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

Jason Mraz’s “You Might Like It” is a feel-good track from his eighth album, Mystical Magical Rhythmical Radical Ride.

In particular, the chorus carries a message like: “Chasing your dreams is tough, but if you keep at it, you might just grow to love that dream—so give it a try.” It’s the kind of message that will put your mind at ease when you feel like giving up.

Combined with its upbeat vibe, this song makes it feel like good things will come if you keep working toward your dreams while listening to it.

“Be Who You Are” by American singer Jon Batiste is an uplifting track whose title message—“be yourself just as you are”—gives you energy.

It’s also appealing because it features collaborations with many artists, including the multinational five-member girl group from South Korea, NewJeans, and the American rapper J.

The moment when the song switches to Korean lyrics by NewJeans partway through is especially irresistible! The sudden blend of Korean within the English lyrics is unexpectedly comfortable, and that intriguing sound naturally lifts your spirits.
