It's not so much the sound that I was calling pop, they definitely have their own sound. Just that the lyrics/subject matter is more pop versus personal/heartfelt. And this has caused a huge shift in his vocal delivery, from sincere to more of a pop song delivery (yes with his own style). It just doesn't feel real and that's one thing I liked about MM in the beginning. That's all.

I'd love to see your signature/links too, but the huge and obnoxious ones have caused me to block all signatures.
