MrazWomen Update: This blog might not be as active as before, but our online friendship is as strong as ever!

I know, I know...some of you might not see the point of posting entries on this blog since we all already chat on Twitter and on Facebook (you have to message me to be added to the private group), but I can't help but feel a bit emotional (weepy even) when I realize that this is where it all started.

This blog brought us together in the first place.

For those of you active in the FB group and those of you who are not on FB but are on Twitter, I hope that you don't completely disregard the positive effects our blog posts have on MrazWomen such as ourselves, just because we have other portals in place. We have so many experiences to share--both good and bad--to other people and this is one of many ways to reach out to other like-minded folks.  For some, this is a fantastic and truly inspiring thing...imagine having a collection of friends you can talk to about anything and not being afraid of being yourself!  Only through the internet.

To encourage and inspire current members to post more and to encourage and inspire new gals to join our little online family of wonderful women, I shall post more on this blog.

I miss hearing from all of you!

Be love,
Jam

Amy's top 5 (non mraz) favorite songs right now at this moment.

1. Andy Grammer "Lunitic"

This guy has a really awesome sound. I love listening to this song in the car.. .I sing along to it and just about every single song on this album makes me just happy.

My favorite line of the song is

"You can do this, you can do this
You are not a lunatic
Crazy would be changing your mind"

2. Matt Nathanson "At the end of the world"

 

I love love love love love love love Matt Nathanson. He is seriously right up there with Mraz. I have never seen him live but I would give anything to do so! I am obsessed with youtuve vidoes of him. His shows look like so much fun and he is freakin hilarious. Anyway.. his new album Modern Love.. is just perfect in every way. This song is awesome. It was hard to pick just one for a current favorite..

"if the sun don't light
and the night won't turn
we'll get a room at the end of the world
and we'll rewrite all the wrongs we've learned
safe in our room at the end of the world"
Oh my goodness.. I just love him!

3. The Weepies "Gotta have you"

This is seriously one of my favorite songs of all time. Its so beautiful. They know how to write a song.  I am so happy they are playing local next month and I am going to try so hard to see them.   I need to post the lyrics to the whole song because I love it so much.

"Gotta Have You"

Gray, quiet and tired and mean
Picking at a worried seam
I try to make you mad at me over the phone.
Red eyes and fire and signs
I'm taken by a nursery rhyme
I want to make a ray of sunshine and never leave home

No amount of coffee, no amount of crying
No amount of whiskey, no amount of wine
No, no, no, no, no,
nothing else will do
I've gotta have you, I've gotta have you.

The road gets cold, there's no spring in the meadow this year
I'm the new chicken clucking open hearts and ears
Oh, such a prima donna, sorry for myself
But green, it is also summer
And I won't be warm 'til I'm lying in your arms

No amount of coffee, no amount of crying
No amount of whiskey, no amount of wine
No, no, no, no, no
Nothing else will do
I've gotta have you, I've gotta have you

I see it all through a telescope: guitar, suitcase, and a warm coat
Lying in the back of the blue boat, humming a tune...hmmmmmmm

No amount of coffee, no amount of crying
No amount of whiskey, no wine
No, no, no, no, no
Nothing else will do
I've gotta have you, I've gotta have

No amount of coffee, no amount of crying
No amount of whiskey, no amount of wine
No, no, no, no, no
Nothing else will do
I've gotta have you, I've gotta have you.

I've gotta have you, gotta have you
I've gotta have you

4. Plain White T's- Map of the world.

I was never a big fan of this band.. but decided to get this album anyway.. it is really good. This song has some really good lyrics and I love singing along to it.

The wind comes through singing the blues
but where do I fit in
The autumn trees dance with the breeze
but where do I fit in

Am I a dot on the map of the world
Just a spot on the map of the world
When I imagine the whole universe
Oh, where do I fit in

Wish I made it, wish I might
find some answers here tonight
Tell me, is there something out there

5. Matt Nathanson "Faster"

I really wish this song was written about me.  Just listen.. you will know why.

"You're so delicious
you're so soft
sweet on the tip of my tongue
you taste like sunlight
and strawberry bubble gum

you bite my lip
you spike my blood
you make my heart beat faster"

What are your top 5 current favorite songs!?

This blog has been a ghost town lately...

We need to change that.

I'm fixing to post a series of blogs, reviewing this band that I have come to love, called

Me & Mr. Cassidy.

If you're a superfan of Jason and the Makepeace Brothers, and all of them, then you probably know who I'm talking about.

I was asked by Hope Leigh Rollins, the "Me" in said band to review their new album, and gladly I said yes.

So, I'd appreciate the feedback on the blogs.

Thanks girls. <3

This is what I look like today...

and I'm trying not to pull out my hair.

My name is Courtney, I live in Commack, NY. I have 15 years upon this earth and I love Jason Mraz. My twitter is Castaway23. 

So, I got the invite to join this actually a few months ago but it is just now that I learned how to do so. Yeah, I'm technologically un-inclined. I presume that i shall tell you a bit about myself, here goes it:

I am a girl.

I play bass guitar.

I play regular guitar.

I love to skateboard.

I love to play football.

I love Jason Mraz.

I love Green Day.

I am an English nerd.

I love life.

I am very religious.

I love making new friends.

I am a very deep thinker.

Richie Betanzos is someone I care about very much, he is like a big brother to me.

If you want to get to know me, I am an open book. :D

I first encountered the wonderful music stylings of Jason Mraz in 2008 with I'm Yours. It was right before my brothers wedding and it brings back amazing memories. i remained stagnant in his music for quite awhile. Last December I started following him on twitter and ran into FreshnessFactorFivethousand.blogspot.com It changed my life, the posts 23 Skidoo and Now's Here Resolutions. After realizing how amazing of a person he is, I delved into his music head first and am so happy to have his music in my life. His wordplay is what I appreciate most. My favorite songs by him are Mr. Curiosity and Gypsy MC.

Jason Mraz has changed my life for the better.

Nice to meet you guys,

Courtney =)
