    those guitars captured the mood of the song perfectly

    • @brianwalsh9265
      @brianwalsh9265 Před 4 lety +16

      I disagree, politely. The way John plays it is much more difficult because it sounds like the non-stop chugging of a train. That sound reinforces the idea that you can't stop moving forward in life, seeing loved ones age and die. The way it's being played here is soft, slow, moody, and controlled.

    • @olivierlanglet1932
      @olivierlanglet1932 Před 4 lety +4

      Brian Walsh Well, that’s the most beautiful definition of Stop This Train’s guitar part I’ve ever heard. Thank you for this.

    • @hadeskay6091
      @hadeskay6091 Před 4 lety +1

      @@brianwalsh9265 Exactly. This sounds more like the guitar pace for say, pink floyd's pillows of wind. The singer has a good voice, but that excessive vibrato really does little to capture the unrest and the nausea of the moving train and the frustration with living that John captures without any vibrato or unnecessary articulation that I see here.
      :c

    • @TheCupons
      @TheCupons Před 4 lety +2

      @@brianwalsh9265 you know, i absolutely understand your point and that interpretation makes perfect sense. while you see the guitar sound as "non-stop chugging' of the train, my interpretation stems from the restraint these guys showed with the tempo and the plucking, which relates to the hesitation or flat out refusal to move forward with the train, wanting to stop it and get off. could be really far off, but it's what i felt with this version. :)

    • @musiccityspotlightpodcast4470

    Great cover, really enjoyed it. What this video does too is highlight how amazingly talented John Mayer is. It takes four people to do this cover and he does this ON HIS OWN.

    No, I'm not color blind
    I know the world is black and white
    Try to keep an open mind
    But I just can't sleep on this tonight
    Stop this train
    I wanna get off and go home again
    I can't take the speed it's moving in
    I know I can't
    But, honestly, won't someone stop this train?
    Don't know how else to say it
    Don't want to see my parents go
    One generation's length away
    From fighting life out on my own
    Stop this train
    I wanna get off and go home again
    I can't take the speed it's moving in
    I know I can't
    But, honestly, won't someone stop this train?
    So scared of getting older
    I'm only good at being young
    So I play the numbers game to find a way to say that life has just begun
    Had a talk with my old man
    Said, "Help me understand."
    He said, "Turn 68
    You'll renegotiate
    Don't stop this train
    Don't for a minute change the place you're in
    Don't think I couldn't ever understand
    I tried my hand
    John, honestly, we'll never stop this train"
    Once in a while when it's good
    It'll feel like it should
    And they're all still around
    And you're still safe and sound
    And you don't miss a thing
    'Til you cry when you're driving away in the dark
    Singing, "Stop this train
    I wanna get off and go home again
    I can't take this speed it's moving in
    I know I can't
    'Cause now I see I'll never stop this train"
    (Think I got 'em now)
