John Mayer will go down in history as a genuine musical genius.

An insightful, inspirational, articulate and brilliantly talented gent...

That part about him not wanting to play Assassin ever again makes so much sense. I love that song, but I totally get it...

Hey thanks Ray!

Thanks for keeping John connected with fans like myself who do not have IG, twitter and Facebook accounts but do have a KZread account...!

john mayer is my hero i can relate to almost every song and will always be a fan! mostly because of the respect he earned to get that sleeve and the balls to go through with the elbow full color😮 see you in Raleigh my man peace and love!

This whole album is about getting over heart break and we know who it's about, I enjoy John as a musican, I have to say we both are unlucky in love so I can relate to this album.

My daughters name is Olivia and when she first heard your song she just wanted to hear it over and over and dance! Thank you for all your music! Edge of Desire is the BEST!

I like Assassin and I understand why he may not want to sing it live now. The song is about his carefree sex life. Since he has grown and matured, he does not want to be reminded of that period of his life. Songs bring up memories.

ImaPutterNut Love Assassin too, but respect his feelings about this song.Thank you for appreciate our posts.You' re welcome!❤

Mr. Mayer, I don't think you'll actually read this but if you do I just want you to know that Still feel like your man was great. I wish the whole album was on par with that song. I wish you'd make all your music with the john mayer trio. You have money and success and nothing to prove anymore and that makes it great for you but bad for me. Enjoy your success brother, you deserve it for sure. What you've done for the music industry is great and I can't deny that. The theory of the starving artist holds true with a couple exceptions for you. From a strictly selfish stand point I wish you were still starving but I can't say I'd do anything different if I were in your shoes. JOHN MAYER TRIO PLEASE CONTINUE!!!!

I love that my favorite artist in the world is partnered with my favorite guitar company in the world (Paul Reed Smith).

Love on the Weekend is a sweet little song. and yes, I see your point on how it can be a downer of a feel good song

I seen him on the 14th in KC, (front row floor) the night before he done this.. wow.. he was soooo good! cant wait to see him again!

Seeing him in London in May and I honestly can't wait. I've been waiting for this for years ❤️

My Favorite song is "Never on the Day You Leave" I think this is the best song on the album since “In Repair”.

No Such Thing. Your Body Is A Wonderland. Daughters. Gravity (breaks me right down) Say. Perfectly Lonely. Why Georgia. Waiting On The World To Change. Half Of My Heart. Dreaming With A Broken Heart. Heart Of Life. All my favs. John Mayer and one other artist are the only ones that have their own playlist in my phone.

I love Assassin. You played the hell out of it live. I thought you’d never stop playing.

John Mayer is amazing! Visually, would like to see the questions and comments streaming like in Instagram.

This was great...I really enjoyed listening to you...here as well as your concert in Philly 3 weeks ago...I love the new CD and I love Helpless as well as the whole CD!!! I am a guitar girl...and I love hearing your voice and guitar!!! My husband plays a mean guitar also....our daughter also enjoys your music...she saw you with us back in 2011...she is 30!!! Thanks again...oh and this is Cheryl not Ray...ha ha....love you...Cheryl :) Oh my husband also enjoys your music:)

Totally enjoyed your concert last Saturday in Vegas! You are amazing and freaking gorgeous!

I am way late to this party but I am a "fall asleep reader" too! I am also a great reader with a master's degree in Educational Psychology. I had great grades but it was torture! I have started listening to books on audibles! IT WORKS! Auditory input Rocks! By the way I have seen you twice! Once in Grand Rapids and once in Detroit (Clarkston) I have been your fan from the beginning because no one can turn a phrase like you do!!!!!! Your lyrics make me think and I respect that!

9:33 same look and position as album cover lol

Thank you for always doing these little videos! I love hearing the insights and tidbits!

Thank you, John for your contribution of who you ARE inside tti the world. I get so much good cheer ABC's inspiration from listening to you think out loud. My entire journey for 6 years has been guided by you and your music. #samadhi "yours in yogic health" Bekah 💚🧘‍♀️💫

John, you literally gave me hearing damage from when I was five feet from the stage at the House of Blues on sunset, but I forgive you!

Hello, Leanne Doherty here from the North of Ireland (Northern Ireland), I love your honesty, really loving and enjoying your talent. My gorgeous partner who is a real talented guitarist, is a massive fan. I actually got into your music when we visited Amsterdam, whilst having a typical experience whilst there. Now a massive fan!! If and when you come to Ireland, please come to Derry. (NORTHERN IRELAND, LONDONDERRY) . Also come for breakfast

Please document this! April in Kansas City was a great show!

I love this . . . Video Liner Notes! Love the records . . .every single note.

Books on Tape. Fiction will broaden your ability to portray different perspectives. Shoot, now my heart is aching for you John. For Real. Please try a book in some form every now and then. I would be happy to read to yall myself for Jerry's sake.

Thanks for posting!!!

I always need a nap after reading too!

very cool interview. ty.

Lovely to listen and watch on a Monday evening!

Did anyone else notice the bug that appeared out of nowhere around the 29:20 mark? It crawled around John's right shoulder for about 10 minutes. I was hoping someone watching live would tell him.

The song seems to be about his sex/ love life at the time. "You get in, you get done and then you get gone. You never leave a trace, or show your face, you get gone. " He doesn't wanna remind himself of that life he was living, where he would kind of just take advantage of being John Mayer. He's trying to move on and I guess this is a way of him pushing forward

I attended a concert of john back in february, he mentioned Rosie was just a silly drunk obsessed character he made. Marie was a person who john met at a church, apparently he fell in love immediately, it was a relationship he felt was very genuine and sincere since it was developed before he rose to fame. Years later, John found Marie while he was browsing facebook and noticed she was married, the encounter was really emotional for him. Eventually leading to him writing the song :') really bittersweet Many believe Marie his first girlfriend (the same person who he wrote about in Your Body is a Wonderland) Source (Rosie): kzread.info/dash/bejne/aJak0dONctGsh84.html Source (Marie): kzread.info/dash/bejne/m6x6yaRvhsrNmNo.html&ab_channel=JohnMayerUSA
