im not a fan of his music, but i definitely respect his talent. he has a superb voice and very solid guitar skills. the interesting thing about his writing is that he uses some extended type chords that aren't typical to pop music, so thats cool too.

Just bought two EPs from iTMS (been a long time listener) and I LOVE the song I'm Yours.

He has the best male voice in music right now. His guitar playing is good enough to get by and I like some of his songs. His first album was a lot stronger than his second. He can get wordy, but he has a very unique vocabulary when it comes to song writing and he almost raps some of his songs. He's good.

Mraz's strenght is his voice, he's a trained singer (musical theater). His guitar playing isn't that difficult but he's got his own little thing going on. His earlier works are freakin' awesome however the new disc was too syrupy and too "wordy" but that's the guy's style. Overall I enjoy his music and respsect his range and power vocally and his gf is pretty darn hawt and talented too ;)

I like him and have been to a few shows (but missed the live recording at the Eagles Ballroom). He has an amazing voice live. I was really suprised the first time I heard him live. I was terribly disappointed by his last album, though. It just seemed somewhat forced to me. But all this talk made me pop in one of his CDs. I haven't listened to him in a while.
