Demi Lovato’s Recording a New Album, Wants to Sound Like John Mayer

I will totally admit to being a closet Demi Lovato fan. I actually thought her debut album, Don’t Forget, was pretty good. There were a few tracks I hated, but a bunch that I loved, and I’m secretly kind of psyched to hear that she’s doing a second album. Okay, I guess it’s not really a secret anymore. Also: she’d like it to sound like John Mayer. She actually used the phrase “John Mayer-ish.”

“I’m actually recording … well, writing the album right now. It’s going to take a different sound, so hopefully it goes over well,” she said. “I sing a lot of rock, but this time I want to do more John Mayer-ish type of songs. Hopefully I can write with people like him. I love their music — it would be amazing.”

When I hear the phrase “John Mayer-ish,” I don’t really think of music. I think of . Like, “I want to date a guy who’s really talented and successful and rich, but lets it go to his head and then treats me like crap and cheats on me constantly. You know, someone John Mayer-ish.”

Anyway, good luck with this, Demi. I’m excited to hear what you come up with.
