Not a day’s gone by I haven’t dreamed of being back on stage in the open air, playing the music I love among the friends I cherish. Where the Light Is: John Mayer Live in Los Angeles, an Album by John Mayer. "Not a day’s gone by I haven’t dreamed of being back on stage in the open air, playing the music I love among the friends I cherish," said Mayer. The 43-year-old recently announced that he will be embarking on an American tour with rock band Dead and Company this August. In what is shaping up to be an exciting year for Mayer, new material is not the only thing that fans can look forward to. The album, which will be available on 16 July 2021, will comprise a total of 10 songs, including 'Last Train Home', 'Shouldn't Matter but it Does', 'Why You No Love Me', 'Wild Blue', 'Shot in The Dark', 'Til The Right One Comes', 'All I Want Is to Be with You', and Mayer's previously related singles 'New Light', 'I Guess I Just Feel Like', and 'Carry Me Away'. The video was helmed by Midland's Cameron Duddy - who is also the mind behind the music videos for Bruno Mars' ' 24K Magic' and Fifth Harmony's 'Worth It' - alongside his wife, fashion and portrait photographer Harper Smith.Īside from teasing 'Last Train Home' in the lead up to its release, Mayer also took to Twitter to share the concept behind Sob Rock. 'Last Train Home' also features the vocals of country singer Maren Morris, whom Mayer performed alongside at the 63rd Grammy Awards earlier this year.Īn accompanying music video for the song premiered on Mayer's official YouTube channel at 12 PM SGT/PHT on 4 June. There's a security blanket aspect about that sound that reminds me of a safer time." In fact, I’d “lover” it if you did.In an interview with Wall Street Journal, he explained his decision to adopt an 80s-inspired sound for the single and the album: "I asked myself, 'What music makes me feel like everything's going to be OK?' And it's the music I listened to growing up in the '80s. Let your friends eat pizza for breakfast. Prop up a spooky skeleton and just leave him there all the time. Taylor Swift, I’m begging you: Please make more daring decisions about what you do in your apartment. Much like (please sing to the tune of “Lover”): We can do our laundry when it’s dirty … or … We can fix the pillows on the couch to look nice … when company is coming over.
“It’s not about that being a crazy thing,” she said. “I had toyed with the idea of ‘We could leave the Christmas lights up ’til April,’” she said in an interview for the New York Times’ “Diary of a Song.” But she ultimately decided against it, instead showcasing the striking ordinariness of living life with a chosen mate. In the song, Swift continues, making an arguably even smaller concession, singing, “We could let our friends crash in the living room / This is our place, we make the call.”Īnd indeed, two months after John Mayer first pointed this out, Swift herself agreed that the “January” decision is not something out of the ordinary. Everyone keeps their Christmas lights up until January.’” I get a little chuckle because she says, ‘We can keep the Christmas lights up ’til January.’ And I go, ‘You’re insane. “Love the song,” Mayer said on November 18, on Current Mood, the Instagram Story–based talk show he hosts. It also tells the story of what absolutely every single person does with regard to Christmas lights if they choose to hang them: leave them up ’til January.
The song begins, “We could leave the Christmas lights up ’til January / This is our place, we make the rules.” It goes on to tell the story of two lovers cohabiting in love, and it is, of course, a wonderful song to sing to your dog. That said, I need to tell you that John Mayer is right about Taylor Swift’s titular Lover single, “Lover.” This is an unfortunate situation, but we have to remain honest with ourselves and others if we’re going to maintain the upper hand. It brings me no pleasure to admit that a man is correct.
