John Mayer has come to be known as a funny social media personality on top of being a talented songwriter. In the latest episode of his Instagram talk show, Current Mood, these two sides of him converge as he pens a holiday tribute to the CVS bag. “I wrote a song about the trustiest of companions while staying at someone else’s house for the holidays,” Mayer captioned a clip from Monday's episode. “Please enjoy ‘CVS Bag,’ as performed last night on @currentmood. Happy Holidays!”
Mayer describes the song's premise during its spoken intro: “So when you go home for the holidays and you stay in your family’s house, you’re a guest. There’s not much you can do.” He then poignantly sings about the products stored in a pharmacy bag that are necessary to get you through your out-of-town trip, such as “a travel thing of q-tips and an Applebees card.” I guess Mayer didn't get the memo that we're only using reusable bags in 2019, but you can check out the song below and maybe you'll find it relatable.
If you're looking for more music to soundtrack your holiday season, we compiled a hip hop Christmas playlist on Spotify.
