Mind you, most of the Andertons fawning is just to make more money...all marketing in the end.

My head said brake, but my heart cried never.
*Edit, I just got the chorus of “Why you no love me” and despite working at home alone, as soon as I heard that lyric “oh, fuck off” came out of my mouth without a single thought. What a wank lyric.
New Light is ok I guess.
I think I've already stated earlier in the thread that I'm not a fan, but I don't really want to re-open the "he's a twat"/"oh no he isn't" debate.
I'm just wondering what people think of the general idea of releasing an album which is essentially a sort of joke. It sounds like some of the songs are pretty crap, even in the opinion of fans, and perhaps Mayer would say "ah, but it's supposed to be crap, that's the point" - but that doesn't change the fact that they're not enjoyable to listen to. And he's expecting people to pay for it (although to be fair they're more likely streaming it for free).
It's a bit like intentionally making a bad horror movie - the director can say "I put in all those stupid cliches and jump scares on purpose", but they're still stupid cliches and they're still tedious to watch. "So bad it's good" is something you can really only achieve accidentally.

Album as a whole is ok. Probably my least favourite of his last 4-5 releases. As others allude to and as with much of his pop output, will translate far better live. Schmaltz for the 20-30 something young ladies, guitar soloing vessels for the players.
