John Mayer joins Ben Jones at Absolute Radio in January 2010 for an interview. This is part one of the interview, you can watch part two here: www.absoluteradio.co.uk/player...
this is one of the rawest JM interviews i've seen. i guess cos it's in england and he feels safe.. so many moments when he was low key trolling and no one seemed to pick up on it as well
God that was a fantastic accent :P And to contradict the interviewer, he's selling out ARENAS and broke the top 50 with his latest album. He must have a pretty significant fanbase here, wouldn't you say?!
I was embarrassed to hear Ben Jones interviewing him. its clear her hass no idea who mayer is. this guys favourite band is nickleback for god sake. "I never really been able to play guitar! please!" and take off the goddamn cap, what is this the 80's!? OC rules!
Hey, It's Todd, How's it going!? Saw you were a fan of this fun music and thought you might dig my original songs. Mind checking out my brand new music video "Nintendo" and letting me know what you think? Head on over to my channel. Hope you dig! -Todd Carey
***** Nah, 'cause all those bands you can name were influenced by the rock music that had already originated in the States. Elvis for example was doing his thing before the Beatles were ever heard of.
And influences can be traced back again and again to the beginning of time, Jazz came about by breaking the conventional rules of Classical music, but we don't say that Jazz technically originated in Europe. If we're speaking strictly of 'Rock' as a genre then I would say that was a British invention, made up of what was already available of course.
I get what you're saying about Elvis doing what he did before the Beatles, and he and other American Rock n Roll people of the time obviously had a hand in shaping the Beatles sound. But because of how they used what they listened to and developed it further into more closely what the majority of people would consider Rock today, yeah I would have to say the Beatles.
"Is it because we invented rock music?" Wow... if that was serious he is very wrong. Bill Haley and his Comets were American. Also, Chuck Berry and Little Richard were American. Elvis of course as well. Who does Britain have over these performers?

"Hello, Clara, I hear you're a huge woman..." What if she actually is? She might have committed suicide after he did that.
The interviewer says they invented rock music........BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
+51MontyPython Kinda true if you look at all the big classic rock bands

Nah, 'cause all those bands you can name were influenced by the rock music that had already originated in the States. Elvis for example was doing his thing before the Beatles were ever heard of.

So who would you say was the first rock band?
I get what you're saying about Elvis doing what he did before the Beatles, and he and other American Rock n Roll people of the time obviously had a hand in shaping the Beatles sound. But because of how they used what they listened to and developed it further into more closely what the majority of people would consider Rock today, yeah I would have to say the Beatles.
Haha I didn't know John was funny.
the hot name is............. mila kunis
"Is it because we invented rock music?" Wow... if that was serious he is very wrong. Bill Haley and his Comets were American. Also, Chuck Berry and Little Richard were American. Elvis of course as well. Who does Britain have over these performers?
Dislike this interview. Ben Jones is terrible.
