    Say what you will about the guy but he can play a mean guitar and has a pretty decent voice plus, he is a funny son of a bitch!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKrrHe3Fkt4 He seems to have a good sense of humor. I was just re-reading this post and perhaps I like Mr. Mayer a little too much, not that there is anything wrong with that :oops: , I gotta cool my Mayer jets...DAMN!! :lol:

    I kind of like Continuum. Don't have any of his other stuff; I haven't heard anything appealing. I thought he did a great job on Bold As Love. However, if he covered Black, I might throw up.

    When he covers a song, it dies.
    He covered Jimi on his last album, and did crossroads and I'm on fire by bruce on his latest. I really dislike him.

    Completely agree. I personally can't stand him. Yeah, he's pretty good on guitar, but his vocals are absolutely awful and I think his songwriting is even worse. Imagining him cover Black makes me puke a little...

    You're funny.
    The other day, my nine year old son said... "raise your hand if you hate John Mayer" (with his arm in the air.)
    He saw some commercial and said.... "Mom, his voice stinks."
    I felt proud.

    Eric Clapton seems to see something in the guy. But I think if you asked Clapton to be completely honest about the guy's singing voice he would probably agree with most of us. It reeks of Dave Matthews and pop influences. Clapton should tape his mouth shut and force him to play in his back-up band. :lol:

    John was real into TEN, VS and Vitalogy. I know because I went to high school with him and was one of about 5 people who drove him around (he took forever to get his license) and we'd play those albums until we burned them out.

    A few years ago I got a late night text from him that said something like, "How awesome is No Code?" We had been talking about it a few weeks earlier and I guess he was listening to it late night.

    He definitely likes a lot of PJ stuff but I don't think he'd know most of the recent tunes.

    Black could possibly be one of the top 10 greatest rock songs of all time, therefore I'm sure alot of other people wish they had come up with it as well....as far as John Mayer, I don't care for his music, but I do respect his guitar playing....
