Jason Mraz’s “I’m Yours” is the folk rocker’s latest hit single. Mraz returns to his old standby–rhymes. This time,however,cliches are his weapon of choice. “I’m Yours” is a pseudo-’60s Summer of Love song,without the psychedelia and the originality. It’s a disappointment. The riffs from “The Remedy” are gone. The melody&instrumentation are forgettable. They’re musical folk rock leftovers,reheated slightly. It’s too bad,since Jason Mraz started out original and interesting. Maybe he will find his spark. For now, the thrill is gone. His “I’m Yours” isn’t mine,thank goodness.

I absolutely LOVE MRAZ. I have since the very beginning of his musical journey on the airwaves. He’s amazing, and not just because he has a great voice, a kool name, nice beats, and an appreciation for his musical elders, but because he is just SO UNIQUE. This guy is awesome, he grabs you and keeps up the folky funky rythym and ryhme until the end. I absolutely have worn out my Waiting For My Rocket To Come CD, so it’s about time for this new one!
Mraz keep on funking, and if anyone is a hater it’s just cuz they don’t get it. Think outside the box, forget aout the ‘rules’ of the pathetic culture, it’s about living and loving, and music is a big part of that.
I love the way this album plays out. Unlike a lot of songs you have to listen to Jason’s words to truly appreciate how talented he is. I love to listen to his songs because he includes words that aren’t typically in a song and he challenges your mind with the multiple meanings. Love it, what else can I say. Good job !

I have no idea where I first heard this song. I do know that it’s been stuck in my head ever since (in a positive way). This is a great song.

“I’m Yours” has long been a favorite song of mine from Jason Mraz, a fabulous musical artist, ever since I first heard him sing it in concert in 2005. It has gotten a lot of recognition on the internet and has been a favorite with many others, and now it is finally going to be a single.
This recording is a good one, including the trademarks of a Mraz song that endears his music to his devoted fans. It also has a lot of potential to catch the attention of those who aren’t so familiar with him yet.
A great song to listen to at any time, and a surefire way to cheer up if you’re feeling down.
