"Oodles of talent"

This review in today's ST by Yeow Kai Chai on JM's "Where the Light is" CD really cracked me up......

====================================================================

"Don't you just hate John Mayer? He's got oodles of talent, looks yummy and, well, has the best accessory in town, Jennifer Aniston.

Here's another reason to detest him: a double-disc live set that flaunts his credentials as a heart-breaker and a credible musician. Divided into three segments-an acoustic set, his trio and a full band- it covers all the bases beautifully.

Women would swoon at his croon as it drips caramel over slo-mo guitar riffs in songs as deadly as Gravity, Free Fallin' and Slow Dancing in a Burning Room.

Guys, on the other hand, would sing along to the triumphant Waiting On the World To Change, as if Barack Obama is already in the house."
