i agree. it is very 'in repair' in nature. it has the feel of the beatles 'hey jude' but in an alternate key. i'm not sure how much i like the album as a whole, but this may be my favorite track on it thus far [except for his cover of 'crossroads', which has this cool approach to it].
most if not all of the songs on the album are tinged with underwriting about a certain woman he's [mostly] been in the news with since his last release. and the fact that we all know this [and who he's writing/ singing about] takes away from that enigma or 'can be interpreted for any person' quality found in songs we all relate to so much.
anyway, it's just my opinion. when you and others get to listen to the whole album straight through, i'd love to read what others think. i give it higher marks with each additional listen...john mayer fans will definitely enjoy it. those looking for his blues/rawer side of him to come out [as i originally hoped for] is gonna have to wait for him to tour or show up on his next venture.
