That out-of-the-box success—and more than a few critics grousing that Mayer's muse was cloned from Dave Matthews—primed him for the typical sophomore slump. Instead, Mayer delivers an album whose tone and title suggests a gentle, tongue-in-cheek rebuke to his naysayers. Propelled by the subtle ambitions of an expanded pop-jazz framework (largely courtesy of Sheryl Crow\/No Doubt\/Jellyfish producer Jack Joseph Puig), Mayer's breathy vocal tack now suggests a detached, conflicted, and significantly less precious incarnation of Michael Franks. But the way he weds fluid pop hooks to lyrical concerns whose self-obsessions are undercut by telling dollops of self-deprecation should clearly draw listeners in, from the my-spirit's-too-big\/smart-for-my-body laments of \"Clarity,\" upbeat single \"Bigger Than My Body,\" and bluesy plea \"Come Back to Bed\" to the cautionary, melodically-rich \"Daughters\" and even the anti-materialist agitprop of \"Something's Missing.\"\n--Jerry McCulley\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 696998618527\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0696998618527\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IDshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42225770168579,"sku":"ZG-TU45-9D8N","price":3.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0030\/9765\/7390\/products\/51-EhbRPDjL.jpg?v=1639819273","url":"https:\/\/id-shop-ca.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/heavier-things","provider":"ID Shop.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
