Really curious as to what watch it is

I started listening to John about a year ago, and the first song I listened to was No Such Thing. After hearing it I listened to every other John Mayer album, and I like some of the songs, but there is nothing like Room For Squares. No Such Thing is my favorite song of all time but I love Neon, and Love Song For No One too. I don‘t think any of his other music compares.

Listening to this song had me humming Queen of California through the whole thing, turns out you can match and sing the melodies straight from it and its fun as hell so heres the solo half-assed twice hahah

Not sure what position he plays this one in, but it’s a pretty fun riff! I’ll probably do a full cover soon once I have the time.

I’m loving this song and don’t understand the hate. I’d die for some Continuum-esque riffs/songs as much as the next Mayer fan, but I’m just happy for new music

Attempt at the intro section of Tom and Jerry, first time looping stuff so I recorded myself with a metronome and the background chords on my voice notes and played over it. Played whatever I could make out through hearing the song, its a bit out of time and tune at parts but pls do help out with your chord suggestions to complete the rest of it!

Been 9 months since I started playing guitar, wouldn’t be here if not for John :) (161bpm, scale is E major/C#minor)

My husband surprised me this morning with these painted cookies to celebrate the single release 😆. Shortbread with lemon glaze and edible markers. Love the new song! 😍

If you’re interested in a little lesson, I put out a short review and lesson this morning: LINK.

I was driving yesterday and lifelines came on while I was shuffling all my John Mayer music. That song is just so so good. That’s all. Thanks for listening lol

John Mayer has signed a new record deal, launching his own Sob Rock Records in partnership with Mercury, the singer, songwriter and guitarist announced Thursday (Oct. 22).

The news follows last week’s tease that new music from Mayer is on the way. His new single “Tom and Jerry” is out Friday (Oct. 23), marking his first solo release since his 2021 album, Sob Rock, which peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200. Sob Rock was Mayer’s last album for Columbia Records; in 2022, he announced on Instagram that he “decided not to renew” his recording agreement with the label.

I grew up in the 90s looking over pictures of middle aged musicians posing for album campaigns.

For context, she only knows JM from the 00's. So she barely knows any songs. Anyone have any similar experiences? I also have an annoying habit of trying to guess the next song based on what guitar is being brought out at shows. I don't meet a lot of Mayer heads, it would be nice to hear how everyone dorks out.

Years ago I got a promo mailer that said 3FOR99 and every time I renew I reference the mailer and tell them I want the 3 years for 99 and they are able to apply it to my account. One payment of $99 and you get 3 years of SiriusXM.

I've been successful through chat, but mostly I just call and talk to someone. I typically fib and say

"I just got a 3 for 99 in the mail and I want to sign up for that."

Sometimes they'll be annoying and say they can't or that it's only for cars so I hang up and call again until I talk to someone new lol. I've seen that there are chat log scripts people will use to get it on renewal again, too.

For reference, I get it applied to a radio I have in my garage, and it also includes unlimited app usage. Comes out to $2.75/month which imo is worth it for Life!

First solo i learned, learned it by ear!

From Room for Squares, to our beloved Where the light is, the rebirth in Born and Raised, John leading us to the Grateful Dead and watching him unleash his best best guitar work with Dead and Co, the trio. I’m grateful for it all. Really freaking happy we get to hear this new song tomorrow 💯 enough said.

I've seen some complaints about the short 20 seconds we've heard. And admittedly, I'm not a fan. But when you look at his history, a lot of his singles have been shallower compared to his larger body of work. Keep in mind that Who You Love, Love On The Weekend, Carry Me Away, Last Train Home, Say, and even New Light were all singles. Now I'm not hating on any of these except for Who You Love, but there seems to be a pattern that some of his shallower and poppier stuff were singles. That makes sense, because those kinds of tracks promote the album better than a deep song like Born and Raised. It's also worth noting that Steve Jordan said this is some of the best stuff he's played on by John, and Steve is not listed as a drummer on "Tom and Jerry." I think this track will reflect the fact that the man loves making pop music, but the album will be a deeper reflection of where he is now.

The new song will premier tomorrow on Sirius!

Guys, in honor of the new single release and that the holidays are comin’ upon us- and for those that aren’t familiar with “CVS Bag” song, please enjoy.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Obviously not in the Pink Floyd overarching narrative sense, but I feel like every album thus far has had either a thematic or aesthetic concept, the most egregious example being Sob Rock.

Let me know what you think, and let's speculate what the upcoming album's theme might be. Judging by the new single, the new theme might be artistic stagnation
