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

Jason Mraz is a terrible musician who thinks that he is talented enought to improvise and vamp through half his songs. It's annoying. He comes off like a frat boy, arrogant and entitled.
Playful and Proud October 8, 2008
Daniel Murphy (Victoria, Australia)
To put into words the pure talent of Jason Mraz is like trying to describe the joy of a sunny afternoon. His musical ability is undisputed and his release We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things is a shining beacon of just how talented the man is. With effortless grace, he trapezes through musical genres like they're all second nature and doesn't blink at change in paces.
With sounds sometimes reminiscent of John Mayer and Michael Buble, the album has sensitivity and smarts that are uncommon in many releases today. The use of acoustic guitar does not go unnoticed and adds to the pure beauty of the music which is contrary to the over-produced and synthesised releases which have been hyped up lately. His music has an honesty that is not about saving the world in a couple of minutes, nor is it the wailings of someone wanting their body touched.
Mraz moves through his album with maturity and fearless ability. Stunning collaborations with Colbi Cailat on Lucky and James Morrison on Details In The Fabric are surprise gems that feature on the album. Then there is the superb track Only Human which would be right at home on Ministry Of Sound: Chillout Sessions. The other highlight track on the album is The Dynamo Of Volition which is somewhat reminisce of Australia's own John Butler Trio mixed with Jack Johnson.
Sadly, the album probably won't pick up much air play on the radio as it's not the commercial bubble gum pop that wails across the air waves these days. The album is solid listening with no disappointments in any of the twelve tracks. His work is clean and friendly and very relaxing. To try and compare him with other artists is a discredit to his own natural talent because he really stands in the field on his own as a versatile artist who can produce fantastic listening that can't be ignored.
Euphoric October 1, 2008
