The hardest part of writing anything is the writing part. Ideas can be abundant. The mind has many narrators to listen to. It should be easy. But it’s the sitting down & showing up that’s difficult. Many of my lyrics are about that struggle to sit down & open up.
I’m Yours is a song about surrender; about giving my time or attention to someone or something else. In this case, I was giving myself away to a higher power for creativity & music to come thru; like saying:
Dear God,
Make me an instrument.
I’m Yours.
And by letting go & letting god, magical things happen.
I’m Yours continues to be a transformative piece of music every time I sing it. It takes me places. From that first day in 2004, to a decade of live performances on all 7 continents, the song never loses its charm.
I make-up the song’s success is due to its simple melody, its authenticity & silly dialect, & many people simultaneously feeling a need to give themselves away to something else. And/or it’s probably about the drums & overall mix & party vocals that lift us up during the last chorus. And more. But most importantly, it is successful because it made it onto the page. It got written down. Forever preserved in scribble.
This week that little happy, hippie song reached 10 million sales in the US. That’s scribbling bananas.
Thank you for listening & adopting I’m Yours. Thank you for hearing it & covering it & dancing & marrying to it.
Thanks to my @AtlanticRecords family, Bill & Patrick & my brilliant management team & my many bands & road crews who’ve helped me circumnavigate the globe to be almost everywhere the song lives.
I’m touched.
I’m grateful.
I’m Yours.
I’m not done yet.

Jason, I’m yours transformed me, and listen and chorus this song with my two boys and wife make me felt that as you said we are instruments to share joy and support. Check below The Pray of Saint Francis: Lord make me an instrument of your peace
Where there is hatred let me sow love
Where there is injury, pardon
Where there is doubt, faith
Where there is despair, hope
Where there is darkness, light
And where there is sadness, joy
O divine master grant that I may
not so much seek to be consoled as to console
to be understood as to understand
To be loved as to love
For it is in giving that we receive
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned
And it's in dying that we are born to eternal life
Amen

I’m yours was the song i was singing at the top of our voices in the car with my two boys during the summer of 2009 which ended in my eldest boy passing away at 15 years old. It was my favorite song at the time and his also. It will always have a special place in my heart as I can still listen to it and hear him singing along in my mind. Thank you @Jason Mraz for creating some amazing memories for me and my other son to cherish for the rest of our lives. <3

Have you had any interrupted dreams? If so you will understand my story. I am a wife, mother, wife, friend and dreamer, and I lost the scholarship I had in college, I got sick and lost my job. I did this online job to dream again. Help me, I know that I will have new opportunities. Do not let my dream die

The love you have for both your listeners and the Universal Power, is abundantly apparent in everything you do. I've been a changed woman ever since listening to what you have to share with us and as grateful as you are to all of us, mirror it back to you and yours and MAYBE you'll see how grateful and blessed we are for having you. ?????

I am grateful to have your beautiful music in my heart. Therapy for my soul as I said to you once a few years back just before a concert during rehearsal. This love for you will follow me until I leave this beautiful life. Thank you God for you Jason. ❤❤❤ can't wait for your next visit at the Beat 92.5 in Montreal.
