专辑介绍
阔别近三年，年轻帅气的唱作人Jason Mraz发行了新专辑《We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things》，在Billboard 200专辑榜中上榜第一周，《We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things》获得了本周季军，首周销量为7万3千张。《We Sing...》是Jason Mraz迄今为止打榜成绩最好的一张专辑，2005年，Jason Mraz的专辑《Mr. A-Z》在Billboard 200专辑榜中名列第五名。
与上一张大受欢迎的《Mr. A-Z》相比，这张《We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things》整体的曲风更为丰富，相比他木琴民谣化为主的以往的作品，《We Sing...》融入了更多R&B/Neo-Soul的音乐元素。与另一位当红唱作人Jack Johnson相比，Jason Mraz的音乐显得更为时尚。相比已经大红大紫的Jack Johnson，Jason Mraz的发展空间明显更大。以往的Jason Mraz主要以出色的现场表演而闻名，而如今的他也可以交出一整张出色的专辑了。无论是首支打榜单曲《I'm Yours》、《Butterfly》还是与新人Colbie Caillat合唱的《Lucky》都是非常适合传唱的热门单曲。
总的来说，《We Sing...》是一张轻松愉快的专辑，是Jason Mraz三张录音室专辑中最出色的一张。
Atlantic recording artist Jason Mraz has disclosed early details of his enormously anticipated new album, "We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things." The collection – Mraz's first set of all-new material in nearly three years – will arrive in stores and at online retailers on May 20th.
The San Diego-based troubadour's third studio release, "We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things." was produced by Martin Terefe, known for his work with KT Tunstall, Ron Sexsmith, and James Morrison. The album sees Mraz continuing to tread his own distinctive artistic path, melding a variegated musical tapestry with passionate, personal lyricism. Among the highlights are collaborations with British tunesmith James Morrison and singer/songwriter Colbie Caillat. "I'm Yours," the album's first single, was chosen due to the undeniable fan response to the song. A demo version of "I'm Yours" originally appeared on a limited release bonus EP Mraz put out with his last album. Today the song is an online sensation, with over 300 user-generated videos from more than 25 different countries now appearing on YouTube.
Always an active online presence, Mraz has kept his loyal fanbase abreast of his recent activities via a series of video blogs, dubbed "Crazy Man's Ju-Ju." The clips – along with a variety of other travel adventures, live performances, and studio sessions – can be accessed at "Jason Mraz TV," the Official Jason Mraz YouTube channel, located at www.youtube.com/user/OfficialJasonMraz.
"We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things." will be heralded by a trio of individual EPs: "We Sing," due March 18th; "We Dance," out April 15th; and "We Steal Things," which will be available as a digital bundle with purchase of the album on iTunes, and as part of a bundle when purchased via JasonMraz.com or AtlanticRecords.com. The EPs will feature unique versions of various album tracks recorded during special intimate sessions.
A compelling and inventive live performer, Jason will celebrate the new album with a coast-to-coast North American concert tour, slated to kick off sometime this spring. Full details will be announced in the coming weeks. In the meantime, Mraz will perform Feb. 28 at iTunes Live: London Sessions in the UK. Fans can win tickets at

Mraz will then spend March on the road beginning at the Uken Festival in Bergen, Norway on March 8, and then continuing to Australia and Asia, including a major concert appearance in Seoul, Korea on March 28th.
"We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things." follows Mraz's two previous studio releases: 2002's RIAA platinum-certified breakthrough, Waiting For My Rocket To Come, and 2005's "Mr. A-Z," which debuted at #5 on the Billboard 200, with career-best first week sales exceeding 80,000. Mraz has also released a series of concert recordings, including 2004's Tonight, Not Again: Jason Mraz Live At The Eagles Ballroom and 2006's digital-only release, "Selections For Friends."
