What a legendary combo!! Tommy doing muted notes for 30 seconds, showing he's all about serving the song and not about "the spotlight". Absolute master!
This is what gets me every time I see Tommy playing with anybody. Truly one of the greats, we can all learn a lot from just that bit!
He perfectly compliments anyone he is playing with
So inspiring!
Tommy, Mike, Rick and John
I count 4 legends
It didn’t work
This shows how exceptional John Mayer’s song writing ability truely is.
The dude is a mean guitar player and makes lovely songs. Can't knock Mayers skills
@@wavewithus4081 And the thing is that he made it with just 3 simple chords so everyone can play along with it. He even mentioned on one of his interviews that he doesnt just want people to play Gravity or Slow dancing, he wants people to understand how he plays it and create their own stuff when playing along.
@@jumblejumbo He's not a household name, I'll give you that. But with all due respect to him and his massive talent, I say this as a fan: he is extremely overrated in the guitar community. Modern guitar players study his music exclusively to a fault. I've had numerous guitar students who think he's the only guitar player to have ever lived. 😂 And again, I love his music and playing.
@@RoyalBlue43 Eric Clapton says in an interview, that John doesn’t understand how good a guitar player he is. I think that says it all. Over rated? Hell no
@@TH-cam_user3333 clapton is over rated as well. they're both mediocre at best.
2:27 Tommy thought they were back to the intro part, but saw it was time for a solo and instantly pulled back for Mike to have his spot. That's how everyone should play when they play with others
Nice observation. You’re right 😁
The speed... I mean the time it took it him to realise he was going the wrong way. That's more of a reflex than a decision 😅 man, Tommy is marvelous
To think that Tommy Emmanuel is improvising is so mind blowing.
That is the thing which is so remarkable. TE makes such good improv' it sounds like a worthy composition in itself. Apparently he does not take much time at all to come up with his part, while MD already has the song down.
Yeah
I don't know if I'm inspired to practice more, or just sell all my gear... 😂 These two are otherworldly
Practice more, brother..
It’s attainable!
My thoughts EXACTLY. Just when I thought I was getting good...I had to watch this.
@@UTAH100 there's no limit on progression... you even surpass your own imagination...So practice , practice, practice
Compare yourself to yourself not to others 👍
mom said it's my turn to post this comment next
How amazing is it to see Tommy Emmanuel playing John Mayer's song.
Really amazing.
Totally agree
Mayer’s songwriting skills are criminally underrated
I don't think so I'd say he is not only famous but also recognized as both a great guitarist and songwriter.
@@natalirivero467100%
very overrated
@@lx4302sure, keep smoking what ur smoking. U want to talk about overrated? Shawn mendes, Billy Eilish, Taylor Swift, etc. Mayer is beyond almost every mainstream talent we have today in both his songwriting and musicianship. Mayer is WAYYY Underrated! He revolutionized the music world by his unique blend of genres and his ability to relate to numerous audiences. You really do not realize how lucky you are to have witnessed such an (unrecognized) legend!
@@mram03 lmfao. no need to bring other artists down just to prop someone up. I wouldn't even call myself a fan of these artists, including Mayer and especially not Swift. I just fuck with a few of their songs. But you can't talk down on Swift's songwriting, influence in the (mainstream) music industry and her impact on so many young people
I love how Tommy plays notes that simply accompany the song and aid to it while not trying to steal the show. This was so fucking cool.
that's the opposite of what he does. He's an egotistical showman.
@@Tasmanaut I find it impressive what he can do but I agree for the most part. Never really enjoyed listening to him because of how flashy it is. Usually doesn’t sound that good but is super technical
@@Tasmanaut I'll keep an eye out for your version of this performance to learn.
@@Tasmanaut Try to listen. You don't watch music. And yes, he is in fact a showman. These guys are putting on a free show for us. And you whine about it.
@@tommylitchfield3450 if you shut your eyes and listen, it just sounds like random wa*k. Because it is. It is the reason I'm not impressed with him and never will be.
It must be very flattering, even to someone of Mayer's stature, to have these 2 cats playing his song. I hope he sees this video.
Don't count on it. With his massive ego, he has probably already consulted counsel to explore options for litigation. No joke.
@@UTAH100 You don't know Mayer that well I'd assume
@@GoinMLG I do know enough people like him. I also don't know Mike Tyson either but suffice it to say, I would not want to box him. Your logic makes little sense. I suggest you stick to playing your video games.
Owned
@@UTAH100 I guess when you're a baby boomer you don't realise that someone in their 20s can change by their 40s. John probably still has an ego as anyone with his status and skill should have however, he has definitely changed to be a more respectful and modest person. And if you disagree with that you simply haven't spent time looking.
I’m amazed how Tommy plays his own brilliant parts while not stepping on the lead melody at all. Awesome.
This is what shows his true mastery. It’s insanity to see
Dawes kind of acknowledges TE magic improv' but it was hard to hear his words.
Tommy is a consummate professional of the highest order.
Actually he’s only stepping all over the song with every annoying note he plays.
@@z-ray-dadbod lol annoying notes hahaha why would you listen if you find TE annoying and don’t appreciate his amazing musicianship
It's such a clear sign of a master when they're playing for what fits the song arrangement and not worrying about being in the spotlight. Tommy is such a gift to the music industry in so many ways, and I will be truly saddened when that man passes.
Agreed. Let's hope it's a long, long time from now. His brother Phil left us far too soon.
heyehey wooooahhhh there. he is still around - go see him live while you can and get inspired
How do they get so good in guitar? I‘m envy
He will never pass. He'd be remembered.Always.
@@drewjamila3868Practice all day every day. It’s simple but very hard.
I wonder if John has seen this. I truly believe this is the best cover of anything ever. Its really magical. I bet it would even give John the shivers. !
Thanks for sharing Rick. Lots of love everyone. Looking forward to some tours with Tommy in the EU and USA coming up x
This is so very beautiful...💗💗💗
I love you Mike
Wow...you both gel so well together, it blows me away.
What a load of beans
Thank you shaggy
That was incredible. Dude pulled a mandolin out of his guitar lol
Yeah.. he actually pulls anything out of this box!
Watch a video of him playing Jolly Swagman...he straight up pulls out bagpipes! Out of his guitar. Crazy lol.
Fucking hell, I'm choking in laughter over here. 😂🥃 Well said!
I have had the ultimate pleasure of working with Tommy many years in Scotland when i was an music Tech student. he's a gem of a man and a phenomenal musician i will always remember after his gig he joined a local bunch of lads playing in the pub and he improved with them as they played "Drive" by Incubus. it was and still remains to be one of the single best musical experiences of my life. He played amazingly and at the same time didn't try to outshine the band or steal the limelight away from the young guys playing. Thankyou Tommy for being you.
my wife: ,,the right one looks like the Shaggy from the Scooby-Doo"
That's Shaggy's grandson
😂😂😂😂😂
He surely does
The mark of a great musician is not how much he stands out in a song but how he makes that song better.
But did he?
Yes
The song has morphed into a flowing river, with the notes ebbing, cascading and peaking, creating a beautiful soundscape
That bit, right at the end when Tommy outs his hand out, as if to capture the soundwaves as they flow away from him...
🧀
If you don’t like this duet, you don’t belong in music. Masters of their craft.
The part where he's playing muted notes makes my butt pucker in a bad way.
I didn't know Tommy, but frankly I'm speechless, he plays with such wisdom and respect. He knows exactly what to do and when. The timing of his phrases is perfect.
You didn't know Tommy Emmanuel. I stop living.
This must be what it is like to have nothing left to prove... relaxed, beautiful, and perfect.
Makes you realize what a hell of a musician Mayer is
Every guitarists' dream to master the fretboard like Tommy 🤟
The increasing respect given to John Mayer puts a huge smile on my face. Been 💯 fan since day one. Thank you Mike and Tommy! Great jam session!
John's expansive lead work with Dead & Co nigh on five years has truly expanded his blues based sound and gone into that psychedelic realm.
Two masters of their generations - digging on each other’s playing!
you know you've written a good song when legends love to play it.
The chord Tommy plays at the 1 minute mark. Stunning
What a great rendition of one of my favourite tunes
Thank you 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👍🏽👀🌈⭐️🙏
the two guitars compliment each other very well. good arrangement. and very musical... you can tell both have mastered their instruments to the point where they can just feel the song and not worry about hitting certain notes
The shear beauty and joy of playing a note, and knowing that someone else will be joining you at just the right moment with another note. 👊🏻🔥😎
👊🥳
If you are jamming a key or a scale it's easier than you might think. It's called chord chasing. Verses repeat and you can hear it in your head. They also likely missed several "right moments" but landed on a few that sounded sweet. Not all pieces fit into a specific key either which is why you need to know the chord and melody structure. This one is pretty easy to know where to land. Take a band like Metallica with 140bpm, changing key and time signatures and it gets more challenging- but still fun. Too much info., I know- just sharing. I play guitar (not like this) and like to hear myself talk. 😎
@@UTAH100
I believe he was more talking about having such amazing synergy with those you play with. That was how I took it, but I could be wrong.
Something amazing about being so tight and in tune 🤙
@@samblack5313 I agree with you. I was just expanding on that and sharing how anyone can enjoy the same amazing synergy. I use to marvel at it- then I learned to play and still marvel at it.
I recently played with some random guy at my local Guitar Center- he was new to playing and we were trying out some guitars. I had him play a few specific chords in order (the chorus to ALIVE by Pearl Jam.) I then soloed over it in Em. His face lit up like he never heard anything so magical and raw. When it was over, he was smiling ear to hear. He then asked me, "Can we do that again- only this time I want to record it!" Of course, I said YES! Music, being allowed to play and share it is an amazing gift.
Cheers!
@@UTAH100
That’s cool as, man. I get it. All I was saying is there’s something even more special about it when it’s someone you’ve played with a lot and can basically read each other’s minds.
Shred on 🤙
Tommy Emmanuel playing JM song has to be JM’s top 10 best bragging rights of all time. And an absolute pleasure for us fans to see the acoustic guitar grand master playing one of my favorite singer songwriter’s songs of my time 👏
I've been lucky to have seen Tommy live on two occasions. Each time in a cozy, intimate, folky venue to around 50 people. In the intermission he walked past and out of nowhere cracked a joke to my late father, because he'd spotted how much my Dad was in awe of the show whilst he was playing. Tommy's an extraordinary talent and just a lovely person all around.
Such great arranging and complementary playing.
Rick you sneaky devil hiding this gold from us for so long. Thank you sir
Wow. Two of my favorite players. Never thought I’d hear Tommy E play John Mayer.
John has to be incredibly honored to have these two cover his song.
Daaaaaaaaaamn... This is so beautiful. Wow!!!!!
Oh man, Tommy is just on whole another level, serving the music, letting it pour through him. The musicianship has nothing to do with it, just pure love for the music. Thank you.
facts
Dats da fax Jack!!
I listen to this amazing performance on my knees....
Hearing Tommy Emmanuel play is a heavenly treat...
I think even John Mayer is envious of this rendition!!!
Doubt it. To vain.
@@UTAH100 Judging from your replies here someone really peed in your cornflakes this morning 😄
@@UTAH100 you got issues dude lol
Two legends playing another legends song, posted by legendary-good-song-loving uncle Rick Beato❤️
Listening to it for the 100th time feels still the same.
Masterpiece 🙌🏻❤❤
Tommy demonstrating once again that he is not just a brilliant soloist but a brilliant accompanist
I got excited when I saw this notification because I thought it was a What Makes This Song Great, but this didn't disappoint, absolutely beautiful playing, luscious full arrangement of one of my favourite songs of all time. Bravo!
What makes this song great is Mike Dawes and Tommy Emmanuel lol. Enough said!
This should be Rick Beatos next WMTSG
Such a beautiful sound made by these great masters of the guitar...! ❤️❤️❤️
Ashamed to say that I’ve been a Tommy fan for 8 years and a John fan for longer, and have just now stumbled across this. Truly magical.
John should feel honored these guys played this song like that
Probably the best guitar playing I’ve ever seen
There is love in the playing, genuine love for music, and the guitar
Random click. I have no idea who this was until tonight. I’ve replayed this for an hour plus now. I don’t listen to music like this. I was so moved. I must follow this man
this is the power of mayer songs, literally no one can deny he’s the best musician and finest guitarist of this generation……
3 chords and heaven is here 🎸🤟🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
Hearing this beautiful duet just made my day. Life is good. Thanks for sharing, Rick.
Now you get out there and PLAY Burke. Hearing is great, playing is on another level.
You sure couldn’t ever accuse either of them of not feeling the groove. Beautiful collaboration again…
What an absolute joy Tommy is..
KING 👑
Is there anyone as natural on a guitar as Tommy and makes it look soo easy when it’s soo not
Amazing skill. I remember when I saw Tommy Emmanuel in Dartford, Britain. As the sweet sweet licks and the closed-eyed head shaking went on, the PA speakers began to edge forwards because of the rumbling of the bass. Had to get outta there before it fell and landed on my legs.
Tommy is a beautiful musician!
...Tommy looks so at ease every time he plays. You can tell he's genuinely just having fun.
You know there are legends playing when you just get lost in the sounds.
I love Tommy’s epiphone.great,great music
Two of the best guitarist in the world
Otherworldly performance! I’m absolutely speechless, the way Tommy accompanied Mike, his solo, everything was just perfect!
This song was already one of the most beautiful I know from my other favorite, Mayer. This is beyond perfection
Hard to discribe to non musician's the sheer bliss of the coversation of music,the flow of two great musicians giving each other space yet
Coheasive enough to have a singular soul to the music , bravo beautiful work
Awesome! This is a lesson in basic guitar! Now, all I have to do is practice for the next 800 years!
not much basic about it.
It's a more of a lesson in genetics. Even an infinity wouldn't be long enough to practice.
The joy in their playing is magical to watch.
I could listen to them do this for at least an hour and not get bored.
Love how closely Tommy is watching Mike’s hands, he’s truly tying to support the song
You hit it out of the park with this and the interview with Tommy, Rick. Thank you! -Gene
Tommy and Mike in guitar heaven, just fantastic haha 😃👏
Changed my mind about the original. Don't misconstrue: the original is great; however, when I want to listen in, I'm coming right here. This, here, is spectacular!
Yeah
lovely to see Tommy who doesn't know the song at all and despite that, he's able to make a fantastic job! (obviously)
2:07 Except the fact that I love the whole arrangement - that harmony is so awesome!
I’m sure John would have a blast hearing this. Beautiful acoustic work as usual Mr Emmanuel !
I hope Mayer sees this. What a treat it must be to see two guitar gods cover your song.
Tommy is the poet and Mike the mathematician .Great chemistry !!!
Chills… and more chills.
How wonderful a tribute. Im always amazed at Tommy and his choices he makes surprises me, its rare to see both mental and physical acuity at that level, its just a real treat. A+
John Mayer sips red wine and watches these legends play his masterpiece
Now I have to play this in loop the whole night!
Outstanding…one of my favourite things is when two or more players simply do their thing sympatica, and these guys do. Gorgeous.
Incredible performance❤
Clicked on comment, in an attempt to say something and trying my level best to do that. But literally tongue tied. This is beyond amazing.
two of favorites guitar players...🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Watching and listening to these 2 guys - I spend so much time checking out guitar gear, seeking to satisfy my GAS and I realise time would be much better spent practising. 2 acoustics plugged in, a touch of reverb - and amazing tone coming from their fingers and souls!! Aural bliss
I haven’t listened to a song that made me smile like this one did in a long time. It’s more fun and easier to listen to than the original, and I like the original.
I saw the two of them live in Switzerland a couple of days ago. One of the best and most entertaining shows I've ever been to. And the music was of course breathtaking.
I will be watching this video over and over. So awesome!
Speechless 😶👏👏👏👏👏👏👏thanks for sharing this amazing collaboration 👏👏👏👏
I’m in tears, what a masterpiece
That was incredible!!! I could listen and watch all day.
Incredible!!!!! Stunning!!!
Thanks to two legends!
How did I miss this one. Simply wonderful.
I cannot stop listening to this! Absolutely beautiful!
My mind - blown - thank you x
YEAH BUDDY!!
Fantastic 👏
It's just too good, I can't even look directly into this level of musicianship.
So amazing! Such a treat!
