day 16 - a song that you used to love but now hate

I'm Yours - Jason Mraz

This was the version I like better.

Four years ago, I happened to like this song from Mr. A-Z called I’m Yours. It was the time when not everyone knew about it yet, and it was still played on acoustics. I totally think it’s better than the 2009 version which already has drums and everything. I was quite a big fan of Jason Mraz because of his awesome play on words, thus the song Wordplay also from him. I used to be head over heels in love with his songs back in high school. Some tunes that I liked from him are: You and I Both, The Remedy, Sleep All Day, Melt with You and Beautiful Mess. Sad to say I got over my Jason Mraz addiction now. On a second thought, I still am a fan but not that much anymore.

I’ll let you in a little mushy revelation about the song I’m Yours. It used to be me and my boyfriend’s love song. Yeah, I know it’s corny but spare me of your loathing pretty please. Back then, this song was played on only one radio station in Davao – 99.5 Monster Radio (which is gone now). Monster used to play it once a week or less, because only a few people were requesting it. But when its rival station, 89.1 Killer Bee, released the band version in 2009, everybody went gaga over it. The moment I heard it being played by other “maka-masa” radio stations in town, I gave it an instant aversion. As I said before, I just completely hate songs that are way too mainstream.

Sixteen songs down. Fourteen more to go! Two weeks more for 30 Day Song Challenge. I can't wait to begin my 30 Day List Challenge.
