I really hope John Mayer gets rid of that drawl on his next album.

It's distracting sometimes. I think he's a talented songwriter (and very talented guitarist and performer), but wow, can his vocals be annoying!

the drawl doesn't bother me. it's those stupid fucking faces he makes when he's singing. like a gassy baby. or a baby that's spitting out its peas.

Yeah, that too. Like he's giving oral to the microphone.

perhaps there is a point when one can become too in love with a certain lesbian duo of studio musicians who used to work with a certain purple imp. i never thought such a thing possible. however, when one is actually aware of and following a feud between the underwhelming Mayer and the craptacular Rob Thomas because of them, i can't think of a better example. biggrin

nod I heard this cat on Leno and he can do some decent Blues if he loses the drawl like you said VC. Also, he can play the guitar quite well. I don't know if he'll get up to my boy Steve Ray Vaughn status but give him some time.

I'm pretty sure Stevie Ray is one of John's musical idols. He also talked a lot about the Police on his dvd commentary..

I want to marry him. Something about him I just love. I haven't noticed what a great guitar player he is (everyone seems to think so); but I just dig him. I like the raspy vocals, but then again, I like Tori. smile He is very self aware that he makes stupid faces and has a breathy voice..

I have all of his albums and I adore them.
