John Mayer - Bigger Than My Body (Official HD Video)

[@TheTwilightShadow69]

That "someday I'll fly, someday I'll soar" line is euphoric. Just pure heaven to my ears.

[@charlottehanna9092]

Someday I'll be something much more! Oh yes

Josh, have you ever seen the "Someday I'll Fly" documentary on John? It's on KZbin and is made by Eastwood Allen. Well worth a watch!! MJ Brandon, Manitoba CANADA May 8, 2019.

[@MrSchmerzen98]

Not only his songs are great, but I just love the aesthetics of the early 2000's videoclips

[@alexhaggar2657]

it’s a vibe for sure… first heard this song in the car as a 6 year old kid, the nostalgia hits hard for sure. my mom was a huge mayer fan and would play room for squares and heavier things in the car whenever we’d run errands. but it wasn’t until my teenage years where i rediscovered mayer and i’m so grateful i did.

[@kakashiuchiha9556]

Plot twist: it's actually John's speaker and nobody noticed except that one girl Don't stop chasing your dreams it doesn't matter if only two people or no one believes in you. You'll fly and soar someday, show them what you're capable of and you're more than what they think of you.

[@HumanbeingonfloatingEarth]

[@nikolajrasmussen9573]

That's not a plot twist, that's the plot :)

[@ImmaFlamingo]

Heavier Things brings me back to such a happy time in my life. I was working a crappy job with no future. I had nothing to my name and zero idea what lay ahead of me. But I had great coworkers, I was meeting the most diverse people, and was having the time of my life. I’m feeling very nostalgic lately. (I do love my husband and children. But sometimes I temporarily miss the carefree days).

[@shiptj01]

Man, we're so optimistic and determined when we are young, but then the world beats us up and turns our passion into just another job...

[@PP7Silenced]

Yes. We try our best to find a sound and I might make it mine and tomorrow I might hate myself, and tomorrow I might not be the same, but the music lives on, and the sun is still shining. So I might just hate myself Tomorrow. I might still never accomplish my dreams. But tomorrow I will out play em, out yell em, out shine them. So who's the man? The sun is still shining. And it ain't over.

[@musicandpoetry_8]

So true! Sadly

[@graemewhitmore6875]

Man that hits home

[@jemma_19988]

I am more optimistic at 50 than back when this song came out!! Wish I could back tell that 30 yr old to not worry about life

[@AdagioPhoenix]

Its 2020 and the older this song gets the better it becomes.

[@mitchellmcmullen7552]

foreall, great artist!

[@meggiewillis9705]

It sure does get better.

[@CameraMan66]

Yeah agreed! I feel like this song looks familiar to another song in a disney sequel end credits. Maybe Brother Bear 2 but I don't know

[@marconeres2502]

Hello yeah!

[@thrasher2753]

Definitely. I'm a freakin metalhead too but this song is super inspirational

[@atleastimnotfat6529]

Eric Clapton said Jon Mayer was a master. As a guitarist, I stand by that statement.

[@fhowland]

John’s music is timeless. This sounds as current today as it did nearly 20 years ago.

[@IAMLASHAIE]

I was middle school when this song came out. I liked it then and still do now!

[@atleastimnotfat6529]

doesn't matter what Mayer has done in his personal life. he's a master musicians and displays more talent then basically anyone in the music industry right now.

[@freddybeer]

He's a masterclass! End of. Anyone who knows MUSIC knows how good he is.

[@TheRacboys]

I don't care who he dates as long as his music is good.

[@chriswilkey1515]

John Mayer is the best musician ever! I don't care about his personal life. I don't listen to that!

[@oliverandm]

This sort of pop is something you just don't see today, you just haven't seen for a long time! It's so sad to be honest. John is ridiculously creative in this song. The effect is amazing! Exceptional to be honest! The lyrics are fantastic and extremely inspiring! As much as i like to see John evolve, i will always have a speciel place in my heart for Room for Squares and Heavier Things, it's just two pop albums that exceed so much out there, truly plays with the imagination of a great songwriter

[@anahata42]

👌

[@ceyannacarter2590]

Omg this comment is from 10 years ago💀😭

[@forgotaboutbre]

John Mayer did not write a song about other people adoring him, at least not this one. This is a song about adoring oneself which means that I appreciate my immediate self and I appreciate other people/things around me, which are an extension of my self. This is a song that transcends the desire to be noticed and admired and adored by others. This song is a song about personal empowerment. The adoration/admiration happens as a side effect of being such a beast!

[@Zelical]

Here's how I see it: A lot of people have something special about them, and a lot of people might notice these traits, but they don't really see the person, just what they create. But sometimes someone will come along and see past that, and see the person as well as what they do, and put two-and-two together...and wonder why no one else sees it.

[@geocopen]

And that someone will be a braless superhot brunette with great ass and tits. :)

[@Zelical]

Why yes. Yes it is. Though if you want to be metaphorical, it's easier to convey the "perfect person for you", in a music VIDEO, as an attractive one rather than trying to display their character and make you see them as perfect through that.

[@kristianbrandt3012]

They do. They just don't post it because it's so bleeding obvious. I don't see how anyone could find a different core theme in the video. Or the song for that matter.

[@Zelical]

Kristian Brandt Well, if no one cared then maybe this comment would have faded into obscurity within the 5 months. Strangely it hasn't. C'est la vie.

Lyrics: This is a call to the colorblind This is an IOU Stranded behind a horizon line Try to be something true Yes, I'm grounded Got my wings clipped I'm surrounded by All this pavement Guess I'll circle While I'm waiting For my fears to dry Someday I'll fly Someday I'll soar Someday I'll be Something much more Cause I'm bigger than my body Gives me credit for Why is it not the time? What is there more to learn? I've shed this skin I've been tripping in And I've never quite returned Yes, I'm grounded Got my wings clipped I'm surrounded by All this pavement Guess I'll circle While I'm waiting For my fuse to dry Someday I'll fly Someday I'll soar Someday I'll be Something much more Cause I'm bigger than my body Gives me credit for Cause I'm bigger than my body now Maybe I'll tangle in the power lines And it might be over in a second's time But I'll gladly go down in a flame If the flame's what it takes to remember my name To remember my name, oh Yes, I'm grounded Got my wings clipped I'm surrounded by All this pavement Guess I'll circle While I'm waiting For my fuse to dry Someday I'll fly Someday I'll soar Someday I'll be Something much more Cause I'm bigger than my body Gives me credit for Cause I'm bigger than my body Bigger than my body Bigger than my body now

Twenty years ago, John Mayer told the music world he was "Bigger Than My Body"! This hit still clicks as modern!

No i kinda think that they did pretty well with it. I get the feeling he's happy standing back in the crowd and letting the people enjoy something thats bigger than himself that even he has to stand and admire? i dunno

“Some day I’ll fly, some day I’ll soar.” This should always be a mood.

For everyone who has been commenting saying that john mayer wrote this song about how much he and other people love him, your wrong.
