Mayer Does Timberlake

John Mayer just uploaded THIS to his YouTube account.

He took to his guitar for an interpretation of the I Think She Knows/Lovestones interlude by Justin Timberlake.

It's kinda amazing. He's able to use his guitar rhythmically and as a bass simultaneously, if that makes any sense.

Ch-ch-check it out!

    57. School Perez On Racism!! says – reply to this


      57

      Perez what the fuck man … i used to love you i love gay dudes … But you need to check back on all the hate and racism you started on your OWN site back on that BET Honors entry. Like everyone knows, blacks aren't the only ones who bring out the "wigs and weaves," but i guess that's all you see when you look at successful black women. It makes me sad, we're getting called all kinds nof monkey, nigga, jungle bunnies on YOUR site. Do you even read the comments ??? It's hurtful and fucked up and you have to be the one to refrain from shaping your blogs around race because, probably unbeknownst to you, you stir up too much racist shit.
      I feel like i'm eavesdropping on a slave block.

      great guitar player…….but isnt playing both at the same time…….records the beginning…then plays it on a loop…..kt tunstall does it for some of her songs when she is playing live……still him playing …..but just puts it on a loop and plays another part

      62

      he's using a looper pedal. he's not playing it all at once. it's like playing over a recording. except for he made that recording right before playing over it. that's all.

    63. Amanda says – reply to this


      63

      People who have only heard his songs on the radio a couple times complain that he's not good… or he can't play… etc. But if you watch any video of him on youtube playing live and ACTUALLY pay attention to his guitar skills - you will be proven wrong.

      Would originality kill this guy?

      He spends the better part of his career ripping off stevie ray vaughn.. now i guess he figured he should start ripping eric johnson too?

      C'mon john.. where is YOUR sound on guitar? You certainly have "your style" vocally.. but on guitar you just sound like a srv/ej clone.

      Not a John Mayer fan in any way what-so-ever, but if he did more stuff like this I could become one. You can't deny the talent that guy has. So why does he sing and play such lame sucky music?

      silly idiots… he is using a loop pedal, not playing that shit at the same time!!!

    75. wackoperez says – reply to this


      75

      "He's able to use his guitar rhythmically and as a bass simultaneously, if that makes any sense" .. no you fucking moron that doesn't make any sense at all, he's just using a delay loop to repeat the first few bars he plays (you can hear him click with his foot when he wants the pedal to repeat the intro over and over) and then he plays stuff over it, obviously don't know what you're talking about but that is not surprising considering the fact that you're obsessed with stupid shit like victoria beckham, movie celebrities, transexuality, hair color, makeup and mainstream tween music

    76. candy says – reply to this


      76

      it's really not that amazing. the bass and guitar at the same time, it's just a type of guitar pedal, but it is a pretty good cover.

      John is a great guitar player. He plays with SOUL.
      .
      BUT…. on this video I'm gonna have to go ahead and sorta disagree with him on something…
      .
      .
      John……buddy…… An ES-335 is NOT a finger-picking guitar! If you wanna fingerpick, use one of your Tele's or a strat. An ES–335 was MEANT to be played with a PICK!
      .
      You are holding that guitar back by fingerpicking it, brother.
      .
      Regardless, it still sounds awesome.

      he's not playing it simultaneously perez, it's called an effect pedal.

      That was sick…i honestly don't know why everyone is so down on mayer…overexposure maybe? his blog (from what perez has posted) is entertaining and he usually has something relevant to say(none of that "me, myself and i" writing a lot of stars have) not bad mayer…not bad at all ;)

      The first riff is on a loop- it was recorded the first time he played it. So in actuality, the second riff is played with a recording of the first. He's not actually playing these at the same time……..but he is still amazing- don't get me wrong.

    100. Loves it! says – reply to this


      100

      AMAZING. He is an extremely talented guitarist. I've never been a huge fan of his music except the "Your Body is a Wonderland" song, but this is pretty effin cool!! I wanted to turn the lights out and raise up a lighter. =)
