John Mayer Covers MJ’s “Human Nature”

Earlier today during Michael Jackson’s memorial service at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, CA musician John Mayer covered Jackson’s song “Human Nature” off of the 1982 Thriller album.

I was watching as the event was broadcast live on television and sat in amazement during this performance.  Mayer chose not to sing any vocals during this performance, so aside from some back up singing during the choruses the song is more of a musical piece.  I think it truly says a lot about the respect Mayer has for Jackson that he didn’t try to make “Human Nature” anything more than it already is.  My opinion (as a very big fan of Michael’s work) is that “Human Nature” has always had one of the most touching melodies in modern music.  I like that John stayed away from flashier riffs and solos and decided to leave the song as it was, sans a slight Mayer layer.  I love me some Mayer layers.

BTW, it’s my 22nd birthday.  Hollerpham.

Yeah, You Are Looking Pretty JoBro Tonight…

A word of warning to my curly haired comrades:

IF YOU LET YOUR JEWFRO FLY SOMEONE IS GONNA CALL YOU A JONAS BROTHER.

Now I know what you’re thinking, that your friends are to cool to make references to the Jonas Brothers but let me say that last night one of my snobbiest music elitist post-modern Bauhuas loving acquaintances told me “You are looking pretty JoBro tonight, Kacey.”  So if it can happen to me, it can happen to you.

But I’m not really that upset about it because they are some attractive little people.  And on a side note: they do write their own songs.  Anybody can check it out over at BMI.com.  Served.

I like to think I have Nick Jonas hair and not Kevin Jonas hair.

(On the side:  Look at all that weight I’ve lost)

Edit:  I thought about it for a while and maybe my friends are comparing me to the Jonas Brothers because I pull crap like this:

I Will Follow You Into the Dark

You’d be foolish to think this was for anyone but you.
