John Mayer, Sis

The Search For Everything

[johnmayersis]

Alright, I'm gonna have to amend the ratings of 2 songs: I gave Why You No Love Me & CMA a 6/10, but now it's an 8/10 for both. CMA is much better now wow, & the lyrics are much better than I thought. So the lowest rating on Sob Rock for me is an 8. & at 1st we thought adding 3 old songs was cheap & lazy, but in hindsight it was brilliant & plausible. NL sets the tone for the 80s album vibe, IGIJFL is relevant to 2020 & CMA is how we felt during quarantine. John is a soothsayer/seer.

John was right about this one. Those 10 songs work together and listening to them together makes you appreciate what each one brings to the table. And now we have this ballad version of LTH 😍

Your top 5 is basically my top 5, except mine in order goes: All I Want Is to Be With You, IGIJFL, Shot In the Dark, TTROC, Wild Blue. Wild Blue & TTROC are slowly becoming his best songs ever. Wild Blue might be one of his grooviest songs ever. Have you digested it enough to rank it in his catalog? My ranking would go Continuum, B&R, Sob Rock, TSFE, Heavier Things, Battle Studies, RFS, PV. Sob Rock would be 9/10 for me, & in terms of production, it’s up there with Continuum, B&R & TSFE.

I am not as advanced as you when it comes to narrowing this stuff down so quickly. However, based on how I’m feeling now, Sob Rock is definitely top three for me. My ranking would be B&R, Continuum then Sob Rock. It just feels complete.

I’m feeling real proud of us rn! It’s amazing for an artist like John to accomplish this in the streaming age with a 10-song album.

T*ylor’s fans are such shitheads. Yeah, I said shitheads. They make her look so bad, in fact it’s kinda obvious most people who hate her honestly only hate her bc of her dumb fans. They can’t stop making her look bad. It’s also so amusing how dense they are acting like they know for a fact what happened between 2 people, when no one knows jack what really happened between two people.

Lol, not surprising. I feel like most pop stars have toxic fan bases. I guess that’s what drives sales and popularity nowadays.

My top five songs on Sob Rock are (in no order): Shot in the Dark, All I Want is to Be With You, I Guess I Just Feel Like, Wild Blue & Til the Right One Comes (for now). But mostly I just listen to all 10 songs over and over again.

Shot in the Dark is the perfect 80s song. As he said on I believe Zane Lowe, he wanted to plant false memories on listeners’ heads. That song brings you back to 80s, & the video is totally 80s even with the font. I love the satire with all the 80s homage compilation. Til the Right One Comes makes you smile. It’s feels cute but intense. I like the ending cause it sounds like he’s being snarky with the person, like saying “See, told you I’d find someone.” Great piece of art.

I love everything about SITD. And TTROC is so wholesome.

I absolutely love Sob Rock! I enjoyed it 1st listen, but it goes by smooth & fast that you can repeat it 3x in a row & digest it. 80s feel. It sounds very cohesive w/simplistic but deep lyrics. My ranking from 1st to last w/ratings: 1. All I want Is to Be With You(10/10) 2. IGIJFL(10/10) 3. Shot In the Dark(9/10) 4. Til the Right One Comes(9/10) 5. Wild Blue(9/10) 6. Shouldn’t Matter(9/10) 7. Last Train Home(9/10) 8. NL(8/10) 9. Why You No Love Me(6/10) 10. Carry Me Away(6/10). Any faves?

Sob Rock is that girl. It’s giving everything it’s supposed to give. 80s pop and soft rock mixed with the Americana guitar twang and blues rifts that are part of JM’s DNA. Songwriting on point. Lyrically sound. Well produced. He just got in his bag and stayed there.

When I first found out that he was including the older songs on the album and that there would only be 10, I was a bit let down. But man, did he put the songs together and almost made them sound new within the construct of the project. It just works. It’s almost like listening to them for the first time. Like I was saying before, even Last Train Home hits different when you hear it with the other songs.

I said all that to say that I don’t really have a favorite just yet lol. I need to listen to it more over the weekend. But I am impressed. Come back and ask me what my favorites are in a few days!

Nooo, not at all. I stopped following all the other JM pages awhile back. No one ever posted any news or updates, so I appreciate you still taking the time to do so!

JM pretty much abandoned us here and went to be with the cool kids at [insert new social media platform here] lol, but I quite enjoy the chill vibes here so thank you! I could do way better though.
