John Mayer vs. Queen B

Beyoncé is amazing, and while I don't necessarily listen, or love, every single one of her songs, I still think she is incredible and is indeed "Queen B". She just rocks and can do no wrong. John Mayer, on the other hand, is also pretty amazing and his cover of Beyoncé's song XO is probably one of the best. Like I said, I don't exactly listen to Beyoncé on a daily basis; I don't know all of her songs, nor do I like all of her songs. Her new album, though, did get me more into her than I was before and I'd be lying if I said I didn't love her song XO. But then came along John Mayer's version of the XO and I kind of quickly jumped ships and became partial to his version because it's just that good. Beyoncé's version is great, but there is just something about the soothing music and softness of John Mayer's voice that makes it just a little better in my books. Now, if you're a die hard Beyoncé fan, I can't promise that you're going to love John Mayer's cover, but try looking at it as a completely different song, and there may be hope that you'll still like it, even if it's just a little bit.
