Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Jason Mraz’s first set of all-new material in nearly three years, WE SING. WE DANCE. WE STEAL THINGS. sees Mraz continuing to tread his own distinctive artistic path, melding a variegated musical tapestry with passionate, personal lyricism. Among the highlights are collaborations with British tunesmith James Morrison and singer/ songwriter Colbie Caillat. "I’m Yours," the album’s first single, was chosen due to the undeniable fan response to the song. A demo version of "I’m Yours" originally appeared on a limited release bonus EP Mraz put out with his last album. Today the song is an online sensation, with hundreds of usergenerated videos from more than 25 different countries now appearing on YouTube. Jason will be hitting the road this April on the "Music, Magic & Make Peace Tour". Amazon.co.uk: Since 2002’s jaunty Waiting for My Rocket to Come, Jason Mraz has developed into a more mature, well-rounded pop artist. We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things is his most multi-dimensional work yet, covering everything from groove-based material to ballads. While tracks such as "Make It Mine" and "Butterfly" refer back to the catchy style of previous albums, there are many other styles and textures on display here. His duet with Colbie Caillat, "Lucky," for example, explores his folkish, acoustic side, as does the compelling "Details in the Fabric," both of which are excellent songs. Mraz gets a little more experimental on "Coyotes," which toys with a clubby electronica and strangely seems to work, and on "The Dynamo of Volition" for which he employs a hectic, rapping-style of vocal over a typically contagious rhythm. His ballads, such as "Love For A Child", "If It Kills Me" and "Beautiful Mess" (these last two saved for the end) show a more sensitive side and even when his lyrics are occasionally clumsy, Mraz manages to make his point in an emotive way. Easy-going and sunny, but with laudable elements of depth and innovation, this is Mraz at his best so far.--Danny McKenna Average Rating:
 Rating:  - best cd i've heard in forever!the cd prompted me to go see him live, best two hours of live music i've heard in a loooooong time. he can do everything, sing, move (mmhmmm), be funny, keep the audience totally engaged....buy this cd, it's the next best thing to being there. Rating: - AmazingI like pretty much all kinds of music, short of extremely hardcore rap and country. Jason Mraz is one of the best singers I've ever heard and his amazing songwriting ability creates a dreamlike musical experience that I feel like I can relate to personally in my own life. This music helped me through lots of hard times and I can't recommend it highly enough. Rating: - Mraz is Variety!Jason Mraz is an amazing musician in that he is so versitile! I am 47, my daughters are 12 and 15, and we all love his music. He sings something for everyone on this album. Rating: - Really impressed, excellent albumI never heard of Jason Mraz until a week ago when Amazon suggested the album when I was browsing for Lizz Wright. I listened to a few samples and went out to buy the album the next day. The songs are extremely catchy, all have their own character, are really original and do not bore you after a few listens. The production is also top-notch, quality of the recording/mixing is fabulous. The use of a horn section on a few songs is excellent, reminds me of Phil Collins' earlier albums. Absolutely recommended! Rating: - SO NICE & BEAUTIFUL POP ALBUM ! ! !For his third album, We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things, singer-songwriter Jason Mraz has delivered a breezy collection of pop songs that take their cues from the '70s. The result is an engaging, easygoing listen that never quite gets out of first gear. The songs wash over you, often like a cool breeze on a hot summer's day, but unlike previous Mraz LPs there's a sense that he's a little too chilled musically and there's not enough diversity. That said, some of the songwriting displays real honesty, ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
