For his past summer tour, John Mayer has taken Duffy's song and reworked it into a more traditional electric twelve bar blues. Although John Mayer is a pop star, he has said, before playing "Mercy" at his concert in Columbia, Maryland on 7/13/08, that he tries, "To bring blues and pop music together as much as possible...I went to the top 100 or whatever and I looked at what songs of the day, sort of, still echo that sentiment of R&B and blues, and I've found this song and it sits pretty nice."
