I swear that riff could cure cancer

People always think of John as a master guitar player, but he's such a poet as well. His lyrics are mindblowingly good, total mindfulness.

By far John Mayer's best song....the writing, the guitar solo....it's like silk. Perfection!

its so sad when you realize a relationship is dying and there is nothing you can do to stop it.
@jaysonseoul2684
Anyone who plays a guitar cannot help but appreciate the artistry.
@TheBrookea2000
I am completely and utterly OBSESSED with this song. So beautiful.

This is one of the greatest albums of all time. John Mayer is a legend

I know a lot of people attribute this song to a relationship they're in or used to be in, but for me this song hits a bit deeper because it reminds me of the relationship between my mom and dad. I'm 21 year old adult now, but way back when, I could sense the relationship between them deteriorating when I was just in middle school. Whenever they would get into a argument or our family would be in a bad spot, my dad would do whatever he could to make the best of the situation and my mom would constantly push his buttons and demean him, and it would start getting to a point where even though he loved her, my dad would lose any hope he had left in their relationship. He still tried best as he could though. Some days even when he'd get home tired from work, he'd immediately have to deal with my mom bitching at him and he'd just have to take it to not start any arguments. Even so, I could still see where my mom was coming from, my dad was a bit hard-headed and stubborn, so he could also sometimes be a pain to deal with. His love was a more traditional tough-love type and he'd often had a hard time getting his emotions/intentions across even if his heart was in the right place, so his concern would often be misunderstood as anger/confrontation by my mom and my siblings, even myself, when he talked with us at times. The little things he did that unknowingly irritated her would build up and she would blow up at him, prompting him to blow up at her. Seeing them become so hostile with one another over the years hurt me and my siblings so much, but it had gotten to the point where we'd become numb to the hurt and it simply become the norm. What hurt the most was how much we'd loved them both despite their anger at each other. My dad was always our rock in hard times, whenever we'd get sad or lose motivation/happiness he'd always try to cheer us up and give us as much of his love as he could. My mom was a hard worker and a very, very compassionate and wise woman, she could always read our feelings and give us her advice as we needed it. We needed them both in our lives, but they wanted to push each other out of the way. Seeing my two beloved parents treat each other in such a way broke me, and is still continuing to break my brother and sister who are still living at home. If there are any of you who are planning on or have already become parents and are in a rough spot right now, I implore you to make amends and talk to each other or at least acknowledge and accept each others differences now to stop your children from having to go through what I had to go through. You may be hurting on the inside, but your kids will will take more damage than yourselves seeing you two go through such a thing.

You can feel the heat slowly consuming your body. You wanna save yourself but you're too caught up in their love to move. Beautiful song.
@ozzman1997
Even being a metalhead, I still love this song.
@theJourneynfc
One of the best songs ever written. So simple. So perfect
@yiftach2949
John Mayer has 2 main audiences: teenage girls and 40-year-old guitarists
@ProcashFloyd
This truly is one of the best songs ever written, Still listening to it. God knows after how many years. After every passing year you appreciate John more and more.

I know everyone always talk about the mid solo and while it is certainly one of his best, I have a deep love for the outro in the studio version. Never has a guitar cried more than from 3:10 to 3:35 That entire part is like lightning in a bottle to me. No musician has ever captured the absolute despair of losing someone you love in a relationship quite like this. You can HEAR the fire that's tearing them apart. This song is played on Instagram every day and there is a reason for that. I've watched literal hundreds of live performances on YouTube and yet I never tire of it. No piece of music has ever moved or inspired me more than this. Any guitar player will instantly understand why this song is so incredibly masterful. Nothing I have ever heard has made this much sense to me. I connect with this song on an artistic level, on a musical level and most importantly on a human level. John's music is the greatest friend and the greatest companion in life I could have ever hoped for and will be a part of it until it's over. I get everything he's trying to tell me all the time. There is hardly a song of his that I don't appreciate and connect with. I am incredibly grateful for theft that John and his music found me so early in my life (I'm 19 years old as of now) and I can't wait for what this incredible human being will put out there next. Thank you for coming to my TED talk :) (To whoever reads this I hope you're doing okay and are enjoying life to the best of your ability. Be safe and be kind.)

One of the most underrated blues guitarists/artists of all time. Long live blues to get you through the hard times!! Thank you Mr. Mayer for one of my fav blues songs of all time.

I see all the people who disliked this like fast dancing in a frozen room
@me0101001000
There's a special kind of heartbreak when you love someone, they love you back. No matter how great the chemistry is, no matter how perfect everything seems, there are those few things that just cause it to fall apart. It's no one's fault, no one did anything wrong, it just didn't work.
@logany37
John Mayer doesn't make bad songs. Every song on this album is great
@Cafp81654
My favorite song he has ever done ..
