His covers and renditions are unique and legendary.definitely pays most of the songs he covers tribute. which im sure petty and hendrix appreciate. contrary to everyones opinions.His musician ship is untouched so far in the past 10 years.

i like it

he does it pretty finely but it annoys me that he says Free Fallin different, a very important part of the song

100% correct. i wish everyone would take that stance instead of comparing and criticizing

best musician on the planet period. no discussion

I liked it, except for one thing. Every time he sang "Free fallin'" he had to add that extra "fallin'", which annoyed the hell out of me. If he hadn't done that I would probably like this better than the original.

Wow...not to be disrespectful to Tom Petty as he did write this song (far as i know) but Mayers voice is in a different league! Much better pitch control, tonality etc.

Much prefer his take on the song aswell:)
totally agree with longwayhome617!
great musicianship!

You have an amazing voice,when I listen to you I cant even explain how I feel.
longwayhome617 (January 9, 2009 at 1:02 am)
:) Don't tell me how to look at it thanks. It's a fantastic rendition of the song (it's not supposed to be a cover; if it were a cover, he would not have changed it so much and made it his own). If you can't recognize great musicianship when it smacks you in the face, spare us your opinion on music as you're ruining the point of it.

you cant compare this to the original because john mayer isnt trying to cover the song he is doing his own version.

This is a horrible cover no matter how you look at it. It's like Three 6 Mafia did a cover of Free Falling. It hurts my ears that bad.

I love his voice, it's unique but beautiful
Vakula9 (January 8, 2009 at 10:26 pm)
no offence, but I think this version is much better than original. I mean, listen to his voice - it's really brilliant!
Anyway this is one of best covers i've ever seen;)

Not as good as Tom Petty's original song.... far from it.

That's a little drastic. There are some great artists out there today. JM is one of them, though.

Very James Taylor'ish

oh ok.
mazkorb (January 8, 2009 at 10:23 am)
wow. everything in this was perfect. just perfect
ttienshark666 (January 8, 2009 at 2:52 am)
man, it is hard to remake such a good song such as tom petty and have it be better! that never happens, some may not agree, but all i know, is that john mayer is what is saving our music generation today. seriously thank you god for john because without him, we would be somewhat lost in music today.
