No offense Rob, but get over it, it was one Bright Eyes song. You can't hate him forever.

The song Mraz hates is "The Remedy (I Don't Worry)," which he wrote when the label sent him on co-writing sessions with songwriters that took him from Nashville to London. It's a poppy, radio-friendly tune that's perfect for MTV and Star radio stations.

"It was the first co-write I had done. I took a really special song in and they kind of chalked up this chorus," he remembers. "But the label promised the song would get me on (MTV's) 'Cribs,' so, hey."

I like Jason Mraz.. My favorite songs are Who Needs Shelter and.. the last one.. Some of his songs are corny, though.. like the lyrics in the second song. And I hate the Waiting for My Rocket To Come song..
I bought the CD at Virgin Records when I was in Chicago.. but I didn't know about the sale and I don't think it was going on! I bought 2 CDs and didn't get a third one free. :neutral:

Yeah, I heard Al say good things about him and I saw the cd on sale for $0.79, so I couldn't pass it up. It was a damn good buy too.

That's why I don't listen to the radio. They never play anything good, and when they finally do, they kill it.. :mad:
