John Mayer NY, Beacon Theatre - 11. Half of My Heart

[@RastaSaiyaman]

Finally a live version where you can actually hear the Turner guitar, instant Lindsey Buckingham sound.

[@altadena57]

So true

[@Overblazeinnitmate]

Damnnnn

[@venomrocks101]

For anyone wondering what guitar John is using; it is the legendary Rick Turner Model 1 guitar customly made and produced exclusively for legendary guitarist Lindsey Buckingham of Fleetwood Mac in 1979. Lindsey Buckingham has used this guitar for about 32 years and stated it is one of the best instruments he ever played ! Before 1979, Lindsey used a Custom Gibson Les Paul and Fender Stratocaster and Telecaster.

[@McFilipa30]

John does a little dance when he starts playing XD so cute! i just love him :D and i absolutely love this song!

[@Guedaumjija]

"let a man be lost... for once in his liiife" Freakin' awesome!

[@nata122]

i love the meaning of this song. and i love how john knows how to evoke such feelings out of people with his brilliantly chosen lyrics

[@TheMangolatino]

His music ALWAYS manages to give me goosebumps... awesome.

[@thekartikgulati]

the improv at the end is classic mayer stuff

[@JakeLondonRivers]

It upsets me that he's such a funny guy and it seems to go over the audience's head all the time. His intro was funny and nobody was laughing.

[@ChizM]

This is an hq recording which means you cant hear the audience that well they probably was

[@raysaspaniol]

It wasn't that funny

[@raysaspaniol]

I love him but it wasn't that funny

[@danr5105]

They were anxious for him to start playing. If he is talking he is not singing and playing.

[@willymccabe6602]

People got it. They just didn't laugh because it wasn't funny.

[@p0rsch997]

my favorite version of Half of My Heart :)

[@oliverandm]

John is playing a Turner Model 1 McIntosh is playing Deusenberg Double Cat The Double Cat is a excellent slide guitar!

[@shivan4219]

I was born in the arms of imaginary friends Free to roam, made a home out of everywhere I've been Then you come on crashing in Like the realest thing Tried my best to understand All that your love can bring Half of my heart's got a grip on the situation Half of my heart takes time Half of my heart's got the right mind to tell you That I can't keep loving you With half of my heart I was made to believe I'd never love somebody else Made a plan, stayed the man who can only love himself Lonely was the song I sang 'Til the day you came Showing me another way And all that my love can bring Half of my heart's got a grip on the situation Half of my heart takes time Half of my heart's got the right mind to tell you That I can't keep loving you With half of my heart With half of my heart Your faith is strong But I can only fall short for so long Down the road later on You will hate that I never gave more to you Than half of my heart But I can't stop loving you I can't stop loving you I can't stop loving you With half of my Half of my heart Half of my heart Half of my heart's got a real good imagination Half of my heart's got you Half of my heart's got a right mind to tell you That half of my heart won't do Half of my heart is a shotgun wedding To a bride with a paper ring And half of my heart is the part of a man Who's never truly loved anything Half of my heart

[@sabineramirez3899]

Yeeshhh

[@KishanDas-ju3np]

Those are pre Smartphone era people... When people enjoying concert and connect with the artist emotions..rather then recording the whole concert...

[@dr05guitar]

"not for your documentation of my information" haha nice

[@mikemusicman]

when the crowd start singing to the ooooooo bit that must be the greatest feeling in the world

[@N1095A]

I absolutely LOVE my Eric Clapton Stratocaster, but that Turner looks so comfortable. I'd like to get my hands one just to see how it feels. We already know how it sounds.

[@mrjb521]

This song is the story of my life !

[@shirtsguitar]

Awesome performance John ! :D

[@nickpatyk8050]

oh man you can hear hes singing through that granuloma... my whole heart goes out to that, couldnt have felt good...glad you got through that John, must have been tough

[@masteroftheobvious86]

Ugh. Such tone, in his guitar, in his voice...goddamn.

[@kapchi]

first of all, he's extremely good looking!! secondly, that dance at the beginning.... no words!!

[@Bishop4695]

amazing performance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@campb423]

Its a Rick Turner Guitar, the same guitar that Lindsay Buckingham uses from Fleetwood Mac, John also throws in a cover of "Dreams" in this song often when he plays it

[@Re.x0]

Amazing song his lyrics blow me away!!! :) amazing singer!!! :)

[@AnnaEulilia]

I looove this song

[@RastaSaiyaman]

This sounds as if it came from Fleetwood Mac's "Mirage" album. I can hear Lindsey Buckingham singing it. Note that this is no negative thing, not at all.

[@REJ2musik]

RastaSaiyaman He's using a Rick Turner, which is Lindsey's guitar, so that's partly why

[@succulentstir9907]

@@REJ2musik he used to also sing "Dreams" over the progression

[@cameronleb6508]

@@succulentstir9907 yeah i thought that to

[@RohanBahadur]

And he did, for more than an year now....

[@gregvincenavarrete8916]

lovin it!

[@dinahnascimento]

lulu, ce ta um gatinho! grrrr... miau.

[@HeartbreakerGuitars]

The model 1 sounds great in this tune. We have almost an exact match of this guitar at Heartbreaker Guitars

[@vinayakpraveen8659]

whats there to dislike? why do people press dislike for this? i dont understand

[@Neil4Speed]

@kerranz Wow, Fantastic story man! I have been lucky to see Lindsey up close twice. Those Henman's are quite pricey, probably sound amazing though!

[@branquelaaaaa]

Gosh! I'm really in love! *-*

[@daliksheppy]

Happy birthday john mayer!

[@Emmor]

i like his little shuffle at the start.

[@kerranz]

@Neil4Speed I got to watch Lindsay play from about six feet away at Fleetwood Mac's Rumours tour back in 76 or so, had no idea he was a 'Frail'er, but it does make a note sting. I have also communicated with Rick Turner about the guitars he's making for Henman these days...(I design electrics as well). He's so knowledgeable it's scary.

[@Bente684]

wish I was at this show.... Come to Europe John, a lot of people 'd like it (A)

[@senterugaming6335]

Nice Rick Turner model 1

[@aaronjordan010388]

@guitarplayer1994 that one is a solid guitar for a solid musician MAYER!

[@davidcarr90]

Still praying that slow dancing is coming up!!

[@jwizzie23]

i love the groupies at 535 thats awesome

[@roswell266]

he said half my hearts got you then said thats me ahh some personal feelings in this about himself maybe

[@SANTINOX22]

que temazo por favor----

[@augustinesoong]

i quite like the little jig john does at the start of the outro. haha.

[@Neil4Speed]

@kerranz Your memory serves you correct! I have the same guitar, wonderful instrument! John Mayer is truly talented great tune. I bought the guitar more based on Lindsey Buckingham who's style is really unqiue!

[@fenderbender28]

its surprising how taylor swift doesnt have a huge part in the song but without her it sounds quite different

[@stevejohnsen8858]

@aaronjordan010388 Robbie uses a Deusenberg Double Cat 6 guitar. John plays a Rick Turner Model 1.

[@sarahandeliserock]

the official video is up on twonderlandmusic :):) i love it

[@Cbluesrocker]

i wish it would load faster.

[@PredatorZgW]

actually i don t like this kind of music but this song makes me relax i like it

[@elizabethsantaella8842]

hola !!! creo que tu tenias un video con subtitulos en español de brad paisley - little moments like that subtitulado en español y pues me encanto la letra!! podrias volverlo a subir???? muchas gracias!!

[@koenroels4549]

What Guitar is Mayer playing on the video?

[@TenFourMusicGroup]

Lindsey Buckingham from Fleetwood Mac uses that guitar. He inspired John Mayer for this song. You see where I'm going?

[@eljefe0123]

Rick Turner M1, as Lindsey Buckingham

[@Teddy_bear155]

its a shame that john had to get a cold right before this concert so if you were wondering why it sounds less than awesome thats why. he still did it like a champ.

[@yuiitodoro7791]

Thanks for the info..was wondering about that

[@cuatro336]

Any body else notice that he bounces when the beat when he plays live? lol

[@Spearfisher1970]

@PredatorZgW Same. I can hear the Tom Petty-band influence (don't like his music too much either), but this sound and his voice seem to mix well.

[@petravanessa]

@jasonism123 yeah, it looks so...cool

[@Guedaumjija]

and he did =\ he returns to stage only on december or february...

[@JoaoAndre001]

@lastkiz13 it's hard to say that for sure =/ There are so many good players like John. For example: John Frusciante, Joe Bonamassa, Philip Sayce ( this guy is AWESOME! ), Jack White etc etc

[@bunnyy.7]

Wanna switch d lyrics den jst turn d captions on🤣

[@kerranz]

@tboladave Looks like a Rick Turner 'One', I believe Lindsey Buckingham plays this model...if memory serves , the pickup can rotate along the flat plane of the gtr's face. It sure sounds like one.

[@lucbossink]

@Danilokis11: That's a Duesenberg Double Cat.

[@auroraa606]

I know, it`s beautiful.

[@carletoncandis5977]

Alberto Pascual Rick Turner #1 model

[@CMSpida]

Does anyone know what guitar that is. THe head stock is sweet

[@guitarplayer1994]

@aaronjordan010388 It's a Duesenberg, German Company, but don't aks me for the model, I have no idea.

[@labybing]

Can somebody put the lyrics from minute 5.32 to 6.30??

[@fc7alibi]

Can somebody please explain the "half of my heart´s got a real good imagination, half of my heart´s got you" line? I can´t figure out why "it´s mean". Yeah, I know, I do feel like an idiot for asking.

[@adventureman2020]

Hes with someone, and whilst he truly loves her with half of his heart, the other part of him yearns for other people/ other things.

[@abcborgess]

indeed..

[@boz9818]

HAHAHA "I don't know" @ 4:45

[@labybing]

Can someone post the lyrics of the new part added?
