I consider Jason Mraz as one of those very talented song writers, and i would gladly kill anyone who would oppose me in this. Hehehehe. Joke!
But honestly, i have great respect and adoration in his music. his songs are euphoric, i could almost feel the exact feeling of having sniffed ganja or any stimulant drug. god forbid, i have not!
you might suppose that i'm writing this blog because i'm just one of those who were swept off by his 'i'm yours' song.. nope nope nope... actually, jason mraz has been around for more than a decade, i think! when i was in my college years, his songs like remedy, curbside prophet, i melt with you, you and i, and of course Wordplay has been my solace for my very boring study episodes. yup yup, i was quite a nerd then and i couldn't live without hearing yiruma, enya, mozart or beethoven in the background everytime i study.
hhmmm... i don't know how to end this, so i just leave you the lyric of my most fave jason mraz song, wordplay. here it goes!
I've been all around the world
I've been a new sensation
But it doesn't really matter
In this ge-generation
The sophomore slump is an uphill battle
And someone said that ain't my scene
'Cause they need a new song
Like a new religion
Music for the television
I can't do the long division
Someone do the math
For the record label puts me on the shelf up in the freezer
Gotta find another way to live the life of leisure
So I drop my top,
Mix and a mingle
Is everybody ready for the single and it goes...
Ha La La La La
L-listen closer to the verse I lay
Ha La La La La
It's all about the wordplay
Ha La La La love
The wonderful thing it does
Because, because
I am the wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa-la-la's
Yeah The Mr. A to Z
They say I'm all about the wordplay
When it's time to get ill I got your remedy
For those who don't remember me
Well let me introduce you to my style
I try to keep a jumble in the lyrics
never mumble
When the music's makin' people tongue-tied
You want a new song
Like a new religion
Music for the television
I can't do the long division
Someone do the math
For the people write me off like I'm a one-hit wonder
Gotta find another way to keep from goin' under
Pull out the stops,
Got your attention
I guess it's time again for me to mention
The wordplay
Ha La La La La
L-listen closer to the words I lay
Ha La La La La
It's all about the wordplay
Ha La La La love
The wonderful thing it does
Because, because
I am the wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa-la-la's
Yeah The Mr. A to Z
They say I'm all about the wordplay
I built a bridge across the stream of consciousness
That always seems to be a flowin'
But I don't know which way my brain is goin'
Oh the rhymin' and the timin'
Keeps the melodies inside of me
And they're climbin'
'Till I'm running out of air
Are you prepared to take a dive into the deep end of my head
Are you listening to a single word I've said?
Ha La La La La
Listen closer to the words I say
Ha La La La La
I'm Stickin' to the wordplay
Ha La La La Love
The wonderful thing it does
Because, because
I am the wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa-la-la's
Yeah the Mr. A to Z
They say I'm all about the wordplay
Ha La La La La
I'm all about the wordplay
Ha La La La La
I'm stickin' with the wordplay
Ha La La La Love
I love the wonderful thing it does
Because, because
The ooh's and ah's and fa-la-la's are back in love
For the Mr. A to Z they say
is all about the wordplay
