"I've been talking to myself just to hear you, and you're saying every thing I wished you would." This line is so sadly relatable it makes me want to cry.
Yup, Mr Mayer can crush you with such revealing lyrics accompanied with melancholy melodies. My eyes welled the first 50 times I listened to this song...
So many artists lately make it so difficult to listen to access/listen to their music online. Mayer, on the other hand, puts all of his audio tracks on youtube the day Wave 2 is released. You can tell this guy is really all about the music: creating and making sure his art is accessible to as many people as he can. Gotta love Mayer.
His songs are multi-peeled. Every time you listen to the same song, each new time one peel comes off and reveals a whole new element. The liking increases exponentially. May God give him a long life!
hence why he said 'heartbreak' instead of 'breakup' :) a heartbreak can have so many reasons behind it. Stop This Train often has broken my heart, in a positive way, I think
This is the classic example of "don't judge a book by it's cover" . I saw the title and thought wow how dumb, but it's one of the best songs he's ever written. The vocals and harmonies are incredible. Thanks J
Broooo seriously same. I avoided this song, maybe even this album when I saw he had a saw with emoji in the title. Now one of my favorite John Mayer songs ever
Wow, did not know that about Al, but just thinking the other day how this chorus reminded me of everything I love about the Beach Boys...makes total sense. JM did it again. Love. it.
I vividly remember hearing this song mid 2019 with my ex. We both knew our relationship was about to come to an end and as the song continued we held each other’s hand that much tighter. It was just a wave, and all we could do was hold onto one another as long as we could. It’s hard to hear this song but it sure does bring great memories that I’ll hold onto forever..
Frick, that nearly made me cry. I hate breaking up so much I have been single for close to 10 years. That was a good reminder why I will be 10 more lol xx
This song is insane. I spent my entire night going through my death metal/grind playlists for a friend... and then in the morning I was made aware that John had released Wave 2... This song blew me entirely away on first listen, the whole EP did... And then I listened a second time about a half an hour later and it made me cry. Beautiful doesn't describe it.
Oh honey You don't have to try so hard To hurt me Don't worry I been thinking bout you too What do we do [Pre-Chorus] Your heart is where my head should be The dissonance is killing me It breaks my heart It breaks my heart [Chorus] Oh honey Oh honey It's just a wave It's just a wave And I know That when it comes I just hold on I just hold on [Verse 2] Oh honey I been talking to myself Just to hear you And you're saying Everything I wish you would And it's so good [Pre-Chorus] It's raining on the mission bell They're draining out the wishing well It breaks my heart It breaks my heart [Chorus] Oh honey Oh honey It's just a wave It's just a wave And I know That when it comes I just hold on I just hold on [Bridge] I rose on you like morning light In shuttered dream we'll sleep at night It breaks my heart It takes all the love I have to say I know we're gonna be ok It breaks my heart It breaks my heart [Chorus] Oh honey Oh honey It's just a wave It's just a wave And I know That when it comes I just hold on Until it's gone
'The Search For Everything' is sooo appropriately titled... All I can think about is 'Heavier Things' and 'Battle Studies'. The man literally put all the elements of every album he's done onto this project. Gotta feeling it might become my favorite work from him
Had my first baby at home and this song was on the playlist I created and I remember exactly the moment it played… “it’s just a wave, and I know that when it comes, I just hold on until it’s gone” and it got me through one of the hardest contractions. I am in labor again today, 2 years later and listening to it over and over again ❤️ I’m ready to meet my new baby. This time my heart is where it’s supposed to be ❤️
Emoji Of A Wave is THE heart break ballad. John told ROLLING STONE : "Never been writing and crying at same time". Been trying to write this song for the longest time. ( Got to be hard to resist a lyricist )
Absolute perfection. The music, the words, the feeling it conjures, the harmonies, the arrangement, the guitar playing, the vocal, the mix. Sheer perfection. Thank you, John. Please release an EP every month!
I lost my husband 3 weeks ago. We were separated for a while. But I keep remembering the good times. This song describes exactly how I feel right now. The waves of grief
that sweet sadness + 'oh honey' + perfectly fitting drums + those harmonies = this may be my favorite JM song ever. Makes me smile even though it's a sad song because it is so. well. done.💜
when I first listened to this song (by accident, my phone just shuffled to it while I listened to his essentials), I thought: what a weird song title. and like almost every single song of John's, it pulls me IN and IN and even more IN again. I have listened to this about 30 times since yesterday. It's stuck in my head... the first times I "got it", I cried really hard. now, I feel at peace. the way he arranged this song gives me goosebumps and fills my heart with love. It's like the sweetest lullaby you never wanna stop listening to. while he clearly expresses pain, it's oh so soothing. this song feels like a hug. a 4 minute hug.
What a gorgeous melody. And who could've known that fingerstyle guitar with a solo would go so perfectly with orchestral strings and drums. So atmospheric it's amazing.
Oh honey You don't have to try so hard To hurt me Don't worry I been thinking bout you too What do we do Your heart is where my head should be The dissonance is killing me It breaks my heart It breaks my heart Oh honey Oh honey It's just a wave It's just a wave And I know That when it comes I just hold on I just hold on Oh honey I been talking to myself Just to hear you And you're saying Everything I wish you would And it's so good It's raining on the mission bell They're draining out the wishing well It breaks my heart It breaks my heart Oh honey Oh honey It's just a wave It's just a wave And I know That when it comes I just hold on I just hold on I rose on you like morning light In shuttered dream we'll sleep at night It breaks my heart It takes all the love I have to say I know we're gonna be ok It breaks my heart It breaks my heart Oh honey Oh honey It's just a wave It's just a wave And I know That when it comes I just hold on Until it's gone
his song writing is off the hook. these words are so profound. it is to me about depression and it hits you like a wave until its over and he just holds on. i love you John. you are so awesome...
Sadly John Mayer is the last link between the classic music we grew up with in the 70/80s and present day,, the last of the great song writers so cherish him for as long as we can,,, and is this song not a prime example of dreamy harmony rich acoustic wonder, wow I better shut up lol x
Tão emocionante poder acompanhar o lançamento dessas canções tão perfeitas. Ele consegue se superar a cada álbum. Quem curte o John é sempre presenteado com seu talento ímpar.
I know Katy know is happy with her family. But i was just thinking, imagine how powerful they will be when they have their own children and compose songs about like how grateful they are. Something like that 🥺💔
This song live was just as beautiful as you imagine it would be. I had never heard it before...and was mesmorized. It brought tears to my eyes. John is a powerful musician and performer.
Extra glad. Personally don't like "emoji" being in the name of the song. Same with "Dear Marie. For some reason when he says, I go looking for your photograph online, bugs the crap out of me. A bit cheesy.
This is honestly my favorite track he's released in his series of 'waves'. Beautiful guitar voicing with meaningful lyrics. Can't wait to hear the rest of the album.
I like that he has brought the production back. Crisp vocals with layers. Sweet tones. It's a step back up to a straighter pop edge. Very honest sounding music.
I'm doing a tattoo of this song. I always think about "The Great Wave off Kanagawa" by Hokusawa whenever I hear this and this painting speaks volumes to me
A beautiful masterpiece. A man being okay with knowing his woman has waves of emotions coming and he's willing to hold on for her. At least that's how I see it.
Emoji of a wave...Emoji of a song!! This has to be my favourite song of wave 2 and just from what has been released. Can you imagine this being played lived. Pure music to the ears. I hope this is played on tour ❤❤
Three years ago I forgot to pay my electricity bill for 6 months and when it got shut off I stood in the dark staring out the window into the rain listening to this feeling stupid and sorry for myself. I then went out dancing with my friends that night anyways. Youth. Some reflection, mostly chaos.
"It takes all the love I have to say I know we're gonna be okay. It breaks my heart..." 💔 Love you John, despite of all the sad, painful memories that come back to my mind like a wave every time I listen to your music. 🌊
Honestly, the lyrics can go either way Summer. No wrong answer. I gravitate to the ocean wave but I feel like the hand wave has more deeper meaning. It holds a moment in time where that person's hand gesture in the wave sets off a flashback or flood of emotion that makes the song. Like a wave (either one) it comes and goes so quick, but you are left with the feeling.
When I read the lyrics it reminds of me and my girlfriend having misunderstandings or we both have bad days but "I still hold on until it's gone" it's just a wave. Speaks a lot for me knowing that everything will be alright with the two of us. Thanks John you always have these kind of songs that so relatable and inspire us in love, life and everything. ;)
This bitterwseet song is my soothing pacifier for having just ended a relationship with a dear man who struggles with alcohol abuse. I hope he realizes that he has a problem beyond his own abilities and that he reaches out to the proper people for help.
Idk but for me all his songs isn't just all about telling me what he experienced, he is also making me feel as if I also experienced it even when I didn't. I find it so selfless for an artist to be able to that! My tears just keep on falling.
Your concert in Amsterdam tonight was so good... unbelievable. Youre the reincarnation of Jimi Hendrix if you ask me. Now listening to this gorgeous song and reminiscing over a tumbler of whiskey. Life's good
If the background vocals sound beach boy-ish to you, then that's beacuse he got original beach boy member al jardine and his son to do them. Pretty cool :)
To hear some great songs by Al, listen to Lookin' At Tomorrow or Winds of Change by The Beach Boys! He also did lead vocals for Help Me, Rhonda and their cover of California Dreamin'!
Welcome back John Mayer! This is the kind of music that captured my imagination years and years ago! Absolutely love these tracks that have been coming out!!!
I think John concern more about telling the world that good music still exist. he make his song so accessible on youtube so people can hear easily, when the other musician try so hard to dig money from online song. John just want people to hear him and his masterpiece. What a man..
"I've been talking to myself just to hear you, and you're saying every thing I wished you would." This line is so sadly relatable it makes me want to cry.
JohnOosterMusic exactly. 💜
Me too but it makes me not feel so alone at the same time.

@@jamalsag7812 word 😊
Loved it. So beautiful
So many artists lately make it so difficult to listen to access/listen to their music online. Mayer, on the other hand, puts all of his audio tracks on youtube the day Wave 2 is released. You can tell this guy is really all about the music: creating and making sure his art is accessible to as many people as he can. Gotta love Mayer.
The big difference is John is an outstanding LIVE experience. And he and his boys will sell out venues to the guitar heavy Jam fans.
But after listening on TH-cam i had to buy the album 😍 it's so good.
Is that you John?!
emojiofawave Some people are poor even though they are rich. They can have millions and still be nasty and miserable.
the ticket price is damn expensive tho
His songs are multi-peeled. Every time you listen to the same song, each new time one peel comes off and reveals a whole new element. The liking increases exponentially. May God give him a long life!
Mohak Sharda this is so true
Mohak Sharda that is a very accurate description of John's song writing style
Can't agree with you more
This goes for EVERY one of his albums for me. His music literally changed my life.
Please!!!
I agree with you, but something about the saying “multi-peeled” makes me laugh
stop this train, heart of life & emoji of a wave triple combo heartbreak
I think Dreaming with a Broken heart would be more fitting for a breakup but Stop This Train works to some extent as well
ogiewoogie ....how bout, Comfortable, Not myself, Split Screen sadness, Stop this train, Heartbreak warfare, Edge of Desire, Emoji of a wave...
hence why he said 'heartbreak' instead of 'breakup' :)
a heartbreak can have so many reasons behind it. Stop This Train often has broken my heart, in a positive way, I think
stop this train, heart of life have nothing to do with breakups or relationships. They're about life.
Jessica Trentwood thank you for pointing that out!
It's gonna be a good weekend. Thanks John!
Alex Costa o made aqui? o my gosh
mito!!
HECK YEAH!!
You like John Mayer too?
This is the classic example of "don't judge a book by it's cover" . I saw the title and thought wow how dumb, but it's one of the best songs he's ever written. The vocals and harmonies are incredible. Thanks J
it meant to be like this "🌊"
Broooo seriously same. I avoided this song, maybe even this album when I saw he had a saw with emoji in the title. Now one of my favorite John Mayer songs ever
Whenever I listen to a new John Mayer song, I just appreciate him so much more. What an artist.
Is anyone else mesmerized by the beautiful harmonizing in the background during the chorus??!!!! Uhhhhhhh so...it's sooooo mellow and sweet
Ashley Simmons me exactly
Its Al from the beach boys doing the harmonies there. I was shocked when I found that out
Wow, did not know that about Al, but just thinking the other day how this chorus reminded me of everything I love about the Beach Boys...makes total sense. JM did it again. Love. it.
Liam O'Grady holy shit right before i read this and hearing that part, I was just thinking of the beach boys. No wonder this is my favorite.
Beach boy sounds
I vividly remember hearing this song mid 2019 with my ex. We both knew our relationship was about to come to an end and as the song continued we held each other’s hand that much tighter. It was just a wave, and all we could do was hold onto one another as long as we could. It’s hard to hear this song but it sure does bring great memories that I’ll hold onto forever..

lolol how did you know
you were going to break up!
Wtf this is so sad
My son is 21 months old and falls asleep in my arms to this song....thanks John, I can finally sleep again :)
Picture this played live at an outdoor amphitheater on a summer night with the reverb dialed in and the audience still. MAN, IT MAKES ME SHIVER!
This song is insane. I spent my entire night going through my death metal/grind playlists for a friend... and then in the morning I was made aware that John had released Wave 2... This song blew me entirely away on first listen, the whole EP did... And then I listened a second time about a half an hour later and it made me cry.
Beautiful doesn't describe it.
Oh honey
You don't have to try so hard
To hurt me
Don't worry
I been thinking bout you too
What do we do
[Pre-Chorus]
Your heart is where my head should be
The dissonance is killing me
It breaks my heart
It breaks my heart
[Chorus]
Oh honey
Oh honey
It's just a wave
It's just a wave
And I know
That when it comes
I just hold on
I just hold on
[Verse 2]
Oh honey
I been talking to myself
Just to hear you
And you're saying
Everything I wish you would
And it's so good
[Pre-Chorus]
It's raining on the mission bell
They're draining out the wishing well
It breaks my heart
It breaks my heart
[Chorus]
Oh honey
Oh honey
It's just a wave
It's just a wave
And I know
That when it comes
I just hold on
I just hold on
[Bridge]
I rose on you like morning light
In shuttered dream we'll sleep at night
It breaks my heart
It takes all the love I have to say
I know we're gonna be ok
It breaks my heart
It breaks my heart
[Chorus]
Oh honey
Oh honey
It's just a wave
It's just a wave
And I know
That when it comes
I just hold on
Until it's gone
Beautifully written ♥️
❤
'The Search For Everything' is sooo appropriately titled... All I can think about is 'Heavier Things' and 'Battle Studies'. The man literally put all the elements of every album he's done onto this project. Gotta feeling it might become my favorite work from him
Darrel Be agreed. that is exactly what I thought after listening to.the album.
The part where he sings:
And I know
When it comes
I just hold on
I just hold on
...it just makes me feel something I can't describe.
Roxaso3o it's a mix of happiness with joy and pain
Same
Yes same ,I wish it went on for longer
This song is my favourite so far from the new album. Its so therapeutic and lulling. Good stuff! :')
I know I am two years later to reply on this comment...still I believe...this song has got some different vibes. Keep lovin John🙂😊❤️🌸
@@shubhankartiwari4348 youre not alone :))
@@jorgeemiliano5089 no one cares
Been telling myself that about all of his music for nearly 20 years. Best part? No copay 😉
Yes!! This song got me through a dark day. Came at just the right time. :)

This is very philosophical for anything in life.. when the wave comes, just hold on.. it'll pass :)
Continuum got me through the worst relationship. Dreaming with a broken heart. I can’t stop listening to this one. ❤ John Mayer is the best.

How has this been out for 5 years already?! Still remember listening to this for the first time 😍
It sends me back to the live dvd at LA. Same vibe. So intimate. Then the chorus invites us all. DAMN
his song writing is off the hook. these words are so profound. it is to me about depression and it hits you like a wave until its over and he just holds on. i love you John. you are so awesome...
It's actually a breakup album but listening to it with that interpretation in mind makes a lot of sense :)
This shows how great and talented John Mayer really is. This is shaping up to be one of his best album. Truly a living legend.
Sadly John Mayer is the last link between the classic music we grew up with in the 70/80s and present day,, the last of the great song writers so cherish him for as long as we can,,, and is this song not a prime example of dreamy harmony rich acoustic wonder, wow I better shut up lol x
"your heart is where my head should be" just... absolutely wonderful.
This song is emoji of a fire.
what?? this brilliant piece of music & lyrical poetry is only on 9.4k views?
cmon guys it deserves way more!
Let this special song be our little secret.
This song yanks my heart out of my chest and I cry every time.
Dear stranger you have a great taste of music ❤️
The addition of Al Jardine and his son performing the backup vocals is soul-crushing in the greatest way 😭
OH HONEY OH HONEY IT'S JUST A WAVE! IT'S JUST A WAVE!
absolutely one of the best lines by John Mayer x
Tão emocionante poder acompanhar o lançamento dessas canções tão perfeitas. Ele consegue se superar a cada álbum. Quem curte o John é sempre presenteado com seu talento ímpar.
Verdade! 😍❤
Sílvia Emília Só li verdades, ele é maravilhoso no que faz!
Sílvia Emília top mesmo
Didn’t truly listen to the lyrics until now. What a sad song
I know Katy know is happy with her family. But i was just thinking, imagine how powerful they will be when they have their own children and compose songs about like how grateful they are. Something like that 🥺💔
This song live was just as beautiful as you imagine it would be. I had never heard it before...and was mesmorized. It brought tears to my eyes. John is a powerful musician and performer.
best way to start a Friday! I love this man soooo much, he's so passionate😍 a real musician sounds exactly like this!
Anyone else so glad that he never says emoji of a wave in the actual song?! 😂
Phoebe Elvin so .. extremely.. relieved lol
Phoebe Elvin woooow, I really thought I was the ONLY one thinking that lol...and yes, I am
Phoebe Elvin hahaha :D Totally with you on that. This song is absolutely lovely, but this "emoji" thing on the title spoils it a tiny bit for me 😂
Extra glad. Personally don't like "emoji" being in the name of the song. Same with "Dear Marie. For some reason when he says, I go looking for your photograph online, bugs the crap out of me. A bit cheesy.
he has a few songs where he doesn't actually sing the title haha. like Gravity and I think Clarity
This is honestly my favorite track he's released in his series of 'waves'. Beautiful guitar voicing with meaningful lyrics. Can't wait to hear the rest of the album.
I like that he has brought the production back. Crisp vocals with layers. Sweet tones. It's a step back up to a straighter pop edge. Very honest sounding music.
It's been more than a year now...still love it!! thank you John.
I met John in my dream and told him how I'm feeling and then he wrote a whole album for me. Thanks John.
A masterpiece, probably his best piece of work ever. Take a bow king jm 🙌
The greatest Lyricist of all time: John Mayer. Period.
War of My Life got me through my child's catastrophic accident. ❤
"i know then when it comes, i just hold on until it's gone"
Thank you, John Mayer, for making beautiful, original music from your heart. You're a gift to the world, and I love you.
I want John Mayer to stop in time and live forever making his music 😢
He's pure gold.
Such an amazing musician and singer... Thank you John for being in this world.
You are where the light is...
i've heard JM songs right before my exams to calm me down, his music makes me feel a way i cant even begin to explain. John's an angel in disguise
It breaks mine too, John. And that means you wrote a great song.
Great job on your new album! PLEASE, never change the sound of your music! You are above pop music and the trends in the music industry today.
I'm doing a tattoo of this song. I always think about "The Great Wave off Kanagawa" by Hokusawa whenever I hear this and this painting speaks volumes to me
A beautiful masterpiece. A man being okay with knowing his woman has waves of emotions coming and he's willing to hold on for her. At least that's how I see it.
This song helps me get through my panic attacks. "I know when it comes, I just hold on, until it's gone"
Never getting tired of this song. Hell yeah!
"Heart of Life" and "Stop This Train" combined into one track. I can't even... This is freaking amazing!!! Keep up the good work, John!
Mr Mayer is back. Just another beautiful song what can i say 10/10
honestly, one of my favorite artists. god bless you, John Mayer
Emoji of a wave...Emoji of a song!! This has to be my favourite song of wave 2 and just from what has been released. Can you imagine this being played lived. Pure music to the ears. I hope this is played on tour ❤❤
Seseorang memberitahukan aku lagu ini, dan skrg aku merindukan org itu :')
Omiooooo
Three years ago I forgot to pay my electricity bill for 6 months and when it got shut off I stood in the dark staring out the window into the rain listening to this feeling stupid and sorry for myself. I then went out dancing with my friends that night anyways. Youth. Some reflection, mostly chaos.
"It takes all the love I have to say I know we're gonna be okay. It breaks my heart..." 💔 Love you John, despite of all the sad, painful memories that come back to my mind like a wave every time I listen to your music. 🌊
Too DOPE!!!! Thank you John for years of good tunes!!!!!
Your songs grow lotus flowers as I hear them over & over again, I can fell your shift & maturity of your spirit !With love & Gratitude
You've done it again John, I'm destroying that replay button
Every time I hear this song I just cry .It is just beautiful and breaks my heart . Amazing artist and Lovely voice .Expressive and moving John ♥️
3 years after, still crying :(
I didn't imagine there is a song so blessed like this. I feel peace when I listen to, thanks John. It is a pretty masterpiece.
This song takes my breath away.
True.. ❤️🌸🌼
really digging these new songs
The Beach Boys in the background with the harmony is simply genius!!
"O Honey...." wants to make me cry. John is God sent to aid us heal every time life hits us hard.
Is it this emoji 👋 or this emoji 🌊
shit I didn't think about it, I've always thought it's the second one
It's the hand gesture as in implying that hopefully that person would once again talk to you , similarly when initiating a chat
@@Keumiii What if you used to surf with them?
Honestly, the lyrics can go either way Summer. No wrong answer. I gravitate to the ocean wave but I feel like the hand wave has more deeper meaning. It holds a moment in time where that person's hand gesture in the wave sets off a flashback or flood of emotion that makes the song. Like a wave (either one) it comes and goes so quick, but you are left with the feeling.
Maybe instead of it being an "emoji" it's actually an emotion(?)
A wave of emotions
Love this song, John Mayer always knows how to tell the stories with his music, so love all his songs
l agree with you, indeed John Mayer is a great and
talented artist who's songs never goes out of style,
he's one of my favorites artist..
Underrated
Artist
lopindoosherfl Underrated as a guitar player
underrated song - most of the crowd knew it and sung along one of the first shows he played it live
When I read the lyrics it reminds of me and my girlfriend having misunderstandings or we both have bad days but "I still hold on until it's gone" it's just a wave. Speaks a lot for me knowing that everything will be alright with the two of us. Thanks John you always have these kind of songs that so relatable and inspire us in love, life and everything. ;)
Such a nice feel-good song. Very mature music too. Thank you, John.
Yeah there's definitely something familiar but also new about it. A great blend in my view
I Never Have Follow John Or Even Listen To His Music Untell September 2,2017! WOW, great songwriter!
such a beautiful track. I'm just sitting here listening to it and I feel so calm and happy and just so *content* inside 🌊💙
It made me want to go listen to his old album 'Paradise Valley'. :)
This bitterwseet song is my soothing pacifier for having just ended a relationship with a dear man who struggles with alcohol abuse. I hope he realizes that he has a problem beyond his own abilities and that he reaches out to the proper people for help.
It actually Breaks my heart 💔
Idk but for me all his songs isn't just all about telling me what he experienced, he is also making me feel as if I also experienced it even when I didn't. I find it so selfless for an artist to be able to that! My tears just keep on falling.
This song breaks my heart in the best way possible. It's so perfect.
Hello Beautiful how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
Your concert in Amsterdam tonight was so good... unbelievable. Youre the reincarnation of Jimi Hendrix if you ask me. Now listening to this gorgeous song and reminiscing over a tumbler of whiskey. Life's good
If the background vocals sound beach boy-ish to you, then that's beacuse he got original beach boy member al jardine and his son to do them. Pretty cool :)
Part of the modern Beach Boy trifecta with Dirty Computer by Janelle Monáe and Resentment by Kesha featuring founder and genius Brian Wilson!
To hear some great songs by Al, listen to Lookin' At Tomorrow or Winds of Change by The Beach Boys! He also did lead vocals for Help Me, Rhonda and their cover of California Dreamin'!
Welcome back John Mayer! This is the kind of music that captured my imagination years and years ago! Absolutely love these tracks that have been coming out!!!
Takes me to another place 🥰
I think John concern more about telling the world that good music still exist. he make his song so accessible on youtube so people can hear easily, when the other musician try so hard to dig money from online song. John just want people to hear him and his masterpiece. What a man..
Also because most of his profits come from live shows. So he doesn't really mind about how people get his music.
My favorite track from this EP.
What an INCREDIBLY produced song. So much emotion
