain does too…
Hey little girl is your daddy home
Did he go away and leave you all alone
I got a bad desire
Oh, oh, oh, I'm on fire
Tell me now pretty baby is he good to you
Can he do to you the things that I do
I can take you higher
Oh, oh, oh, I'm on fire
OH oh oh im on fire
It's like someone took a knife
Edgy and dull and cut a six-inch valley
Through the middle of my skull
At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train running through the middle of my head
Only you can cool my desire
Oh, oh, oh I'm on fire
Oh, oh, oh I'm on fire
Hey little girl is your daddy home
Did he go away and leave you all alone
I got a bad desire
Oh, oh, oh I'm on fire
Tell me now baby is he good to you
Can he do to you the things that I do
I can take you higher
Oh, oh, oh I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire

This song just hits something nothing else can, reminds me of driving in the middle of the night and feeling like everything makes sense
Life doesn't get any better than this!😌
Muito bom... Já não ouvia um cover bom há uns minutos... 'Tava a ficar preocupado.
The voice of an angel. 💜
This does strange things to my heart.
Esther Bjerga need medicine?
Joe lane only if that medicine is more John Mayer.
this cover shows his appreciation to the BOSS, great job.
My favorite Bruce Springsteen’s song sung by John Mayer, what a beautiful day it’s today😍
Great interpretation of a very good song!
So in love with this song and this version.
Perfect

I think this version is better than the original one...great work John
Sorry, but no it isn't better. It's lacking the emotional depth that Springsteen conveys.
I love this man.. The Boss is amazing but I prefer this over the original, dont judge
+Rut Enheim there is no better version. This is just a song, it is just music. Not really sure how one can say this is better. Good or bad? Better or worse? These are based on preference. That goes for any song.
+Rut Enheim This version is soulless pop dogshit.
masterpiece.
This is one of john’s best studio performances and it’s a sin that it’s an iTunes exclusive
what a cover john mayor!!!! i'm in awe... watch out boss, new star is born...
Lots of love from india
2024 playlist!
AWESOME
John Mayer is probably the only musician next to Jeff Buckley that can cover a song and do it justice.

Why is this song just short of 3 minutes? It needs to be at least a minute longer. It's so beautiful.
In love with this song.

Let her husband find out somehow, she'll be single in a few days.
How these lusty, desperate lyrics sound so melodious!
1.30 is the part that i love the best!!!! Although i love it all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This song is guaranteed to put a lump in my throat no matter who is singing it.
It's an outstanding cover!

just because someone has a different opinion than you and even if there opinion wasn't needed, doesn't mean you have the right to tell someone to kill themselves, even if you are joking, nobody should ever be told to do that people take things more seriously than you could ever know.
I agree. Art is to be appreciated, and not compared. America seems to appreciate science and technology more than the arts.
