Mayer, John - Bold As Love Lyrics
Anger he smiles towering in shiny metallic purple armor
Queen Jealousy, envy waits behind him
Her fiery green gown sneers at the grassy ground
Blue are the life-giving waters taken for granted
They quietly understand
But wonder why the fight is on
But they're all, they bold as love
Yeah, they're all, they bold as love
They're all, they bold as love
Just ask the axis
My red is so confident that he flashes
Trophies of war and ribbons of euphoria
Orange is young, full of daring
My yellow in this case is not so mellow
In fact I'm trying to say it's frightened like me
And all these emotions of mine keep holding me from
Giving my life to a rainbow like you
I'm bold, I'm bold as love
Yeah, I'm bold, I'm bold as love
I'm bold, I'm bold as love
Just ask the axis
Yeah, he knows, he knows everything
I'm bold, bold as love
...

Mayer, John Bold As Love Comments
Trying to learn this on the 6 string really gives you an idea of just how talented Hendrix was
John Mayer is such a conceited cunt. Nice cover guy. Can you write as good? Its actually painful to watch this piece of shit imagining he is great. Any well groomed 12 year old can replay a great piece. He takes this song and then fuxks it up with his poetry about why he is a GENIUS. The speechmaking in this song is absolute garbage.
No insult to this prick, but why cant we get the Jimi version on youtube?
솔직히 그래비티 보다 존메이어 노래중에 커버곡이긴한데 이노래 자주들으러옴 갓 대두 메이어 횽님!!!
그리고 원작자 갓 지미핸드릭스횽님~~~ 코드진행이랑 꾸밈음 기타 애드리브라인 살리는 갓메이어 횽님 ~
그리고 신사적인 핏과 룩
그리고 펜더에 또롱또롱한 저 그루브 소리
마지막으로 블루스 보이~
기타 그립감 보소 악력으로는
사과 반으로 쪼갤수잇을듯
게리무어 형님이랑 srv 형님이랑 손가락 뼈밀도 측정 했었어야 했는데
미국 과학자들은 유명인사 뮤지션들 DNA 세포핵 보관 잘하고이씀???
시바 너무나도 박수칠때 떠나가버린
우리 블루스 기타형님들 보고 시퍼서 bold as love 로 기분 달래러 왓네 시봥!!!
노래좋네 ㅎㅎ
Loving the guitar work, it's comparable to the original, the singing however, while it isn't bad I feel it lacks somehing. Couldn't say exactly was though.
8:26 poor guy got rejected trying to make a move on his girl in a JM concert, clearly not the wisest choice
Leo Song Good god I just noticed that, tragic😂
at 1:35, does anyone know how he does the little chromatic thing that goes Bb, B, Ab ?
Tri-pl-et, tri-pl-et, tri-pl-et. I think it sounds like one of those sixth intervals on the D and B strings. He is getting a lot of great muted, teeny weeny harmonics with his left hand across the other strings for a really great percussive rhythmic quality.
So you would fret that classic Stratty (it may be a 5-b3) interval and slide down chromatically with triplet strums on each pitch muting the other strings with either a bar or your thumb and fingers if you are going FULL Jimi.
I may be wrong
i just wish i wasn't 8 years old and were in America at the time... like i missed something so dope!! im so mad i was born in 2000 AND in europe :D lol
Fuckin' Ah!
My favorite Jimi Hendrix tune. Great great great guitar song! well done John
Not a mayer fan ...he did a great job and gotta give respect where its due. Well don sir
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I just wanna party one night in the vip section with this Legend.
Well maybe gimme two nights. Lol
great Steve Jordan
Jimi Hendrix does it better
He should stick to playing and spare us his philosophy of life. He sounded like a tool as soon as he stopped singing and started talking.
We need a edited version of the song that he doesn't talk about himself!
At least SRV was talking for all of us to be good and to love each, brothers and sisters etc.
there is on spotify
the bassist is the silent hero
Legend has it, that John Mayer once travelled back in time to the 60s,where he helped out for an injured band leader at a prom.He then performed this song, of which the band leader, named Riki Hendrix, was so impressed,that he called his cousin Jimi, who was looking for "a new sound" and let him listen to it on the phone.The rest is history...
(so sic/insane)
I bet Jimi would be proud that people who were not even born when he died still enjoy songs he wrote.
The bassist killed it!
1966 strat looking sharp
The bassist tho
God I with someone cut his mic off during that speech ahha
It’s crazy how this solo and srv solo sound similar
Jimi would be proud
What's fender he use ? Big headstock frome 70s?
間奏なんて言ってるの?誰か訳して〜
When you have a concert at 8 but have to attend a meeting at 9.
I think I came when the lights went dark lmao
*John Mayer Trio
mediocre guitarist and a bit of a dick to boot!
kills me that like a total of 3 people in that audience probably knew that this was a hendrix song
The irony is the teenage girls in the audience think this is his original song
How is that ironic...do you even know what irony means?
Watch a live performance of Stevie Ray Vaughn "Life Without You" and compare speeches, post speech solos.
Anger, he smiles,
Towering in shiny metallic purple armour
Queen Jealousy, envy waits behind him
Her fiery green gown sneers at the grassy ground
Blue are the life-giving waters taken for granted,
They quietly understand
Once happy turquoise armies lay opposite ready,
But wonder why the fight is on
But they're all bold as love, yeah, they're all bold as love
Yeah, they're all bold as love
Just ask the axis
My red is so confident that he flashes trophies of war
And ribbons of euphoria
Orange is young, full of daring,
But very unsteady for the first go round
My yellow in this case is not so mellow
In fact I'm trying to say it's frightened like me
And all these emotions of mine keep holding me from, eh
Giving my life to a rainbow like you
But, I'm bold as love, yeah, I'm bold as love
Yeah, yeah
Well I'm bold, bold as love (hear me talking, girl)
I'm bold as love
Just ask the axis (he knows everything)
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah!
BEAUTIFUL COVER
Why are they all wearing First Communion suits?
Mayer is extremely good at guitar. He is up there with the best.
He did a great job with the song
I wanna know what he said, so please write down.
Wow. Jimi would be proud 😉
I hope the audience know this is Jimi's song
response:?
I'm not sure i can do this?
2:11 and 2:19 pino is absolutely killing it
This was a mediocre song by Jimi only made pretty good by him flanging the coda at the end in studio. Hard to believe with today's pedals you leave the best part out...
To all the people complaining how Bold As Love is unoriginal, I get that he's playing a Hendrix song, yeah. But c'mon there's no denying the fact that he's a pretty good guitarist.
If you're gonna complain about him, why not complain about SRV? He covered Little Wing and Voodoo Child.
Sincerely, A Jimi Hendrix fan with a properly functioning brain.
I dont even know what you are saying? How is bold as love unoriginal its timeless and not covered often especially this well.
bnasty 5 unoriginal as in its not mayer’s song
I probably should’ve been more clear on that
Preach man
@Jammy I looked through almost all of these comments, and nobody is complaining about the fact that this is a cover... And "pretty good" is the understatement of the century, he's phenomenal.
Pino a god damn savage on that bass as well...
John's tone in this is incredible 😍
the beginning is soooo catchy omg i csnt stop replaying
Modern day SRV 🤟
One one of the best but there will never be another SRV
NICE SONG I WANT TO IJACULATE TO JOHN MAYER JOESEF
Fucking fantastic performance, beautiful, I enjoyed this to the fullest, this is a solid ten effort and performance wise , I give it 7.5 compared to the truly original instrumental version which blows all boundaries music and feeling wise, listen to it, it will change your life.
...and they walked off the stage like they know they just killed it all.....in the right.
He will go down in history
If you have spotify, listen to the original from hendrix and experience eargasm
Really amazing play guitar!
3:19 who thinks what he said made no sense?
I think Jimmy would have been extremely proud to have this amazing musician take on his song with the vocals he has and guitar skill I mean shit...all I’m saying I think he did this song more than justice and some
BUENOS AIRES? 4:25
What guitar is that?
Sounds like Stevie ray Vaughan
holy fucking shit, this is acc the best thing ive ever heard
please hire me because I look like you.
stfu and play for gods sake
Simply, the best guitarist of our generation with respect to the elders....
Cameron Collins mhhhh idk....
andrevilarc give names then
You came out in sympathy with men, therefore you got residences, fellow, and cars. Your voice will releases people from a burden.
Nothing like turning a Hendrix classic into a pile of self indulgent modern day shit.
Goddamn JM straight channeling Jimi here
And THIS is why so many guitar players at all levels own some type of Stratocaster. That tone. That beautiful, amazing, throaty, bluesy, woody, sweet ass bell-like tone. Only a Strat.
Love how u said that
@ivy anderson THROATY lol. Never heard that word and especially not to describe a guitar tone 😂
@Hi I'm Steve all different words are used to describe tone 😂 John himself describes it as "too purple". Throaty, nasaly, gristley, chewy, creamy, just to name a few 😂
one of the best drummers and bassists alive......they join mayer...
Can someone tell me why he hits that A chord twice before he actually start the song?
Rock on! 💜✌️🎼💚
I bet most of the teenage girl fanbase think this is a John Mayer song and not jimis song
Yep and that’s the sad part about popular musicians covers especially mayor I’ve seen so many people say bold as love, wait until tomorrow, everyday I Hate the blues and voodoo child are his when their Hendrix’s and bb king’s. It’s a shame
2019😎
Only flaw in this is the very beginning of that speech made no sense at all lol. Love you John lol
Right on John !!! Righteous tribute to the ONE master - JIMI !!! (F***'em armchair critics !)
This bass player is in every band ever
please tell me that outro is actually a song
It's everyday I have the blues-but shorter. He does it at the end of the trio sets normally
whats that ride steve jordan uses that crashes so good ?
It's a Paiste Traditional Light Ride 22"
Need more love to the eart
Fucking inspiring.
Came for Pino Palladino and Steve Jordan, stayed because John is actually a great musician when he’s not singing cheesy ballads.
Love this a lot, though I'm wondering why he didn't use his Monterey Pop strat here.
Prob tuned differently.
Is he not the absolute best guitarist of this generation? I mean it's not even close
is this his song?? oh my gosh he does such a great job live.
Charity Ann no it’s a Jimi Hendrix cover. Pretty good cover though.
lol hendrix
The litmus test of any guitarist's mettle.
John Mayer is just fucking incredible .......... If this is paying a brilliant tribute to Jimi I don’t know what is...
fuck i love the bit at the end
COMPLETE throwback to STEVIE RAY - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bw3f_5tocgg WP WP!! Not near as epic as SRV but valiant effort!! 3 mins in btw on SRV vid :D Whole thing is worth watching tho
すてき(⋈◍>◡<◍)。✧♡
演奏も要所のアレンジもギタープレイも、ファッションも、リズムの二人の渋さも、
曲のしめは原曲通りに行かずブルースブギ!熱いライブのアンコールて感じだったのかな
OMFG - What is trying do, kill Hendrix's soul from beyond. GTFO!
Jacksen Toomer Dude, I am the definition of good music but somethings you just can’t improve on John Mayer better stick to pussy grabbing instead of imitating Hendrix.
crewlj I prefer jimis version too but there’s no problem with john paying tribute to him.
Lightspeed Must be a chick
crewlj No...very funny tho
how is he immitating jimi
the instrumental part of this was way too EPIC!
A great song without a shadow of a doubt but my only issue with this is the little chat which I felt it was quite rude to Jimi. It would of made sense after the song but my god this man can play and he is my idol
That's how you play it
It feels like a watered down Stevie Ray Vaughan version of an amazing Hendrix song. I don't whether to like it or be pissed. Yeah he can play but I love this song so much it's not doing it for me.
i like it better cause quality and vocal immaculacy and guitar technicality
6:08 Pino.
If only anyone ever could make a bass tab for this. This is just ridiculous... and so smoot!!!. Oh Pino...
