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".

Album Description:
Japanese pressing includes two bonus tracks. 2009.

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

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - New to Jason Mraz
I highly recommend Jason Mraz's music.It is easy listening with amazing lyrics. Sometimes I feel I understand his songs, and then I hear them again, and I have a new, deeper understanding of his message.There are many times during my day, when I am struggling with...whatever... and his lyrics pop into my mind: Live High, Live Mighty, Live Righteously and celebrate the malleable reality, nothing is ever as it seems....When I hear his music, I feel happy.This music has helped open my eyes & ...

I never expected this... I bought this cd by mistake. I thought I had it in my "save for later" list while I contemplated buying it, I placed an order for some other items and it showed up. Well, the two other cds I bought haven't gotten any love whatsoever because I've been playing 'We Sing, We Dance' continuously. And I'm not the type to do that. I can wear of a cd fairly quickly. But I find myself listening to this cd constantly... endlessly. I guess it's becaise of how individual each song is, ... Read More
