Some people do not understand my taste in music.
Take Joe and Kautsar for example.
They do not understand why I like John Mayer so much.
Well, to be fair, I do not understand or share the same taste in music as they do.
To each their own, which includes Jie and Pei Jin's insane obsession about Super Junior...
So yes, I love John Mayer.

I admit, I think he has personality issues. And I somehow get the feeling that he is abit too narcist and show off-y.
BUT, when I say I love John Mayer, I meant I love him musically :D
A lot of people think that he has a weird voice. I think its awesome. Husky voice = sexy. HELLO DON'T YOU GET IT??? Haha
By the way, you do know that his voice is different from when he sings and when he speaks?
The thing about John is, not only is he an awesome musician, he is an AMAZING performer!

Think of Patrick Stump from Fall Out Boys. We have all heard his songs on the radio, we all know what his voice sounds like, right?
Have you heard Patrick perform LIVE?

Epic fail I tell you.
Voice cracking like nobody's business!
That goes the same for a whole lot of other so-called artist such as Taylor Swift and Jason Derulo. Yes people, your precious princess Taylor cannot sing live!
But not John. He can sing for 1 hour plus, and his voice won't crack. It will stay consistent!
Mind you, not many people can do this! Especially not a bunch of these contemporary artist of our generation.
John is an amazing guitarist. One of the main reasons why I love him so much.
Ok, you listen to some of his songs on radio, not much emphasis on the guitar. But watch him live and you'll know what I mean.
I seriously have to thank my cousin Azrul for putting John's live concert in LA into my Ipod.
Where The Light Is is the title. And it is about 2 hours of John John John JOHN!!!

Three different styles of his music, one genre after another. Awesome vocals. And even more awesome guitar skills!

The three incarnations of his music were from pop (from his earlier albums), to the John Mayer trio (a trio with him, Pino Pallodino and Steve Jordan, covering songs by various artist such as Jimi Hendrix), to blues (his more recent songs).

His guitar skills are kick-ass! And the song arrangement together with the band is awesome. But I have to say, he makes funny faces when he sings. Hehe
I can watch Where The Light Is over and over again, and not get bored!
The first time I watched it was on the plane back to KL, and on the bus from the airport to KL sentral.
And ever since, I have been watching it again, and again. Not everyday, mind you.
These days, I like to plug in my Ipod, open up Itunes and just play the video from start to finish, minimise the screen and listen to the concert while I am studying.
I like :)
This is my favourite song from the concert.
Go watch that sexy man play the guitar hehe!
