John Mayer - Live on Letterman[11/19/09] - 3. Half of My Heart

[@auroraa606]

Damn, I love this version. When the music slows down at 4:10 and when John sings 'said I don`t want to hurt no one' , love it.. Let a man be lost..

[@lukeandrewchesser]

jesus robbie is just killing it on lead. that guy could play the most beautiful melody in his sleep

[@mrsockmonkey1969]

Luke Chesser except at 2:20 he clams bad and it was real noticeable. Other than that it was fine.

[@oenattac]

I love when he brakes down....what an atmosphere!

[@bryantcindan]

Yes!! The Turner Model 1. I certainly do enjoy the one I own. The best guitars in the world.

[@Flatbush2258]

Love this performance...

[@danieleshapiro]

Great song! Really like the this extended version. I'm really starting to like John Mayer a lot! I mean he even has an old dude (like me) playing electric guitar riffs.

[@danr5105]

My favorite version also.

[@xberberx]

the end is beautifull!!!

[@TobyEllisSongwriter]

@nicolitox "Let a Man Be Lost" an unreleased Battle Studies track he never finished. And nope, it hasnt been leaked, we can only get a snippet of its glory as an extended bridge within Half Of My Heart. :( One day, maybe...

[@armusha1904]

TobyEllisSongwriter and has it?

[@jerrychiemeke7525]

@@armusha1904 nope. Maybe never

[@BEYONDTHEPALE1]

In my humble opinion this is John Mayer's best song so far. That's saying something because there have been some good ones. Sounds even better with Taylor. Concentrate on your fantastic music John and stay out of the tabloids.

[@milton216]

this is really good (:

[@fredagsedb]

I agree with him being great live.

[@FuelMYHARTZ]

i was born in the arms of imaginary friends.... this guy is a fucking genious. seriously no one would hav thought of such line. this tells so neatly how much of a genious this man is

[@NOFZILLA25]

YEAH!!!!he's caoming to NZ LOVE this track

[@diogoferreira1282]

Good show👍

[@auroraa606]

There`s a time and place for evrything ;)

[@EkalbGnilrad]

@iplayguitar420 You're completely right! It only fits, seeing as this song seems to have a strong Fleetwood Mac influence. Nice catch.

[@HeartbreakerGuitars]

great turner guitar... pick one up at Heartbreaker Guitars in Vegas!

[@planet485]

Why do they always tuck Sean Hurley (the bassist) away in the back next to the drums? He's nice to look at tooooo!!!!!! When he was in Vertical Horizon, he was more active and visible on stage. So talented too!

[@brandonkeeley]

Is that the Lindsey Buckingham Ax?

[@zsunny24]

I think no one performs live bettr than John

[@DaLaxer98]

Only 1 other man….his name is Bono.

[@biancacookhook]

Only John Mayer can replace John Mayer. Haha.

[@baconman2101]

fred what are you talkin about. he does this great live its a great song off the new cd the audience isnt yawning its the venue there not suppose to get up it was like this with tim mcgraws concert the did there.

[@billy2cold]

What's the name of the old dude playing the lead guitar riffs? He's pretty good.

[@Vinnola14]

Robbie Mcintosh!

[@thejo3338]

He's a God

[@thinwire]

isn't that a Lindsey Buckingham style guitar????

[@trator_ensaboado]

what does he sing at the end of the song? from 4:35 to the end, can someone help me?

[@danr5105]

"Don't want to hurt no one, but I still have some running to do." Not so clear the rest. Great version. Here is a link to the same performance with better audio. 18.00 min point or so. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bIOkqqt9nZWnq9U

[@MrTimonSalomez]

I kinda like the song and I do so with most of his work, but sometimes it's hard to believe that this is the same guy that blew my mind with his performance of "Out of my mind" on his "where the light is"-dvd.... Pity he doesn't exploit his potential to it's fullest, even though I like the poppy stuff aswell.

[@MovieJustin]

This song is technical also if you look back in hindsight.

[@Muipoful]

@randombebe He just made it up on the spot.

[@fredagsedb]

@baconman2101 And i loved the rest of the concert by the way.

[@baconman2101]

@fredagsedb i feel your point of view i dont think its a disgrace just something new that i feel that worked out for the better. alot of fans are mad cus he went away from a blues sounding record but i prefer his pop work it sounds better to me. but not denying his blues work is good aswell.

[@jawide626]

@nyprospect988 i think it's the same reason queen never did bohemian rhapsody all the way through live. too many effects and stuff... but thats just what i think, he might have his own reasons.

[@milton216]

yea i hope he can perform live with taylor swift together (:

[@aleckzandriasantiago]

uhm i dont understand why there’s 7 dislikes for this perf i mean.. Just howwwww

[@jerowenlugte]

do you have that song somewhere online? "let a man be lost"cant find it no where? thanks

[@carletoncandis635]

A drummer who in demand Steve Jordan

[@Markssu]

heh.. strange guitar and an awesome song!=D

[@Circatat]

i think its missing something, oh, Taylor Swfit's voice. haha i dont know i just think it suits the song, Taylor's voice in the back ground.. you know.. oh but whatever. its JOHN MAYER! :D

[@drdmento]

does he really ad-lib all those little in-betweens? I've always tried to look at his teleprompter, but I can't make out the words... just curious....

[@Neil4Speed]

Kind of strange seeing him playing Lindsey Buckingham's Model 1 - Great guitar though, love it!

[@labybing]

can someone put the lyrics of the song in minute 4:35 to the end??

[@Gabrielitoarocha]

what kind of guitar is he playing?

[@PeterZeeke]

is that linsey buckinham's guitar?

[@nicolitox]

What is the song at 4:15?

[@AndersWendelMusic]

@Schmison many artists use them these days..even paul mccartney. its normal

[@AloJou]

@finski8 True, that makes sence. But in a way doesn't everyone strive to be unique and an artsy musician?

[@TheDVDGamer]

@royxx3 lindsey buckinham made the guitar he playes

[@johnielsen08]

@gyoung1234 Yea, there's some about back up singers that makes me think of a washed up 60 year old classic rock show.

[@iplayguitar420]

lidsany buckingham uses that guitar ~!!!

[@nyprospect988]

why doesnt he do assassin

[@dougsusername]

@nyprospect988 he didn't have it down by then. if you'll notice early in the winter tour the song was shaky. he wants to give the best performance he can. i'd rather not have it then not at 100%

[@mastermusicman24]

Rick Turner made the guitar Lindsey Buckinham played. It is similar to the one John is playing. Model 1 is right...

[@AloJou]

Im just wondering...what are his douchy behaviours? Like, what has he done?

[@SuperLeonidas14]

Thankfully not in this performance. I'm sorry but she cannot sing live

[@stones879]

great great.....he knows his fleetwood mac and bought himself a buckingham guitar

[@stablecontrol]

John mayer dosent plays soft rock. he plays:blues rock, acoustic rock, pop rock

[@bahbah87]

i find it more dire straits influenced

[@irlnd32]

Fleetwood Mac

[@gyoung1234]

i wish he would just leave the back up singing to david ryan harris and bring back the horns.

[@Jerkoffkid]

@nyprospect988 live performance of assassin kinda blows

[@Cassie9821]

Where's Taylor??? :(

[@fredagsedb]

Well... I'm gonna be pick a blues feel over country almost any day, so i definetely belong to that group. And if i want some background soft, him and his guitar- popwork, then i put Jack Johnson or John Mayers early work on. I don't feel as if the world needs more of that, especially not from a guy that can do much more, but i obviously makes him and a lot of people happy, so i'm just gonna have to quench my musical thirst elsewhere. :)

[@jonmui40]

the old man fucked up LOL

[@fredagsedb]

I know about the audience. My point was just that I feel a song like this is a disgrace to John Mayers talent-level, both as a songwriter but especially as a musician. I'm disappointed. He is settlin' for to little if this is the kind of music he's going to make.

[@fredagsedb]

I can understand the yawning by the audience in this song...

[@TheNissanKing]

John... get some better backup singers...

[@AndersWendelMusic]

he sounds very bad here..wow..not good enough john

[@Bee000]

I agree,they are just not good at all.Very useless

[@climbjay]

the worst band line up he's had in a while... i love steve jordan cos he pens the drum parts but i think JJ is a MUCH better, steadier, tighter live player. funny...i think JJ plays SJ's parts better than SJ...lol!! robbie is great DRH is still great...he def should bring the horns back and dela/pino and the previous keys player...this band seems like it's a recylcled/washed up WTLI band...
