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

 Pleasantly Surprised July 31, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Not really sure why I bought this album in particular. I already had the new Coldplay CD in my cart and wanted to add another CD just to try something new and also to qualify for the free shipping. I was expecting to love the coldplay CD and wasn't expecting much out of Jason Mraz. It turned out to be the exact opposite!
With that said, I must say I am happily surprised by Jason Mraz's album. This isn't really my "type of music" to begin with, but Jason Mraz really offers something musically satisfying. I haven't heard anything that sounds like this prior to listening to this album.
Good job Jason!
 disappointing July 30, 2008

I was so excited to hear Jasons new CD! I have been a die hard fan for years! Seen him in concert 3 times! I love his sound and clever lyrics....but this CD does not live up to his others! I think he tried too hard or something. The Jason Mraz I fell in love with is not present in this CD. I am so bummed! Just wanted to warn you....It's very disappointing!
 His best work yet! July 28, 2008

I absolutely love this album! It is by far his best work yet! I would definately suggest buying this album. It is definately a departure from his Wordplay album, but it is a good one.
 With a band behind him, his magic disappears July 23, 2008

I had high hopes for this album after hearing "I'm yours" - which is a beautiful, simple song that is very reminiscent of his early work. After listening to the whole album, I found myself extremely disappointed.
It seems like ever since Mr. A to Z, Jason is making music for someone other than himself, and that he has gotten a tremendous amount of pressure to 'refine' his sound. This just means that he has lost the creative freedom that made his music free and flowing, full of entertaining lyrics and beautiful raw melodies (Check out his very first CD, live at Java Joe's). He has been crapping out music ever since his first official album 'Waiting for my Rocket' which was a wonderful blend of his personality and his producer's demands.
I think if he dropped a few band members, or heck, if he even remixed his new music in order to drop out some trumpets and percussion and background hoo-ha, then it might almost reach the simple beauty of what he used to make.
I still have faith in Jason that he will eventually realize that being a sell-out isn't worth it.
Wow, Wow, and Wow. July 22, 2008

Again he delivers in his amazing way. I fell in love with it right away, to the point that it has not left the cd player in my car. I could listen to it all day long!
