<P> Continuum received generally positive reviews from music critics . At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 67, based on 18 reviews . Matt Collar of Allmusic called it "a gorgeously produced, brilliantly stripped - to - basics album that incorporates blues, soft - funk, R&B, folk and pop in a sound that is totally owned by Mayer ." Mojo called it a "great blue - eyed soul record ." Ann Powers of the Los Angeles Times commented that Mayer is "best when treading softly, finding the fluid heart of blue - eyed soul", rather than on more "angst" - filled songs . Bryan Borzykowski of Now felt that "(Mayer's) melodic voice, warm production, complex riffs and thoughtful lyrics should cure the violent reactions Mayer's name used to evoke ." MSN Music's Robert Christgau gave Continuum a three - star honorable mention (), indicating "an enjoyable effort consumers attuned to its overriding aesthetic or individual vision may well treasure". He cited "Waiting on the World to Change" and "The Heart of Life" as highlights and quipped, "Saying in so many words what his less - gifted, more - pretentious contemporaries think it's cool to camouflage". Anthony DeCurtis, writing in Rolling Stone, called it "a smart, breezy album that deftly fuses his love for old - school blues and R&B with his natural gift for sharp melodies and well - constructed songs ." The magazine later ranked it the eleventh best album of 2006 . </P> <P> In a mixed review, Slant Magazine's Jonathan Keefe wrote that, "with no edge to the songwriting and with such spit - polished, tasteful production, Continuum just doesn't convince as a heady, soulful rock album or as Mayer's creative quantum leap forward". Jody Rosen, writing for Entertainment Weekly, felt that Mayer is too "classy" and wrote that, although the songs are "shapely" and "the musicianship is elegant and virtuosic", the music's "low - key loveliness dissipates into a sleep - inducing soft - rock haze ." Stylus Magazine stated that Mayer "calmly circles the same career themes with the same warmed - over, palatable guitar weavings". Q magazine called it "dour stuff reminiscent of a yogic Sting ." </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> No . </Th> <Th> Title </Th> <Th> Writer (s) </Th> <Th> Length </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1 . </Td> <Td> "Waiting on the World to Change" </Td> <Td> John Mayer </Td> <Td> 3: 21 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 2 . </Td> <Td> "I Don't Trust Myself (With Loving You)" </Td> <Td> Mayer </Td> <Td> 4: 52 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 3 . </Td> <Td> "Belief" </Td> <Td> Mayer </Td> <Td> 4: 02 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 4 . </Td> <Td> "Gravity" </Td> <Td> Mayer </Td> <Td> 4: 05 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 5 . </Td> <Td> "The Heart of Life" </Td> <Td> Mayer </Td> <Td> 3: 19 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 6 . </Td> <Td> "Vultures" </Td> <Td> Mayer, Steve Jordan, Pino Palladino </Td> <Td> 4: 11 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 7 . </Td> <Td> "Stop This Train" </Td> <Td> Mayer </Td> <Td> 4: 45 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 8 . </Td> <Td> "Slow Dancing in a Burning Room" </Td> <Td> Mayer </Td> <Td> 4: 02 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 9 . </Td> <Td> "Bold as Love" (The Jimi Hendrix Experience cover) </Td> <Td> Jimi Hendrix </Td> <Td> 4: 18 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 10 . </Td> <Td> "Dreaming with a Broken Heart" </Td> <Td> Mayer </Td> <Td> 4: 07 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 11 . </Td> <Td> "In Repair" </Td> <Td> Mayer, Charlie Hunter </Td> <Td> 6: 09 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 12 . </Td> <Td> "I'm Gonna Find Another You" </Td> <Td> Mayer </Td> <Td> 2: 43 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td_colspan="3"> Total length: </Td> <Td> 49: 54 </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Tr> <Th> No . </Th> <Th> Title </Th> <Th> Writer (s) </Th> <Th> Length </Th> </Tr>
