Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Jason Mraz’s first set of all-new material in nearly three years, WE SING. WE DANCE. WE STEAL THINGS. 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 hundreds of usergenerated videos from more than 25 different countries now appearing on YouTube. Jason will be hitting the road this April on the 'Music, Magic & Make Peace Tour'.
Amazon.co.uk:
Since 2002’s jaunty Waiting for My Rocket to Come, Jason Mraz has developed into a more mature, well-rounded pop artist. We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things is his most multi-dimensional work yet, covering everything from groove-based material to ballads. While tracks such as 'Make It Mine' and 'Butterfly' refer back to the catchy style of previous albums, there are many other styles and textures on display here. His duet with Colbie Caillat, 'Lucky,' for example, explores his folkish, acoustic side, as does the compelling 'Details in the Fabric,' both of which are excellent songs. Mraz gets a little more experimental on 'Coyotes,' which toys with a clubby electronica and strangely seems to work, and on 'The Dynamo of Volition' for which he employs a hectic, rapping-style of vocal over a typically contagious rhythm. His ballads, such as 'Love For A Child', 'If It Kills Me' and 'Beautiful Mess' (these last two saved for the end) show a more sensitive side and even when his lyrics are occasionally clumsy, Mraz manages to make his point in an emotive way. Easy-going and sunny, but with laudable elements of depth and innovation, this is Mraz at his best so far.--Danny McKenna

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - great tunes
The whole family loves this CD. It has quite the range of musical styles and is fun to listen to over and over.
Rating:  - Jason Mraz is awful
Jason Mraz is a terrible musician who thinks that he is talented enought to improvise and vamp through half his songs. It's annoying. He comes off like a frat boy, arrogant and entitled.
Rating: - Playful and Proud
To put into words the pure talent of Jason Mraz is like trying to describe the joy of a sunny afternoon. His musical ability is undisputed and his release We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things is a shining beacon of just how talented the man is. With effortless grace, he trapezes through musical genres like they're all second nature and doesn't blink at change in paces.
With sounds sometimes reminiscent of John Mayer and Michael Buble, the album has sensitivity and smarts that are uncommon ... Read More
