| Wow, this song is such a highlight in "Something To Be"...it has the instant power of making me smile. It might sound a little shallow but for me it's not at all. It reminds you to keep your eyes open, not to dwell into not-so-important stuff, and to hold on to the things that really matters. It gives me a summer, a holiday feeling, very much like "Sunday Morning" by Maroon 5. I love this kind of songs that make you want to jump out of bed, despite of all your duties. "We may never find our reason to shine, but here and now this is our time... And I may never find the meaning of life, but for this moment I am fine..." Those lyrics are beautiful, inspiring and touching at the same time for me. | |

| Great song, but John Mayer was a joke. No offense to him, he's a decent guitarist. He's a talented musician. But I don't think he's a good songwriter. Thankfully, he didn't co-write. This song is great however. John didn't do half bad. | |
