Hey guys,
This is a cover of one of my favourite songs off of one of my favourite albums ever recorded: 'Slow Dancing in a Burning Room' from John Mayer's Continuum. I hope you enjoy it, and thank you so much for your support and friendship, here on KZread.
I just realised, I don't have a playlist to add this video to. It's definitely not one of my unconventional choices, as it's perfect for guitar, being written by one of the best guitarists to come along since the likes of Stevie Ray Vaughan. I'll think of something. :-)
Hope everyone is well, and God bless you all!
Peace, love and light,
Adam ;-)

John Mayer - SLOW DANCING IN A BURNING ROOM - Lyrics:
It's not a silly little moment,
It's not the storm before the calm.
This is the deep and dying breath of
This love that we've been working on.
Can't seem to hold you like I want to
So I can feel you in my arms.
Nobody's gonna come and save you,
We pulled too many false alarms.
We're going down,
And you can see it too.
We're going down,
And you know that we're doomed.
My dear,
We're slow dancing in a burning room.
I was the one you always dreamed of,
You were the one I tried to draw.
How dare you say it's nothing to me?
Baby, you're the only light I ever saw.
I'll make the most of all the sadness,
You'll be a bitch because you can.
You try to hit me just to hurt me
So you leave me feeling dirty
Because you can't understand.
We're going down,
And you can see it too.
We're going down,
And you know that we're doomed.
My dear,
We're slow dancing in a burning room.
Go cry about it - why don't you?
Go cry about it - why don't you?
Go cry about it - why don't you?
My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room,
Burning room,
Burning room,
Burning room,
Burning room.
Don't you think we oughta know by now?
Don't you think we shoulda learned somehow?
Don't you think we oughta know by now?
Don't you think we shoulda learned somehow?
Don't you think we oughta know by now?
Don't you think we shoulda learned somehow?
Don't you think we shoulda learned somehow?
Don't you think we shoulda learned somehow?
Don't you think we shoulda learned somehow?
Don't you think we shoulda learned somehow?

It's not often that you watch a strictly guitar cover of a song that you've heard a million times, and it affects you emotionally. I think that speaks to how talented this guy is with his instrument.
Look at that soul when he plays ! one of the greatest thing to listen to .
I was obsessed with this song when I started playing the acoustic 3 years ago. I'm still blown away when I hear your cover of it. Great skills, interpretation and the best cover on youtube. Not a copycat version.

That means so much, Steve! Thank you! Humbled and thankful to have your amazing support. You rock!
Best cover on KZread. I'd probably pay like $50 for the tab... you'd be surprised how much money you could make if you transcribed your work into paper and sold. Consider it?
You just made me cry.. Most perfect John Mayer cover I've ever heard in my whole life!
Just want to say a big thank you to EVERYONE viewing and sharing these videos - it means the world to me, guys. God bless you all a millionfold, and thank you for your support. It is because of such awesome viewers that I'm inspired to continue making videos. Thank you for giving me the encouragement to continue doing something I love to do. You are all the best - thank you! :-)
Hey Adam, I'm amazed at how much of your own emotion you manage to convey through your playing whilst paying respect to the original artist. This song is particularly emotional for me as I used to sing it with a guy who is no longer with us. Thanks for adding a new layer of expression to an already amazing song.

edtsidas Thank you so much - that really means a huge amount. It's one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. John is a masterful songwriter, and I'm glad to hear it's got a special place in your heart. Thank you for such a humbling comment - it really means a lot to me.
I'm a bass player, been playing about 4 years now. Play a bit of guitar but not much. Yet you inspire me so much! You can hear the passion in your playing and you're truly incredible!
every time i listen john's songs i take the guitar on my hands...it's like a med!
Amazing milky tone your getting from that strat! I come back to this video from time to time and always come away inspired. Definitely my favorite Mayer song to jam to and out all the covers ive seen on youtube, I think yours is the best one. Thanks for sharing!
I really love this cover. This, to me, is what a good cover should be. It's fluent, expressive, pleasing to the ear, and clearly shows an intuitive understanding on your part. Amazing.
This is absolutely incredible. Brought tears to my eyes. Thank you for this.
Soul and love with no words!
Adam, This is absolutely brilliant! I closed my eyes, and I could tell you felt EVERY single note that you played. This is what playing music is all about! Its not about what kind of clothes your wearing, or what kind of guitar you have, its about feeling your instrument. And you displayed that with perfection. Thank You for sharing your feelings with us!! LP.
PLEASE do more John Mayer!! this is absolutely spellbounding...
The best cover I've seen of this song, by far. It's so hard to find covers of this song where anyone makes an effort to understand the feel of the song. Slow Dancing will forever be my favourite song, of any genre.
Great feel .....your love for music comes across so well. Amazing.... beautiful sound.
Coming from a true John Mayer fan: best guitar cover ever. Congratulations man, i loved it !
So much soul in that electric, nice job
This is my new favorite version of an already incredible song.
Best cover I have ever seen, keep up the GREAT work. I am really inspired.

You did an amazing job covering every aspect and I love how you played the lyrics with every instrument. Beautiful!
just plain awesome!! thanks for playing!
Absolutely beautiful.
I just sat here and watched every one of your videos. You're a phenomenal musician. I couldn't agree more with you about John Mayer's 'Continuum' album, by far his best work. This is also your best work. Absolutely amazing!
Very soulfull voicing, fluid and natural. Captured the songs vibe.
Very cool! Well played, well put together and great choice of songs. Dude, love the hair! Rock on!
Respect, brother! This is, without a doubt, the greatest piece of coverwork I've ever seen. I think we share the shame passion for John. Keep up the good work!
It sounds heavenly!!
it only gets harder to not hit replay. fantastic.
Absolutely amazing!!
This was great. I love that you combined both electric guitar and acoustic. Keep the covers coming!
Dudddee the chillllssss .... Omg from the heart straight to the heart.... Keep it up brah
I like what you're going for with these covers man. You make the electric very expressive!
I have to say that was awesome completely blown away by your cover
INCREDIBLE! I find each of your efforts more amazing than the last!!! Thanks for all you do :-)
Love how you really bring your expression out through the guitar. Good work man.

Wow... that was amazing. Wow.
Wow, that's amazing! A perfect cover!
Beast! II love this song man, you did an awesome job. loved it!!
love how he actually got the tone of the guitar to match the voice of Mayer!!!
Again, you leave me in amazement! Fantastic job! Every time you put out a new vid, you inspire me to do more songs that one can play the vocal line to and improvise throughout the song. Keep going at it, Adam and God Bless you!!
This is so great Adam! Real pleasure to listen.
I had chills while listening to this cover. YOU'RE AMAZING!
I can actually play this song but the fact that you solo out the vocal line with the tone you do is insane man and its fucking gorgeous
Great, great rendition! Really love it.
You are so talented!! Great job, I love this song!

@TheoMilnePicken Thanks so much, Theo! I'm glad you did, as it's great to meet you on here. Your technique is blistering - amazing! Such precision! I wish you all the very best with your music. And the camera I use to film is a Canon 7D. Hope that helps, and hope you have a great week! :-)
Very melodic playing. Love it.

Phenomenal, Adam! John Mayer is a huge inspiration of mine and you've really done the song justice!

Excellent reddition Adam! Would have liked to hear some singing but I was very surprised with all the guitars! Keep it up!
That's always been one of my favourite songs too, from the moment I first heard it! And this is one amazing cover - great tone, great playing, great song... well done my friend!
That was probably one of the best YT videos I've seen in a while. Fantastic playing man! Loved it.
Brother, you are straight up talented. That's some of the smoothest guitar playing I have seen in a while on youtube. Some really tasteful playing man. I have officially subscribed.
Adam, You are the reason I got into guitar playing, which eventually got me into bass playing, among other things. I've always played piano and sang, but now that you have inspired me to play guitar and bass, I've gotten the inspiration to write my own music. Since doing so, I have written 30+ songs and hope to be sending off a demo of my music to recording studios soon! Thank you so much for the beautiful music you create, and keep it up!!
