he makes an egregious mistake in the lyrics and not one person has ever noticed it

AND IF YOU SAID THIS LIFE AINT GOOD ENOUGH

I WOULD BUMP YOUR THREAD TO LIFT YOU UP

He was funny in that sinbad episode where they are In a mental institution.

How very Rob Thomas of him.

I'm just now realizing Rob Thomas and John Mayer are different people and I lived through the height of popularity of both. Is this a Mandela?

I can't think of a single John Mayer song. I can't recall what his voice sounds like. I only know about the guy 'cause he's famous for dating lots of celebrity women. But Rob Thomas? He has an iconic voice. Immediately recognizable.

>>212688450
go on

>>212692155
alright that song is a banger idc

Santana was a hack who got other artists to sing songs for him while all he does is a crazy guitar solo

>It was the final number-one hit of the 1990s and the first number-one hit of the 2000s
one of the most based albums

>>212692521
so say you were walking and suddenly though about this fantastic person you're having a fling with, so you start walking in a more jaunty self satisfied way. you would say the person was the groove in your step. But because it's 'step' doesn't rhyme with 'smooth' a whole verse later, he just says 'you're the step in my groove', which is like nonsense

>>212693232
Wow, spanning two millenniums!

>>212693527
shut up fag

>>212693527
No, autist/ESL retard
To "groove" can also mean to "dance"
and dances are typically made up of dance steps
the lyric makes perfect sense, but only if you don't have a mental disability and/or you actually speak english natively

>>212693527
ok

>>212693648
even if your premise is right that it's a dance step within a dance (a 'groove') then that's not carrying a suitable meaning either. 'You're one step in my entire dance'? You have one small piece of my attention?

>>212693719
nigga he says “the step” not “a step”
i.e. you are the entire act of stepping, in my groove.

>>212693719
No, autist/ESL retard.
The lyric is saying the latina love interest imbues our white male singer with rhythm, figuratively, but also literally as latinas do also like to dance and it is a latin-infused pop rock song.
As if to say:
>you put some pep in my step, senorita
He is not speaking of a single literal step he has taken, nor a single move of a figurative or literal dance (salsa, merengue, etc.), but rather an overall improvement of his life/mood due to being involved with this latina.
Again, this is something you would understand instinctively if were a native English speaker.

I just got into britpop because of the prank show triggerhappytv. Try this is hardcore by pulp. It is a banger.

>>212693841
you're probably right but about the intention but that means its like 'the note in my melody'. you can't quite say it to mean all the notes

>>212693875
....but you just undid your own explanation. I was on board but now you're gone and said
>you put some pep in my step, senorita
As if the line is 'groove in my step'. Which I said it should be but it's actually
>'the step in my groove'
So even you now have fallen into knowing it should be 'in my step' lol

>>212693930
Except "step" in this instance could also refer to a full routine or series of choreographed moves that make up "one" dance move
For example, doing "the twist" is not a single movement, but multiple, and yet it would be referred to as a single dance "move"

>>212694036
ok, that does work, i'm sold. i am letting rob go free

>>212693964
Except you don't fucking speak English and you've fallen into the common trap of not knowing inartistically that most English words can have half a dozen completely different meanings and the only way to understand is context clues and having grown up speaking the language your entire life.
Otherwise you literally always have this problem.
It's the same thing when I see turbo ESLs say:
>it's
In response to a question.
They of course mean the affirmative:
>It is
And since they have basic, perhaps, textbook summarized understanding of contractions and that they can just always be used whenever the two parent words are present. But they can't, because that's not how people speak English.

>>212693527
tism

Celso Pina, control.machete, molotov, brujeria. All Spanish bands that would be better than that one song. I liked his other solo song as well.

>>212694122
ah, haha good stuff my man........You wrote 'in my step'.

>>212694243
You're so ESL you don't know that "pep in my step" is a common phrase.
And that "step" can be a verb and a noun.
And that "groove" can also be a verb and noun.
Does your native language even an equivalent to verbs and nouns? It must, right?

>>212694315
>you don't know that "pep in my step" is a common phrase.
but that's the whole basis of my argument... I think you have actually forgotten what side you're arguing lol

>>212694362
Your "argument" is that you believe the word "step" was misused. You are an ESL.
I am not and ESL, and I am telling the word was not misused. You are mentally and possibly even physically incapable of properly understanding this, similar to the way Japanese people past a certain become physically incapable of making certain mouth movements to produce certain sounds, and require years of training to be able to say, for example, the word "reptile" in a proper way.
I except you have a similar defect in your brain as you are still arguing this point. Again, you might also have a language-based physical defect as well. People are afraid to study this kind of thing properly.

>>212692697
His jazz-rock shit post Santana III was pretty cool for a few albums. Caravanserai was nice.

First music video I ever sawed.

>>212694628
Caravansarai is some of the worst faux jazz fusion/jazz-rock of that era.

>>212694547
>I am not and ESL

are you retarded or just that underage?
John Mayer's Your Body Is A Wonderland was god damn everywhere for years when it came out. No Such Thing was also pretty massive, he has multiple Grammy awards, why even say shit if you don't know what you're talking about?

Radioanon here
It was an absurdly huge song, I unironically think that this song could've lingered on more and the only thing that really toppled it was 9/11 of all things because every station would put it on rotation and you would hear it in public spaces all the time
If he just had another megahit he could've been the male pop icon of the era then, his only competition would've been someone like Iglesias and Usher and there was a gap until Timberlake came along

>>212693527
Not only does it makes sense in this way >>212693648
it's also a very common English language idiomatic trope to mix words around in a well known phrase for the sake of poetry.

>>212695330
I stand by what I said: John Mayer was never popular.

>>212693964
Nta but I don't think that anon was the same anon as the original anon, and you are correct about your statement here with his argument contradicting the original point despite you being wrong overall about the meaning of the lyric. Hope that helps.

What other Matchbox Twenty song is even tangentially related to PUA shit lol?

>>212694547
At first I thought lyricanon was a retarded pedant, but thanks to you I now agree with him.

>>212698509
nta but lyricanon is autistic and retarded, taking 'groove' to mean a singular literal step.
groove in the song is meant as the essence of movement, and the step is a singular part of the entirety.
i hear it as another way of saying "you complete me" but having it rhyme with smooth.

>>212693527

You know, sometimes someone will make a post that, if it were bait, I'd award it the highest medal. I have really no words to say in regards to this post, and that's rare.

Groove meaning the groove of a vinyl record or "LP" that the stylus uses to play the music. Fucking zoomers.

>>212698409
He does look like he wear a lot of trinkets to start conversation with girls.

>>212699278
This guy is reaching.

>>212699345
A vinyl record is covered in grooves. The song you're talking about was released on LPs only at the time. You are wasting my fingers time when they could be stroking anon jr. so good day.

Of course.

I watched some of sinbad's stand up the other day and laughed my ass off. He's really funny.

>>212703471
The sketch was painfully unfunny, but it wasn't really making fun of anyone. In fact it was actively countering the trope that "white people can't dance".

>>212692482
Waiting on the World to Change is a John Mayer song. I didn't know that until relatively recently and I actually listen to John Mayer.

Matchbox Twenty is a good band
