The Talk: John Mayer & Neil Young

Video by Jonas Hollerup Helle

"A talk show with people who never met and conversations that never took place."

New video: Dolly Parton & Brian Wilson

The best time in this channel’s history will, undoubtedly, be this current time when 80% of the viewers have no idea what they are witnessing. Brilliant.

Took me a second to realize this is edited together. I was like, "this is the strangest conversation I've ever witnessed".

[jakemarlow]

This reminds me of almost every conversation I had with my last girlfriend. At a certain point, you have to realize that living on two different planets will never work.

“Oh, that’s gonna be hard to beat” 🤣🤣 …the most John Mayer response ever.

[jakemarlow]

This is probably the best parody of "Between Two Ferns" that I've seen ... Bravo!!!

[AndyPearson]

Genius editing. You absolutely had me for the majority of this video 🙈😂😂

[paradise_valley]

Genius editing. Made me think that this was real even when I’ve already seen John’s interview separately. So perfect together. Bravo!

[robfalgiano]

Yep, Neil nailed it. "Love, that's the message." When we act from love we cannot really ever fail.

[admirmedic]

0:42 was masterful: “the piano? … the piano”, and the little hand motion, 😂

[monx]

I love the interruptions... this is next level, game changing. unsurpassed in the medium. fake interview edits will never be the same

[kimberlykairo]

Another beautiful interview by legend John Mayer, given by legendary Neil Young. What a beautiful world that would be. Love it. Love them

[laburgy]

"That's gonna be hard to beat"!!! Is everything a competition to John Mayer....love John, best advice you'll ever get.

[everestdesign]

That last little look by JM was priceless. The unanswered high-five.

[jennifermay]

This is crazy hilarious! It's like a duet between a classical musician and a salsa dancer, it makes no sense 😂

[ds]

Holy shitt man! this felt so real.. Like how they'd actually talk about stuff.. Neil Young's had a huge impact on Mayer's songwriting process.. This hits deep.

[andresacuna]

This is one of the best edits I've seen

[analogalien]

I love Neil young. Just lost my heart of gold, she is, was..😢41 and will be forever my one true love. She has finally gotten her wings. I miss her so much. Analog alien 👽 Livin in a broke down palace in a digital world. Life and death are just two sides of the same coin. Without the one there cannot be the other. Please tell those you love how much they mean to you NOW. Don’t sleep on it because tomorrow may not ever come .
Blessings everyone

I know this never happened but this looks 100% like it could have. The dialogue is the only thing that sort of gives it away, but even then the conversation feels like they could really be talking with one another. The way Neil just sorta interrupts what Johns saying just to repeat him and then derail the conversation is perfect. The way John wants to talk about himself but then has to uncomfortably sit through Neil talking is perfect. This is like a pingtrip edit but even more real.


Neil: What if everybody lined up at the green pump?!
John: ...yeah I was gonna go DO that...

[EvanNighswander]

Two of my favourite artists of all time. Kinda expected more
