shatterd10th April 2010Why didn't you include the vocals on the backing track?
Also, can we do this with a pick instead of finger style?

kaznie_NL6th April 2010Very good tuition Marius! Singing was very nice as well
cool riff man!
Frederik6th April 2010Nice singing. I think john is playing the verse with a "flick and slap technique" so there is more slapping. but really nice lesson of a cool song
Alexiaden936th April 2010I was thinking "how did he make a backing with John's voice" and then remembered the YouTube comment stating that you are singing... xD Incredible voice and smooth playing man

Hy guys and welcome to my new lesson. In this lesson I will try to teach you one of John Mayer's best songs.
First of all, I have to say that this song is not what it seems :) Is in the same time easier and harder that it seems. Getting the notes right is not that hard but getting the right balance AND singing the vocals in the same time is quite hard.
I won't get very technical about this lesson, you can find everything you need in the spoken video.
The structure of the song is quite simple: (verse-bridge-chorus)-repeat, you will get it for sure after listening the song once.
There are a couple of variation on John Mayer's original that I intentionally left out to keep the lesson easy and compact and because I wanted to focus on the alternative technique he is using in the verse section - is what makes this song special.
Enjoy practicing!
