From John's official Twitter: "'Battle Studies' will be released on November 17. Single "Who Says" is coming soon..."
I'm excited for this! Hot AC is really having a great year with all these big name artists with new releases.

It seems after Pop last year, Hot AC is undergoing a resurgence this year thanks to estabilshed acts in this format releasing new material.

I hope it's good. I really did like 'Waiting On The World To Change' despite a super quick burnout (it only spent 14 weeks in my Top 100 after a Top 5 peak... NOT long at all...) but I do love it now. And I think 'Belief' is genius.
But at the same time, John can make some stinkers as well. So... we'll see.

The same thing is happening over at alt/active rock as well. This year all kinds of bands are making new albums. (Green Day, Paramore, Creed, Flyleaf, Breaking Benjamin etc)

I wonder if Jack Black can pronounce Mayer's name properly now (he failed to do so in 2003 on Saturday Night Live, at least for the performance of "Bigger Than My Body").

I'm disappointed in the song. I like the majority of John's music, but I expected more from the first single.

This is really a weak single from John. I'm sure his reference to getting high was "cool" to certain people (doesn't bother me personally) but once you get beyond that there's not much here. Cute little melody but for a lead single...I don't think much of it. I bet it took John about an hour to write this one. Yeah, you can write hits in that amount of time but the flip side is writing a great song takes more effort than that. I'm sure he'll get a grammy nom for it next year though.

I still expect his album to sell really well. He is a superstar and has a huge fanbase.

I'm sure his reference to getting high was "cool" to certain people (doesn't bother me personally) but once you get beyond that there's not much here. Totally disagree with this. I think there's a lot going on in this song. It's about aging ("it's been a long time since 22")... almost like a folk rock "What's My Age Again". It's in the vein of "No Such Thing" or "Why Georgia". It's Mayer sticking his middle finger up at society's expectations for the stage of life he's in. Who says a thirtysomething can't get stoned, sleep around, plan trips to Japan on impulse, and generally re-invent himself? At the same time, it's kind of sad because the guy is obviously living in the past ("call up a girl I used to know, fake love for an hour or so") and unsure where he's going with his life (a la "Why Georgia"), just doing random things on impulse. Mayer doesn't sound particularly satisfied with this way of life.

Already losing spins on Hot AC :( Sad cause I really love this song.
His next single will probably do better.
