The amount of smart and consummate musicianship that is going on in this video is so, so underrated. This is what it is like to watch pop musicians work at the top of their game. There is talent oozing off even the nooks and crannies of that stage.
While i don't disagree that they are, in fact, Pop musicians, this is R&B baby! Rhythm and freaking Blues, and they absolutely smashed it! Pop would be more "produced", more danceable, and more of a product ( which isn't a bad thing ), but there's a distinction to be made and i think it's very important to not confuse the two. Great comment btw!😁
if you listen to her talking parts on the USA voice, you will realise you are correct, she is everything you'd imagine, such a nice woman, she sings to a contestant too, the 'lily' song, check it.
No she has the talent she is the female Elvis of this past Generation along with Adele. I respect her more cuz she was so Hot and she stopped wearing makeup like 8-10 years ago like in this Video. She has none on and at first I was like Damn. But after I saw her her Soul and Voice she went to prove to Young Girl's out there you do t git to be a Whore bag Slut like No talent Katie Perry who can't Sing live. And that Man Beast Beyonce who even lip sync The National Anthem, LOL like WTF does that but that fake bitch. There all Studio fake Bitches. Just like 2PAC said about the Studio Gangsta. She's even more beautiful with No make-up and what a voice and you can tell she loves and believes in God which she has Said. Which is why her Career has not exploded any Bigger. Cuz she would t sell her Soul. A lot of you don't know the sick Shit and rules and things you got to do and pay to be a Huge Star.
Alicia and John are among a few artists in the early 2000s era that have elevated themselves to all-time greats with all time-classic songs. I can easily imagine people still vibing to If I Aint Got You and Gravity some 30-40 years from now, in the same way that we are still vibing to timeless 70s and 80s songs from time to time.
These are poeple who are truly passionate into music. Who isn't just making music for fame and money. But who showers us light and love, gives us inspiration to keep going in life. I love both of them💕
I love how they're just a couple of friends jamming but they're legends and it's Times Square....not an ardent follower of either John Mayer or Alicia Keys I do love a couple of their songs individually but I keep coming back to this particular live performance time and time again coz they just up there vibing ❤
Maria Pia I think it’s an uncontrollable laugh when you realise how good something is. How often does she hear other people perform on her song, to hear John Mayer sing it his way and make it sound good too must be amazing.
"It's really wonderful to come across people who freely share valuable information online. You never know what kind of knowledge you might stumble upon that could have a lasting impact on your life."
"Don't procrastinate when it comes to saving and investing. Don't wait for the perfect timing; start now because the current moment is the best time to invest."

I apologize for interrupting, but I have been searching for assistance with this type of trading as my work consumes most of my time, leaving me with limited opportunities to focus on trading. How can I get to know him?
@@fruitdemer201 Yeah.. she has both. Why are you trying to dictate what someone else can talk about? It's okay to stop and admire how naturally beautiful she is as well.
Andra Piers how is he lying? I watch this and get the same exact feeling. She is the most beautiful person on the planet. Her looks, voice, charisma and charm aren’t mutually exclusive. She’s just beautiful inside and out in every way possible. Try not to be triggered so much. You can’t even let a compliment go. Life’s too short baby. 💯love
Alicia is so beautiful. She was born to bring and sing us this song. Every time she does, it is a sermon and a reminder of what really matters. This is my favorite performance of this song. Thank you for sharing your talent with us all. It's made the world a better place to live in.
Omg! I was so deep inside of this performance that I hated when it ended - and Alicia’s beauty was emphasized by her totally natural inner beauty that no one on this planet could compare to - I will treasure this forever and probably beyond! Their voices complimented each other completely and his guitar solo was mesmerizing- This was MAGICAL! Thank you, Alicia and John
This last week has been extremely difficult with radiation treatments for cancer. No energy can barely move. Now I feel life in me because of these amazing performances by Alicia Keys and John Mayer. Thank you so much.
Some people live for the fortune Some people live just for the fame Some people live for the power, yeah Some people live just to play the game Some people think that the physical things Define what's within And I've been there before, but that life's a bore So full of the superficial Some people want it all But I don't want nothing at all If it ain't you, baby If I ain't got you, baby Some people want diamond rings Some just want everything But everything means nothing If I ain't got you, yeah Some people search for a fountain That promises forever young Some people need three dozen roses And that's the only way to prove you love them Hand me the world on a silver platter And what good would it be?

It’s the way Alicia smiled wholehearted, bare faced, no makeup, and John lost himself in music that makes this performance so intimate, so human. I feel like watching just people, like you and me, making beautiful music on a stage in New York.
Her smile is other-worldly for sure. It does make this performance very intimate. Such a gorgeous woman, I suspect both inside and out. Although I doubt she's not wearing any makeup. It's just very tastefully restrained, which is a breath of fresh air in this day of so many looks that are way over the top.
my future son: why did you and mom name my sister Rose? Me: because, your mother loves roses my future son: Oh ok! thanks dad! Me: No problem, Alicia Keys & John Mayer - If I ain't got you - Gravity (Better audio quality)
Me: "Did you just copy/paste the exact top comment from the John Mayer live at LA video?" You: "Yes, I want to get internet likes but I'm not creative enough"
John plays just a few notes on his guitar to start his solo and the crowd already starts cheering. That man makes a guitar tell a fucking story, my god
Probably one of the very few guitar heroes in post-2000s era And probably the most all-round one... Aside from guitar skills and musicality, he sings well and is very good looking But he is reaching his mid-40s...
Hi! I’ve written a song called Real Life Dance. It’s about having a dream and it being like a romance in your head but then turning into something real like a dance. czcams.com/video/DV7nUQj-9gg/video.html
What a true beauty Alicia is.... not just in looks (although those are certainly there) but in spirit, personality, heart, warmth, integrity, kindness, intellect, intelligence, creativity, talent, and on and on, ad infinitum...♥️
As a 30 year old man that has CZcams playing most of the day, at work and home... This is my favorite video of all time. I also never comment on videos. Thousands and thousands of hours of CZcams, this is the one.
Nobody said 30 is old! It's just a frame of reference, this man has been around since the inception of CZcams yet comes back to this video. I understand, as a 32 yr old who primarily watches CZcams
I'm an old man. Doing a lot of thinking about how fast life passes by and how temporary our lives are. Every now and then the right people come together at the right time and create a few moments that are so perfect. I am so lucky to be alive during the time of CZcams. Any time that I'm feeling down, I can click on a special video like this and be instantly transported to a few perfect moments, where all my cares and worries just float away.
@Kilo Mintoni sucking corporate ass gets you money, but theres no question he is talented at playing music though. Seems like you're focusing on the wrong aspects of music when theres 3 people who actually play their instruments on stage performing live. It was free form. not a basic syncopated corporate song and dance performance you normally see.
@@Aswinishere It was bad enough the superbowl was ruined with the trash music the last time and this trash music does not need to be at a superbowl either.
This song really made me appreciate the impact a good drummer has on a song. The beat doesn't sound that complicated, but I wouldn't want it to be any more than it is. The timing and every stroke is impeccable. Doesn't overpower the song, it's perfect.
Drummers ALWAYS are the musical leaders. Anyone who has been part of a band knows that the drummer is the one who have the timming and order for the rest. Thats why drummers always give that one, two, three with the sticks before the jam starts I played the guitar and my best jams have come from joining my man Richard vibin in the drumms
True, but you can't deny how shallow the music scene as a whole has become. I don't wanna single anyone out, but we live in a world where Cardi B won a Grammy. There's hundreds of rappers out there with more depth and message behind their lyrics. To me, if someone can't appreciate the magic that happened on this stage between John and Alicia, then you've either never played live music a day in your life, or you don't have an ear for all the subtle nuances in the music before you. The band went seamlessly from her song, to his, back to hers. And the lyrics for the two, sounds like he wrote Gravity in response to her song. It's a full circle mindfuck lol

This is one of the most real performances ever. Just three artists enjoying their talent together. The vibe was beautiful, I’m so glad this was documented so I could experience it too
the intimacy of her performance is striking. She's in the middle of Times Square surrounding by thousands of people, but the way she gently croons into the microphone across those first few bars makes you feel like she's singing just to you. It's gentle and delicate, before striking a high note just as a warning shot of how powerful her voice really is
@@kezza10mail just because something is unrehearsed, doesn't make it half-assed. Because they are pros means they can go out and just feed off of eachother and make it sound great.
It's talent, it comes from years of daily work and practice. They would most likely play for free because to them its their calling and what they love to do.
This is a damn masterpiece. I come back to this every few months to watch and still am so impressed. Alicia's voice is like bottled diamonds, she contains one of the most beautiful voices on earth and I'm glad her passion is shared with us all.
Just unbelievable stunning musical performance … Alicia’s vocal ability at the end with John’s guitar is genius … she is beyond heavenly sounds from her voice and her fingers. Her timing 🙇🙇🙇
three absolute legends in their own respective genres coming together and just being immersed in the music and the vibe is so beautiful to see. it’s wonderful watching people who are so passionate do what they do and be fully in it
Essa apresentação me causa algum sentimento indescritível. É tão lindo, tão único e tão cativante que nunca vi nada parecido. Vez enquando venho rever essa obra de arte! Alicia sempre perfeita e o John conseguiu melhorar ainda mais nesse dueto!
Honestly, this video wouldn't be the same without the side cameras facing Alicia and John. You can tell everybody on that stage has an impenetrable passion for music, I love it.
That transition into gravity was some of the smoothest shit I’ve ever heard
Smoothest shit doesn't do it justice!!! That baby is da bomb!!!
5:41
Seriously. Even Alicia felt it.
Watch the Norah Jones 'Don't know why' /John Mayer 'your body is a wonderland' it's cute as well
Caleb Locke I am awestruck! Oh also I’ve watched it 9000000 times. This is the musical Mecca.
“take your time, we just up here vibin’” im literally considering for this to be my senior quote

I have listened to this video over 100 times and it takes me to a place of real joy every time. Thank you so much for this Alicia and John...
Same here vro.. Any other videos that give you that feeling?
When Mayer plays guitar you can tell that he is consumed entirely by the music. Beautiful.
I want to feel that. This is my fam..my jam! So much talent and truth here!
My fav
It's a great feeling when you get that flow
Same as when Alicia Keys and Tori Amos play their pianos...consumed in the music
아헤가오 존 메이어...
Besides being ridiculously talented, Alicia Keys just looks like the nicest sweetest person in the entire world :-)
And extremely beautiful I bet she has no or little make up. I am very jealous. Lol!

Whose watching in 2024 one of my all time favs
You can tell that Alicia, John, backup singers and musicians love what they do. There's no faking that.
Tele Opinions can’t fake the funk
My man Questlove ain't a backup musician tho dont do him like that lmao
These are poeple who are truly passionate into music. Who isn't just making music for fame and money. But who showers us light and love, gives us inspiration to keep going in life. I love both of them💕
They are in times square right??? They better be about it
@@chipskylark8869 yes
This is by far one of the best live collabs in the history of music
Totally agree. BB King and Clapton is also on top
John Mayer Trio is the best collaboration , and then John with Keith Urban
Frank Sinatra and Celine Dion, personally the best for me.
This was really beautiful
the freddie mercury tribute as well
Goosebumps. Every damn time. This is the real definition of pure, joy music. Beautiful, honest, and amazing.
I love how they're just a couple of friends jamming but they're legends and it's Times Square....not an ardent follower of either John Mayer or Alicia Keys I do love a couple of their songs individually but I keep coming back to this particular live performance time and time again coz they just up there vibing ❤
Same. Great watching their love for their craft and each other...
Just miss the normal days so much.

That's how good they are. They got the busiest place in the world to vibe with them.
Professional
Just thankful no one got hurt. I’m scared to go to stuff like this these days without being in fear of being shot or blown up.
This last week has been extremely difficult with radiation treatments for cancer. No energy can barely move. Now I feel life in me because of these amazing performances by Alicia Keys and John Mayer. Thank you so much.

Same here in Bulacan

alicia is one of those singers who seems like they truly enjoy every preformance
I never get tired of this song. They are beautiful together
This song really made me appreciate the impact a good drummer has on a song. The beat doesn't sound that complicated, but I wouldn't want it to be any more than it is. The timing and every stroke is impeccable. Doesn't overpower the song, it's perfect.
That's true!!! Great point
Without them drums this doesn't hit like it do!
It's called "in the pocket". It's always fun to listen and play along such individuals.
That Questlove on the drums, he is an absolute beats.
Drummers ALWAYS are the musical leaders. Anyone who has been part of a band knows that the drummer is the one who have the timming and order for the rest. Thats why drummers always give that one, two, three with the sticks before the jam starts I played the guitar and my best jams have come from joining my man Richard vibin in the drumms
The sight of Alicia Keys bitting her lip while smiling, surrounded by her beautiful curly hair, must be my 2019 highlight. And it's only January...
Agosto de 2023 e eu estou ouvindo essa linda canção mais uma vez ❤
heyyy from Spain my brother
This is my favorite way to listen to both songs!! It's like they were meant to be played together!! ❤ I love it!!
I come back to this video every now and then... I'm convinced this is one of the greatest live performances of all time.
AGREED. the world would be a much better place if we all listened to this duet once a day.
Same, I absolutely love her smile and giggle when John starts singing her song. They are so great together.
Yup, love it when artists come together and jam out!

Those two just made spiritual love right in front of all of us.
mmmmm yes yes it happened 💖
@@isabellcruz6329 I hope they make baby's 😜
Those 3 we can’t forget questlove

Quest in the house
@@sauceaberycrayon6643 lol poor quest was the camera man.....
Holy cow that was amazing. Both are extremely talented and make beautiful music together. I could watch this video over and over and over..
Spectacular vibes performed by talented musicians-Keys and Mayer.
More soul on that one stage than in the entire music industry today
Hmmmm..... okay.
I totally agree
They're part of todays music industry
True, but you can't deny how shallow the music scene as a whole has become. I don't wanna single anyone out, but we live in a world where Cardi B won a Grammy. There's hundreds of rappers out there with more depth and message behind their lyrics. To me, if someone can't appreciate the magic that happened on this stage between John and Alicia, then you've either never played live music a day in your life, or you don't have an ear for all the subtle nuances in the music before you. The band went seamlessly from her song, to his, back to hers. And the lyrics for the two, sounds like he wrote Gravity in response to her song. It's a full circle mindfuck lol
Snarky Puppy? P J Morton's Gumbo Unplugged album?
It's still out there
This is just incredible in every sense of the word. Who else is still here in 2021?
I was just thinking the SAME thing. This is music for the SOUL.
Right here baby! Hoody hop!!!!!!! Love this.
yeeeeeaaah
That was absolutely AMAZING!!! Wow!
Lindos!!! 🥰
One of the smoothest live mashup duets I've ever heard. It's 2021, and it still be vibin'....
Period.

Amazing duo.
I feel like I should be paying to watch this
Dude this was soo epic
same tho
I felt so. So i turned my wifi off
I just saw this comment 4 years ago 😂
@@pk-xe4pw 🤣🤣
I love that this woman is letting her natural beauty side and out take center stage in her life. Alicia is awesome!
How could I see this video for the first time only now? Goosebumps!!!
This is one of the most real performances ever. Just three artists enjoying their talent together. The vibe was beautiful, I’m so glad this was documented so I could experience it too
💯🙂💕💋💋💕🦋🦋
3 artists... Can you not hear quest keeping beautiful time?
Are you excluding Questlove, my guy?
@@joshyarborough1265 I could... Quest was great, he gave the backpower of the whole perfomance..
There are a lot more than 3 artist in that stage.
the intimacy of her performance is striking. She's in the middle of Times Square surrounding by thousands of people, but the way she gently croons into the microphone across those first few bars makes you feel like she's singing just to you. It's gentle and delicate, before striking a high note just as a warning shot of how powerful her voice really is
You put too much thought into to this lol
@@mattsullivan8811 try putting effort into something once, it'll change your life
I felt the same 🔥
Lol love how you keep deleting my comments
Damn! Your comment gave me the chills.
beautiful collaboration from multiple artists, my goodness
This sounds so unrehearsed and that makes it beautiful. Its blowing my mind how well everything is flowing.
it's super rehearsed, that's why it flows so effortlessly, the pro's don't half arse it
@@kezza10mail just because something is unrehearsed, doesn't make it half-assed. Because they are pros means they can go out and just feed off of eachother and make it sound great.
It's talent, it comes from years of daily work and practice. They would most likely play for free because to them its their calling and what they love to do.
they're professionals. simple. and also talent.
if it looks rehearsed, then that means they messed up.. it's supposed to be flow.
This is a damn masterpiece. I come back to this every few months to watch and still am so impressed. Alicia's voice is like bottled diamonds, she contains one of the most beautiful voices on earth and I'm glad her passion is shared with us all.
Ditto. I first heard this a year or two ago and could never forget her sweet voice blended in with his smoothe tones

This one needs an eye. But it was filmed in France.
After all of these years she sings this song like it’s being sung for the very first time. So incredible.
Same…
Same. Same.
Just unbelievable stunning musical performance … Alicia’s vocal ability at the end with John’s guitar is genius … she is beyond heavenly sounds from her voice and her fingers. Her timing 🙇🙇🙇
three absolute legends in their own respective genres coming together and just being immersed in the music and the vibe is so beautiful to see. it’s wonderful watching people who are so passionate do what they do and be fully in it
I love how natural Alicia is here... She's so comfortable with her skin. :) Not to mention their amazing voices.
that guitar solo played by Mayer had me choked. damn he's like a fine wine.
That gravity transition is smooth af👌
That was absolutely AMAZING!!
I need this on spotify ❤😪
💯
Alicia must be the most beautiful person in the whole world,not just the outer appearance. The energy she gives out is just so surreal
🤣
"just up here vibin" 😍
She's the definition of positivity
Alicia is the definition of an Angel who walks amongst us. 😊
I agree
bro the band members absolutely vibing on a different level to John Mayers guitar is fuckin sick
I know man. He kills it though as usual, but man knows his strings
how about those double bends at the beginning of Gravity?!?
Mad vibing.
The best version of these two songs ever, they both absolutely killed it. 🔥🔥🔥
Prob one of my fave collabs ever. Been coming back to this video for years.
I'm watching again, and again, and again! 2019 still there?
Yep. :)
Wow pure mastery
yep
when was this actually?
KuraY kuray Me too
Oh hey, real musicians still exist in the mainstream.
Randall Wetmore I’m glad someone said it😂
Haha
Not many, sadly...but I'll take what I can get!
@Bye Bye Bury the hatchet, bud. Life is too short for grudges.
well said dude ;)
The best R n B / Soul artist of my generation hands down. I was born in 86. She’s always been a pure star from the jump.
Born in 91! Love her so much!
Wow, what a wonderful performance. I can’t believe I had the pleasure to watch. Wish I could’ve been there.
This is probably one of the greatest transitions of songs ever
Rendition
@Off2 Thailand segue is for conversation but transition is the term in music.
wypierdalaj, POLSKA PRZEJMUJE TEN FILM!!!!!
Bener bgt ampe merinding
Mmmmm
It's February 2019 and those smooth Vocals still puts a Smile on my Face
Oh my god me too!
Yessssss 💖💖💖💖
YAAAAAAAASSSSSSS, KWEEN! Agreed, hunty!
me too
Shit hits the soul!
Essa apresentação me causa algum sentimento indescritível. É tão lindo, tão único e tão cativante que nunca vi nada parecido. Vez enquando venho rever essa obra de arte! Alicia sempre perfeita e o John conseguiu melhorar ainda mais nesse dueto!
Simplesmente maravilhoses
it's impossible not to fall in love with Alicia while watching this
totally agree
But im falling in love with mayers 😂
I always found her a hottie. What's not to like?
Alexandros Papadopoulos Love her more than my own GF
That's why I only listen to this, I caught a glimpse of her smiling before she called out John and I was like:"NOPE! I'm a married man..."
Honestly, this video wouldn't be the same without the side cameras facing Alicia and John. You can tell everybody on that stage has an impenetrable passion for music, I love it.
czcams.com/video/SvVld96DnbY/video.html
Coming back to watch this multiple times, just such an amazing collab. 🥰
Always GOOd to hear ❤ Talented singers. Love this song 😊
I can't believe that I never knew this existed until now.... So good
You and I, both. Shameful, criminally shameful.
Same, the scenes from us not knowing are almost criminal
Same here
Saaaame!!!
I am today years old👀
