I'm Yours...Is Everyone's!

One of the most popular tunes on 94.9 WHOM (and everywhere) is “I’m Yours” by Jason Mraz. The story of how it became a hit is intriguing.

The song was released more than a year or two ago. For whatever reason, people across the country and the world began to videotape their OWN version of the song. Hundreds of these amateur singers then uploaded their cover of Jason’s tune onto You Tube. Jason and his record label stumbled onto this phenomenon…and a light went off!

Maybe…just MAYBE….this is a hit song. Not the usual fare for Top 40 radio in 2008, it went to #1 nonetheless-and was #1 at 94.9 WHOM as well.

Below is a live version of the song by Jason Mraz himself…of course, you can also check out the OTHER renditions as well! Enjoy!
