Heavier Things
''Heavier Things'' is the second studio album by American musician John Mayer, released September 9, 2003 on Columbia Records in the United States. The title of the album itself is a subtle response to certain criticism of Mayer's music.
The album debuted at number one on the U.S. ''Billboard'' 200 chart, selling 317,000 copies in its first week.〔Caulfield, Keith. ("John Mayer Snares No. 1 on Busy Billboard 200" ). billboard.com. November 25, 2009〕 Despite some negative criticism towards Mayer's songwriting, ''Heavier Things'' received generally positive reviews from music critics.
==Background==
Mayer felt he could be more relaxed and focus more on his art while making ''Heavier Things''. With Jack Joseph Puig as producer, loops and horns were more prominently featured.〔 Mayer took greater control of the creative side with this album; much of the album was recorded in his New York City apartment.〔Eliscu, Jenny (2003-11-27), "Songs in the Key of Mayer". ''Rolling Stone''. (936):52-56〕 He also got final approval on all radio-edits.〔
Columbia Records used a conservative marketing campaign to promote the album. Columbia Records Group president Will Botwin says. "We think we're being smart. It's a long-term project. We understand what we're creating is a career. Effectively, that's the message: Keep the hype at bay."〔 In keeping with that gameplan, the album's first single, "Bigger Than My Body", only went to radio a few weeks before the album's release; promotional broadcasts of the album were limited to MTV.com and Mayer's official site, both of whom began streaming the complete album the September 2 before its release. Scheduled television appearances included ''Saturday Night Live'' and several late shows.〔
