at least thats what i joke around and tell rj. all the time. i love john mayer. his music. john mayer’s songwriting. the way he makes faces when he plays the guitar. the way he looks in general. the way john mayer gives a fantastic interview. i could just give reason upon reason. i tell rj that john mayer gets me. i buy magazines when john mayer is on the cover. i made a coaster of john mayer’s rolling stone cover.
a john mayer concert was the first concert that my parents let me go to without one of my brothers. i went with my junior year boyfriend trevor and it was at the state theatre and it was amazing. i have been to three since then and i would have gone a month ago when he came to detroit but we were going to mexico.
i listen to john mayer all the time. pretty regularly, when i am cleaning the house, driving my crappy car, grocery shopping…when my itunes is on shuffle john mayer comes on i sing loudly and dance. but as of late i haven’t been listening to john mayer on my usual daily basis.
this is because i saw jessica simpson on oprah a few weeks ago briefly address some pretty awful things that john mayer said about her in playboy magazine. she didn’t say much, other than she was hurt. she didn’t say anything horrible about him like she could have. she had this huge media platform of oprah to say something. but she didn’t. she was graceful. i get that john mayer says certain things to get attention and sell records and for the shock value. but he said hurtful things about this woman that he supposedly loved.
i’ve always thought that john mayer needed jesus. but now i just can’t listen to some of his songs the same way. i haven’t put my john mayer playlist on or watched my live dvd.
i still think john mayer is an amazing singer. guitarist. songwriter. but he’s no rj grunewald.
