Jason Mraz is a musician's musician. His band is SMOKIN'. It's still a good tune. Excellent arrangements, too.
Well it's worth staying around to listen to. Radio played the devil out of I'm Yours that's on this album. The guy can sing (beautiful voice) and he can entertain - these can be mutually exclusive, but not in his case. This is one of them. The horns are fabulous and the rhythm section is too.
The writing is good. This album delivers on a lot of albums. It's got a great hook and is just plain catchy.How about the rest of the album. The lyrics are very entertaining at times, touching at others. They're tight.
Everything just fits together. There are few albums in which the entire album is good. I wish I had purchased it sooner.
Good grief, this thing was almost painful to get through. Fortunately, I borrowed it or I would've been annoyed that I wasted money on it.The best song (and the reason I borrowed it) was "I'm Yours." None of the rest of the songs even approached the bouncey and fun energy of that and I clicked from track to track in less than ten minutes.The cover art was awful. It looked as though it was drawn by a child and the titles of the songs and details (no lyrics, thankyouverymuch) in the enclosed booklet were hand-scrawled and difficult to read.My advice is to avoid purchasing this (unless you really enjoy Mraz's work) and just pay the.99 to download "I'm Yours." Jason appears to be a one-hit wonder.
In my opinion, this is one of the most enjoyable CDs released in at least the last 10 years. Wow. I was driving long distance recently, listening to one CD after another in the car stereo, and this one really stood out well above the others. The music is awesome, most of the lyrics are fun, interesting, and/or thought provoking, and the whole CD just flows from one song to another. An absolutely wonderful experience.
Best CD I bought this year.The year is young but this is a must have.
Not my favorite CD ever but definitely has a few really good songs. I'm Yours and Details in the Fabric are definitely worth a listen to.
