You Might Like ItJason Mraz

Jason Mraz – You Might Like It (Official Lyric Video)

Jason Mraz’s new track “You Might Like It” will surely be a source of support for young people trying to emerge from the long tunnel of entrance exam studies.

Set to an energizing folk-rock rhythm that sparks motivation, it sings about the possibility of becoming who you want to be and the courage and effort it takes to get there.

Yet it never feels pushy; there’s a certain tenderness in his voice that helps you relax.

The song is included on his eighth album, “Mystical Magical Rhythmical Radical Ride,” and the chorus—especially the line suggesting that if you keep moving toward your dream, you might even come to love the journey—will be a true encouragement.
