"It was a very bizarre experience for me, to get the songs together, go in there, and try to deliver them as I would perhaps in a live setting. But I realized that I couldn't take on that coffeehouse style that I came from and go in there and burn it up"
- Jason Mraz
About this Quote
This quote by Jason Mraz speaks with the trouble of transitioning from a live performance setting to a studio recording. He speaks about the challenge of trying to provide the tunes in the very same way he would in a live setting, but understanding that he couldn't take on the coffeehouse design he was used to. This suggests that the studio environment was more limiting which he had to change his efficiency to fit the recording. It was a strange experience for him, as he was used to the flexibility of a live performance, and needed to adjust to the more structured environment of the studio. He was also aware that he could not simply "burn it up" in the studio, as he would in a live setting, and needed to change his performance accordingly. This quote talks to the difficulty of transitioning from a live efficiency to a studio recording, and the requirement to adjust one's performance to fit the environment.
