I love this man. End of story.

John Mayer sucks. He’s a wannabe bluesman with no talent to speak of.

Eh. He’s all right. Bet blondie couldn’t keep up with the conversation though.

whoever wrote that John MAyer is a wannabe bluesman and has no talent has to definately be a talentless idiot as if they were to know anything about john mayer, he is a true musical artist who has more than just talent he sings from his soul…which is more than a lot of artist these days can say for themsleves

He broke his own tenet. He got the guy at the gym… and forgot about Jessica.

Can you imagine Jessica Simpson trying to have phone sex?

“Okay, so, take off my what? Hold on, let me finish this can of tuna…okay, so, I’m taking off my…oh my gawd, John, did you see me in US Weekly, they made me look like a had a wart on my thigh! Oh my gawd, I knew there was a bump there, but…what’s a wart look like anyway? I bet Daddy knows, hold on…”

Ummmmmmm, why do we care about anything John has to say? I get it already…you’re smart, you can play the guitar, you get to tap some nice ass once in awhile.
we don’t need you to talk to us about girlfriends or world affairs or prett much anything.
thank you for listening.

That is totally weird combinations, because no offense to John Mayer but he has a wierd face. Jessica Simpson is so better looking. I hate her though she is slow and way to sluty.

I care about John Mayer’s sex life about as much as I care about Nick Lachey’s…uhm, sex life. Yeah. Isn’t it pretty much the same difference? Two no talent ass clowns screwing the same blonde headed no talent ass clown?

John Mayer?!! whats it 2002 or something?? who cares…

How can you inflict this crap on us?

Somewhere Ralph Gleason weeps.

Mayer is a beautiful man.
lovelovelove.

Hey John – Dave Matthews Called, he wants his songs back.

How did that dork get to pork Jessica Simpson? Lachay may make sucky music but at least he does not look like a dork

john mayer’s a spoiled college kid who took his guitar teacher’s cheesy strat blues and made a pop career out of it.

oh, and this story is really really LAME. god, you’re turning into a musical US Weekly, rollingstone. pathetic

Go back and count the Grammy’s…bitches! Have you shared the stage with Clapton? Yeah didn’t think so…haters.

He says everyone in the music biz is a pussy, he must be talking about himself. He’s gone from second rate Dave Matthews (JM’s audience makes DMB’s look really bohemian, thats sooo sad) to fifth rate Eric Clapton in 5 years. But then again, can you really blame a man for stickin and stirrin that one lip synching girls “talented” sister. Like Lobsters says, how can you inflict this crap on us. Is this how you’re EIEIO’s get their xmas bonuses

Winning Grammys and sharing a stage with Eric Clapton does not automatically make him credible. Just like him boinking Jessica Simpson does not automatically mean he likes girls.

Clapton is God. Mayer is Judas

so its my guess that the jm bashers have absolutly no talent with guitar… clapton and hendrix please come and rip jm but anyone else’s opinion is a waste of time.
continuum sept. 12

the man is a legend.

JOHN MAYER IS A GOD!!!!

He is an incredible musician whose talent is magnified by his simplistic sensitivity and intellect which gave me the perception his core was not as tainted as other artists seem. Then you hear the rumors buzzing around. You can’t believe everything you read but the mere fact the possibility exists that he could be pursuing someone (as hot as she may be) who couldn’t possibly hold an intelligent conversation has permanently changed my perception of him. Now it’s strictly about the lyrics, the music and no longer about the artist I thought he was. Either he was in it for the press (meaning he didn’t believe enough in his own music that he needed the aid of the media) or just for the sex. He’s still talented, just not as inspiring.

Mayer McCheese plays a good ax, but his voice gets on my nerves. He looks like he needs more sleep.

Yet another riveting article by Rolling Stone.

John Mayer is blues the way Kraft Dinner is Italian cuisine.

dear middle america:

i blame YOU for making this man a star.

Optimuscrime speaks the truth.
John Mayer is to “guitar-god-rock-cred” as George Bush is to “The greatest Pressident of our time”.
Hey Rolling Stone…I can’t wait for the “song writing tips from Fergie” article!! You guys….Rock?

Hey Rolling Stone – Remeber when people used to subscribe?

Why does everyone hate on John Mayer so much? Have ANY of you haters listened to anything of his other than the radio? I personally am not a huge Mayer fan, but I give him credit where he deserves. He is TALENTED and a great songwriter. All you indie wannabe super-hipsters need to pull that stick out of your ass and realize good music exists, EVEN if they (God forbid!!) get popular! If he were a.) from the 60’s or b.) unknown to the mainstream world, you would all love him. Get a life jackasses

First off, you’ld have to be a man

I also love how everyone who attacks Rolling Stone are the ones always commenting on here…get a life and stop reading if you don’t like it

Some of you have no idea. You say this guy is a talentless punk. Thats laughable. John Mayer is one of the only things to be excited about in the music industry these days. His chops are unrivaled, and songs intelligently crafted. We should thank him for keeping the fire alive for songwriters. Go listen to Gwar you maggots.

The Grammy’s speak for themselves. 2 in as many albums. How many does DMB have? That’s right, ONE. Nuff said

ok, Jake? grammy’s are worthless. they are a joke. no one takes them seriously.
also, Lamblues? Mayer is not exciting. how about Wolfmother, Mars Volta, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Pearl Jam, Comets on Fire, Radiohead, Bob Dylan, so on and so forth? That’s exciting music. That’s talented and relevant music, something John Mayer would know nothing about.

john mayer sucks and he’s for soccer moms and friendless teeangers.

i think jess wasn’t deep enough for him.

Chuck, Just because you give him credit doesn’t mean the rest of the world has to. Everyone is entitled to like or dislike what they want. I don’t fault anyone for liking what they like. Artists? I make fun of them all day. They’re the ones making the shitty music, so they deserve all the bashing. I can’t stand his plain vanilla generic music. So…I snark. Pretty simple.

As Someone already pointed out IF YOU HATE ROLLING STONE MAGAZINE, WHY ARE YOU HERE!!!

I’d also like to add John Mayer Rocks!

Buddy Guy and Clapton have utmost respect for this cat. That’s more than enough credibility. Any bashers here need to see Mayer live, he’s simply amazing. His radio hits don’t hold a candle to the true talent he posesses.

Yo Dawgs,

I once had the pleasure of serving John Mayer in a chi-chi restaurant in the Big Apple one summer.

He was telling the guy he was with some dumb story about how once he had this girlfriend who liked mint ice cream, and he likes chocolate chips, so they used to eat mint chocolate chip ice cream together.

He was reminiscing about the infinite bliss of this glorious romance mini-chunk, when I realized that my perceptions had indeed always been spot-on:

THAT JOHN MAYER IS THE MOST ABOVE-THE-BELT POP STAR EVER.

If he had any real sexuality in his songs, he wouldn’t have to make faux-masculine sex comments to RS magazine.

But hey. It’s fun to read.

GET YOUR PORK ON, DORK-ONS!!

Dearest Chuck, Lamblues and other “Grammy’s = credibility”.
That has got be the lamest argument ever! I think that even John himself would tell you that the Grammy’s are a corporate joke.
Milli Vanilli anybody? Musical taste is completely subjective, and it’s not a rith or wrong issue. you can have Mayer…that’s cool. What I rally wanted to say is that the reason I’m here commenting on shit in the “People magazine for music” that Rolling Stone has become, is that it’s fucking hilarious to see folks like you get all bent out of shape over soem inoccuos “John Mayer girlfriend tips” article. Just saying that out loud should make you check yourself. By the way, that song “Daughters” rules……..umm, no!

Apologies for the atrocious spelling in the previous message.
I was a bit distracted, as Jessica was playing tonsil hockey with my meat thermometer.
sorry ’bout that…

So does this article prove John Mayer’s not a virgin. Cause if so I just lost a bunch of money.

Ugh, I am curious. Is this comment board for finding out what Jessica Simpson did wrong and not for bashing John Mayer and Rolling Stone, because they’re both pretty good. So stop using slang like porking and tapping, and using abbreviations instead of their names and get off the fucking computer and take some grammar and spelling lessons. God!

Balls

mike hunt? is that you brent? you and me always think the same

sorry Zack, but Mayer is better than Mars Volta.

This is not my opinion, it is a scientific fact.

Good try, though.

I unfortunately have seen John Mayer live. Yes, he is talented, but much like Kenny Wayne Sheppard before him, he is a complete and total rip-off of Stevie Ray Vaughn. He uses the same licks, the same guitar, same amps, etc… There is a fine difference between being a talented musician and being a talented songwriter. John Mayer is far from the latter. His DMB-tinged bublegum pop is dissappointing to people who actually invest themselves in the craft of music, and his “blues” stylings are even more dissappointing due to their complete lack of originality or creativity. Also, it should be noted that he likes them young as reported by some of my friends who managed to get to a hotel after-party with him.

P.S. We hate on Rolling Stone here because we remember what the magazine USED to be, and in the futility that they might listen and change.

For those looking for credit, this man has gotten props from, Buddy Guy, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Vaughn, B.B. King, Phil Lesh, Paul Simon, John Scolfield, Questlove, Jay Z and K. West. What more does a man have to do to say ok, talented artists approve of what I am doing. Heck he played SRV songs with Double Trouble backing him at Austin City Limits. Like his music or not to deny his ability to create and at the very least play music is saying that the above mentioned musicians know jack crap.

All you idiots that are dissin’ our boy need to go listen to Conor Oberst. He can’t rhyme or sing or play guitar. That’s talent to most of you guys anyway. JM is our generation’s Bob Dylan.

We all know he’s funny.

But the man is an incredible musician and much more worthy of the cover than Mr. Timberlake. How many chords does he know exactly? Yea…

Come on, people. Even if you don’t particularly like John’s music, it’s pretty damn obvious that the boy’s got some serious talent.

Just because he’s popular and was once played on MTV doesn’t mean that he sucks! Okay, so, “Your Body is a Wonderland” sucked hard, but that’s the exception. The rest of his stuff is great, and I applaud him for going the blues/rock route instead of just trying to be trendy.

Rock on, John!

people are dumb

you may not like the guys music but he’s far and away the most talented guitarist to come along in a long time.
even if hes written a few terrible songs, hes still way more talented than dave matthews.

yeah radiohead is real exciting, because i know i want to listen to stephen hawking talk for 2 minutes. dare i say the most overrated band of all time?

high and dry and creep were both awesome though

Im am not going to make ridulous statements like John Mayer “is a wanna be bluesman with no talent to speak of”…. Are you high ? He is a very talented guitarist but in my opinion his style never offers anything new.

If John Mayer is your generation’s Bob Dylan, than you’re a generation of philistines. Besides that, Mayer sounds like a fucking nutcase.

Who cares which tenant she broke. I don’t care for his music as an older man, and I’m sure I’d absolutely hate it as a young man. Hey John, if you’re reading: F*ck Off!

He’s got it all. Humour, style, looks, talent and more. Yes it sucks, but we don’t need to hate him because of it.

Can’t wait to read the entire article.

Jessica Simpson is just a skank. She broke Nick’s heart by cheating on him and later ends up dating this guy (John Mayer???)…come on–he’s a joke, compared to Nick Lachey!

john mayer a joke compared to nick lachey?

what you just said was the most insanely idiotic thing that i have ever heard. at no point in your rambling, incoherent response did you come close to anything that could considered a rational thought. everyone in this room is dumber having heard it. i award you no points, and may god have mercy on your soul.

I think the guy has talent. I won’t debate it. If you don’t like him, fine. He’ll go on as will you; just avoid his music. Simple, no?

As for Simpson, Mayer flies under the media radar and Simpson is a media whore. There was bullshit double talk from her camp about wanting to “keep things private” but the day after the story “leaked” that woman was out shopping for lingerie in NYC! That’s far from subtle.

If I can afford a personal shopper then you know she can. Keeping things private my ass. I’m glad Mayer dumped her ass because with every moment of their association he was becoming tabloid swill.

Being an L.A. gal, I know that there are plenty of women buzzing around shit that is the entertainment industry who have good looks, big tits, no substance but more of a clue.

Rock on John.

John Mayer is Dave Matthews light. He makes wimpy music for wimps.

ummmmm, isn’t john mayer dating parker posey?

just asking

heard the whole CD.
It’s basically the most complete and wonderful album I’ve heard in the past five years. Not one song is out of place, not one song is like another. And lyrically, just listen to “don’t stop this train” — guaranteed the voice of a generation.
P.S. I wonder what his phone plan is like?

Yeah, I’m not one for celebrity relationship gossip, however, I’ll read anything about Johnny M. What a great guitarist/songwriter. Even if you’re not a fan, you’d be silly to bash the man. He’s brill!

-Love T

why on earth are you people comparing him to dave matthews?!?!? their songs are totally different! oh, because they’re both guys who play the guitar, i guess they’re the same then. excuse me. WTF go listen to a dave mattews song, then listen to a john mayer song, and tell me how theyre the same.

hmmm….John Mayer, Jessica Simpson? Wow, I’d rather study for my world history test.

Nothing like a John Mayer article to bring out the idiots. And to whoever said Mayer is the next Bob Dylan, know that there is a tenth ring of Hell reserved for you and your ilk.

John Mayer is too talented and smart for Jessica. Nick was too down to earth and an all around easy going guy for Jessica. She’s HIGH maintenance and another pretty face. Jessica said she has multiple soul mates so therefore she will be dating the rest of her life. Sounds like a winner to me because NO ONE IS STUCK w/ HER.

JoJo,
I was thinking the same thing. No way Jess could keep up with John’s conversation. You can only say GOSH so many times.

John Mayer could possibly be the greatest musical talent of our generation. Anyone who’s left comments to the contrary here obviously knows little to nothing of his work – uh, kenny bum bum, for the record, he didn’t attend college, other than an unfinished stint at the Berklee College of Music. He dropped out to tenaciously pursue a career following his passion – music. He’s a prodigious, self-taught songwriter of immeasurable depth – an old soul who has quietly built a stellar, if somewhat under-the-radar career by remaining true to himself and refusing to succumb to the publicity machinery of the music industry. (Current tabloid fiasco erroneously linking him with Jessica Simpson notwithstanding).

Unfortunate ly, that career has been overshadowed by the steady diet of mediocre pop/rap crap that the youth of today are being fed by said industry in pursuit of the almighty $$. While Continuum undoubtedly will not receive the media attention that JT’s new CD will get, (or wrack up the numbers), this will still prove to be the CD that makes John a bona fide star, and one that you’ll still be listening to 10, 15, 20, even 30 years from now. As was mentioned somewhere above, yeah, he certainly may be a throwback to a different era – an era where raw, unadulterated TALENT was what separated the successful musicians from the wannabes – when the musicians weren’t manufactured, actually had their own thoughts, wrote their own lyrics, and recorded their own songs without the aid of studio wizardry.

I’m so tired of hearing and reading uninformed opinions about John and his music. Okay, so Your Body Is A Wonderland gets him a lot of flack, but if you get past the title, it’s not a creepy make out song – it’s a lyrically intelligent and well written original piece of music – and one that just happened to win him his first Grammy at the age of 26.

Simply put, John’s music has LEGS, and while he may not be everyone’s cup of tea, it’s just ignorant to spew negative opinions on subjects you know little to nothing about. Take the time to LISTEN. Because he’s slowly becoming legendary. One day his name will justly belong with the likes of the musicians he calls his role models – Clapton, SRV, Buddy Guy, B.B. King, Sting – and even with prolific songwriters such as Lennon/ McCartney, Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, James Taylor….you get the picture.

He’s a classic just waiting to happen.

I was a big John Mayer Fan, but i am really bugged that he dated or even considered Jessica Simpson…ewww, i mean she is hot, but the most self involved girl, who is as deep as a kiddy pool! maybe he is not as deep or melancholy as assumed! I totally judge him!

I have newfound respect for John Mayer. Not for his music, for pulling Jessica Simpson. Well done, now her body is a wonderland, for sure. WOW. John Mayer’s music is 100% pure garbage and I agree with the guy who said theirs a tenth ring of hell for whoever said Mayer was the next Dylan. Mayer could never ever make an album or 10 albums than even begin to compare to a single Dylan song, i.e. Like a Rolling Stone, or Ballad of a Thin Man. But he’s bangin’ Jessica Simpson and that’s more than I can say for myself so mad props to John Mayer.

How did a talented musician who appeared to have brains date Jessica Simpson? I know I am judging both of them but if he puts himself out as a purist he is not allowed to date someone with what appear to be less than minimal brains. Does he wish to prove the hypothesis about men? Perhaps since he chose to date Jessica Simpson he is unable to understand that question.

I DON’T THINK jOHN MAYER IS God’s GIFT TO MUSIC OR WOMEN, BUT THE KID HAS TALENT AND JUST B/C U DON’T LIKE HIS STYLE OF MUSIC DOESN’T MEAN U HAVE 2 HATE! …SHOULD HE APOLIGIZE FOR HAVING MONEY AND BEING RECOGNIZED?!… NO MATTER WAT ANY HATER SAY’S I HAVE TO GIVE HIM PROPS FOR STAYING TRUE 2HIMSELF AND DOING THE TYPE OF MUSIC THAT HE LOVES … HE MAY NOT B THE “COOL INDIE” TYPE BUT HE’S NO SELL-OUT!

John Mayer is the first artist in a long time who is actually worth listening to. He has something to say. It may not be what some people want to hear but when he says it he says it well and he plays it well. He is turning out to be one of the greatest guitarists of our generation. He doesn’t go with the current “pop formula” he draws inspiration from the roots of rock & roll and he does it his way. He’s not looking to make the top ten or to be on the cover of every magazine. He doesn’t want to be famouse…he wants to play music and if you want to listen…great, if not than shut up and listen to the latest from Kevin Federline.

okay, “your body is a wonderland” is bubble-gum pop. as for “daughters”, the man didn’t even want the song released…but the RECORD COMPANY felt the need to release it anyway. he wanted “come back to bed” which is a great song and should have been released. stop hating on this guy bc of the songs the RECORD COMPANY decides to release. get a life and stop putting people down. but hey, if talking shit about someone you don’t even know on a personal level makes your happy…go for it.

That’s enough, John Mayer.

I’m sorry, but John Mayer is the most gifted talented artist of our generation. If that’s correct, then kiil me now, because I don’ want to live. Sure, he’s got chops, and can write a neat tune. But what DOES he say? Anyone tell me what “Your Body is a Wonderland” is really about? What the hell else could that song title be then a gushy make-out song? And no, this is not from a person who has never heard this guy. Back when that song was saturating airwaves, I was clawing out my eardrums at his whispery breath. But why doesn’t he just start to kick some ass?
And for the love of God, Fed Up, Mayer is not Clapton or Buddy Guy. And you desecrate SRV by even mentioning them in the same sentence.

Sorry, that first sentence should end in a question mark, because I’m incredulously asking how someone could say that.

enough with “your body is a wonderland”. john himself doesnt like that song anymore. in fact, its his worst song, but because most of the american population have poor music taste, they play that song like crazy. go listen to “split screen sadness” or “wheel”. those are some good lyrics, so stop with YBIAW. its 1 song out of many.

Her body may be a wonderland, but her brain, apparently, is a wasteland. Wisen up, John. You need a woman, whom when you awake at 2:30 a.m. to write down the lyrics you just dreamed, she’ll be excited too. Not worried about losing her beauty sleep. The gal for you will inspire you to get up and hum a few bars, and will encourage you to go back to sleep so you’ll dream the rest of the melody :>) Love, from a great fan, who want’s for you the best life has to offer. One of those bests, is that special girl, one with a brain and a heart, and oh yeah, a fine body too. Wait for her and your world really will be a wonderland.
- Jane

Fools I thinks you all care a little too much, so he got some blonde, bimbo action. So what, get over it.

To hell with john mayer & jessica simpson their music sucks, and 98% of all music is waaaaaaay too mainstream. what the world needs is Guns n’ roses to kick the music industry in the ass once again. also john mayer isn’t worthy of holding bob dylan’s guitar.

For those of you who keep on using grammy wins as justification for Mayer being talented, dont forget Eminem has grammy’s too. And one more thing…Jethro Tull beat out Metallica for best Hard Rock/ metal grammy in 1988…yeah Guns N Roses “Appetite For Destruction” didnt even get nominated..but JETHRO TULL DID?!?! long story short Grammy’s=meaningless

John, so very witty. Keep the relationships to college girls and groupies, pop tarts need not apply.

For the record, I believe Eminem’s Grammy wins were completely worthy.

Her big mouth got her dumped.

I don’t want to know about his sex life. Especially I knew him in Atlanta before he became famous and he was such a sweety. Even if he is not amazing

Astrologically, JM needs a beautiful, spiritual (not religious), and especially articulate woman who will worship him. Can’t a guy even consider getting laid without everyone pointing their fingers at him?? p.s. I think he’s amazing!! He’s got the biggest, most powerful aura I’ve ever seen! Dark spirit come back to earth to help us evolve. Everyone, read Linda Goodman!!

I had no idea so many people had so much time to waste posting angry messages! What are you doing here? Honestly!?

Leave John Mayer alone…sure he’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but who is?!! I love him!!

Eff it John.. and while you at eff ALL the girls you want in the front row… – you only go around once… enjoy. Jennifer Love Hewitt, Heidi Klum and Jessica Simpson – hat off to you bro. put on the bear suit and keep the streak alive!!!

if JM hadn’t written some of his cheesier big hits you wouldn’t hear most of the negative comments in this column.

The fact is, Mayer is a true talent on guitar. My mind was completely changed after being dragged to one of his concerts by my ex – the guy is one of the most passionate, emotional, and technically amazing players of the last 15 years.

I’m happy for John…he seems to be banging all sorts of hot clam.

Everyone remember to buy my new album. Especially if you like U2 and Bruce Stringbean.

HaHa. You guys are weird.

boooooooooooooring.

I gotta laugh at that guy Fed Ups passionate post. Mayer goes back to a time when artists wrote their own music and werent manufactured- like when? In the last century there was always so-called artists who werent writing their own material and were selling a product. Even when The Beatles were around there was still manufactured crap and before them it was almost always the case that the performer wasnt the songwriter.

Mayer is going to be up there with the likes of Dylan and Lennon one day? How the hell would you know? He could just as easily, no matter how talented he could be, disappear after a string of hits like so many great artists have. So far his music has been sappy mellow college rock or at least his hits have been. He definately has a niche carved out since hes successful but he hasnt shown any signs of possibly having the relevance, influence or impact of the artists you compared him to. Simply put, whether you like his music or not, he still hasnt made a bonafide classic or essential recording that makes the public and the press universally agree that this is an album that had to be made. Until he does that at least once I really dont see how you can make such comparisons.

WHAT AN ASS

i hate him

Question for people who question Mayer’s talent and ability. Have you heard his album with the John Mayer Trio, TRY!, or seen his club shows when he was out with them fall 05. If you haven’t then you are really missing out. The concerts were some of the best I’ve ever seen. TRY! is one of the better comericial releases of the past couple of years. The boy has mad talent.

And I haven’t been able to stop laughing.
hahahahahahahahaha.
Priceless.
Tea Bag Anyone?

John Mayer

John Mayer is not John Lennon, Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton

John Mayer is Rod Stewart

mayer is fucking ghey.

GHEY

ahh…its fun to watch people say idiotic things when a jealous streak hits them…the man has talent…even if you don’t like his style of music you have to be able to appreciate that fact…i’m not a huge fan of the rolling stones but i do appreciate their talent and contribution to music

Hey, fan of Mayer. I caught about 20 minutes of one of his sets with his “trio”. I’ve never seen an audience more bored in my life.

Uhh… Yeah.

Shut your mouth and play your guitar you have mad talent, but so does Terrell Owens get the picture?
If you want to go to a show I strongly suggest
Zappa plays Zappa !!!!

daughters is great, split screen silence is good, the buck stops there. his lyrics are decent, but his projection sucks, and his guitar work is so easy an ametuer could memorize it in one sitting. if you want to hear an artist with the same formula but actually captures you with soul, listen to jack johnson, his soundtrack to curious george is better than any full album by mayer, and he was around making it happen way before mayer.

Oh, and him dating someone like jessica simpson is like taking a shit on whatever meaning I thought Daughters had.

It’s funny how some people in life have nothing better to do but cratique someone elses lifestyle. Have you ever thought about the amount of money Mayer has contributed to organizations? What the hell have you done bitches? Let alone made it in life!

Mayer isn’t dating Parker Posey. That would be Ryan Adams.

Thanks, ERik, for bringing further attention to my post, at the same time offering an example of a closed-minded and ignorant reply. So you don’t like Mayer? That’s cool. You’re certainly entitled to your opinion, but belittling others doesn’t make yours right (or funny, for that matter).

And evan, fair enough. I certainly do not have a crystal ball to see what the future holds for Mr. M’s career, I’m only offering my opinion as someone with a fairly extensive musical background, whose tastes are wide ranging and not confined solely to “mellow college rock”. Only time will decide Continuum’s place in popular music history, and let’s face it, when it comes to music, beauty will always be in the ear of the beholder. That said, I stand by MY opinion that Continuum may just prove to be that “essential recording” that moves Mayer into the singer/songwriter stratosphere. If nothing else, it’ll be interesting to see what happens.

Hey Brian, I may not have made it in life but at least I can spell.

Dude i love john mayer trio so i gues that means i like some of his solo shit too but i must say you are a sucky intreview and nobody gives a flat fuck about how you fucking illustrate eevery goddamn mother fucking thing you cheap ass bitch

love, ROn

It’s official.
Western civilization has just jumped the shark.
I want off this goddamned planet!
I’m gonna go suck on the business end of a sawed off…Cobain style.
OUT!

I almost forgot.
Hey Fed Up…you need to go take a nap on some train tracks.
Your mother should have told your dad “No means No!”
Jeebus, you are a whiny bag of busllshit.

…who in the hell is john mayer?…

i don’t overly care much for John Mayer. I think he’s a bit of a dirtbag,(only because his code of ethics seems trashy) but the man does have talent.
I mean, look at Tommy Lee. He;s the biggest douche bag in the industy, but he has talent.

What amazes me is the fact that everyone has the balls to sit there and critique his music. Hmmm, I wonder, can you compose your own music with his level of originality? Can you write your own lyrics with the same emotion and creativity that he does? Think so? Then answer this: Do you have a multi-million dollar music deal to back you up? I didn’t think so. Before you go airing your opinion thinking you know everything there is to know about the music business and that your word is credible, I hope you realize as you sit there, still living with your parents, your word means nothing. Sure everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion, but until you can depict the talent in artists of various music genres from Eminem to John Mayer to Guns N Roses then your opinion is crap. This means you are extremely close-minded and you had your mind made up a long time ago before you even listened to the guitar riffs or lyrics in the songs contained in his albums. So go ahead and trash talk all you want but realize all you are doing is hiding your own insecurities and ignorance of the topic you attempt to discuss and of which you pretend to minutely comprehend the issue in question.
Oh, if you don’t understand the words I’m using or the context in which I’m using them, chances are you are too immature to truly appreciate his musical genius, which is why this was written for you in the first place. OOPS.

The guy’s got talent, of this there is no doubt. He is, however, B-O-R-I-N-G.

Hes okay, I dont really like him. To the insane John Mayer fan below- if people dont like his music, then he isnt that good. You dont have to be an amazing artist to tell whether or not someone has talent.

Ever notice how when you rip on someone for having little talent, some of his/her fans show up and one of them will use the age old techniuqe of “well,you don’t have a record deal so you have no rigt to judge.”? To that I say: suck my balls.

I just wish he’d stop playing those Dave Matthews covers. What? Those are Mayer’s own songs? Oh … whoops. Sorry.

Arguing about music and talent is a complete waste of time. I can’t stand John Mayer’s music, but I am not going to sit here and insult him. The guy worked hard to get to where he is at, and he deserves the success he has. I love when people who have never accomplished a thing in their lives start interjecting opinions all over the place. Every musician who has made it deserves it..even pop stars who I cant stand half the time deserve it..afterall they didnt get to where they are at by sitting on rollingstone.com and arguing about which bands suck more…

wow, there sure are a lot of people who don’t like Mayer, or Mayer’s music? That’s not quite clear. However, i like Jonh Mayer’s music, it’s lovely, for a rainy afternoon with tea.

He was cute on Chappelle’s show.

If you think he has no talent, you’re blind. And a wannabe bluesman..how do you get people like B.B. King, Clapton, and Buddy Guy to say you’re this generations guitar hero and just be a wannabe. Nah he is my man. And he’s like dave matthews? Why cuz he plays acoustic guitar also? All I know is whoever doesn’t atleast give him credit is just closeminded and/or jealous. Peace.

thats a really hot interview thing… yay

I personally think that John Mayer is one of the best artists around today. Have you ever gone to one of his concerts? When he plays live it is amazing. Not like most artists today who either lipsync or those who sound nothing like they do on their cd. Mayer probably sounds the same if not better live. Who cares what he looks for in a girlfriend? We all have our lists of do’s and dont’s when looking for our significant others. We should stop paying attention to this kind of stuff and more to his music.

Can we all talk abut something else? This whole string of snarky comments is so BO-RING. Let’s all meet over at the “Maroon 5 are God” chatroom….’kay?

by the way…in jessica’s defense her mother publicly made a statement that her daughter has a genius IQ!

As a counter-point to Jessica’s mom’s reference to her daughters genius IQ. (and in absolutely no regard to Mr.Mayer)
Jessica’s mother is a money grubbing whore…but Jessica is smokin’ hot!
Sincerely yours
-Jessica’s Dad

I am surprised that no one has commented on Mayer’s blatant ripoff of the Marvin Gaye classic “Sexual Healing” which he calls “Waiting for the World to Change”. I hope Gaye’s estate sues his pansy lite rock ass.

that bj comment on angelina jolie is pretty damn funny

His music is just mediocre and his personality is awful. He’s obviously a huge fake. The crude thoughts he expresses in interviews are nothing like the songs he writes. I don’t know how some people can read an interview like this and say he deserves someone better than Jessica Simpson. Jessica would be a step up for him.

If I were John Mayer I’d be tappin’ Joss Stone’s fine ass.

Okay, I personally love John Mayer’s music and I love John Mayer. I love the old stuff and I love the direction his music is going in. He is a talented song writer, musician and performer and he is unlike anything else out there. He is beautiful in that tall dark and handsome way. Part of his appeal was that goofy, lovable “everyman” persona. With this last article he’s kind of changed all that. It’s as if he is trying so hard to show the tweeny fans what a dick he is. Now he’s smoking pot and drinking and womanizing. He’s right his “Stupid Mouth” is going to do damage to his career if it hasn’t already. Personally I think his music is amazing and he’s lucky it is because I don’t feel “him” anymore. That adorable face and charming wit is only gonna take you so far Mr. Mayer. I have to agree with the other post…it’s almost like he’s a big fake…he’s music is so sensitive and sinsere and then he acts like such an ass. I guess he figures we don’t have to like him, just his music. I believe I read once that he didn’t want to be a jaded, bitter musician. It’s sounds to me like he already is.

And I would just like to comment on the post that said WOTWTC was a Marvin Gaye rip off: if you really feel he ripped off Marvin Gaye don’t you think it’s more like “Mercy, Mercy Me”? I mean it doesn’t sound anything like “Sexual Healing”.

For the person that said Jessica would be a step up….
LMAO that girl is too hung up on what Daddy Simpson wants. You step backwards when you join that family. I can’t be the only one that thinks that her whole loyalty to Daddy, and Daddy being that involved in her life isn’t eerie. Yuck.

I’d love it if John went to my gym he’d definitly be the cute guy I’d want to do.

“Waiting on the World to Change” — if anything — would be a steal from Marvin Gaye’s “Inner City Blues.” Not “Sexual Healing,” as Mayer’s single is political, not sexual. Jackass.

i have to atmit, this is just on long heated dicussion about john mayer and whether he has talent or not. so, why don’t you people get a life, and shut the f— up.
Besides, dave matthews is the only talent on the market anyway.

Music copyright cases are mostly based upon copying the song structure such as the notes and chords and rhythm of the piece of music, not the fact that it is political or sexual in nature. If that were the case, someone like Bob Dylan could claim every “political” song was copied from him. So, there are three different Marvin Gaye songs that people believe are similar to Mayer’s song, including your take on it. Anyway you slice it, the song is a ripoff, Jackass.

I love John Mayer and have since he first started touring around Atlanta. The music on his very very first album was an indicator of his talent and musical ability. I would yell at those who called him a “Dave Matthews wanna be”, etc. He was a budding new artist with so much ahead of him. However, my opinion of the man changed after his appearance on stage last night in Indianapolis. I understand the need to promote a new album coming out next week and I actually really like the new music; however, where were the old songs that made me fall in love with this musician 6 years ago? Anything old he did play I hear on the radio every other day. What happened to “83″, “city love”, “comfortable”, or even “back to you”?? I was so happy when, during the encore he began to play songs from his very first album. I was even happier when he started singing my favorite song “love soon”. However, I began to see that this man was no longer the John Mayer I once knew when he started to mumble through the words and had to stop the song early, admitting that he did not remember the lyrics. I pose this question to you…how do you not remember the words to a song that you wrote? How do you not remember the words to a song that you sang on tour for probably around 2-3 years?? I was devistated. It’s like one of my friends said…I have experienced a relationship that has fallen apart. We have just gone in different directions. He has decided to “sell out” to the music industry and the 15 year olds who can’t possibly understand what it’s like to have a “mid-life crisis” that John sings about. I wish John the best of luck and hope that one day he will remember who he is and come back to his loyal fans as the wonderful and caring musician he had started out as.

I think it is funny how a lot of you get offended when others trash talk John Mayer. Not everyone has to like him… as for me, I like his music and I think he’s hot, he would be fun for a one night stand.

I agree with “Dana”. How sad is it that he doesn’t want to associate with all his older music. It’s what built his fan base and got him to this point. I think he’s trying really hard to break away from the whole pop image…the whole romance rumour didn’t help. So now he’s got to be all moody and jaded. He’s gotta turn his back on his own music. I remember every word of “love soon”. Maybe it’s the pot. Okay John, your edgy, we get it!

Nothing like a John Mayer article to bring out the idiots. And to whoever said Mayer is the next Bob Dylan, know that there is a tenth ring of Hell reserved for you and your ilk.

what kind of person tells someone to go to hell for expressing their opinions?

immaturity is certainly alive and well here…

and dave matthews still sucks

I like his music but he sounds like he can’t handle press well. One minute he’s calling women “bitches” the next minute he’s talking about the most recent good cry he had. Confused.

If he can play with artists like Buddy Guy and Dave Matthews and they accept him as an artist then thats all that matters. He also has a few guitars made for him and hes super hot so what ever. p.s loved the phone sex comment Jeff!

Dana, just a quick thought about forgetting lyrics. It may seem weird to fans who know all of his songs inside and out, but as a songwriter I can tell you, it is impossible to remember every word to everything you write. John has probably written at least 100 songs. Forgetting the lyrics to a few of them (especially to one he wrote several years ago) isn’t that big a deal. There are tons of songs that I’ve written that I could probably only remember a few lines from, if that. Even if he did sing the song on tour a few years ago, he’s written several songs since that are more fresh in his head.

I guess what I’m getting at is that songwriters forget their own songs sometimes, and I don’t think it’s reasonable to conclude that he doesn’t care anymore just because he forgot some of his lyrics on one song.

U SAY U DONT LIKE JOHN MAYER BUT IF HE WAS HERE U WOULD BE ALL ON HIS NUTZ

“Continuum” it’s going to be KIND yet MASSIVE.

Music By: John Mayer

Releasted into the atmosphere 09/12/2006 I’m there like a “3×5ft. square.”

Dana… I think you yourself have forgotten some of the lyrics. He sang about a “quarter life crisis”, not a “mid-life crisis”.

Dana. He STARTED playing blues, played very well written pop to get into the door, and is now merging the best of the two halves. Anything blues oriented is not usually welcomed into the mainstream. Example, a great majority of people don’t know who Albert King, Son House, or Robert Johnson are. Incorporating elements of the music he truly loves is far from selling out. My girlfriend hates the trio album, “Too much guitar.” I love it. That album sold modestly, but wasn’t nearly the success that his first two were. Remember, the word “pop” is often followed by the syllable “ular.” So what, makes his situation selling out?

I’ll be the mature one since most of you dips are still in high school and don’t know what talent is. John Mayer is a great guitarist. (Check out TRY and go to You Tube to see some amazing footage of John jamming away. He’s the one of the very few new faces in the music biz that is out of this world talented and is to our generation what Hendrix and Clapton were to their generation, what Stevie Ray was to the 1980s. He’s a guitar god. And to mr. Anonymous who thinks he doesn’t have talent. Yeah, watch You Tube.

He probably “forgot” those lyrics on purpose just to be an ass. Like, “Look I’m so different now, I can’t even *remember* what I wrote then.” Moron.

I’m so angry at John Mayer for being a druggie. We all know that he dated Jessica Simpson and he got pissed at her for going public so he ended it with her. He’s such a loser now and he seems like a total egotistical jackass. And when he finally does go to rehab, I’ll be laughing at him because someone needs to tell him what a fucked up little boy he is.

If you don’t like john mayer than F U…. end of story you bunch of retards… Im not even gonna argue with you terds.. ps Fed Up said it exactly how it is!!!

Wit,honesty, intelligence and cynicism. The perfect man. I thought it was bit wierd that he DIDN’T smoke weed and to be honest, I’m reassured!

anyone who thinks that John is a “sell out” or a jackass or whatever….just go read his blog on johnmayer.com and see how grateful he is to his fans! I love John!

Hey Nate,

As all us retards know, it’s turds. Not terds. Just FYI smart guy.

I just think once again this article that John Mayer gave is a total lie. A complete joke that is part of his dry sense of humor. Do you honestly believe anything that he said. He is probably laughing his a$$ off of the people that believe it.

everyone needs to step down from their soapboxes, stop trying to impress people on the internet for being classic rock enthusiasts, and realize that you are just like everyone else here. so am i, i know. okay so anyway someone posted something about him forgetting lyrics, and i really do have to say that people do that a lot, but i understand why you would be disappointed that he couldnt finish a song you love. okay and to the person that said the waiting on the world to change sounds like sexual healing, i thought that from the first time i heard it. it’s the same chord progression in a different key for a good portion of the song. im not saying that it doesnt have meaning as a song or that it’s meant to be sexual, so don’t comment back being like “jackass, it’s political!” because yes i know, the lyrics are talking about something political. but realize that music is something that is allowed to be discussed and if some guy thinks that it sounds like sexual healing, it doesnt make him a jackass because he has just as much say in any matter as you and i do. act like youre more than 12 years old.

I personally met John Mayer before…and he is a jerk. I don’t know what happened to him…I guess fame went to his head, but trust me, he is not the person everyone thinks he is. Talented, yes. Unfortunately, he lost the likeability he possessed before…it’s definitely a shame.

i have always loved this guy since last Q of 2001 – his lovesongfornothing was one of the best in the soundtrack of my life that year. My memories of my European trip always had that song in the background, on the ferry to calais, in the coach going to paris – in our hotel room in Milan – on the carriage at Innsbrucke sampling shnapps with the rest of the tour group…when i went to NY in spring of 02 – his CD was the first i bought. since then i have made sure to get all his CDs and DVDs, regardless of the fact that these items – orginals – are quite expensive where i come from, a country crazy over bootleg CDs – even my musician family members buy pirated stuff, never mind that this is the very same thing that robs them of their royalties in their recordings.

since then, i have not been really following his progress in his efforts to be recognized as a serious musician, despite his boyish charms and intellectual appeal. recently – i heard an interview he had where he sounded defensive about his musical choices, his band, his fame. why does he have to be subjected to that, when all he seems to want is to give us what he has and make us realize that not many words really rhyme with “bitch,” to borrow a funny line from that nice dianekeaton-jacknicholson film- unfortunately it meant having to explain why he is so popular, even with the most respected music critics. and if people think he’s pop, then pop aint all that bad.

i dont mean to be such a killjoy in this very enlightening exchange of opinions – but i wish i could tell everyone how much he means to me, with respect to my son, who has Asperger’s syndrome. He is a wonderful, wonderful boy, my son. One of his eccentricities is getting upset when he hears me singing, or playing the piano – and even humming a melody gets hims agitated – except when it is John Mayer’s music. John’s lyrics are so wonderful to explain to a boy like mine – who loves words but somehow interprets them literally. “leave the light on, i’ll never give up on you…” my son loves the idea. the thought that we always leave the porch light on, when his papa is out – and we would lie down in our bed in the dark – and he would whisper, “mum, let’s leave the light on ok? so papa will know we’re waiting right here.”

kathinthehat is vision-impaired at the moment so please pardon the typo – i meant lovesongfornoone.

Since we don’t understand how difficult it must be to be famous, but do understand how it is to be passionate about music and to be a fan of certain things. John Mayer’s music I am a fan of, his arrongance I am not a fan of. He continues to put him on a pestital which will in-fact hurt his career path as a musician since his songs writing will not improve since he’s lost touch. Let’s know those who dislike his antics will have value in the future when he “crashes and burns”…I hope he changes because I would like to here his music and to continue on with his success but karma is important these days, and to continue with pompous attitude and not embrace his fan base is problematic…
Best,
lover of mothers and daughters and all woman.

Also met Mayer like another person in this column…and indeed he is an arrogant SOB. Seriously. If his female fan base knew what he really thinks about women, they’d be shocked. Sure he’s talented. But a nice guy he AIN’T. Even his own roadies can tell you that.

I laugh because this is fun to read but sad that we are doing nothing.

This article is nothing compared to some of the things other people in the S.B. have said before. Want examples, ay? Well here they are:”George Bush hates black people”-Kanye West. “I love Katie Holmes”-Tom Cruise. “American Life(the whole song”-Madonna. “I did not have sexual relations with that woman”-Bill Clinton. People in Hollywood have said so many stupid thing and for people to get on his case for being in the public spot light and being single is retarded. He is not one of those guys that is like “I have to date someone famous”. He just wants a good girl. Plus, I am sure many-a-woman would be delighted to fulfill his needs (I would). Plus, all you guys out there, I sure you would want the same thing if you were in his position.

I LOVE!!!!!!!!!! THIS GUY I WOULD BE HIS ONE NIGHT STAND ANYTIME AND HE CAN PLAY THAT GUITAR

John Mayer has amazing talent.I love every aspect of his music. You can take it or leave it and so what if he is an asshole and likes weed.Is it really anyones business what he does in his private life? Its not like he is your roomate.

I adore John Mayer, I feel a kindered spirit to him. He is a
incredible musician. I have everything he ever recordered. His
lyrics are amazing, he is the real deal. I love him

He is very successful with great music and i love almost everything about him!

I wouldn’t care if Jessica Simpson sit’s on this guy’s face I wouldn’t buy one of his records.I would take it out of the case and see how far it would fly in the air.

jessica simpson sucks.

Why is john mayer with j simpson?

Its always an easier option to point fingers than actually attempt something yourself. Once you try playing music you realise it is something that comes from your soul and that is exactly where jon mayer is coming from.

I just got the song Waiting for the World to Change and couldnt believe how much it sounds like sexual healing. First thing I did was to google “waiting for the world to change sexual healing” and I found this thread. Good thing Im not the only one who thinks that way. Unless he has public assumed he based his song on Marvin Gayes’, this is stealing and its ridiculous

I love His music not his attitude….

Here is the life story of John Mayer: Complete dork in high school. Probably got beat up a lot, had his lunch money stolen, not many friends, etc. Very intelligent – good with words, great with music. He got lucky and made it big when “The Geeky Look” was in. Gained a following of teeny boppers. So this guy, who was once a loser, now has his pick of the litter. Instead of settling down with a sweet, innocent girl, like everyone would expect through his music, he basically became a manwhore. Egotistical, sexist little manwhore. And who can blame him? He know’s he is damn good, and he can have just about any woman he wants. So why not live the “good” life? I still hate him for choosing that route, but what man in his shoes wouldnt?

John Mayer totally ripped off my song… People Get Ready.

John Mayer is NOT selling out, in fact, his first album was close to selling out as any of his music, as the style of music on Room for Squares was not quite direction he intended to pursue. He stated in several interviews that blues artists such as Stevie Ray Vaughan and Buddy Guy was his major influences and inspirations. Even though his first two albums are absolutely amazing, its unfair to John to say that he’s “selling out” just because he wants to take another musical direction. He’s actually returning to his roots, picking the Fender Strat again, and cranking so good old fashion blues for us. The music on Continuum is refreshing, groundbreaking, and original. Even though this John is different from that of Room for Squares and Heavier Things, he’s still as creative and passionate as when he first started.

RIP OFF ARTIST John Mayer. Ripped off Dave Matthews vocal style and Curtis Mayfields hit “People Get Ready.” He calls it “Waiting on the world to change”, seems obvious to me anyway. GO LISTEN. How ORIGINAL is THAT? BLUESMAN? NO. GO LISTEN. And then we have to know about which Hollywood idiot he is screwing and what he thinks about the price of rice in China. PLEASE!! WHO CARES!! Hey John, how about doing something about these gas prices. This guy is all about being a celebrity. Don’t be surprised of he shows up in the next turd that Hollywood pushes out or if he is staring at you from a cereal box over breakfast. How about a John Mayer love doll so all his fans that adore him can REALLY have him every night. I usually don’t post anywhere but I hate this guy so much I am compelled to let out my feelings. thanks

The guy sucks, He’s a poser, he plays an SRV reliced clone guitar, A Jimi H. clone guitar. He has No soul,when he plays it’s painful. He acts like he’s really doing something, which is really nothing.
There are some excellent blues players out there and HE IS NOT ONE OF THEM. He needs to stick to writing bubble gum tunes for tweens.
Leave the blues to the real deal guys and girls.
Get real. If anyone here thinks he can play the blues you must be living in a box!!!!!!

I am too a blues man I am too a blues man I am too SRV, I am I am I am .. really I am.. MOMMIE… tell them I can play the blues..
That’s ok Johnny Just go in your room and practise for about the next 50 years!

there is no denying that this guy is a sick guitarist. no, he will never be another SRV, and he will never be another Hendrix, but come on this guys in his 20’s so cut him a break

He’s one of the very few celebrities that actually admits that he can be an asshole. Hell, rather him be honest than fake a “No i’m always a real nice guy”. I love him for that =].

I think John mayer is a real person .. he is as real as they come … he not into the hollywood glam scene and that. Good He makes music he love and he stay true to who he is … As farr as him playin the guitar … he sick…. he puts it down when he playes he draws u in … it like he looses his self sometimes … i think that he talented beyond word and he will around for many years to come .

haha this guys an asshole, but i love his music and you gotta love him for being real. thats a major turn on lol

Talent Test
STEP 1-pick up a guitar
STEP 2-Try to play any single 1 John Mayer Song the best you can even if it takes years
STEP 3- Record it
STEP 4- Listen to your recording and ask yourself ” does this sound anything like john mayer ?”
STEP 5 you realize John Mayer is also singing and playing that guitar riff that you tried to learn the past 10 years and realize that you don’t have half the talent John Mayer has in his left pinky.

Thats the talent test

the point i am making is that John Mayer is so good at what he does that i could take the songs that he wrote that he thought weren’t good enough for continum record those b sides songs myself come out with an album and become famous on John Mayer’s hand me down songs. Now the point is only Hendrix can know if John Mayer is worse as good or better than himself because he is actually that talented. it is impossible to know how talented someone is unless you are talented yourself.

Now on to John’s so called aroganse . John is the funniest Muscisian i have see since Blink 182. It is refreshing to see someone on Televisions who writes songs such as daughters then makes a video entitled 2guys1cup. that act alone gives me hope as a human being knowing that i can say 1 thing then do another, thats what america is built upon a country that can go to war but act like they don’t want to be at the same time. that makes me respect the shit out of john mayer and makes him more of an american then most of us will ever be.

John Mayer is awsome. Haters why bother posting? your stupid. Just ignore it and get over yourself. John Mayer has talent and is good value. Read his blogs the man has heart and brains.
And yes RollingStone is shit these days; what happened? Oh how the mighty have fallen…

THE BOMB YO! i dont care if hes a jerk or not, i love the music. thats all that matters right.. Genuine.

hmm…i could do that

hmm…i could do that

I LOVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVEEE EEEEEE HIM
