Jason Mraz

Okay, so this guy inspired me to come back and work on this site again. Okay, this and Yahoo Music Unlimited.

First of all, I started using Yahoo Music Unlimited a few weeks ago on my old computer. At first I thought it sucked even though you could download whatever you wanted for $5 a month (.79 cents to burn the songs though). The previews were slow and the interface was running problematically on an IE Engine. But I stuck with it and once I got my new computer, everything was faster. It was great. So now I am totally addicted to it.

Anyhow, one of the discoveries I made using the YMU was Jason Mraz. Some great stuff that made me wonder, "Why the Hell haven't I heard any of this stuff before?" I think I'd heard his name somewhere, but figured he was some college-kid fad artist.

Not the case. I am still deciding which are my favorite songs, but so far I really like The Remedy, You and I Both, Song for a Friend, and a cover he did of Dylan's A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall (even though it's like 4 minutes too long, it's great relaxation music).

So I will add to my Three Listens playlist shortly but I really dig all of it so far, especially since he snagged me with You and I Both in half a song.
