March 13, 201016 yr Full article here: http://www.playboy.com/articles/john-mayer-playboy-interview/index.html?page=1 The reference to Coldplay: PLAYBOY: What percentage of the album is about Aniston? MAYER: I don’t want to say. I feel bad because people think “Heartbreak Warfare” is about her. I want to go on record saying it’s not. That woman would never use heartbreak warfare. That woman was the most communicative, sweetest, kindest person. When people hear the record, I hope the songs make them think about their lives, not my life. Like, when you listen to Coldplay, do you think about Gwyneth Paltrow? I don’t write songs in order to stick it to my exes. I don’t release underground dis tracks. [laughs] Just thought I'd share!
March 13, 201016 yr Author I thought that line was pretty funny too. :D But the rest of the interview contains way too much personal information. I prefer Chris's policy of not talking about Gwyneth in interviews. John Mayer needs to take a page from Mr. Martin. No one needs to know about how great Jessica Simpson is in bed and all that other stuff, although the interview as a whole is rather... "enlightening". ;)
March 13, 201016 yr :lol: Wow really?? I prefer Chris' policy too, its a lot more...subtle I guess. No one needs to know about Jessica simpson at all:rolleyes:
March 13, 201016 yr John Mayer needs to take a page from Mr. Martin. John Mayer needs to stop being such a douchebag. :P
March 13, 201016 yr Author John Mayer needs to stop being such a douchebag. :P Based on that article, I'm sure he'd get a real kick out of us calling him a douchebag. He really does come across as a total douche in that interview though... In all seriousness, though, the reason I don't think about Gwyneth when I listen to Coldplay is because Chris doesn't rub his relationship with Gwyneth in everyone's face, and I don't know way too much information about their relationship that I can't help but wonder if any of the lyrics are about her. In contrast to John Mayer, the public can't help but be confronted with information about his relationships with Jessica Simpson and Jennifer Aniston - so it's no wonder everyone wonders if this or that lyric is about whichever Hollywood bimbo he's dating. So I'm not sure if his point about "when you listen to Coldplay, do you think about Gwyneth Paltrow?" really has any applicability to his own music.
March 13, 201016 yr Author Since when do musicians interview/give Playboy time? (or vice versa o.O) When said musicians stop being just musicians and become celebrities who date Hollywood bimbos. Or something like that.

He is a bit of a douche but i think there is a nice guy under all that crap. Agreed - he's a fantastic guitarist. Very impressive live. I really do think he's a douchebag though. ;)
March 14, 201016 yr Author ^Lol like Green Day fans. I don't know enough about Green Day to agree or disagree, but I imagine there are quite a few bands & artists where the fans think they're douchebags personally but fantastic musicians otherwise. :D
