Hello, everybody!!!!!Let’s talk a little bit about John Mayer and his song Comfortable, from the album “Inside wants out”. First, the writer: John Clayton Mayer (born on October 16, 1977) is an American Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter and guitarist. Originally from Connecticut, he briefly attended Berklee College of Music before moving to Atlanta, Georgia in 1998, where he refined his skills and began gaining a following. After originally performing mainly acoustic rock, in 2005 he made a transition towards the blues genre with the formation of the John Mayer Trio. The blues influence can also be seen on his album Continuum, released in September 2006. Mayer won two Grammy awards at the 49th Grammy Awards in February 2007, Best Pop Vocal Album for Continuum and Best Male Pop Vocal Performance for "Waiting on the World to Change."
Now, about the song: the lyrics is about a girl that he met… but still loves. But, as most of the time, I found a mistake!!!!!!!
Here it goes the lyrics!
Comfortable
John Mayer
I just remembered that time at the market
snuck up behind me and jumped on my shopping cart
and rolled down aisle five
you looked behind you to smile back at me
crashed into a rack full of magazines
they asked us if we could leave
I can't remember what went wrong last September
though I'm sure you'd remind me if you had to
our love was comfortable and so broken in
I sleep with this new girl I'm still getting used to
my friends all approve,
say "she's gonna be good for you"
they throw me high fives
she says the Bible is all that she reads
and prefers that I not use profanity
your mouth was so dirty
life of the party and she swears that she's artsy
but you could distinguish Miles from Coltrane
our love was comfortable and so broken in
she's perfect
so flawless
or so they say
she thinks I can't see the smile that she's faking
and poses for pictures that aren't being taken
I loved you
grey sweatpants
no makeup
so perfect
our love was comfortable and so broken in
she's perfect
so flawless
I'm not impressed
I want you back
Well… “and prefers that I not use profanity”????
NOT use??? Normally, people write “Don’t” in stead of “Not” in these situations, but we’re taking about John Mayer! He can… because of that “license” that I already commented in this blog.
That’s all, folks!
Peace!
