When I saw John Mayer play on the Grammy's, the first thing that came to my mind was that it looked and sounded like he was influenced by Michael Hedges. Just an observation. I had never heard nor seen him play before that evening.

Is he not "the new Dave Matthews?" To tell you the truth, I don't particularly like "Your Body is a Wonderland". I think he has many better songs. He is an amazing guitarist...I'm not blown away by his singing. I think he is definately worth checking out. I wouldn't have selected that particular song but it seems so often that the material that gets the most exposure isn't nearly as good as other songs that get less attention.
