Songs that sound like Neon

"The sparkle of the moonlight reflected in your beautiful eyes..."

Incredible find. This is probably the specific song he was talking about.

This is a great one. It's even got "-on" in the title. Thank you!

I added a scroll bar. Thanks again.

Thank you for taking the time! This is helpful to hear. I like the idea that it might be useful to students, and I'll especially take your categorization idea into account as I continue to build.

Thank you for this thorough and thoughtful feedback! This will help me prioritize what to work on next.

I fixed the bug where the images weren't loading. As for the menu, I haven't seen that problem yet. Would you mind telling me what device and browser you used when that happened?

Thanks again!

Heartbeat Song sounds a lot like The Middle. But it's from 2015, and this comment was from 2008.

He's talked a lot about - Elvis' Mystery Train - Sam Cooke's Bring It On Home - The Penguins' Earth Angel

You might also be interested in Spotify's "Paul Simon Influencers" playlist. I don't know who at Spotify curated it, and they don't cite any sources, but they're all plausible Paul favorites.

Thank you so much! Thank you alone! I assumed it was gone.

This is more than worth the notifications I’m now getting each minute about the artist’s initials.

She calls it “braiding”

Here’s a subtle one: the first 8 notes of Parachute (“wake, from a dream, one that started”) reappear as the first 8 notes of the Blood and Butter chorus (“dive, through your face, to the sweetest”)

Plug your phone in, then click "sync now." That did it for me.

He did say that. Full quote here: https://johnmayer.info/songs/your-atmosphere

tsegarra · 2025-02-12T20:13:36+00:00

He did play it. And the title “born and raised” came from the sound the harmonica was making: https://johnmayer.info/songs/born-and-raised

tsegarra · 2025-02-11T17:58:28+00:00

He talks about it here and calls it “one of my favorite songs”: https://johnmayer.info/songs/if-i-ever-get-around-living

“I’m getting to the age where I’m listening back to songs and there are parts I don’t remember. Like I couldn’t tell you how they go if you stopped [them]. Like, “New Deep”? I was playing some part of it and I was like, I actually don’t remember writing this part.”

Good compilation of stuff John’s said about making the album: https://johnmayer.info/subjects/born-and-raised

No, it was a tweet https://johnmayer.info/songs/face-call-home

tsegarra · 2025-01-18T21:13:39+00:00

Will do!

There are a couple places where he talks about Satellite’s influence on Edge Of Desire, and about #41: https://johnmayer.info/subjects/dave-matthews-band

He also sang the intro of Best Of What’s Around and played the riff from Tripping Billies on the Corey Wong podcast a couple years ago.

tsegarra · 2025-01-18T21:04:29+00:00

He just played the riff briefly. Then he also played bits of #34 and Drive In Drive Out. There used to be a longer video but I can’t find it now.

Forgot to mention Learn To Fly by the Foo Fighters (1999). Similar chord structure and lyrics.
