Jason Mraz can actually sing

Post by czech »

I heard him do a live version of that horrible song (the remedy) on a local radio station, and it sounded awesome!
The man sounds great when he doesn't have 10 dickheads from a label telling him what to do. :wink:

Thats what I've been peddling all along. Shitty in the studio, great live.

:shock: so totally missing out..

mraz is all right, though. good voice. decent guitar skills. if he didn't have the voice i don't think he'd be half as good as good. :)

Mraz's voice is amazing. I don't really care about his guitar skills because what he does sounds excellent...he even said he considers himself more of a singer anyway.

I take every gif I watch (which is A LOT) with a humongous grain of salt. But I don't let that grain of salt get into my eye and blind me to whatever truth can be found in what I'm watching. He is not any worse than any other poster here, and the people who claim he is just don't know what they're talking about. The demonization has gotten ridiculously out of hand.

Anyone with even a slight bit of interest should download 1-15-03 from etree. Awesome recording and great setlist. It took me a little while to warm up to his style but now I dig it. He is just a power-house when it comes to singing.

0% Interest is one of his best songs. Great stuff. His studio stuff is good, but Live is where it all is.
