John Mayer-Continuum

[lokiju]

I've been listening to this album since he did his broadcast preview of it on that radio station and still think it's great.

Been my most listened to album for the past month.

I went to Saratoga Performing Arts Center and Darien Lake. Both shows were unbelievable. Second row center for both =) I also went to sound check at Darien Lake.

Too bad that *&^#er isn't coming to NC this go 'round! :|:|:|:|:|

Saw him in Cary, NC a few years ago and it was great.

I was in Cary, NC 2 weeks ago! Nice place

If he does, I hope it's better than the Gravity "live" to Gravity "CD" transition. It seems as though Vultures made it through unscathed but they raped Gravity IMHO.

He's been trying to break that image for a long time. I read an article where he stated that he begged his record label manager not to put daughters on the album. He pretty much didn't want anyone hearing that song. However, the song was put on the album, and that solidified his position as a "teenie bopper" pop artist. Now he's finally starting to be taken seriously. I suggest you guys "find" Hummingbird with BB King, You Can Make it if You Try with Sly and the Family Stone, Stitched up with Herbie Hancock and Man on the Side from his Any Given Thursday CD. Inner City Blues is awesome too from his As/Is CD. Might be harder to find, but it's an amazing cover of the Marvin Gaye song.

Inner City Blues
not the as/is version, but it's from another show on the same tour.

Hrmm? I always thought he appealed to the under 16 teenie bopper type crowd. Maybe I'll have to download it.

You can blame "Your Body is a Wonderland" for that.

And that Father/Daughter song and that teenie bopper tv show he had. But other than that not teenie bopper at all.

that show was awesome! the entire point of the show was to make fun of the teenie boppers and watch it sail over their heads

OMG! Friggin' AWESOME! I gotta send this to my mom. She is a DIE HARD Marvin Gaye fan. She has all of his albums. She also loves John Mayer so it should be interesting to see what she thinks

Just got the album, I love it. Don't normally listen to this kind of music, but "Waiting on the World to Change" is so catchy, and I'm really likin the rest of the album.

8/10

Me too. As is my GF. It's also the reason why she has my CD now

There was some blues special on PBS with John Mayer and a bunch of guests including BB King. :Q I saw the last little bit of it and I haven't seen it since.

That kid's amazing. I've been diggin his music since he first hit the radio. I raced off to buy the CD and I get pretty antsy waiting for the next one.

that'd be his austin city limits appearance with special guests buddy guy and double trouble. mostly his pop act, but the 3 or so songs with BG and DT belt out the blues rool;

I could have sworn they were on a stage outside in the early evening for the show I saw.

Hey, I gave my GF my CD after I ripped it to my iPod. Does anyone know if Sting wrote "Belief?" It sure does sound like a Sting song through and through. I know that Sting wrote "Message in a Bottle" that John song on Any Given Thursday.

I am not sure what you are asking. Are you asking if Sting wrote Belief for John Mayer? Message in a Bottle is a classic Sting song (it's no secret he wrote it) and John Mayer covered it (though this is news to me since I don't remember hearing it on Any Given Thursday). Or are you saying this might be another cover?

I was asking if Sting wrote "Belief" b/c it sounds like a Sting-y song.
I know that Message in a Bottle is a Sting song. Mayer sang it on AGT, Disc 1.

Track #7

message in a bottle is a POLICE song.

Was sting not a part of Police and didn't he write it?

I tell you; the more I listen to Belief, the more I can't help but think about our current political/world outlook
