      This is a killer performance, isn't it? So raw, so tender, so true, so screaming and weeping and ... Actually I am a classical opera singer (bass) and as an instrument I just play piano (mostly J.S. Bach). Usually I detest pop music. But not with John Mayer, and especially not with this very performance of Slow Dancing In A Burning Room. That guitar solo is an emotional eruption, and after 25 times it still transports me into space.

Wonderful musician.

Did not realize until recently that the lick is a note for note recreation of the vocals in the outro of Aerosmith's "What it Takes," and that the lyrics of said vocals are "I don't wanna burn," in a song called "slow dancing in a burning room." Not only is it really really clever, but the execution is so perfect; you can hear the guitar singing that lyric
