The Top Ten

1Your Body Is a Wonderland
One of the best songs I've heard lately. Great stuff by Mayer
It makes girls feel appreciated.. Aside from the good vibe of the beat of the song.. The lyrics are sincere and not too shaggy...
It's so relaxing and yeah, chicks do dig this song. The lyrics are just amazing!

4Slow Dancing In a Burning Room
It is so beautiful and true, it almost makes me cry.

You can feel the emotion and the pain in his voice, and I think that everyone can feel it in his or her heart.

This song isn't only the best song of John Mayer, it's the best song in my life!
This song reminds me of my old self so I believe that it's the best song from John Mayer; I've never heard a better song from all new artists.
One of the most emotional guitar riffs you'll ever hear. Not to mention the tone... Such a meaningful song, definitely one of his best.

this song is incredible and should be what we all live by. I even taught it to my friends so we all sing it whenever were about to fall asleep.
Amazing vocals, even more amazing guitar, it's just the perfect song
it's all true, anyone should say what they need to say
Say what you need to say!
John has a voice so drowsy and at the same time light and happy that its, its, words can't explain the feeling

7Gravity (Live)
This song is amazing. Not only does John do good, but the whole band too.

Bman23

This is the track that made me fall in love with Mayer. The beginning of it is absolutely gorgeous along with the rest of the song. The guitar solo toward the end is pure talent. Love Mayer.
The guitars, his voice, the whole band, and the harmony that this song has, is just amazing. I recommend it to everyone that knows what a real and good music is. :)

8Free Fallin'
John Mayer is at least a damn good musician and songwriter. One Direction are just bricks in a puzzle with no other talent than singing, like Bieber and Rihanna
It isn't often that the cover is better than the original.. But John Mayer completely gives Tom Petty a run for his money!
Mayer's Best song Of All Time!

Top 5 material.. Can't be a better way to tell a story in a song.. Great vocals as always by john... Glad that your parents met, JOHN!
Sounds a bit like Lovebug by The Jonas Brothers in the beginning, but of course no one can compare to John! Great song. Makes me happy.
Come on, by far the best lyrics of any Mayer Song. Just listen!

18Edge of Desire
That top ten list is not complete without this song, in fact, it deserves to be right there at the top, any spot less than that is injustice. Period!

27Split Screen Sadness
The bridge in this song is great.

Bman23

Hands down one of Mayer's best songs
I don't know how this isn't in the top ten. Also In Your Atmosphere should be higher. I love this song. It talks about two people who break up and see other people but on the inside they're actually miserable. Its spilt screen saddness because its hard for both of them. "Two wrongs make it all alright tonight"-this is saying that the two people are spending the night with the wrong people. They actually miss each other but don't know it yet. Vote for this song!
