Mraz first came to prominence on the San Diego coffee house scene in 2000. At one of these coffee houses, Mraz met
percussionist Toca Rivera and released Live at Java Joe's. He released his debut album, Waiting for My Rocket to Come, which contained the hit single "The Remedy (I Won't Worry)", in 2002, but it was not until the release of his second album, Mr. A-Z, in 2005, that Mraz achieved major commercial success. The album peaked at number five on the Billboard 200 and sold over 100,000 copies in the US. In 2008, Mraz released his third studio album, We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things. The album debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 and was a commercial success worldwide, peaking in the top ten of many international charts.
Mraz's international breakthrough came with the release of the single "I'm Yours" from the album We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things. The single peaked at number six on the Billboard Hot 100, giving Mraz his first top ten single. The song was on the Hot 100 for 76 weeks, beating the previous record of 69 weeks held by LeAnn Rimes' "How Do I Live". The song was a commercial success in the US, receiving a 5x platinum certification from the RIAA for sales of over five million. The song was successful internationally, topping the charts in New Zealand and Norway and peaking in the top ten of multiple international charts.


One of my favorite songs is Jason Mraz' Life is Wonderful. Young people might say it's old or dumb, but they'd be wrong - some things never become old. When I listen to this song I begin believing that Life is really wonderful. And just look at their unity and excellent performance!

JASON MRAZ LYRICS
"Life Is Wonderful"

 It takes a crane to build a crane
 It takes two 1_____ to make a story
 It takes an egg to make a hen
 It takes a hen to make an egg
 There is no 2_____ to what I'm saying

 It takes a thought to make a 3_____
 And it takes some words to make an action
 It takes some work to make it work
 It takes some good to make it hurt
 It takes some bad for 4_____

 La la la la la la la life is wonderful
 Ah la la la la la la life goes full circle
 Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
 Al la la la la

 It takes a night to make it 5_____
 And it takes a day to make you yawn brother
 And it takes some old to make you young
 It takes some cold to know the 6_____
 It takes the one to have the other

 And it takes no time to fall in 7_____
 But it takes you years to know what love is
 It takes some fears to make you trust
 It takes those 8_____ to make it rust
 It takes the dust to have it polished

 Ha la la la la la la life is wonderful
 Ah la la la la la la life goes full circle
 Ah la la la la la la life is so full of
 Ah la la la la la la life is so rough
 Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
 Ah la la la la la la life goes full circle
 Ah la la la la la la life is our love
 Ah la la la la la

 It takes some 9_____ to make sound
 It takes a loss before you found it
 And it takes a road to go nowhere
 It takes a toll to show you 10_____
 It takes a hole to see a mountain

 Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
 Ah la la la la la la life goes full circle
 Ha la la la la la life is wonderful
 Ha la la la la la life is meaningful
 Ha la la la la la life is wonderful
 Ha la la la la la life it is...so... wonderful
 It is so meaningful
 It is so wonderful
 It is meaningful
 It is wonderful
 It is meaningful
 It goes full circle
 Wonderful
 Meaningful
 Full circle
 Wonderful
