John Mayer is pretty awesome. Although Daughters is far from his best work, even that album...which is far from his best album.

Yeah, he's got talent, but his music isn't for everyone, and the song that won him that is probably the one I've liked the least of the ones I've heard by him.

At least Hoobastank didn't win. What were they even doing on the nominees list? Their song was so (I forget the word for when they have a computer fill in for crappy singing) that it was as fake as lipsynching.

I'm surprised Ashlee Simpson didn't get a bunch of nominations....:disgust:

So you've listened to all 4 of his albums and all of his songs?

Hell no, only 11 year old girls who sit in their rooms and cry all night would want to do such a thing.

So what do you listen to?

The Grammys are put on by soul-less music industry hacks for morons. They allways pick the most horrible POS band out that year who happened to sell alot of albums. Didn't they give a metal award to Jethro Tull?

he's an ok guitarist, and it's sad that that's notable in pop music

his songs suck, IMO, but he's still slightly better than the rest of the trash that was up for awards.

other grammy winners who suck worse than JM:

maroon5 (one song is not worthy of best new artist, sorry)
Los Lonely Boys (who?)
Britney Spears (even though I have Toxic on my ipod)
Kish Kash (who?)
Rod Stewart (he should get a lifetime achievement award for sucking... and he dumped stacy's mom, idiot)
Bruce Springsteen (i didn't even know he had a new album last year)
Velvet Revolver (bought the CD, wished I hadn't. The guy in the next cube actually told me to never, ever play it again after the suffering through the songs with endless screaming)
Brian Wilson (bought Smile, don't get it. Some of the songs are just horrible, but every reviewer couldn't stop praising the guy as the second coming.)
Wilco (I can't name one song or even their style of music other than "alt-college-rock")
Black Eyed Peas (re-recorded "lets get retarded" for NBA commercial and won a grammy for it... please)
Tim McGraw
Dixie Chicks
Bill Clinton (best spoken work album)
Zach Braff (garden state)


Actually Brian Wilson and Wilco are good!

fixed. I liked smile alot. Maroon 5 is trash.

youve gotta be kidding. that has to be one of the most annoying and awful songs of the year. The lyrics blow, and so does hid voice.

Hey now... John Mayer is pretty cool. Me thinks you're just jealous of the boatload of chicks that he's probably bringing in those sappy love songs of his.

BTW, he played the Crossroads Guitar Festival w/ Clapton, BB King, and a bunch of the other world's greatest living guitarists. You just have sh!t taste in music.
I never said he's not a good guitarist. CC Deville (of Poison) is actually a very competent guitarist as well, but that doesn't mean his band doesn't suck ass.

Ok, dude. I was with you until you dissed Poison.

Ok, that song sucks....
 

Posted in another grammy thread. Saw this on another forum:

But you gotta hand it to John Mayer. When he sings "Your body is a Wonderland" in concert, every fat chick in the audience with her belly hanging out of her Britney Spears low cut jeans thinks he singing only to her. Not a dry seat in the house. When they all stand up out of their seats at once it sounds like 10,000 pieces of velcro being ripped apart.

LMAO.

I don't think that was song of of the year, but John Mayer is certainly a talented guitarist. Those who knock him obviously haven't ever seen him in concert... his lyrics might leave something to be desired sometimes but his guitar playing is top notch.

That's funny!

John Mayor atleast deserves a grammy for tagging Jennifer Love Hewitt and that song about her.

I'm not really familiar with any of his songs. I've seen him on Chapelle's Show and he seems like he's a decent guitarist. I haven't watched the Grammy's since about 97 or 98 when Smashing Pumpkins were on.

It's never really been an accurate representation of the music industry, IMHO.
