Read an interview a while back where he mentions he regrets the lyrics because they seemed fake or something. I can't remember exactly wish i could find it again. I personally love the song.

Hm interesting. I wonder how he feels about Heavier Things in general.

Good question. Doesn't get too much love from him at shows it seems like. Something's Missing might be one of if not his best guitar riffs imo

[iMAC386]

I've always loved New Deep off that album. Just connected with me from the start for some reason.

[Speilmen230]

Wheel is easily my favorite track from Heavier Things. That song is a monster live when he plays it. The version from As/Is is tits.

[M. Steng]

Really been feeling Walt Grace the past few days. Always sort of slept on this song and perhaps I never gave it the deep, attentive listen it really requires.

This tune knocked me on my ass last night. Just the theme of not living with regrets and trying to achieve your goals, even in the face of criticism from family/friends...just connected with me for some reason.

"And for once in his life it was quiet, as he learned how to turn with the tide"....chills

Walt grace may be a top 10 song he’s written

It might be the best song he's ever written, period.

Lyrically, for me, it's either Walt Grace or 3x5.

iHeart posted something about an "album release show" for Mayer I think for the 26th. I think they goofed, and could just be a song. And then I saw something posted about how in the New Light music video there's a Client 1026. Probably people looking way too far into things, but hey I'll hop on the hype train

[TheLastPig]

ah okay.

Yeah probably the new song. He has mentioned it multiple times recently. No way he has an album done right now.


Anyone watch his IG live sunday night? Hilarious. I guess he will be doing one every sunday with guests.

[M. Steng]

I liked what heard from that snippet he posted last night.

Came in here to say that the more I listen to Born and Raised these past few years, the more I think it's my favorite JM album front to back. There's really no skippers on the whole album, it has such a good flow start to finish, and it has probably the best song he's ever written on it (Walt Grace). I can't believe people complained about this album when it came out, it's a masterpiece.

It's been my favorite since it was released.

I saw a thread on Reddit the other day, the premise was in honor of JM's bday to post your favorite lyrics. I thought about it for a while and tried to come up with a top five (no particular order), this was so difficult. Definitely changes day to day and depending on my mood but here's what I've got:

-"And for once in his life it was quiet/ As he learned how to turn in the tide." (Walt Grace)

-"Today I finally overcame/ Trying to fit the world inside a picture frame" and "You'll be with me next time I go outside/ Just no more 3x5s" (3x5)

-"Little by little, inch by inch/ We built a yard with a garden in the middle of it/ And it ain't much, but it's a start/ You got me swaying right along to the song in your heart." (A Face to Call Home)

-"Waiting on the day when these words are in stone/ When the kids are all grown, and we go dancing" and "Will you tie me tight in little strands of paradise?/Will you walk with me before the morning fades?" (Waitin' on the Day)

-"So what, so I've got a smile on/ It's hiding the quiet superstitions in my head/ Don't believe me, don't believe me/ When I say I've got it down." (Why Georgia)

Seriously sounded great. Definitely got some Grateful Dead vibes from it too.

"everybody's just a stranger, but that's the danger of going my own way..."

I've clung to that lyric as a battle cry in some of the tougher times in my life.

Spotify has informed me that John is my most listened to artist this year.

[Parrot Head]

Per John's Instagram...looks like we will be getting a 2019 world tour.

Playing 2 sets each night.

Australia & Asia dates announced. Rest to follow in the coming weeks.

[TheLastPig]

US dates will have to be late summer and fall. I will not miss this tour though.

[iMAC386]

Is there supposed to be a new album to coincide with that 2019 tour?

[M. Steng]

Right on, definitely will see him when he inevitably rolls through Hartford.
