John Mayer: Room For Squares
built 606 days ago
Few debuts match the fanfare and sales that Mayer's Room For Squares recieved. Thanks to the success of the first single "No Such Thing" and the Grammy-award winning track "Your Body is a Wonderland," Mayer's first album went triple platinum and remained on Billboard's Top 200 list for more than 80 consecutive weeks. Mayer has since released a second effort, Heavier Things, which is on its way to proving that Mayer is no one-album wonder.
