Mraz remaking Billboard history
Chillax hippie musician Jason Mraz makes history with 71-week chart run of "I'm Yours." The hit song with a reggae feel to it could be around longer in the Billboard Hot 100 chart as Mraz released the song as a single.
In a phone interview published on Yahoo Music Mraz said, "The song was really born into the crowd... I noticed almost an immediate response to it and people really celebrated in a different way during that song."
"And now of course, that we've been playing with people really owning it on the record, it's taken it to a whole new level," he added.
"I'm Yours" has been conquering the airwaves since it first charted in May 2008 bumping off LeAnn Rimes' "How Do I Live" in the spot. Other accolades of the song include a Song of the Year nod in this year's Grammy Awards.
For more on Mraz watchout for the release of Beautiful Mess - Live from Earth on November 10. The material is a documentary of his two-year road promotions of the platinum-selling album "We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things."
