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



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Jason Mraz
I already had the CD and sent this as a gift. The person I sent it to -loved it. His music is uplifting and a combination of folk and Jazz.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Disappointment City!
Extreme disappointment in this CD!!! I was expecting sheer genius and got sheer yuck! I'm Your's and Lucky must have been written and performed by an alternate identity...?



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Love this musician!
Favorite tune: Lucky. Love Jason's style and amazing lyrics. Hard not to enjoy this album.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Good, Not His Best
This album is pretty good. Mraz sticks with his usual light, happy style of music for the most part with some more upbeat songs. His sound doesn't change much from song to song here and doesn't seem very creative. New tricks, please.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I sang along, I cried, This Album Stole My Heart!
Here are some of my favorites on this album!


I'm yours-an appealing commercial favorite, the lyrics are very sweet and can be sung along to easily.

Lucky-Duet is sung w/ Colbie Caillat, about being in love with your best friend.


Love For a Child-about a child's point of view of their parents divorce. Innocent, touching, could make you cry.

Details In The Fabric-helped me through a tough time. I was on my way to my doctors w/ my son, ... Read More
