The whole album was the soundtrack to my life at a time where I was in a very sad and toxic place. I was in a place I thought I would never get out of. I had accepted in my mind I would have to end my life or just find little things to enjoy and absorb them. Like make the best of my horrible life in any way I could. And this album was one of them. I’d go to work and listen to it almost every day on my headphones and then I’d go home and just try to get through the abuse until I got to the next day. I was able to get out of that place eventually and break free. But this album has a strange pull on my heart. I love it so much but I get this melancholy happy sadness when I hear any of the tracks. I’m in a beautiful happy and healthy place in my life and I’ll never really get over what happened to me then but songs like this help me realise that I came so far in the last 15 years. And what’s more I did it under my own steam and I’m still here now. We sing we dance we steal things will always be the most special piece of art that I’ll ever have had in my life. I could sit and tell so many stories about how songs on it fit into my life at that time but I’d be here all day. Love Jason so much. Thankful for his music

Jason Mraz at his best--acoustic and not over-produced.

The horns are the best part of this song my opinion. They sound so good and the lines they play are insane.

Holy shit it's been 15 years?? This song still SLAPS even though I aged 😂

This is why Jason Mraz is a brilliant musician! Always been a fan and still I am to day.

This song is a huge display of talent and swing. Singing it is so incredibly hard, and not grooving to it is absolutely impossible.

This album is a masterpiece and will be remembered forever.

1:48 Bro I am actually offended that the mixer muted the scat. It's one of the most awesome parts of the song.

The way all the musicians are dancing and moving to its rhythm. Amazing song!

I live in Eritrea. I first heard of Jason Mraz when a relative of mine who lives in the US sent me his old apple Mp3 player more 11 years ago. It had Jason's first two albums. And my life changed from the moment I heard the first song. He is the perfect embodiment of a true musician melodically, lyrically and spritually. Keep making those soul healing musics Mr. A-Z. Much Love from Africa !

This album has some of the best lyrics, Melodie’s, vibes it shows insane range. I have “hold your own, know your name, go your own way” tattooed on my arm. Also inspired me to start writing I’m in a group called nxtime and do it full time now. Thanks Jason 💗🙏

*This is the song that made me listen to all your songs and made me listen to them almost everyday!*

One of the best albums of all time. Every song from it is just awesome.

I had no idea it was the anniversary! Happy anniversary! This is one of my favorite songs of yours. You are such a talented poet and a musician 🎶🎸💃

This is one of my top favourites..love it. 👌love it when you scat 👍 so glad you kept it in the song, that's what makes it. 😊👍

This songggg!!!! I always love the way he performed this song soooo effortlessly. Really enjoyed listening it for the first time when I was in Junior High School, I screamed and listened to it over and over again. This song really never gets old! I even memorized most of the lyrics in this album and makes me love learning English (I’m Indonesian btw) while listening to more Jazz, Pop, Funk songs.

I fucking love this song and everywhere I go, I show people this song, and immediately, they starts loving this masterpiece too. Love from Uberlândia/Brazil

Love ❤️ love ❤️ love 🥰 yeah grooveline horns ❣️❣️

One of my favorite songs of all time

Butterfly is obviously Jason Mraz's best song

my brothers and sisters jam to this song when we were kids and until now 💃💃🥰🥰👏👏👏👏

One of my fave songs!

I LOVE THESE VIDEOOOOOS! Keep them coming Mr. A-Z :)

Love the backstory, look fwd to hearing more!

Love this song!

One of my absolute favorites ❤ please please please Jason, do a show in Brazil 🇧🇷🙏🏻

Butterfly is one of my fave songs!

Thanks for sharing. Love the story telling & mini demo. Your voice is so beautiful in this song. Love the scat ❤ my favorite❣️❣️

I discovered Jason when I was a junior in high school. Can’t believe it’s been so long ❤

This is one of my Favorite Songs from Jason Mraz! Omg! I had to replay the song a few times to really listen to the song. Ugh, I can replay this song over and over again!

Probably my favorite of my favorites!!!❤❤❤ Thank you!

This song brings me Joy ❤️💖💕✨️🦋

the voice's still the same. that's what natural talent is all about

Just the vibe I like

I love "I Won't Give Up"! I tried searching up earlier because I remembered it when I heard it as a kid and I searched up Bruno Mars songs and couldn't find it, but after remembering the lyrics I just searched it up and I found the song! I didn't know it was made by you but the fast paced part really stuck in my brain XD Keep up the good work!

Yeah, the live in Chicago is my favorite version. That was the best concert I have ever seen hands down. I loved your acoustic concert in Mobile too. I'm thinking it was Mobile and not New Orleans. Ha! Brain fog! I cry like a crazy Elvis fan when I see you 😂😂

미쳐버리겠다 내 최애곡을 리뷰하고 있네 노래해주고있네 와 미쳤다 진짜 감사합니다 자손 미래지 형님

This makes me so happy!!! I ADORE THIS SONG!

This song is so underrated! It's got everything!

It was very good, congratulations on the production.

That mixer/editor that muted the scatting part has no taste, it was the best part of the song! This song was the single reason I binge listened to all of your songs.

I love this song. Thank you, Jason & team! Thank you Tiny dancer 🎉❤✨🌸🦋

please come to Buenos Aires i love you so much

Its so cool to know about the creation of your favourite songs first-hand! Please, keep on, it's a really nice format.

I loved this video, the music, the story, the construction of one of the best jams I've ever enjoyed on repeat over and over. Thanks Jayson for such a hit ❤ thanks the dancer that inspired the creation of this masterpiece! #PureArt #WSWDWST

My beloved singer, I loved the lyrics. I wish my loved one had sent it to me. Quem eu amo já tem 8 anos. Só gosto das suas músicas

Música linda!

I remember the first tour you did with the horns, so 🔥🦋 West Beach SB!

Happy 15th anniversary!!!!! Greatings from the other side of the world from Buenos Aires Argentina 😊

Terimakasih sudah menemani 15 tahun ku dengan semua lagu di dalam album ini..

I loooove this song! ❤

This is my eternal favorite ❤️ ❤

fire that mixer for thinking even for a second the scat didn't belong... holy f

I turned my Brit English Professor on to you circa 05 and he played this song at a kids’ edu summer camp and I died!!! I don’t think he really realized what the song was about. But it’s why I love, love, love you bc you’re so clever!!!

Love these vids of MrA-Z sharing the story behind his masterpieces 😍 Hope you do a world tour in the next years🥹🙏🏼 Come to Asia again please.

Encantada com cada relato🇧🇷💚🦋

Fav song

This song is such a banger

❤❤❤ 🦋 ❤❤❤❤

Perfect ❤

GORGEOUS! Even though I was kinda hoping this was Jason's rendition of Mariah Carey's classic ballad. 💕😎

I saw you perform twice with the horn section. Once when you opened for Dave Matthews Band and then later that year with Colbie Caillat. SO SO Good!

I had to re-watch the video... I saw Mai Bloomfield and everything went quiet...

what a great song

Jason. Tomorrow night is my singing competition grand final and im gonna sing this epic song : Butterfly

❤

This is it ,the real Jason mraz that we miss

Show

mon dieu comme j'aime ta voix 😍

I hope that you can come to Philippines again but with the band from your Hongkong concert last 2016 that is? I cant remember the year but band was sooo great with the young woman doing second voices for you

Muy bonito performance, pero nada superara al que tuvo en el Highline Ballroom en NYC, ahí hubo magia

This is one of my favorite songs on that album. Not my #1, but definitely top 5. The lyrical sex going on is incredible. It's like Clockwatching but 10 steps up 🥰

super idol jason hope meet you in person❤️❤️❤️

Grooveline Horns kill it on this song. My favourite.

I love you brother !

❤️❤️

Jason, it's Sean from Oceanside. Many of my customers have asked me to make a (2024)calendar of Oceanside with my photos on it. I'd like you to have it. Let me know if I can drop off or you can stop by my shop on Mission Ave and El Camino Real.

absolutely right on the horns. The song is great, but the horns set this track off hard

🥰🥰🥰

Nice

Thank you brother!!🧑‍🚒🍷🎶❤
