New John Mayer!

Filed under: John Mayer

Check out the just-released video for his new single, stoner song Who Says?, above.

The song is a sweet, simple little ditty and the video is kinda the antithesis to that, though. It looks big and expensive, kinda like a Mariah Carey vid - all glam and no substance!

Why so many beauty shots? You're pretty and all, John, but you don't need to be blown out and overexposed!

What do you think about the vid?

    Who gives a flying F about this fool. Sure I'll get stoned though lol!



  2. 2

    Also I don't fake love for an hour just to get a piece of ass. I'd rather go for the real thing. What a loser.



  3. 3

    John Mayer SUCKS!!!

    I love John Mayer. I LOVE pretty much anything he puts out. I'am satisfied.



  8. 8

    pure crap.



  9. 9

    i like it, it's very simple and calming.



  10. 10

    i like the song…..and the video seems fun.



  11. 11

    maybe i just like it because it makes me want to get stoned.
    ha…



  12. 12

    Re: ifyouseekkatie – I thought the same exact thing.



  13. 13

    it's good. Get OVER IT. Jesus, Perez.



  14. 14

    This song is good but the video isn't great



  15. 15

    NO. NO. Don't say that John isn't pretty, he definitely is



  16. 16

    This song should be retitled "Just In Case You Thought He Wasn't, John Mayer Is A Douche". I like the video though. It's different and I think the contrast works with the song…it's just a stupid song.



  17. 17

    It's a stoner's video. Nice.



  18. 18

    he is so sexxxxy.



  19. 19

    who else was smokin when they clicked on this nd didnt kno wut it was? nice.



  20. 20

    He's beautiful and talented but I dunno, there is something not hitting the spot for me with this song. Get stoned? Come on. Video very filmic and slick, he looks healthy too.



  21. 21

    I like this song, it has a good melody.



  22. 22

    hahaha the video is ridiculous



  23. 23

    Don't like it…sounds like a tune (not the words) from a song we would sing from elem school in the 70's.



  24. 24

    "Your body is a wonderland" makes me think of 6X ;)



  25. 25

    i looooove the way this song sounds, i just feel like he could have put more meaningful lyrics behind it.



  26. 26

    I like John but I am SO sick of celebs glamorizing drug use. Two thumbs down.



  27. 27

    And it's almost as (if not just as) narcissistic as a Mariah Carey video.



  28. 28

    Here's how to interpret the vote tally:

    no and so-so: gay
    yes: sick of perez @ hollywood wannabe dictator



  29. 29

    hes a sexy dirty boy!…i like looking at him. The Lyrics to the song however…….



  30. 30

    I don't think the questions os whether we like John Mayer's new video or not..

    The question is whether the tone of the video matches the song. I say not at all.

    JM seems to be 'out of touch' if you ask me..too Hollywood is my gut reaction….



  31. 31

    Re: stepford wifey – You are too funny…time to go to bed :o ) I'm sure JM and Perez are reading this as we speak…maybe they are kissing each other…



  32. 32

    I love John Mayer. I absolutely hate this song.



  33. 33

    He's fucking hot. Yummy!



  34. 34

    I kinda like John Mayers music in general, but I do have to say, I don't like this video - or the song.



  35. 35

    you dont like the video? wtf..
    what dont u like about it?
    i dont really get the lyrics or the message behind it but the video is really amazing, and the colors goes with the melody.



  36. 36

    kind of a nothing song



  37. 37

    I really don't like him that much but I have asked myself if his well hung.
    That kind'a intrigues me.
    If his reading this which he most probably is, because his a self promoting egocentric character. send me pic lol



  38. 38

    Re: LV-Entergetic – I do the like the video, but It's not one of his best.



  39. 39

    american apparel for less imaginarycreatures.net



  40. 40

    who says i can't make a glam video -john mayer

  41. andja says – reply to this


    41

    youre jealous perez



  42. 42

    see perez, you just don't get it. despite all the glitz and glam around him, he's tired and just wants to chill. i like the irony of the song with the nightlife going on around him.

    anyone else think john mayer is aging backwards? he looks younger to me know than he used to.



  43. 43

    perez, you just hate it cause john mayer calls you out on all the shit you talk. don't be a hater!



  44. 44

    It's feels relaxing/soothing to me. It's a good change from all the yelling and screaming that a lot of other musicians do.



  45. 45

    oh and i love the song and the video! if the song was simple sounding and the video was simple, then it would be boring. the way they contrast is beautiful.



  46. 46

    Musically, John Mayer is decent. The video–meh. It's not the worst. It's not the best either. As a person, I really can't stand the guy. I'd rather listen to him than see him. Self-absorbed pretty boys don't do much for me.



  47. 47

    What's with the hate? John Mayer and Mariah Carey are two of the most talented artists in the business. This and H.A.T.E.U. are my favorite songs at the moment. You're just bitter because she won't give you the time of day and he's not gay.



  48. 48

    John Mayer is Sexy….I'm going to faint.



  49. 49

    Re: haycline – haha, i agree.. he's getting much nicer to look at.
    love the song, the video is cool/awesome and can't frikin wait for his new album to come out!! a month and 3 days left.



  50. 50

    of all the talentless baffooons you obsess over you say THIS has no substance?!?! this was beautiful. its from the heart you can tell.



  51. 51

    i don't get how this is new.. considering it's been playing on my work radio and i've downloaded it months ago… i like it though..



  52. 52

    I'm a huge JM fan… however, the problem that I have, as a fan for many years, is it's reference to pot. I know that's not what the song is about. It's about not conforming to what people think… and doing what makes "you" happy, but he could have filled that lyric with something else more "shocking".
    I also think he needs to be careful with his image. He knows he has this reputation for a ladies killer. As a fan, I would think he should try to give off the image that he's more down to earth. Not jumping in a swimming pool with girls in their undies. Come on John! You're a better musician than this! Don't let the fame game get you!



  53. 53

    Me and my coworkers have been working around the clock to restore your data. Don't give up on the sidekick — it's a good product and the network engineering behind it is solid. Some people made some very bad decisions. After the lawsuits etc, when the smoke clears, the Sidekick will still be head and shoulders better than anything Microsoft offers up.

    You will get your data back soon.



  54. 54

    Why so many beauty shots? You're pretty and all, John, but you don't need to be blown out and overexposed!

    ?????????????? You do not spout such crap at the middle aged bitch Kylie for epposing all her ageing bits do you..hypocrite !!

    At least this dude can sing OK



  55. 55

    I want to take him in the woods and hide him in my cave. LOL



  56. 56

    cute video, stupid lyrics



  57. 57

    To begin with, the melody and John's voice is lovely as usual, but the lyrics seem to indicate that he's grown a bit tired and blasé about the life that surrounds him, after all, like in the video, it's not like he's lacking company or things to do.. but does it have any substance?

    So Perez, you might be right on the glossyness of the video, but I interpret it as john showing off a cynical side, wanting to free himself and in the process, finding something that actually means something -because nothing seems to right now.

    No need to throw punches at your secret crush, Perez, we all know u love him! ;-)



  58. 58

    Re: haycline – I totally agree!



  59. 59

    My God, this kid is brilliant. What a beautiful voice! I wish him THE BEST!



  60. 60

    Sounds like he wrote that song for Brad Pitt!!



  61. 61

    Nice melody, nice little tune, ok video…but lyrics, John, John, John…I know none of you guys take any responsibility for this.. its the who give an f generation, but my poor, impressionable son will take this as another thumbs up to drugs…just forget about everything and pick up your favorite mind numbing substance. God knows I've lost half my beautiful braincells to the 70's and 80's, I was just hopin and prayin things might change



  62. 62

    Horrible.



  63. 63

    perez always hates MARIAH. your always dragging her name to every negativity! what an ass. well i dont like him but i like the song a little.



  64. 64

    LOVE HIM!. Beautiful voice - he could sing about a swamp, and I would still listen to him.



  65. 65

    Time for the phony hype and heavy duty pr team because with out it his shit wouldn't be nothing.



  66. 66

    I think this has to be one of the first times I liked any music you put up, Perez. The song is pretty simple, but I wouldn't call it a "stoner" song– just because he sings about being stoned doesn't make it about potheads. It's about freedom, personal choice… and the party lifestyle. A little over-hyped with the video, though I like it, and I like the contrast between the 60s-folk inspiration and the gritty, modern music video… which might allude to a theme of Mayer's song (old roots, new media? just a guess)



  67. 67

    What happened to John Mayer. I was so in love with him in college. Back in the day when he would do small venues and outdoor concerts. He use to do it for the love of music. Coltrain, Vauhan, the sounds of the greats he use to put out but now it's a bunch of shit. Honestly who rights a ballad about getting stoned? Oh that right Douch Bags do. Right now John Mayer ranks up there with John Gosslin. Instead of being Mr. Hollywood douch bag, he needs to go back and just be John Mayer. Come on John bring it back to your roots.



  68. 68

    I can't stand this fake and that was awful!



  69. 69

    2ND look and it's still horrible. Don't like his voice. He can't dance worth crap.
    He is just running on pathetic. Yeah we know you screw as many fans as you can that's why half the ho-s post for you but stop fooling your self. Go take 2 years off then come back.



  70. 70

    By "getting stoned" im pretty sure he doesnt mean smoking weed. Its more of a who says i can't do what i want to do sorta meaning. You guys are stupid. I like the song. Its deeper than it sounds. Plus..john mayers perfect.

    Re: soccerchick26 – I'm pretty sure he means to get stoned lol. In fact, I feel like blazing up now too….. Bong it up!



  74. 74

    hes hot



  75. 75

    didnt bother-not watching a fucking commercial for your coffers to watch Mayer



  76. 76

    I think the video was SUPPOSED to be the antithesis of the song… can no one else see that?
    Anyway this guy turns me into MUSH I am a PUDDLE when I look at him, hear him… I don't know how much of the "douce" rumours are true, but from where I sit, he has one of the most soulful voices I've heard, and I love that I can recognize his guitar playing within 5 seconds of a song.

    I ADORE John Mayer - and I've missed every concert he's had here in Toronto, despite my best efforts.
    :(

    Love the song, love the video…



  77. 77

    i think the video was meant to be the antithesis of the feel of the song
    he admits in the lyrics his life is shallow and the video sort of goes along with that
    "…i dont remember you…"
    thats about the measure of the song….pretty song, but not meant to be life changing….



  78. 78

    Video does not match the music AT ALL. The lyrics are very amatuer. Like these lyrics I just wrote…I'm typing on the keyboard, who says, I can't do crack. I'm writing on the Perezhilton website, who says, I can't do crack. Now I'm done typing my view, who says, I can't do crack.



  79. 79

    He is a hot sexy beast to have mad crazy drunken dirty sex with for three days and then sober up and go back to your husband kind of guy. Song is good too!



  80. 80

    really really nice!!!!



  81. 81

    Low self esteem women will like that garbage.



  82. 82

    LOVE, love, love it



  83. 83

    I love it!! I can't wait till the album comes out. And I'll get stoned with you! :D



  84. 84

    The Miranda Lambert cotton commercial was better. John Mayer get over yourself. Your a famewhore.

  85. meme says – reply to this


    85

    Beautiful music, stupid lyrics. He could have written a beautiful love song with that music but instead he sings of getting stoned? LOSER



  86. 86

    This song is perfect and also the video!! Amazing!! John Mayer is amazing, so stop talking shit about him!! ;) Here's an advice, Perez…



  87. 87

    JOHN MAYER SUCKS ASS. YES, HE CAN WRITE SOME POP DITTIES BUT HE IS NOT A GOOD GUITARIST AND HAS GOTTEN LUCKY TO BE WHERE HE IS. HE DATES CELEBS FOR A REASON! HE IS A WANNABE FOR SURE! I HOPE HE DOESN'T TAKE HIMSELF VERY SERIOUSLY, NO ONE ELSE DOES. AND HIS SONGS ALL SOUND THE SAME….



  88. 88

    when did john mayer become so hoooottttt!!!!!????



  89. 89

    First off.. John Mayer is a talented musician. His video has no comparison to MARIAH VIDS. Oh thats right you wouldnt know good music your head is stuck up MADONNAS A$$. I mean really her vids are crap.. with her flashing her OLD A$$ VADGE any chance she gets. She is over-rated! You need to STOP HATING on people with TALENT.. TRUE TALENT!



  90. 90

    I love it!!! Wow! :) Perez you sound jealous of John, lol.



  91. 91

    the intro is way too long, i almost turned it off



  92. 92

    Whatever it takes to crash your sore poll.



  93. 93

    Perez, you're such a douche nozzle. You wouldn't know real talent if it smacked you in the face. You're just jealous of Mayer's talent, success and fame for something other than superficially critiquing those who have worked hard and actually earned their moment in the spotlight. I don't understand how what you do makes any lasting positive impact on humankind.



  94. 94

    I voted "so-so" but really liked the song. Video could have been a lot simpler.



  95. 95

    boring.



  96. 96

    John Mayer is so talented, but I miss his old stuff like Heavier Things! He used to have much stronger music and lyrics.



  97. 97

    yawn. another white privileged little bitch singing about pot and going to pool parties.



  98. 98

    Pretty good for lightweight pop.



  99. 99

    ummm….DOUCHE…..



  100. 100

    ive seen him out and he is an ugly douche bag
