Pros: Clever and introspective lyrics, proficiency with both electric and acoustic guitar. Cons: A few songs run together near the end; Dave Matthews comparisons may bug some people.
You gotta love a guy who uses the periodic table as the artwork for his CD. Okay, so maybe being a bit of a square isn't all that John Mayer and I have in common. But it's a good start. The main thing that drew me to this young rising star was ...
Pros: All different kinds of songs! Some nice guitar work and clever lyrics. Cons: I think the best of John Mayer is still hiding up his sleeve.
I still remember the first time I heard "No Such Thing". My first thought was "Hey, this must be Where Are You Going." The bridge didn't sound like something the Dave Matthews Band would do, though. But...
Pros: Combines the styles of several modern folk-rockers and adds a energetic spark of its own Cons: Can be tough to find, especially if you're looking for the most recent release
I recently moved back home to the town where I grew up. In a lot of ways, it has been a positive move for me. I have the job I've been holding out for the last few years, I'm much closer to family and friends, and I'm living much closer to signs of...
Nice voice, some good songs and he already showed what a budding songwriter he is.
Cons: The end drags and the songs start sounding the same.
If anyone loves the John Mayer of today with his bluesy riffs, sensitive but pointed lyrics and amazing voice then you owe it to yourself to get his debut album <b>Room For Squares</b>. Filled with his more humble pop beginnings with early ...
Pros: Elegant songwriting, nice music, great voice. Cons: None.
You have to love that a quiet guy with so much talent like John Mayer just went platinum without a whole lot of hoopla around him. Having just reviewed B2K and trying to get some of my credibility back – the most appropriate choice I could think...
Pros: John has an intimate voice, a way with words and a warped sense of humor! Cons: None, really. Some of the songs are a bit same-sounding.
The first thing people are gonna say about John Mayer reminds them of Dave Matthews, which is true to a degree. Vocally speaking, at least, he suggests a slightly raspier version of Dave. His songwriting, however, has a plain-spoken, Everygy appeal that...
Pros: Well-written, good vocalist and musician Cons: sometimes doesn't catch your attention on later tracks
I first heard of John Mayer on my old stand-by, WXPN, but for the longest time I couldn't tell you about any of his songs - just that I liked him. But with my "free CDs" binge, I got to see what all the talk was about. I got both Room ...
Pros: soothing music, great for get-togethers, all around solid album Cons: a track of two sound kind of flat played side by side
This is a review for my write-off, the Young Writers W/O. A while ago I realized that there were lots of teenagers and young adults on this site and while most of them wrote vigorously, none of them got nearly enough attention. I hope this W/O...
I have been listening to John Mayer's debut album Room for Squares for about a year, and in that time, I have managed to memorize every song. Why, you might ask? Because every single song has a tremendous emotional impact on me every time I hear ...
Pros: Very mellow and relaxing Cons: First album, and not laced over with tracks
Being compared to many other artists isn’t exactly the idea that John Mayer had in mind. Especially when he is just as good, if not better than the artist in question. John Mayer, an Atlanta native, has not had it nearly as easy as some...
Pros: Great voice, music, and lyrics that anyone can relate to Cons: Would have liked a couple more songs :)
Hey guys, good lord, it seems as though I’m writing one of these a month nowadays. Sorry, there just hasn’t been anything out there to make me go out and write, ya know? Well, luckily I have found this new guy who made me excited enough to write about...
Pros: Great vocals and music. Catchy and clever. Cons: --
I'd seen the video and heard the song. John Mayer was cute and the tune and lyrics were catchy pop. The rest of the album must suck right? Thats what I though. Normally a cute guy with a pop single is an untalented person with a lucky hit single....
Pros: Extremely well made example of a fading genre...Intelligencia Folk Rock. Cons: Sticks a little too closely to its formula at times.
Poor John Mayer. Gigging around Atlanta coffeehouses, he was relentlessly compared to Shawn Mullins. And now that he's got a major label record under his belt that's doing very well, he can't seem to turn around without being called the new and/or...
Pros: Clever lyrics, great songs, John's voice Cons: We get cheated out of a track...lol! (read review)
John Mayer is high on the list of my favorite artists. The first time I heard of him was when the video for "No Such Thing" came on MTV. I immediately fell in love with the thoughtful lyrics, wonderful melody, and yes, John's very cute face (he's just ...
