Absolutely Zero [Official Music Video] | Jason Mraz 

I'm glad Jason is still weird and random like he was all those years ago.

Jason: "hey guys, you know what would be a great idea?" PR guy: "what?" Jason: "let's release that 7 minute long music video for a song from an album made 17 years ago. With cats and shit." PR guy: "why?" Jason: "Cuz it has cats and shit. That's why. Cats are HUGE nowadays." PR guy: "I mean yeah it's a great song but why didn't you release it-" Jason: 🎶"Cats are great, cats are cute..."

LYRICS You. You were a friend. You were a friend of mine I let you spend the night You see it was my fault. Of course it was mine. I'm too hard at work. Have you ever heard of anything so absurd ever in your life. I'm sorry for wasting your time. See who am I to say this situation isn't great? When it's my job to make the most of it Of course I didn't know that it would happen to me. Not that easy. Hey what's that you say? You're not blaming me for anything well that's great But I don't break that easy. Does it fade away? So that's why I'm, I'm apologizing now for telling you I thought that we could make it I just don't get enough to believe that we've both changed. See who am I to say this situation isn't great? It's my time to make the most of it Of course I didn't know that it would happen to me. Not that easy. If all along the fault is up for grabs why can't you have it If it's for sale what is your offer, I'll sell it for no less than what I bought it for Pay no more than absolutely zero. Well neither one of us deserves the blame because opportunities moved us away And it's not an easy thing to learn to play a game that's made for two that's you and me The rules remain a mystery. See it can be easy. See who am I to say this situation isn't great? It's our time to make the most of it How could we ever know that this would happen to me, not that easy, no When all along the fault is up for grabs and there you have it If it's for sale what is your offer, I'll sell it for no less than what I bought it for Pay no more than absolutely zero.

... From Zero to hero.

I really hope Kelly someday sees how much of an impact her sophomore year film studies project has had on the Mraz audience

Can’t wait for this new album “waiting for my rocket to come” to go out!

One of the greatest songs ever composed by Jason. Thanks for sharing this ❤❤❤❤

Imagine being one of the people in this video and having your friend tell you you're in the new Jason Mraz music video. "That's a random April Fool's joke lol" "No, really..."

Fantastic...this is actually the song that got me hooked on Mraz during a bad breakup yearsssss ago, now I'm seeing my 12th show in August! Thank God for that breakup !

Still the best, I haven't skipped any of his songs ever in my playlists

How did I JUST see this!?! I'm dying, what a riot.... And here I thought he was chillin and pickin avocados ... Could they grant a Grammy for latest video to a song?

I heard this song today for the first time, and it hit me really strong…what a great song!!!

Your music always make me fell Good... Lovely....

Yes. My 2003 vibes all over again

Man only you can make such a depressing song funny haha

A masterpiece! This song got me though the worst days of my life a few years back. It somehow gave me the assurance that its ok for a man to cry, feel down and get back up again. It now lives rent-free in my head and the phones i have bought. Sadly though, only a few are familiar with this song.

you are the best man, your music helps me to keep it toghether. Greetings from the most fcked up country ever (Venezuela)

2003 was a good year obvi. I’ll make your vid for Rand McNalley:)

What a throwback! One of the greatest, and possibly overlooked, albums Mraz ever put out (in my humble opinion) is his Tonight, Not Again - Live From The Eagles Ballroom release. That album, after seeing Jason open up for Alanis Morrisette in her 2005 Jagged Little Pill Acoustic tour, was what originally got me hooked on Mraz. That Live album is absolutely amazing, and there is an awesome version of Absolutely Zero on it. If anyone doesn't have it, you should immediately buy it. His Beautiful Mess - Live on Earth album is also ridiculous. Of course, my favorite Mraz album is always which ever one I happen to be listening to at the moment. :)

It was soo damn classic movie! Whoa!! *PS : You're still my biggest inspirational and hilarious singer songwriter like FOREVAH!

Holy!!! Yesss

reading the comments i noticed that not a single one has seen the video ´til the end. I must say: it is truly epic.

Well that threw me for a loop. How nostalgic and mraz-y

You did not change anything, Jason. 😅

Gotta love Mr. A-Z !!! :D

This was ridiculous and wonderful. LOL!

Great job Jason! You took your saddest, and most beautiful song (in my opinion) and made it the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. Can't even be mad at that. Happy April Fools!

Been your fan since dozen year ago, you didn't SEEM change that much 😂😭❤️ and this song, can't be more relatable rn. Thank you for still creating masterpiece!

one of my favorite songs from Jason! his acting in this MV's so funny, hehe...

This is great! Oh to get a call from you randomly 15 years later...time before our mobile numbers traveled with us from service to service!!!

5:10 the girl's hand suddenly got hairy and very manly lol

Love you man, happy Easter and April Fools ;)

I LOVE YOU JASON ❤️❤️❤️🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

Ven a Monterrey Mexico !!! Te Amo Jason

NO ME DUELE, ME QUEMA ME LASTIMA!!!

The best version is off of the Tonight Not Again live album. Such an incredible song!

This is the best thing I’ve ever seen in my life.

나의 최애곡 평생 들을 노래

What an amazing gift XD Big girl did not seem amused. Love the editing. Happy Easterly fools day to you and wifey and the whole team! P.s I just discovered you guys sell chocolate... That is too sweeeet.

Hope you'll visit Philippines again.

Tenho um sério problema, sou viciada em "Jason Mraz" difícil escutar outro cantor, é Ele, sempre Ele... AMO...

😍😍😍😍😍😍 when are new songs like. love is still the answer releasing ?

Gold! It's like one of those generic karaoke music videos

Even by 2003 standards this video still sucks. But the song is classic and timeless.

too many times today have I seen someone make a questionable announcement and just thought "hmm that seems like a weird decision but okay sure" before eventually noticing the date

i hate you for making me sad jason..time flies

anyone know where I can get that hat he had at the beginning of the video?

I LOVE YOU JASON, YOU ARE THE BEST, DUDE.

Post break up after a week damn this is the first time I'm crying

One of my fave songs. Pure genius.

I love the fact that everybody thinks the cat and Jason scenes are from back then

Sad and laugh at the same time

Oooh my favorite! Hahaha u got her permission like that? Thats so dope!

Ok, Tell me: Isn't he the best??? Jason is my favorite. ❤

why is the VHS player in the fridge? HAHAH

Just as sexy as ever, too. (@katkarizma)

What a weird weird but interesting video

this song is too dark for nowaday jason mraz

I love you Jason🌷💕

This video is HIIILLLAAARRRIOOUUSSS!!!! So much moping around, cats and a girl with weird hands and feet haha

kinda reminds me of no surprises

Mraz!! I wanted to get all nostalgic and ugly cry over failed relationships from my past while listening to this song as per my usual habits...then you go and make this amazingly funny and awkward video. How am I supposed to tap into my feels? The only tears I could muster were the ones running down my legs because of the cat and the bad acting. How can you not laugh until you pee your pants? Geesh...now don't go messing up my other go-to depressing song, "Plane" or I'll will hold all the cats hostage!! All of them on your entire Avocado farm!

He sounds like Beirut in this song

I really love this person ! forever.

ahahahahahaha so sad, my Jason! I loved the video :D :D I cannot stop laughing but at the same time I cry: P ahmmm and what's up with Big Girl? I didn't understand! was sad too? hahaha well, I like this song, really cute :) kisses from Venezuela, love and I want hear more :*

That cat has seen some shit.....

Hear curz 'Into the dark' s1-e9// This music is so brill (and video!)! Love it, hello from Stockholm.

Ahh, this is why we love you, Mr A-Z

Stiil no one noticed the fart.

Why do I still love you, MrAZ?

I LOVE YOU JASON! Good vibes from the galápagos islands ✌🍃🐢 🇪🇨🇪🇨🇪🇨🇪🇨 ❤❤

HAHAHA I've always loved the song but dude this video totally ruined it for me hahaha 6:09 to 6:15 is my favorite part hahahahaha

Hey Jason I'm tocas nephew hopefully you get to see this comment have you ever come to Alabama I'm here with my mom gigi

This reminds me of rilo Kiley. Someone made "breaking up" and they wanted to make a video of it, but these kids made an epic video of it, and they decided that would be the real video!

Jason is a better lyricists than 85% of rappers these days.. drop some more dynamo of violation type shit dawg!

Man I love this song so much!

Oh what an underrated song! This deserves so much accolade than many other songs today.

Cuando no entendiste muy bien el principio pero aun así disfrutas la música. :P Gracias a los comentarios si pude jajaja
