When you're writing a song and there are five people invested in it, it's easy for one person to say, 'Oh, this song is about this and that', and everyone has to hear the idea and see if they can do better.

More quotes by Jason Mraz
We have the ability to manifest our thoughts: to actually say something and express what our feelings are. That, then, transforms the world and puts something into action.
Jason Mraz
I'm most grateful for my health. It's taken me a long time to get where I am, to feel as strong as I do in my mind and in my body. It's through that that I'm able to be present in all my relationships and not get overwhelmed by what could seem like a big task, going all around the world constantly.
Jason Mraz
I listened to the radio, so I was influenced by everyone from Michael Jackson to Milli Vanilli. But thankfully my dad had a collection of Cat Stevens albums while my mom was listening to jazz.
Jason Mraz
If you are what you eat, in my case, I'd be sweet so come and get some.
Jason Mraz
It’s strange how dreams get under your skin and give your heart a test for what’s real and what’s imaginary.
Jason Mraz
Love is the only thing that makes the world spin around, I think. It's weird. We have to call it love, because we have to call it something, but it's not a word. It's an energy. It's an act. It's an action. It's a natural thing.
Jason Mraz
I try not to write songs. I would rather emote them, and I found myself going back to my room every night while on my trip, just pouring out new songs and new stories about what I was seeing, what I was feeling.
Jason Mraz
The more I travel around the world, the more I see people want the same thing - to be happy. We wouldn't be in a monetary system if we didn't have to work, so if my music can contribute to happiness, then that's my main responsibility.
Jason Mraz
I would enjoy doing what cats do: singing, sleeping, and licking my nuts.
Jason Mraz
I'm not always a positive person. I wake up grumpy, I read the newspaper and I get furious that the world is still at war.
Jason Mraz
I really want to be able to keep going and I realize that in some aspects I've got to treat myself like an athlete.
Jason Mraz
Free downloads is something that I like to do its just not as publicised and it is the future of music.
Jason Mraz
To create an album of 12 songs, I've got to write about 80 songs. Half of those are totally weird and rubbish.
Jason Mraz
I had always been singing, all of my life, but it wasn't until I got out of high school and was on my own that I didn't have any accompaniment.
Jason Mraz
I meet people every single day who have heard the music and incorporated it into their lives. I feel like I have a tribe all around the world.
Jason Mraz
Being a human means waking up in this world, where we all have to work and slog to put food on the table.
Jason Mraz
Because I trust in the ever-changing climate of the heart. (At least, today I feel that way.) I think it is necessary to have many experiences for the sake of feeling something for the sake of being challenged, and for the sake of being expressive, to offer something to someone else, to learn what we are capable of.
Jason Mraz
Some people they simply just want to hear you. And others actually have things they want to share and talk with you about. So it's important for me to be as strong as I can when I leave home so I can hold space for all of it.
Jason Mraz
Quite simply I've distilled my mission down to the essence. The only thing I'm really here to do is shine light on people's lives through music, through laughter and to simply enjoy being with people.
Jason Mraz
When I sit down to write a song, I really want the message of healing to thrive and transcend all ages.
