this is just like... hey, I learnt all these chords I never use... how about I put them all in one brilliantly constructed, lyrically clever, witty, but also emotional and personal song, with a sound world that melds perfectly with the subject matter... then put it as the last track on RFS as just a rare tune. Skills.

This is probably John Mayer's most underrated song. But it's also my favorite, and the one that touched my heart the most in the Room of Squares album. It's tone was so separate from the others, so I think this must hold a special meaning for him. When I think of his songs, this for me still ranks the best.

We also seem to forget to give credit to his bassist in Room For Squares, and in a few other live and studio albums, David LaBruyere. RFS wouldn’t be the album it turned out to be if it wasn’t for DaLa on bass. That dude added sooo much color, flavor, and feel to the entire RFS album. 🔥
@nintendonut1002 жыл бұрын
It's easy to underrate him, when Mayer's other guitarist is Pino blummin' Palladino, but LaBruyere is a killer bass player in his own right.

And we'll both be safe 'til St. Patrrick's Day We should take a ride tonight around the town And look around at all the beautiful houses Something in the way that blue lights on a black night Can make you feel more Everybody, it seems to me, just wants to be Just like you and me No one wants to be alone at Christmas time Come January, we're frozen inside Making new resolutions a hundred times February, won't you be my valentine?
