As a part of the Michael Jackson memorial, John Mayer delivered an acoustic performance of "Human Nature," but chose not to sing. He explained to Larry King on his talk show how he came to be a part of the service. Mayer says that the family approached him to ask if he would perform.
The singer says it "took me about 48 hours to sort of strike the balance in how I was going to approach being--you know, being invited to this unbelievable event without actually having the proximity to Michael Jackson, personally. I'd never met him."
It was John's choice not to sing the song, explaining, "The decision to not sing is just out of knowing what's best for me. I think it's quite a mine field to go into trying to in any way replicate vocally what Michael Jackson has done."
Usually, this one bugs the heck out of me, but this all seems surprisingly appropriate.
