Editorial Review: Album Description: His debut album is packed with witty, wordy, smart, funky & astonishingly catchy pop songs that do right by the best singer-songwriter traditions of Elektra. 2002. Amazon.com: Virginia exile Jason Mraz grew up listening to Dave Matthews and Agents of Good Roots, local heroes whose frat-friendly influences are much in evidence on his major-label debut. Producer John Alagia (Dave Matthews Band, John Mayer) augments Mraz's SoCal cohorts with Agents' rhythm section, dramatically expanding and polishing songs like "Curbside Prophet" and "You and I Both," which previously appeared in looser, less developed versions on Mraz's self-released live recordings. But fans from the singer-songwriter's coffeehouse years need not despair. Mraz's witty lyrics and easygoing folk-blues stylings (think Jack Johnson on Prozac) are still very much in evidence. He's also in fine voice and, on two standout tracks--"Who Needs Shelter" and "Absolutely Zero"--rivals Neil Finn in his ability to invoke the spirit of Paul McCartney. Waiting for My Rocket to Come showcases an artist who, while still finding his own direction, is clearly off to a great start. --Bill Forman Customer Reviews

 Rating:  - A Message to JasonThe one time my friend and I caught his live show, we were put through hours or boring chat from Mr. Mraz. People come to hear you sing Jason, not jabber on muchadoaboutnothing. I'm not sure if he was drunk, or other, but his sets were boring and it made me realize so is his music. Good voice, but learn to take it more seriously. Rating:  - great album sophomore album a bit betterthis album is great I like it so much ! REMEDY is awesome! Rating: - Very, very good debut!I am very surprised that Jason Mraz isn't more popular than he is. With songs like "The Remedy" and "You and I Both" which are both great, you'd think he'd be right up there with John Mayer (I actually like Jason a lot more than John Mayer). He should have won best new artist at least at the Grammys, but he didn't even get nominated. My other favs. from this album include "On Love, In Sadness" and "Curbside Prophet" This is one of the best male singers to come around in a long time. I recommend Waiting For My Rocket To Come; Mr. A-Z and any other album he comes out with. He is GREAT! :) Rating: - Optomisum in its best formI love this man. When I listen to it, it makes me happy. Thats the best way that I can put it. Also I think his lyrics are unique and relatiable. Rating: - This CD is uplifting in a way!!I like Jason Mraz's music and his first one(this one) sounds too great. I put him in the same camp as John Mayer, Maroon 5, Gavin DeGraw, Train, and Rob Thomas. He uses real instruments throughout every song and his lyrics are very funny. This is also a laid back and kind of humorous album. This one is not to be slept on. I can call it The WB music. |
