I generally like John Mayer, but this song really doesn't grab my attention. It'd make great background music I guess.

it's got a nice vibe

I'm not into country usually but this was good.

At first I wasn't completely sold on the alt-country direction he wanted to take with this album (I prefer his bluesier side), but if this song is any indication of the tracks still to come, then I'll be perfectly content.

sounds pretty good. that acoustic breakdown beats the electric solo. can't wait for this album.

Really underwhelmed. Signed, a huge John Mayer fan.

Well no Chicago date looks like a road trip is in my future. Also the single is amazing but then again John never lets down

hey now, pretty solid track.

Have listened through all his records since hearing the single: guy hasn't made an album that's any less than great, and a few are all time favorites for me. Can't wait for this.

its country but i like it

live. 02/27/12 10:05 PM

The man never disappoints. His tour dates even coincide with my school/home schedule. Pretty much every tour I've wanted to catch over the last couple years has had a funny way of fucking that up.

SO good. what a genius.

itslillers 02/27/12 10:22 PM

I like it! But not in love...come on John Mayer!

AussieBoy 02/27/12 10:52 PM

not as stoked as with say Heartbreak or Assassin from last album, but Who Says wasnt my fave either
soooo chuffed to have some Johnny back, still a riper tune!!

Johnny Depp look is odd

So stoked. Into the song, and definitely will be getting tickets to the Providence show.

Love it, not surprised.

Feel the same way, only I adore this. Have you heard the live version for Born and Raised? Sounds great. I do hope there's a "big" tune on the record though, like Heartbreak.

Love it! But of course I do. Its fucking John Msyer

Dirge07 02/28/12 02:22 PM

Oh John, you've done it again...

chunkymunky182 02/28/12 04:06 PM

This song is fucking incredible! Can not wait for this record

Eh, I wasn't bowled over by any of Battle Studies when I first heard it and I'm definitely not bowled over by this. But I eventually fell in love with Battle Studies and hopefully the same will happen with this album.

Anyway, this song is pretty bland apart from the vocal-less bridge--I liked that part.

Oh yeah, and he totally rips his former vocals for that guitar melody...
