" All About Jason Mraz "


J a s o n M r a z


Jason Mraz - Biography


Singer/songwriter Jason Mraz hails from Mechanicsville, VA, where he grew up as a fan of the Dave Matthews Band and local roots musicians the Agents of Good Roots. But it was Mraz's interest and participation in musical theater that was his first introduction to music. Mraz moved to New York following high school to attend the American Musical and Dramatic Academy but dropped out a year later when he took up the guitar and began to focus on songwriting. Nonetheless, Mraz's training as a vocalist would show itself on his debut album which is marked by the pure clarity and range of his vocals.


After busking around New York, Mraz eventually returned to Virginia; but, in 1999, he ultimately made his way West, settling in San Diego, CA, known for its coffeehouse scene and support of singer/songwriters, most notably Jewel. Mraz began playing local shops and landed a weekly slot at local hot-spot Java Joe's. At the same time, Mraz met drummer Toca Rivera and the two began performing together — Mraz on acoustic guitar, Rivera on djembe — honing a live show that featured as much comedic banter between the two as music.




Over the next two years, Mraz's following grew outside of San Diego to Los Angeles, garnering the attention of record labels. In early 2002, Mraz signed to Elektra Records and returned to Virginia to write and record his debut album, working with producer John AlagĂ­a (the Dave Matthews Band, John Mayer) and his high school heroes, the Agents of Good Roots, as his backing band. The resulting effort, Waiting for My Rocket to Come, was released in November of 2002. The album blends Mraz's early influences and coming-of-age by combining country and roots rock with the poeticism of coffeehouse folk, elements of jazz, and the rhythmic charge of hip-hop.





Well, you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but your so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks, now I'm tryin to get back
before the cool done run out I'll be givin it my best test
and nothin's gonna stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some

But I won't hesitate no more,
no more, it cannot wait
I'm yours

Well open up your mind and see like me
open up your plans and damn you're free
look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
listen to the music of the moment people dance and sing
We're just one big family
And it's our godforsaken right to be loved loved loved loved loved

So, i won't hesitate no more,
no more, it cannot wait i'm sure
there's no need to complicate our time is short
this is our fate
I'm yours

Scooch on over closer, dear
And I will nibble your ear

I've been spendin' way too long checkin' my tongue in the mirror
and bendin' over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
and so I drew a new face and I laughed
I guess what I'd be sayin' is there ain't no better reason
to rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons
it's what we aim to do
our name is our virtue

But I won't hesitate no more,
no more it cannot wait
I'm yours

Well open up your mind and see like me
open up your plans and damn you're free
look into your heart and you will find that the sky is yours

so please don't, please don't, please don't,
there's no need to complicate,
Cause our time is short
This, this, this is our fate,
I'm yours

" alejandro manzano " boyceavenue


b o y c e a v e n u e

Boyce Avenue, a Florida-based band popular for its strong acoustic roots and melodic rock sound, consists of the three brothers Alejandro, Fabian, and Daniel Manzano, and good friend Stephen Hatker.


hot, hot, hot, slurp

Alejandro Manzano is really a multi-talented musician he sung songs from his heart the emotion that he is putting in every song he sings what makes the songs hypnotic.He's such a whole package his got the talent, the looks ( i can't deny he is such a very good looking guy) & the style that makes him a true artist.I'm just wandering if he has no girlfriend because in my opinion he looks like a womanizer.I hope not!:)

He’s the uber hot Alejandro Manzano, lead singer of Boyce Avenue, a Florida-based harmony-driven rock band. Alejandro’s acoustic and piano takes on some pop songs like Leona Lewis’ Bleeding Love, Chris Brown’s With You and Jordin Sparks’ No Air, among others, made him an instant hit on youtube.

Boyce Avenue consists of Alejandro, his two brothers Fabian (yummy too!) and Daniel plus their friend Steve Hatker.

They just released their first album “All You’re Meant To Be” last March with singles “Find Me” a song that became a finalist in the Pop Category for the USA Songwriting Competition and “All the While” which was a semi-finalist in the 2007 International Songwriting Competition.

Here are Alejandro’s versions of some songs.

WITH YOU BY CHRIS BROWN

BLEEDING LOVE BY LEONA LEWIS

NO AIR BY JORDIN SPARKS

POCKETFUL OF SUNSHINE BY NATASHA BEDINGFIELD

SHADOW OF THE DAY BY LINKIN PARK

" You & Me " cover by boyceavenue


You And Me

boyceavenue

What day is it
And in what month
This clock never seemed so alive
I can't keep up and I can't back down
I've been losing so much time

Cause it's you and me and all of the people
With nothing to do, nothing to lose
And it's you and me and all of the people and
I don't know why I can't keep my eyes off of you

All of the things that I want to say
Just aren't coming out right
I'm tripping on words, you got my head spinning
I don't know where to go from here

Cause it's you and me and all of the people
With nothing to do, nothing to prove
And it's you and me and all of the people and
I don't know why I can't keep my eyes off you

Something about you now
I can't quite figure out
Everything she does is beautiful
Everything she does is right

Cause it's you and me and all of the people
With nothing to do, nothing to lose
And it's you and me and all of the people and
I don't know why I can't keep my eyes off of

You and me and all of the people
With nothing to do, nothing to prove and
It's you and me and all of the people and
I don't know why I can't keep my eyes off of you

What day is it
And in what month
This clock never seemed so alive 

" No Air "cover by boyceavenue

No Air
boyceavenue

If I should die before I wake
It's cause you took my breath away
Losing you is like livin in a world with no air

I'm here alone didn't wanna leave
My heart won't move it's incomplete
Wish there was a way that I could make you understand

HOOK
But how do you expect me
To live alone with just me
Cause my world revolves around you it's so hard for me to breathe

CHORUS
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air
Can't live can't breathe with no air
It's how I feel whenever you aint there
Theres no air no air

Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gone breathe without me
If you aint here I just can't breathe
Theres no air no air
No air air x4


I walked I ran I jumped I flew
Right off the ground to float to you
Theres no gravity to hold me down for real


But somehow I'm still alive inside
You took my breath but I survived
I don't know how but I don't even care

HOOK
But how do you expect me
To live alone with just me
Cause my world revolves around you it's so hard for me to breathe

CHORUS
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air
Can't live can't breathe with no air
It's how I feel whenever you aint there
Theres no air no air

Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gone breathe without me
If you aint here I just can't breathe
Theres no air no air
