 Jason Mraz is the best! April 24, 2008
I love everything Jason Mraz has ever done so I can't say anything but positive things about his CD's.
 His rocket finally came March 29, 2006

Jason Mraz's style has always been contemporary rock with a little bit of hip-hop flavor. That made for good songs AND bad songs, however; while he could score on tracks like "The Remedy" and "Curbside Prophet", he fell flat on "Too Much Food". I was also worried that maybe that style would wear itself out. Fortunately, Jason broadens his horizons more on Mr. A-Z.
"Wordplay" is a song that still successfully carries his signature style (what the HELL kind of video was that, though?), but things are even more interesting when he slows things down. I didn't know how he would sound on a ballad, but he actually does quite well on them: check out "Bella Luna" or "O. Lover". "Song For a Friend" is also pretty good, although I'm not sure how many people will want to sit through an eight-minute song.
It's also notable that Rachael Yamagata sings background on a few tracks (so the liner notes say, anyway; I don't remember actually hearing her -- speaking of Rachael, pick up her album Happenstance if you haven't yet). In the end, aside from a couple of skippable tracks like "Geek In the Pink" and the corny, sexually charged "The Forecast", this is a fine album from Mr. A-Z that proves that his rocket has indeed landed.

I have loved Jason Mraz since I bought his second album. After playing it for several months straight, I thought he could never out-do himself on the next album. He has. This album is so complex, so energizing and peaceful, with brilliant lyrics and even better music. You can tell he has thought about every single word and note, and every song leaves me with a smile. I have told all of my friends to buy this album, even if they have never heard him. It is a safe "blind buy" for any Mraz fan. I will forever be a fan after this album.
Another great record August 22, 2005

This is a great sophmore album. Right now my favorite is "Please Don't Tell Her." I am also fond of "Geek in the Pink." Jason is great at writing funny and smart lyrics. He can also sing different styles of music like a champ. Can't wait for the next record to come out.
