When I think of music, one of the first artists that comes to mind is John Mayer. Let's face it, I'm going to off Jessica Simpson and claim him as my own and have him serenade me every night with his sweet soulful sound! haha! Just kidding, but seriously it's going to happen! But besides my slight obsession of wanting him to be mine for all time, John Mayer has a style that is continuously evolving, which just from a personal observation, I bet that's why his latest album is called Continuum. Hmm something to think about...
I digress. The point I was trying to make was that only someone who has established themselves completely in the music industry would be able to pull off the success that John Mayer is conquering right now. With his first couple of albums, he was merely establishing a fan base. He was reeling in the women with songs of romance like "Your Body is a Wonderland" (aka the song I listen to and know he's singing it just for me!) and the men with "Bigger Than My Body." But it seems more common now that if you were to ask a group of young adults who some of their favorite current artists are, John Mayer would certainly be included in their lists. He wowed producers and other artists with his immense talent on the guitar and his amazing vocal abilities to the point that he was being marketed to sing with other artists and finally, when his famedom was large enough, he was released to do something younger artists that already had a mainstream establishment couldn't have pulled off.
