What do you guys think of him?? I was never a really big fan of him until i heard his new song 'who says' cant say i was expecting a weed reference from him. But I think his music is starting to grow on me now.

I think he is mellow and easy on the ears.
The song I believe was directed at an Ex girlfriend.
in my world he doesn't exist.
He's actually a really talented jazz guitarist, but sadly, his sappy mindless lyrics seem to overshadow his skill. A perfect example of a promising artist gone astray for the paycheck. Can't say I would blame him though. Have you seen the women he dates??
I always thought Mayer was the spokesman for preppy highschool girls and people that Birdwatch in their freetime.
He paid some dues along the way touring the small clubs.
Pretty widely known as a celebrity stoner, the song says it all.
i bird watch :wtf:Quote:

I wouldn't buy a CD of his, but I wouldnt change the station if he came on the radio.
hm name rings a bell, think maybe it was like the free mp3 you get with a new install of windows or new computer i got years ago, maybe my old laptop?... :DQuote:

I think he writes songs that only appeal to specific groups like teenage girls and what not.. and I think his guitar playing is extremely overrated.. any other guitar playre with his skill.. thats not as famous would just be another guitar player and thats 1000% truth
Very easy music to listen to. Not crazy about it but would still listen.
How about John Mayall!!!! :D

he's very good live and hardly over rated as a guitarist
last album not as good as "continuum", imo.
He might not be overrated as a guitarists on a large scale but within his fanbase they think hes the best thing smokin on guitar. As a guitar player myself I'd say he's slightly above average and nothing he plays is even close to being challenging to pick up
Outside of his sappy lyrics and celebrity BS..
Check out John Mayer Trio - TRY.. this is a band I'd like to hear more from..
but.. if you want to hear a really smokin' young guitarist.. check out Derek Trucks.
Peace, Farmer Rich
