Miles from Coltrane

There's this great John Mayer song called Comfortable. It's only on his live release, so you probably don't even know it, but it's a great song. It's about moving on from one girl to the next. He is still stuck on his old girl, and reminiscing on some of her finer points. There is this great line about the ex: "you could distinguish Miles from Coltrane." What an awesome line - that's my kind of girl. And honestly, it isn't that hard - Miles Davis plays the trumpet, Coltrane the sax. A little concentration should allow most people to make the distinction.

There's another great line in the song, too: "I love you, gray sweatpants, no makeup, so perfect." Word. But in the end, he can't get over the old girl. "I want you back" he sings. Then again, good things may be yet to come.
