[@Artwaynetv]

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!

[@DearMarieBR]

Arthur Schubert Awww that's a beautiful name!

[@donovandrake9732]

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!

[@benwade7334]

Just bought the record today. nothing better than getting to know a new friend. You never cease to amaze....

[@HeROsiNhEaVeN]

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

[@RhonBell]

Just saw John on April 7th.....so awesome!!!!!

[@andreashipp4676]

Good for you John Clayton Mayer. Loved you then love you more than ever now

[@JeffRandallDrumming]

Surprised to find some really insightful questions! Must be something with John Mayer fans. :)

[@RayAndre]

Love your videos man!

[@JeffRandallDrumming]

Hey thanks Ray!

[@punkylemons5513]

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

[@amelievdh867]

Lovely to listen and watch on a Monday evening!

[@NJOverclocked]

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

[@timdegraauw1235]

'I just mowed the fuck outta that lawn' 24:06 Hahaha!

[@rebekahcarter3709]

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 💚🧘‍♀️💫

[@CaseyQueens]

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

[@BrandonJoshuaMusic]

when does he say that

[@CaseyQueens]

Brandon Joshua 7:50 😊

[@BrandonJoshuaMusic]

thank yoU!!

[@Carrots43]

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.

[@LenaDolter]

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

[@imaputternut8059]

Dear Marie BR I appreciate the post, as usual. I love Assassin, but totally understand and respect his feelings about performing it live (for now). I just love that he takes the time to "talk" to his fans. He's a rare gift.

[@DearMarieBR]

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

[@joxxk]

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!

[@candicemantle723]

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

[@TheWhollymoly]

Just saw that April 15 show in St. Paul. John's never sounded better! :)

[@DocRockk]

rvz77 well there you go. Your first mistake was thinking that you had thoughts anyone else wanted or needed to hear.. get back to us when your taste in music isn't up your ass out back in the dumpster that you live in. And no, I don't have any spare change you could have.

[@joshuawarren1203]

What the hell is rvz77's problem?

[@teeahtate]

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.

[@DearMarieBR]

teeahtate Exactly.We understand and respect his decision.

[@akirakai8784]

teeahtate it's such a dope song tho

[@teeahtate]

I agree. It is one of the best songs ever.

[@xkxdestinyx]

Thanks for posting!!!

[@hannnbish8533]

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

[@MichalGolata]

same

[@hannnbish8533]

Michał Gołata so excited! I've even got an in your atmosphere tattoo haha

[@MichalGolata]

hannn bish well I don't have a tattoo but exited as well for the venue :) Enjoy the show

[@melissanoel2034]

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!

[@rockstarnurse2693]

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.

[@carlay.brownspokenword8409]

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

[@Original_Lurke_fromthe_Unknown]

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

[@edwardking1312]

Greatest Album thus far this Century !!! A classic !!! Thanks for a perfect album

[@SeanLaue]

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!!!!

[@ann-marieheidingsfelder8859]

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

[@12vivre]

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:)

[@todayssam153]

engaging with his fans is awesome way to give back to the community good for him but boy he looks tired.

[@LSommer]

very cool interview. ty.

[@leannedoherty5046]

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

[@PremiereModelLayouts]

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!

[@cdbrown30]

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

[@badhombre4246]

[@jm031962]

Hey John...Can't wait to see you live in Vancouver Canada April 19th.Taking my 16 year old daughter who is a huge fan (as am I) & we hope you can squeeze Queen of California into the set. Thanks!

[@DearMarieBR]

jm031962 Have fun!

[@Theheartofyoga]

[@jessicaswitt7131]

I always need a nap after reading too!

[@Theheartofyoga]

[@geneleoneii3013]

YAAA fairfield CT lets goooo!

[@LSommer]

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.

[@DavidFlint123]

[@kevinshaughnessy2528]

Come back to Las Vegas NV. Soon 😏✌

[@LivingIn1969]

You are the fucking man John, every thing you say rings true for myself man it's actually hard to believe, like the thing about reading.Though i'm not rocking the world as you are. Perfect music...

[@ThatGyrl27]

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.

[@deepalmer3960]

Twenty Foreplay ...The hairs on my arms stood up when I saw that...wish I could have flicked it off and stepped on it. Hoping it didn't crawl into his shirt....yikes!

[@sherylmcleroy7290]

The Bank Job is a good movie Jason Statham plays Terry Leather 💙💜💚💛❤

[@demetrimeko]

good stuff bro

[@DJFisherCat]

Hey, this was on my birthday!

[@angelicamuncyharriscoleman7064]

I love his take on Hallieluia by Lenord Cohen, after KD Langs of course

[@sea_hous]

Damn Assassin is a great song. Hadn't heard it before.

[@VK-pk8uz]

Check out the entire album is on, Battle Studies. It's pretty good! I personally like Assassin, Crossroads, and War of my life.

[@vars311]

one of my favorites, he never plays it live tho :(

[@benjaminroe1375]

Kreate Space I was very fortunate to see it played live in 2010 on the Battle Studies tour.

[@indieshitzzz]

that song is most difficult for me to play after neon and edge of desire. he used some genius notes some of which he had used earlier in his 1st ep inside wants out and in roomfor squares too .he used in Eddie's attic in the starting and he played that song live in berklee in 2009 I think. Its one of the best song by trio in battle studies

[@nashpadilla2795]

wow...assassin is my favorite song..

[@henrygreen4932]

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

[@nashpadilla2795]

Henry Green no yeah I understand and I respect it. but it's just sad because that song was the start of my love for him and his music. till this day assassin is my absolute favorite song and John Mayer is my favorite singer and musician. I been waiting for him to sing this song live in his world tour but sadly he won't.

[@teeahtate]

My favorite, too. It is like a movie set to music.

[@teeahtate]

He sang it live in the Battle Studies World Tour. There is a live video on KZbin.

[@nashpadilla2795]

teeahtate literally I've watched all of them on youtube.. but I wanted to hear him play it recent... see if he would throw alittle spin on it or not but hey.. maybe one day.

[@sugarkush777north6]

i aspire to be john mayer he;s like a mexican buddha

[@angelicamuncyharriscoleman7064]

You should get William Mackpeace Thacery's the story with no hero, Vanity Fair. You know, on tape or whatever

[@lentas08]

Maesto!!!

[@MichalGolata]

I got the same thing with forgetting just read lines while reading books :D

[@TylerDurden9LB]

Absolutely. Especially fiction.

[@sasc]

Brasil fans are the best!!! Saludos desde Venezuela :) country neighbours

[@DearMarieBR]

Samuel Sánchez I don't know we're the best fans, but I know he has a lot of fans in Brazil.We love him so much.Thanks God his tour will be here in next October.Come to Brazil🇧🇷❤

[@loldoctor]

Dear Marie BR he said in another livestream (hangouts) that brazil had the best fans :)

[@madbro502]

hi Dear Marie, are there other dates for his tour (other than the US ones) posted anywhere online?

[@DearMarieBR]

Brian Ordoñez on his official website (johnmayer.com) you can find all the dates

[@madbro502]

I tried searching there but only found dates in the US. :(

[@nat2844]

I'm so sad because 🇨🇱 is not part of your tour this year...

[@DearMarieBR]

Natalia Andrea Wolter Serrano 😔

[@nat2844]

Dear Marie BR really it's so frustrating... For him I pay the ticket more expensive

[@DearMarieBR]

Natalia Andrea Wolter Serrano As a fan I understand.So sorry because his tour will not go to your country.Maybe next time.

[@nat2844]

Dear Marie BR I hope the same thing

[@problematty6214]

do you think he's ever coming to Mexico? I'm dying to see him live

[@DearMarieBR]

problematty He didn't say anything yet about touring in Mexico

[@sujayanarula3913]

Did I see you in the Zumba class dancing right at the back few years ago?! I turned back for a moment I saw a guy in all women's class who kinda looked uncomfortable 😄

[@jacobh3442]

What is the difference between the dead & company tour shows and the shows he is doing after that?

[@TheLaserr]

Jacob H His shows now are ones that are with his music, including his new album as well as stuff from The John Mayer Trio.

[@tommynader09]

Hi John, I have that EXACT same thing with reading books... sucks haha!

[@Shardul280694]

tommynader09 haha, i was the one who asked the question ;)

[@quazymart]

Shardul Dabane which part of the video does he talk about this?

[@Shardul280694]

Skeptic Dirk Nowitzki somewhere around 18:45

[@carlay.brownspokenword8409]

I do nothing but eat crab legs and hush puppies on vacation.

[@euroconsumibles9409]

Hi, come soon to Perú

[@candicemantle723]

Thank you for looking out to our veterans. God bless you and America and the free world!

[@mihneasechely]

[@madduxgreer5337]

Mihnea Sechely probably John playing and Dave singing

[@LSommer]

Did you talk Dead with Ryan at all?

[@angelicamuncyharriscoleman7064]

When someone is boasting a joint I always tell them, it's not a microphone mother fucker, pass it along, 420, 420, then I sing this 420 melody for grateful dead

[@samme79]

He doesn't want to play assassin anymore :(

[@12vivre]

I have way too much family values

[@demetrimeko]

[@demetrimeko]

hello

[@bso6371gt]

Who is Rosie? And who is Marie? Just curious

[@FikriIzzaldin]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/n6mpmHVsi8yantk here, he explained the song 'Dear Marie' beautifully

[@christian_uu]

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): kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJPToKSKd9N5jc0 Source (Marie): kzbin.info/www/bejne/n6mpmHVsi8yantk&ab_channel=JohnMayerUSA
