John Mayer is a seven -time

Grammy winner, a multi -platinum selling artist, and a prodigious guitarist who's played with everyone from Eric Clapton to Ed Sheeran.

But in recent years, you might know him better for making headlines than for making music.

From tabloid -ready falls in and out of love with famous women to a notorious tell -all Playboy interview.

Then, he disappeared from the spotlight, avoiding social media and interviews and building a quieter life in Montana.

I caught up with him in L .A as he works on a new,

deeply personal album and tries to put the focus back on his very first love.

When I discovered the guitar when I was 13, all of the creative energy went into that.

So I was sitting in class writing lyrics.

I was in math class on one of those uneven desks, writing lyrics.

One story that's out there is that

Back to the Future was the genesis of the guitar idea.

That was the big

Rocky moment for a lot of kids who were into music.

And that for me was like the moment the nerd gets revenge, right?

Like, who is this nerdy Marty McFly kid and then he gets to play basically...

Blowing people's minds.

Yeah, blowing people's minds.

Which is a child fantasy, being the quiet kid in the room all of a sudden plugs in and plays.

Were you an outsider?

Were you popular?

That's a good question.

I had created this alter ego which was, by day, this sort of mild -mannered kid kid who nobody really saw

and then by night I would be in a room listening to Charlie Parker

and John Coltrane and Freddie King and and Jimi Hendrix

and Eric Clapton and I was playing along with CDs and then I went to school and

it's very difficult but then you ultimately got to do

that you pursued

that as an adult it happened really fast for me really really fast by 2000 I I signed my record deal.

2001, record came out.

Roof or squares.

Yeah, yeah.

Body is Wonderland is everywhere.

Radio loves you.

Runaway.

You're transformed.

Yeah.

What's that experience like?

It's just a rocket ride.

Were you ready for it?

Yeah, I was ready for it.

Everything that happened was, it made perfect sense to a guy like me.

If you'd asked somebody from Fairfield, Connecticut, what do you think's gonna happen to John?

So you go, oh yeah.

Yeah, absolutely.

He was going to hit it so hard that at first people were going to go,

great job, and he was never going to stop until he went off the rails.

I think you went off the rails, though.

You used that term.

In my way, based on what my payload was, I didn't have a drinking problem.

I wasn't...

It was a thinking man's...

It was a thinking man's fiasco, right?

It was like...

And it's a lot harder to explain to somebody.

When you're 23, three, and you begin your life at the top of the chart, and you've got that spunk,

and you go bring on the world, and you go, okay, here's a Grammy, and here's an audience, and you got it.

Now, when you invariably do find out that not everything you touch turns to gold, you've got a choice.

You either bleed out, or you tie off, right?

So what's the point at which you tied off?

I tied off after I went, all right, dude, you did a couple interviews where you were out of touch

and you were being a ham and you were basically breakdancing into a nitroglycerin plant, right?

Now you don't even have the chance that everybody's gonna love you ever again.

They handed me the Playboy interview before it came out and I knew that,

I knew, you could have sat down in front of me and said, John, that's not getting printed,

but I wanted you to know what would have happened had I not stopped that interview.

But do you think they shouldn't have printed that?

No!

I do think they should have printed it.

You just think there's a place for that moment of mercy.

Well, you give it to yourself.

You give it to yourself.

You know, you gotta give it to yourself.

But, you know, um...

In that period of time, I would have rather killed myself than been killed.

I was never gonna wrap my Corvette around a tree.

My high -speed crash was an intellectual one.

What was the moment where you first thought,

Okay, this is not what I want to be known for oh man the first time somebody misunderstands you

and says you're a womanizer

You don't consider yourself a womanizer no no absolutely not but

when you're crafty and you're clever and you go well I'm just going to

Be as Strange as they think I am so okay now you're on TMZ

And you're playing into the role you're leaning into the role right?

And then you lose, number one, you're not playing music anymore.

Number two, you're not feeling anything honestly.

And number three, you're not saying anything honestly.

You once said you abused the ability to express yourself.

Oh, yeah.

What's different now?

Oh, I know what I want.

I don't care if this video gets 500 ,000 views or 50 ,000 views or 5 ,000 views.

I'm not out to affect that anymore.

That's for me to care about.

That's for you to care about, man.

Are you susceptible yourself to...

Wanting the Twitter feedback, wanting the approval?

Yeah, that's why I pull myself off of it again.

I'm a recovered ego addict, and the only way that I can be sure

100

that I don't relapse is to admit that I constantly have this ego addiction every day.

101

So I do the Grammys and I go home, because if I stayed, I'd get high again.

102

And then I'd get high, and then I'd get low.

103

High on the approval.

104

Well, yeah.

105

You've already looked through Twitter, Everybody goes, it's great.

106

And then you're low again because you can't stop looking, or you get low because you read the one negative thing.

107

So I'm a recovered ego addict.

108

Like, this is not the first outfit I put on today.

109

I'm admitting that because that's my AA for being an egomaniac.

110

Are you gonna check

111

Twitter after this interview?

112

I will not check

113

Twitter, but I checked the mirror, the original Twitter.

114

The mirror, I checked my mentions in the glass how has this changed since you broke

115

there's new technology now instant feedback now right the technology

116

that I think I'm I'm confident enough to say is hurting music is

117

that musicians are are very self -conscious now they're very self -aware I see people sing

118

and I go they're hoping they do okay and they're gonna find out

119

if they do okay they're looking for the feedback they're singing

120

They're just hoping that when they get in the car on the way to dinner,

121

their face is lit up and they're checking to see if they did okay.

122

I could go on a sermon if I wanted to, but I just don't know how old fart it would sound.

123

I just don't want to call BS on things that aren't for me.

124

You have two choices.

125

You can look at Sam Smith and you can say, you can be all cynical and go,

126

well, I knew sam smith when it was that because yeah

127

but they don't are you implying

128

that sam smith is trainer wheels for people who haven't heard

129

that no i don't i mean it but if you wanted to be cynical

130

you could listen to it and go oh i've heard that

131

when it was x y and z or something

132

and i'm kind of picking the guy out of a hat

133

because i like sam smith and i would use sam smith as an example for

134

so many great things i go oh well that they're doing that again like that's been done but you

135

You go, wait, don't hold your age against other people.

136

You know what I mean?

137

Because it's the first time they've ever gone da -da -da -ba -da -da -da -da.

138

And they go, wow, I've never heard someone sing like that.

139

You go, have it.

140

I want you to have it.

141

You think it's getting worse?

142

Yeah, because there's nobody to tell you what to do anymore.

143

Artists overthrew the record company heads, and the record company heads cannot tell an artist when to put a single up on their own,

144

you know, on their, you know, They put a clip of your song on Instagram, SoundCloud.

145

And they can say whatever they want.

146

And they can say whatever they want anytime they want.

147

There's no checks and balances.

148

And how's technology changing that?

149

When you look at, say, Taylor Swift coming out and saying, and I'm talking about Taylor Swift professionally here.

150

We have to be able to talk about Taylor Swift professionally.

151

We have to be able to talk about Taylor Swift.

152

So tell me about that.

153

When she comes out and says, I'm not putting it on Spotify.

154

Right.

155

That doesn't respect the artists and the writers enough.

156

I think that's cool.

157

I think that's really cool.

158

Uh, artists need the person with the loudest voice to speak for them, and...

159

Is she doing that?

160

I think so, when you say that.

161

You can go to the Met Ball.

162

You know, that's great.

163

That's a great way to use your voice.

164

You can go, I'm wearing Valentino.

165

Or you can use your voice to give things.

166

Well, now, some people that are cynical could say you're helping yourself, but it's trickle -down.

167

You're not saying I want this just for me.

168

I think that's a really cool thing for a musician to do.

169

Like, there's only, like, 2 % of the music industry has 80 % of all the media about it.

170

You know what I mean? there's like four people in the media who get all the press and

171

if any of those four people say

172

i want to speak for the other people who just would never make this a story the only reason

173

that we're talking about taylor swift taking spotify on is

174

because she's taylor swift and that's great you said you could do that

175

or you could go to the met gala yeah yeah i'm going to the met gala does it bother you

176

when you look at her or anyone else we're talking about in this conversation

177

and they've got that side of their public persona, too.

178

No!

179

Not at all.

180

Not at all.

181

Nothing bothers me anymore, man.

182

Do you still have that emotional reaction, though?

183

Yeah.

184

Taylor Swift, one of those four people.

185

I checked myself with it, but yeah.

186

Yeah.

187

There are gonna be times when I make music as popular or empirically valuable as that, in terms of making pop music,

188

that won't sell as many copies, and I'm fine with that.

189

You get to an age, you go, look, if I save a baby from a burning building and Kanye saves a baby from a burning building,

190

there's more Google News hits on Kanye.

191

I'm fine with it.

192

You and Kanye saving babies from buildings is a movie I want to see.

193

Now, together, this is what I'm trying to tell you, is together we're unstoppable.

194

But that's a great episode.

195

That's a new ER right there.

196

But all we're talking about is, like, um...

197

Being honest with yourself and what to ask for in this life.

198

I put out a song called Paper Doll.

199

The song never got listened to as a song.

200

It became a news story because of the lyrics.

201

But you must have known that that's what it was going to become when you wrote it.

202

I'm not in the business of telling people what the song's about.

203

I never said anything about it.

204

And now I just go, look, I can say the name Taylor Swift she's an artist, I'm an artist, let's just, everybody stop.

205

Nobody's got an incurable cancer.

206

We're rich people who get to live out our dreams.

207

Let's just stop it.

208

I'm a musician who's bigger than one song or one record.

209

So it's really more about the longevity of all the work that goes together.

210

And I'm just not interested in the things that won't last forever.

211

What have you found in Montana?

212

I just found home, man.

213

And it gives you outside perspective.

214

I'm going to have one wife, a certain number of children,

215

friends that are set, fans that will listen to the music that I make.

216

And the greatest moment for me was giving up the big fight.

217

The big fight to be this thing that gets off the airplane at LAX and floats through.

218

And I have a lot of admiration and envy sometimes for people that large.

219

I'll be standing by the front desk sometimes, being like, you know...

220

Anyone want to notice me?

221

Anybody want to notice me?

222

Is there a party that still wants to be One Direction?

223

Oh, that's such a good question.

224

Sure.

225

But it wants to be One Direction via Neil Young.

226

If you could say one thing to young John Mayer, say right before

227

Room for Squares, what's that message?

228

Just give him a hug, I guess.

229

There's nothing you could tell that kid.

230

There's nothing you could tell that kid.

231

I'd give him a hug, and then I'd go, this guy.

232

I'd say, that guy's really, really talented, but I don't want to be anywhere near him when that thing goes off.

233

You know what, this is what I would tell my young self.

234

You are now my young self.

235

What a handsome young me you are.

236

I'm trying.

237

There was never a shot.

238

There was never a shot of doing this perfectly.

239

It was never in the cards.

240

That's what I write people.

241

I wrote, I don't want to bring her into the conversation, but I wrote this new up -and -coming Australian rapper.

242

I don't want to give her name away, because there's so many of them, so she's hit.

243

And I said, this is it.

244

I said, don't be upset that you're feeling like you're just an inch away from having your cake here.

245

This is the new way it's going to be.

246

You're never going to do it seamlessly.

247

Success comes with hatred now.

248

Yeah, it just comes with, yeah, that's how we learn about things now.

249

And I write, hey, I'm John.

250

I just want to let you know that this feeling you're having, that you've become successful, but the world won't stop hating on you.

251

This is not a broken version of success.

252

This is the new version of success.

253

So we're doing this series on genius, and I promised you I would not put you in the position of describing yourself as a genius.

254

I think I've proven through this interview I am not a genius.

255

There's this other side you get to, and you don't get there very often.

256

I call it this other side, where while you're writing, you speak so much of your truth that you're even learning from it.

257

John Mayer it's like it's like a therapy session every time

258

I talk to you thank you man well for who is

259

that and now it's America's therapy session now it's America's that'll be three hundred

260

and twenty -five dollars insurance doesn't cover it

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
