John is so egoless here, just complimenting the song perfectly... he's so much more humble than he gets credit for

[robertfalani]

Love how Mayers solo didnt overwhelm Alecs performance. Melodic and balanced. Mayer is a living legend. Alec lesssgoo!

[completemss]

Am I the only who thinks that their voices kind of reminds me of Alec being the innocent side of our childhood and then Mayer as the matured adult reminiscing of his times as a kid? I dunno seems like it to me

and I cri to their harmony :')

[metalboy]

Am I the only one that's going to say how stunning John was here? Alex made the song complete on himself but John made it perfect without taking the fame at all he just stood there and made such beautiful harmonies mixing his voice with Alec and the guitar softly on the background gave it a new vibe but didn't ruin anything from the old one. JM is my fav artist and here again he shows why. Alec you're amazing keep doing what you are doing hopefully this will be placed on spotify.

"It's 2019 and a crowd of a couple hundreds of teens cheered at the BEGINNING of a guitar solo. Everything is not lost."

Alec vocals plus John Mayer’s guitar skills and voice can mean only one thing = PURE PERFECTION 👌

[EstebanTalero]

*John's incredibly mature humility here is something of a true living legend...*



Even when this dude Alec introduces him, John doesn't wanna take the spotlight off the young blood, instead he just wants to _add new layers_ (all in a balanced fashion) _of profound feelings that the song can now give_ --- thanks to him. Man, John Mayer is one of the greatest artists of our time. We just don't realize that yet; hopefully future generations do :)

This was amazing to see live. You deserve the world man. You are such an inspiration to millions including myself


Never stop being you!

3:09 for the magic
John's vocal and guitar solo is just right on point. what an amazing guy

[blueguitar]

I remember when Alec mentioned in an interview that he wanted to collaborate with John Mayer and finally he is doing it. I live ur dream with you Alec.
Congrats!!! U did it (Y)

[chrisgarbett]

My favourite part is JM’s little lick at 1:48 and how a select few of the crowd knew what a treat they were in for!

[sicboi]

John's solos always kills me dead. This one was so beautiful and so well integrated to the song. Well done too Alec, must've been huge to play with your idol and hero.

[amaalmoorad]

I love that he managed to do it with john Mayer.... Well done bubba <3

Edit: thanks for all the likes

[leilaj.]

I love u so much Alec, your voice is so unique!

[mdougf]

Fucking cool! It’s so so cool that John supports all of these upcoming artists taking over the game (like Shawn Mendes). All of these kids look up to Mayer and Mayer is like a mentor to them and he lets them take the limelight and is just there killing it and supporting them.

I'm a simple man, I see Alec Benjamin I click

[rain]

Him wearing a pink hoodie and lime green pants is the confidence that I need 😂 btw he has a wonderful raw (in-auto tuned) voice

[yliu]

John Mayer's solo always takes things to the next level!!!

[heraldhangly]

That’s a bloody dream team if I’ve ever seen one!!

"The Blues don't change" - Albert King. For 20 years Mayer has been introducing Blues to a different generation of people and by the looks of things, He ain't stopping anytime soon.
