    I was a kid when Battle Studies came out, Heartbreak Warfare and Half of my Heart were two songs that came on the radio every single day when I was in school or in the car for example. Now that I'm in my twenties this is the album I listen to if I want to deal with my emotions regarding love. It helps when you get or have feelings for someone, it helps with a heartbreak. It is a master piece. So I guess I am one of the >10 %.

    I think his best album is Heavier Things, with Born and Raised not far behind. Heavier Things is just so pure, some of the most poetic lyrics combined with soft and melodic kind of jazzy but still rock electric guitar.

    I don’t have a favorite Mayer album, they’re all so different, sometimes I really feel like some acoustic room for squares, sometimes some laidback born and raised, then I’m feeling some electric continuum and other times I fancy myself some feelgood grooves from the search for everything etc. The guy literally has no skips for me, the songs really grow on you.

    Born & Raised. This is the album that made me take John seriously as a musician and take a deep dive on his work. My brother had kept trying to convince me he's a blues guy while I was out literally touring in a blues band, and all I heard before was body is a wonderland, waiting on the world, all that weak sauce stuff. But years later when my music career slowed, I heard Queen Of California, bought the album, and became sold on JM. It was a perfect storm of circumstances and I'm thankful for it

  • @BobbyGadgePart2
    @BobbyGadgePart2 Год назад +3

    Born & Raised is my personal favorite. I think what makes Mayer an interesting career to follow is how deep he digs into his influences and then makes them his own. He hangs around an idea for 2 or so albums and then onto the next thing. In a recent interview with during the set break for Dead & Co. He was talking about listening to a lot of Pink Floyd so I'm really interested to see if/how that manifests on his next record.

    Oi, picking a favorite album of his is so difficult for me, because there are things about every single one of them that I wholeheartedly love. So many of his songs across his entire discography speak to me, and that’s not easy for any artist to do. Songs like Why Georgia and City Love are super relatable for me, as well as tracks like Clarity, In Repair, Something’s Missing, Stop This Train, Good Love Is On The Way, War Of My Life, Born and Raised, Dear Marie, Roll It On Home, Shot In The Dark, the list could go on for centuries. So I’m going to say all of them, because I really cannot choose.

I love the fact that he keeps reinventing himself. While I may not like all of his songs, he is always doing something interesting.

I have never given JM a fair try so my disdain for JM is solely based on all of his "popular" songs that get over played on the radio, department store speakers, ect... Room for Squares seems to be a fan favorite in the comments, so..I'll give it a fair try.
