Although he is the cheesiest, corniest, most cringe dude in music haha, shirt tight on biceps, jeans tight on his ass, all the "woow baby etc" . Respect for guitar playing tho!
The hard rock style of Keith paired with the blues / soul style of John are a match made in guitar heaven. Two of the best axe men of this generation , thanks for giving us this gem
@@ezarariawan12 the gibson there aside just watching is so satisfying... o god, how much it's satisfying, that's what they deserve with their politics U.U
For those who don't know about Keith. Go watch You'll think of me live by Keith Urban. YOU'LL BE BLOWN AWAY. All his other songs are amazing as well and I don't like country otherwise but his music. Tonight I wanna cry, Stupid boy, Blue aint your color, Somebody like you, Till summer comes around, long hot summer, days go by, etc. This guy has amazing songs. Really talented guitarist as well. You can see him performing live on Ellen show as well on CZcams. Start with You'll think of me live performance by him on CZcams. Amazing song and guitar.
@@troymakowski what are you talking about his #1 is a Tele and he has a stack of tele’s and cabronitas if anything I think of a Tele when I think of Keith he does play a few Gibson’s and has a few Strats but he’s a country boy so Tele would be his main sound
@@zacharymorris6478 no offense but shut up…. & this is coming from somebody that makes a living having been a fan of John since I started playing professionally. It gets old & a bit cringe to see people constantly want to compare players every chance they get as if they’re the gatekeepers of all things related to guitar
What makes this perfect is the imperfections. The strap coming off (with straplocks btw) and Keith standing in for John when he doesn't hit the high range with a smile on his face. True musicianship.
Undoubtedly. Both are amazing musicians. I read somewhere that John Mayer had just recently had undergone throat surgery some time before this performance.
Yes.. It fell at 3:26 For that I continue not usiing strap locks... It's expensive and not confidenceable. I prefer those rubber bushing that fit perfectly every guitar I play. Never had a problem. And the best, they're cheaper.
It was smooth! It reminded me of when Stevie Ray Vaughan snapped a string mid-solo, kept going, and had his guitar tech (Rene Martinez) come out and put his strap back on with a different guitar! Legendary
@@Hezzadude12 You reminded me of when BB King broke a string mid song and kept singing while he put a new one, I think it was during a Live Aid show, you've seen it?
@@faustoorieta I've seen that but not the whole video. I mean, he tried putting on the string on the headstock first and then the saddle...but how did he tie the sring to the saddle without threadung it thru it first??? Both SRV BBK are legendary moments. Cheers
The guitar solos are really soulful I like John Lennon's singing and Billy Preston's Rhodes Piano fills of the original. In a great parallel universe it would've been nice to see a mixture of both
I dragged my husband to a John Mayer concert almost 20 years. He changed to a huge fan. I have seen him 14 times since! Hoping to get to a Keith Urban concert someday!
These two stars are so bright that I hardly even noticed the rhythm player! I notice something new about this video every time I watch it and it’s in large part thanks to comments like this! Thank you!! He looks thrilled hahah
By chance I saw him in a Melbourne pub before he became famous about 25+ years ago. I always remember that night because its rarer than rare to see someone so gifted and so his success didn't surprise me one bit. I've been playing guitar for 40 yrs and its difficult to impress me but he blew me away that night. I was lucky to see him playing as a rockin guitarist but these days he's more of a singer doing ballads and country pop.
I think John Lennon would have liked this. These guys ain't posers. They have the chops, the attitude, and the sincerity to play a song like this, and it really shows.
@jackringo1 they're playing blues scales, not just pentatonic.. but nothing compares to john lennon who is very well-known for his outstanding guitar playing, right? I mean the guy plays this song solely with open chords which is plain genius.
@jackringo1 hahaha you're just an old man that is scared because there are actually better musicians than the Beatles!!! ha the Beatles weren't even that good man....
I love that at 1:30 John reckons he doens't quite have his vocal range back to sing the next lines and he just looks at Keith and he understands immediately hahaha
Cody Church It's a high pitched part (don't know if that's correct english), and back in 2013 when this was performed, John wasn't recovered yet from his granuloma (vocalchord problems). So that's why, I guess. And Keith's smiling, so he knows hahaha. but that's my guess
casper van helvoirt Haha, I always thought it looked like the next line was actually Keith's part, but John noticed that Keith was nowhere near the mic, so he covered for him as KU rushed to the mic.
***** Hahaha that could be it aswell ;) But since they both have 4 lines to sing each time, I guess John just realised he could hit the high notes yet ^^
1:31 Urban is thinking I've waited for this moment all my life.... belting out "a love that lasts forever" when someone else is unable. Beautiful moment. Real love does last forever. No doubt about it.
What an odd formula ... Blues Guy John Mayer + Australian Country Guy Keith Urban + Old Beatles Song = Monstrously Great Jam! I couldn't put this on my playlist fast enough!
Watch "You'll think of me live", the live version by Keith Urban on CZcams. You'll never forget this guy. Then see his performance of "For you" on the Ellen show. Then see his Piano performace on "Tonight I wanna cry". I think Keith is really an underrated musician.
No words. Absolutely my favorite video to watch over and over. If I found out they would both perform this again together, there would be nothing stopping me from seeing it live but I have a feeling this is a once in a lifetime performance.
John Mayer really is like the garlic powder of music, you put his voice and his guitar on literally anything and it sounds better. This guy worked with Ed Sheehan, Kanye West, Common, and Alicia Keys and brought the best out of all them.
Appreciate The Beatles for more masterpieces than any band will ever give us. I hate to imagine what music would be like without those four lads. And The Beach Boys, specifically Brian Wilson, for his pure genius talent in the studio.
Usually covers don’t do justice, but they made this their own. As a musician the original song leaves so much room for embellishing and adlibbing. Beautiful
and to think - the Super Bowl doesn't like live guitar because of "mistakes" that can be made that mess up the performance... man, these dudes both turned a handful of mistakes into absolute gems. This is what music is all about it. Improv at its finest. So much soul, so much feeling
As a musician myself, I actually am ok with the mistakes in a live music session because that is what makes us all human!! It's a real, organic feel together.. mistakes and all :) you can't emulate that feeling and vibe right there with that crowd, in a studio. Never. gonna. happen.
I think Flea from RHCP said they don’t do live instruments because setting up and taking it down would be way too hard in a short period of time, and not even including sound checks and stuff.
My wife drug me to my first Mayer concert. Been a fan ever since. First show I ever went to was Ozzfest. I like going from Ozzy to Metallica and then a little John Mayer.
As far as I'm concerned there are only 2 kinds of music in the world: good music and bad music. This is good music performed by amazing performers who appreciate good music. Top shelf.
2:17 John face reacts to a guitar lick even if it isn't him doing it! Seriously though you can tell john is the type of artist that really 'feels' the music and just reacts in the moment. Not many genuine artist like that around anymore. I'm glad he found a fellow artist in Keith and Jammed with him (and recorded it)
Great version. Keith’s guitaring is one of the best I’ve ever heard. John’s piece is brilliantly soulful and compelling. Together they create a glorious song.
air fits as perfect it's what your breath says haha but fr put a glass where i am i'll move out of the way for you hoping to be the next up and comer maybe have a hit with these guys someday
Of course I am a very ardent fan of the Beatles, but these two nailed "Don't let me down" like hell. Their guitar handling is simply magic not forgetting their vocals
I would venture to say that Mayer is a better guitar player than a singer and I mean that as a compliment because he's a good singer, with a good voice. I decided this after listening to him playing blues music. I used to think he was just a good looking white boy pop singer, but he's a hell of a player, and Urban isn't bad either. Mayer is also a better song writer than for which I initially game him credit. Gravity is damn good. Very sparse, but it says a lot in a few words.
Made by Dan Strain in Nashville. Check out the Keith Urban Rig RunDown where they describe the guitar. I have 4 of Dan’s guitars (2 teles) and they are great instruments
It warms my heart to read these comments. Keith Urban for some reason is known as a pretty boy to many. But he is a hella good guitarist. Kudos for John Mayer on the vocals as well. I've missed his voice. And at 4:24 those guitars are talking to each other
Hello 👋 Tammy. How are you doing? Hope you are fine, I'm Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado. Where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
My Granddaddy was at this show, and he got to meet John. He described him as a “nice kid”. If he got the old man’s endorsement, he’s got mine. Rest easy, Granddaddy.
Would NEVER have picked these two to blend so perfectly on THIS song! Not competing or showing off - just making incredible music. Makes me want to hear a lot more of them together.
Kriss Gennrich I want more also. Both are in my favorite guitarists, singers, humans. Number 1 Is and Number 2 is ... I can’t decide. Jimmy would have love Eric Clapton in this.
They each have their own different styles so its really hard to debate on which one is better. Personally I think JM is but Keith is right up there with him. Agreed though, together they are awesome!
but I laughed hard at that comment and then watching the scene :-D Cause you know that's not true but looks like - that's what makes it funny. You know ... I think that face could easily be a meme :-D
I feel like less is more when you play this song live, you're not trying to overendulge but capture the essence of the vibe of when this song was written. It's not a song to fly off the handle with a solo or overdo the lyrics just a chill vibe.
Two distinct voices doing a great job, and perhaps introducing young-uns to the Beatle. Kudos, gentlemen. Keith, you sure know how to emote songs and that guitar playing, WOW.
1:31-1:34 Keith helps out with a high pitch note is the most wholesome scene. Point, JM was a year into his throat surgery and was still finding his feat
Another preference...WOW Keith Urban can be fabulous with each artist he lets into his already divine style which I LOVE, have for many generations. Keepem coming Man, you are my Blessing 🤗💗😘
@@BryceRogers_ That was not intended to be a dig at all on Keith :) .. or country music. But more of an affirmation that he plays with so much soul. He literally has so much talent.
People are gonna watch this forever and comment about how Keith helps John out in the second verse, but it should be noted that he also takes the first guitar solo and crushes it
ThatEraSound It's not weird lol. Everyone has their own preferences. I like this version more too. But I don't neglect the original either, in fact I have deep respect for that version because if that hadn't been created, this version wouldn't exist either.
my favorite part about this double guitar solo is that it's actually a triple guitar solo. Took me about until about the 6th or 7th listening to properly notice it, but the third guitarist is doing some pad-like lines during the quiet part that I think really work well with the star duo. Props to who ever that guy is! Playing supplemental yet non-intrusive stuff is an art on it's own
damn nice catch, I never heard that before. I love the collaborative effort that goes into creating amazing music edit: Plus the drums, base obviously. But the backup singers too filling in the 'gusto'. Props to everyone up there
Let’s keep in mind how tense of a time this was for Mayer. Any big JM fans know that though this performance is mind blowing, but the vocals lacked. John was going through a real tough time here: a year from his throat surgery and rediscovering his voice and some of the missing pieces he lost. The world saw him as an ego-headed womanizer, but that’s not who John is and this moment in time was a major turning point for him as a musician and a man
Why make excuses for John MAYER, this is one of the greatest songs! Two men making love on guitar’s as another comment had said! Seriously, this song is addictive
@@oneofakind9784 John Mayer had granulomas on his vocal cords which meant he was close to losing his voice completely. He couldn't even speak for around half a year, and was using an iPad to communicate instead, in an effort to give his voice an opportunity to heal. If you compare his voice here to say, 2007, you can see he's still really struggling here. It's only by 2015-16 that you can see some portions of his old voice come back, IMO.
L John well they have this far since 63 buddy, he was the best beatle the only one who made it alone, McCartney and the wings had 2 hits, George Harrison did OK with the travelling wilberries but John was the man, the best vocal the best writer and a better guitarist than Harrison
Betty Pendegrast What are you talking about? .... He has already done several covers of Hendrix - his style is based on Hendrix/SRV... He has also done a pretty cover of Comfortably Numb where he plays the solo... Please stop being so ignorant :-/
John helping Keith with his strap, Keith helping John with his vocals, they really didn't let each other down
Top comment :D
Most positive comment so far

Very true! Awesome how Keith picked up the higher notes when John couldn't hit em. Two awesome performers, two phenomenal guitarists.
I watch this at least once every day to maintain my mental health
Same here :)

I do too ...calms me instantly and takes my focus off the bad in this time, in the world. Love these two guys!!
or you could just listen to the original one?
Keith Urban DEMANDS Respect here. Not only his guitar playing, but his voice too. You made Lennon proud.

And the best songwriters to ever exist, Paul and John, it’s amazing to see them cover this with their own elements, the guitar work is amazing.
Guitar heaven. Love that.
Amazing!
And James Blunt ❤ 😊
It appears they each play the same key..
Just one plays in major and other in minor. That's cool.

Keith Urban can seriously turn a guitar inside out. What a beautiful sound. These guys are absolute legends.
hes decent. hes no mayer by any stretch.
great canyon between Keith Urban and great guitarists. he even sings english song with hilly Billy southern accent.
Ask John what he thinks of Keith. They played together in a canyon.

Come on..really??
right?! same thing I thought first time I saw him live.
Common occurrence. Lol
Every professional guitarist can play like that, even the background guitarist.
Dragged my husband to a Keith Urban concert a few years ago. Begrudgingly. He changed to a huge fan and still is.
Hello Beautiful song

I thought that was a lady
Gage Shaw......Guitarist is Zane Carney
Theo Emanuelsson well it’s not actually. It’s Zane Carney as someone mentioned above I just learned this a second ago
You're looking at some of the best artists on the planet right there.
I swear Guitar is the coolest instrument ever
Unbeatable coolest instrument. The most versatile, it can use in any genre of music
John's reaction to Keith's lick at 2:17 is priceless lmao
thats hilarious they killed it tho!
❤❤❤LOVE that LOOK!!!
I mean...Keith played a lick that blew John Mayer's mind. That is some serious high praise in a look.
Wait what
⚡️❤️
I've neither seen Keith Urban perform nor have I heard any of his songs before. But this... this has earned my respect towards him.
Then my friend, what the fuck u waiting for! U've lost some precious time to listen to Urban's great music. Just do it!
Jose Romero did you ever here his tune Blue Ain’t Your Colour, Well worth the listen!
By chance I saw him in a Melbourne pub before he became famous about 25+ years ago.

Really, this is about the best 6 minutes you can spend with music - these two really did have a stellar moment in time!
I think John Lennon would have liked this. These guys ain't posers. They have the chops, the attitude, and the sincerity to play a song like this, and it really shows.

Dont even know keith urban. Until i saw him in a guitar channel reviewinghis guitar skills
John mayer is like water
what ever glass you put him into, he just fits perfectly
Omg....SO TRUE.
air fits as perfect it's what your breath says haha but fr put a glass where i am i'll move out of the way for you hoping to be the next up and comer maybe have a hit with these guys someday
TRUE! He even played for a Jay Z concert and STILL fit perfectly. No one else gets away with playing blues licks in a rap concert other then Mayer.
John’s voodoo cover was damn good
@@devkajiwala421 oh ya I almost watched his Texas Flood video today
Of course I am a very ardent fan of the Beatles, but these two nailed "Don't let me down" like hell. Their guitar handling is simply magic not forgetting their vocals
The lack of egos here is a beautiful thing!
Hey how are you doing today?
Hard to believe a song written in 1969 is still relevant and sounds so good today.
Beatles Baby
Beatles are timeless
Dude.....what r u thinking?
…until you realize who wrote it.
Lots of things made in 69 are still relevant and sound and look good today .
This is how a telecaster and stratocaster talk to each other, it's like 2 brothers talking :)
I would venture to say that Mayer is a better guitar player than a singer and I mean that as a compliment because he's a good singer, with a good voice. I decided this after listening to him playing blues music. I used to think he was just a good looking white boy pop singer, but he's a hell of a player, and Urban isn't bad either. Mayer is also a better song writer than for which I initially game him credit. Gravity is damn good. Very sparse, but it says a lot in a few words.

Keith: so what did you eat today?
John: oh you know the usual
Danocaster tele
Made by Dan Strain in Nashville. Check out the Keith Urban Rig RunDown where they describe the guitar. I have 4 of Dan’s guitars (2 teles) and they are great instruments
dbob
I'll check it out.. then have my guitarist brother translate it haha
Why go to therapy when you can just watch this video
😂😂 facts I play this video at least once a week
It warms my heart to read these comments. Keith Urban for some reason is known as a pretty boy to many. But he is a hella good guitarist. Kudos for John Mayer on the vocals as well. I've missed his voice. And at 4:24 those guitars are talking to each other
Hello 👋 Tammy. How are you doing? Hope you are fine, I'm Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado. Where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
My Granddaddy was at this show, and he got to meet John. He described him as a “nice kid”. If he got the old man’s endorsement, he’s got mine. Rest easy, Granddaddy.
Rest In Peace to ur granddad
How old is this performance?
@@nikhilrocksbhardwaj 2013
This comment made my day, simple and easy, RIP to your GD
Would NEVER have picked these two to blend so perfectly on THIS song! Not competing or showing off - just making incredible music. Makes me want to hear a lot more of them together.
If you haven't already seen their CMT Crossroads episode, you should check it out.
Pretty sure the two are food friends! But don’t quote me on that haha
Their CMT Crossroads collaboration is phenomenal.
pancho's villa yea I know right? It’s out of this world!!!!
Kriss Gennrich I want more also. Both are in my favorite guitarists, singers, humans. Number 1 Is and Number 2 is ... I can’t decide. Jimmy would have love Eric Clapton in this.
I literally watch this every day. Best performance of the generation.
Two of the best guitarists from different genres honoring one of the greatest songwriting duos of all time.
That's a beautiful way to put it. 👏
Instead of debating which one is better, why don't we focus on how awesome these guys are together?
Agreed!
They each have their own different styles so its really hard to debate on which one is better. Personally I think JM is but Keith is right up there with him. Agreed though, together they are awesome!
Absolutely!!
2:16 John's face is like "Ooooh" after Keith plays that killer lick...so good
Watch them do Sweet Thing together. Best ever jamming.
soooo smooooth
but I laughed hard at that comment and then watching the scene :-D Cause you know that's not true but looks like - that's what makes it funny. You know ... I think that face could easily be a meme :-D
MrWeareone777 agreed 100%
Without words John gave Keith one of the best honest compliments one could give
I feel like less is more when you play this song live, you're not trying to overendulge but capture the essence of the vibe of when this song was written. It's not a song to fly off the handle with a solo or overdo the lyrics just a chill vibe.
Two distinct voices doing a great job, and perhaps introducing young-uns to the Beatle. Kudos, gentlemen. Keith, you sure know how to emote songs and that guitar playing, WOW.
The tone that Mayer comes in with at 4:12....Dear god!
Big eargasm time
1:31-1:34 Keith helps out with a high pitch note is the most wholesome scene. Point, JM was a year into his throat surgery and was still finding his feat
My favourite part....
coolest part is keith had the same surgery 2 years before this!
Another preference...WOW Keith Urban can be fabulous with each artist he lets into his already divine style which I LOVE, have for many generations. Keepem coming Man, you are my Blessing 🤗💗😘
I thought he was just trying to sing over him
I dont hear any problems with Johns voice
The most beautiful rendition of DONT LETME DOWN I ever heard. LOVELy !
Keith and John play some some awesome jams together. They are amazing. This song never had a better remake
shit I didn't expect Keith Urban to be this good
Keith Urban is a phenomenal guitarist!
@@oneitalia2312 I didn't know!!
@@sheefree .... Hi Lillian! This mash-up between John and Keith was great! Yes, Keith Urban is a fantastic guitarist....he's "very" under-rated!
Keith is bad ass!
I hear THAT
Keith Urban is an animal on those SOLOS... I think Keith Urban is a SOUL player that resorted to Country to pay the bills...Damn that was good.
I don't think Keith needs any help paying the bills.
@@madisonmosman yeah i think calling it "resorting to country" is disingenuous to the genre and his artistry
Jay Troxel You are so right, definitely a beautiful soul player the best. God bless you always .🌹💖💖🎉
@@BryceRogers_ That was not intended to be a dig at all on Keith :) .. or country music. But more of an affirmation that he plays with so much soul. He literally has so much talent.
Ohweee that nicole kidmann gots herself a live one, hahaha.
Wish I could like this 1000 times!!!! ❤️
A strap coming off followed up by an epic solo is the most rock n roll thing ever. These two guys are sublime
Its crazy how many people come back to this everyday... this song is masterpiece!
It's guitar sex man, what do you even expect. By far my most fav guitar porno
I need a daily John Mayer fix, lately anything with Dead & Co....but this always does the trick!
I literally just randomly came back to it for the 400th time. No reason, it just popped into my head and I had to get my fix. Sooo good.
It’s crazy how many videos you leave this exact comment on…
Man, you ain't lyin'!!!
Who puts this video on repeat and then comes back every few months???👇🏼
THIS GUY
I come here every few days 🙃🙃
Matteo Cot me too
Every morning at 5 the dogs n i listen to this! John Mayer is such a natural n sexy in his musi ...
Im one of em,lol
I have seen since 2005 over 100 times. Never fails. Keith that is. Glen Campbell said once he's as good as anyone in guitar playing
I lost the love of my life, I didn't love anyone like that, this song gives me a lot of strength to move on ... day by day ..😢
I have watched this at least more than 100 times and each time it just gets better and better.
Urban’s tone sounds like how vanilla icecream tastes like
Hahahah john kinda has more of a pistachio ice cream taste and look if you ask me.
that tone is just gross...
Gus Oberdick in a good way
온올림은 무슨 뜻이죠?ㅋㅋㅋ
@@guso1330 hope you can play better
John's solo.. dear god. He's on such a different level.
Don't think you're fair I think Urban and John complement each other! :)
Svante Pålsson Dude, "completement each other"?. Come on. Katy Perry completes him. That was super gay.
Absolutely ASTOUNDING! These two great guitar players together doing Lennon's song was PHENOMENAL!
People are gonna watch this forever and comment about how Keith helps John out in the second verse, but it should be noted that he also takes the first guitar solo and crushes it
Anyone watching this while quarantined 2020?.
Yes brilliant vesion
Of course brotha
Always
history brother..
Yooo!
I was clapping like a moron the entire time. This was a great moment in musical history !!!
i think this is my favourite video on the internet
I gotta say, keith urban is one hell of a great guitarist. His guitar solos in this performance was mad!
Check out devil went down to nashville.
possibly the greatest guitar solo i've ever heard, even the part where his strap comes off, i'm not even joking. wish i could have seen this live.
MicrowaveWalrus Haven't seen much guitar solos then! hahaha. This was a very amazing performance, love it
@@Tristen95gi EXACTLY!
Other than the Beatles the best version I’ve ever heard
Yeah, Urban is a great singer, but a little more on the polished/clean side. I think nobody lives up to John Lennon's raspy original.
I actually find this one the best:D my opinion🙌🏼
@@milovahasarja7723 ... That's REALLY weird.. you're probably the one out of five people who like it more
ThatEraSound what can I say I am a weird guy :D
ThatEraSound It's not weird lol. Everyone has their own preferences. I like this version more too. But I don't neglect the original either, in fact I have deep respect for that version because if that hadn't been created, this version wouldn't exist either.
A perfect duet. No competition, just love for music.
Love how they communicate musically. No words needed.
my favorite part about this double guitar solo is that it's actually a triple guitar solo. Took me about until about the 6th or 7th listening to properly notice it, but the third guitarist is doing some pad-like lines during the quiet part that I think really work well with the star duo. Props to who ever that guy is! Playing supplemental yet non-intrusive stuff is an art on it's own
That’s John’s band so has to be Zane Carney.
No Literally the guy was holding it all together super well which is impressive considering it’s John Mayer and Keith urban
Check out how he plays the first solo on Queen of California from this concert.
damn nice catch, I never heard that before. I love the collaborative effort that goes into creating amazing music
edit: Plus the drums, base obviously. But the backup singers too filling in the 'gusto'. Props to everyone up there
@@archibaldiv1886 - Yes, fantastic backup singers. Talk about supplemental but non-intrusive. They were wonderful!
Let’s keep in mind how tense of a time this was for Mayer. Any big JM fans know that though this performance is mind blowing, but the vocals lacked. John was going through a real tough time here: a year from his throat surgery and rediscovering his voice and some of the missing pieces he lost. The world saw him as an ego-headed womanizer, but that’s not who John is and this moment in time was a major turning point for him as a musician and a man
Why make excuses for John MAYER, this is one of the greatest songs! Two men making love on guitar’s as another comment had said! Seriously, this song is addictive
Special K not making excuses, just giving more a reason to appreciate and understand
@@oneofakind9784 John Mayer had granulomas on his vocal cords which meant he was close to losing his voice completely. He couldn't even speak for around half a year, and was using an iPad to communicate instead, in an effort to give his voice an opportunity to heal. If you compare his voice here to say, 2007, you can see he's still really struggling here. It's only by 2015-16 that you can see some portions of his old voice come back, IMO.
@@StephanieL180 is that similar to what Tom Keifer from Cinderella had? I know he lost singing abilty for a little while
He was in pain but he still carried on like a Camp proud of him Dedicate so much good music🎶❤🎶❤🎶❤
This is a definition of blues and music itself. Magnificent conversation between two musicians!
GENIUS MUSICIANS. THEEE BEST!!! ROCK ON KEITH. ROCK ON JOHN!!!👍🍺👍🍺👍🍺👍
4:40 that third guitarist in the background pretty much sums up my lovelife
Zane Carney can rip it man. Look at the version of dear marie in Letterman. Carney is at his finest there.
Lol
U M AKE ME LOL
LOL SAME
Freek van den Oetelaar 😂😂😂👍🏻
John Lennon's songs are going to live forever.
L John well they have this far since 63 buddy, he was the best beatle the only one who made it alone, McCartney and the wings had 2 hits, George Harrison did OK with the travelling wilberries but John was the man, the best vocal the best writer and a better guitarist than Harrison
Better guitarist than Harrison he wasn't but the brains behind songwriting. and his vocals made them.His passing was a big blow
Yet again Ringo always getting left out lmao!!
@@keithybearman4978 you obviously haven't done your research if you think that Paul McCartney flopped as a solo artist
Nitin Puranik no one was even talking to you
I knew Keith was no slouch at guitar, but Jesus, that dude can Play!!!😎
John Lennon Would Be Completely Stoked To Hear John And Keith’s Version Of A Beatles Classic!!!🎤🎤🎸🎸🎵🎼🎶👍👍👍♥️♥️♥️
I would pay ALOT of money just to see these two artists do some of the classics together: Zeppelin, Hendrix, Pink Floyd....lets make that happen
Betty Pendegrast What are you talking about? .... He has already done several covers of Hendrix - his style is based on Hendrix/SRV... He has also done a pretty cover of Comfortably Numb where he plays the solo... Please stop being so ignorant :-/
I sat on the side of the stage during this show it was amazing.
Oskar Børjesson where can i find John playing Confortably Numb?
Really. Why? You can probably go down the street and catch and great cover band for $20 bucks.
Michael Burke Spoken just like someone who wouldn't know the difference.
4:59 is literally when they start talking to each other with their guitars.
My goodness
Okay BB King Blues box time🔥
I love this song Keith Urban and John Mayer did an amazing job covering this Beatles song
This is just a beautiful combination of two unbelievable musicians singing a Beatles song and they kill it. John & Keith, unbelievable!🎵🎶🎵
Two straight men bringing out the best in each other.
