Single of The Day: John Mayer – Who Says 

Yang bener aja, lagunya enak sekali! Dengan modal gitar dan suara merdu, John Mayer menjadikan ‘Who Says’ sebagai satu lagu terbaik tahun ini. Lagunya premir di situs resminya 25 September lalu, tapi official release di 13 Oktober-nya. Lagunya sendiri bercerita mengenai Mayer yang bisa segalanya. Dan ini juga sebenarnya pembuktian ke kita bahwa nothing is impossible.

Mengenai lirik ‘who says I can’t get stoned?’, Mayer menyatakan bahwa itu adalah bukan ganja. Ini wawancaranya bareng Rolling Stones, “When I sing it, I do not think about marijuana — I think about walking around your house naked with a guitar. It’s about being in control of the pleasure in your life.”

Nah, who says John Mayer ga bisa menangin Grammy tahun depan dengan Who Says?

Lyrics:
Who says I can’t get stoned?
Turn off the lights and the telephone
Me and my house alone
Who says I can’t get stoned?

Who says I can’t be free?
From all of the things that I used to be
Re-write my history
Who says I can’t be free?

It’s been a long night in New York City
It’s been a long night in Baton Rouge
I don’t remember you looking any better
But then again I don’t remember you

Who says I can’t get stoned?
Call up a girl that I used to know
Fake love for an hour or so
Who says I can’t get stoned?

Who says I can’t take time?
Meet all the girls on the county line
Then wait on fate to send a sign
Who says I can’t take time?

It’s been a long night in New York City
It’s been a long night in Austin too
I don’t remember you looking any better
But then again I don’t remember you

Who says I can’t get stoned?
Plan a trip to Japan alone
Doesn’t matter if I even go
Who says I can’t get stoned?

It’s been a long night in New York City
It’s been a long time since 20 too
I don’t remember you looking any better
But then again I don’t remember you
