In turn I would give his first album an A, his second a B, his third maybe a C- and this song maybe a C+ or B-. I'm a bit surprised you'd call his third album his best though it seems most of us that know of his first do like it so we can at least all agree there. ;)

I'm a bit surprised you'd call his third album his best though it seems most of us that know of his first do like it so we can at least all agree there. ;) The production is what won me over with regard to "We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things." It just glistens from beginning to end and has a lot of intriguing textures. It's great feel-good mood music that coruscates. You have horns on a few tracks and a variety of string instruments on others, as well as a flute on "Butterfly". Mraz's lyrics on the album are mostly nonsensical and irritating at times (exceptions being "Love for a Child", "Details in the Fabric" and "If It Kills Me", with "I'm Yours" also agreeable to my ears) but the production takes command and so I find it easy not to have the weaker lyrics dwell on my mind as I listen and just tend to filter them out. Namaste, lisping HIBISCUS

I will admit that Details In The Fabric is the standout track from the album. One of my overall favourites from him.

I heard this song the radio today but it's remixed a bit. I didn't know there was a radio remix for the song. A bit livelier. I hope it's the version that appears on the album.
