Jason Mraz - Welcome to Schubas (Medley)

[@TheJTEXP]

Wow!! I have been a fan for about 14 years!! This melody has been my favorite. I have over 100 live shows from the archive but this one, which really is an Album "song" even though it's live. I have listened to it over and over.. learned every song on the guitar and it's still my favorite!! Nothing beats him live! It's unbelievable that you posted it.. many times I have had my headphones on or it playing in my car but I never had a visual.... now I do Thank you so much for this post! Got me through many, many dark times!!!

[@allie1570]

yay for this! i was there for this too and recording was VERY prohibited (because of selections obviously), i know some of us got some sneaky clips but this is awesome, thanks for sharing!!!

[@agotcabriga2696]

To see the video of this great piece is super cool.

[@julianchan23]

My favourite Album in the world! Thank you for uploading the video!!!!!!! I genuinely hope that you got God Rests in Reason this video

[@Mijadi1987]

I just realized I never answered you! I don't have the video myself, but someone posted most of that Montalvo show including a bunch from Selections for Friends and others that didn't make the album. Here's God Rests is Reason: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bauooJ-Od5WbmZYm19s

[@Mijadi1987]

There's also an amazing medley from the beginning of that show. It's similar to this, but this one has Running, so I'm glad he picked this one :) The other is certainly worth a listen though: kzbin.info/www/bejne/boK5dK1ohNtmhLc

[@amandafeliciano542]

Holy God there's video!!! I don't care how the audio sounds, I've heard the audio 7 million times at least, to seeee it is AMRAZING!

[@BratRogi]

I'm watching synced with the official audio, takes time to get it right, but I recommend it. Thanks for the video!!!

[@mauricezhu]

Took some time to overlay the actual album audio. Check it out! kzbin.info/www/bejne/d5ykaK2Gbc2XeZY

[@Mijadi1987]

You're welcome! Yeah, I tried that when I first found this too. It's fun watching that way :)

[@Mijadi1987]

Thanks! That makes it easier haha

[@lahabla]

this is gold - been looking for this (or even any snippets from the rest of the concert, for that matter) for the longest time. thank you so much for sharing this!

[@veroniquechenaut5246]

Thank you very much for this sublime sharing, see it finally, I listened to this audio that I love....😍

[@ferdtows9515]

Who would imagine after all these years that there was a footage of the greatest performance of Jason Mraz? This is my favorite Mraz "song" too. This version of Spinning is awesome. Thank you Mijadi1987! As you said you are accepting requests, versions of Fine Dining, Hey Love, Strange are welcomed. There was a performance of Hey Love a while ago here on KZbin, from 2002 I think... It was just perfect, great audio, HD video. But the video has been removed =/

[@Mijadi1987]

You're very welcome!! Those are great songs you mentioned. When it comes to Fine Dining, there's unfortunately no audio that I know of other than what's pretty much the 1st page of youtube results for "Jason Mraz Fine Dining". I assume you know the original Lestat's version well. You can download that show here if you don't have it and want the lossless audio of it: archive.org/details/jmraz2004-04-15.jb3.shnf. He actually played it at the shows he recorded for the Selections for Friends album, so it could've been on that like this medley was. I wish we could hear the entirety of those shows in live album quality audio since they have fantastic setlists. Oh well. If you haven't heard the Montalvo Winery version it's in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bauooJ-Od5WbmZY As for Hey Love and Strange, there's a little more to work with. Wait, there was an HD VIDEO of Hey Love from 2002?! Do you know the venue? I don't have a ton as far as rare Mraz video goes (ooh, just thought of 1 to upload though haha), but maybe I have or could find the audio of that version. I'll see if I can upload a version or two of it soon. In the meantime you can hear the one I already uploaded from 2000. It's great audio and probably the first performance of it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4Otmot7fpiahtk Also, here's another cool version in the same sorta style as the Homemade album: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oYGrZKSMr7tom6s With Strange you likely know the Homemade version best. The 9:30 Club version from 2000 is good and has Greg Gerson on the flute. It appears to be the only other version on KZbin at the moment. There used to be a solo version at Borders on youtube that I loved, despite only fair audio quality. I have the audio of that still, but I may upload a couple other gems instead. I recommend to you and anyone else to search archive.org to find a bunch of great versions of most of his songs, including several old or rare ones that aren't on youtube (or more commonly only have a couple versions on youtube). Then you can own lossless audio of a vast collection of Mraz songs/shows (and many other artists). With all that said, I do have a great audio version of Hey Love and Strange that ISN'T on archive or youtube -- yet....

[@brunoaybar2770]

The "yet" at the end of your comment got you a new subscriber ;)

[@Mijadi1987]

Thanks haha. They're coming soon along with that video that I thought of. It's overwhelming trying to figure out what to upload next. There are just so many that I love! I'm quite behind the times with technology (long story there), so sometimes I can get stuck or sorta ocd when it comes to making new uploads from windows movie maker, picking or finding pictures, writing descriptions, etc. At the end of the day, getting the songs posted so people can hear them is way more important to me than making some fancy slideshow with effects and stuff, or scouring the internet or my collection for the "perfect" pic or pics to go along with it. If you have any other rare Mraz requests, let me know and I'll put them near the front of the line of "stuff to share" if I have it. On that note, I think I'll upload something now ;)

[@mauricezhu]

Thanks, Mijadi1987, for surfacing such a rare video! I took some time to overlay the actual album audio over the footage. Check it out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d5ykaK2Gbc2XeZY

[@Julie56762]

thank you soooo so much for uploading this !!!

[@Mijadi1987]

You're welcome to everyone!! Samia, you were a Long Drive driver?! You're so lucky! Your video made me smile. It was so cute when you got emotional near the end :)

[@CIIZARmusic]

It's so amazing that you really have a video of that xD... I'm listening to that medley the whole week now and want to find out how to play it. I'm not seeing the chords here, but it's still refreshing to see him perform this awesome piece. I'm actually working on a Tribute-Gig... I'm in the middle of learning up to 25 songs from him, which I want to play live on stages. I learned so much from him, and I still am learning. With each song I learn to play and sing another lesson seems to come with it. It's almost scary ^^... And BTW: not that besides him writing awesome songs, another motivation to do that is that seemingly he is not coming to Germany for a while. And this to some degree helps me cope with the time I have to wait to see him live... Sorry for writing so much ^^... hope you have a blessed day. Looking forward to more uploads... You are a treasure.

[@Mijadi1987]

Thank you so much for your kind words

[@Mijadi1987]

Hey, I was randomly looking through comments and I saw yours. I really hope you got to see him recently!! I just remembered he was playing Europe around now, but I had forgotten which month.

[@papak1804]

Awesome! I've seen the Montalvo version out there but never the Schuba's. Any other oldies you share are much appreciated!

[@ChrysalysMoon]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I listen to this album multiple times almost daily!! Now IF ONLY I could find a full, complete video of the Montalvo performance, my heart would be complete! I just don't know why it took me 2 years to find this! TY! TY! TY!

[@Mijadi1987]

chrysalys64 You’re very welcome!!Actually I knew about that first. I can find the medley at least and the channel that uploaded a bunch including the stuff that made Selections for Friends. Give me a sec😉

[@Mijadi1987]

chrysalys64 kzbin.info/www/bejne/boK5dK1ohNtmhLc That’s a similarly awesome medley from Montalvo. The video quality isn’t amazing but this guy uploaded pretty much the whole show! When I mentioned oddly titled I was referring to this exact schuba’s medley video. When I found it somehow, it made no mention of Jason. It sounded legal or something and has the word settlement in it I think. Really random lol. Idk how they expected people to find it and it probably still only has like 50 views. Glad they recorded it though 😊

[@Kakashikewl]

Damn, you're missing the best part, the one where he sang I Will Surive by Gloria for the only time ever. But You Make Me High is also such a superb song... He no longer sings it.

[@jooleearnold]

My bestie uploaded probably the only version of him singing “I Will Survive” at this show on another account somewhere. It was a sneaky video so it’s not a full version but I love it so much. 😅❤

[@hectormiralda2900]

Wait, is this the ACTUAL live footage from Selections for Friends?! If so, that's so awesome!

[@Mijadi1987]

Hector Miralda indeed it is ;)
