PART 6: BUTTERFLY

 

We all know I was going to have to get around to it eventually.  Yes, this is the perverted We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things. song.  But it's LATIN JAZZ, and we all know what a sucker I am for latin jazz<33.  It's a rockin song.  Dancy, dancy, perverted song.  God only knows why he wrote this one...

 

I'll post the youtube, but not the lyrics...

I lvoe it when he dives off the boat.  I'm sorry, but that's just cool.  Also, I like how he mentions the hip hop guitar thing.  I was like, dude, yes, you are a guitar virtuoso.  Don't be so humble =]  But yeah, I love how his songs post a challenge- to be memorized.  It's fun.  It's not j...

PART FIVE: IF IT KILLS ME

 

This one's off of We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things.  It was the second one I got really hooked to off the album.  The lyrics are all too appropriate for the Eave/ Me situation.  It's kind of an anthem- Succeed or die trying.  I don't think I have much to say about this one.  I listen to it over and over, much like the rest.  He plays it on a ukelele in concert.  It's just him, no features.

PART 4: WORDPLAY

This was the second Mraz song I got obsessive with.  Even now, when I listen to it, I can’t do it just once.  I’m still obsessed.  And I can proudly sing all the words =...

Today's song, as promised is Geek in the Pink.


This is, by far, Jason Mraz's best song (penultimated by I'm Yours).  It's the first Mraz song I ever heard.  It was introduced to me by Tina, and it wasn't even the song we were infatuated by.  It was Greg Sanders.  And yes, I tried to post the vid itself here, but Webs hates me, so I'll try to embed and if that doesn't work, I'll link it.

Today's Jason Jam-

 

I'm Yours (album version).

 

It's fitting, seeing how popular it is.  It was nominated for 3 Grammys (which will be on CBS on February 8th!).  Mraz and crew were very surprised with it's success.  It crept up on them out of nowhere.  It was written by Mraz and has chords that are impossible for me to play without a capo smile

 

In my personal opinion, the song is amazing.  I first became obsessed wit...
