From Rolling Stone’s ‘100 Greatest Guitarists’:

“Before [John] Mayer was a heartthrob, he was a blues shredder who idolized Stevie Ray Vaughan. At his best (“Gravity”), he combines guitar fireworks and pop-song structure, slipping blues licks into radio playlists where all but synths and samples fear to tread.”

Had a Talk With My Old Man

John:
Help me understand.
John's Father:
Turn sixty-eight. You'll renegotiate. Don't stop this train. Don't, for a minute, change the place you're in. Don't think I couldn't ever understand. I tried my hand. John, honestly, we'll never stop this train.

Even when your hands are shaking,

And your faith is breaking,

Even as the eyes are closing,

Do it with a heart wide open,

Say what you need to say.

“I feel bad because people think “Heartbreak Warfare” is about [Aniston]. I want to go on record saying it’s not. When people hear the record, I hope the songs make them think about their lives, not my life. Like, when you listen to Coldplay, do you think about Gwyneth Paltrow? I don’t write songs in order to stick it to my exes. I don’t release underground dis tracks. [laughs]”

Are you listening, Swift?
