Contrary to what NFS4 would have us believe, John Mayer has ALWAYS sung like Dave Matthews. He uses a lot of the same stylings. There's nothing wrong with this, but it is pretty obvious.

They sound similar in some respects...lots of people sound similar to each other. But I don't go WOW, he sounds exactly like Dave when I play his music and I have all three albums of his (pre-ordered the newest one from Circuit City which will make 4)

You are the whitest black guy I've ever seen.
why? because he has better taste in music than 50 cent et al?

Ugh, I can't stand DMB. His voice is quite irritating. I consider John Mayer a slightly-less irritating version of Dave. Mayer does have some cred for covering a radiohead song though. I'll give him that.


indie rock all the way.

There is a passing similarity in vocals to DMB, but that is where the similarities end. If you gave JM a good listen you would realize this.

The new album has totally grown on me. I love it.
