I got no issue with Sob Rock being ranked high....but I think the majority of JM fans will agree it isn't number one, and that Continuum should be. That being said, MUCH respect and no hate at all. Seems like it's getting harder and harder to find big JM fans around.
I kind of get that. I was a little confused when I saw I Guess I Just Feel Like on it, though I love the song, so I don’t care. New Light and Carry Me Away fit so perfectly though
I do really enjoy it for what it is and I respect its superfans. I’m just always gonna choose rock and pop over that style. I also love the way it almost rebooted his career, and I’m always down for artists switching up their sound
@@trevorbennett Nice mate!Personally, I think sob rock deserves top spot. I got into JM same time as you…so Sob Rock is like my continuum. It’s the quintessential album that got me hooked. For most of his fans in ‘06, that was continuum, for me in 2021 that was Sob Rock.
YES! I did a similar thing where I listened to all of his albums back to back and I also put Sob Rock at number 1! Glad im not crazy lol My album ranking 1.Sob rock 2.Continuum 3.Room for squares 4.Battle studies 5.Born and raised 6.Heavier things 7.Paradise valley 8. The search for everything
I think the only thing I really disagree with is how low born and raised is. Sob rock being at 1 is also interesting but I would have it as my second choice anyways so that is understandable. My album/song rankings... 1. Continuum- Gravity 2. Sob Rock- Wild Blue 3. Battle Studies- Edge of Desire 4. Born and Raised- Born and Raised 5. Room for Squares- Neon (Inside wants out would go here) 6. The Search for Everything- In the Blood 7. Paradise Valley- Waitin on the Day 8. Heavier Things- Daughters
Don’t worry. Since the making of this video, Born and Raised has moved several ranks for me. Also, I agree with Wild Blue. One of his best songs period
No I agree, I love sob rock, top 2 album for sure. Think it's going to age really well and be a really fun project for fans to come back to after he releases a couple more albums. Just a warm, 80's summer album that people will love. B&R is so loved by fans and that took a while for people to really enjoy so give it time, people will look to it as a happy place.
Glad to see so many people share my love for Sob Rock. For being 2 decades into his career, it’s impressive that he’s still making some of his most compelling work
No you're real for Sob Rock that album is so underrated there are 2 songs I like to skip because they haven't sit well with me but by far it's a great album great list btw
I'm a musician, I play every single day, and I ranked them exactly the same haha im a punk and rock guy too. its funny how unpopular it is to mentio n john mayer to that crowd lmao most of the time I can't wait for their reaction 😂 Im over here clapping and laughing but if you like music itself at all, you like all music .
@@Kyle_Nichols You gotta remember I’m a relative newbie to a lot of the JM fans. I need time for his different works to sink in. And I again, I like pop and rock, so his more “in your face” songs just stick around for me better.

I completely agree that Continuum is objectively the best
Choosing Half of My Heart over Assassin as your favorite song off of Battle Studies is a CRIME. Props to you for being bold.
Lol thanks. I need to listen to Battle Studies again
Sob Rock only gets hate because of the 3 previous singles added on the album, other than that it’s so good as a complete album
I kind of get that. I was a little confused when I saw I Guess I Just Feel Like on it, though I love the song, so I don’t care. New Light and Carry Me Away fit so perfectly though
Born and raised being so low is a crime 😩☹️
I do really enjoy it for what it is and I respect its superfans. I’m just always gonna choose rock and pop over that style. I also love the way it almost rebooted his career, and I’m always down for artists switching up their sound
I also say Sob Rock is his best- just a fun, well done album. He knocked it out of the park with that one.
It’s my go-to summer album
Born and raised will grow on you, just wait…I’m 22 and it didn’t hit me till this year how much of a banger this record is track for track.
I’ve been thinking a lot about my ranking, and I think if I were to do it again, I’d put it at number 5, just below Heavier Things

1.Sob rock
2.Continuum
3.Room for squares
4.Battle studies

6.Heavier things
7.Paradise valley
8. The search for everything
Love it!
Edge of Desire is one of JM best songs and you said that on battle studies your favorite song is Half Of My Heart? Nonsense
Clicked just because I wanted to know where you put sob rock, wasn’t disappointed
Hell yeah!
Absolutely agree with this list! Sob Rock is also my favorite and what got me into John Mayer. Glad I’m not the only one.
Hell yeah!
Edge of Desire will always be my #1 song. I love being sad
I think the only thing I really disagree with is how low born and raised is. Sob rock being at 1 is also interesting but I would have it as my second choice anyways so that is understandable.
My album/song rankings...
1. Continuum- Gravity
2. Sob Rock- Wild Blue
3. Battle Studies- Edge of Desire
4. Born and Raised- Born and Raised
5. Room for Squares- Neon
(Inside wants out would go here)
6. The Search for Everything- In the Blood

born and raised best album
I respect that. I might have said the same thing at another point in my life
I think Born and raised is his second best after Continuum
I can get on board with that. Since making this video, Born and Raised has been upped a few spots for me
Ok, this is mine
1. Born and Raised
2. Continuum
3. Sob Rock
4. Battle Studies
5. TSFE
6. Paradise Valley
7. Inside wants Out
8. Room 4 Squares
I like this list. Putting Room For Squares dead last is bold and I respect it
I mean, if a JM's albums gets a lower grade than others, it only means that there are also a couple of songs you'd like if you like this "low-tier"
I don’t quite know what you mean, but I like songs from all of his albums
Nice video!
Nice comment!
No you're real for Sob Rock that album is so underrated there are 2 songs I like to skip because they haven't sit well with me but by far it's a great album great list btw
Same here. There are very few albums in general that are completely no skips for me
born and raised not being top 3 is CRIMINAL
It could definitely make my top 5 if I redid this list. I regret my placement for that one
I'm a musician, I play every single day, and I ranked them exactly the same haha im a punk and rock guy too. its funny how unpopular it is to mentio n john mayer to that crowd lmao most of the time I can't wait for their reaction 😂 Im over here clapping and laughing but if you like music itself at all, you like all music .
EXACTLY. I only know one guy in real life who’s into JM, and he also plays guitar lol
You are insane
Yeah Continuum not being on one basically disqualifies you as a Mayerhead. Im sorry but you did this to yourself. Not Subscribing.
Fair enough. I do agree that it’s objectively his best album
Disappointment
You were warned
@@trevorbennett What about Edge of Desire man, that song alone has an entire fan base, for a reason
@@Kyle_Nichols You gotta remember I’m a relative newbie to a lot of the JM fans. I need time for his different works to sink in. And I again, I like pop and rock, so his more “in your face” songs just stick around for me better.
