So I have an interesting story here about this video that John Mayer posted all the way back at the beginning of the year, it was January 13, 2008, and I was browsing through youtube, and checking out my favorite subscriptions, one of which is John Mayers handle mayermusic.
Well I noticed that he had just posted this video in what I would think was just minutes before as it only had 3 views, I checked it out and was mesmurized by the tonal quality of the guitar, and Mayer’s masterful way of playing a cover of Justin Timberlake’s I Think She Knows.
Well no words or not, this intrumental cover version of the song is really cool.
Now not just anybody has a five, six grand or more lying around to fork out to pickup a Collings I-35 electric, and the mix of gear he is using here… well I can only dream and save.
Uh Sorry, I digressed into equipment envy… anyway the next morning when I checked out the video again it had over 300,000 views in less than 24 hours, I still like to watch and listen to this video, to this day it is one of my favorites.
Since then this video has exceeded a million and a half views
