I saw Mayer dropping this song the same day. It has been one of my first Karaoke choices ever since. Soulful and meaningful. Good for you, Mr. Hawthorne!
I just recently discovered Mayer....about a year ago. I love and follow music pretty closely. This guy rules! I can't believe I didn't "discover" him sooner.
Totally agree. I also love and follow music closely but discovered him singing with Daryl's House and individually about six months ago and not a day has passed that I haven't listened listened to him or Daryl's House.
There was a popular 70's song (name which I cannot recall) that is quite similar to this song. I loved it and love this song. I am falling in love with the music of Mayer Hawthone.
I like Mayer Hawthorne.....Thought his first appearance on KCRW back in 2009 was better because of the live horn section....This time around they had the horn section on tape.....Still sounds great though....
Oh, Henry was a renegade Never liked to play it safe One component at a time There's got to be a better way Oh people came from miles around Searching for a steady job Welcome to the Motor Town Boomin' like an atom bomb Oh, Henry was the end of the story, Then everything went wrong And we'll return it to its former glory But it just takes so long It's gonna take a long time It's gonna take it but we'll make it one day It's gonna take a long time It's gonna take it but we'll make it one day Oh, Barry had a record store Started up a studio Oh, West Grand Boulevard Turned it into solid gold Oh, people all around the world Tunin' into radios Welcome to the Motor Town Buckle up 'cause here we go Oh, Barry was the end of the story, Then everything went wrong And we'll return it to its former glory But it just takes so long It's gonna take a long time It's gonna take it but we'll make it one day It's gonna take a long time It's gonna take it but we'll make it one day Wherever we're going It's gonna take it but we'll make it one day Whatever we're doing It's gonna take it but we'll make it one day However you want it It's gonna take it but we'll make it one day
Mayer knows what up” love this song.

mike collins Give a listen to his band tuxedo. Also he sometimes sings with a wonderful singer named Gavin Turek.
Totally agree. I also love and follow music closely but discovered him singing with Daryl's House and individually about six months ago and not a day has passed that I haven't listened listened to him or Daryl's House.

just flawless 😌
What a sound...what a band...
hahaha Joy, i have been nice to you, but now i have come to the edge. classic!
Great performance...would love to hear him do a longer medley of this with Brenton Wood's "Gimme A Sign"....or just a a cover of "sign".
Great solid singing and background harmony . Perfect pitch and good diction . A “ cookin” band

Lo amo!!!!!!!!!!
This is perfect
Very solid band!
You don't want to go out on a limb, I guess ha?
what a great song !!!!!
very groovy and musical
did no one catch that "joy ive been nice to you but ive come to the edge " line ? heres a hit " BACON IS GOOD FOR ME"
I had NO IDEA that is what he was referencing until just now!!!
this is part of my morning music before I head into the studio
Love it!
so chilllll bro
The bass line reminds me of the old song “Groovin' on a Sunday afternoon “.
Love how they replace the line "sh**ting fu**ing" with "chicken clucking"
Lol that reminds me of the TV edit of Pineapple Express. Motherfucker becomes MuckaFlucka
Check him out on Darryl’s house.
No strings
Strange arrangement

Lyrics from Song
A Long Time....
Mayer Hawthorne
1:31 that noise is so funny!
BRENTON WOOD ?
Finally found the reference to Joy lmfao its Wife Swap
(King Curtis)
deeeeetroit, what!?
Ha ha ha ha ha, I'm the 11,111th viewer! Is that good...or bad? Lol, I don't care!
sexy voice...
"Chicken clucking attitude"? We know what he really wanted to say there.
It's pronounced "shitty fuckin' attitude" not whatever it was you said.
So cool.
Fucking cool.
