John Mayer - "Room For Squares"

I wake up to an acoustic version of a song from this album every day, track 3, "My Stupid Mouth". I bought this album about a year after it came out. It's full of melancholy songs about all the drama of being in your 20s. Considering I was 26, going through a divorce and trying to find employment after graduating from grad school it sort of struck a chord with me. I still listen to songs from this album pretty regularly. In fact, I have a station on Pandora.com based around it. My favorite track is St. Patrick's Day, both because of the music and the words. It's very melancholy and I find myself in that mood a lot. And just in case you aren't familiar with it, you can listen to samples at Amazon.
